Advanced oxidation processes via semiconductor photocatalysis for water treatment have been the subject of extensive research over past three decades, producing many scientific reports focused on elucidating mechanisms and enhancing kinetics contaminants in water. Many these imply that ultimate goal is to apply municipal operations. However, this ignores immense technology transfer problems, perpetuating a widening gap between academic advocation industrial application. In Feature, we...

Ammonia has been used in important areas such as agriculture and clean energy. Its synthesis from the electrochemical reduction of N2 is an attractive alternative to industrial method that requires high temperature pressure. Currently, fixation suffered slow kinetics due difficulty adsorption N≡N cleavage. Here, N-doped porous carbon (NPC) reported a cost-effective electrocatalyst for ammonia electrocatalytic under ambient conditions, where its N content species were tuned enhance chemical...

Electrochemical reduction of CO2 is an attractive technique for reducing emission and converting it into useful chemicals, but suffers from high overpotential, low efficiency or poor product selectivity. Here, N-doped nanodiamond/Si rod array (NDD/Si RA) was proposed as efficient nonmetallic electrocatalyst reduction. It preferentially rapidly converted to acetate over formate with onset potential -0.36 V (vs RHE), overcoming the usual limitation selectivity C2 products. Moreover, faradic...

Photocatalytic production of H2O2 from the reduction O2 by semiconductor photocatalysts (e.g., graphitic carbon nitride, C3N4) has been regarded as an alternative for small-scale decentralized production. However, efficiency pristine C3N4 is still limited narrow light absorption range and rapid charge recombination. Here, we presented a facile approach to simultaneously enhance promote separation introducing alkali metal dopants N vacancies on C3N4. The introduction successfully broadened...
