To develop new types of efficient and durable catalysts, it is critical to identify the catalytic active sites, surface intermediates, and reaction mechanisms to reveal the relationship between the active sites and catalytic performance. However, the structure of a heterogeneous catalyst usually dynamically changes during reaction, bringing a great challenge for the identification of catalytic active sites and reaction pathways. Therefore, in-situ/operando techniques have been employed to real-time monitor the dynamic evolution of the structure of active sites under actual reaction conditions to precisely build the structure–function relationship. Here, we review the recent progress in the application of various in-situ/operando techniques in identifying active sites for catalytic conversion of CO_(2) over heterogeneous catalysts. We systematically summarize the applications of various optical and X-ray spectroscopy techniques, including Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), in identifying active sites and determining reaction mechanisms of the CO_(2) thermochemical conversion with hydrogen and light alkanes over heterogeneous catalysts. Finally, we discuss challenges and opportunities for the development of in-situ characterization in the future to further enlarge the capability of these powerful techniques.展开更多

文摘Accelerating the redox conversion of lithium polysulfides(Li PSs)with electrocatalysts has been regarded as an effective avenue to surmount the shuttle effect and realize high-performance lithium-sulfur(Li-S)batteries.However,the complicated reaction process,especially the real-time evolution of sulfur-containing species and electrocatalysts under working conditions,has brought great difficulties in the explicit understanding of reaction mechanism of Li-S batteries,thereby severely hampering the design of highly efficient electrocatalysts.Therefore,a crucial prerequisite for correctly identifying the reaction mechanism is an in-depth analysis of the dynamic evolution of reaction intermediates and their structure-performance relationships.In this review,we comprehensively summarized the most recent progress in the dynamic behaviors of Li PSs and electrocatalysts of Li-S batteries under working conditions in conjunction with closely related in-situ/operando characterizations to recognize the realtime evolution of phase,composition,and atomic/electronic structure,thereby unraveling the corresponding catalytic mechanism.In addition,the major challenges and unexplored issues of catalytic conversion of Li PSs were summarized and discussed,aiming to provide perspectives into the development of highly efficient electrocatalysts in Li-S chemistry.Based on this review,we believe that reasonable regulation of reconstruction behaviors can achieve satisfactory electrocatalysts with high catalytic activity,accelerating the development of green energy.
文摘In-situ tensile tests were conducted on a chemically corroded third-generation single-crystal superalloy DD9 at 980 and 1100℃.The phase transformation in the surface areas during the tensile process was analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscope,energy dispersive X-ray spectroscope,electron probe X-ray microanalysis,and transmission electron microscope.The phase transformation mechanism on the surface and the influence mechanism were studied through observation and dynamic calculation.During tensile tests at elevated temperatures,chemical corrosion promotes the precipitation of topologically close-packed(tcp)μphase andσphase on the alloy surface.Both the precipitation amount and size of these two phases on the surface at 1100℃are greater than those at 980℃.The precipitation of tcp phase on the alloy surface results in the formation of an influence layer on the surface area,and the distribution characteristics of alloying elements are significantly different from those of the substrate.The depth of the influence layer at 1100℃is greater than that at 980℃.The precipitation of tcp phase prompts the phase transition fromγphase toγ′phase around the tcp phase.

文摘The effect of manganese sulfide(MnS)inclusions and gadolinium–sulfide(Gd–S)inclusions on the deformation behavior of steel matrix at different stages was studied by in-situ tensile experiments using a scanning electron microscopy(SEM)at room temperature.Two in-situ tensile experiments of tensile force along the elongation direction of inclusions and perpendicular to the elongation direction were conducted.The hole-induced nucleation mechanism of different tensile directions and inclusion types during the tensile deformation process was revealed.When the tensile direction of the steel without Gd was parallel to the forging elongation direction,the tensile strength was 454 MPa.Meanwhile,long strip MnS inclusions were broken and shed,forming long strip holes perpendicular to the fracture direction.When the tensile direction was perpendicular to the forging elongation direction,the gap between long strip MnS inclusions and the steel matrix was expanded into a long strip hole parallel to the fracture direction,and the tensile strength was 402 MPa.Anisotropy of the steel was induced by long strip MnS inclusions.In the steel with a total gadolinium(T.Gd)content of 730 ppm,the tensile strength was 468 MPa when the tensile direction was parallel to the forging elongation direction.The tensile strength of the steel was 446MPa when the tensile direction was perpendicular to the forging elongation direction.The addition of Gd in the steel was beneficial to improve the tensile properties of the steel and reduce the anisotropy of the steel.

文摘To address the problems with catalytic degradation,such as poisoning and inactivation,a simple and efficient gas purging regeneration technique was developed for iron-based catalyst in-situ regeneration.Specifically,the effects of carrier gas types,regeneration temperatures,and granular activated carbon(GAC)addition on iron-based catalyst regeneration were investigated.The Fe_(3)O_(4)/𝛾-Al_(2)O_(3) regenerated at 550°C with additional GAC and 15%water vapor exhibited the optimal degradation efficiency towards polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs),with an increase from 41.2%to 93.5%,compared with non-regenerated Fe_(3)O_(4)/𝛾-Al_(2)O_(3).In addition,the 60-hour stability test revealed a well-recovered catalytic activity.During the Fe_(3)O_(4)/𝛾-Al_(2)O_(3) regeneration,the coke on the catalyst surface was oxidized and removed in the form of CO_(2),and meanwhile the oxidized Fe(III)was reduced into Fe(II)in the catalyst.This study provides a safe and efficient iron-based catalyst regeneration technology for PCB off-gas degradation and reveals the catalytic activity recovery mechanism during catalyst regeneration.

文摘Despite significant progress in fuel cell technology,its large-scale industrial application is still challenged by the frequently encountered performance failure during long-term operation.Clarifying the failure mechanism is the key to extending the lifecycle and enhancing stability.Herein,we have developed a time and space resolved multi-field characterization,including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,to unveil its underlying mechanism.With this operando and non-destructive characterization,the dynamic evolution of the internal mass transport,heat,and electricity field distribution is fully depicted within an industrial-scale fuel cell in operation.Thus,it is revealed that hydrogen starvation occurs in the outlet region due to the excessive hydrogen consumption during the loading-down process.This can induce local low current density and carbon corrosion,which may subsequently cause severe damage to the structure of the catalyst layer and membrane,ultimately leading to performance failure.With this understanding,we further identify a descriptor for early diagnosis to prevent any potential degradation.The methodology is of significance,which can bring fuel cell technology a step further towards industrial applications.

文摘In-situ stress is a key parameter for underground mine design and rock stability analysis.The borehole overcoring technique is widely used for in-situ stress measurement,but the rheological recovery deformation of rocks after stress relief introduces errors.To improve accuracy,this study proposes an in-situ stress solution theory that incorporates time-dependent stress relief effects.Triaxial stepwise loadingunloading rheological tests on granite and siltstone established quantitative relationships between instantaneous elastic recovery and viscoelastic recovery under different stress levels,confirming their impact on measurement accuracy.By integrating a dual-class elastic deformation recovery model,an improved in-situ stress solution theory was derived.Additionally,accounting for the nonlinear characteristics of rock masses,a determination method for time-dependent nonlinear mechanical parameters was proposed.Based on the CSIRO hollow inclusion strain cell,time-dependent strain correction equations and long-term confining pressure calibration equations were formulated.Finally,the proposed theory was successfully applied at one iron mine(736 m depth)in Xinjiang,China,and one coal mine(510 m depth)in Ningxia,China.Compared to classical theory,the calculated mean stress values showed accuracy improvements of 6.0%and 9.4%,respectively,validating the applicability and reliability of the proposed theory.

文摘Rare earth(RE)Y-type zeolite was synthesized in situ by acidic co-hydrolysis route and hydrothermal method.The key process parameters were optimized based on the RE utilization rate.The effect of inducing a rotating packed bed(RPB)in premixing and crystallization on crystallinity and RE utilization rate was further investigated.The results indicate that lanthanide(La)cations are successfully introduced into the sodalite cage of Y-type zeolite.The optimized conditions are that the molar ratio of Si/La is 150,premixing for 5 h,crystallization at 90℃ for 18 h,and calcination at 550℃ for 3.5 h.At this stage,the RE utilization rate reaches 74.5%.Compared with the conventional stirred tank reactor(STR),RPB can effectively shorten the premixing time and crystallization time by 4.3 h and 6 h,improve the crystallinity by 23%and RE utilization rate by 7.5%.The RE utilization rate is more than 80%by RPB,surpassing the effectiveness of using the one-exchange one-calcination process in the traditional liquid ion exchange process.It is expected to provide a reference for the in-situ efficient and green synthesis of RE zeolite.

文摘Lithium metal batteries(LMBs)represent a promising solution for next-generation energy storage due to their high energy density,but the growth of lithium dendrites presents significant challenges to their performance and safety.This review provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms behind lithium dendrite formation and the role of in situ/operando observation and phase field simulation in understanding and mitigating this issue,The key driving factors of dendrite growth,such as lithium-ion flux heterogeneity,surface defects,and localized stress,are explored through advanced experimental techniques,which enable real-time visualization of dendrite nucleation and growth dynamics.Complementarily,phase field simulations provide insights into subsurface and temporal evolution of dendrites by modeling thermodynamic and kinetic processes,while machine learning techniques optimize simulation accuracy through data-driven parameter refinement.The integration of experimental observations with simulation models holds great potential in improving understanding and predictive capabilities.Despite ongoing progress,challenges remain in resolving technical limitations in observation techniques,improving computational efficiency,and fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.This review highlights the synergy between experimental and computational strategies in advancing the development of LMBs and calls for continued research to overcome existing hurdles and unlock the full potential of lithium metal anodes.
文摘The main purpose of using geothermal energy piles(GEPs)is to enable the exploitation of geothermal energy for meeting the heating/cooling demands of buildings efficiently.However,the installation process of conventional GEPs is inconvenient compared with that of traditional foundation piles.The pre-bored grouted planted geothermal energy pile(PGP GEP)is an innovative technology to simplify the installation process.Most investigations of in-situ experiments for conventional GEPs have focused on summer conditions.An in-situ test for a PGP GEP was conducted to analyze the temperature changes and thermo-mechanical characteristics under winter conditions.The results show that the average temperature of the pile decreased by 5.1℃,and the pile exhibited a general trend of high temperatures at both ends and low temperatures in the middle.In mechanics,strong pile end restraints resulted in smaller observed axial strain and higher axial thermal-induced force in the pile ends than at the middle of the pile.

文摘Waterborne acrylic coatings are widely utilized due to their cost-effectiveness,high transparency,strong resistance to weather and chemicals,impressive mechanical properties,and excellent adhesion to various substrates.In these coatings,a reactive emulsifier containing phosphate groups can be integrated into the molecular chain during polymerization,which enhances the coating's compactness and corrosion resistance.This work focuses on the synthesis of styrene-butyl acrylate(St-BA)latex and methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate(MMA-BA)latex using the reactive phosphate emulsifier ANPEO_(10)-P_(1) through seed emulsion polymerization,achieving a conversion rate of approximately 99%and a solid content close to 50%.The resulting coatings from St-BA and MMA-BA latexes demonstrated long-term corrosion protection for carbon steel and aluminum alloy due to in-situ phosphatization,effectively preventing flash rust.Notably,the MMA-BA coating exhibited remarkable durability,enduring immersion for up to 1224 h(51 d)on Q 235 carbon steel before reaching the failure threshold(|Z|0.01 Hz£106Ω·cm^(2))on Q 235 carbon steel.On 5052 aluminum alloy,the St-BA coating maintained|Z|0.01 Hz>10^(8)Ω·cm^(2) for 480 h(20 d).Furthermore,the corrosion resistance of St-BA and MMA BA coatings on Q 235 steel sheet and 5052 aluminum alloy surpassed that of commercially available MMA-BA and St BA coatings after immersion in a 3.5 wt%NaCl aqueous solution.This work also delves into the anticorrosion mechanism of MMA-BA and St-BA coatings.

文摘Cold deformation treatment of Cu-bearing stainless steel through a cold rolling process combined with electric pulse treatment(EPT)can significantly improve the microstructure and formability of cold-rolled Cu-bearing stainless steel.The microstructure after EPT was characterized by scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,and in-situ tensile testing.It is found that compared with conventional heat treatment,EPT process can significantly promote the nucleation rate and mobility at grain boundaries of the deformed samples,greatly accelerating the recovery and static recrystallization of Cu-bearing stainless steel samples at lower temperatures and contributing to the recovery of anisotropy and the re-molding of deformed samples.Microstructural characterization and theoretical analyses show that the rapid recrystallization during EPT process is caused not only by Joule heating effects but also by non-thermal effects that accelerate grain boundary migration and dislocation destruction and regeneration.In addition,EPT process significantly accelerated the nucleation and precipitation growth of Cu-rich phase.The coarsening of Cu-rich phase during EPT process is due to not only the high vacancy diffusion coefficient under the action of the electric pulse but also the increase in the vacancy diffusion flux induced by the electromigration in the process of the electric pulse.

文摘As atmospheric CO_(2) concentration continues to rise,carbon capture and utilization(CCU)technology has emerged as a critical strategy toward achieving carbon neutrality.CCU offers a dual advantage of mitigating CO_(2) emissions while producing value-added chemicals and fuels.However,conventional CCU strategies typically decouple the CO_(2) capture and electrochemical conversion processes,resulting in increased system complexity,higher energy demands,and limited economic viability.Building an integrated system of CO_(2) capture and in-situ electroreduction can bridge the technological gap,reduce costs,and ultimately enhance carbon cycle efficiency.In this review,we highlight recent advances in CO_(2) capture and in-situ electroreduction technologies.We first evaluate the strengths and limitations of conventional CCU technologies and the emerging CO_(2) capture and direct utilization technologies.Subsequently,we summarize the breakthroughs in multifunctional catalyst systems and key catalyst optimization strategies,and analyze the mechanisms behind the performance improvement.Meanwhile,we also discuss the application progress of in-situ techniques and theoretical calculations in CO_(2) capture and in-situ electroreduction.Finally,we outline the unresolved scientific and engineering challenges and propose future research directions to accelerate the development of CO_(2) capture and in-situ electroreduction.

文摘In-situ heating conversion is the most practical recovery method for lacustrine low-to-medium maturity shale oil.However,the energy output-input ratio must exceed the economic threshold to achieve commercial development.This paper systematically investigates the mechanism of super-rich accumulation of organic matter in continental shale,sweet spot evaluation,optimal heating windows,and appropriate well types and patterns from the perspectives of enhancing energy output and reducing energy input.(1)The super-rich accumulation of organic matter in lacustrine shale is primarily controlled by the intensity,frequency,and preservation of external material inputs,and is related to moderate volcanic and hydrothermal activities,marine transgressions,with total organic carbon content greater than or equal to 6%.(2)The quality of organic-rich intervals is related to the type of source material and hydrocarbon generation potential.The in-situ conversion-derived hydrocarbon quality index(HQI)is established,and the zones exhibiting HQI>450 are defined as sweet spots.(3)Considering the characteristics of the organic matter conversion material field and seepage field,the temperature interval 300-370℃is recommended as the optimal heating window for the Chang 7_(3)sub-member of the Triassic Yanchang Formation in the Ordos Basin.Based on the advantages of thermal conductivity,permeability,and hydrocarbon expulsion efficiency along the bedding direction during in-situ heating,the“horizontal well heating+vertical well development”scheme is proposed,which has demonstrated significant enhancement in both recovery factor and energy output-input ratio,making it the optimal in-situ conversion process.The research findings provide a theoretical and technical foundation for the economical and efficient development of low-to-medium maturity shale oil.
