Abstract
Most of the materials studied as catalysts in the electro-Fenton system are variants of iron oxide or iron hydroxide. However, iron-based catalysts often exhibit weak catalytic capabilities under neutral and alkaline conditions. In this work, we synthesized three cobalt based bimetallic oxides, Co2CuOx, Co2AlOx, and Co2NiOx, using hydrothermal method and evaluated them as catalysts for the heterogeneous electro-Fenton system to remove 1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) and Methylisothiazolinone [2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one] (MIT). Co2NiOx has the highest catalytic degradation activity for HEDP, and Co2CuOx has the best catalytic degradation effect for MIT. Based on characterization results of the catalysts, the reasons for the differences in the pollutant removal efficiency were analysed, and the optimal pH for the three cobalt based oxides to remove HEDP and MIT was investigated. The results showed that the optimal pH values of the three cobalt based bimetallic oxides are not only influenced by the second metal type, but also by the properties of pollutants. Therefore, suitable cobalt based catalysts can be selected based on the different properties of pollutants, or the composition of cobalt based catalysts can be adjusted to meet the different pH requirements of target wastewater. The three cobalt based bimetallic oxides exhibited good degradation of HEDP and MIT under neutral conditions, which to some extent solved the problem of narrow pH range in the practical application of the electro-Fenton process.

[PMID: 38202858 PMCID: PMC10781053 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29010277] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
A novel Mn/TiO2 catalyst, prepared through modification with the rare-earth metal Dy, has been employed for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) denitrification. Anatase TiO2, with its large specific surface area, serves as the carrier. The active component MnOx on the TiO2 carrier is modified using Dy. DyxMn/TiO2, prepared via the impregnation method, exhibited remarkable catalytic performance in the SCR of NO with NH3 as the reducing agent at low temperatures. Experiments and characterization revealed that the introduction of a suitable amount of the rare-earth metal Dy can effectively enhance the catalyst's specific surface area and the gas-solid contact area in catalytic reactions. It also significantly increases the concentration of Mn4+, chemisorbed oxygen, and weak acid sites on the catalyst surface. This leads to a notable improvement in the reduction performance of the DyMn/TiO2 catalyst, ultimately contributing to the improvement of the NH3-SCR denitrification performance at low temperatures. At 100 °C and a space velocity of 24,000 h-1, the Dy0.1Mn/TiO2 catalyst can achieve a 98% conversion rate of NOx. Furthermore, its active temperature point decreases by 60 °C after the modification, highlighting exceptional catalytic efficacy at low temperatures. By doubling the space velocity, the NOx conversion rate of the catalyst can still reach 96% at 130 °C, indicating significant operational flexibility. The selectivity of N2 remained stable at over 95% before reaching 240 °C.

Synergistic Catalytic Performance of Toluene Degradation Based on Non-Thermal Plasma and Mn/Ce-Based Bimetal-Organic Frameworks. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27217363.

Abstract
A series of Mn/Ce-based bimetal-organic frameworks, recorded as MCDx (x = 1, 2, 4, 6), were prepared by a solvothermal synthesis method to explore their effects and performance in the synergistic catalysis of toluene under the irradiation of non-thermal plasma. The catalytic properties of different manganese loadings in MCDx for degradation of toluene were investigated. The microphysical structures of the material were analyzed by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results showed that a MCDx coupling with non-thermal plasma can greatly improve the degradation efficiency, the energy efficiency and the CO2 selectivity, and could also significantly reduce the generation of O3 in the by-products. Among the test samples, MCD6 with Mn:Ce = 6:1 (molar ratio) showed the best catalytic performance and stability, exhibited toluene catalytic efficiency 95.2%, CO2 selectivity 84.2% and energy efficiency 5.99 g/kWh, and reduced O3 emission concentration 81.6%. This research provides a reference for the development and application of synergistic catalysis based on bimetal-organic frameworks and non-thermal plasma in the reduction of industrial volatile organic compounds.

Non-Thermal Plasma-Modified Ru-Sn-Ti Catalyst for Chlorinated Volatile Organic Compound Degradation. Catalysts 2020.

Abstract
Chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs) are vital environmental concerns due to their low biodegradability and long-term persistence. Catalytic combustion technology is one of the more commonly used technologies for the treatment of CVOCs. Catalysts with high low-temperature activity, superior selectivity of non-toxic products, and resistance to chlorine poisoning are desirable. Here we adopted a plasma treatment method to synthesize a tin-doped titania loaded with ruthenium dioxide (RuO2) catalyst, possessing enhanced activity (T90%, the temperature at which 90% of dichloromethane (DCM) is decomposed, is 262 °C) compared to the catalyst prepared by the conventional calcination method. As revealed by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction, the high surface area of the tin-doped titania catalyst and the enhanced dispersion and surface oxidation of RuO2 induced by plasma treatment were found to be the main factors determining excellent catalytic activities.

Comprehensive Comparison between Nanocatalysts of Mn−Co/TiO2 and Mn−Fe/TiO2 for NO Catalytic Conversion: An Insight from Nanostructure, Performance, Kinetics, and Thermodynamics. Catalysts 2019.

Abstract
The nanocatalysts of Mn−Co/TiO2 and Mn−Fe/TiO2 were synthesized by hydrothermal method and comprehensively compared from nanostructures, catalytic performance, kinetics, and thermodynamics. The physicochemical properties of the nanocatalysts were analyzed by N2 adsorption, transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), H2-temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), NH3-temperature-programmed desorption (TPD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Based on the multiple characterizations performed on Mn−Co/TiO2 and Mn−Fe/TiO2 nanocatalysts, it can be confirmed that the catalytic properties were decidedly dependent on the phase compositions of the nanocatalysts. The Mn−Co/TiO2 sample presented superior structure characteristics than Mn−Fe/TiO2, with the increased surface area, the promoted active components distribution, the diminished crystallinity, and the reduced nanoparticle size. Meanwhile, the Mn4+/Mnn+ ratios in the Mn−Co/TiO2 nanocatalyst were higher than Mn−Fe/TiO2, which further confirmed the better oxidation ability and the larger amount of Lewis acid sites and Bronsted acid sites on the sample surface. Compared to Mn−Fe/TiO2 nanocatalyst, Mn−Co/TiO2 nanocatalyst displayed the preferable catalytic property with higher catalytic activity and stronger selectivity in the temperature range of 75–250 °C. The results of mechanism and kinetic study showed that both Eley-Rideal mechanism and Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism reactions contributed to selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR) over Mn−Fe/TiO2 and Mn−Co/TiO2 nanocatalysts. In this test condition, the NO conversion rate of Mn−Co/TiO2 nanocatalyst was always higher than that of Mn−Fe/TiO2. Furthermore, comparing the reaction between doping transition metal oxides and NH3, the order of temperature−Gibbs free energy under the same reaction temperature is as follows: Co3O4 < CoO < Fe2O3 < Fe3O4, which was exactly consistent with nanostructure characterization and NH3-SCR performance. Meanwhile, the activity difference of MnOx exhibited in reducibility properties and Ellingham Diagrams manifested the promotion effects of cobalt and iron dopings. Generally, it might offer a theoretical method to select superior doping metal oxides for NO conversion by comprehensive comparing the catalytic performance with the insight from nanostructure, catalytic performance, reaction kinetics, and thermodynamics.
