Trifunctional phosphorus-doped cobalt molybdate catalyst in self-driven coupling systems for synchronized sulfur recovery and hydrogen evolution.

This study introduces a self-driven system that effectively achieves synchronized sulfur recovery and hydrogen production using a Zn-air battery. The system ingeniously integrates the sulfur oxidation reaction (SOR) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) into a single, efficient process. Central to this system is the trifunctional phosphorus-doped cobalt molybdate catalyst (P-CoMoO/NF), which exhibits superior performance in both HER (η = 0.
