Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) is an oxidant applied in water treatment processes that is very effective for disinfection and abatement of inorganic and organic pollutants. Thereby phenol is the most important reaction partner of ClO2 in reactions of natural organic matter (NOM) and in pollutant degradation. It was previously reported that with specific r...

Bisphenol B (BPB, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl) butane), as a substitute for bisphenol A, has been widely detected in the environment and become a potential threat to environmental health. This work found that silver oxide nanoparticles (Ag2O) could greatly promote the removal of BPB by ferrate (Fe(VI)). With the presence of 463 mg/L Ag2O, the amount of...

Engineered heme proteins were developed to possess numerous excellent biocatalytic nitrenoid C-H functionalizations. Computational approaches such as density functional theory (DFT), hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM), and molecular dynamics (MD) calculations were employed to help understand some important mechanistic aspects of t...

In this study, the composite photocatalyst WO3/Fe3O4/Diatomite was developed by solvent thermal method to remove composite dyes from wastewater. The structure and properties of the photocatalyst were characterized and analyzed. Under the effect of Fe3O4, WO3 was found to be enhanced in the direction of (101) and (200) and loaded on the surface of d...

This work presents a reaction mechanism for oxygen plasmas, i.e. a set of reactions and corresponding rate coefficients that are validated against benchmark experiments. The kinetic scheme is validated in a DC glow discharge for gas pressures of 0.2–10 Torr and currents of 10–40 mA, using the 0D LisbOn KInetics simulation tool and available experim...

Formaldehyde (HCHO: FA) is one of the most abundant but hazardous gaseous pollutants. Transition metal oxide (TMO)-based thermocatalysts have gained much attention in its removal due to their excellent thermal stability and cost-effectiveness. Herein, a comprehensive review is offered to highlight the current progress in TMO-based thermocatalysts (...

Selective hydrogenation is one of the most important reactions in fine chemical industry, and the activation of H2 is the key step for hydrogenation. Catalysts play a critical role in selective hydrogenation, and some single-atom catalysts (SACs) are highly capable of activating H2 in selective hydrogenation by virtue of the maximized atom utilizat...
