Cu-Co multiple-oxides modified on HNO-pretreated activated coke (AC) were optimized for the simultaneous removal of gaseous CO and elemental mercury (Hg) at low temperature (< 200 °C). It was found that 2%CuOx-10%CoOx/AC catalyst calcined at 400°C resulted in the coexistence of complex oxides including CuO, CuO, CoO, CoO and CoO phases, which might be good for the simultaneous catalytic oxidation of CO by Co-species and removal of Hg by Cu-species, benefiting from the synergistic catalysis during the electro-interaction between Co and Cu cations (CoO ⇌ CoO and CuO ⇌ CuO). The catalysis removal of CO oxidation was obviously depended on the reaction temperature obtaining 94.7% at 200 °C, while no obvious promoting effect on the Hg removal (68.3%-78.7%). These materials were very substitute for the removal of CO and Hg° from the flue gas with the conditions of 8-20 vol.% O and flue-gas temperature below 200 °C. The removal of Hg° followed the combination processes of adsorption and catalytic oxidation reaction via Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism, while the catalysis of CO abided by the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism with lattice oxygen species.

The bifunctional mechanism, involving multiactive compositions to simultaneously dissociate water molecules and optimize intermediate adsorption, has been widely used in the design of catalysts to boost water electrolysis for sustainable hydrogen energy production but remains debatable due to difficulties in accurately identifying the reaction process. Here, we proposed the concept of well-defined Lewis pairs in single-atom catalysts, with a unique acid-base nature, to comprehensively understand the exact role of multiactive compositions in an alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction. By facilely adjusting active moieties, the induced synergistic effect between Lewis pairs (M-P/S/Cr pairs, M = Ru, Ir, Pt) can significantly facilitate the cleavage of the H-OH bond and accelerate the removal of intermediates, thereby switching the rate-determining step from the Volmer step to the Heyrovsky step.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the accumulation of toxic amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) of tau protein in the brain. Microglia, key immune cells of the central nervous system, play an important role in AD development and progression, primarily through their responses to Aβ and NFTs. Initially, microglia can clear Aβ, but in AD, chronic activation overwhelms protective mechanisms, leading to sustained neuroinflammation that enhances plaque toxicity, setting off a damaging cycle that affects neurons, astrocytes, cerebral vasculature, and other microglia.

Simultaneous partial nitrification, anammox, and denitrification (SNAD) process offers a promising method for the effective removal of carbon and nitrogen from wastewater. However, ensuring stability is a challenge. This study investigated operational parameters such as hydraulic retention time (HRT) and biomass retention to stabilize SNAD operation, transitioning from synthetic to anaerobically pre-treated municipal wastewater (APMW) in an upflow hybrid biofilm-granular reactor (UHR).

The hydrogen-based partial denitrification coupled with anammox (H-PDA) biofilm system effectively achieves low-carbon and high-efficiency biological nitrogen removal. However, the effects and biological interaction mechanism of H flux with the H-PDA system have not yet been understood. This study assessed the effects of H flux on interactions among anammox bacteria (AnAOB), denitrifying bacteria (DB), and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) coexisting in a H-PDA system.

This study integrates partial denitrification/Anammox (PD/A) with hydroxyapatite (HAP) crystallization in a single reactor, achieving simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorus removal along with phosphorus recovery. By adjusting pH, sludge concentration, low COD/TN ratio, and applying moderate dissolved oxygen stress, the system operated stably and promoted the synergistic growth of HAP and biomass. Results showed a nitrogen removal efficiency (NRE) of 94.
