Novel Ni/ZnO – HZSM-5 adsorbents were synthesized by incipient wetness impregnation. The Ni/ZnO – HZSM-5 adsorbent can achieve deep desulfurization and olefin aromatization at the same time. Thiophene sulfur was removed from 495 to less than 10 ppm via reactive adsorption desulfurization (RADS). Olefins were also converted into aromatics. HZSM-5 did not only support adsorbents but also cooperated with active Ni sites to catalyze olefins into aromatic hydrocarbons. Aromatization of 1-pentene, 2-pentene, 2-methyl-2-butene, and 1-hexene on adsorbents was investigated. The adsorbents were characterized by the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, X-ray diffraction, temperature-programmed reduction, and temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia and thermogravimetric analysis. The experimental results showed that strong acids on the adsorbent disappeared after HZSM-5 loaded active metal sites, and almost no coke was generated on adsorbents in RADS.

K 2 Zn 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] 2 @ Ni-P (KNiP) composites with high cesium selectivity were synthesized for the first time. Nickel phosphorus (NiP) was used as a solid base for the adsorption of K 2 Zn 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] 2 (KZnHCF). The synthesized KNiP composites were characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD , VSM and BET. The characteristic results demonstrated that the composites possess a ball-shape structure, a large surface area of 305.031 m 2 /g and high saturation magnetization of 2.95 emu/g. The ICP-OES analyser was used to determine the concentration of ions in this study. KNiP showed good cesium adsorption performance over a wide pH range and high selectivity for cesium over coexistent competing ions. Analysis of dynamics showed that KNiP has good adsorption performance toward cesium, with an adsorption capacity of 54.95 mg/g. Equilibrium was achieved within only two hours and the experimental data fit the Pseudo second-order model, indicating that the adsorption process was chemisorption . The adsorption process followed the Freundlich isotherm model, indicating that it mainly occured on a heterogeneous surface.

Morphology-controlled synthesis of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) is of tremendous importance to understand the morphology–structure–property relationships. Although great emphasis has been placed on the controllable synthesis of MOFs, the preparation of hollow and nanoframe-like MOFs, especially using the microwave irradiation method, remains a great challenge. In the present work, we report microwave-assisted synthesis of hollow butterfly and ring zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) with the stimuli of Ni ions. Interestingly, the sphere, butterfly, and fiber ZIF-8 catalysts were also fabricated when adjusting the weight ratio of Zn and Ni resources. Specifically, sphere, butterfly, hollow butterfly, and ring particles have maintained the ZIF-8 structure. On the basis of the time sequential experiments, we inferred that the formation of hollow butterfly and ring particles is driven by the change of surface energy. The Knoevenagel reaction was carried out to explore the catalytic activity of these ZIF materials. The ring particles with ZIF-8 structure showed the highest catalytic activity. The open structure, thin walls, and the amount of basicity have been extensively discussed to shed light on the superior catalytic performance of ring particles.

Chemical looping reforming (CLR) technique is a prospective option for hydrogen production. Improving oxygen mobility and sintering resistance are still the main challenges of the development of high-performance oxygen carriers (OCs) in the CLR process. This paper explores the performance of Ni/CeO2nanorod (NR) as an OC in CLR of ethanol. Various characterization methods such as N2adsorption-desorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectra, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), H2temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), and H2chemisorption were utilized to study the properties of fresh OCs. The characterization results show the Ni/CeO2-NR possesses high Ni dispersion, abundant oxygen vacancies, and strong metal-support interaction. The performance of prepared OCs was tested in a packed-bed reactor. H2selectivity of 80% was achieved by Ni/CeO2-NR in 10-cycle stability test. The small particle size and abundant oxygen vacancies contributed to the water gas shift reaction, improving the catalytic activity. The covered interfacial Ni atoms closely anchored on the underlying surface oxygen vacancies on the (111) facets of CeO2-NR, enhancing the anti-sintering capability. Moreover, the strong oxygen mobility of CeO2-NR also effectively eliminated surface coke on the Ni particle surface.Keywords:chemical looping reforming;hydrogen;oxygen carrier;CeO2;nanorod

A Ni-based cage-like C–SiO 2 –Al 2 O 3 (Ni/CL-CSA) catalyst was synthesized successfully via a facile dual-templating method and used for the hydrotreatment of phenol. The catalyst was characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, TG and N 2 adsorption techniques. Results show that Ni/CL-CSA has three-dimensional connected macroporous structure with pore size of about 100 nm and ordered mesoporous windows with average pore size of approximately 3.8 nm. Size of nickel particle is 6.1 nm. BET surface area of the catalyst is 212 m 2 /g and pore volume is 0.24 cm 3 /g. Hydrogenation and the stability performance of the catalyst was studied for bio-oil model compound phenol. Results reveal that adding macropores into Ni-based mesoporous C–SiO 2 –Al 2 O 3 (Ni/MP-CSA) can improve the mass transfer rate and reduce the particles growth, thus improve the catalytic activities in the hydrotreatment of phenol, reducing catalyst sintering at high temperature and improving the stability of the catalyst.

Graphical Blowing off steam : This paper describes a new approach of designing Cu−Ni bimetallic catalytic systems for dimethyl ether/methanol steam reforming. The Cu−Ni system exhibits an interesting alloy-mediated selectivity of CO and CH 4 , thereby producing hydrogen-rich reformates with an ultra-low CO concentration (<1000 ppm), which could be commercially potential for fuel cells. Steam reforming of simple oxygenated hydrocarbons without C−C bonds is suitable for small-scale decentralized H 2 production for fuel cells. However, the relatively high CO concentration in H 2 -rich reformates produced by traditional Cu-based catalysts will poison the Pt-based anode in fuel cells. Here, we describe a new approach to the design of Cu−Ni bimetallic catalysts based on nickel-phyllosilicate for steam reforming of dimethyl ether (DME). With the tunable formation of the Cu−Ni alloy, we can modulate the selectivity of CO and CH 4 in steam reforming and achieve H 2 -rich reformates with an ultra-low concentration of CO (below 1000 ppm). This process only requires simple and low-energy purification pretreatments to meet the requirements of commercial fuel cells. Mechanistic studies reveal that the Cu−Ni alloy can adsorb CO, particularly at high temperatures, and simultaneously suppress CO dissociation to methane.

Ni/TiO2catalysts with different morphologies (granular, sheet, tubular and spherical) were prepared. Hydrogen was generated from ethanol aqueous-phase reforming over Ni/TiO2in a water-ethanol-m-chloronitrobenzene reaction system and directly applied intom-chloronitrobenzene catalytic hydrogenation. Thereby, in-situ liquid-phase hydrogenation ofm-chloronitrobenzene over Ni/TiO2without addition of molecular hydrogen was successful. Compared with granular, sheet and spherical Ni/TiO2, the nanotubular Ni/TiO2prepared from one-step hydrothermal reaction had larger specific surface area, smaller and uniformly-distributed pore sizes and more Lewis acid sites. In-situ liquid-phase hydrogenation ofm-chloronitrobenzene experiments showed the nanotubular Ni/TiO2had the highest catalytic activity, which was ascribed to both catalyst morphology and acid sites. Firstly, the nanotubular structure endowed the catalysts with a nanoscale confinement effect and thereby high catalytic performance. Secondly, the Lewis acid sites not only accelerated water–gas shift reaction, enhancing the ethanol aqueous-phase reforming activity for hydrogen generation, but also promoted the adsorption and hydrogenation of –NO2on the active sites of the catalysts.Keywords:Ni/TiO2;morphology effect;in-situ hydrogenation;aqueous-phase reforming;m-chloronitrobenzene

Wire-in-tube and tube-in-tube structures have been prepared using single-spinneret electrospinning method through adjusting the preparation parameters of precursors and subsequent calcined process. Cobalt ferrite (CoFe 2 O 4 ) samples revealed wire-in-tube morphology using a Co/Fe molar ratio of 1/2. In the case of other a Co/Fe molar ratio, belt and porous fiber morphologies were created. Manganese ferrite (MnFe 2 O 4 ) sample exhibited tube-in-tube structure while nickel ferrite (NiFe 2 O 4 ) sample just exhibited tube structure. Because of no template in electrospun polymer composite nanofibers , the precursor diffusion process during calcination plays an important role for morphology controlling. The magnetic properties of samples were examined. The cobalt ferrite (CoFe 2 O 4 ) wire-in-tube sample revealed the highest saturation magnetization (60 emu/g). After growing with AlOOH on the surface, CoFe 2 O 4 wire-in-tube sample revealed a high efficiency for the removal of Congo red pollutant. These nanostructures are particularly attractive for use in the field of nano-fluidic and nano-energy harvesting devices.

The preparation of ultrathin Ni layer onto the surface of glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by molecule anchoring method was studied in this paper in which two steps were involved: molecule anchoring (GCE-M) and ultrathin Ni layer adsorption (GCE-M-Ni). The result showed that by simply anchoring some molecules (purpald, bismuthiol I, DPTA, EDTA-2Na, ferrotitanium and thiourea) onto the surface of GCE, the adsorption of Ni layer would be improved relatively, thus improving the electrocatalytic ability of GCE toward sucrose, fructose and glucose. It was believed that the anchoring of these molecules helped the following adsorption of Ni layer. Good electrocatalytic characteristics for sugars oxidation of GCE-purpald-Ni were observed in this work with the immediate response, wide linear range from 0 μ M to 800 μ M and low detection limit down to 0.49 μ M for the sensing of total sugar (TS) concentration. The common interfering molecule such as ascorbic acid was proved of no interfering effect on the detection. Also, GCE-purpald-Ni was successfully applied to detect TS concentration in orange juice samples with high recovery rate of more than 85%. It is concluded that the molecule anchoring method can be used to the adsorption of ultrathin Ni layer onto the surface of GCE and works as one of the promising nonenzymatic sensings toward sugars.

Microwave absorption materials with great reflection loss and wide absorption band that can provide electromagnetic waves (EMWs) absorption with minimal thickness are highly desirable, particularly when they could be controllably fabricated through a facile process. Herein, N-doped three-dimensional (3D) carbonaceous composites with highly dispersed nickel nanoparticles (N-SA/Ni-X, X = 3%, 6%, 9%) were successfully prepared by a facile one-step encapsulation process and carbonization. The performance of the absorber has a significant enhancement due to the introduction of nitrogen elements into a carbon network for controlling the dispersion and size distribution of Ni nanoparticles. When a 6% Ni2+ mass percentage was used, the maximum reflection loss (RL) could reach −42.2 dB at 9.8 GHz. Moreover, the effective absorption (below −10 dB) bandwidth can be increased by 2.3 GHz, from 8.5 to 10.8 GHz, with the absorber thickness of only 2 mm, and it can be tuned from 2.8 to 14.4 GHz by adjusting the thickness from 1.5 to 5 mm. The excellent electromagnetic-wave-absorbing performance could be assigned to the combinatorial advantages of the lightweight conductive porous network with favorable dielectric loss and magnetic loss features induced by highly dispersed Ni nanoparticles. These newly fabricated N-SA/Ni-X composites could be regarded as promising candidates for lightweight and high-performance microwave absorption materials.

Sodium borosilicate(Na 2 O-B 2 O 3 -SiO 2 , NBS) glass doped with Ni nanoparticles has been successfully prepared by a sol-gel technique combined with atmosphere control method. Thermal gravimetric (TG) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) are used to study the feasibility formation mechanism from the xerogel to densified NBS glass network. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) as well as X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) analysis reveal that the cubic structure of metal Ni with uniform spherical shape has formed in the NBS glass matrix. The average size is determined to be 11.85 nm. In particular, a mechanism for the formation of Ni/NBS glass is proposed based on the microstructure, BET analysis and N 2 adsorption aperture curve. At last, nonlinear optical properties of Ni/NBS glass are investigated by using the Z-scan technique with a Ti:Sapphire laser at 800 nm. Results illustrate that the third-order optical nonlinear susceptibility χ (3) of the glass reaches to 5.51 × 10 −12 esu.
