文摘Effective lattice oxygen(Olatt)activation at low temperatures has long been a challenge in catalytic oxidation reactions.Traditional thermal catalytic soot combustion,even with Pt/Pd catalysts,is inefficient at exhaust temperatures below 200℃,particularly under conditions of frequent idling.Herein,we report an effective strategy utilizing non-thermal plasma(NTP)to activate Olatt in Ce_(1–x)Co_(x)O_(2–δ)catalysts,achieving dramatic enhancement of the soot combustion rate at low temperatures.At 200℃ and 4.3 W(discharge power,P_(dis)),NTP-Ce_(0.8)Co_(0.2)O_(2–δ)achieved 96.9%soot conversion(X_(C)),99.0%CO_(2) selectivity(S(CO_(2)))and a maximum energy conversion efficiency(Emax)of 14.7 g kWh^(–1).Compared with previously reported results,NTP-Ce_(0.8)Co_(0.2)O_(2–δ)exhibits the highest S(CO_(2))and Emax values.Remarkably,even without heating,X_(C),Emax,and S(CO_(2))reached 92.1%,6.1 g kWh–1,and 97.5%,respectively,at 6.3 W(P_(dis)).The results of characterization and theoretical calculation demonstrated that Co dopes into the CeO_(2) crystal lattice and forms an asymmetric Ce–O–Co structure,making oxygen“easy come,easy go”,thereby enabling the rapid combustion of soot over NTP-Ce_(0.8)Co_(0.2)O_(2–δ).This study highlights the great potential of NTP for activating Olatt and provides valuable insights into the design of efficient NTP-adapted catalysts for oxidation reactions.

文摘Catalytic oxidation of soot is of great importance for emission control on diesel vehicles.In this work,a highly active Cs/Co/Ce-Sn catalyst was investigated for soot oxidation,and it was unexpectedly found that high-temperature calcination greatly improved the activity of the catalyst.When the calcination temperature was increased from 500℃ to 750℃,T_(50) decreased from 456.9℃ to 389.8℃ in a NO/O_(2)/H_(2)O/N_(2) atmosphere.Characterization results revealed that high-temperature calcination can promote the ability to transfer negative charge density from Cs to other metal cations in Cs/Co/Ce-Sn,which will facilitate the production of more oxygen defects and the generation of more surface-active oxygen species.Surfaceactive oxygen species are beneficial to the oxidation of NO to NO_(2),leading to the high yield of NO_(2) exploitation.Therefore,the Cs/Co/Ce-Sn catalyst calcined at 750℃ demonstrated higher activity than that calcined at 500℃.This work provides a pathway to prepare high efficiency catalysts for the removal of soot and significant insight into the effects of calcination on soot oxidation catalysts.

文摘Electrochemical water splitting represents a sustainable technology for hydrogen(H_(2))production.However,its large-scale implementation is hindered by the high overpotentials required for both the cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)and the anodic oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Transition metal-based catalysts have garnered significant research interest as promising alternatives to noble-metal catalysts,owing to their low cost,tunable composition,and noble-metal-like catalytic activity.Nevertheless,systematic reviews on their application as bifunctional catalysts for overall water splitting(OWS)are still limited.This review comprehensively outlines the principal categories of bifunctional transition metal electrocatalysts derived from electrospun nanofibers(NFs),including metals,oxides,phosphides,sulfides,and carbides.Key strategies for enhancing their catalytic performance are systematically summarized,such as heterointerface engineering,heteroatom doping,metal-nonmetal-metal bridging architectures,and single-atom site design.Finally,current challenges and future research directions are discussed,aiming to provide insightful perspectives for the rational design of high-performance electrocatalysts for OWS.

文摘Against the backdrop of escalating global climate change and energy crises,the resource utilization of carbon dioxide(CO_(2)),a major greenhouse gas,has become a crucial pathway for achieving carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.The hydrogenation of CO_(2)to methanol not only enables carbon sequestration and recycling,but also provides a route to produce high value-added fuels and basic chemical feedstocks,holding significant environmental and economic potential.However,this conversion process is thermodynamically and kinetically limited,and traditional catalyst systems(e.g.,Cu/ZnO/Al_(2)O_(3))exhibit inadequate activity,selectivity,and stability under mild conditions.Therefore,the development of novel high-performance catalysts with precisely tunable structures and functionalities is imperative.Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),as crystalline porous materials with high surface area,tunable pore structures,and diverse metal-ligand compositions,have the great potential in CO_(2)hydrogenation catalysis.Their structural design flexibility allows for the construction of well-dispersed active sites,tailored electronic environments,and enhanced metal-support interactions.This review systematically summarizes the recent advances in MOF-based and MOF-derived catalysts for CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol,focusing on four design strategies:(1)spatial confinement and in situ construction,(2)defect engineering and ion-exchange,(3)bimetallic synergy and hybrid structure design,and(4)MOF-derived nanomaterial synthesis.These approaches significantly improve CO_(2)conversion and methanol selectivity by optimizing metal dispersion,interfacial structures,and reaction pathways.The reaction mechanism is further explored by focusing on the three main reaction pathways:the formate pathway(HCOO*),the RWGS(Reverse Water Gas Shift reaction)+CO*hydrogenation pathway,and the trans-COOH pathway.In situ spectroscopic studies and density functional theory(DFT)calculations elucidate the formation and transformation of key intermediates,as well as the roles of active sites,metal-support interfaces,oxygen vacancies,and promoters.Additionally,representative catalytic performance data for MOFbased systems are compiled and compared,demonstrating their advantages over traditional catalysts in terms of CO_(2)conversion,methanol selectivity,and space-time yield.Future perspectives for MOF-based CO_(2)hydrogenation catalysts will prioritize two main directions:structural design and mechanistic understanding.The precise construction of active sites through multi-metallic synergy,defect engineering,and interfacial electronic modulation should be made to enhance catalyst selectivity and stability.In addition,advanced in situ characterization techniques combined with theoretical modeling are essential to unravel the detailed reaction mechanisms and intermediate behaviors,thereby guiding rational catalyst design.Moreover,to enable industrial application,challenges related to thermal/hydrothermal stability,catalyst recyclability,and cost-effective large-scale synthesis must be addressed.The development of green,scalable preparation methods and the integration of MOF catalysts into practical reaction systems(e.g.,flow reactors)will be crucial for bridging the gap between laboratory research and commercial deployment.Ultimately,multi-scale structure-performance optimization and catalytic system integration will be vital for accelerating the industrialization of MOF-based CO_(2)-to-methanol technologies.

文摘To elucidate the effect of calcite-regulated activated carbon(AC)structure on low-temperature denitrification performance of SCR catalysts,this work prepared a series of Mn-Ce/De-AC-xCaCO_(3)(x is the calcite content in coal)catalysts were prepared by the incipient wetness impregnation method,followed by acid washing to remove calcium-containing minerals.Comprehensive characterization and low-temperature denitrification tests revealed that calcite-induced structural modulation of coal-derived AC significantly enhances catalytic activity.Specifically,NO conversion increased from 88.3%of Mn-Ce/De-AC to 91.7%of Mn-Ce/De-AC-1CaCO_(3)(210℃).The improved SCR denitrification activity results from the enhancement of physicochemical properties including higher Mn^(4+)content and Ce^(4+)/Ce^(3+)ratio,an abundance of chemisorbed oxygen and acidic sites,which could strengthen the SCR reaction pathways(richer NH_(3)activated species and bidentate nitrate active species).Therefore,NO removal is enhanced.

文摘Seawater zinc-air batteries are promising energy storage devices due to their high energy density and utilization of seawater electrolytes.However,their efficiency is hindered by the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and chlorideinduced degradation over conventional catalysts.In this study,we proposed a universal synthetic strategy to construct heteroatom axially coordinated Fe–N_(4) single-atom seawater catalyst materials(Cl–Fe–N_(4) and S–Fe–N_(4)).X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirmed their five-coordinated square pyramidal structure.Systematic evaluation of catalytic activities revealed that compared with S–Fe–N_(4),Cl–Fe–N_(4) exhibits smaller electrochemical active surface area and specific surface area,yet demonstrates higher limiting current density(5.8 mA cm^(−2)).The assembled zinc-air batteries using Cl–Fe–N_(4) showed superior power density(187.7 mW cm^(−2) at 245.1 mA cm^(−2)),indicating that Cl axial coordination more effectively enhances the intrinsic ORR activity.Moreover,Cl–Fe–N_(4) demonstrates stronger Cl−poisoning resistance in seawater environments.Chronoamperometry tests and zinc-air battery cycling performance evaluations confirmed its enhanced stability.Density functional theory calculations revealed that the introduction of heteroatoms in the axial direction regulates the electron center of Fe single atom,leading to more active reaction intermediates and increased electron density of Fe single sites,thereby enhancing the reduction in adsorbed intermediates and hence the overall ORR catalytic activity.

文摘Sluggish sulfur redox kinetics remain a critical bottleneck in the advancement of high-performance lithiumsulfur batteries(LSBs).Single-atom catalysts(SACs)offer a promising solution to this limitation,particularly when their coordination structures are carefully engineered.Here,we develop a chromium-based SAC featuring a unique undercoordinated CrN_(3) configuration to boost sulfur electrochemistry.Compared with conventional CrN_(4),the CrN_(3) motif lowers 3d orbital occupancy and meanwhile activates the in-plane hybridizations with S 3p orbitals upon interaction with polysulfides,contributing to moderate adsorption strength and reduced energy barriers for bidirectional sulfur conversions.Additionally,the integration of the two-dimensional(2D)porous framework ensures abundant electrochemically active surfaces and efficiently exposed active sites.As a result,CrN_(3)-based cells demonstrate fast and durable sulfur redox reactions,enabling an ultralow capacity decay of 0.0075%per cycle over 1000 cycles and a high-rate capability of 651.9 mAh·g^(-1)at 5 C.The CrN_(3) catalyst retains robust catalytic efficiency under demanding conditions,delivering a high areal capacity of 5.53 mAh·cm^(-2) at high sulfur loading and lean electrolyte.This work establishes a compelling paradigm of SAC coordination engineering for designing advanced sulfur electrocatalysts for next-generation LSBs.

文摘Using photoelectrocatalytic CO_(2) reduction reaction(CO_(2)RR)to produce valuable fuels is a fascinating way to alleviate environmental issues and energy crises.Bismuth-based(Bi-based)catalysts have attracted widespread attention for CO_(2)RR due to their high catalytic activity,selectivity,excellent stability,and low cost.However,they still need to be further improved to meet the needs of industrial applications.This review article comprehensively summarizes the recent advances in regulation strategies of Bi-based catalysts and can be divided into six categories:(1)defect engineering,(2)atomic doping engineering,(3)organic framework engineering,(4)inorganic heterojunction engineering,(5)crystal face engineering,and(6)alloying and polarization engineering.Meanwhile,the corresponding catalytic mechanisms of each regulation strategy will also be discussed in detail,aiming to enable researchers to understand the structure-property relationship of the improved Bibased catalysts fundamentally.Finally,the challenges and future opportunities of the Bi-based catalysts in the photoelectrocatalytic CO_(2)RR application field will also be featured from the perspectives of the(1)combination or synergy of multiple regulatory strategies,(2)revealing formation mechanism and realizing controllable synthesis,and(3)in situ multiscale investigation of activation pathways and uncovering the catalytic mechanisms.On the one hand,through the comparative analysis and mechanism explanation of the six major regulatory strategies,a multidimensional knowledge framework of the structure-activity relationship of Bi-based catalysts can be constructed for researchers,which not only deepens the atomic-level understanding of catalytic active sites,charge transport paths,and the adsorption behavior of intermediate products,but also provides theoretical guiding principles for the controllable design of new catalysts;on the other hand,the promising collaborative regulation strategies,controllable synthetic paths,and the in situ multiscale characterization techniques presented in this work provides a paradigm reference for shortening the research and development cycle of high-performance catalysts,conducive to facilitating the transition of photoelectrocatalytic CO_(2)RR technology from the laboratory routes to industrial application.

文摘Deep insights into electrocatalytic mechanisms are vital for the rational design of catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Mechanistically,the OER driven by adsorbate evolution mechanism(AEM)is limited by the linear scaling relationship,thereby exhibiting large overpotentials.In the lattice oxygen mechanism(LOM),the OER can be enhanced by enabling direct O_(2)formation.However,this enhancement is accompanied by the generation of oxygen vacancies,which presents a significant challenge to the long-term stability of LOMOER,particularly when operating at high current densities.Recently,the*O-*O coupling mechanism(OCM)has emerged as a promising alternative;it not only breaks the linear scaling relationship but also ensures catalytic stability.This review encapsulates the cutting-edge advancements in electrocatalysts that are grounded in the OCM,offering a detailed interpretation on the foundational principles guiding the design of OCM-OER catalysts.It also highlights recent theoretical investigations combining machine learning(ML)with density functional theory(DFT)calculations to reveal OER mechanisms.At the end of this review,the challenges and opportunities associated with OCM-OER electrocatalysts are discussed.

文摘Fe-N-C catalysts,as promising non-precious metal alternatives for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR),still suffer from severe mass transport limitations in proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs)due to water flooding of active sites embedded in micropores.Although pore engineering through a selected template is a general strategy,the structural features of an ideal template,particularly those governing the exposure of active sites and thus affecting mass transport,remain elusive.Here,we demonstrate that low-porosity carbon templates maximize the ratio of active sites distributed at or near the surface,thereby enhancing their exposure and accessibility while reducing mass transport resistance during the ORR process.The C_(lp-1)@PPy and C_(lp-2)@PPy(PPy=polypyrrole)catalysts,derived from low-porosity carbon templates,achieve peak power densities of 0.96 and 1.03 W·cm^(-2) under H_(2)/O_(2)and 0.50 and 0.52 W·cm^(-2) under H_(2)/air,demonstrating excellent performance in PEMFC tests.Structural and electrochemical characterizations reveal that the enhanced surface exposure of active sites effectively mitigates mass transport resistance during the ORR,thereby offering a general design principle for overcoming mass transport limitations in Fe-N-C catalysts for PEMFC applications.

文摘Au/3DOM(three-dimensionally ordered macroporous) Al2O3 and Au/CeO2/3DOM Al2O3 were prepared using a reduction-deposition method and characterized using scanning electron microscopy,N2 adsorption-desorption,X-ray diffraction,transmission electron microscopy,ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy,temperature-programmed hydrogen reduction,and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.Au nanoparticles of similar sizes were well dispersed and supported on the inner walls of uniform macropores.The norminal Au loading is 2%.Al-Ce-O solid solution in CeO2/3DOM Al2O3 catalysts can be formed due to the incorporation of Al^3+ ions into the ceria lattice,which causes the creation of extrinsic oxygen vacancies.The extrinsic oxygen vacancies improved the oxygen-transport properties.The strong metal-support interactions between Au and CeO2 increased the amount of active oxygen on the Au nanoparticle surfaces,and this promoted soot oxidation.The activities of the Au-based catalysts were higher than those of the supports(Al2O3 or CeO2/3DOM Al2O3) at low temperature.Au/CeO2/3DOM Al2O3 had the highest catalytic activity for soot combustion,with T(10),T(50),and T(90) values of 273,364,and 412℃,respectively.

The catalytic activities of the catalysts as well as influencing factors on catalytic activity have been investigated for the simultaneous removal of NOx and diesel soot particulate. An increase in catalytic activity for the selective reduction of NOx was observed with Ag addition in these perovskite oxides, especially with 5% Ag loading. This catalyst could be a promising candidate of catalytic material for the simultaneous elimination of NOx and diesel soot.
