文摘Cold plasma-assisted catalytic upcycling of polyolefin wastes integrated with CO_(2)into value-added chemicals is a promising solution for mitigating the global carbon emissions and fossil energy crisis,but still challenging due to the complexity of products and low energy efficiency.Given this,a novel one-stage process of cold plasma coupled with Ga-modified hierarchical H-ZSM-5(Ga/Hie-ZSM-5)catalyst for polyolefins upgrading was designed with polyolefins followed by the catalysts within the plasma region,which facilitated the upcycling of polyolefins to light olefins and CO_(2)activation by plasma,and thereby the enhanced synergy between cold plasma and catalysts for aromatics production.At an input power of ca.45 W without external heating,the low-density polyethylene(LDPE)waste was completely converted with the assistance of CO_(2)and the yield of oil products over the Ga/Hie-ZSM-5 catalyst was highly up to 62.2 wt%,with nearly 100% selectivity of aromatics.Meanwhile,the degradation efficiency of LDPE and the energy efficiency could reach 2.5 g_(LDPE)·g_(cat)^(-1)·h^(-1)and 55.56 g_(LDPE)·g_(cat)^(-1)·kW^(-1)h^(-1),respectively.Mechanism investigation revealed that the plasma and CO_(2)synergistically affect the primary cracking of LDPE,forming a primary product enriched in olefins and a small amount of CO.Subsequently,the produced olefins intermediates were further aromatized via cyclizationdehydrogenation route on the Ga/Hie-ZSM-5 catalyst with assistance of CO_(2)under the synergistic effect of plasma-catalysis.This work offers a feasible strategy to improve the yield of aromatic products for the plasma-catalytic upcycling of polyolefins and CO_(2)at ambient pressure without any external heating.

文摘Aiming at the problems of insufficient activity and selectivity of Cu-based catalysts in CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol,Al_(2)O_(3),ZrO_(2)and CeO_(2)modified Cu-ZnO catalysts by the co-precipitation method were prepared,and the influence mechanism of additives on the structure-performance relationship of the catalysts was systematically explored.Through a variety of characterization methods such as XRD,N2 physical adsorption-desorption,TEM,H_(2)-TPR,CO_(2)-TPD and XPS,combined with catalytic performance evaluation experiments,the correlation between the microstructure of catalysts and the reaction performance of CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol was analyzed in depth.The results show that metal additives significantly improve the performance of catalysts.After the introduction of additives,the specific surface area and pore volume of the catalysts increase,the grain size of Cu decreases,and its dispersion improves.The Ce-modified CZC catalyst exhibited the best performance,with the grain size of CuO as small as 11.41 nm,and the surface oxygen vacancy concentration(OⅡ/OⅠ=3.15)was significantly higher than that of other samples.The reaction performance test shows that under the conditions of 2.8 MPa,8000 h−1 and 280℃,the CO_(2)conversion of the CZC catalyst reached 18.83%,the methanol selectivity was 68.40%,and the methanol yield was 12.88%,all of which are superior to other catalysts.Its excellent performance can be attributed to the fact that CeO_(2)enhances the metal-support interaction,increases the surface basicity,promotes the adsorption and activation of CO_(2),and simultaneously inhibits the reverse water-gas shift side reaction.This study clarifies the structure-activity regulation mechanism of additive modification on Cu-ZnO catalysts,providing a theoretical basis and technical reference for the development of efficient catalysts for CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol.

文摘In this paper,the Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) monolithic catalyst with 15%Ni content was prepared using cordierite as a matrix,and the catalyst was modified with 10%NaOH to study the methanation performance of biomass gasification simulated gas based on alkali-modified Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) monolithic catalyst.BET,TEM,H_(2)-TPR,XRD,CO_(2)-TPD and TG were used to characterize the physicochemical properties of the catalyst before and after modification.The results indicated that the CO conversion rate trends of unmodified and modified Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) monolithic catalysts over 2 h were fundamentally consistent.However,the Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) catalysts modified for 2 h demonstrated significantly enhanced performance compared to those modified for 1 h.Regarding CH4 selectivity,the modified Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) catalyst exhibited markedly better performance than the unmodified Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) catalyst,confirming the enhanced methane performance of the alkali-modified Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) monolithic catalyst.Under optimized conditions(H_(2)/CO volume ratio of 3∶1,space velocity of 10000 mL/(g·h),and temperature of 400℃),the methanation performance of the Ni/Al_(2)O_(3) monolithic catalyst modified for 2 h reached its peak,achieving a CO conversion rate of 97%with 100%CH4 selectivity.
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Under the backdrop of“Carbon Peak and Carbon Neutrality”(dual carbon)goal in China,the methane-carbon dioxide reforming reaction has attracted considerable attention due to its environmental benefits of converting two greenhouse gases(methane and carbon dioxide)into syngas and its promising industrial applications.Nickel(Ni)-based catalysts,with high catalytic activity,low cost,and abundant resources,are considered ideal candidates for industrial applications.In this article,three reaction kinetic models were briefly introduced,namely the Power-Law(PL)model,the Eley-Rideal(ER)model,and the Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson(LHHW)model.Based on the LHHW model,the reaction kinetics and mechanisms of different catalytic systems were systematically discussed,including the properties of supports,the doping of noble metals and transition metals,the role of promoters,and the influence of the geometric and electronic structures of Ni on the reaction mechanism.Furthermore,the kinetics of carbon deposition and elimination on various catalysts were analyzed.Based on the reaction rate expressions for carbon elimination,the reasons for the high activity of transition metal iron(Fe)-doped catalysts and core-shell structured catalysts in carbon elimination were explained.Based on the detailed collation and comparative analysis of the reaction mechanisms and kinetic characteristics across diverse Ni-based catalytic systems,a theoretical guidance for the designing of high-performance catalysts was provided in this work.

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The in-flight heating process of cerium dioxide(CeO_(2))powders was investigated through experiments and numerical simulations.In the experiment,CeO_(2)powder(average size of 30μm)was injected into radio-frequency(RF)argon plasma,and the temperatures were measured using a DPV-2000 monitor.A model combining the electromagnetism,thermal flow,and heat transfer characteristics of powder during in-flight heating in argon plasma was proposed.The melting processes of CeO_(2)powders of different diameters,with and without thermal resistance effect,were investigated.Results show that the heating process of CeO_(2)powder particles consists of three main stages,one of which is relevant to a dimensionless parameter known as the Biot number.When the Biot value≥0.1,thermal resistance increases significantly,especially for the larger powders.The predicted temperature of the particles at the outlet(1800–2880 K)is in good agreement with the experimental result.

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Catalysts are key for olefin polymerization reactions and are also ubiquitous in catalysis science.Multinuclear metal catalysts have witnessed enhanced performances in catalytic reactions relative to mononuclear catalysts,but which substantially involve multi-step,tedious,and difficult synthesis.Herein,this study reports an intriguing approach to construct multi-nuclear catalysts for the milestoneα-diimine nickel catalysts using an oligomeric strategy.A polymerizable norbornene unit is incorporated into theα-diimine ligand backbone,leading to the formation of the monomeric nickel catalyst Ni_(1)and its corresponding oligomeric nickel catalysts(Ni_(3)and Ni_(5))with varying degrees of polymerization(DP=3 and 5).Notably,the oligomeric catalyst Ni_(5)was facilely scaled up(50 g-level),showed enhanced thermal stability,exhibited 4.6 times higher activity,and yielded polyethylene elastomer with a 379%increased molecular weight in ethylene polymerization,compared to the monomeric catalyst Ni_(1).Catalytic performance enhancements of oligomeric catalysts were found to be DP-dependent.The kilogram-scale polyethylene,produced using Ni_(5)in a 20 L reactor,presented a highly branched all-hydrocarbon structure,which demonstrated typical elastic properties(tensile strength:4 MPa,elastic recovery:SR=72%)along with great processability(MFI=3.0 g/10 min),insulating characteristics(volume resistivity=2×10^(16)Ω/m),and hydrophobicity(water vapor permeability:0.03 g/m^(2)/day),suggesting potentially practical applications.

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Improving plasma uniformity is a critical issue in the development of large-area radio-frequency(RF)inductively coupled plasma(ICP)sources.In this work,the effects of coil structure and electromagnetic shielding on the spatial distribution and uniformity of the plasma are systematically investigated using a three-dimensional fluid model.The model integrates plasma and electromagnetic field modules to simulate the discharge characteristics of a large-area RF ICP source with dimensions of 100 cm×50 cm.The results reveal that the electron density distribution varies significantly with the coil structure.For the rotating and translating coil structures,the electron density is high at off-axis positions and low at the center.In contrast,the mirror coil structure exhibits a significantly higher electron density at the chamber center,resulting in a high-center and low-edge density distribution.Among the three configurations,the rotating coil structure provides the best plasma uniformity.The incorporation of electromagnetic shielding further improves plasma uniformity,particularly for the mirror coil structure.For the rotating and translating coil structures,the electron density exhibits a saddle-shaped distribution regardless of electromagnetic shielding.However,introducing electromagnetic shielding into the mirror coil structure reduces the electron density at the chamber center and decreases the non-uniformity degree by 18.4%.Overall,the mirror coil structure with electromagnetic shielding achieves the highest uniformity,with an exceptional plasma uniformity of 94%.This work offers valuable insights for the design of large-area ICP sources in advanced plasma processing systems.

文摘Human health is seriously jeopardized by infections caused by pathogenic microorganisms.The current traditional disinfection technologies have many defects,such as producing harmful by-products,being affected by water turbidity,and high energy consumption.The growing concern for microbial safety has brought non-thermal plasma(NTP)disinfection technology into the spotlight.NTP is a promising disinfection technology with advantages such as environmental protection,safety,room temperature disinfection,short disinfection cycle,and wide applicability.Researchers are continuously optimizing NTP reactions to improve disinfection efficiency.This paper provides an integrated analysis of both plasma disinfection in water and plasma-activated water(PAW)disinfection on object surfaces.NTP can directly treat bacterial contaminated water,and can also be employed to produce PAW as a disinfectant for treating bacteria on surfaces.This review introduces the fundamental concepts and commonly used equipment related to NTP technology,analyzes the influencing factors and mechanisms of disinfection,and concludes by outlining the future directions of NTP technology in the field of disinfection.We hope to provide a reference for the research and practice of bacterial pollution issues.
