Abstract
Non-oxidative ethanol dehydrogenation is a renewable source of acetaldehyde and hydrogen. The reaction is often catalyzed by supported copper catalysts with high selectivity. The activity and long-term stability depend on many factors, including particle size, choice of support, doping, etc. Herein, we present four different synthetic pathways to prepare Cu/SiO2 catalysts (∼2.5 wt % Cu) with varying copper distribution: hydrolytic sol-gel (sub-nanometer clusters), dry impregnation (A̅ = 3.4 nm; σ = 0.9 nm and particles up to 32 nm), strong electrostatic adsorption (A̅ = 3.1 nm; σ = 0.6 nm), and solvothermal hot injection followed by Cu particle deposition (A̅ = 4.0 nm; σ = 0.8 nm). All materials were characterized by ICP-OES, XPS, N2 physisorption, STEM-EDS, XRD, RFC N2O, and H2-TPR and tested in ethanol dehydrogenation from 185 to 325 °C. The sample prepared by hydrolytic sol-gel exhibited high Cu dispersion and, accordingly, the highest catalytic activity. Its acetaldehyde productivity (2.79 g g-1 h-1 at 255 °C) outperforms most of the Cu-based catalysts reported in the literature, but it lacks stability and tends to deactivate over time. On the other hand, the sample prepared by simple and cost-effective dry impregnation, despite having Cu particles of various sizes, was still highly active (2.42 g g-1 h-1 acetaldehyde at 255 °C). Importantly, it was the most stable sample out of the studied materials. The characterization of the spent catalyst confirmed its exceptional properties: it showed the lowest extent of both coking and particle sintering.

Abstract
A novel photocatalytic system of Cu/TiO2 for activation the C-H bond in the dehydrogenation of ethane to ethylene at room temperature is proposed. The optimized 1%-Cu/TiO2 catalyst achieved C2H6 conversion of 1.70%, C2H4 selectivity of 98.41%, and exhibited excellent stability. The active site Cuδ+ showed high dispersion on the TiO2 surface. Theoretical calculations and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy revealed a reaction mechanism: C2H6 is first activated by adsorption over the Cu4C/TiO2 catalyst with elongation of the C-H bond, attacked by h+/˙OH to form ethyl radicals, which are then converted to C2H4.

Abstract
The article presents the results of comparative research on the physicochemical characteristics and catalytic activity of copper oxide supported on synthetic SiO2 and SiO2 (RH) from rice husk. SiO2 (RH) is more hydrophobic compared to SiO2, which leads to the concentration of copper oxide on its surface in the form of a “crust”, which is very important in the synthesis of low-percentage catalysts. According to SEM, XRD, and TPR-H2, the use of SiO2 (RH) as a carrier leads to an increase in the dispersion of copper oxide particles, which is the active center of ethanol dehydrogenation.

Abstract
Selective dehydrogenation of ethanol to acetaldehyde has been considered as an important pathway to produce acetaldehyde due to the atom economy and easy separation of acetaldehyde and hydrogen. Copper catalysts have attracted much attention due to the high activity of Cu species in O-H and C-H bonds oxidative cleavage, and low process cost; however, the size of the Cu nanoparticle is difficult to control since it is easily suffers from metal sintering at high temperatures. In this work, the Cu/KIT-6 catalyst exhibited an ultra-high metal dispersion of 62.3% prepared by an electrostatic adsorption method, due to the advantages of the confinement effect of mesoporous nanostructures and the protective effect of ammonia water on Cu nanoparticles. The existence of an oxidation atmosphere had a significant effect on the valence state of copper species and enhancing moderate acid sites. The catalyst treated by reduction and then oxidation possessed a moderate/weak acid site ratio of ~0.42 and a suitable proportion of Cu+/Cu0 ratio of ~0.53, which conceivably rendered its superior ethanol conversion of 96.8% and full acetaldehyde selectivity at 250 °C. The catalyst also maintained a high selectivity of >99% to acetaldehyde upon time-on-stream of 288 h.

Abstract
This work is devoted to the study of the catalytic properties of Al2O3 and SiO2 in the process of thermal conversion of ethanol, as well as to the determination of the acid characteristics of these oxides The catalytic properties of oxides in the thermal conversion of ethanol were studied in a flow-through mode at a reaction temperature of 250°C and a space velocity of 0,5 h-1. The acidic characteristics of the Al2O3 and SiO2 oxides were determined by the method temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (TPD-NH3).
It has been established that the process of thermal conversion of ethanol includes the reactions of dehydration, dehydrogenation and dimerization. During the thermal conversion of ethanol on aluminum and silicon oxides, a dehydration reaction occurs with the formation of diethyl ether, with concentrations of 24,5 vol. % on Al2O3 and 19,6 vol. % on SiO2. It was determined that in parallel with the reaction of ethanol dehydration, its dehydrogenation with the formation of acetaldehyde takes place, but with a lower selectivity compared to dehydration. It was found that on Al2O3, which has a lower acidity in comparison with SiO2, the deformation of acetaldehyde occurs with the formation of butanol.

Abstract
As the search for carbon-efficient synthesis pathways for green alternatives to fossil fuels continues, an expanding class of catalysts have been developed for the upgrading of lower alcohols. Understanding of the acid base functionalities has greatly influenced the search for new materials, but the influence of the metal used in catalysts cannot be explained in a broader sense. We address this herein and correlate our findings with the most fundamental understanding of chemistry to date by applying it to d-band theory as part of an experimental investigation. The commercial catalysts of Pt, Rh, Ru, Cu, Pd, and Ir on carbon as a support have been characterized by means of SEM, EDX-mapping, STEM, XRD, N2-physisorption, and H2-chemisorption. Their catalytic activity has been established by means of c-methylation of ethanol with methanol. For all catalysts, the TOF with respect to i-butanol was examined. The Pt/C reached the highest TOF with a selectivity towards i-butanol of 89%. The trend for the TOFs could be well correlated with the d-band centers of the metal, which formed a volcano curve. Therefore, this study is another step towards the rationalization of catalyst design for the upgrading of alcohols into carbon-neutral fuels or chemical feedstock.

Abstract
Acid mine drainage (AMD) formation and toxic arsenic (As) pollution are serious environmental problems encountered worldwide. In this study, we investigated the crucial roles played by common secondary mineral phases formed during the natural weathering of pyrite-bearing wastes-soluble salts (melanterite, FeSO4·7H2O) and metal oxides (hematite, Fe2O3)-on AMD formation and As mobility under acidic conditions (pH 1.5-4) prevalent in historic tailings storage facilities, pyrite-bearing rock dumps and AMD-contaminated soils and sediments. Our results using a pyrite-rich natural geological material containing arsenopyrite (FeAsS) showed that melanterite and hematite both directly-by supplying H+ and/or oxidants (Fe3+)-and indirectly-via changes in the nature of oxidation layer formed on pyrite-influenced pyrite oxidation dynamics. Based on SEM-EDS, DRIFT spectroscopy and XPS results, the oxidation layer on pyrite was mainly composed of ferric arsenate and K-Jarosite when melanterite was abundant with/without hematite but changed to Fe-oxyhydroxide/oxide and scorodite when melanterite was low and hematite was present. This study also observed the formation of a mechanically 'strong' coating on pyrite that suppressed the mineral's oxidation. Finally, As mobility under acidic conditions was limited by its precipitation as ferric arsenate, scorodite, or a Fe/Al arsenate phase, including its strong adsorption to Fe-oxyhydroxides/oxides.

Abstract
Conventional fossil fuels such as gasoline or diesel should be substituted in the future by environmentally-friendly alternatives in order to reduce emissions in the transport sector and thus mitigate global warming. In this regard, iso-butanol is very promising as its chemical and physical properties are very similar to those of gasoline. Therefore, ongoing research deals with the development of catalytically-supported synthesis routes to iso-butanol, starting from renewably-generated methanol. This research has already revealed that the dehydrogenation of ethanol plays an important role in the reaction sequence from methanol to iso-butanol. To improve the fundamental understanding of the ethanol dehydrogenation step, the Temporal Analysis of Products (TAP) methodology was applied to illuminate that the catalysts used, Pt/C, Ir/C and Cu/C, are very active in ethanol adsorption. H2 and acetaldehyde are formed on the catalyst surfaces, with the latter quickly decomposing into CO and CH4 under the given reaction conditions. Based on the TAP results, this paper proposes a reaction scheme for ethanol dehydrogenation and acetaldehyde decomposition on the respective catalysts. The samples are characterized by means of N2 sorption and Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM).

Abstract
A series of Cu@Pd/C with different Pd contents was prepared using the galvanic reduction method to disperse Pd on the surface of Cu nanoparticles on Cu/C. The dispersion of Pd was regulated by the Cu(I) on the surface, which was introduced by pulse oxidation. The Cu2O did not react during the galvanic reduction process and restricted the Pd atoms to a specific area. The pulse oxidation method was demonstrated to be an effective process to control the oxidization degree of Cu on Cu/C and then to govern the dispersion of Pd. The catalysts were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), high angular annular dark field scanning TEM (HAADF-STEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) mapping, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), auger electron spectroscopy (AES), and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), which were used to catalyze the hydrogen evolution from ammonia borane. The Cu@Pd/C had much higher activity than the PdCu/C, which was prepared by the impregnation method. The TOF increased as the Cu2O in Cu/C used for the preparation of Cu@Pd/C increased, and the maximum TOF was 465 molH2 min-1 molPd-1 at 298 K on Cu@Pd0.5/C-640 (0.5 wt % of Pd, 640 mL of air was pulsed during the preparation of Cu/C-640). The activity could be maintained in five continuous processes, showing the strong stability of the catalysts.

We investigate the catalytic performance of Fe-supported MOF NU-1000 for the dehydrogenation of ethanol to acetaldehyde with nitrous oxide (N2O) by deriving the relevant reaction profiles with density functional theory calculations. In the proposed mechanism, the activation barrier of the rate-determining step is almost four times lower in the presence of N2O than without it. The supported NU-1000 framework plays also important role since it facilitates electron transfers and stabilizes all species along the reaction coordinate. When considering the catalytic activity of tetravalent metal centers (Zr, Hf and Ti) substituted into NU-1000 it is found that their activity decreases in the order Hf ≥ Zr > Ti, based on activation energies and turnover frequencies (TOF). Concerning MOF linkers, we show that the catalytic activity is not further improved by functionalizing NU-1000 with either electron-donating or electron-withdrawing organic groups.

Abstract
The coordination number between copper and nitrogen in copper/nitrogen-based electrocatalysts is important for boosting the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, it is difficult to control unsaturated copper/nitrogen constructions as well as to compare their ORR performances in similar carbon matrices in a simple yet efficient manner. In this study, we have easily attained two types of Cu+ -N2 and Cu2+ -N4 constructions simply by etching pyrolyzed Cu-doped zeolitic imidazolate framework nanoleaves (Cu-ZIF-L) with sulfuric acid or nitric acid, respectively. X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra were recorded to further confirm the different copper/nitrogen constructions after the different acid treatments. Electrochemical studies have demonstrated that Cu+ -N2 sites are more active in boosting the ORR performance than Cu2+ -N4 sites. Furthermore, Cu-N/C-H2 SO4 , used as an air cathode in a zinc-air battery, exhibited excellent performance and stability.

Abstract
Nonstoichiometric tungsten oxides (WO3-x) with abundant oxygen vacancies were synthesized and used as nonmetallic plasmonic photocatalysts to promote ethanol dehydrogenation under UV-visible light irradiation. Plasmonic WO3-x have unique electronic structures that act as Z-scheme heterostructures. UV-excited photoelectrons were injected into the conduction band of WO3-x, stabilizing the free electron density and boosting plasmonic hot electron generation for ethanol dehydrogenation. The synergetic effect of UV and visible light excitations greatly enhances the aldehyde generation to 2696 μmol g-1 (3 hours) with a high selectivity of 91%, which is 74-fold and 12-fold higher than those obtained under only UV or visible light irradiation, respectively.

Abstract
In this work, Cu nanoparticles (Cu NPs, 2-20 nm) supported on Hydrotalcite catalysts exhibit enhanced selectivity for γ-valerolactone (GVL) during hydrogenolysis of levulinic acid (LA). At 260 °C, over 3 wt% Cu achieved 87.5% of LA conversion with a maximum GVL selectivity (95%). In contrast, LA hydrogenolysis over 3Cu/Hydrotalcite catalyst is highly active and stable toward the production of GVL due to balanced acido-basicity and higher Cu dispersion with ultrasmall particle sizes, which are investigated through the temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of ammonia, N2O titration, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis. Hydrotalcite in combination with inexpensive Cu catalyst is found to be an efficient and environmentally benign for LA hydrogenolysis.

Abstract
The hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of nanocatalysts has a significant impact on their performances via modulating the adsorption, transfer, and desorption of reactants/products. In this work, we reported a novel multifunctional amphiphilic nanoreactor composed of Janus nitrogen-doped carbon@silica hollow nanostructure and ultrasmall Pt nanoparticles. The core/shell polybenzoxazine@mesosilica spheres were used as the precursor for pyrolysis. It was found that the internal polybenzoxazine was decomposed from interior to exterior and transformed into a nitrogen-doped carbon hollow shell that partly embedded into the mesosilica layer, forming the Janus hollow spheres. The obtained nanoreactor showed remarkable activity and selectivity for base-free aerobic oxidation of alcohols in water using air as the oxidant. A one-pot oxidation-condensation cascade reaction was also successfully demonstrated to synthesize imines from alcohols and amines with good yields. The sorption analyses revealed that the superior hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity strengthened both adsorption of hydrophobic alcohols from water and desorption of byproduct water molecules from the active sites. The doped nitrogen atoms in the carbon matrix were used not only as anchoring sites for stabilizing ultrasmall Pt nanoparticles but also as basic active sites for accelerating the deprotonation process. Moreover, due to the anchoring effect of nitrogen and the extremely stable amphiphilicity, this nanoreactor exhibited excellent catalytic stability.
