Abstract
Electrocatalytic water splitting driven by renewable electricity has attracted great interest in recent years for producing hydrogen with high-purity. However, the practical applications of this technology are limited by the development of electrocatalysts with high activity, low cost, and long durability. In the search for new electrocatalysts, computational chemistry has made outstanding contributions by providing fundamental laws that govern the electron behavior and enabling predictions of electrocatalyst performance. This review delves into theoretical studies on electrochemical water-splitting processes. Firstly, we introduce the fundamentals of electrochemical water electrolysis and subsequently discuss the current advancements in computational methods and models for electrocatalytic water splitting. Additionally, a comprehensive overview of benchmark descriptors is provided to aid in understanding intrinsic catalytic performance for water-splitting electrocatalysts. Finally, we critically evaluate the remaining challenges within this field.

Abstract
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) are expected to become one of the most promising functional materials in the field of electrocatalysis due to their site-occupancy disorder and lattice order. The chemical complexity and component tunability make it possible for them to obtain a nearly continuous distribution of adsorption energy curve, which means that the optimal adsorption strength and maximum activity can be obtained by a multi-alloying strategy. In the last decade, a great deal of research has been performed on the synthesis, element selection and catalytic applications of HEAs. In this review, we focus on the analysis and summary of the advantages, design ideas and optimization strategies of HEAs in electrocatalysis. Combined with experiments and theories, the advantages of high activity and high stability of HEAs are explored in depth. According to the classification of catalytic reactions, how to design high-performance HEA catalysts is proposed. More importantly, efficient strategies for optimizing HEA catalysts are provided, including element regulation, defect regulation and strain engineering. Finally, we point out the challenges that HEAs will face in the future, and put forward some personal proposals. This work provides a deep understanding and important reference for electrocatalytic applications of HEAs.

Abstract
As a highly promising clean energy source to replace fossil fuels in the 21st century, hydrogen energy has garnered considerable attention, with water electrolysis emerging as a key hydrogen production technology. The development of highly active and stable non-precious metal-based catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucial for achieving efficient and low-cost hydrogen production through electrolysis. Recently, heterostructure composite catalysts comprising two or more non-precious metals have demonstrated outstanding catalytic performance. First, we introduced the basic mechanism of the HER and, based on the reported HER theory, discussed the essence of constructing heterostructures to improve the catalytic activity of non-noble metal-based catalysts, that is, the coupling effect between components effectively regulates the electronic structure and the position of d-band centers. Then three catalytic effects of non-precious metal-based heterogeneous catalysts are described: synergistic effect, electron transfer effect and support effect. Lastly, we emphasized the potential of non-precious metal-based heterogeneous catalysts to replace precious metal-based catalysts, and summarized the future prospects and challenges.

Abstract
To investigate the catalytic mechanism and mass transfer efficiency in the removal of amitriptyline using an electro-peroxide process, a CuFe2O4-modified carbon cloth cathode was prepared and utilized in a reaction unit. The results demonstrated a remarkable efficacy of the system, achieving 91.0% amitriptyline removal, 68.3% mineralization, 41.2% mineralization current efficiency, and 0.24 kWh/m3 energy consumption within just five minutes of treatment. The study revealed that the exposed Fe atoms of the ferrite nanoparticles, with a size of 22.7 nm and 89.7% crystallinity, functioned as mediators to bind the adsorbed O atoms. The 3dxy, 3dxz, and 3d2z orbitals of Fe atoms interacted with the 2pz orbital of O atoms of H2O2 and O3 to form σ and π bonds, facilitating the adsorption-activation of H2O2 and O3 into hydroxyl radicals. These hydroxyl radicals (∼ 1.15 × 1013 mol/L) were distributed at the cathode-solution interface and rapidly consumed along the direction of liquid flow. The flow-through cathode design improved the mass transfer of aqueous O3 and in-situ generated H2O2, leading to an increased yield of hydroxyl radicals, as well as the contact time and space between hydroxyl radicals and amitriptyline. Ultimately, this resulted in a higher degradation efficiency of the system.

Abstract
CO2 can be electrochemically reduced to different products depending on the nature of catalysts. In this work, we report comprehensive kinetic studies on catalytic selectivity and product distribution of the CO2 reduction reaction on various metal surfaces. The influences on reaction kinetics can be clearly analyzed from the variation of reaction driving force (binding energy difference) and reaction resistance (reorganization energy). Moreover, the CO2RR product distributions are further affected by external factors such as electrode potential and solution pH. A potential-mediated mechanism is found to determine the competing two-electron reduction products of CO2 that shifts from thermodynamics-controlled product formic acid at less negative electrode potentials to kinetic-controlled product CO at more negative electrode potentials. Based on detailed kinetic simulations, a three-parameter descriptor is applied to identify the catalytic selectivity of CO, formate, hydrocarbons/alcohols, as well as side product H2. The present kinetic study not only well explains the catalytic selectivity and product distribution of experimental results but also provides a fast way for catalyst screening.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) species can deposit in selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system during the denitrification process, which is harmful to the catalyst. To improve the Se-poisoning resistance of SCR catalysts, the influence mechanism of Se species on vanadium-titanium-based catalysts should be elucidated from an atomic scale. In this paper, theoretical calculations were conducted to reveal the adsorption and interaction mechanism of Se species on V2O5-WO3(MoO3)/TiO2 surface based on the first-principles. The impact of Se species on the electronic structure of the catalyst was investigated from electron transfer, bond formation, and VO site activity. The results show that the adsorption of elementary Se (Se0) belongs to chemisorption, while SeO2 can undergo both physisorption and chemisorption. For the chemisorption of Se species, obvious charge transfer with the catalyst is observed and Se-O bond is formed, which enhances the oxidation activity of the catalyst, triggers the reaction of Se0 and SeO2 with the catalyst components to generate SeVOx and SeW(Mo)Ox. The active sites are thereby damaged and the SCR performance is reduced. The above conclusions are mutually confirmed with the previous experimental research. By studying the correlation with the adsorption energies of Se species, descriptors manifesting the Se species adsorption were initially investigated to unveil the relationship between the electronic structure and the adsorption energy. Finally, the influence of temperature on Se adsorption was investigated. The adsorption can only proceed spontaneously below 500 K and is inhibited at high temperatures.

Abstract
AbstractReaction rates in a two-step catalytic sequence, when plotted vs adsorption energy of the key or the most abundant surface intermediate, result in volcano shaped curves. In the current work, the optimal catalyst is discussed for structure sensitive reactions, which display dependence of activity on the cluster size of the active catalytic phase. An expression is derived relating the Gibbs energy for formation of the intermediate with the Gibbs energy changes in the overall reaction, difference in adsorption thermodynamics on edges and terraces and the cluster size. The kinetic expressions display dependence of activity vs the Gibbs energy of the adsorbed intermediate formation. Numerical analysis demonstrates that when the overall equilibrium constant K is high and the reaction is thermodynamically very favorable, the maxima in the rates vs the adsorption constant for the optimal catalyst are much broader being less dependent on the cluster size. When structure sensitivity is pronounced, there are smaller differences in the rates for the optimum and less optimal catalysts in comparison with reactions showing weak structure sensitivity.
