Abstract
With the escalating global demand for electric vehicles and sustainable energy solutions, increasing focus is placed on developing electrochemical systems that offer fast charging and high-power output, primarily governed by mass transport. Accordingly, porous carbons have emerged as highly promising electrochemically active or supporting materials due to expansive surface areas, tunable pore structures, and superior electrical conductivity, accelerating surface reaction. Yet, while substantial research has been devoted to crafting various porous carbons to increase specific surface areas, the optimal utilization of the surfaces remains underexplored. This review emphasizes the critical role of the fluid dynamics within multiscale porous carbonaceous electrodes, leading to substantially enhanced pore utilization in electrochemical systems. It elaborates on strategies of using sacrificial templates for incorporating meso/macropores into microporous carbon matrix, while exploiting the unique properties of polyphenol moieties such as sustainable carbons derived from biomass, inherent adhesive/cohesive interactions with template materials, and facile complexation capabilities with diverse materials, thereby enabling adaptive structural modulations. Furthermore, it explores how multiscale pore configurations influence pore-utilization efficiency, demonstrating advantages of incorporating multiscale pores. Finally, synergistic impact on the high-power electrochemical systems is examined, attributed to improved fluid-dynamic behavior within the carbonaceous frameworks, providing insights for advancing next-generation high-power electrochemical applications.

Liu S, Wang A, Liu Y, Zhou W, Wen H, Zhang H, Sun K, Li S, Zhou J, Wang Y, Jiang J, Li B. Catalytically Active Carbon for Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Energy Conversion: Recent Advances and Future Perspectives. ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024; 11:e2308040.

Abstract
The shortage and unevenness of fossil energy sources are affecting the development and progress of human civilization. The technology of efficiently converting material resources into energy for utilization and storage is attracting the attention of researchers. Environmentally friendly biomass materials are a treasure to drive the development of new-generation energy sources. Electrochemical theory is used to efficiently convert the chemical energy of chemical substances into electrical energy. In recent years, significant progress has been made in the development of green and economical electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Although many reviews have been reported around the application of biomass-derived catalytically active carbon (CAC) catalysts in ORR, these reviews have only selected a single/partial topic (including synthesis and preparation of catalysts from different sources, structural optimization, or performance enhancement methods based on CAC catalysts, and application of biomass-derived CACs) for discussion. There is no review that systematically addresses the latest progress in the synthesis, performance enhancement, and applications related to biomass-derived CAC-based oxygen reduction electrocatalysts synchronously. This review fills the gap by providing a timely and comprehensive review and summary from the following sections: the exposition of the basic catalytic principles of ORR, the summary of the chemical composition and structural properties of various types of biomass, the analysis of traditional and the latest popular biomass-derived CAC synthesis methods and optimization strategies, and the summary of the practical applications of biomass-derived CAC-based oxidative reduction electrocatalysts. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the latest advances to provide research directions and design ideas for the development of catalyst synthesis/optimization and contributes to the industrialization of biomass-derived CAC electrocatalysis and electric energy storage.

Efficient immobilization and detoxification of gaseous elemental mercury by nanoflower/rod WSe 2/halloysite composite: Performance and mechanisms. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 458:131898. [PMID: 37354718 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131898] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2023] [Revised: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 06/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/26/2023]
Abstract
Gaseous mercury pollution control technologies with low stability and high releasing risks always face with great challenges. Herein, we developed one halloysite nanotubes (HNTs)-supported tungsten diselenide (WSe2) composite (WSe2/HNTs) by one-pot solvothermal approach, curing Hg0 from complicated flue gas (CFG) and reducing second environment risks. WSe2 as a monolayer with nano-flower structure and HNTs with rod shapes in the as-prepared sorbent exhibited outstanding synergy efficiency, resulting in exceptional performance for Hg0 removal with high capture capacity of 30.6 mg·g-1 and rate of 9.09 μg·g-1·min-1, which benefited from the high affinity of selenium and mercury (1 ×1045) and the adequate exposure of Se-terminated. The adsorbent showed beneficial tolerance to high amount of NOx and SOx. An online lab-built thermal decomposition system (TPD-AFS) was employed to explore Hg species on the used-sorbent, finding that the adsorbed-mercury species were principally mercury selenide (HgSe). Density functional theory calculations indicated that the hollow-sites were the major adsorption sites and exhibited excellent selectivity for Hg0, as well as HgSe generation needed to overcome the 0.32 eV energy barrier. The adsorbed mercury displayed high environmental stability after the leaching toxicity test, which significantly decreased its secondary environmental risks. With these advantages, WSe2/HNTs possess enormous potential to achieve the effective and permanent immobilization of gaseous mercury from CFG in the future.

Abstract
Generally, dark fermentation (DF) of hydrogen (H2) synthesis has low H2 production from industrial-scale plant. In this study, campus greening wastes-ginkgo leaves were used to produce molten salt-modified biochar (MSBC) and nitrogen (N2)-atmosphere BC (NBC) in molten salt and N2 environment at 800 °C, respectively. MSBC showed excellent properties including high specific surface area and electron transfer ability. After supplementation with MSBC, H2 yield rose by 32.4% compared to the control group without carbon material. Electrochemical analysis revealed MSBC improved the electrochemical properties of sludge. Furthermore, MSBC optimized the microbial community structure and increased the relative abundance of dominant microbes, thus promoting H2 production. This work is provide the deep understanding of two carbons that play vital roles in increasing microbial biomass, supplementing trace element and favoring electron transfer in DF reactions. Salt recovery achieved 93.57% in molten salt carbonization, which has sustainability compared with N2-atmosphere pyrolysis.

Abstract
The emergence and development of thick electrodes provide an efficient way for the high-energy-density supercapacitor design. Wood is a kind of biomass material with porous hierarchical structure, which has the characteristics of a straight channel, uniform pore structure, good mechanical strength, and easy processing. The wood-inspired low-tortuosity and vertically aligned channel architecture are highly suitable for the construction of thick electrochemical supcapacitor electrodes with high energy densities. This review summarizes the design concepts and processing parameters of thick electrode supercapacitors inspired by natural woods, including wood-based pore structural design regulation, electric double layer capacitances (EDLCs)/pseudocapacitance construction, and electrical conductivity optimization. In addition, the optimization strategies for preparing thick electrodes with wood-like structures (e.g., 3D printing, freeze-drying, and aligned-low tortuosity channels) are also discussed in detail. Further, this review presents current challenges and future trends in the design of thick electrodes for supercapacitors with wood-inspired pore structures. As a guideline, the brilliant blueprint optimization will promote sustainable development of wood-inspired structure design for thick electrodes and broaden the application scopes.

Abstract
It is significant for saving energy to manufacture superb-property batteries. Carbon is one of the most competitive anode materials in batteries, but it is hard for commercial graphite anodes to meet the increasingly higher energy-storage requirements. Moreover, the price of other better-performing carbon materials (such as graphene) is much higher than graphite, which is not conducive to massive production. Pitch, the cheap by-product in the petroleum and coal industries, has high carbon content and yield, making it possible for commercialization. Developing pitch-based anodes can not only lower raw material costs but also realize the pitch's high value-added utilization. We comprehensively reviewed the latest synthesis strategies of pitch-derived materials and then introduced their application and research progress in lithium, sodium, and potassium ion batteries (LIBs, SIBs, and PIBs). Finally, we summarize and suggest the pitch's development trend for anodes and in other fields.

Abstract
Active oxygen species (AOS) play an essential role in modulating the activity of activated coke (AC) based samples. In this paper, AC was endowed with abundant AOS by modifying with (NH4)2S2O8 and MnOx-FeOx for Hg0 removal. (NH4)2S2O8 treatment induced abundant micropores and oxygen-containing functional groups, and thus provided more anchoring sites for the dispersion of MnOx-FeOx. The synergy of MnOx-FeOx and interaction between MnOx-FeOx and NAC support contributed to a larger surface area, highly-dispersed active components, stronger reducibility, and more metal ions with high valence of MnFe/NAC. The optimal MnFe/NAC exhibited superior Hg0 removal efficiency above 90% at 120∼180 ℃, as well as excellent performance for simultaneous removal of Hg0 and NO, and 600 ppm SO2 and 8 vol.% H2O addition led to a slight deterioration. XPS and Hg-TPD revealed that mercury adsorbed on MnFe/NAC included phy-Hg, C=O-Hg, COO-Hg, and OL-HgO. Besides, the priority of AOS for Hg0 chemisorption was C=O > COO- > OL, and Hg2+ was also detected in the outlet. Moreover, the SO2-poisoning effect was ascribed to the sulfation of MnOx and the occupation of COO- and C=O, and FeOx incorporation enhanced the SO2-resistance through weakening SO2 adsorption on C=O and COO-. The motivation of O2 mainly contributed to the regeneration of AOS, especially OL. The excellent regeneration performance and stability further affirmed the application potential of MnFe/NAC for Hg0 capture from coal-fired flue gas.
