In this study, we investigate the changes in the crystalline structure of MBE-deposited SrTiO3 layers on Si with different deviations from Sr/Ti stoichiometry as deposited but also after annealing at high temperatures (>600 °C). We show that as-grown 15 nm thick non-stochiometric SrTiO3 layers present surprisingly lower FWHM values of the (002) ome...
CuxCoyCez-LDH prepared with layered double hydroxides (LDHs) as precursors was calcined to form CuxCoyCezO catalysts which were experimentally investigated for the selective catalytic reduction of NO by C3H6 (C3H6-SCR) in a fixed bed micro-reactor in the presence of O2. The physical–chemical properties of the catalysts were characterized and analyz...
The choice of reducing agents and their impact on catalytic performance are important aspects of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology. Marking the inaugural use of C3H6 as a reducing agent with the BTC catalyst, a bimetallic organic framework (xCu-Mn-BTC) was prepared and tested as a catalyst for NOx reduction under oxygen-enriched condit...
The Daniell cell (Cu vs. Zn), was invented almost two centuries ago, but has been set aside due to its non-rechargeable nature and limited energy density. However, these cells are exceptionally sustainable because they do not require rare earth elements, are aqueous and easy to recycle. This work addresses key challenges in making Daniell cells rel...
Simultaneously improving both NOx conversion and N2 selectivity in the selective catalytic reduction of NO by CO (CO-SCR) under O2-containing conditions is highly challenging because of the competitive reactions of NOx and CO with O2. Here, we demonstrate that the interfacial oxygen vacancies (IOVs) generated at the Co3O4-CeO2 heterointerfaces by b...

The soil sorption coefficient (Kd) of glyphosate mainly controls its transport and fate in the environment. Laboratory-based analysis of Kd is laborious and expensive. This study aimed to test the feasibility of visible near-infrared spectroscopy (vis–NIRS) as an alternative method for glyphosate Kd estimation at a country scale and compare its acc...
