Crystalline–amorphous core–shell-like heterostructures have attracted considerable attention in electrocatalysis due to their unique electronic and structural properties; however, tuning the surface composition of the amorphous shell rema...

Ru-based catalysts manifest unparalleled hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance, but the hydrolysis of Ru species and the accumulation of corresponding reaction intermediates greatly limit HER activity and stability. Herein, Ru nanoparticle as...

Catalysis requires extrapolations from computational models to the catalytic activity observed under practical operating conditions, especially for single-atom catalysts, to be made. Thus, it is necessary to understand the fundamental interactions at...

The need for sustainable and efficient water decontamination methods has led to the increasing use of redox enzymes such as glucose oxidase (GOx). GOx immobilization on textile supports provides a promising alternative for catalyzing pollutant degrad...

Pharmaceutical residues are emerging contaminants of growing concern due to their persistence and poor removal efficiency in conventional wastewater treatment plants. This study evaluates UVC photolysis with type C ultraviolet radiation (UVC) and UVC...

The growing diversity and prevalence of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in aquatic environments present significant risks to human health and ecosystems, necessitating the development of effective remediation strategies. Advanced oxidation pr...

This study explores the selective hydrogenation of cinnamaldehyde using a series of metal catalysts supported on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and conventional activated carbon (AC). Catalysts based on Pt, Pd, Rh, Ru, and Co were synthesized with cont...

Wastewater involving nitrogen-containing emerging contaminants is always accompanied by ammonia nitrogen. In this study, the 254 nm UV light activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) process was investigated based on its performance and mechanisms for the s...

Catalytic annulation reactions have emerged as a cornerstone in modern synthetic chemistry, enabling the efficient construction of complex cyclic and heterocyclic frameworks with high atom economy and precision [...]

(R)-3-aminobutyric acid is an important raw material for dolutegravir production, which is a key antiretroviral medicine for AIDS treatment. Currently, the industrial production of (R)-3-aminobutyric acid relies on chiral resolution methods, which ar...
