Article Abstract
Fenton iron mud (IM) is a hazardous solid waste produced by Fenton oxidation technology after treating industrial wastewater. Thus, it is necessary and challenging to develop a recycling technology to back-convert dangerous materials into useful products. Herein, we develop a sustainable approach to prepare highly active metal oxides via a solid-state grinding method. IM, as an amorphous material, can disperse and interact well with these supported metal oxides, boosting toluene degradation significantly. Among these IM-based catalysts, the catalyst 8% MnO/IM-0.2VC exhibits the best performance ( = 290 °C), originating from the oxide-support interaction and optimal balance between low-temperature reducibility and oxygen vacancy concentration. In addition, diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectrometry (DRIFTS) results expound that ring breakage is prone to occur on MnO, and oxygen vacancies are beneficial to adsorb oxygen and activate oxygen species to boost toluene oxidation following the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism. This work advances a complete industrial hazardous waste recycling route to develop extremely active catalysts.

The electron-deficient oxidant 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) has recently emerged as a promising visible-light photoredox catalyst. However, its excited-state behavior remains poorly understood. Here, we investigate the ultrafast dynamics of photoexcited DDQ in acetonitrile using transient electronic and infrared absorption spectroscopy, supported by quantum chemical calculations.

A sensitive electrochemical glucose biosensor using ZrO₂@CNTs nanocomposite was developed for real-time metabolism monitoring for athletes. The nanocomposite was prepared by a simple ultrasound-assisted technique, and the glucose oxidase (GOx) was covalently immobilized to improve the biorecognition ability. CNTs treated with acid served as a highly conductive framework, and ZrO₂ nanoparticles can provide structural stability and catalytic performance, thus showing synergistic enhancement of electron transfer kinetics and enzyme loading capacity.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in water poses a critical global challenge. A novel nanocomposite, montmorillonite (Mt)-supported nanoscale zero-valent iron (Mt-nZVI), synthesized by liquid phase reduction, offers a promising method for effectively removing Cd. The material underwent characterization through various techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM).

In this study, we analyze InO thin-film transistors (InO-TFT) using synchrotron-based hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES) in conditions. A bottom-gate InO-TFT with a high- AlO gate dielectric, grown on thermally oxidized silicon (SiO/p-Si), was examined while operating at varying and . The results reveal that the In 3d core level binding energy varies along the horizontal channel length, driven by the potential gradient induced by .

The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in conventional zinc-air batteries (ZABs) involves a complex multielectron transfer process, leading to slow reaction kinetics, high charging voltage, and low energy efficiency. To address these limitations, a zinc-ethanol/air battery (ZEAB) system that strategically replaces the OER with the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) possessing a lower thermodynamic potential has been proposed. Herein, a bimetallic catalyst CuCo-embedded nitrogen-doped carbon (CuCo-20%-1), derived from a Cu/Co/Cd co-coordinated metal-organic precursor, is synthesized and exhibits an excellent performance for both EOR and ORR.
