Article Abstract

A single-atom Cu and Ni anchored on N-doped Reduced Graphene Oxides, which confer the intensified exposure of interior active sites, was developed. Due to single-atom active sites which accelerated the oxygenation and hydrogenation, the prepared Cu/Ni-N-rGO shows excellent conversion, good stability and selectivity for CS bond cleavage by catalytic oxidation and hydrogenation at the different temperatures. The desulfurization ratio and selectivity for 4, 6-DMDBT to carbonhydrogen were 100 % and 100 %, respectively, on the suitable conditions. The kinetics of catalytic oxidation and in situ hydrogenation of 4, 6-DMDBT, and their mechanism over Cu/Ni-N-rGO by density functional theory was explored. Computational studies show the CS cleavage of the 4, 6-dimethyldibenzothiophene by catalytic oxidation and then in situ hydrogenation is easier than that by direct hydrogenation or catalytic oxidation.

Developing a reliable procedure for the growth of III-V nanowires (NW) on silicon (Si) substrates remains a significant challenge, as current methods rely on trial-and-error approaches with varying interpretations of critical process steps such as sample preparation, Au-Si alloy formation in the growth reactor, and nanowire alignment. Addressing these challenges is essential for enabling high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices that combine the superior properties of III-V NW semiconductors with the well-established Si-based technology. Combining conventional scalable growth methods, such as Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) with in situ characterization using Environmental Transmission Electron Microscopy (ETEM-MOCVD) enables a deeper understanding of the growth dynamics, if that knowledge is transferable to the scalable processes.

Lignin degradation by biocatalysts is a key strategy to develop a plant-based sustainable carbon economy and thus alleviate global climate change. This process involves synergy between ligninases and auxiliary enzymes. However, auxiliary enzymes within secretomes, which are composed of thousands of enzymes, remain enigmatic, although several ligninolytic enzymes have been well characterized.

Degradation of Methylene Blue by Ozone Oxidation Catalyzed by the Magnetic MnFeO@CoS Nanocomposite.

Langmuir

January 2025

CSSC Nanjing Lvzhou Environmental Protection Co., Ltd, Nanjing 210039, China.

In this study, the MnFeO@CoS magnetic nanocomposite was prepared by a two-step hydrothermal method and used to catalyze the ozone oxidation degradation of methylene blue. It was characterized by XRD, EDS, SEM, FT-IR, and XPS. The results showed that the introduction of CoS made MnFeO grow uniformly on CoS nanosheets, which effectively prevented the agglomeration of MnFeO.
