As an environmentally friendly technology, enzymatic degradation of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has great application potential. Mono (hydroxyethyl) terephthalate (MHET), an intermediate product of PET degradation, accumulates during the d...

An ionic heterogenized catalyst system for Anelli oxidation has been developed using potassium 4-sulfonato-oxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-yloxyl (TEMPO-4-sulfate) and anion exchange beads as support material. The catalytic oxidation of benzyl al...

The non-oxidative dehydrogenation of ethanol into acetaldehyde is one of the efficient solutions for biomass upgrading. In this work, a series of copper catalysts supported on MgO with different Cu loadings ranging from 2.5% to 20% were prepared by a...

A diatomite-modified Fe₂O₃ (Fe₂O₃/Dia) catalyst was prepared to catalyze the ozonation degradation of sulfachloropyridazine sodium (SPDZ). The chemical oxygen demand (COD) was used as the index of pollutant degradation. The catalytic ozonation experi...

A two-step hydrothermal method was used to first obtain a SrTiO₃/TiO₂ composite then to dope the composite with Bi, Ni and Bi/Ni. Morphology, crystalline structures, surface valances and optical features of SrTiO₃/TiO₂ and Bi-, Ni-, Bi/Ni-doped SrTiO...

Intermetallic compounds (IMCs) have attracted significant attention in recent years due to their unique properties and potential applications in various fields, particularly in catalysis. This review aims to provide an in-depth understanding of IMCs,...

A density functional theory method was employed to conduct theoretical calculations on the pyrolysis reaction pathways of lignin monomer model compounds with an aldehyde or carboxyl group under the catalytic effect of alkali metal ions Na⁺ and K⁺, ex...

The increasing number of uncharacterized proteins in the CAZy database highlights the importance of their functional characterization. Therefore, the substrate and positional specificity of 34 α-L-arabinofuranosidases classified into GH43, GH51...

Catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction (NO_X SCR) of nitrogen oxides can be obtained from sludge in industrial waste treatment, and, due to the complex composition of sludge, NO_X SCR shows various SCR efficiencies. In the current work, an SCR...

Nickel hydroxide is a potentially cheap non-precious metal catalytic material for alkaline hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs). Herein, a nickel form (NF)-based nitrogen-modified nickel hydroxide (N-Ni(OH)₂/NF) with interlaced two-dimensional (2D) na...
