文摘Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) with organic electrodes are an emerging research direction due to the sustainability of organic materials based on elements like C,H,O,and sodium ions.Currently,organic electrode materials for SIBs are mainly used as cathodes because of their relatively high redox potentials(>1 V).Organic electrodes with low redox potential that can be used as anode are rare.Herein,a novel organic anode material (tetrasodium 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylate,Na_(4)TDC) has been developed with low redox potential (<0.7 V) and excellent cyclic stability.Its three-sodium storage mechanism was demonstrated with various in-situ/ex-situ spectroscopy and theoretical calculations,showing a high capacity of 208 mAh/g and an average decay rate of merely 0.022%per cycle.Moreover,the Na_(4)TDC-hard carbon composite can further acquire improved capacity and cycling stability for 1200 cycles even with a high mass loading of up to 20 mg cm^(-2).By pairing with a thick Na_(3)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3)cathode (20.6 mg cm^(-2)),the as-fabricated full cell exhibited high operating voltage (2.8 V),excellent rate performance and cycling stability with a high capacity retention of 88.7% after 200 cycles,well highlighting the Na_(4)TDC anode material for SIBs.

文摘Aqueous organic redox flow batteries(AORFBs)exploit the reversible electrochemical reactions of watersoluble organic redox-active species to store electricity and have emerged as promising electrochemical energy storage technologies.To improve the battery performance related to the cell resistance,such as the power density and energy efficiency,it is essential to understand the cell resistance and determine the major contributor.Here,we conduct comprehensive electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)studies and cell polarization on a representative TEMPTMA/MV cell assembled with a commercial AMVN membrane and probe the proportion of the ohmic resistance to the total cell resistance at various stages of charge(SOCs)ranging from 10%to 100%.At 0 mA·cm^(−2),the ohmic resistance is responsible for 60.3%–71.7%of the resistance of the entire cell,whereas at high current densities(for example,when the power density reaches the maximum),the ohmic resistance still contributes 47.9%–61.4%.Our quantitative analysis highlights the dominance of the ohmic resistance and anticipates that a membrane with lower resistivity may significantly increase the power density.

文摘Redox flow batteries have gained wide attention at home and abroad as a long-duration energy storage technology with the advantages of high safety,long lifespan,mutual independence of capacity and power,and easy recycling.However,the current battery management technology faces significant challenges,and there is room for development.Digital twin(DT),as a technology that collectively senses,evaluates,predicts,and optimizes characteristics,is promising to contribute to redox flow batteries’operation,maintenance,and management.This paper begins with a brief description of redox flow batteries,followed by a short explanation of the concept and application of DTs.DTs have already made some progress in the field of batteries,and can be applied to solve the problems of redox flow batteries in terms of thermal management and system optimization.Finally,the paper analyzes the combination of redox flow battery and DT architecture,which is expected to contribute to developing DT technology for redox flow batteries.
文摘Aldehydes are valuable intermediates with widespread industrial applications,and their traditional synthesis relies on chemical oxidation that is often hazardous and environmentally unfriendly.Electrochemical oxidation offers a more sustainable and milder alternative;however,it faces challenges such as aldehyde overoxidation and susceptibility to base-catalyzed Cannizzaro disproportionation.Electrochemical glycerol oxidation to glyceraldehyde is a representative example,which typically requires precious metal-based electrocatalysts but still suffers from low selectivity and activity.Here,we report a metal-free oxidation strategy mediated by 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl.By systematically investigating the redox thermodynamics and kinetics of TEMPO across a broad pH range,we construct a Pourbaix diagram and elucidate the relative kinetics of each reaction step.These insights allow us to explain the anomalously high apparent Faradaic efficiency(~200%)observed under acidic conditions,and identify neutral media as the optimal environment for selective glyceraldehyde production.Under optimized conditions,our system achieves a glyceraldehyde Faradaic efficiency exceeding 93%and a partial current density of 23.3 mA cm^(-2)at 0.57 V—more than doubling the performance of the best reported precious metal-based systems.Furthermore,the versatility of this strategy extends to the selective oxidation of other primary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes with near-unity selectivity.

文摘Ochratoxin A(OTA),a secondary fungal metabolite known for its nephrotoxic effects,is widespread in various foods and animal feeds.Our recent investigation suggests a correlation between OTA-induced nephrotoxicity and sigma-1 receptor(Sig-1R)-mediated mitochondrial apoptosis in human proximal tubule epithelial-originated kidney-2(HK-2)cells.However,the involvement of Sig-1R in OTA-induced nephrotoxicity,encompassing other forms of regulated cell death like ferroptosis,remains unexplored.In this research,cell viability,apoptotic rate,cholesterol levels,mitochondrial glutathione(mGSH)levels,reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels,and protein expressions in HK-2 cells treated with OTA and/or blarcamesine hydrochloride(Anavex 2-73)were evaluated.The results suggest that OTA induces mitochondrial apoptosis and ferroptosis by inhibiting Sig-1R,subsequently promoting sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2,3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase,GRAM domain-containing protein 1B,steroidogenic acute regulatory protein,mitochondrial,78 kDa glucose-regulated protein,CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein,cyclophilin D,cleaved-caspase-3,B-cell lymphoma-2-associated X protein,and long-chain fatty acid-CoA ligase 4,inhibiting tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated protein 1,mitochondrial 2-oxoglutarate/malate carrier protein,B-cell lymphoma-2-like protein 1,and glutathione peroxidase 4,reducing mGSH levels,and increasing total cholesterol,mitochondrial cholesterol,and ROS levels.In conclusion,OTA induces mitochondrial apoptosis and ferroptosis by inhibiting Sig-1R,thereby disrupting redox and cholesterol homeostasis in vitro.The regulation of cholesterol homeostasis by Sig-1R and its involvement in OTA-induced mitochondrial apoptosis and ferroptosis are reported here for the first time.

文摘Background Intestinal oxidative stress serves as an endogenous host defense against the gut microbiota by increas-ing energy expenditure and therefore decreasing feed efficiency(FE).Several systems coordinately regulate redox bal-ance,including the mitochondrial respiratory chain,nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate(NADPH)oxidase,and different antioxidants.However,it remains unclear which redox balance compartments in the intestine are crucial for determining FE.Results In this study,we first screened the key targets of different metabolites and redox balance-related gene expression in broiler ceca.We then constructed a mouse colitis model to explore malic acid(MA)ability to allevi-ate intestinal inflammation.We further used controlled release technology to coat MA and investigated its effects on the intestinal redox status and FE in vivo.Finally,we examined the underlying mechanism by which MA modulated redox status using a porcine intestinal epithelial cell jejunum 2(IPEC-J2)cell model in vitro.Our results demonstrated that the MA/malic enzyme 3(ME3)pathway may play an important role in reducing oxidative stress in the broiler cecum.In addition,colon infusion of MA attenuated inflammatory phenotypes in the dextran sulfate sodium salt(DSS)induced mouse colitis model.Then,dietary supplementation with controlled-release MA pellet(MAP)reduced the feed to gain(F/G)ratio and promoted chicken growth,with reduced oxidative stress and increased bacterial diver-sity.Finally,the in vitro IPEC-J2 cell model revealed that ME3 mediated the effect of MA on cellular oxidative stress.Conclusion In summary,our study firstly revealed the important role of the MA/ME3 system in the hindgut of broiler chickens for improving intestinal health and FE,which may also be crucial for the implications of colon inflammation associated diseases.

文摘The first example of Nd@C_(3)N_(4)-photoredox/chlorine dual catalyzed alkylation with unactivated alkanes as the alkyl sources has been developed,which allows for the synthesis of various 4-alkylated cyclic sulfonyl ketimines.In this process,chlorine functions as both a redox and hydrogen atom transfer catalyst.The synergism of the reversible Nd^(2+)/Nd^(3+)and Cl^(ˉ)/Cl˙redox pairs significantly enhances overall photocatalytic efficiency.The in vitro anticancer activity of 4-alkylated products was evaluated by using the CCK8assay against both human choroidal melanoma(MUM-2B)and lung cancer(A549)cell.Compound 3da showed approximately triple the potency of 5-fluorouracil.

文摘To provide optimization strategies for chalcopyrite ammonia heap leaching processes,the key factors influencing chalcopyrite ammonia leaching kinetics were investigated under sealed reactor and controlled redox potential at ambient temperature.The results indicated that redox potential,particle size,and pH significantly affected chalcopyrite dissolution rates.The reaction orders with respect to particle size and hydroxyl ion concentration c(OH−)were determined to be−2.39 and 0.55,respectively.Temperature exhibited a marginal effect on chalcopyrite dissolution within the range of 25−45℃.The ammonium carbonate medium proved more favorable for chalcopyrite leaching than ammonium chloride and ammonium sulfate systems.Surface deposits on the residues were identified as porous iron oxides,predominantly hematite and ferrihydrite,which produced diffusion barriers during leaching.Shrinking core model analysis revealed that the second stage of reaction was controlled by product-layer diffusion,which was further confirmed by the low activation energy(10.18 kJ/mol).

文摘In sulfidic anoxic environments,iron sulfides are widespread solid phases that play an important role in the arsenic(As)biogeochemical cycle.This work investigated the transformation process of FeS-As coprecipitates,the concurrent behavior,and the speciation of associated As under anoxic conditions.The results showed that FeS-As coprecipitates could convert to greigite and pyrite.The transformation degree of the produced solid phases was dependent upon the pH conditions and initial As species.These results showed that the As mobilization was closely associated with the solid phase transformation.The solid phase transformationwent from disordered mackinawite to crystallinemackinawite,then greigite and finally pyrite.The As in the coprecipitates underwent a process of release,fixation,and release again.Both reduction of As(Ⅴ)and oxidation of As(Ⅲ)were observed in the aqueous and solid phases during reactions.Our study may have important implications for further understanding of As behavior and Fe/S cycling thatmay occur under an anoxic environment more comprehensively.

文摘In pursuit of low cost and long life for lithium-ion batteries in electric vehicles,the most promising strategy is to replace the commercial LiCoO_(2)with a high-energy-density Ni-rich cathode.However,the irreversible redox couples induce rapid capacity decay,poor long-term cycling life,vast gas evolution,and unstable structure transformations of the Ni-rich cathode,limiting its practical applications.Element doping has been considered as the most promising strategy for addressing these issues.However,the relationships between element doping functions and redox chemistry still remain confused.To clarify this connection,this review places the dynamic evolution of redox couples(Li^(*),Ni^(2+)/Ni^(3+)/Ni^(4+)-e^(-),O^(2-)/O^(n-)/O_(2)-e^(-))as the tree trunk.The material structure,degradation mechanisms,and addressing element doping strategies are considered as the tree branches.This comprehensive summary aims to provide an overview of the current understanding and progress of Ni-rich cathode materials.In the last section,promising strategies based on element doping functions are provided to encourage the practical application of Ni-rich cathodes.These strategies also offer a new approach for the development of other intercalated electrode materials in Na and K-based battery systems.

文摘As environmental concerns from fossil fuel consumption intensify,large-scale energy storage becomes imperative for the integration of renewable sources like wind,hydro,and solar with the electrical grid.Redox flow batteries,particularly those employing organic molecules,are positioned as a key technology for this purpose.This review explores the growing field of symmetric organic redox flow batteries(ORFBs)within this context.Unlike traditional asymmetric designs based on unique active materials for each electrode,symmetric ORFBs involve a single bipolar species for both electrodes.This review highlights the benefits of a symmetric design,and categorizes five distinct classes of organic bipolar molecules used in both aqueous and non-aqueous solvents.By providing a comprehensive overview of their cell cycling and performance characteristics,the strengths and weaknesses of the diverse categories of bipolar molecules are highlighted for both solvent systems,as are opportunities for future development.This should guide new research directions and advance the development of practical symmetric ORFBs.

文摘The floodplain of the Yellow River is a typical area characterized by redox fluctuations and heavy metal pollution.However,the mobilization behavior of heavy metals in floodplain sediments during redox fluctuations remains poorly understood.In this study,reductive mobilization of Fe and Mn was observed under reducing environments through reduction and dissolution,leading to the subsequent release of adsorbed As.In contrast,the mobilization of U occurred under oxic conditions,as the oxidative state of U(VI)has higher solubility.Furthermore,insignificant effects on the mobilization of Cd,Cu,Pb,and Hg were noticed during redox fluctuations,indicating higher stability of these heavymetals.Additionally,we demonstrated that carbon sources can play a key role in the mobilization of heavy metals in floodplain sediments,amplifying the reductive mobilization of Fe,Mn,As and the oxidative mobilization of U.Our findings contribute to the understanding of the biogeochemical cycling of heavy metal in floodplain sediments of the Yellow River and the factors that control this cycling.
