Abstract
Iron-containing zeolite-based catalysts play a pivotal role in environmental processes aimed at mitigating the release of harmful greenhouse gases, such as nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4). Despite the rich iron chemistry in zeolites, only a fraction of iron species that exhibit an open coordination sphere and possess the ability for electron transfer are responsible for activating reagents. In addition, the splitting of molecular oxygen is facilitated by bare iron cations embedded in zeolitic matrices. Mössbauer spectroscopy is the ideal tool for investigating the valency and geometry of iron species in zeolites because it leaves no iron forms silent and provides insights into in-situ processes. This review is dedicated to the utilization of Mössbauer spectroscopy to elucidate the nature of the extra-framework iron centers in ferrierite (FER), beta-structured (*BEA), and ZSM-5 zeolite (MFI) zeolites, which are active in N2O decomposition and CH4 oxidation through using the active oxygen derived from N2O and O2. In this work, a structured summary of the Mössbauer parameters established over the last two decades is presented, characterizing the specific iron active centers and intermediates formed upon iron's interaction with N2O/O2 and CH4. Additionally, the impact of preparation methods, iron loading, and the long-term stability on iron speciation and its redox behavior under reaction conditions is discussed.

Abstract
The pursuit of high metal utilization in heterogeneous catalysis has triggered the burgeoning interest of various atomically dispersed catalysts. Our aim in this review is to assess key recent findings in the synthesis, characterization, structure-property relationship and computational studies of dual-atom catalysts (DACs), which cover the full spectrum of applications in thermocatalysis, electrocatalysis and photocatalysis. In particular, combination of qualitative and quantitative characterization with cooperation with DFT insights, synergies and superiorities of DACs compare to counterparts, high-throughput catalyst exploration and screening with machine-learning algorithms are highlighted. Undoubtably, it would be wise to expect more fascinating developments in the field of DACs as tunable catalysts.

DFT Study on the Combined Catalytic Removal of N2O, NO, and NO2 over Binuclear Cu-ZSM-5. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
The large amount of nitrogen oxides (N2O, NO, NO2, etc.) contained in the flue gas of industrial adipic acid production will seriously damage the environment. A designed binuclear Cu-ZSM-5 catalyst can be applied to decompose N2O and reduce NO and NO2, purifying the air environment. Using the density functional theory method, the catalytic decomposition mechanisms of N2O, NOX-NH3-SCR, and NOX-assisted N2O decomposition is simulated over the Cu-ZSM-5 model. The results indicate that N2O can be catalytically decomposed over the binuclear Cu active site in the sinusoidal channel. The speed-limiting step is the second N2O molecule activation process. After the decomposition of the first N2O molecule, a stable extra-frame [Cu-O-Cu]2+ structure will generate. The subsequent discussion proved that the NOX-NH3-SCR reaction can be realized over the [Cu-O-Cu]2+ active site. In addition, it proved that the decomposition reaction of NO and NO2 can be carried out over the [Cu-O-Cu]2+ active site, and NO can greatly reduce the energy barrier for the conversion of the active site from [Cu-O-Cu]2+ to the binuclear Cu form, while NO2 can be slightly reduced. Through discussion, it is found that the binuclear Cu-ZSM-5 can realize the combined removal of N2O and NOX from adipic acid flue gas, hoping to provide a theoretical basis for the development of a dual-functional catalyst.

Abstract
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is an important ozone-depletion substance and greenhouse gas. Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of N2O by CO is considered an effective method for N2O elimination. However, O2 exhibited a significant inhibition effect on the catalytic performance of N2O reduction by CO. A series of iron-based catalysts were prepared to investigate the effect of O2 in SCR of N2O by CO. The Fe-Z-pH2 (Fe-ZSM-5 ion-exchanged under pH of 2) catalyst manifested superior activity at low temperature and excellent O2 resistance in N2O reduction process. The characterization results from UV-vis DR spectra and XPS indicated that α-sites are the main active sites in Fe-Z-pH2, and they were inert to O2 but highly active to N2O. It could be concluded that the competition effect between N2O and O2 was very important over different catalysts. O2 is more prevalent over α-Fe2O3 catalyst, while N2O dominates over Fe-Z-pH2 catalyst. Moreover, in the presence of O2, Fe-Z-pH2 exhibited better performance for N2O removal than non-noble mixed oxide catalysts, which might broaden the application of low-temperature SCR of N2O by CO.

Abstract
A systematic molecular level and spectroscopic investigation is presented to show the cooperative role of Brønsted acid and Lewis acid sites in zeolites for the conversion of methanol. Extra-framework alkaline-earth metal containing species and aluminum species decrease the number of Brønsted acid sites, as protonated metal clusters are formed. A combined experimental and theoretical effort shows that postsynthetically modified ZSM-5 zeolites, by incorporation of extra-framework alkaline-earth metals or by demetalation with dealuminating agents, contain both mononuclear [MOH]+ and double protonated binuclear metal clusters [M(μ-OH)2M]2+ (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, and HOAl). The metal in the extra-framework clusters has a Lewis acid character, which is confirmed experimentally and theoretically by IR spectra of adsorbed pyridine. The strength of the Lewis acid sites (Mg > Ca > Sr > Ba) was characterized by a blue shift of characteristic IR peaks, thus offering a tool to sample Lewis acidity experimentally. The incorporation of extra-framework Lewis acid sites has a substantial influence on the reactivity of propene and benzene methylations. Alkaline-earth Lewis acid sites yield increased benzene methylation barriers and destabilization of typical aromatic intermediates, whereas propene methylation routes are less affected. The effect on the catalytic function is especially induced by the double protonated binuclear species. Overall, the extra-framework metal clusters have a dual effect on the catalytic function. By reducing the number of Brønsted acid sites and suppressing typical catalytic reactions in which aromatics are involved, an optimal propene selectivity and increased lifetime for methanol conversion over zeolites is obtained. The combined experimental and theoretical approach gives a unique insight into the nature of the supramolecular zeolite catalyst for methanol conversion which can be meticulously tuned by subtle interplay of Brønsted and Lewis acid sites.

Abstract
An increased synergy between experimental and theoretical investigations in heterogeneous catalysis has become apparent during the last decade. Experimental work has extended from ultra-high vacuum and low temperature towards operando conditions. These developments have motivated the computational community to move from standard descriptive computational models, based on inspection of the potential energy surface at 0 K and low reactant concentrations (0 K/UHV model), to more realistic conditions. The transition from 0 K/UHV to operando models has been backed by significant developments in computer hardware and software over the past few decades. New methodological developments, designed to overcome part of the gap between 0 K/UHV and operando conditions, include (i) global optimization techniques, (ii) ab initio constrained thermodynamics, (iii) biased molecular dynamics, (iv) microkinetic models of reaction networks and (v) machine learning approaches. The importance of the transition is highlighted by discussing how the molecular level picture of catalytic sites and the associated reaction mechanisms changes when the chemical environment, pressure and temperature effects are correctly accounted for in molecular simulations. It is the purpose of this review to discuss each method on an equal footing, and to draw connections between methods, particularly where they may be applied in combination.

Abstract
The influence of Fe speciation on the decomposition rates of N2O over Fe-ZSM-5 catalysts prepared by Chemical Vapour Impregnation were investigated. Various weight loadings of Fe-ZSM-5 catalysts were prepared from the parent zeolite H-ZSM-5 with a Si:Al ratio of 23 or 30. The effect of Si:Al ratio and Fe weight loading was initially investigated before focussing on a single weight loading and the effects of acid washing on catalyst activity and iron speciation. UV/Vis spectroscopy, surface area analysis, XPS and ICP-OES of the acid washed catalysts indicated a reduction of ca. 60% of Fe loading when compared to the parent catalyst with a 0.4 wt% Fe loading. The TOF of N2O decomposition at 600 °C improved to 3.99 × 103 s-1 over the acid washed catalyst which had a weight loading of 0.16%, in contrast, the parent catalyst had a TOF of 1.60 × 103 s-1. Propane was added to the gas stream to act as a reductant and remove any inhibiting oxygen species that remain on the surface of the catalyst. Comparison of catalysts with relatively high and low Fe loadings achieved comparable levels of N2O decomposition when propane is present. When only N2O is present, low metal loading Fe-ZSM-5 catalysts are not capable of achieving high conversions due to the low proximity of active framework Fe3+ ions and extra-framework ɑ-Fe species, which limits oxygen desorption. Acid washing extracts Fe from these active sites and deposits it on the surface of the catalyst as FexOy, leading to a drop in activity. The Fe species present in the catalyst were identified using UV/Vis spectroscopy and speculate on the active species. We consider high loadings of Fe do not lead to an active catalyst when propane is present due to the formation of FexOy nanoparticles and clusters during catalyst preparation. These are inactive species which lead to a decrease in overall efficiency of the Fe ions and consequentially a lower TOF.

Abstract
DFT calculations suggest [Ni2(μ-O)2]2+ and [Ni3(μ-O)3]2+ species as two possible active sites in methane hydroxylation by Ni-ZSM-5 zeolite. Both of them are predicted to activate methane and desorb the formed methanol with low activation and desorption energies.

Abstract
In this review we focus on the catalytic removal of a series of N-containing exhaust gases with various valences, including nitriles (HCN, CH3CN, and C2H3CN), ammonia (NH3), nitrous oxide (N2O), and nitric oxides (NO(x)), which can cause some serious environmental problems, such as acid rain, haze weather, global warming, and even death. The zeolite catalysts with high internal surface areas, uniform pore systems, considerable ion-exchange capabilities, and satisfactory thermal stabilities are herein addressed for the corresponding depollution processes. The sources and toxicities of these pollutants are introduced. The important physicochemical properties of zeolite catalysts, including shape selectivity, surface area, acidity, and redox ability, are described in detail. The catalytic combustion of nitriles and ammonia, the direct catalytic decomposition of N2O, and the selective catalytic reduction and direct catalytic decomposition of NO are systematically discussed, involving the catalytic behaviors as well as mechanism studies based on spectroscopic and kinetic approaches and molecular simulations. Finally, concluding remarks and perspectives are given. In the present work, emphasis is placed on the structure-performance relationship with an aim to design an ideal zeolite-based catalyst for the effective elimination of harmful N-containing compounds.
