In recent years, the energy crisis has made the world realize the importance and need for green energy. Hydrogen safety has always been a primary issue that needs to be addressed for the application and large-scale commercialization of hydrogen energy, and precise and rapid hydrogen gas sensing technology and equipment are important prerequisites for ensuring hydrogen safety. Based on metal oxide semiconductors (MOS), resistive hydrogen gas sensors (HGS) offer advantages, such as low cost, low power consumption, and high sensitivity. They are also easy to test, integrate, and suitable for detecting low concentrations of hydrogen gas in ambient air. Therefore, they are considered one of the most promising HGS. This article provides a comprehensive review of the surface reaction mechanisms and recent research progress in optimizing the gas sensing performance of MOS-based resistive hydrogen gas sensors (MOS-R-HGS). Particularly, the advancements in metal-assisted or doped MOS, mixed metal oxide (MO)-MOS composites, MOS-carbon composites, and metal-organic framework-derived (MOF)-MOS composites are extensively summarized. Finally, the future research directions and possibilities in this field are discussed.

In this study, we innovatively prepared a multifunctional lignin crosslinked polyacrylamide (L-cPAM) hydrogel by a sequential two-step strategy of crosslinking of lignin and crosslinked polyacrylamide (cPAM) followed by the polymerization of cPAM. The hydrogen bonding and crosslinking between the molecular chains of lignin and PAM established a rigid and porous network structure, which provided the L-cPAM hydrogel with excellent mechanical strength, thermal stability, and salinity resistance. A series of lignin dosages (0 to 30 %) were investigated during the crosslinking of lignin and PAM.

A catalytic system has been developed, utilizing metal nanoparticles confined within a chitosan‑carbon black composite hydrogel (M-CH/CB), aimed at improving ease of use and recovery in catalytic processes. The M-CH/CBs were characterized by XRD, SEM, and EDX, the M-CH/CB system demonstrated exceptional catalytic activity in producing hydrogen gas (H) from water and methanol, and in reducing several hazardous materials including 2-nitrophenol (2-NP), 4-nitrophenol (4-NP), 2,6-dinitrophenol (2,6-DNP), acridine orange (ArO), methyl orange (MO), congo red (CR), methylene blue (MB), and potassium ferricyanide (PFC). Among the tested nanocatalysts, CH/CB showed the highest efficiency for H₂ production, while Fe-CH/CB excelled in contaminant reduction (7.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is a major air pollutant posing a serious threat to both the environment and public health. In this study, a novel nitrogen-rich biocarbon that effectively removes HS was produced from a mixture of sewage sludge and pine sawdust using melamine as nitrogen source. Compared with pristine biocarbons, nitrogen (N)-doped biocarbons possessed an adjustable porosity, e.
