High-solubility thioether quinones

Substituted hydroquinones and quinones and methods of synthesizing such compounds are disclosed herein. The substituted hydroquinones have the formula: while the substituted quinones have the corresponding oxidized structure (1,4-benzoquinones). One, two, three, or all four of R1, R2, R3 and R4 comprise a thioether moiety and a sulfonate moiety, and wherein each R1, R2, R3 and R4 that does not comprise a thioether and a sulfonate moiety sulfonate moiety is independently a hydrogen, an alkyl or an electron withdrawing group. The substituted hydroquinones and quinones are soluble in water, stable in aqueous acid solutions, and have a high reduction potential in the oxidized form. Accordingly, they can be used as redox mediators in emerging technologies, such as in mediated fuel cells or organic-mediator flow batteries.

Support Effect and Surface Reconstruction in In 2 O 3 / m- ZrO 2 Catalyzed CO 2 Hydrogenation

Here, we investigate the chemical and structural dynamics at the interface of In 2 O 3 /m-ZrO 2 and their consequences on the CO 2 hydrogenation reaction (CO 2 HR) under reaction conditions. While acting to enrich CO 2 , monoclinic zirconia (m-ZrO 2 ) was also found to serve as a chemical and structural modifier of In 2 O 3 that directly governs the outcome of the CO 2 HR. These modifying effects include the following: (1) Under reaction conditions (above 623 K), partially reduced In 2 O 3 , i.e., InO x (0 < x < 1.5), was found to migrate in and out of the subsurface of m-ZrO 2 in a semireversible manner, where m-ZrO 2 accommodates and stabilizes InO x by serving as a reservoir. The decreased concentration of surface InO x under elevated temperatures coincides with significantly decreased selectivity toward methanol and a sharp increase of the reverse water–gas shift reaction. The reconstruction-induced variation of InO x concentration appears to be one of the most important factors contributing to the altered catalytic performance of CO 2 HR at different reaction conditions. (2) The strong interactions and reactions between m-ZrO 2 and In 2 O 3 result in the activation of a pool of In–O bonds at the In 2 O 3 /m-ZrO 2 interface to form oxygen vacancies. On the other hand, the high dispersity of In 2 O 3 nanostructures onto m-ZrO 2 prevents their over-reduction under catalytically relevant conditions (up to 673 K), when bare In 2 O 3 is unavoidably reduced into the metallic phase (In 0 ). The relationship between the extent of reduction of In 2 O 3 and catalytic performance (CO 2 conversion, CH 3 OH selectivity, or yield of CH 3 OH) suggests the presence of an optimum coverage of surface InO x and oxygen vacancies under reaction conditions. The conventional model that links catalytic performance solely to the coverage of oxygen vacancies appears invalid in the present case. In situ analysis also allows the observation of surface reaction intermediates and their interconversions, including the reduction of CO 3 * into formate, a precursor for the formation of methanol and CO. The combinative ex situ and in situ study sheds light on the reaction mechanism of the CO 2 HR on In 2 O 3 /m-ZrO 2 -based catalysts. Our findings on the large-scale surface reconstructions, support effect, and the reaction mechanism of In 2 O 3 /m-ZrO 2 for CO 2 HR may apply to other related metal oxide catalyzed CO 2 reduction reactions.

Innovative techniques for the production of energetic radicals for lunar processing including cold plasma processing of local planetary ores

Hydrogen reduction of ilmenite has been studied by a number of investigators as a potential means for recovery of oxygen from lunar soil. Interest in this process has always rested with the simplicity of the flow diagram and the utilization of established technology. Effective utilization of hydrogen in the reduction process at temperatures of 1200 C and below has always been disappointing and, as such, has led other investigators to focus attention on other systems. Effective utilization of hydrogen in the reduction of ilmenite can be significantly enhanced in the presence of a non-equilibrium hydrogen plasma. Ilmenite at solid specimen temperatures of 600 C to 970 C were reacted in a hydrogen plasma. Those experiments revealed that hydrogen utilization can be significantly enhanced. At a specimen temperature of 850 C the fraction of H2 reacted was 24 percent compared to the 7 percent theoretical limit calculated with thermodynamic theory for the same temperature. An added advantage for a hydrogen plasma involves further reduction of TiO2. Reduction of the iron oxide in ilmenite yields TiO2 and metallic iron as by products. Titanium forms a number of oxides including TiO, Ti2O3, Ti3O5 and the Magneli oxides (Ti4O7 to Ti50O99). In conventional processing of ilmenite with hydrogen it is possible to reduce TiO2 to Ti7O13 within approximately an hour, but with poor utilization of hydrogen on the order of one mole of H2 per thousand. In the cold or non-equilibrium plasma TiO2 can be rapidly reduced to Ti2O3 with hydrogen utilization exceeding 10 percent. Based on design considerations of the plasma reactor greater utilization of the hydrogen in the reduction of TiO2 is possible.

Oxidation State and Surface Reconstruction of Cu under CO 2 Reduction Conditions from In Situ X-ray Characterization

The electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) using Cu-based catalysts holds great potential for producing valuable multi-carbon products from renewable energy. However, the chemical and structural state of Cu catalyst surfaces during the CO 2 RR remains a matter of debate. In this paper, we show the structural evolution of the near-surface region of polycrystalline Cu electrodes under in situ conditions through a combination of grazing incidence X-ray absorption spectroscopy (GIXAS) and X-ray diffraction (GIXRD). The in situ GIXAS reveals that the surface oxide layer is fully reduced to metallic Cu before the onset potential for CO 2 RR, and the catalyst maintains the metallic state across the potentials relevant to the CO 2 RR. We also find a preferential surface reconstruction of the polycrystalline Cu surface toward (100) facets in the presence of CO 2 . Quantitative analysis of the reconstruction profiles reveals that the degree of reconstruction increases with increasingly negative applied potentials, and it persists when the applied potential returns to more positive values. These findings show that the surface of Cu electrocatalysts is dynamic during the CO 2 RR, and emphasize the importance of in situ characterization to understand the surface structure and its role in electrocatalysis.

Reduction Thermodynamics of Sr 1– x Ce x MnO 3 and Ce x Sr 2– x MnO 4 Perovskites for Solar Thermochemical Hydrogen Production

Herein, the compositional families Sr 1–x Ce x MnO 3 (SCMX, X = 100x, x = 0.10, 0.20, and 0.30) and Ce x Sr 2–x MnO 4 (CSMX, X = 100x, x = 0.10, 0.20, and 0.30) are studied to determine the effects of perovskite structure and cerium content on thermal reduction thermodynamics and the resulting impact on solar thermochemical hydrogen production (STCH). Relying on thermogravimetric results from oxygen nonstoichiometry experiments, fits for various thermodynamic quantities are produced, including defect-reaction specific enthalpy (Δ H) and entropy (Δ S ), as well as the δ-dependent standard partial molar enthalpy, Δh¯$^{°}_{Ο}$, and entropy Δs¯$^{°}_{Ο}$, of oxygen as a function of composition within these two perovskite families. Here, the results of this thermodynamic study are also discussed in the context of structure and cerium dopant level. Experimental hydrogen production results show that the SCM family produces slightly larger amounts of hydrogen per mole of oxide compared with the CSM family under similar reduction and oxidation temperature conditions, however, a direct correlation between structure, cerium content, and water-splitting capacity could not be discerned.

Unitary plate electrode

The unitary electrode (10) comprises a porous sheet (12) of fiberglass the strands (14) of which contain a coating (16) of conductive tin oxide. The lower portion of the sheet contains a layer (18) of resin and the upper layer (20) contains lead dioxide forming a positive active electrode on an electrolyte-impervious layer. The strands (14) form a continuous conduction path through both layers (16, 18). Tin oxide is prevented from reduction by coating the surface of the plate facing the negative electrode with a conductive, impervious layer resistant to reduction such as a thin film (130) of lead or graphite filled resin adhered to the plate with a layer (31) of conductive adhesive. The plate (10) can be formed by casting a molten resin from kettle (60) onto a sheet of glass wool (56) overlying a sheet of lead foil and then applying positive active paste from hopper (64) into the upper layer (68). The plate can also be formed by passing an assembly of a sheet ( 80) of resin, a sheet (86) of sintered glass and a sheet (90) of lead between the nip (92) of heated rollers (93, 95) and then filling lead oxide into the pores (116) of the upper layer (118).

First-Row Transition Metal Antimonates for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction

The development of inexpensive and abundant catalysts with high activity, selectivity, and stability for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is imperative for the widespread implementation of fuel cell devices. Herein, we present a combined theoretical–experimental approach to discover and design first-row transition metal antimonates as excellent electrocatalytic materials for the ORR. Theoretically, we identify first-row transition metal antimonates–MSb 2 O 6 , where M = Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni–as nonprecious metal catalysts with good oxygen binding energetics, conductivity, thermodynamic phase stability, and aqueous stability. Among the considered antimonates, MnSb 2 O 6 shows the highest theoretical ORR activity based on the 4e – ORR kinetic volcano. Experimentally, nanoparticulate transition metal antimonate catalysts are found to have a minimum of a 2.5-fold enhancement in intrinsic mass activity (on transition metal mass basis) relative to the corresponding transition metal oxide at 0.7 V vs RHE in 0.1 M KOH. MnSb 2 O 6 is the most active catalyst under these conditions, with a 3.5-fold enhancement on a per Mn mass activity basis and 25-fold enhancement on a surface area basis over its antimony-free counterpart. Electrocatalytic and material stability are demonstrated over a 5 h chronopotentiometry experiment in the stability window identified by theoretical Pourbaix analysis. Furthermore, this study further highlights the stable and electrically conductive antimonate structure as a framework to tune the activity and selectivity of nonprecious metal oxide active sites for ORR catalysis.

Porous cobalt spheres for high temperature gradient magnetically assisted fluidized beds

Porous metallic cobalt spheres have been prepared as high temperature capable media for employment in gradient magnetically assisted fluidization and filtration technologies. Cobalt impregnated alginate beads are first formed by extrusion of an aqueous suspension of Co3O4 into a Co(II) chloride solution. The organic polymer is thermally decomposed yielding cobalt oxide spheres, followed by reduction to the metallic state, and densification. Cobalt beads have been produced with porosities ranging between 10 and 50%, depending upon sintering conditions. The product media have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen adsorption porosimetry, and vibrating sample magnetometry. c2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Mechanistic Studies of Continuous Partial Methane Oxidation on Cu−Zeolites Using Kinetic and Spectroscopic Methods

Abstract Over the past few decades, a significant amount of research effort has focused on investigating the active site requirements and reaction mechanisms for partial methane oxidation (PMO) to methanol over copper–exchanged zeolites during stoichiometric and stepwise chemical looping routes. More recently, research efforts have expanded to include investigating the PMO reaction in a continuous catalytic regime, primarily focusing on determining the influence of catalyst composition on Cu speciation and structure and, in turn, on PMO rate and selectivity. The structures of candidate Cu active sites are commonly studied using a combination of ex situ and in situ spectroscopic approaches. In this perspective, we critically examine the prior literature on catalytic PMO over Cu–zeolites to identify key knowledge gaps that remain in our understanding as motivation for future research efforts. We identify opportunities for future research to address these gaps by adapting analogous interrogation techniques that have been successfully used to elucidate the active site requirements and mechanistic details of another catalytic redox reaction cycle on Cu–zeolites, the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxides (NO x ).

Universal Approach to Fabricating Graphene-Supported Single-Atom Catalysts from Doped ZnO Solid Solutions

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) have attracted widespread interest for many catalytic applications because of their distinguishing properties. However, general and scalable synthesis of efficient SACs remains significantly challenging, which limits their applications. Here we report an efficient and universal approach to fabricating a series of high-content metal atoms anchored into hollow nitrogen-doped graphene frameworks (M-N-Grs; M represents Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, etc.) at gram-scale. The highly compatible doped ZnO templates, acting as the dispersants of targeted metal heteroatoms, can react with the incoming gaseous organic ligands to form doped metal-organic framework thin shells, whose composition determines the heteroatom species and contents in M-N-Grs. We achieved over 1.2 atom % (5.85 wt %) metal loading content, superior oxygen reduction activity over commercial Pt/C catalyst, and a very high diffusion-limiting current (6.82 mA cm -2 ). Both experimental analyses and theoretical calculations reveal the oxygen reduction activity sequence of M-N-Grs. Additionally, the superior performance in Fe-N-Gr is mainly attributed to its unique electron structure, rich exposed active sites, and robust hollow framework: This synthesis strategy will stimulate the rapid development of SACs for diverse energy-related fields.

Single-atom automobile exhaust catalysts

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with isolated metal centers are attracting great research interest because of their maximized metal utilization rates and unique structures. In the last decade, significant efforts have been made to design highly efficient and costeffective SACs with applications in automobile exhaust aftertreatment. SACs have not only demonstrated their high potential for improving the catalytic performance of current automobile exhaust catalysts but also provided an ideal platform for understanding the origins of catalyst reactivity. In this review, we summarize the general strategies for promoting the reactivity of metal SACs while maintaining their thermal stability during exhaust-abatement-related reactions. Highlights are provided on well-performed SACs for CO oxidation, unburnt hydrocarbon (HC) oxidation, and the selective catalytic reduction of NOx. The reaction mechanism and structure– performance relationship of SAC during these reactions are also discussed. Finally, perspectives are given on the trending research fields for designing more efficient single-atom automobile exhaust catalysts in the future.

Surface Oxidation Behavior of FeNi-based Metal Amorphous Nanocomposite (MANC) Alloys for High-Speed Motor Applications

New interest in high performance soft magnetic materials (SMMs) have been fueled by the need to lower losses at higher operating frequencies while maintaining high flux density and tunable permeability in electrical motors, transformer, and generator applications. Conventional SMMs like electrical steels and Fe-based metal amorphous nanocomposite (MANC) alloys are dominated by eddy current losses at high frequencies. Recent breakthrough in high-performance FeNi MANC have shown promise in reducing eddy current losses as compared to electrical steels. Their intrinsic adherent native surface oxide layer provides sufficient electrical insulation to reduce interlaminate eddy current losses. However, notwithstanding advances in MANCs, there exists a gap in literature on investigations of the surface oxide layer responsible for significant reduction of interlaminate eddy current losses in magnetic cores. This work presents a detailed characterization of the surface oxide, oxidation behavior, and relationship between oxide thickness and resistivity of a new FeNi MANC alloy (Fe70Ni30)80Nb4B14Si2.

Harnessing Photoelectrochemistry for Wastewater Nitrate Treatment Coupled with Resource Recovery

Wastewater is a misplaced resource well suited to recover nutrients, value-added chemicals, energy, and clean water. A photoelectrochemical device is proposed to transform wastewater nitrates to ammonia and nitrous oxide, coupled with water oxidation. Numerical models were developed to quantify the dependence of process efficiencies and nitrogen-removal rates on light absorber band gaps, electrocatalytic kinetic parameters, competing oxygen reduction and hydrogen evolution reactions, and the reacting nitrate species concentrations that affect the mass-transfer limited current densities. With a single light-absorber and state-of-the-art catalysts, optimal solar-to-chemical efficiencies of 7% and 10% and nitrogen-removal rates of 260 and 395 gN m -2 day -1 are predicted for nitrate reduction to ammonia and nitrous oxide, respectively. The influence of competing reactions on the performance depends on the nitrate concentration and band gap of the light absorber modeled. Oxygen reduction is more dominant than hydrogen evolution to compete with the nitrate reduction reaction, but it is mass-transfer limited. Even with kinetic parameters that enhanced the driving forces for the competing reactions, the performance is only minimally affected by these reactions for optimally selected band gaps and nitrate concentrations larger than 100 mM. Here, theoretically predicted peak nitrogen removal rates and specific energy intensities are competitive with reported estimates for electrochemical and Sharon-Anammox processes for ammonia recovery and nitrogen removal, respectively. This result, together with the added benefit of harnessing sunlight to produce value-added products, indicates promise in the photoelectrochemical approach as a tertiary pathway to recover nutrients and energy from wastewater nitrates.

Synergizing Fe 2 O 3 Nanoparticles on Single Atom Fe‐N‐C for Nitrate Reduction to Ammonia at Industrial Current Densities

The electrochemical reduction of nitrates (NO 3 − ) enables a pathway for the carbon neutral synthesis of ammonia (NH 3 ), via the nitrate reduction reaction (NO 3 RR), which has been demonstrated at high selectivity. However, to make NH 3 synthesis cost-competitive with current technologies, high NH 3 partial current densities (j NH3 ) must be achieved to reduce the levelized cost of NH 3 . Here, the high NO 3 RR activity of Fe-based materials is leveraged to synthesize a novel active particle-active support system with Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles supported on atomically dispersed Fe–N–C. The optimized 3×Fe 2 O 3 /Fe–N–C catalyst demonstrates an ultrahigh NO 3 RR activity, reaching a maximum j NH3 of 1.95 A cm −2 at a Faradaic efficiency (FE) for NH 3 of 100% and an NH 3 yield rate over 9 mmol hr −1 cm −2 . Operando XANES and post-mortem XPS reveal the importance of a pre-reduction activation step, reducing the surface Fe 2 O 3 (Fe 3+ ) to highly active Fe 0 sites, which are maintained during electrolysis. Durability studies demonstrate the robustness of both the Fe 2 O 3 particles and Fe–N x sites at highly cathodic potentials, maintaining a current of −1.3 A cm −2 over 24 hours. This work exhibits an effective and durable active particle-active support system enhancing the performance of the NO 3 RR, enabling industrially relevant current densities and near 100% selectivity.

Activation of Transition Metal (Fe, Co and Ni)-Oxide Nanoclusters by Nitrogen Defects in Carbon Nanotube for Selective CO 2 Reduction Reaction

The electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR), which can produce value-added chemical feedstocks, is a proton-coupled-electron process with sluggish kinetics. Thus, highly efficient, cheap catalysts are urgently required. Transition metal oxides such as CoO x , FeO x , and NiO x are low-cost, low toxicity, and abundant materials for a wide range of electrochemical reactions, but are almost inert for CO 2 RR. Here, we report for the first time that nitrogen doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNT) have a surprising activation effect on the activity and selectivity of transition metal-oxide (MO x where M = Fe, Ni, and Co) nanoclusters for CO 2 RR. MO x supported on N-CNT, MOx/N-CNT, achieves a CO yield of 2.6–2.8 mmol cm -2 min -1 at an overpotential of -0.55V, which is two orders of magnitude higher than MO x supported on acid treated CNTs (MOx/O-CNT) and four times higher than pristine N-CNT. The faraday efficiency for electrochemical CO 2 -to-CO conversion is as high as 90.3% at overpotential of 0.44V. Both in-situ XAS measurements and DFT calculations disclose that MO x nanoclusters can be hydrated in CO 2 saturated KHCO 3 , and the N defects of N-CNT effectively stabilize these metal hydroxyl species under carbon dioxide reduction reaction conditions, which can split the water molecules and provide local protons to inhibit the poisoning of active sites under carbon dioxide reduction reaction conditions.

Tuning the Coordination Environment of Rh Single Atoms on Highly Dispersed Reducible Oxides for Enhanced Reverse Water-Gas Shift Performance

Controlling the dynamic mobility of catalyst surface active sites and their interactions with the surrounding environment is critical in generating active surfaces that directly influence the catalytic activity and selectivity. Here, we report a strategy for tailoring the dispersion and electronic environment of single atom Rh catalysts by decorating the alumina support with highly dispersed (HD) cerium and molybdenum oxides. The resulting catalysts exhibit markedly different behavior in the Reverse Water Gas Shift (RWGS) reaction. In particular, Rh/MoOx(HD)/Al2O3 maintains atomically dispersed Rh even at elevated temperatures (up to 400 °C), achieving CO selectivity of up to 100% and resists sintering via the formation of a newly developed structure featuring Rh single atoms embedded in MoOx clusters. In situ spectroscopy and microscopy analyses confirm the stabilization of Rh and the dynamic evolution of Rh–Mo coordination under reaction conditions. Our findings highlight the power of support modification in steering active site structure and activity, offering a pathway toward enhanced and tunable single atom catalysts for CO2 valorization.

Examining the effects of chemical cleaning, leaching, and partial dissolution on zinc and cadmium isotope fractionation in marine carbonates

The application of zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) isotopes as palaeo-proxies in carbonate sediment is rapidly expanding due to their potential for tracing changes in biological productivity in the modern and past oceans. However, there are limited investigations into the chemical cleaning methods required to produce the most consistent and accurate data for these novel isotope systems. This could impact their use as palaeo-proxies to reconstruct ocean-atmosphere-climate interactions throughout Earth's history. To address this concern and expand the utility of the Zn and Cd stable isotope systems as palaeo-productivity tracers, the performance of two standard chemical cleaning protocols for acquiring robust and reliable Zn and Cd isotope datasets were assessed. These include (i) the Cd-cleaning method that uses a reductive step to selectively leach contaminating secondary iron (Fe)-manganese (Mn) (oxyhydr)oxide coatings from the carbonate surface, and an oxidative step that is used to remove post-depositional organic matter and sulphide precipitates; and (ii) the magnesium/calcium cleaning protocol that includes an oxidative step only, leaving secondary Fesingle bondMn (oxyhydr)oxide coatings largely intact. Well-preserved Holocene-, and Mesozoic-aged carbonate sediments were used to test the reliability of these two chemical cleaning methods. The Holocene samples comprised not only aliquots of bulk sediment, but also individual species of planktic and benthic foraminifera. Our results show that the best practice chemical cleaning method for retrieving consistent and accurate Zn and Cd isotope, and Zn/Ca and Cd/Ca datasets for carbonate sediments, requires both reductive and oxidative cleaning following the Cd-cleaning method. This differs from most methodological approaches applied to date that remove the reductive step from the chemical cleaning protocol and apply an oxidative step only, or no chemical cleaning at all. Inclusion of the reductive step in the chemical cleaning method typically shifts δ 66 Zn by ~0.1‰ lower and δ 114 Cd by 0.3‰ higher in the solid phase, while Zn/Ca and Cd/Ca typically decrease 2-fold. The benthic foraminifera, C. wuellerstorfi, that live in ocean bottom waters where the seawater Zn and Cd isotope composition is homogeneous display evidence of Zn and Cd isotope fractionation between seawater and carbonate on the order of 0.08 ± 0.08‰ (2SE, n = 4) and -0.25 ± 0.13‰ (2SE, n = 4), respectively, in agreement with experimental constraints. Furthermore, evidence of Zn isotope fractionation effects are recorded in a naturally-dissolved carbonate sediment, together with laboratory-controlled carbonate dissolution experiments. Based on these results, we recommend the Cd-cleaning method and the application of Zn and Cd isotope fractionation factors to accurately reconstruct past seawater Zn and Cd isotope compositions from carbonate sediments.
