HO production plays an important role in electro-Fenton process for pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) degradation. In this work, carbon nanotube (CNT) was attempted to make a gas diffusion electrode (GDE) by rolling method to achieve a high HO production and current efficiency, and it was further used as electro-Fenton cathode for the degradation of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) as one kind of PPCPs. The optimal amount of catalyst layer was 0.15 g CNT and 93.75 μL PTFE, obtaining the production of HO of 805 mg L in 0.05 mM NaSO solution at 100 mA after 180 min. The degradation of ASA by electro-Fenton on such a CNT-GDE cathode was studied, and some important parameters such as current, pH as well as the dosage of Fe were optimized. The degradation ratio of ASA could achieve almost 100% after 10 min and the TOC removal ratio was 62% at 1 h under the condition of 100 mA and pH 3, showing a great potential for the treatment of PPCPs.

The decoupled power and energy output of a redox flow battery (RFB) offers a key advantage in long-duration energy storage, crucial for a successful energy transition. Iodide/iodine and hydrogen/water, owing to their fast reaction kinetics, benign nature, and high solubility, provide promising battery chemistry. However, H-I RFBs suffer from low open circuit potentials, iodine crossover, and their multiphase nature.

pH remains the most important chemical parameter and must be monitored for positive outcomes in areas as different as cheese making and fertilisation (IVF). Where blood gas analysers enable patient monitoring, starter cultures in cheese manufacturing are still monitored using conventional pH electrodes. Here, we present a homogeneous multiwell plate sensor for monitoring pH, with the same sensitivity as a pH electrode.

This study presents the synthesis of a Cd(II) based hydrophobic three dimensional crystalline network material (CNM), [Cd(L)(LH)(bpe)], {L = {4,4'-(hexafluroisopropylidine)bis(benzoate)} and 1,2-di(4-pyridyl) ethylene (bpe)}, 1(Cd), by employing the slow-diffusion method. The three-dimensional structure of 1(Cd) was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), FT-IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Subsequently, post-synthetic modification of 1(Cd) with Cu(II) at room temperature led to the formation of isostructural 1(Cu) with partial substitution.

Photo-oxidation of methane (CH) using hydrogen peroxide (HO) synthesized in situ from air and water under sunlight offers an attractive route for producing green methanol while storing intermittent solar energy. However, in commonly used aqueous-phase systems, photocatalysis efficiency is severely limited due to the ultralow availability of CH gas and HO intermediate at the flooded interface. Here, we report an atomically modified metal-organic framework (MOF) membrane nanoreactor that promotes direct CH photo-oxidation to methanol at the gas-solid interface in a reticular open framework.

LDH was synthesized utilizing the co-precipitation technique and was thermally treated at 300 °C. The prepared compounds were chemically and structurally elucidated using FT-IR, XRD, SEM, BET, TG-DTA, and XPS characterization.
