Ferro-, piezo-, and pyroelectric materials are emerging as potential candidates for converting various forms of primary energy from the ambient environment (e.g., sunlight, mechanical, thermal energy) into secondary chemical energy). Despite relatively short investigation time, much progress has been made related to this field. This review covers fundamental principles coupling ferro-, effects with different catalytic reactions; crucial role a polarization-induced internal electric field in...
Pollutant degradation via periodate (IO4-)-based advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) provides an economical, energy-efficient way for sustainable pollution control. Although single-atomic metal activation (SMA) can be exploited to optimize the process and understand associated mechanisms governing IO4--based AOPs, studies on this topic are rare. Herein, we demonstrated first instance of using SMA IO4- analysis by employing atomically dispersed Co active sites supported N-doped graphene...
Calcium-looping reforming of methane helps close the anthropogenic carbon cycle directly at large CO 2 stationary sources.
Bi<sub>0.5</sub>Na<sub>0.5</sub>TiO<sub>3</sub>nanospheres show superior piezo-photocatalytic activity in water splitting, Cr(<sc>vi</sc>) reduction and degradation of organic pollutants.
Semiconductor photocatalysts are of great importance for addressing current environmental and energy crises. However, traditional powdery photocatalytic materials suffer from drawbacks, including difficult separation weak durability, which do not conform to the practical demand. Herein, we developed a simple dipping-pyrolysis route fabricate novel 3D structure microreactor, in ZIF-8-derived hollow ZnO nanocages uniformly firmly distributed throughout surface reduced graphene oxide...
Calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) is a potential new material for effective heavy metal adsorption, but the high manufacturing costs and difficult reusability have restricted its large-scale application. Herein, we report green facile strategy to prepare amorphous hierarchically structured CSH-based nanocomposites from steel slag removal. The obtained flowerlike materials showed fast adsorption rates superior capacities all employed ions (Cu(II), Pb(II), Zn(II)), with maximum of approximately...
Accounting for ~8% of annual global CO2 emissions, the iron and steel industry is expected to undertake largest contribution industrial decarbonisation. Despite launch several national regional programmes low-carbon steelmaking, techno-economically feasible options are still lacking. Here, based on carbon capture storage (CCS) strategy, we propose a new decarbonisation concept which exploits inherent potential through calcium-looping lime production. We find that this allows mills reach 2050...
Constructing heterojunctions with face-to-face interface is a new avenue for accelerating the charge separation in semiconductor photocatalysts toward highly efficient solar water splitting systems. Here, novel SnS2/TiO2 2D–2D ultrathin nanosheet heterostructure was fabricated via hydrothermal route two steps. The obtained nanojunction has not only provided large contact areas but also shortened transport distance, resulting significantly enhanced photocatalytic H2 evolution property....
Piezocatalysis provides a promising strategy for directly converting weak mechanical energy into chemical energy. In this work, we report simple one-step hydrogen reduction route the simultaneous generation of surface defects and heterojunctions in Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6 nanorods fabricated by molten salt synthesis method. The as-fabricated Sr0.5Ba0.5Nb2O6/Sr2Nb2O7 nanocomposites with controllable oxygen vacancies exhibited excellent piezocatalytic activity under ultrasonic vibration, an about 7...
Solid amine adsorbents are among the most promising CO2 adsorption technologies for biogas upgrading due to their high selectivity toward CO2, low energy consumption, and easy regeneration. However, in cases, these undergo severe chemical inactivation urea formation when regenerated under a realistic atmosphere. Herein, we demonstrated facile efficient synthesis route, involving of nano-Al2O3 support derived from coal fly ash with flow as precipitant preparation polyethylenimine...
