Comparative study on CeO 2 catalysts with different morphologies and exposed facets for catalytic ozonation: performance, key factor and mechanism insight. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 673:847-859. [PMID: 38908284 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.06.119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2024] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 06/24/2024]
Abstract
Morphology and facet effects of metal oxides in heterogeneous catalytic ozonation (HCO) are attracting increasing interests. In this paper, the different HCO performances for degradation and mineralization of phenol of seven ceria (CeO2) catalysts, including four with different morphologies (nanorod, nanocube, nanooctahedron and nanopolyhedron) and three with the same nanorod morphology but different exposed facets, are comparatively studied. CeO2 nanorods with (110) and (100) facets exposed show the best performance, much better than that of single ozonation, while CeO2 nanocubes and nanooctahedra show performances close to single ozonation. The underlying reason for their different HCO performances is revealed using various experimental and density functional theory (DFT) calculation results and the possible catalytic reaction mechanism is proposed. The oxygen vacancy (OV) is found to be pivotal for the HCO performance of the different CeO2 catalysts regardless of their morphology or exposed facet. A linear correlation is discerned between the rate of catalytic decomposition of dissolved ozone (O3) and the density of Frenkel-type OV. DFT calculations and in-situ spectroscopic studies ascertain that the existence of OV can boost O3 activation on both the hydroxyl (OH) and Ce sites of CeO2. Conversely, various facets without OV exhibit similar O3 adsorption energies. The OH group plays an important role in activating O3 to produce hydroxyl radical (∙OH) for improved mineralization. This work may offer valuable insights for designing Facet- and OV-regulated catalysts in HCO for the abatement of refractory organic pollutants.

Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emission has been a global concern over the past few decades due to the increase in the demand of energy, a major source of which is fossil fuels. To mitigate the emission issues, as well as to find a solution for the energy needs, an ample load of research has been carried out over the past few years in CO2 reduction by catalysis. Bismuth, being an active catalyst both photocatalytically and electrocatalytically, is an interesting material that can be formed into oxides, sulphides, oxyhalides, etc. Numerous works have been published based on bismuth-based materials as active catalysts for the reduction of CO2. However, a proper understanding of the behavior of the active facets and the dependence of morphology of the different bismuth-based catalysts is an interesting notion. In this review, various bismuth-based materials will be discussed regarding their activity and charge transfer properties, based on the active facets present in them. With regard to the available literature, a summarization, including photocatalysis, electrocatalysis as well as photoelectrocatalysis, will be detailed, considering various materials with different facets and morphologies. Product selectivity, varying on morphological difference, will also be realized photoelectrochemically.

Abstract
In recent years, nanoscience and nanotechnology have emerged as promising fields in materials science. Spectroscopic techniques like scanning tunneling microscopy and atomic force microscopy have revolutionized the characterization, manipulation, and size control of nanomaterials, enabling the creation of diverse materials such as fullerenes, graphene, nanotubes, nanofibers, nanorods, nanowires, nanoparticles, nanocones, and nanosheets. Among these nanomaterials, there has been considerable interest in flower-shaped hierarchical 3D nanostructures, known as nanoflowers. These structures offer advantages like a higher surface-to-volume ratio compared to spherical nanoparticles, cost-effectiveness, and environmentally friendly preparation methods. Researchers have explored various applications of 3D nanostructures with unique morphologies derived from different nanoflowers. The nanoflowers are classified as organic, inorganic and hybrid, and the hybrids are a combination thereof, and most research studies of the nanoflowers have been focused on biomedical applications. Intriguingly, among them, inorganic nanoflowers have been studied extensively in various areas, such as electro, photo, and chemical catalysis, sensors, supercapacitors, and batteries, owing to their high catalytic efficiency and optical characteristics, which arise from their composition, crystal structure, and local surface plasmon resonance (LSPR). Despite the significant interest in inorganic nanoflowers, comprehensive reviews on this topic have been scarce until now. This is the first review focusing on inorganic nanoflowers for applications in electro, photo, and chemical catalysts, sensors, supercapacitors, and batteries. Since the early 2000s, more than 350 papers have been published on this topic with many ongoing research projects. This review categorizes the reported inorganic nanoflowers into four groups based on their composition and structure: metal, metal oxide, alloy, and other nanoflowers, including silica, metal-metal oxide, core-shell, doped, coated, nitride, sulfide, phosphide, selenide, and telluride nanoflowers. The review thoroughly discusses the preparation methods, conditions for morphology and size control, mechanisms, characteristics, and potential applications of these nanoflowers, aiming to facilitate future research and promote highly effective and synergistic applications in various fields.

Abstract
The self-assembly of colloidal particles, especially colloidal particles with anisotropic geometry, is important for applications in the construction of many functional materials. Compared with the self-assembly of colloidal particles with isotropic geometries, not only does the geometric orientation among neighboring anisotropic particles need to be considered for the reduction of Gibbs free energy, the orientations of the particles are best to be externally influenced. Because of this, the preparation of assembled nanorod arrays with uniform alignment across a large area is still a significant challenge. In this work, an electric-field-assisted capillary channel method is reported, using an external electric field to influence the orientation of silica nanorods or FeOOH ellipsoids during assembly. By application of an external electric field, the alignment of the nanorods is effectively controlled. The capillary channel method provides continuous replenishment of a colloidal solution containing nanorods or spheres for assembly of large-area films. The area of the formed films was influenced by the assembly temperature, channel width, colloidal solution concentration, and solvent surface tension. The competition between the thermal Brownian motion and torque generated by the external electric field impacted the nanorod array quality in the film. While increasing the intensity of the electric field improved nanorod alignment, applying a potential greater than 6 V also produced a heating effect, negatively affecting the quality of the nanorod arrays. The nematic order parameter S which characterizes the degree of alignment of FeOOH ellipsoids with smaller length is significantly lower than the one for silica nanorods due to the higher critical field strength and the increased susceptibility to the effects of thermal motion. The assembly of silica nanorods at 35 °C under an effective potential of 4-6 V provides a compromise between achieving uniform nanorod orientation and maximizing the coverage area of the colloidal film.

Abstract
Anisotropic nanomaterials are materials with structures and properties that vary depending on the direction in which they are measured. Unlike isotropic materials, which exhibit uniform physical properties in all directions, anisotropic materials have different mechanical, electrical, thermal, and optical properties in different directions. Examples of anisotropic nanomaterials include nanocubes, nanowires, nanorods, nanoprisms, nanostars, and so on. These materials have unique properties that make them useful in a variety of applications, such as electronics, energy storage, catalysis, and biomedical engineering. One of the key advantages of anisotropic nanomaterials is their high aspect ratio, which refers to the ratio of their length to their width, which can enhance their mechanical and electrical properties, making them suitable for use in nanocomposites and other nanoscale applications. However, the anisotropic nature of these materials also presents challenges in their synthesis and processing. For example, it can be difficult to align the nanostructures in a specific direction to impart modulation of a specific property. Despite these challenges, research into anisotropic nanomaterials continues to grow, and scientists are working to develop new synthesis methods and processing techniques to unlock their full potential. Utilization of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a renewable and sustainable source of carbon has been a topic of increasing interest due to its impact on reducing the level of greenhouse gas emissions. Anisotropic nanomaterials have been used to improve the efficiency of CO2 conversion into useful chemicals and fuels using a variety of processes such as photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, and thermocatalysis. More study is required to improve the usage of anisotropic nanomaterials for CO2 consumption and to scale up these technologies for industrial use. The unique properties of anisotropic nanomaterials, such as their high surface area, tunable morphology, and high activity, make them promising catalysts for CO2 utilization. This review article discusses briefly about various approaches towards the synthesis of anisotropic nanomaterials and their applications in CO2 utilization. The article also highlights the challenges and opportunities in this field and the future direction of research.

Abstract
Four different nanoshapes of cerium dioxide have been prepared (polycrystals, rods, cubes, and octahedra) and have been decorated with different metals (Ru, Pd, Au, Pt, Cu, and Ni) by incipient wetness impregnation (IWI) and ball milling (BM) methods. After an initial analysis based on oxygen consumption from CO2 pulse chemisorption, Ni-like metal, and two forms of CeO2 cubes and rods were selected for further research. Catalysts were characterized using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller formula (BET), X-ray spectroscopy (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-visible spectrophotometry (UV-Vis), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and CO2 pulse chemisorption, and used to reduce of CO2 into CO (CO2 splitting). Adding metals to cerium dioxide enhanced the ability of CeO2 to release oxygen and concomitant reactivity toward the reduction of CO2. The effect of the metal precursor and concentration were evaluated. The highest CO2 splitting value was achieved for 2% Ni/CeO2-rods prepared by ball milling using Ni nitrate (412 µmol/gcat) and the H2 consumption (453.2 µmol/gcat) confirms the good redox ability of this catalyst.

Abstract
Novel TiO2 nanorods (NRs) with various lengths of 70-200 nm and uniform widths of 46-48 nm are selectively synthesized by a solvothermal reaction under a basic environment. The length of TiO2 NRs is reproducibly tuned by varying the concentration of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH), while the NRs in the pure anatase phase are grown in the [001] direction, caused by the preferential binding affinity of TMAH to the TiO2 (101) facet. TiO2 NRs of various lengths are then applied to form the electron transporting layer (ETL) of mesoscopic perovskite solar cells (PSCs). We found that PSC devices with NRs exhibit superior photovoltaic (PV) performance to those with conventional 46 nm-sized TiO2 nanoparticles (NP46). Particularly, the PSC with TiO2 NRs of 110 nm length (NR110) exhibits the optimum PV conversion efficiency (PCE): the average PCE is 22.64% with a VOC of 1.137 V, a JSC of 24.60 mA·cm-2, and a FF of 80.96%, while the champion PCE is 23.18%. In addition, the PSC with NR110 (PSC-NR110) reveals significantly improved long-term stability in air with a relative humidity of 40-50%. In 1000 h, its PCE is reduced by only 9% whereas that of PSC with NP46 decreases by 25%. The PSC properties analyzed by impedance spectroscopy and J-V curve measurements under dark conditions and at various light intensities provide evidence that PSC-NR110 has fewer defects and shows significantly reduced charge recombination. We discuss the advantages of NR structures in preparing the ETL of PSC devices and also explain why the charge recombination is suppressed.

Abstract
Photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy (PDT) accumulates in both tumor and adjacent normal tissue due to low selective biodistribution, results in undesirable side effect with limited clinic application. Herein, an intelligent nanoplatform is reported that selectively acts as reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger in normal tissue but as ROS generator in tumor microenvironment (TME) to differentially control ROS level in tumor and surrounding normal tissue during PDT. By down-regulating the produced ROS with dampened cytokine wave in normal tissue after PDT, the nanoplatform reduces the inflammatory response of normal tissue in PDT, minimizing the side effect and tumor metastasis in PDT. Alternatively, the nanoplatform switches from ROS scavenger to generator through the glutathione (GSH) responsive degradation in TME, which effectively improves the PDT efficacy with reduced GSH level and amplified oxidative stress in tumor. Simultaneously, the released Mn ions provide real-time and in situ signal change of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to monitor the reversal process of catalysis activity and achieve accurate tumor diagnosis. This TME-responsive ROS scavenger/generator with activable MRI contrast may provide a new dimension for design of next-generation PDT agents with precise diagnosis, high therapeutic efficacy, and low side effect.

Abstract
Cerium dioxide (CeO2, ceria) has long been regarded as one of the key materials in modern catalysis, both as a support and as a catalyst itself. Apart from its well-established use (three-way catalysts and diesel engines), CeO2 has been widely used as a cocatalyst/catalyst in energy conversion and storage applications. The importance stems from the oxygen storage capacity of ceria, which allows it to release oxygen under reducing conditions and to store oxygen by filling oxygen vacancies under oxidizing conditions. However, the nature of the Ce active site remains not well understood because the degree of participation of f electrons in catalytic reactions is not clear in the case of the heavy dependence of catalysis theory on localized d orbitals at the Fermi energy E F . This review focuses on the catalytic applications in energy conversion and storage of CeO2-based nanostructures and discusses the mechanisms for several typical catalytic reactions from the perspectives of electronic properties of CeO2-based nanostructures. Defect engineering is also summarized to better understand the relationship between catalytic performance and electronic properties. Finally, the challenges and prospects of designing high efficiency CeO2-based catalysts in energy storage and conversion have been emphasized.

Abstract
To investigate the photochemical property of specific crystal facets, two well-defined CeVO4 dodecahedrons with exposed {101} and {100} facets are prepared, which have distinguishing appearances and unequal {101}/{100} area ratios (A{101}/A{100}), i.e., compressed dodecahedra (CeVO4 CD, A{101}/A{100} ≈ 1) and elongated dodecahedra (CeVO4 ED, A{101}/A{100} ≈ 0.3). During the visible-light-irradiated process, the {101} and {100} facets are certified to selectively deposit photogenerated holes (h+) and electrons (e-), thus exhibiting the photooxidability and photoreducibility, respectively. Meanwhile, a surface heterojunction could form at the adjacent facet interface and facilitate the spatial separation of carriers. Benefiting from the large exposure extent of the {101} facet and the rational A{101}/A{100} (∼1), the CeVO4 CD shows a superior photocatalytic performance for the degradation of tetracycline to the CeVO4 ED. Finally, simulation calculations reveal that the energy deviations of the valence band (VB) and conduction band (CB) between CeVO4{101} and CeVO4{100} impel the photogenerated h+ and e- to transfer in opposite directions, resulting in the facet-dependent photoactivity of the CeVO4 dodecahedron.

Abstract
In this work, unique Co3 O4 /N-doped reduced graphene oxide (Co3 O4 /N-rGO) composites as favorable sulfur immobilizers and promoters for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries are developed. The prepared Co3 O4 nanopolyhedrons (Co3 O4 -NP) and Co3 O4 nanocubes mainly expose (112) and (001) surfaces, respectively, with different atomic configurations of Co2+ /Co3+ sites. Experiments and theoretical calculations confirm that the octahedral coordination Co3+ (Co3+ Oh ) sites with different oxidation states from tetrahedral coordination Co2+ sites optimize the adsorption and catalytic conversion of lithium polysulfides. Specially, the Co3 O4 -NP crystals loaded on N-rGO expose (112) planes with ample Co3+ Oh active sites, exhibiting stronger adsorbability and superior catalytic activity for polysulfides, thus inhibiting the shuttle effect. Therefore, the S@Co3 O4 -NP/N-rGO cathodes deliver excellent electrochemical properties, for example, stable cyclability at 1 C with a low capacity decay rate of 0.058% over 500 cycles, superb rate capability up to 3 C, and high areal capacity of 4.1 mAh cm-2 . This catalyst's design incorporating crystal surface engineering and oxidation state regulation strategies also provides new approaches for addressing the complicated issues of Li-S batteries.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:79126-79139.

Abstract
Understanding how the morphology of a layered double hydroxide (LDH)-based catalyst alters its catalytic activity provides an available strategy for the rational design and fabrication of high-efficiency catalysts at a micro-scale. Herein, three nickel-iron layered double hydroxide (NiFe-LDH) catalysts including 2D-plate-like hexagon (P-NiFe-LDH), 2D/3D-flower-like solid sphere (FS-NiFe-LDH), and 2D/3D-flower-like hollow sphere (FH-NiFe-LDH) with regulable oxygen vacancies (OVs) were fabricated via a morphological regulation method of Ostwald ripening. The experimental results demonstrated that the three types of NiFe-LDH exhibited different abilities to activate persulfate (PS) for the abatement of acid orange 7 (AO7) with a sequence of FH-NiFe-LDH > FS-NiFe-LDH > P-NiFe-LDH. Particularly, the FH-NiFe-LDH with a hollow structure exhibited the most considerable activity with the first-order rate constant up to k = 0.02639 min-1, benefiting from the highly accessible surface areas, higher intrinsic activity of the exposed crystal planes, and abundant OVs. Characterizations further confirmed that these properties could profoundly allow for more exposure of active sites and enhance the reactivity of OV-connected Ni or Fe to facilitate electron transfer and generate more reactive radicals, therefore elucidating the morphologic origin of catalytic performance. Based on the quenching experiments, sulfate radicals (SO4·-), hydroxyl radicals (·OH), and oxygen radicals (O2·-) were identified to be involved in the decomposition process. Furthermore, the continuous redox cycle of Ni(II)/Ni(III)/Ni(II) and Fe(II)/Fe(III)/Fe(II) was responsible for the generation of active radicals via activating PS.

Abstract
Among energy storage devices, supercapacitors have received considerable attention in recent years owing to their high-power density and extended cycle life. Researchers are currently making efforts to improve energy density using different asymmetric cell configurations, which may provide a wider potential window. Many studies have been conducted on positive electrodes for asymmetric supercapacitor devices; however, studies on negative electrodes have been limited. In this study, iron oxides with different morphologies were synthesized at various deposition temperatures using a simple chemical bath deposition method. A nanosphere-like morphology was obtained for α-Fe2O3. The obtained specific capacitance (Cs) of α-Fe2O3 was 2021 F/g at a current density of 4 A/g. The negative electrode showed an excellent capacitance retention of 96% over 5000 CV cycles. The fabricated asymmetric solid-state supercapacitor device based on α-Fe2O3-NF//Co3O4-NF exhibited a Cs of 155 F/g and an energy density of 21 Wh/kg at 4 A/g.

Solid-State Construction of CuO x/Cu 1.5Mn 1.5O 4 Nanocomposite with Abundant Surface CuO x Species and Oxygen Vacancies to Promote CO Oxidation Activity. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23126856.

Abstract
Carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation performance heavily depends on the surface-active species and the oxygen vacancies of nanocomposites. Herein, the CuOx/Cu1.5Mn1.5O4 were fabricated via solid-state strategy. It is manifested that the construction of CuOx/Cu1.5Mn1.5O4 nanocomposite can produce abundant surface CuOx species and a number of oxygen vacancies, resulting in substantially enhanced CO oxidation activity. The CO is completely converted to carbon dioxide (CO2) at 75 °C when CuOx/Cu1.5Mn1.5O4 nanocomposites were involved, which is higher than individual CuOx, MnOx, and Cu1.5Mn1.5O4. Density function theory (DFT) calculations suggest that CO and O2 are adsorbed on CuOx/Cu1.5Mn1.5O4 surface with relatively optimal adsorption energy, which is more beneficial for CO oxidation activity. This work presents an effective way to prepare heterogeneous metal oxides with promising application in catalysis.

Abstract
A mesoporous LaCoO3 perovskite oxide (LaCoO3-Meso) with three-dimensionally ordered helical interwoven structure was synthesized by a nano-casting method using KIT-6 as the hard template. The obtained LaCoO3-Meso with high surface area was tested for its catalytic performance in the NOx storage and reduction (NSR) reaction and compared with a sample synthesized by the conventional sol-gel method. The LaCoO3-Meso showed a significant advantage for NOx storage, with a NOx storage capacity 2 times higher than the regular sample. LaCoO3-Meso also exhibited improved NSR catalytic performance in the 150-450 °C temperature range, especially within 350-400 °C, where the NOx conversion was raised for 40%. The results of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption fine structure measurements suggested the presence of a high concentration of oxygen defects on the LaCoO3-Meso surface. Further results provided by temperature programmed reduction and temperature programmed desorption indicated that the oxygen defects not only increase the amount of trapped NOx, but also improve the low-temperature redox performance of the catalyst. The lower stability of NOx species adsorbed on oxygen defects promotes the NOx release step in the NSR reaction and benefits the regeneration of storage sites.

Abstract
We present the cobalt 2p3d resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of Co3O4. Guided by multiplet simulation, the excited states at 0.5 and 1.3 eV can be identified as the 4 T 2 excited state of the tetrahedral Co2+ and the 3 T 2g excited state of the octahedral Co3+, respectively. The ground states of Co2+ and Co3+ sites are determined to be high-spin 4 A 2(T d ) and low-spin 1 A 1g (Oh ), respectively. It indicates that the high-spin Co2+ is the magnetically active site in Co3O4. Additionally, the ligand-to-metal charge transfer analysis shows strong orbital hybridization between the cobalt and oxygen ions at the Co3+ site, while the hybridization is weak at the Co2+ site.

Abstract
The atomic arrangement of the terminating facets on spinel Co3O4 nanocrystals is strongly linked to their catalytic performance. However, the spinel crystal structure offers multiple possible surface terminations depending on the synthesis. Thus, understanding the terminating surface atomic structure is essential in developing high‐performance Co3O4 nanocrystals. In this work, we present direct atomic‐scale observation of the surface terminations of Co3O4 nanoparticles supported on hollow carbon spheres (HCSs) using exit wavefunction reconstruction from aberration‐corrected transmission electron microscopy focal‐series. The restored high‐resolution phases show distinct resolved oxygen and cobalt atomic columns. The data show that the structure of {100}, {110}, and {111} facets of spinel Co3O4 exhibit characteristic active sites for carbon monoxide (CO) adsorption, in agreement with density functional theory calculations. Of these facets, the {100} and {110} surface terminations are better suited for CO adsorption than the {111}. However, the presence of oxygen on the {111} surface termination indicates this facet also plays an essential role in CO adsorption. Our results demonstrate direct evidence of the surface termination atomic structure beyond the assumed stoichiometry of the surface.

Abstract
A critical review of different prominent nanotechnologies adapted to catalysis is provided, with focus on how they contribute to the improvement of selectivity in heterogeneous catalysis. Ways to modify catalytic sites range from the use of the reversible or irreversible adsorption of molecular modifiers to the immobilization or tethering of homogeneous catalysts and the development of well-defined catalytic sites on solid surfaces. The latter covers methods for the dispersion of single-atom sites within solid supports as well as the use of complex nanostructures, and it includes the post-modification of materials via processes such as silylation and atomic layer deposition. All these methodologies exhibit both advantages and limitations, but all offer new avenues for the design of catalysts for specific applications. Because of the high cost of most nanotechnologies and the fact that the resulting materials may exhibit limited thermal or chemical stability, they may be best aimed at improving the selective synthesis of high value-added chemicals, to be incorporated in organic synthesis schemes, but other applications are being explored as well to address problems in energy production, for instance, and to design greener chemical processes. The details of each of these approaches are discussed, and representative examples are provided. We conclude with some general remarks on the future of this field.

Abstract
Mainly exposed crystal facets and controllable morphology play a key role in the final performance of the preparation of specific nanomaterials. In the present study, a metal-organic framework pyrolysis method without adding solvent modifiers was developed. By adding CO in the calcination atmosphere to change atmosphere ratio, Fe3O4 nanostructures are exposed with different crystal planes and evaluated their performance in NH3-SCR reaction. This study proves that SCR catalytic activity of Fe3O4 nanocrystals is dependent on morphology and crystal facet. Compared with materials exposed (100), catalysts with more (111) show stronger deNOx performance. The preferential exposure of Fe3O4 (111) crystal facets increases the concentration of adsorbed oxygen on the catalyst, showing higher surface acidity, and enhances the interaction among NO, O2 and catalyst, which is conducive to SCR reaction. This is supported by DFT calculations. The results present a great application prospect in preparing nanomaterials with specific crystal structures to effectively treat pollutants.

Abstract
As one of the conductive ink materials with high electric conductivity, elemental copper (Cu) based nanocrystals promise for printable electronics. Here, single crystalline Cu nanoplates were synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method. Size engineering of Cu nanoplates can be rationalized by using the LaMer model and the versatile Cu conductive ink materials are suitable for different printing technologies. The printed Cu traces show high electric conductivity of 6 MS m-1, exhibiting electro-magnetic interference shielding efficiency value of 75 dB at an average thicknesses of 11μm. Together with flexible alumina ceramic aerogel substrates, it kept 87% conductivity at the environmental temperature of 400 °C, demonstrating the potential of Cu conductive ink for high-temperature printable electronics applications.

Abstract
The interfacial perimeter is generally viewed as the catalytically active site for a number of chemical reactions over oxide-supported nanogold catalysts. Here, well-defined CeO2 nanocubes, nanorods and nanopolyhedra are chosen to accommodate atomically precise clusters (e.g. Au25(PET)18) to give different Au cluster-CeO2 interfaces. TEM images show that Au particles of ∼1.3 nm are uniformly anchored on the ceria surface after annealing in air at 120 °C, which can rule out the size hierarchy of nanogold in CO oxidation studies. The gold nanoclusters are only immobilized on the CeO2(200) facet in Au25/CeO2-C, while they are selectively loaded on CeO2(002) and (111) in the Au25/CeO2-R and Au25/CeO2-P catalysts. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and in situ infrared CO adsorption experiments clearly demonstrate that the gold species in the Au25/CeO2 samples are similar and partially charged (Au δ+, where 0 < δ < 1). It is observed that the catalytic activity decreases in the order of Au/CeO2-R ≈ Au/CeO2-P > Au/CeO4-C in the CO oxidation. And the apparent activation energy over Au25/CeO2-C (60.5 kJ mol-1) is calculated to be about two-fold of that over the Au25/CeO2-R (28.6 kJ mol-1) and Au25/CeO2-P (31.3 kJ mol-1) catalysts. It is mainly tailored by the adsorbed [O] species on the ceria surface, namely, Au25/CeO2(002) and Au25/CeO2(111) which were more active than the Au25/CeO2(200) system in the CO oxidation. These insights at the molecular level may provide guidelines for the design of new oxide-supported nanogold catalysts for aerobic oxidations.

Abstract
The use of food additives (such as dyes, which improve the appearance of the products) has become more prominent, due to the rapid population growth and the increase in demand for beverages and processed foods. The dyes are usually found in effluents that are discharged into the environment without previous treatment; this promotes mass contamination and alters the aquatic environment. In recent years, advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) have proven to be effective technologies used for wastewater treatment through the destruction of the total organic content of toxic contaminants, including food dyes. Studies have shown that the introduction of catalysts in AOPs improve treatment efficiency (i.e., complete decomposition without secondary contamination). The present review offers a quick reference for researchers, regarding the treatment of wastewater containing food dyes and the different types of AOPs, with different catalyst and nanocatalyst materials obtained from traditional and green chemical syntheses.
