Article Abstract
Nano Fe(III) oxide (FO) was used as an amendment material in CO-assisted pyrolysis of spent coffee grounds (SCG) and its impacts on the syngas (H & CO) generation and biochar adsorptive properties were investigated. Amendment of FO led to 153 and 682% increase of H and CO in pyrolytic process of SCG, respectively, which is deemed to arise from enhanced thermal cracking of hydrocarbons and oxygen transfer reaction mediated by FO. Incorporation of FO successfully created porous structure in the produced biochar. The adsorption tests revealed that the biochar exhibited bi-functional capability to remove both positively charged Cd(II) and Ni(II), and negatively charged Sb(V). The adsorption of Cd(II) and Ni(II) was hardly deteriorated in the multiple adsorption cycles, and the adsorption of Sb(V) was further enhanced through formation of surface ternary complexes. The overall results demonstrated nano Fe(III) oxide is a promising amendment material in CO-assisted pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass for enhancing syngas generation and producing functional biochar.

Chemodynamic therapy and sonodynamic therapy are two promising tumour therapeutic strategies. However, lack of highly effective sonosensitizers and control over chemodynamic therapy limit their application. Here we synthesize silver-doped zinc selenide quantum dots with atomically dispersed superficial Fe and show that they act as efficient sonosensitizers, catalysers and immunoreagents.

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most lethal primary brain tumor with limited therapeutic efficiency because of resistance to Temozolomide (TMZ), which is the standard chemotherapy drug. Here, we developed the metabolic adaptive strategy based on the complex TMZ resistance mechanisms, and engineered metal-phenolic networks (TBFP-MT MPNs) by self-assembly of PEG-polyphenol encapsulating Fe, TMZ, and dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) inhibitor, modifying T and cMBP for blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration and targeting resistant cells. TBFP-MT suppressed drug efflux by inhibiting mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET) signaling and reduced DNA repair protein O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) by blocking pyrimidine synthesis via DHODH inhibition.

Traditional tumor treatments focus on treating the location of the lesion, while immunogenic cell death (ICD) triggers systemic anti-tumor immunity and inhibits tumor metastasis. Therefore, there is a need to develop an inducer that amplifies ICD. Here, methotrexate (MTX) and MoO were loaded into a Cu-doped iron-based targeted metal-organic framework Fe-NH-MIL-101 with nano-enzymatic activity to establish a novel ICD amplifier.

Dissolved iron (Fe) species is an intriguing player in the overall alkaline water electrolysis (AWE) system, considered both as a poison that needs to be avoided and as a precursor for enhancing the water splitting activity. Here, we unveil the intricate mechanisms governing the Fe influence on practical AWE systems, by measuring the dynamic changes in cell voltage and overpotential of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The dissolved Fe will deposit on the cathode, which significantly enhances the HER activity of bare Ni mesh (BN) while showing negligible impact on the porous RANEY® Ni mesh (RN).

Biological iron reduction and reductive dehalogenation occur in similar ecological environments, however, how Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycles impact the microbial dehalogenation processes remains controversial. In this study, the favorable microbial reductive dechlorination activity has been widely observed in iron-rich river sediments by national sampling, with the dechlorination efficiency showing a positive correlation with the concentration of Fe(III). Microcosm experiments demonstrated that the addition of nano-hematite resulted in a maximum increase of 2.
