Abstract
Synergistic catalytic removal of multipollutants (e.g., volatile organic compound (VOC) oxidation and nitrogen oxide (NOx) reduction) is highly demanded due to the increasingly strict emission standards. The prevention of the key reactive intermediate species nitrite excessive oxidation over the supported noble-metal catalysts, rather than the traditional low-efficiency transition metal oxide catalysts, remains a great challenge. Herein, a sound strategy of Pd single atoms saturated with acidic transition element ligands is proposed. The coexistence of Pd and V dual single atoms strengthens the adsorption of reactants, while synergistic interaction between dual atoms and surface oxygen weakens activation of lattice oxygen, thus significantly reducing the overoxidation of nitrite. Meanwhile, the neutralization of the active Pd and inert V sites results in a rational decrease in the redox property of Pd and an obvious increase in that of V. The Pd1V1/CeO2 dual single-atom catalyst achieves 90% conversion of NOx and toluene at 238 and 230 °C and has a large temperature window (>150 °C) for NOx reduction. This research makes a breakthrough in the development of efficient supported noble-/transition-metal dual single-atom catalysts for VOC and NOx simultaneous purification.

Abstract
Acetone serves as an important solvent and building block for the chemical industry, but the current industrial synthesis of acetone is generally accompanied by the energy-intensive and costly cumene process used for phenol production. Here we propose a sustainable route for acetone synthesis via propane wet reforming at a moderate temperature of 350 oC with the use of platinum-tin nanoparticles supported on γ-aluminium oxide (PtSn/γ-Al2O3) as catalyst. We achieve an acetone productivity of 858.4 μmol/g with a selectivity of 57.8% among all carbon-based products and 99.3% among all liquid products. Detailed spectroscopic and controlled experiments reveal that the acetone is formed through a tandem catalytic process involving propene and isopropanol as intermediates. We also demonstrate facile ketone synthesis via wet reforming with the use of different alkanes (e.g., n-butane, n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, and n-octane) as substrates, proving the wide applicability of this strategy.

Photothermal Catalytic Removal of 1,2-DCE with High HCl Selectivity over the Brønsted Acid-Enriched Sulfur-Doped MOFs. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 2024.

Abstract
Chlorinated volatile organic compounds come from a wide range of sources and are highly toxic, posing a serious threat to biological health and the environment. Herein, a high-efficiency and energy-saving photothermal synergistic catalytic oxidation method was developed for the removal of 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE). Compared to traditional thermocatalysis, the 1,2-DCE conversion over Ru-U6S in photothermal synergistic catalysis at 340 °C increased by approximately 44% not only reducing energy consumption but also avoiding the instability of MOF structure caused by high reaction temperature. The excellent photothermal catalytic oxidation activity was derived from the synergistic effect of photo- and thermocatalysis. Ru-U6S demonstrated excellent 1,2-DCE adsorption capacity and stronger light utilization and could produce more reactive oxygen species (•OH and •O2-) after light illumination, which participated in the oxidation reaction, promoting the release of the active site of the catalyst. The results of H2O-TPD and NH3-DRIFTS exhibited that the use of S-containing ligands in the synthesis process increased the hydroxyl groups and Brønsted acid sites, significantly improved the selectivity of CO2 and HCl in the oxidation process, and reduced the release of chlorine-containing byproducts. This work provides a high-efficiency and energy-saving strategy for removing chlorinated volatile organic compounds and increasing the selectivity of ideal products directly with MOFs directly.

Abstract
The sluggish kinetics of Volmer step in the alkaline hydrogen evolution results in large energy consumption. The challenge that has yet well resolved is to control the water adsorption and dissociation. Here, we develop biaxially strained MoSe2 three dimensional nanoshells that exhibit enhanced catalytic performance with a low overpotential of 58.2 mV at 10 mA cm-2 in base, and long-term stable activity in membrane-electrode-assembly based electrolyser at 1 A cm-2. Compared to the flat and uniaxial-strained MoSe2, we establish that the stably adsorbed OH engineer on biaxially strained MoSe2 changes the water adsorption configuration from O-down on Mo to O-horizontal on OH* via stronger hydrogen bonds. The favorable water dissociation on 3-coordinated Mo sites and hydrogen adsorption on 4-coordinated Mo sites constitute a tandem electrolysis, resulting in thermodynamically favorable hydrogen evolution. This work deepens our understanding to the impact of strain dimensions on water dissociation and inspires the design of nanostructured catalysts for accelerating the rate-determining step in multi-electron reactions.

Abstract
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) exert a strong greenhouse effect and constitute the largest contributor to ozone depletion. Catalytic removal is considered an effective pathway for eliminating low-concentration CFCs under mild conditions. The key issue is the easy deactivation of the catalysts due to their surface fluorination. We herein report a comparative investigation on catalytic dichlorodifluoromethane (CFC-12) removal in the absence or presence of water over the sulfuric-acid-modified three-dimensionally ordered macroporous vanadia-titania-supported Ru (S-Ru/3DOM VTO) catalysts. The S-Ru/3DOM VTO catalyst exhibited high activity (T90% = 278 °C at space velocity = 40 000 mL g-1 h-1) and good stability within 60 h of on-stream reaction in the presence of 1800 ppm of water due to the improvements in acid site amount and redox ability that promoted the adsorption of CFC-12 and the activation of C-F bonds. Compared with the case under dry conditions, catalytic performance for CFC-12 removal was better over the S-Ru/3DOM VTO catalyst in the presence of water. Water introduction mitigated surface fluorination by the replenishment of hydroxyl groups, inhibited the formation of halogenated byproducts via the surface fluorine species cleaning effect, and promoted the reaction pathway of COX2 (X = Cl/F) → carboxylic acid → CO2.

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of CO2 to multicarbon (C2+) products with added value represents a promising strategy for achieving a carbon-neutral economy. Precise manipulation of the catalytic interface is imperative to control the catalytic selectivity, particularly toward C2+ products. In this study, a unique Cu/UIO-Br interface is designed, wherein the Cu(111) plane is co-modified simultaneously by Br and O from UIO-66-Br support. Such Cu/UIO-Br catalytic interface demonstrates a superior Faradaic efficiency of ≈53% for C2+ products (ethanol/ethylene) and the C2+ partial current density reached 24.3 mA cm-2 in an H-cell electrolyzer. The kinetic isotopic effect test, in situ attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations have been conducted to elucidate the catalytic mechanism. The Br, O co-modification on the Cu(111) interface enhanced the adsorption of CO2 species. The hydrogen-bond effect from the doped Br atom regulated the kinetic processes of *H species in CO2RR and promoted the formation of *COH intermediate. The formed *COH facilitates the *CO-*COH coupling and promotes the C2+ selectivity finally. This comprehensive investigation not only provides an in-depth study and understanding of the catalytic process but also offers a promising strategy for designing efficient Cu-based catalysts with exceptional C2+ products.

Abstract
Multicomponent oxides are intriguing materials in heterogeneous catalysis, and the interface between various components often plays an essential role in oxidations. However, the underlying principles of how the hetero-interface affects the catalytic process remain largely unexplored. Here we report a unique structure design of MnCoOx catalysts by chemical reduction, specifically for ethane oxidation. Part of the Mn ions incorporates with Co oxides to form spinel MnxCo3-xO4, while the rests stay as MnO2 domains to create the MnO2-MnxCo3-xO4 interface. MnCoOx with Mn/Co ratio of 0.5 exhibits an excellent activity and stability up to 1000 h under humid conditions. The synergistic effects between MnO2 and MnxCo3-xO4 are elucidated, in which the C2H6 tends to be adsorbed on the interfacial Co sites and subsequently break the C-H bonds on the reactive lattice O of MnO2 layer. Findings from this study provide valuable insights for the rational design of efficient catalysts for alkane combustion.

Abstract
Different from the common perspective of average structure, we propose that the locally elongated metal-oxygen bonds induced by La3+-to-Y3+ substitution to a Lewis acid α-YB5O9 generate medium-strength basic sites. Experimentally, NH3- and CO2-TPD experiments prove that the La3+ doping of α-Y1-xLaxB5O9 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.24) results in the emergence of new medium-strength basic sites and the increasing La3+ concentration modifies the number, not the strength, of the acidic and basic sites. The catalytic IPA conversion exhibits a reversal of the product selectivity, i.e., from 93% of propylene for α-YB5O9 to ∼90% of acetone for α-Y0.76La0.24B5O9, which means the La3+ doping gradually turns the solid from a Lewis acid to a Lewis base. Besides, α-Y0.76RE0.24B5O9 (RE = Ce, Eu, Gd, Tm) compounds were prepared to consolidate the above conjecture, where the acetone selectivity exhibits a linear dependence on the ionic radius (or electronegativity). This work suggests that the substitution-induced local structure change deserves more attention.

Abstract
This study addresses the critical challenge in alkaline direct formate fuel cells (DFFCs) of slow formate oxidation reaction (FOR) kinetics as a result of strong hydrogen intermediate (Had) adsorption on Pd catalysts. We developed WO3-supported Pd nanoparticles (EG-Pd/WO3) via an organic reduction method using ethylene glycol (EG), aiming to modulate the d-band center of Pd and alter Had adsorption dynamics. Cyclic voltammetry demonstrated significantly improved Had desorption kinetics in EG-Pd/WO3 catalysts. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the presence of EG reduces the d-band center of Pd, leading to weaker Pd-H bonds and enhanced Had desorption during the FOR. This research provides a new approach to optimize catalyst efficiency in DFFCs, highlighting the potential for more effective and sustainable energy solutions through advanced material engineering.

Abstract
The low-potential furfural oxidation reaction (FFOR) on a Cu-based electrocatalyst can produce H2 at the anode, thereby providing a bipolar H2 production system with an ultralow cell voltage. However, the intrinsic activity and stability of the Cu-based electrocatalyst for the FFOR remain unsatisfactory for practical applications. This study investigates the correlation between the valence state and the adsorption behavior of the Cu-based electrocatalyst in furfural oxidation. Cu0 is the adsorption site with low intrinsic activity. Cu+ , which exists in the form of Cu(OH)ads in alkaline electrolytes, has no adsorption ability but can improve the performance of Cu0 by promoting the adsorption of FF. Moreover, a mixed-valence Cu-based electrocatalyst (MV Cu) with high intrinsic activity and stability is prepared electrochemically. With the MV Cu catalyst, the assembled dual-side H2 production electrolyzer has a low electricity requirement of only 0.24 kWh mH2 -3 at an ultralow cell voltage of 0.3 V, and it exhibits sufficient stability. This study not only correlates the valence state with the adsorption behavior of the Cu-based electrocatalyst for the low-potential FFOR with anodic H2 production but also reveals the mechanism of deactivation to provide design principles for Cu-based electrocatalysts with satisfactory stability.

Abstract
Improving the product selectivity meanwhile restraining deep oxidation still remains a great challenge over the supported Pd-based catalysts. Herein, we demonstrate a universal strategy where the surface strong oxidative Pd sites are partially covered by the transition metal (e. g., Cu, Co, Ni, and Mn) oxide through thermal treatment of alloys. It could effectively inhibit the deep oxidation of isopropanol and achieve the ultrahigh selectivity (>98%) to the target product acetone in a wide temperature range of 50-200 °C, even at 150-200 °C with almost 100% isopropanol conversion over PdCu1.2/Al2O3, while an obvious decline in acetone selectivity is observed from 150 °C over Pd/Al2O3. Furthermore, it greatly improves the low-temperature catalytic activity (acetone formation rate at 110 °C over PdCu1.2/Al2O3, 34.1 times higher than that over Pd/Al2O3). The decrease of surface Pd site exposure weakens the cleavage for the C-C bond, while the introduction of proper CuO shifts the d-band center (εd) of Pd upward and strengthens the adsorption and activation of reactants, providing more reactive oxygen species, especially the key super oxygen species (O2-) for selective oxidation, and significantly reducing the barrier of O-H and β-C-H bond scission. The molecular-level understanding of the C-H and C-C bond scission mechanism will guide the regulation of strong oxidative noble metal sites with relatively inert metal oxide for the other selective catalytic oxidation reactions.

Abstract
The chemical composition and surface groups of the carbon support affect the adsorption capacity of toluene. To investigate the effect of catalyst substrate on the catalytic performance, two different plant biomasses, banana peel and sugarcane peel, were used as carbon precursors to prepare porous carbon catalyst supports (Cba, Csu, respectively) by a chemical activation method. After decorating PtCo3 nanoparticles onto both carbon supports (Cba, Csu), the PtCo3-su catalyst demonstrated better catalytic performance for toluene oxidation (T100 = 237 °C) at a high space velocity of 12,000 h-1. The Csu support possessed a stronger adsorption capacity of toluene (542 mg g-1), resulting from the synergistic effect of micropore volume and nitrogen-containing functional groups, which led to the PtCo3-su catalyst exhibiting a better catalytic performance. Moreover, the PtCo3-su catalyst also showed excellent stability, good water resistance properties, and high recyclability, which can be used as a promising candidate for practical toluene catalytic combustion.

Abstract
The compositions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) under actual industrial conditions are often complex; especially, the interaction of intermediate products easily leads to more toxic emissions that are harmful to the atmospheric environment and human health. Herein, we report a comparative investigation on 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE) and (1,2-DCE + toluene) oxidation over the Ru/TiO2, phosphotungstic acid (HPW)-modified Ru/TiO2, and oxygen vacancy-rich Ru/TiOx catalysts. The doping of HPW successfully introduced the 1,2-DCE adsorption sites to promote its oxidation and exhibited outstanding water resistance. For the mixed VOCs, Ru/HPW-TiO2 promoted the preferential and superfluous adsorption of toluene and resulted in the inhibition of 1,2-DCE degradation. Therefore, HPW modification is a successful strategy in catalytic 1,2-DCE oxidation, but Brønsted acid sites tend to adsorb toluene in the mixed VOC oxidation. The Ru/TiOx catalyst exhibited excellent activity and stability in the oxidation of mixed VOCs and could inhibit the generation of byproducts and Cl2 compared with the Ru/HPW-TiO2 catalyst. Compared with the Brønsted acid modification, the oxygen vacancy-rich catalysts are significantly suitable for the oxidation of multicomponent VOCs.

Abstract
In this paper, a simple solvothermal synthesis method was proposed for the preparation of metal organic framework/graphene oxide hybrid nanocomposite (UiO-67/GO). A series of UiO-67/GO composites were prepared by varying the addition forms and amounts of GO, and the optimal synthesis conditions were screened. The composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS), water contact angles (CA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The adsorption capacity and the adsorption process of toluene were investigated by dynamic adsorption and adsorption kinetics, respectively. The results indicated that 67/GO-0.5% reached the maximum adsorption capacity (876 mg g-1), which far exceeded the other adsorbents. Kinetic model and the Weber-Morris model correlated satisfactorily to the experimental data. The improved adsorption performance was attributed to GO, which enhanced π-π interaction, promoted defect generation and provided more adsorption sites. Finally, the excellent regeneration performance of the adsorbent was verified by temperature programmed desorption (TPD) and cyclic adsorption-desorption experiments. Moreover, the adsorption mechanism was further revealed. Combined with the related adsorption experiments and the density functional theory (DFT) analysis, the efficient removal of toluene by UiO-67/GO was attributed to the cooperation of defects, π-π interaction and hydrogen bonding.
