High photocatalytic yield in the non-oxidative coupling of methane using a Pd-TiO 2 nanomembrane gas flow-through reactor. EES CATALYSIS 2024; 2:1164-1175. [PMID: 39246680 PMCID: PMC11375953 DOI: 10.1039/d4ey00112e] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024]
Abstract
The photocatalytic non-oxidative coupling of methane (NOCM) is a highly challenging and sustainable reaction to produce H2 and C2+ hydrocarbons under ambient conditions using sunlight. However, there is a lack of knowledge, particularly on how to achieve high photocatalytic yield in continuous-flow reactors. To address this, we have developed a novel flow-through photocatalytic reactor for NOCM as an alternative to the conventionally used batch reactors. Me/TiO2 photocatalysts, where Me = Au, Ag and Pd, are developed, but only those based on Pd are active. Interestingly, the preparation method significantly impacts performance, going from inactive samples (prepared by wet impregnation) to highly active samples (prepared by strong electrostatic adsorption - SEA). These photocatalysts are deposited on a nanomembrane, and the loading effect, which determines productivity, selectivity, and stability, is also analysed. Transient absorption spectroscopy (TAS) analysis reveals the involvement of holes and photoelectrons after charge separation on Pd/TiO2 (SEA) and their interaction with methane in ethane formation, reaching a production rate of about 1000 μmol g-1 h-1 and a selectivity of almost 95% after 5 hours of reaction. Stability tests involving 24 h of continuous irradiation are performed, showing changes in productivity and selectivity to ethane, ethylene and CO2. The effect of a mild oxidative treatment (80 °C) to extend the catalyst's lifetime is also reported.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024:10.1007/s11356-024-34838-x. [PMID: 39225926 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-024-34838-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/24/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
CO2 emissions have been steadily increasing and have been a major contributor for climate change compelling nations to take decisive action fast. The average global temperature could reach 1.5 °C by 2035 which could cause a significant impact on the environment, if the emissions are left unchecked. Several strategies have been explored of which carbon capture is considered the most suitable for faster deployment. Among different carbon capture solutions, adsorption is considered both practical and sustainable for scale-up. But the development of adsorbents that can exhibit satisfactory performance is typically done through the experimental approach. This hit and trial method is costly and time consuming and often success is not guaranteed. Machine learning (ML) and other computational tools offer an alternate to this approach and is accessible to everyone. Often, the research towards materials focuses on maximizing its performance under simulated conditions. The aim of this study is to present a holistic view on progress in material research for carbon capture and the various tools available in this regard. Thus, in this review, we first present a context on the workflow for carbon capture material development before providing various machine learning and computational tools available to support researchers at each stage of the process. The most popular application of ML models is for predicting material performance and recommends that ML approaches can be utilized wherever possible so that experimentations can be focused on the later stages of the research and development.

Abstract
Dry reforming of methane (DRM), the catalytic conversion of CH4 and CO2 into syngas (H2+CO), is an important process closely correlated to the environment and chemical industry. NiAl-based catalysts have been reported to exhibit excellent activity, low cost, and environmental friendliness. At the same time, the rapid deactivation caused by carbon deposition, Ni sintering, and phase transformation exerts great challenges for its large-scale applications. This review summarizes the recent advances in NiAl-based catalysts for DRM, particularly focusing on the strategies to construct efficient and stable NiAl-based catalysts. Firstly, the thermodynamics and elementary steps of DRM, including the activation of reactants and coke formation and elimination, are summarized. The roles of Al2O3 and its mixed oxides as the support, and the influences of the promoters employed in NiAl-based catalysts over the DRM performance, are then illustrated. Finally, the design of anti-coking and anti-sintering NiAl-based catalysts for DRM is suggested as feasible and promising by tailoring the structure and states of Ni and the modification of Al-based supports including small Ni size, high Ni dispersion, proper basicity, strong metal-support interaction (SMSI), active oxygen species as well as high phase stability.

Abstract
In order to meet the climate goals of the Paris Agreement and limit the potentially catastrophic consequences of climate change, we must move away from the use of fossil feedstocks for the production of chemicals and fuels. The conversion of synthesis gas (a mixture of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and/or carbon dioxide) can contribute to this. Several reactions allow to convert synthesis gas to oxygenates (such as methanol), olefins or waxes. In a consecutive step, these products can be further converted into chemicals, such as dimethyl ether, short olefins, or aromatics. Alternatively, fuels like gasoline, diesel, or kerosene can be produced. These two different steps can be combined using bifunctional catalysis for direct conversion of synthesis gas to chemicals and fuels. The synergistic effects of combining two different catalysts are discussed in terms of activity and selectivity and compared to processes based on consecutive reaction with single conversion steps. We found that bifunctional catalysis can be a strong tool for the highly selective production of dimethyl ether and gasoline with high octane numbers. In terms of selectivity bifunctional catalysis for short olefins or aromatics struggles to compete with processes consisting of single catalytic conversion steps.

Abstract
Direct photocatalytic methane oxidation into value-added products provides a promising strategy for methane utilization. However, the inefficient generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) partly limits the activation of CH4. Herein, it is reported that Pd and VOδ co-modified TiO2 enables direct and selective methane oxidation into liquid oxygenates in the presence of O2 and H2. Due to the extra ROS production from the in situ formed H2O2, a highly improved yield rate of 5014 µmol g-1 h-1 for liquid oxygenates with a selectivity of 89.3% is achieved over the optimized Pd0.5V0.2-TiO2 catalyst at ambient temperature, which is much better than those (2682 µmol g-1 h-1, 77.8%) without H2. Detailed investigations also demonstrate the synergistic effect between Pd and VOδ species for enhancing the charge carrier separation and transfer, as well as improving the catalytic activity for O2 reduction and H2O2 production.

Abstract
Compared with conventional methane reforming technologies, chemical looping reforming (CLR) has the advantages of self-elimination of coke, a suitable syngas ratio for certain down-stream processes, and a pure H2 or CO stream. In the reduction step of CLR, methane combustion has to be inhibited, which could be achieved by designing appropriate oxygen carriers and/or optimizing the operating conditions. To gain a further understanding of the combustion reaction, methane oxidation by perovskite (SrFeO3-δ) at 900 °C and 1 atm in a pulse mode was investigated in this work. The oxygen non-stoichiometry of SrFeO3-δ prepared by a Pechini-type polymerizable complex method is 0.14 at ambient conditions, and it increases to 0.25 and subsequently to 0.5 when heating from 100 to 900 °C in argon that contains 2 ppmv of molecular oxygen. The activation energies of the first and second transitions are 294 and 177 kJ/mol, respectively. The presence of 0.99 vol.% hydrogen in argon significantly reduces the amount CO2 produced. At a pulse interval of 10 min, the amount of CO2 produced in the absence of hydrogen is one order of magnitude greater than that in the presence of hydrogen. In the former case, the amount of CO2 produced dramatically decreases first and then gradually approaches a constant, and the oxygen species involved in methane combustion can be partially replenished by extending the pulse interval, e.g., 82.5% of this type of oxygen species is replenished when the pulse interval is extended to 60 min. The restored species predominantly originate from those that reside in the surface layer or even in the bulk.

Abstract
One-carbon (C1) catalysis refers to the conversion of compounds with a single carbon atom, especially carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), and methane (CH4), into clean fuels and valuable chemicals via catalytic strategy is crucial for sustainable and green development. Among various catalytic strategies, thermal-driven process seems to be one of the most promising pathways for C1 catalysis due to the high efficiency and practical application prospect. Notably, the rational design of thermal-driven C1 catalysts plays a vital role in boosting the targeted products synthesis of C1 catalysis, which relies heavily on the choice of ideal active site support, catalyst fabrication precursor, and catalytic reaction field. As a novel crystalline porous material, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has made significant progress in the design and synthesis of various functional nanomaterials. However, the application of MOFs in C1 catalysis faces numerous challenges, such as thermal stability, mechanical strength, yield of MOFs, and so on. To overcome these limitations and harness the advantages of MOFs in thermal-driven C1 catalysis, researchers have developed various catalyst/carrier preparation strategies. In this review, we provide a concise overview of the recent advancements in the conversion of CO, CO2, and CH4 into clean fuels and valuable chemicals via thermal-catalytic strategy using MOFs-based catalysts. Furthermore, we discuss the main challenges and opportunities associated with MOFs-based catalysts for thermal-driven C1 catalysis in the future.

Abstract
Fe‒S cluster-harboring enzymes, such as carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODH), employ sophisticated artificial electron mediators like viologens to serve as potent biocatalysts capable of cleaning-up industrial off-gases at stunning reaction rates. Unraveling the interplay between these enzymes and their associated mediators is essential for improving the efficiency of CODHs. Here we show the electron mediator-interaction site on ChCODHs (Ch, Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans) using a systematic approach that leverages the viologen-reactive characteristics of superficial aromatic residues. By enhancing mediator-interaction (R57G/N59L) near the D-cluster, the strategically tailored variants exhibit a ten-fold increase in ethyl viologen affinity relative to the wild-type without sacrificing the turn-over rate (kcat). Viologen-complexed structures reveal the pivotal positions of surface phenylalanine residues, serving as external conduits for the D-cluster to/from viologen. One variant (R57G/N59L/A559W) can treat a broad spectrum of waste gases (from steel-process and plastic-gasification) containing O2. Decoding mediator interactions will facilitate the development of industrially high-efficient biocatalysts encompassing gas-utilizing enzymes.

Abstract
Converting CO2 to olefins is an ideal route to achieve carbon neutrality. However, selective hydrogenation to light olefins, especially single-component olefin, while reducing CH4 formation remains a great challenge. Herein, we developed ZnZrOx /SSZ-13 tandem catalyst for the highly selective hydrogenation of CO2 to light olefins. This catalyst shows C2 = -C4 = and propylene selectivity up to 89.4 % and 52 %, respectively, while CH4 is suppressed down to 2 %, and there is no obvious deactivation. It is demonstrated that the isolated moderate Brønsted acid sites (BAS) of SSZ-13 promotes the rapid conversion of intermediate species derived from ZnZrOx , thereby enhancing the kinetic coupling of the reactions and inhibit the formation of alkanes and improve the light olefins selectivity. Besides, the weaker BAS of SSZ-13 promote the conversion of intermediates into aromatics with 4-6 methyl groups, which is conducive to the aromatics cycle. Accordingly, more propene can be obtained by elevating the Si/Al ratio of SSZ-13. This provides an efficient strategy for CO2 hydrogenation to light olefins with high selectivity.

Abstract
The development of electrocatalysts that exhibit stability, high activity, and selectivity for CO2 reduction reactions (CO2RR) remains a significant challenge. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) hold promise in addressing this challenge due to their high atomic utilization efficiency. In this study, we explore the potential of monolayer γ-GeSe doped with transition metals, referred to as TM@γ-GeSe, for facilitating electrocatalytic CO2RR. Among the 26 TM@γ-GeSe SACs systematically designed, we have identified four stable transition metal catalysts (TM = Rh, Pd, Pt, and Au). Mechanistic investigations into the CO2RR pathways reveal exceptional electrocatalytic activity for Rh@γ-GeSe and Pd@γ-GeSe, with limiting potentials of -0.26 and -0.35 V, respectively. Particularly, Pd@γ-GeSe exhibits outstanding product selectivity toward formic acid. The introduction of strain engineering induces modifications in the catalytic activity and selectivity of Rh@γ-GeSe. Notably, a 1% tensile strain promotes formic acid as the preferred product, thereby improving the specific product selectivity of Rh@γ-GeSe. Conversely, compressive strain reduces CO2RR activity while enhancing the hydrogen evolution reaction, leading to a decrease in CO2RR selectivity. Furthermore, we use the work function as a descriptor to elucidate the underlying mechanism of strain tunability. We hope that our theoretical study will offer valuable insights for the design of catalysts based on γ-GeSe for electrocatalytic CO2RR.

Abstract
The direct oxidation of methane to methanol under mild conditions is challenging owing to its inadequate activity and low selectivity. A key objective is improving the selective oxidation of the first carbon-hydrogen bond of methane, while inhibiting the oxidation of the remaining carbon-hydrogen bonds to ensure high yield and selectivity of methanol. Here we design ultrathin PdxAuy nanosheets and revealed a volcano-type relationship between the binding strength of hydroxyl radical on the catalyst surface and catalytic performance using experimental and density functional theory results. Our investigations indicate a trade-off relationship between the reaction-triggering and reaction-conversion steps in the reaction process. The optimized Pd3Au1 nanosheets exhibits a methanol production rate of 147.8 millimoles per gram of Pd per hour, with a selectivity of 98% at 70 °C, representing one of the most efficient catalysts for the direct oxidation of methane to methanol.

Abstract
CO2 methanation has attracted considerable attention as a promising strategy for recycling CO2 and generating valuable methane. This study presents a niobium-doped CeO2-supported Ni catalyst (Ni/NbCe), which demonstrates remarkable performance in terms of CO2 conversion and CH4 selectivity, even when operating at a low temperature of 250 °C. Structural analysis reveals the incorporation of Nb species into the CeO2 lattice, resulting in the formation of a Nb-Ce-O solid solution. Compared with the Ni/CeO2 catalyst, this solid solution demonstrates an improved spatial distribution. To comprehend the impact of the Nb-Ce-O solid solution on refining the electronic properties of the Ni-Ce interfacial sites, facilitating H2 activation, and accelerating the hydrogenation of CO2* into HCOO*, in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations were conducted. These investigations shed light on the mechanism through which the activity of CO2 methanation is enhanced, which differs from the commonly observed CO* pathway triggered by oxygen vacancies (OV). Consequently, this study provides a comprehensive understanding of the intricate interplay between the electronic properties of the catalyst's active sites and the reaction pathway in CO2 methanation over Ni-based catalysts.

Abstract
It is a challenge to characterize the acid properties of microporous materials in either experiments or theory. This study presents the crystal structure, acid site, acid strength, proton siting, and IR spectra of HSAPO-34 from the SCAN + rVV10 method. The results indicate: the crystal structures of various acid sites of HSAPO-34 deviate from the space group of R3¯; the acid strength inferred from the DPE value likely decreases with the proton binding sites at O(2), O(4), O(1),and O(3), contrary to the stability order in view of the internal energy; the calculated ensemble-averaged DPE is about 1525 kJ/mol at 673.15 K; and the proton siting and the proton distribution are distinctly influenced by the temperature: at low temperatures, the proton is predominantly located at O(3), while it prefers O(2) at high temperatures, and the proton at O(4) assumedly has the least distribution at 273.15-773.15 K. In line with the neutron diffraction experiment, a correction factor of 0.979 is needed to correct for the calculated hydroxyl stretching vibration (ν(O-H)) of HSAPO-34. It seems that the SCAN meta-GGA method, compensating for some drawbacks of the GGA method, could provide satisfying results regarding the acid properties of HSAPO-34.

Abstract
The acceptorless dehydrogenation of methanol to produce carbon monoxide (CO) and dihydrogen (H2) mediated by MACHO-type 1-Ru and 1-Mn complexes was theoretically investigated via density functional theory calculations. The 1-Ru-catalyzed process involves the formation of active species 4-Ru through a methanol-bridged H2 release pathway. Methanol dehydrogenation by 4-Ru yields formaldehyde and 1-Ru, followed by H2 release to regenerate 4-Ru (rate-determining step, ΔG‡ = 32.5 kcal/mol). Formaldehyde further reacts with methanol via nucleophilic attack of the MeO- ligand in the Ru complex (ΔG‡ = 9.6 kcal/mol), which is more favorable than the traditional methanol-to-formaldehyde nucleophilic attack (ΔG‡ = 33.8 kcal/mol) due to the higher nucleophilicity of MeO-. CO is ultimately produced through the methyl formate decarbonylation reaction. Accelerated H2 release in the early reaction stage compared to CO results from the initial methanol dehydrogenation and condensation of formaldehyde with methanol. In contrast, CO generation occurs later via methyl formate decarbonylation. The 1-Mn-catalyzed reaction has reduced efficiency compared to 1-Ru for the higher Gibbs energy barrier (ΔG‡ = 34.1 kcal/mol) of the rate-determining step. Excess NaOtBu promotes the reaction of CO and methanol, forming methyl formate, significantly reducing the CO/H2 ratio as the catalyst amount decreases. These findings deepen our understanding of the methanol-to-syngas transformation and can drive progress in this field.

Abstract
The selectivity control of Pd nanoparticles (NPs) in the direct CO esterification with methyl nitrite toward dimethyl oxalate (DMO) or dimethyl carbonate (DMC) remains a grand challenge. Herein, Pd NPs are incorporated into isoreticular metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), namely UiO-66-X (X=-H, -NO2 , -NH2 ), affording Pd@UiO-66-X, which unexpectedly exhibit high selectivity (up to 99 %) to DMC and regulated activity in the direct CO esterification. In sharp contrast, the Pd NPs supported on the MOF, yielding Pd/UiO-66, displays high selectivity (89 %) to DMO as always reported with Pd NPs. Both experimental and DFT calculation results prove that the Pd location relative to UiO-66 gives rise to discriminated microenvironment of different amounts of interface between Zr-oxo clusters and Pd NPs in Pd@UiO-66 and Pd/UiO-66, resulting in their distinctly different selectivity. This is an unprecedented finding on the production of DMC by Pd NPs, which was previously achieved by Pd(II) only, in the direct CO esterification.

Abstract
Methane and carbon dioxide are the main contributors to global warming, with the methane effect being 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide. Although the sources of methane are diverse, it is a very volatile and explosive gas. One way to store the energy content of methane is through its conversion to methanol. Methanol is a liquid under ambient conditions, easy to transport, and, apart from its use as an energy source, it is a chemical platform that can serve as a starting material for the production of various higher-value products. Accordingly, the transformation of methane to methanol has been extensively studied in the literature, using traditional catalysts as different types of zeolites. However, in the last few years, a new generation of catalysts has emerged to carry out this transformation with higher conversion and selectivity, and more importantly, under mild temperature and pressure conditions. These new catalysts typically involve the use of a highly porous supporting material such as zeolite, or more recently, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and graphene, and metallic nanoparticles or a combination of different types of nanoparticles that are the core of the catalytic process. In this review, recent advances in the porous supports for nanoparticles used for methane oxidation to methanol under mild conditions are discussed.

Abstract
ConspectusC1 catalysis, which refers to the conversion of molecules with a single carbon atom, such as CO, CO2, and CH4, into clean fuels and basic building blocks for chemical industries, has built a bridge between carbon resource utilization and valuable chemical supply. With respect to the goal of carbon neutrality, C1 catalysis also plays an essential role owing to its integrated functions in the green catalytic process with fewer CO2 emissions and even direct high-value-added utilization of greenhouse gases (CO2 and CH4). However, the inert nature of the C-O or C-H bond in C1 molecules as well as uncontrollable C-C coupling render C1 catalysis challenging. The rational design of highly active catalytic materials (denoted as C1 catalysts) with strong capacities for C-O or C-H bond activation and C-C coupling by convenient nanomaterials fabrication methods to boost the catalytic performance of C1 molecule conversion, including targeted product selectivity and long-term stability, is the cornerstone of C1 catalysis.Notably, the familiar concepts in heterogeneous catalysis, such as tandem catalysis and confinement catalysis, are applicable for C1 catalysis and have been successfully used to design a C1 catalyst. Regarding the tandem catalysis concept that integrates multiple reactions in a single-pass via a bi- or multifunctional catalyst, it is promising to shed new light on the oriented conversion of C1 molecules, especially for C2+ hydrocarbon or oxygenate synthesis. The confinement effect is powerful for controlling the product distribution and enhancing activation efficiency of inert chemical bonds in C1 catalysis due to the unique reactants/intermediate adsorption and evolution behaviors on the confined catalytic interface with a special electronic environment. Moreover, metal-support interactions (MSIs), electronic properties of the active site, and catalytic engineering issues are also susceptible to the C1 molecule conversion performance. Therefore, under the guidance of basic and novel rules in heterogeneous catalysis, the innovation of catalytic materials with the aid of advanced catalytic materials fabrication techniques has always been a hot research topic in C1 catalysis.In this Account, we briefly describe the challenges in thermal-catalytic C1 molecule (mainly CO, CO2, and CH4) conversion. At the same time, the synergistic functioning of the physicochemical properties of the catalytic materials on the performance in C1 molecule conversion is highlighted. More importantly, we summarize our progress in rationally designing tailor-made C1 catalysts to enhance C1 molecule activation efficiency and targeted product selectivity via powerful nanomaterials fabrication techniques, such as traditional wet-chemistry strategies, the magnetron sputtering method, and 3D printing technology. Specifically, the ingenious capsule catalyst and ammonia pools in zeolites fabricated by a wet chemistry process possess an extraordinary effect on the transformation of CO, CO2, and CH4 molecules. Also, the sputtering method is reliable in modulating the electronic properties of metallic active sites for C1 molecule conversion, thereby tailoring the final product selectivity. Furthermore, we showcase the strong capability of metal 3D printing technology in fabricating a self-catalytic reactor, by which the functions of the reaction field and nanoscale active sites are well integrated. Finally, we predict the future research opportunities in highly efficient C1 catalyst design with the assistance of clever nanomaterials fabrication techniques.

Abstract
Atomically precise metal nanoclusters (NCs) have emerged as a new class of ultrasmall nanoparticles with both free valence electrons and precise structures (from the metal core to the organic ligand shell) and provide great opportunities to understand the relationship between their structures and properties, such as electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (eCO2RR) performance, at the atomic level. Herein, we report the synthesis and the overall structure of the phosphine and iodine co-protected Au4(PPh3)4I2 (Au4) NC, which is the smallest multinuclear Au superatom with two free e- reported so far. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveals a tetrahedral Au4 core stabilized by four phosphines and two iodides. Interestingly, the Au4 NC exhibits much higher catalytic selectivity for CO (FECO: > 60%) at more positive potentials (from -0.6 to -0.7 V vs. RHE) than Au11(PPh3)7I3 (FECO: < 60%), a larger 8 e- superatom, and Au(i)PPh3Cl complex; whereas the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) dominates the electrocatalysis when the potential becomes more negative (FEH2 of Au4 = 85.8% at -1.2 V vs. RHE). Structural and electronic analyses reveal that the Au4 tetrahedron becomes unstable at more negative reduction potentials, resulting in decomposition and aggregation, and consequently the decay in catalytic performance of Au based catalysts towards the eCO2RR.

Abstract
Targeted synthesis of C/composite Ni-based material was carried out by the method of matrix isolation. The composite was formed with regard to the features of the reaction of catalytic decomposition of methane. The morphology and physicochemical properties of these materials have been characterized using a number of methods: elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, temperature programmed reduction (TPR-H2), specific surface areas (SSA), thermogravimetric analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry (TGA/DSC). It was shown by FTIR spectroscopy that nickel ions are immobilized on the polymer molecule of polyvinyl alcohol, and during heat treatment, polycondensation sites are formed on the surface of the polymer molecule. By the method of Raman spectroscopy, it was shown that already at a temperature of 250 °C, a developed conjugation system with sp2-hybridized carbon atoms begins to form. The SSA method shows that the formation of the composite material resulted in a matrix with a developed specific surface area of 20 to 214 m2/g. The XRD method shows that nanoparticles are essentially characterized by Ni, NiO reflexes. The composite material was established by microscopy methods to be a layered structure with uniformly distributed nickel-containing particles 5-10 nm in size. The XPS method determined that metallic nickel was present on the surface of the material. A high specific activity was found in the process of catalytic decomposition of methane-from 0.9 to 1.4 gH2/gcat/h, XCH4, from 33 to 45% at a reaction temperature of 750 °C without the stage of catalyst preliminary activation. During the reaction, the formation of multi-walled carbon nanotubes occurs.

Abstract
To realize sustainable societies, the production of organic compounds not based on fossil resources should be developed. Thus, C1 chemistry, utilizing one-carbon compounds as starting materials, has been of increasing importance. In particular, the formose reaction is promising because the reaction produces sugars (monosaccharides) from formaldehyde under basic conditions. On the other hand, since microwave (MW) induces the rotational motion of molecules, MW irradiation often improves the selectivity and efficiency of reactions. In this study, the formose reaction under MW irradiation was thus investigated under various conditions. The formose reaction proceeded very fast using 1.0 mol per kg formaldehyde and 55 mmol per kg calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) as a catalyst at a high set temperature (150 °C) for a short time (1 min) to form preferentially specific hexose and heptose. The major products were isolated by thin layer chromatography and characterized by mass spectroscopy and NMR. These characterization data elucidated that the hexose and heptose were 2-hydroxymethyl-1,2,4,5-tetrahydroxy-3-pentanone (C6*) and 2,4-bis(hydroxymethyl)-1,2,4,5-tetrahydroxy-3-pentanone (C7*), respectively. On the basis of these observations, as well as density functional theory calculations, a plausible reaction pathway was also discussed; once 1,3-dihydroxyacetone is formed, consecutive aldol reactions favorably occur to form C6* and C7*.

Abstract
The concurrent conversion of CH4 and CO2 into acetic acid is an ideal route to migrate the two greenhouse gases and manufacture a high-value-added C2 product with an atom economy of 100% but remains challenging due to the chemical inertness of both gases. By leveraging density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we report herein the computational design of metal-alkoxide-functionalized metal-organic framework (MOF) UiO-67 with well-defined dual sites that can activate CH4 and CO2 cooperatively to boost acetic acid synthesis. The dual sites are distributed on two adjacent functionalized organic linkers originating from the same node and feature a metal-metal distance of about 6-7 Å. Initially, a total of 13 single-site metal-alkoxide-functionalized UiO-67s (including three alkaline earth metals and 10 transition metals) are examined; then, favorable metal-alkoxides are identified and further used to design dual-site metal-alkoxide-functionalized UiO-67s for converting CH4 and CO2 into acetic acid. Detailed mechanistic investigation predicts that the dual-site UiO-67s functionalized with Mn-, Fe-, Co-, Ni-. and Zn-alkoxide are highly promising catalysts for this reaction. Compared to the single-site counterparts, the metal pair-site UiO-67s provide a subtle microenvironment for synergistic dual activation of CH4 and CO2, thus efficiently stabilizing the transition state and substantially reducing the reaction barrier for C-C coupling. The microscopic insights and design strategies in this work might advance the development of efficient MOF-based catalysts with built-in cooperative active sites toward direct acetic acid synthesis from CH4 and CO2.

Abstract
The electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR) is a promising method to realize carbon recycling and sustainable development because of its mild reaction conditions and capability to utilize the electric power generated by renewable energy such as solar, wind, or tidal energy to produce high-value-added liquid fuels and chemicals. However, it is still a great challenge to deeply understand the reaction mechanism of CO2RRs involving multiple chemical processes and multiple products due to the complexity of the traditional catalyst's surface. Organic ligand-protected metal nanoclusters (NCs) with accurate compositions and definite atom packing structures show advantages for revealing the reaction mechanism of CO2RRs. This Review focuses on the recent progress in CO2RRs catalyzed by atomically precise metal NCs, including gold, copper, and silver NCs. Particularly, the influences of charge, ligand, surface structure, doping of Au NCs, and binders on the CO2RR are discussed in detail. Meanwhile the reaction mechanisms of CO2RRs including the active sites and the key reaction intermediates are also discussed. It is expected that progress in this research area could promote the development of metal NCs and CO2RRs.

Abstract
The activation and conversion of the CO2 molecule have always been the most vexing challenge due to its chemical inertness. Developing highly active catalysts, which could overcome dynamic limitations, has emerged as a provable and effective method to promote CO2 activation-conversion. Herein, ETS-10 zeolite-based catalysts, with active nickel species introduced by in situ doping and impregnation, have been employed for CO2 methanation. Conspicuous CO2 conversion (39.7%) and perfect CH4 selectivity (100%) were achieved over the Ni-doped ETS-10 zeolite catalyst at 280°C. Comprehensive analysis, which include X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption, SEM, TEM, H2 chemisorption, CO2 temperature programmed desorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, was performed. Also, the results indicated that the resultant hierarchical structure, high metal dispersion, and excellent CO2 adsorption-activation capacity of the Ni-doped ETS-10 zeolite catalyst played a dominant role in promoting CO2 conversion and product selectivity.

Abstract
Zeolites with ordered microporous systems, distinct framework topologies, good spatial nanoconfinement effects, and superior (hydro)thermal stability are an ideal scaffold for planting diverse active metal species, including single sites, clusters, and nanoparticles in the framework and framework-associated sites and extra-framework positions, thus affording the metal-in-zeolite catalysts outstanding activity, unique shape selectivity, and enhanced stability and recyclability in the processes of Brønsted acid-, Lewis acid-, and extra-framework metal-catalyzed reactions. Especially, thanks to the advances in zeolite synthesis and characterization techniques in recent years, zeolite-confined extra-framework metal catalysts (denoted as metal@zeolite composites) have experienced rapid development in heterogeneous catalysis, owing to the combination of the merits of both active metal sites and zeolite intrinsic properties. In this review, we will present the recent developments of synthesis strategies for incorporating and tailoring of active metal sites in zeolites and advanced characterization techniques for identification of the location, distribution, and coordination environment of metal species in zeolites. Furthermore, the catalytic applications of metal-in-zeolite catalysts are demonstrated, with an emphasis on the metal@zeolite composites in hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, and oxidation reactions. Finally, we point out the current challenges and future perspectives on precise synthesis, atomic level identification, and practical application of the metal-in-zeolite catalyst system.

Abstract
Understanding the site interaction nature of single-atom catalysts (SACs), especially densely populated SACs, is vital for their application to various catalytic reactions. Herein, we report a site distance effect, which emphasizes how well the distance of the adjacent copper atoms (denoted as dCu1-Cu1 ) matches with the reactant peroxydisulfate (PDS) molecular size to determine the Fenton-like reaction reactivity on the carbon-supported SACs. The optimized dCu1-Cu1 in the range of 5-6 Å, which matches the molecular size of PDS, endows the catalyst with a nearly two times higher turnover frequency than that of dCu1-Cu1 beyond this range, accordingly achieving record-breaking kinetics for the oxidation of emerging organic contaminants. Further studies suggest that this site distance effect originates from the alteration of PDS adsorption to a dual-site structure on Cu1 -Cu1 sites when dCu1-Cu1 falls within 5-6 Å, significantly enhancing the interfacial charge transfer and consequently resulting in the most efficient catalyst for PDS activation so far.

Abstract
The rapid economic and societal development have led to unprecedented energy demand and consumption resulting in the harmful emission of pollutants. Hence, the conversion of greenhouse gases into valuable chemicals and fuels has become an urgent challenge for the scientific community. In recent decades, perovskite-type mixed oxide-based catalysts have attracted significant attention as efficient CO2 conversion catalysts due to the characteristics of both reversible oxygen storage capacity and stable structure compared to traditional oxide-supported catalysts. In this review, we hand over a comprehensive overview of the research for CO2 conversion by these emerging perovskite-type mixed oxide-based catalysts. Three main CO2 conversions, namely reverse water gas shift reaction, CO2 methanation, and CO2 reforming of methane have been introduced over perovskite-type mixed oxide-based catalysts and their reaction mechanisms. Different approaches for promoting activity and resisting carbon deposition have also been discussed, involving increased oxygen vacancies, enhanced dispersion of active metal, and fine-tuning strong metal-support interactions. Finally, the current challenges are mooted, and we have proposed future research prospects in this field to inspire more sensational breakthroughs in the material and environment fields.

Abstract
We report the visible-light-induced in situ preparation of COCl2 through the oxygenation of chloroform in the presence of chlorine dioxide, which leads to the safe constructions of carbamoyl chlorides with good-to-high yields and wide substrate scopes. In addition, this method can also be applied to the synthesis of various carbonates.

Abstract
In recent years, the catalytic dry reforming of methane (DRM) has increasingly come into academic focus. The interesting aspect of this reaction is seemingly the conversion of CO2 and methane, two greenhouse gases, into a valuable synthesis gas (syngas) mixture with an otherwise unachievable but industrially relevant H2/CO ratio of one. In a possible scenario, the chemical conversion of CO2 and CH4 to syngas could be used in consecutive reactions to produce synthetic fuels, with combustion to harness the stored energy. Although the educts of DRM suggest a superior impact of this reaction to mitigate global warming, its potential as a chemical energy converter and greenhouse gas absorber has still to be elucidated. In this review article, we will provide insights into the industrial maturity of this reaction and critically discuss its applicability as a cornerstone in the energy transition. We derive these insights from assessing the current state of research and knowledge on DRM. We conclude that the entire industrial process of syngas production from two greenhouse gases, including heating with current technologies, releases at least 1.23 moles of CO2 per mol of CO2 converted in the catalytic reaction. Furthermore, we show that synthetic fuels derived from this reaction exhibit a negative carbon dioxide capturing efficiency which is similar to burning methane directly in the air. We also outline potential applications and introduce prospective technologies toward a net-zero CO2 strategy based on DRM.
