Intermediate Sr 2 Co 1.5 Fe 0.5 O 6-δ Tetragonal Structure between Perovskite and Brownmillerite as a Model Catalyst with Layered Oxygen Deficiency for Enhanced Electrochemical Water Oxidation

The generation of hydrogen in an environmentally benign way is highly essential to meet future energy demands. However, in the process of splitting water electrochemically, sluggish kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) curtails its applicability, as it drags energy input. Herein, we synthesized SrCo-Fe-O oxides to optimize their OER activity by varying the Co/Fe ratio. Among them, Sr 2 Co 1.5 Fe 0.5 O 6-δ exhibited the best OER catalytic activity in the series, with an overpotential of 318 mV at 10 mA cm -2 and Tafel slope of 44.8 mV dec -1 . High-resolution neutron powder diffraction analysis identified an intermediate structure between the perovskite and brownmillerite, with alternating layers of disorderly orientated oxygen-deficient tetrahedra and fully stoichiometric octahedra. The unique stacking of tetrahedral and octahedral units facilitates desired interactions between the electrode surface and electrolyte. Theoretical calculations revealed that increased covalency of Co 3d and O 2p in Sr 2 Co 1.5 Fe 0.5 O 6-δ oxide is another primary contributor to its augmented water oxidation ability. As a model for developing catalysts with such an intermediate structure, the synergetic effect of oxygen vacancy and hybridization between Co 3d and O 2p assured the Sr 2 Co 1.5 Fe 0.5 O 6-δ oxide as a better catalyst for its enhanced OER activity.

Boosting the performance of reversible solid oxide electrochemical cells with a novel hybrid oxygen electrode, Pr 1.39 Ba 0.14 Sr 0.53 Co 1.48 Fe 0.76 O 6- δ -Ba 0.66 Sr 0.34 CoO 3- δ

Solid oxide electrochemical cells (SOECs) stand out as a highly promising clean energy technology that offers several benefits, showing significant potential to play a pivotal role in the transition towards a sustainable and low-carbon energy future. SOECs can efficiently convert the chemical energy stored in fuels to electricity in fuel cell mode, and produce various chemicals from abundant feedstocks (e.g., CO 2 , H 2 O) and intermittent solar/wind-based renewable electricity. Despite extensive efforts that have been devoted to designing novel materials and optimizing SOEC manufacturing processes, aiming to achieve enhanced energy efficiency, the current SOECs still suffer from poor performance, which is mainly due to the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) kinetics. To address this challenge, in this work, we have successfully designed an in situ formed hybrid oxygen electrode material (Pr 1.39 Ba 0.14 Sr 0.53 Co 1.48 Fe 0.76 O 6- δ -Ba 0.66 Sr 0.34 CoO 3- δ ), which significantly improves the surface oxygen exchange coefficient and bulk oxygen-ion diffusion coefficient, enhancing the OER and ORR electrocatalytic activities. Further, the SOECs equipped with this newly developed oxygen electrode achieved exceptional performance for power generation using both hydrogen and propane as the fuels. At 750 °C, a peak power density of 2.4 W cm -2 was obtained with H 2 as the fuel. Additionally, the SOECs attain unprecedented performance in steam electrolysis mode. A current density of 4.4 A cm -2 was achieved at 1.3 V and 750 °C, which represents the highest performance among all yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte-based SOECs. The SOECs also deliver remarkable stability during the accelerated stability testing, highlighting the great potential of Pr 1.39 Ba 0.14 Sr 0.53 Co 1.48 Fe 0.76 O 6- δ -Ba 0.66 Sr 0.34 CoO 3- δ as a high-performance oxygen electrode for next generation SOECs.

Transient kinetic insights into selective propene oxidation over industrial bismuth molybdate catalysts

Selective oxidation of propene to acrolein over industrial multicomponent bismuth molybdate (BMO) catalysts significantly depends on reaction conditions that include operating parameters and catalyst state. Here, this work investigates selective propene oxidation in the intrinsic kinetic paradigm of Temporal Analysis of Products (TAP) reactor by systematically varying catalyst redox state, temperature, and oxygen-to-propene feed ratio. A 93 % propene conversion with an acrolein yield of 80 % is achieved at elevated temperatures (450 °C) on oxidized catalysts under oxygen-rich conditions (O 2 :C 3 H 6 = 10). However, these conditions diminish acrolein-to-CO 2 selectivity due to enhanced total oxidation to CO 2 . In contrast, a reduced catalyst state, moderate temperature (350 °C), and lower oxygen feed (O 2 :C 3 H 6 = 1) nearly doubles the acrolein to-CO 2 selectivity, albeit at a lower acrolein yield (33 %). Transient kinetic studies together with a kinetic model that simplify the major product formation pathways in lumped non-elementary forms reveal that the availability of surface oxygen species plays a pivotal role in governing reaction pathways. Additionally, density functional theory (DFT) calculations on pure BMO catalysts inform the role of surface redox states on propene and oxygen activation barriers. Lattice oxygen at acrolein-selective sites drives both acrolein and CO 2 formation, while adsorbed oxygen at activation sites favors unselective CO 2 generation. This work establishes a critical relationship between transient product selectivity and surface oxygen availability, which is strongly influenced by catalyst redox state, feed ratio, and reaction temperature. These insights underscore the importance of dynamic reactor operation strategies and offer a foundation for designing next-generation propene oxidation processes with tunable acrolein selectivity.

Understanding and promoting the reaction kinetics of photothermally driven Diels–Alder reaction with minimized side reactions

The thermoreversible Diels–Alder (DA) reaction involving furan and maleimide precursors has been extensively exploited to develop reversible thermosets for circular economy and additive manufacturing. Recently, applications of photothermal nanoparticles, which can absorb light and generate nanoscale heat, have gained significant attention in driving the Diels–Alder (DA) reaction more efficiently. This approach can be utilized by various applications, for example, solar light-enhanced recycling, self-healing at targeted area, and photothermal 3-D printing. Here, in this work, we address an important fundamental question on the photothermal approach: how does the reaction kinetics of the photothermally driven DA reaction compared to that of the conventional heat driven one? We found that the forward DA reaction kinetics varies dramatically depending on a type of heat sources, i.e., light-induced photothermal heat or conventional heat, despite of a similar bulk temperature. We observed that the light-induced photothermal heat significantly enhances the DA reaction rate in comparison to the bulk heating in an inert environment. On the contrary, the photothermally driven forward DA reaction is significantly slower than that of the heat driven reaction in the presence of oxygen. This is attributed to the photoexcited electrons in photothermal nanoparticles that can generate singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) in the presence of visible light. This singlet oxygen may facilitate an endoperoxide side reaction on the furan group, ultimately, retard the DA reaction from the furan group. These results reveal the effectiveness of photothermal nanoparticles in accelerating DA reaction while underscoring the need to minimize oxygen exposure to prevent unfavorable side reactions.

Elucidating the impact of the ionomer equivalent weight on a platinum group metal-free PEMFC cathode via oxygen limiting current

Leveraging the interactions between ionomer and catalyst can increase the performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. The impacts of the equivalent weight (EW) of perfluorosulfonic acid–based ionomers on the platinum group metal-free electrode structure and fuel cell performance have not been fully explored. Four membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) were prepared by using a commercial Fe–N–C catalyst, two perfluorosulfonic acid ionomers with different EWs, that is, Aquivion 720 (A720) and Nafion 1100 (N1100), and two ionomer-to-catalyst (I/C) ratios. The four MEAs were characterized to understand the impact of the ionomer EW and content on the capacitance, proton conductivity, and mass transport on the cathode. The mass transport resistance was measured for the first time using a new oxygen reduction reaction limiting current method enabling to couple the effects of oxygen diffusion with liquid water generation. Low EW ionomer combined with a moderate I/C results in improved performance due to its enhanced proton conductivity. However, when used at high I/C, it can cause severe water flooding at high current density due to the enhanced liquid water uptake, especially at high relative humidity, resulting in lower catalyst utilization and higher mass transport resistance.

Develop a Simulation Framework for Understanding Physico-Chemical Processes and Optimization of CHZ' Plastic Thermolyze Technology (CRADA Final Report)

Thermolyzer(TM) technology is a third-generation, multi-reactor, oxygen-free, low pressure, slow pyrolysis process. It has proven to be remarkably versatile in successfully processing all types of hydrocarbon waste. These include all seven types of plastics, tires, auto shredder residue, carpet, electronic waste, and composites. Working with the IACMI, Thermolyzer(TM) technology has recovered the glass and carbon fibers from wind turbine blades for reuse into new applications. Its primary output is a synthesis gas that is rich in H 2 , CH 4 , and small amounts of C 2-4 aliphatic hydrocarbons. Other components are CO and CO 2 . Three unique features set Thermolyzer(TM) apart from other pyrolysis systems: the syngas is clean enough to run in Siemens or Solar gas turbines or IC engines without fouling, clean, salable, byproducts are produced, and CO 2 emissions are lower than natural gas power plants. Research results have been obtained from an operating 7 ton/day facility. A 44 ton/day plant has successfully operated as noted above. The process works because it makes use of the recoverable embodied energy in the feedstock. Surprisingly, a pound of some plastics has the same recoverable energy content as a pound of gasoline. Thus, it is imperative to develop a process that economically converts scrap plastics (including ocean plastics) into energy and thereby conserve the non-renewable fossil fuels for future generations. The Thermolyzer(TM) technology can also be used to create liquid fuels like gasoline and diesel from hydrocarbon wastes. Because of the high hydrogen content of the synthesis gas, hydrogen can be recovered more inexpensively than the current solar or wind energy being used to electrolyze water. That hydrogen can be used for fuel cell powered vehicles or converted into ammonia for agriculture or as a hydrogen storage medium. Extension of this technology to other wastes such as tires, auto shredder residue or wood wastes would expand the circular economy.

Controlled and Selective Photo-oxidation of Amyloid-β Fibrils by Oligomeric p-Phenylene Ethynylenes

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been explored as a therapeutic strategy to clear toxic amyloid aggregates involved in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. A major limitation of PDT is off-target oxidation, which can be lethal for the surrounding cells. In this work, we have shown that a novel class of oligo-p-phenylene ethynylenes (OPEs) exhibit selective binding and fluorescence turn-on in the presence of prefibrillar and fibrillar aggregates of disease-relevant proteins such as amyloid-β (Aβ) and α-synuclein. Concomitant with fluorescence turn-on, OPE also photosensitizes singlet oxygen under illumination through the generation of a triplet state, pointing to the potential application of OPEs as photosensitizers in PDT. Herein, we investigated the photosensitizing activity of an anionic OPE for the photo-oxidation of Aβ fibrils and compared its efficacy to the well-known but nonselective photosensitizer methylene blue (MB). Our results show that, while MB photo-oxidized both monomeric and fibrillar conformers of Aβ40, OPE oxidized only Aβ40 fibrils, targeting two histidine residues on the fibril surface and a methionine residue located in the fibril core. Oxidized fibrils were shorter and more dispersed but retained the characteristic β-sheet rich fibrillar structure and the ability to seed further fibril growth. Importantly, the oxidized fibrils displayed low toxicity. We have thus discovered a class of novel theranostics for the simultaneous detection and oxidization of amyloid aggregates. Importantly, the selectivity of OPE’s photosensitizing activity overcomes the limitation of off-target oxidation of traditional photosensitizers and represents an advancement of PDT as a viable strategy to treat neurodegenerative disorders.

Electronic Structural Optimization of the Air Electrodes for Reversible Protonic Ceramic Electrochemical Cells via IIIA Cation Doping

Reversible protonic ceramic electrochemical cells (R-PCECs) have emerged as a novel technology for clean and efficient energy generation and storage. Improving the oxygen and proton conduction characteristics and stability of air electrodes at intermediate temperatures is crucial for achieving a high performance. Herein, we optimize the electronic structure of a state-of-the-art PrBa 0.8 Ca 0.2 Co 2 O 5+δ (PBCC) air electrode via doping IIIA cations (Al 3+ , Ga 3+ , and In 3+ ). Also, it is shown that PrBa 0.8 Ca 0.2 Co 1.9 Ga 0.10 O 5+δ (PBCCGa 0.10 ) exhibits improved oxygen reaction activity and hydration capability. Density functional theory calculations confirm that Ga doping provides the most favorable electronic structure. An R-PCEC with PBCCGa 0.10 achieves a peak power density of 2.21 W cm -2 and a current density of −4.64 A cm -2 at 1.3 V at 650 °C. Additionally, the PBCCGa 0.10 electrode performs good operational stability in FC mode (for about 100 h), EC mode (for about 100 h), and reversible cyclic testing (over 200 h) at 600 °C.

Cascade CO 2 Insertion in Carbanion Ionic Liquids Driven by Structure Rearrangement

The CO 2 chemisorption in state-of-the-art sorbents based on oxide/hydroxide/amine moieties is driven by strong chemical bonding formation in the carbonate/bicarbonate/carbamate products, which in turn leads to high energy input in sorbent regeneration. In addition, the CO 2 uptake capacity was limited by the active sites’ utilization efficiency, with each active site incorporating one CO 2 molecule or less. In this work, a new concept and generation of sorbent was developed to achieve cascade insertion of multiple CO 2 molecules by leveraging structure rearrangement as the driving force, leading to in situ generation of extra CO 2 -binding sites and significantly reduced energy input for CO 2 release. The designed ionic liquids (ILs) containing carbanions with conjugated and asymmetric structure, deprotonated (methylsulfonyl)acetonitrile ([MSA]) anion, allowed the cascade insertion of two CO 2 molecules via consecutive C–C and O–C bond formations. The proton transfer and structure rearrangement of the carboxylic acid intermediates played critical roles in stabilizing the first integrated CO 2 and generating extra electron-rich oxygen sites for the insertion of the second CO 2 . The structure variation and reaction pathway were confirmed by operando spectroscopy, magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), mass spectroscopy, and computational chemistry. The energy input in sorbent regeneration could be further reduced by harnessing the phase-changing behavior of the carbanion salts in ether solutions upon reacting with CO 2 , avoiding the energy consumption in heating the solvent. In conclusion, the fundamental insights obtained herein provide a promising approach to greatly improve the CO 2 sorption performance via sophisticated molecular-scale structural engineering of the sorbents.

The oleaginous yeast Cutaneotrichosporon oleaginosum modifies corn stover alkali lignin

The current paradigm in synthetic biology for lignin bioconversion platforms includes primarily bacteria and filamentous fungi. Yeast are notoriously understudied for their role in lignin degradation and utilization, despite their ubiquity in saprophytic microbial communities. A few publications report lignin-modifying yeasts, but investigations to date have relied on model aromatic compounds or lignin-containing substrates replete with other carbon sources. In this work, we use a suite of analytical tools to evaluate interactions between corn stover-extracted lignin and the oleaginous yeast Cutaneotrichosporon oleaginosum. Notably, 2D-NMR analysis showed a significant decrease in the H-lignin component as well as resinol (β-β) and phenylcoumaran (β-5) linkages. Using super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, we demonstrated that this yeast may uptake polymeric lignin and/or undertakes interactions at the cellular envelope. To explore mechanisms of lignin modification, transport, and aromatics catabolism, extensive secretomics and proteomics analyses were conducted. Compared to carbon-limited glucose and “No Carbon” controls, several putative laccases, quinone reductases, superoxide dismutases, and glyoxal/oxalate oxidases were upregulated in the lignin condition. Excitingly, two ferric reductases and an oxalate exchanger were only observed in the lignin condition. These results indicate that C. oleaginosum may perform extracellular quinone redox cycling to generate lignin-modifying reactive oxygen species. These findings enhance our understanding of yeast-lignin interactions and provide valuable insights for validation studies and metabolic engineering.

Formation of U(VI) peroxide nanoclusters from cascade reactions with a persulfate radical initiator

Radiolysis of water in high radiation fields generates a variety of reactive oxygen species that influence the chemical behavior and complexation of hexavalent uranium. This study investigates the behavior of interaction of a uranyl cation (UO 2 2+ (VI)) with a series of free radicals that are formed in situ via activation of the free radical initiator persulphate (S 2 O 8 2− ), which releases both SO 4 ˙ − and ˙OH species in the solution. Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) and Raman spectroscopy were used to evaluate the presence of the hydroperoxyl radical (HO 2 ˙) and superoxide radicals (O 2 ˙ − ) that are formed within the solution through radical cascade reactions. In addition, a uranyl peroxide cluster solid (NaU 24 ) was crystallized and characterized using single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), vibrational spectroscopy, and EPR spectroscopy. The presence of the hydroperoxyl radical (HO 2 ˙) and superoxide radicals (O 2 ˙ − ) was also observed in the solid-state compound, but spectroscopic evidence suggests that it was associated with the Na + network and not the cluster itself. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were also utilized to further confirm the radical species produced and determine the potential stabilization of radicals detected within the cluster and lattice.

The photoionization of methoxymethanol: Fingerprinting a reactive C 2 oxygenate in a complex reactive mixture

Methoxymethanol (CH 3 OCH 2 OH) is a reactive C 2 ether-alcohol that is formed by coupling events in both heterogeneous and homogeneous systems. It is found in complex reactive environments—for example those associated with catalytic reactors, combustion systems, and liquid-phase mixtures of oxygenates. Using tunable synchrotron-generated vacuum-ultraviolet photons between 10.0 and 11.5 eV, we report on the photoionization spectroscopy of methoxymethanol. We determine that the lowest-energy photoionization process is the dissociative ionization of methoxymethanol via H-atom loss to produce [C 2 H 5 O 2 ] + , a fragment cation with a mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) = 61.029. Here, we measure the appearance energy of this fragment ion to be 10.24 ± 0.05 eV. The parent cation is not detected in the energy range examined. To elucidate the origin of the m/z = 61.029 (C 2 H 5 O 2 ) fragment, we used automated electronic structure calculations to identify key stationary points on the cation potential energy surface and compute conformer-specific microcanonical rate coefficients for the important unimolecular processes. The calculated H-atom dissociation pathway results in a [C 2 H 5 O 2 ] + fragment appearance at 10.21 eV, in excellent agreement with experimental results.

Understanding spectral dependance of laser-induced damage precursors in dielectric materials (Abbreviated report_23-ERD-006)

High peak and average power laser systems are typically limited by the handling fluence of the optical components. In particular, the multilayer dielectric coatings are known to be much lower operational fluence than the more ideal bulk materials. In this project we proposed and succeeded in probing different established classes of damage prone precursors at different wavelengths to understand their fundamental laser damage response as a function of wavelength. This study helped to shed light on the fundamental physics of the non-linear precursors that govern laser damage phenomena for ns-regime pulsed laser damage. In this study, we utilized the onsite coating capabilities (VPL, IBS coating lab) to purposefully generate laser damage-prone precursors in hafnia-based coatings (both single and multi-layer coatings). Specifically, we engineered coatings with craze lines initiated by nodules, generated coatings with our xenon-based coating process to suppress nanobubble formation and generated hafnia coatings under controlled oxygen flow conditions to study hafnia sub-oxides and oxygen flow dependance. In these studies we found that craze lines are rife with precursors that are sensitive to ultra-violet light but not to infrared light; we found that the removal of nanobubbles helps with all wavelengths tested, but is most impactful for ultra-violet light; we also found that ultra-violet laser damage performance of hafnia is closely matched to oxygen flow rate, while the infrared performance may be slightly better at lower flow rates. During this LDRD we also successfully stood up a new laser damage testing capability, namely a wavelength agile damage test station to study the spectral response of known laser-induced damage precursors. This is a unique and important capability for Lawrence Livermore National Lab, allowing us to understand the spectral response of materials under high intensity irradiation and damage. This is a vital tool to understand non-linear optical response at wavelengths that we have previously been unable to test at.

Microwave-assisted catalytic gasification of mixed plastics and corn stover for low tar, hydrogen-rich syngas production

The challenge for efficient management of post-consumer plastic and biomass waste has grown over the past few decades due to their dramatic increases. In comparison to conventional gasification, microwave-assisted co-gasification of plastics and corn stover offers many benefits, including increased H 2 yield and gas components compared to unfavorable char/tar. Nonetheless, for future commercialization of the process and ease of product separation, further reduction of the undesirable tar is necessary, which can be achieved over the catalytic route. Here, in this work, we studied the catalytic effect of magnetite for microwave-assisted co-gasification of corn stover and plastic to make syngas with higher H 2 and lower tar selectivity over non-catalytic conditions. A 1:1:1 ratio of plastic-corn stover-magnetite was used to evaluate the reaction parameters such as temperature, space velocity, heating media, and catalytic cycles under gasification conditions. In comparison with the microwave non-catalytic route, a 100% increase in the total H 2 yield with 76% higher H 2 production efficiency (mmol/kWh) was achieved in the presence of the magnetite catalyst, while reducing the overall tar formation from 9% to 2%. When magnetite was reduced in situ during the reaction, it coupled with microwave and delivered oxygen radicals that cracked down plastic and corn stover intermediates generated from the synergistic effect under microwave heating. Soon after the oxygen transfer process initiated, magnetite reached its final oxidation state consisting of microwave-active Fe and Fe 3 C phases that continued coupling with microwaves along with the generated graphitic carbon to maintain the heat necessary to further reduce the generated tar and make additional gaseous products, as confirmed by XRD, Raman, and TGA analyses.

Solvent molecules form surface redox mediators in situ and cocatalyze O 2 reduction on Pd

Solvent molecules influence the reactions of molecular hydrogen and oxygen on palladium nanoparticles. Organic solvents activate to form reactive surface intermediates that mediate oxygen reduction through pathways distinct from reactions in pure water. Kinetic measurements and ab initio quantum chemical calculations indicate that methanol and water cocatalyze oxygen reduction by facilitating proton-electron transfer reactions. Methanol generates hydroxymethyl intermediates on palladium surfaces that efficiently transfer protons and electrons to oxygen to form hydrogen peroxide and formaldehyde. Formaldehyde subsequently oxidizes hydrogen to regenerate hydroxymethyl. Water, on the other hand, heterolytically oxidizes hydrogen to produce hydronium ions and electrons that reduce oxygen. These findings suggest that reactions of solvent molecules at solid-liquid interfaces can generate redox mediators in situ and provide opportunities to substantially increase rates and selectivities for catalytic reactions.
