Abstract
Microbial desalination cells (MDCs) are considered as a sustainable technology for water desalination, wastewater treatment, and power generation. However, this neoteric technology suffers from different challenges, including sluggish oxygen reduction reaction and poor electron transfer from microbes to electrodes, ultimately leading to less power generation and desalination efficiency. This review delves into the intricate roles of both abiotic and biocatalysts in enhancing performance of MDCs through ion removal and charge transfer mechanisms. Detailed discussions highlight the comparative advantages and limitations of different catalyst types and insights into electrode modifications to optimise catalytic activity and biofilm formation. Further, recent advancements in electrode engineering, including surface coatings and integration of nanomaterial, geared towards enhancing efficiency of MDC and performance stability are discussed. Finally, future recommendations are provided, focusing on innovative catalyst designs, material integration, and considerations for scale-up and commercialisation, thereby offering a comprehensive roadmap for the continued advancement of MDC.

Real-time investigation of reactive oxygen species and radicals evolved from operating Fe-N-C electrocatalysts during the ORR: potential dependence, impact on degradation, and structural comparisons. Chem Sci 2024; 15:10036-10045.

Abstract
Improving the stability of platinum-group-metal-free (PGM-free) catalysts is a critical roadblock to the development of economically feasible energy storage and conversion technologies. Fe-N-C catalysts, the most promising class of PGM-free catalysts, suffer from rapid degradation. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) has been proposed as a central cause of this loss of activity. However, there is insufficient understanding of the generation and dynamics of ROS under catalytic conditions due to the difficulty of detecting and quantifying short-lived ROS such as the hydroxyl radical, OH˙. To accomplish this, we use operando scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) to probe the production of radicals by a commercial pyrolyzed Fe-N-C catalyst in real-time using a redox-active spin trap methodology. SECM showed the monotonic production of OH˙ which followed the ORR activity. Our results were thoroughly backed using electron spin resonance confirmation to show that the hydroxyl radical is the dominant radical species produced. Furthermore, OH˙ and H2O2 production followed distinct trends. ROS studied as a function of catalyst degradation also showed a decreased production, suggesting its relation to the catalytic activity of the sample. The structural origins of ROS production were also probed using model systems such as iron phthalocyanine (FePc) and Fe3O4 nanoparticles, both of which showed significant generation of OH˙ during the ORR. These results provide a comprehensive insight into the critical, yet under-studied, aspects of the production and effects of ROS on electrocatalytic systems and open the door for further mechanistic and kinetic investigation using SECM.

Abstract
The single-atom Fe-N-C is a prominent material with exceptional reactivity in areas of sustainable energy and catalysis research. It is challenging to obtain the dense Fe-N4 site without the Fe nanoparticles (NPs) sintering during the Fe-N-C synthesis via high-temperature pyrolysis. Thus, a novel approach is devised for the Fe-N-C synthesis at low temperatures. Taking FeCl2 as Fe source, a hydrogen environment can facilitate oxygen removal and dichlorination processes in the synthesis, efficiently favouring Fe-N4 site formation without Fe NPs clustering at as low as 360 °C. We shed light on the reaction mechanism about hydrogen promoting Fe-N4 formation in the synthesis. By adjusting the temperature and duration, the Fe-N4 structural evolution and site density can be precisely tuned to directly influence the catalytic behaviour of the Fe-N-C material. The FeNC-H2-360 catalyst demonstrates a remarkable Fe dispersion (8.3 wt %) and superior acid ORR activity with a half-wave potential of 0.85 V and a peak power density of 1.21 W cm-2 in fuel cell. This method also generally facilitates the synthesis of various high-performance M-N-C materials (M=Fe, Co, Mn, Ni, Zn, Ru) with elevated single-atom loadings.

Abstract
The limited durability of metal-nitrogen-carbon electrocatalysts severely restricts their applicability for the oxygen reduction reaction in proton exchange membrane fuel cells. In this study, we employ the chemical vapor modification method to alter the configuration of active sites from FeN4 to the stable monosymmetric FeN2+N'2, along with enhancing the degree of graphitization in the carbon substrate. This improvement effectively addresses the challenges associated with Fe active center leaching caused by N-group protonation and free radicals attack due to the 2-electron oxygen reduction reaction. The electrocatalyst with neoteric active site exhibited excellent durability. During accelerated aging test, the electrocatalyst exhibited negligible decline in its half-wave potential even after undergoing 200,000 potential cycles. Furthermore, when subjected to operational conditions representative of fuel cell systems, the electrocatalyst displayed remarkable durability, sustaining stable performance for a duration exceeding 248 h. The significant improvement in durability provides highly valuable insights for the practical application of metal-nitrogen-carbon electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) offer an interesting opportunity for catalysis, particularly for metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C) motifs by providing an organized porous structural pattern and well-defined active sites for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), a key need for hydrogen fuel cells and related sustainable energy technologies. In this work, we leverage electrochemical testing with computational models to study the electronic and structural properties in the MOF systems and their relationship to ORR activity and stability based on dual transitional metal centers. The MOFs consist of two M1 metals with amine nodes coordinated to a single M2 metal with a phthalocyanine linker, where M1/M2 = Co, Ni, or Cu. Co-based metal centers, in particular Ni-Co, demonstrate the highest overall activity of all nine tested MOFs. Computationally, we identify the dominance of Co sites, relative higher importance of the M2 site, and the role of layer M1 interactions on the ORR activity. Selectivity measurements indicate that M1 sites of MOFs, particularly Co, exhibit the lowest (<4%), and Ni demonstrates the highest (>46%) two-electron selectivity, in good agreement with computational studies. Direct in situ stability characterization, measuring dissolved metal ions, and calculations, using an alkaline stability metric, confirm that Co is the most stable metal in the MOF, while Cu exhibits notable instability at the M1. Overall, this study reveals how atomistic coupling of electronic and structural properties affects the ORR performance of dual site MOF catalysts and opens new avenues for the tunable design and future development of these systems for practical electrochemical applications.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) are an emerging class of materials, leveraging maximum atom utilization and distinctive structural and electronic properties to bridge heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysis. Direct imaging methods, such as aberration-corrected high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy, are commonly applied to confirm the atomic dispersion of active sites. However, interpretations of data from these techniques can be challenging due to simultaneous contributions to intensity from impurities introduced during synthesis processes, as well as any variation in position relative to the focal plane of the electron beam. To address this matter, this paper presents a comprehensive study on two representative SACs containing isolated nickel or copper atoms. Spectroscopic techniques, including X-ray absorption spectroscopy, were employed to prove the high metal dispersion of the catalytic atoms. Employing scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging combined with single-atom-sensitive electron energy loss spectroscopy, we scrutinized thin specimens of the catalysts to provide an unambiguous chemical identification of the observed single-atom species and thereby distinguish impurities from active sites at the single-atom level. Overall, the study underscores the complexity of SACs characterization and establishes the importance of the use of spectroscopy in tandem with imaging at atomic resolution to fully and reliably characterize single-atom catalysts.

Abstract
Metal single-atom catalysts represent one of the most promising non-noble metal catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, they still suffer from insufficient activity and, particularly, durability for practical applications. Leveraging density functional theory (DFT) and machine learning (ML), we unravel an unexpected collective effect between FeN4OH sites, CeN4OH motifs, Fe nanoparticles (NPs), and Fe-CeO2 NPs. The collective effect comprises differently-weighted electronic and geometric interactions, whitch results in significantly enhanced ORR activity for FeN4OH active sites with a half-wave potential (E1/2) of 0.948 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode (VRHE) in alkaline, relative to a commercial Pt/C (E1/2, 0.851 VRHE). Meanwhile, this collective effect endows the shortened Fe-N bonds and the remarkable durability with negligible activity loss after 50,000 potential cycles. The ML was used to understand the intricate geometric and electronic interactions in collective effect and reveal the intrinsic descriptors to account for the enhanced ORR performance. The universality of collective effect was demonstrated effective for the Co, Ni, Cu, Cr, and Mn-based multicomponent ensembles. These results confirm the importance of collective effect to simultaneously improve catalytic activity and durability.

Abstract
Efforts to enhance the efficiency of electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in energy conversion and storage devices present formidable challenges. In this endeavor, M-N4-C single-atom catalysts (MN4) have emerged as promising candidates due to their precise atomic structure and adaptable electronic properties. However, MN4 catalysts inherently introduce oxygen functional groups (OGs), intricately influencing the catalytic process and complicating the identification of active sites. This study employs advanced density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the profound influence of OGs on ORR catalysis within MN4 catalysts (referred to as OGs@MN4, where M represents Fe or Co). We established the following activity order for the 2eORR: for OGs@CoN4: OH@CoN4 > CoN4 > CHO@CoN4 > C-O-C@CoN4 > COC@CoN4 > COOH@CoN4 > CO@CoN4; for OGs@FeN4: COC@FeN4 > CO@FeN4 > OH@FeN4 > FeN4 > COOH@FeN4 > CHO@FeN4 > C-O-C@FeN4. Multiple oxygen combinations were constructed and found to be the true origin of MN4 activity (for instance, the overpotential of 2OH@CoN4 as low as 0.07 V). Furthermore, we explored the performance of the OGs@MN4 system through charge and d-band center analysis, revealing the limitations of previous electron-withdrawing/donating strategies. Machine learning analysis, including GBR, GPR, and LINER models, effectively guides the prediction of catalyst performance (with an R2 value of 0.93 for predicting ΔG*OOH_vac in the GBR model). The Eg descriptor was identified as the primary factor characterizing ΔG*OOH_vac (accounting for 62.8%; OGs@CoN4: R2 = 0.9077, OGs@FeN4: R2 = 0.7781). This study unveils the significant impact of OGs on MN4 catalysts and pioneers design and synthesis criteria rooted in Eg. These innovative findings provide valuable insights into understanding the origins of catalytic activity and guiding the design of carbon-based single-atom catalysts, appealing to a broad audience interested in energy conversion technologies and materials science.

Abstract
Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted considerable attention in heterogeneous catalysis because of their well-defined active sites, maximum atomic utilization efficiency, and unique unsaturated coordinated structures. However, their effectiveness is limited to reactions requiring active sites containing multiple metal atoms. Furthermore, the loading amounts of single-atom sites must be restricted to prevent aggregation, which can adversely affect the catalytic performance despite the high activity of the individual atoms. The introduction of nanoscale metal particles (NMPs) into SACs (NMP-SACs) has proven to be an efficient approach for improving their catalytic performance. A comprehensive review is urgently needed to systematically introduce the synthesis, characterization, and application of NMP-SACs and the mechanisms behind their superior catalytic performance. This review first presents and classifies the different mechanisms through which NMPs enhance the performance of SACs. It then summarizes the currently reported synthetic strategies and state-of-the-art characterization techniques of NMP-SACs. Moreover, their application in electro/thermo/photocatalysis, and the reasons for their superior performance are discussed. Finally, the challenges and perspectives of NMP-SACs for the future design of advanced catalysts are addressed.

Abstract
Fe-N-C catalysts are currently the leading candidates to replace Pt-based catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction in proton exchange membrane fuel cells. To maximize their activity, it is necessary to optimize their structure to allow high active site density on one hand, and hierarchical porous structure that will allow good mass transport of reactants and products to and from the active sites on the other hand. Hence, the hierarchical structure of the catalyst plays an important role in the balance between the electrochemical active site density and the mass transport resistance. Aerogels were synthesized in this work to study the interplay between these two parameters. Aerogels are covalent organic frameworks with ultra-low density, high porosity, and large surface area. The relative ease of tuning the composition and pore structure of aerogels make them prominent candidates for catalysis. Herein, we report on a tunable Fe-N-C catalyst based on an Fe porphyrin aerogel, which shows high electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction activity with tunable hierarchical pore structure and studied the influence of the porous structure on the overall performance in proton exchange membrane fuel cells.

Abstract
Electrochemical reduction of oxygen into hydrogen peroxide in an acidic medium offers an energy-efficient and green H2 O2 synthesis as an alternative to the energy-intensive anthraquinone process. Unfortunately, high overpotential, low production rates, and fierce competition from traditional four-electron reduction limit it. In this study, a metalloenzyme-like active structure is mimicked in carbon-based single-atom electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction to H2 O2 . Using a carbonization strategy, the primary electronic structure of the metal center with nitrogen and oxygen coordination is modulated, followed by epoxy oxygen functionalities close to the metal active sites. In an acidic medium, CoNOC active structures proceed with greater than 98% H2 O2 selectivity (2e- /2H+ ) rather than CoNC active sites that are selective to H2 O (4e- /4H+ ). Among all MNOC (M = Fe, Co, Mn, and Ni) single-atom electrocatalysts, the CoNOC is the most selective (> 98%) for H2 O2 production, with a mass activity of 10 A g-1 at 0.60 V vs. RHE. X-ray absorption spectroscopy is used to identify the formation of unsymmetrical MNOC active structures. Experimental results are also compared to density functional theory calculations, which revealed that the structure-activity relationship of the epoxy-surrounded CoNOC active structure reaches optimum (ΔG*OOH ) binding energies for high selectivity.

Abstract
A constant increase in global emission standard is causing fuel cell (FC) technology to gain importance. Over the last two decades, a great deal of research has been focused on developing more active catalysts to boost the performance of high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (HT-PEMFC), as well as their durability. Due to material degradation at high-temperature conditions, catalyst design becomes challenging. Two main approaches are suggested: (i) alloying platinum (Pt) with low-cost transition metals to reduce Pt usage, and (ii) developing novel catalyst support that anchor metal particles more efficiently while inhibiting corrosion phenomena. In this comprehensive review, the most recent platinum group metal (PGM) and platinum group metal free (PGM-free) catalyst development is detailed, as well as the development of alternative carbon (C) supports for HT-PEMFCs.

Abstract
Tannic acid (TA) is a water-soluble polyphenol and used in beverages, medical fields as clarifying and additive agents. In daily life, TA is unavoidable, and excessive consumption of tannin containing foods can harm health. Thus, rapid and sensitive quantification is highly necessary. Herein, an eco-friendly fluorometric and electrochemical sensing of TA was developed based on a dysprosium(III)-metal-organic framework (Dy(III)-MOF). An aqueous dispersion of Dy(III)-MOF exhibits strong dual emissions at 479 and 572 nm with an excitation at 272 nm, due to the 4f-4f electronic transition and "antenna effect". Chromophore site of the functional ligand, and Dy(III) ion could potentially serve as a sensing probe for TA via quenching (fluorescence). The fluorometric sensor worked well in a wide linear range concentrations from 0.02 to 25 μM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.0053 μM. Secondly, the cyclic voltammetric of TA at Dy(III)-MOF modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) has been investigated. The Dy(III)-MOF/SPCE showed an anodic peak signal at +0.22 V with a five-fold stronger current than the control electrode surface. Under optimized sensing parameters, the Dy(III)-MOF/SPCE delivered wide linear concentrations from 0.01 to 200 μM with a LOD of 0.0023 μM (S/N = 3). Accessibility of real practical samples in alcoholic and juice-based beverages were quantified, resulting in superior recovery rates (98.13-99.53%), F-test, and t-test confirmed high reliability (<95% confidence level (n = 3)). Finally, practicability result of the electrochemical method was validated by fluorometric with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.18-0.46 ± 0.17% (n = 3). The designed probe has proven to be a key candidate for the accurate analysis of TA in beverage samples to ensure food quality.

Abstract
Active components with suitable supports are the common paradigm for industrial catalysis, and the catalytic activity usually increases with minimizing the active component size, generating a new frontier in catalysis, single-atom catalysts (SACs). However, further improvement of SACs activity is limited by the relatively low loading of single atoms (SAs, which are heteroatoms for most SACs, i.e., external active sites) because of the highly favorable aggregation of single heteroatoms during preparation. Research interest should be shifted to investigate SACs with intrinsic SAs, which could circumvent the aggregation of external SAs and consequently increase the SAs loading while maintaining them individual to further improve the activity. In this review, SACs with external or intrinsic SAs are discussed and, at last, the perspectives and challenges for obtaining high-loading SACs with intrinsic SAs are outlined.

Abstract
The real active moiety of Fe-N-C single-atom catalysts (SACs) during the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) depends on the applied potential. Here, we examine the ORR activity of various SAC active moieties (Fe-N4, Fe-(OH)N4, Fe-(O2)N4, and Fe-(OH2)N4) over a wide potential window ranging from -0.8 to 1.0 V (vs. SHE) using constant potential density functional theory calculations. We show that the ORR activity of the Fe-N4 moiety is hindered by the slow *OH protonation, while the Fe-(OH2)N4 (0.4 V ≤ U ≤ 1.0 V), *O2-assisted Fe-N4 (-0.6 V ≤ U ≤ 0.2 V), and Fe-(OH)N4 (U = -0.8 V) moieties dominate the ORR activity of the Fe-N-C catalysts at different potential windows. These oxygenated species modified the single-atom Fe sites and can promote *OH protonation by regulating the electron occupancy of the Fe 3dz2 (spin-up) and Fe 3dxz (spin-down) orbitals. Overall, our findings provide guidance for understanding the active moieties of SACs.

Abstract
Atomically dispersed metal-nitrogen-carbon catalysts (M-N-C) have been widely used in the field of energy conversion, which has already attracted a huge amount of attention. Due to their unsaturated d-band electronic structure of the center atoms, M-N-C catalysts can be applied in different electrocatalytic reactions by adjusting their own microscopic electronic structures to achieve the optimization of the structure-activity relationship. Consequently, it is of great significance for the revelation of electrocatalytic mechanism and structure-activity relationship of M-N-C catalysts. Thus, this review first introduces the relative research methods, including in situ/operando characterization techniques and theoretical calculation methods. Furthermore, clarifying the electrocatalytic mechanism and structure-activity relationship of M-N-C catalysts in different electrochemical energy conversion reactions is focused. Moreover, the future research directions are pointed out based on the discussion. This review will provide good guidance to systematically study the catalytic mechanism of single-atom catalysts and reasonably design the single-atom catalysts.

Abstract
Developing low-cost and high-efficiency oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts is crucial to the commercial application of microbial fuel cell (MFC). Herein, Fe/Co-decorated nitrogen-rich three-dimensional (3D) layer-stacked porous biochar (Fe/Co-NC-x) have been synthesized from silk gel through secondary carbonization of activated carbons which firstly adsorbed metal ions. The multilayer porous structure of Fe/Co-NC-3 contributes to construction of high specific surface area (576 m2 g-1), large pore volume (1.27 cm3 g-1) and many defect structure (ID/IG = 1.004). As expected, with Fe/Co synergistic effect, Fe/Co-NC-3 exhibits excellent ORR performance through 4e- pathway with good methanol resistance. In addition, the performance of MFC using Fe/Co-NC-3 as air-cathode catalyst is more prominent with higher maximum power density (1059.62 ± 30.00 mW m-2) compared to that using NC (668.19 ± 9.84 mW m-2) and commercial Pt/C catalyst (957.33 ± 10.50 mW m-2). Therefore, Fe/Co-NC-3 should be a prospective catalyst in the practical application of fuel cells and other energy devices.

Abstract
Due to the high cost of presently utilized Pt/C catalysts, a quick and sustainable synthesis of electrocatalysts made of cost-effective and earth-abundant metals is urgently needed. In this work, we demonstrated a mechanochemically synthesized cobalt nanoparticles supported on N and S doped carbons derived from a solid-state-reaction between zinc acetate and 2-amino thiazole as metal, organic ligand in presence of cobalt (Co) metal ions ZnxCox(C3H4N2S). Pyrolysis of the ZnxCox(C3H4N2S) produced, Co/NSC catalyst in which Co nanoparticles are evenly distributed on the nitrogen and sulfur doped carbon support. The Co/NSC catalyst have been characterized with various physical and electrochemical characterization techniques. The Co content in the ZnxCox(C3H4N2S) is carefully adjusted by varying the Co content and the optimized Co/NSC-3 catalyst is subjected to the oxygen reduction reaction in 0.1 M HClO4 electrolyte. The optimized Co/NSC-3 catalyst reveals acceptable ORR activity with the half-wave potential of ~0.63 V vs. RHE in acidic electrolytes. In addition, the Co/NSC-3 catalyst showed excellent stability with no loss in the ORR activity after 10,000 potential cycles. When applied as cathode catalysts in dual chamber microbial fuel cells, the Co/NCS catalyst delivered satisfactory volumetric power density in comparison with Pt/C.

Abstract
The large-scale commercialization of proton-exchange-membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is extremely limited by their costly platinum-group metals (PGMs) catalysts, which are used for catalyzing the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics at the cathode. Among the reported PGM-free catalysts so far, metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-Nx /C) catalysts hold a great potential to replace PGMs catalysts for the ORR due to their excellent initial activity and low cost. However, despite tremendous progress in this field in the past decade, their further applications are restricted by fast degradation under practical conditions. Herein, the theoretical fundamentals of the stability of the M-Nx /C catalysts are first introduced in terms of thermodynamics and kinetics. The primary degradation mechanisms of M-Nx /C catalysts and the corresponding mitigating strategies are discussed in detail. Finally, the current challenges and the prospects for designing highly stable M-Nx /C catalysts are outlined.

Abstract
The development of non-Pt or carbon-based catalysts for anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) requires identification of the active sites of the catalyst. Since not only metals but also carbon materials exhibit oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity in alkaline conditions, the contribution of carbon-based materials to ORR performance should also be thoroughly analyzed. However, the conventional CN- poisoning experiments, which are mainly used to explain the main active site of M-N-C catalysts, are limited to only qualitative discussions, having the potential to make fundamental errors. Here, we report a modified electrochemical analysis to quantitatively investigate the contribution of the metal and carbon active sites to ORR currents at a fixed potential by sequentially performing chronoamperometry with two reaction inhibitors, CN- and benzyl trimethylammonium (BTMA+). As a result, we discover how to quantify the individual contributions of two active sites (Pt nanoparticles and carbon support) of carbon-supported Pt (Pt/C) nanoparticles as a model catalyst. This study is expected to provide important clues for the active site analysis of carbon-supported non-Pt catalysts, such as M-N-C catalysts composed of heterogeneous elements.

Abstract
The systematic improvement of Fe-N-C materials for fuel cell applications has proven challenging, due in part to an incomplete atomistic understanding of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) under electrochemical conditions. Herein, a multilevel computational approach, which combines ab initio molecular dynamics simulations and constant potential density functional theory calculations, is used to assess proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) processes and adsorption thermodynamics of key ORR intermediates. These calculations indicate that the potential-limiting step for ORR on Fe-N-C materials is the formation of the FeIII-OOH intermediate. They also show that an active site model with a water molecule axially ligated to the iron center throughout the catalytic cycle produces results that are consistent with the experimental measurements. In particular, reliable prediction of the ORR onset potential and the Fe(III/II) redox potential associated with the conversion of FeIII-OH to FeII and desorbed H2O requires an axial H2O co-adsorbed to the iron center. The observation of a five-coordinate rather than four-coordinate active site has significant implications for the thermodynamics and mechanism of ORR. These findings highlight the importance of solvent-substrate interactions and surface charge effects for understanding the PCET reaction mechanisms and transition-metal redox couples under realistic electrochemical conditions.

Abstract
The experimental development of catalytically ever-more active platinum group metal (PGM)-free materials for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at fuel cell cathodes has been until recently a rather empirical iteration of synthesis and testing. Here, we present how kinetic reactivity maps based on kinetic descriptors of PGM-free single-metal-site ORR electrocatalysts can help to better understand the origin of catalytic reactivity and help to derive rational synthetic guidelines toward improved catalysts. Key in our analysis are the catalytic surface site density (SD) and the catalytic turnover frequency (TOF) in their role as controlling kinetic parameters for the ORR reactivity of PGM-free nitrogen-coordinated single-metal M-site carbon (MNC) catalysts. SD-TOF plots establish two-dimensional reactivity maps. We also consider the ratio between SD and the total number of single-metal sites in the bulk, referred to as the site utilization factor, which we propose as another guiding parameter for optimizing the synthesis of MNC catalysts. Exemplified by two sets of FeNC, CoNC, and SnNC catalysts prepared using two distinctly different N- and C-precursor material classes (Zn-based zeolitic imidazolate frameworks and covalent polyaniline), we comparatively diagnose the intrinsic kinetic ORR parameters as well as structural, morphological, and chemical properties. From there, we derive and discuss possible synthetic guidelines for further improvements. Our approach can be extended to other families of catalysts and may involve kinetic performance data of idealized liquid-electrolyte cells as well as gas diffusion layer-type flow cells.

Abstract
Fe-N-C single-atom catalysts (SACs) are emerging as a promising class of electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) to replace Pt-based catalysts. However, due to the limited loading of Fe for SACs and the inaccessibility of internal active sites, only a small portion of the sites near the external surface are able to contribute to the ORR activity. Here, this work reports a metal-organic framework-derived Fe-N-C SAC with a hierarchically porous and concave nanoarchitecture prepared through a facile but effective strategy, which exhibits superior electrocatalytic ORR activity with a half-wave potential of 0.926 V (vs RHE) in alkaline media and 0.8 V (vs RHE) in acidic media while maintaining excellent stability. The superior ORR activity of the as-designed catalyst stems from the unique architecture, where the hierarchically porous architecture contains micropores as Fe SAC anchoring sites, meso-/macro-pores as accessible channels, and concave shell for increasing external surface area. The unique architecture has dramatically enhanced the utilization of previously blocked internal active sites, as confirmed by a high turnover frequency of 3.37 s-1 and operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy analysis with a distinct shift of adsorption edge.

Abstract
The development of non-precious metal electrocatalysts towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is crucial for the commercialisation of polymer electrolyte fuel cells. In this work, cobalt-containing nitrogen-doped porous carbon materials were prepared by a pyrolysis of mixtures of saccharides, cobalt nitrate and dicyandiamide, which acts as a precursor for reactive carbon nitride template and a nitrogen source. The rotating disk electrode (RDE) experiments in 0.1 M KOH solution showed that the glucose-derived material with optimised cobalt content had excellent ORR activity, which was comparable to that of 20 wt % Pt/C catalyst. In addition, the catalyst exhibited high tolerance to methanol, good stability in short-time potential cycling test and low peroxide yield. The materials derived from xylan, xylose and cyclodextrin displayed similar activities, indicating that various saccharides can be used as inexpensive and sustainable precursors to synthesise active catalyst materials for anion exchange membrane fuel cells.

Abstract
Fe(III) 5,10,15,20-(tetraphenyl)porphyrin chloride (FeTPP) and Co(III) 5,10,15,20-(tetraphenyl)porphyrin chloride (CoTPP) were adsorbed on carbon Vulcan and studied as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) before and after pyrolysis. The pyrolysis process was also simulated through ab initio molecular dynamic simulations and the minimum energy path for the O2 dissociation after the interaction with the metal center of the FeTPP and CoTPP were calculated. After the pyrolysis the FeTPP showed the best performances reducing O2 completely to H2O with increased limiting current and lower overpotential. Tafel slops for the various catalysts did not change after the pyrolytic process suggesting that the mechanism for the ORR is not affected by the heat treatment. TEM images, X-ray diffraction, XPS spectroscopy, 57Fe Mössbauer, and DFT simulations, suggest that there is no breakdown of the macrocyclic complex at elevated temperatures, and that the macro cyclic geometry is preserved. Small variations in the Metal-O2 (M-O2) binding energies and the M–N bond length were observed which is attributed to the dispersive interaction between the macrocycles and the irregular surface of the Vulcan substrate induced by the heat treatment and causing better interaction with the O2 molecule. The theoretical strategy herein applied well simulate and explain the nature of the M–N–C active sites and the performances towards the ORR.

Abstract
Recent progress in synthetic strategies, analysis techniques, and computational modeling assist researchers to develop more active catalysts including metallic clusters to single-atom active sites (SACs). Metal coordinated N-doped carbons (M-N-C) are the most auspicious, with a large number of atomic sites, markedly performing for a series of electrochemical reactions. This perspective sums up the latest innovative and computational comprehension, while giving credit to earlier/pioneering work in carbonaceous assembly materials towards robust electrocatalytic activity for proton exchange membrane fuel cells via inclusive performance assessment of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). M-Nx -Cy are exclusively defined active sites for ORR, so there is a unique possibility to intellectually design the relatively new catalysts with much improved activity, selectivity, and durability. Moreover, some SACs structures provide better performance in fuel cells testing with long-term durability. The efforts to understand the connection in SACs based M-Nx -Cy moieties and how these relate to catalytic ORR performance are also conveyed. Owing to comprehensive practical application in the field, this study has covered very encouraging aspects to the current durability status of M-N-C based catalysts for fuel cells followed by degradation mechanisms such as macro-, microdegradation, catalytic poisoning, and future challenges.

Abstract
Polyazomethine (PAM) prepared from the polycondensation between p-phenylene diamine (PDA) and p-terephthalaldehyde (PTAl) via Schiff reaction can physically crosslink (complex) with Co ions. Co-complexed PAM (Co-PAM) in the form of gel is calcined to become a Co, N-co-doped carbonaceous matrix (Co-N-C), acting as cathode catalyst of an anion exchange membrane fuel cell (AEMFC). The obtained Co-N-C catalyst demonstrates a single-atom structure with active Co centers seen under the high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The Co-N-C catalysts are also characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, XPS, BET, and Raman spectroscopy. The Co-N-C catalysts demonstrate oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity in the KOH(aq) by expressing an onset potential of 1.19–1.37 V vs. RHE, a half wave potential of 0.70–0.92 V, a Tafel slope of 61–89 mV/dec., and number of exchange electrons of 2.48–3.79. Significant ORR peaks appear in the current–voltage (CV) polarization curves for the Co-N-C catalysts that experience two-stage calcination higher than 900 °C, followed by double acid leaching (CoNC-1000A-900A). The reduction current of CoNC-1000A-900A is comparable to that of commercial Pt-implanted carbon (Pt/C), and the max power density of the single cell using CoNC-1000A-900A as cathode catalyst reaches 275 mW cm−2.

Abstract
Fe-N-C electrocatalysts have been demonstrated to be the most promising substitutes for benchmark Pt/C catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Herein, we report that N-doped carbon materials with trace amounts of iron (0-0.08 wt. %) show excellent ORR activity and durability comparable and even superior to those of Pt/C in both alkaline and acidic media without significant contribution by the metal sites. Such an N-doped carbon (denoted as N-HPCs) features a hollow and hierarchically porous architecture, and more importantly, a noncovalently bonded N-deficient/N-rich heterostructure providing the active sites for oxygen adsorption and activation owing to the efficient electron transfer between the layers. The primary Zn-air battery using N-HPCs as the cathode delivers a much higher power density of 158 mW cm-2 , and the maximum power density in the H2 -O2 fuel cell reaches 486 mW cm-2 , which is comparable to and even better than those using conventional Fe-N-C catalysts at cathodes.

Abstract
Single atom catalysis is a prosperous and rapidly growing research field, owing to the remarkable advantages of single atom catalysts (SACs), such as maximized atom utilization efficiency, tailorable catalytic activities as well as supremely high catalytic selectivity. Synthesis approaches play crucial roles in determining the properties and performance of SACs. Over the past few years, versatile methods have been adopted to synthesize SACs. Herein, we give a thorough and up-to-date review on the progress of approaches for the synthesis of SACs, outline the general principles and list the advantages and disadvantages of each synthesis approach, with the aim to give the readers a clear picture and inspire more studies to exploit novel approaches to synthesize SACs effectively.

Abstract
Hydrogen energy-based electrochemical energy conversion technologies offer the promise of enabling a transition of the global energy landscape from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the fundamentals of electrocatalysis in alkaline media and applications in alkaline-based energy technologies, particularly alkaline fuel cells and water electrolyzers. Anion exchange (alkaline) membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) enable the use of nonprecious electrocatalysts for the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), relative to proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), which require Pt-based electrocatalysts. However, the hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) kinetics is significantly slower in alkaline media than in acidic media. Understanding these phenomena requires applying theoretical and experimental methods to unravel molecular-level thermodynamics and kinetics of hydrogen and oxygen electrocatalysis and, particularly, the proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) process that takes place in a proton-deficient alkaline media. Extensive electrochemical and spectroscopic studies, on single-crystal Pt and metal oxides, have contributed to the development of activity descriptors, as well as the identification of the nature of active sites, and the rate-determining steps of the HOR and ORR. Among these, the structure and reactivity of interfacial water serve as key potential and pH-dependent kinetic factors that are helping elucidate the origins of the HOR and ORR activity differences in acids and bases. Additionally, deliberately modulating and controlling catalyst-support interactions have provided valuable insights for enhancing catalyst accessibility and durability during operation. The design and synthesis of highly conductive and durable alkaline membranes/ionomers have enabled AEMFCs to reach initial performance metrics equal to or higher than those of PEMFCs. We emphasize the importance of using membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) to integrate the often separately pursued/optimized electrocatalyst/support and membranes/ionomer components. Operando/in situ methods, at multiscales, and ab initio simulations provide a mechanistic understanding of electron, ion, and mass transport at catalyst/ionomer/membrane interfaces and the necessary guidance to achieve fuel cell operation in air over thousands of hours. We hope that this Review will serve as a roadmap for advancing the scientific understanding of the fundamental factors governing electrochemical energy conversion in alkaline media with the ultimate goal of achieving ultralow Pt or precious-metal-free high-performance and durable alkaline fuel cells and related technologies.

Abstract
The further commercialization of renewable energy conversion and storage technologies requires heterogeneous electrocatalysts that meet the exacting durability target. Studies of the stability and degradation mechanisms of electrocatalysts are expected to provide important breakthroughs in stability issues. Accessible in situ/operando techniques performed under realistic reaction conditions are therefore urgently needed to reveal the nature of active center structures and establish links between the structural motifs in a catalyst and its stability properties. This review highlights recent research advances regarding in situ/operando techniques and improves the understanding of the stabilities of advanced heterogeneous electrocatalysts used in a diverse range of electrochemical reactions; it also proposes some degradation mechanisms. The review concludes by offering suggestions for future research.
