In recent years, green hydrogen production via water electrolysis driven by renewable energy sources has garnered increasingly significant attention. Among the various water electrolysis technologies, proton-exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMW...

Catalysis plays a key role in advancing sustainable technologies for energy conversion and environmental remediation [...]

In this study, copper–carbon material composites, Cu/CM (where CM is reduced graphene oxide (rGO), graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄), their mixture, and N-doped reduced graphene oxide (N-rGO)), were prepared using a simple method of chemical re...

Alkaline water electrolysis remains one of the leading and most mature technologies for large-scale hydrogen production. Its advantages stem from the use of inexpensive, earth-abundant materials and well-established industrial deployment, yet the tec...

Pt-rare earth metal (Pt-RE) alloys are considered to be one of the most promising electrocatalysts for producing oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs) due to their compressively strained Pt overlayer and their exceptional negative-alloy formation energie...

1,4-Dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs) are privileged heterocycles with broad relevance in medicinal chemistry and redox-related applications. However, conventional Hantzsch syntheses typically require prolonged thermal heating and often suffer from limited...

In this explorative work, molybdenum trioxide (MoO₃) and representative doped MoO₃ materials, i.e., Cu-doped MoO₃ (2% Cu, “Cu-MoO₃”) and H-doped MoO₃ (H_0.31MoO₃, “H-MoO₃”), have been tested for the first time as photocatalysts...

The synthesis, in particular the industrial production, of pharmaceuticals requires a broad arsenal of synthetic reactions capable of selectively forming specific structural motifs and assembling smaller building blocks into complex molecules. The Ch...

A series of silica-supported, nitrogen-doped carbon-encapsulated cobalt–nickel alloy catalysts (Co_xNi_y@NC/SiO₂) was successfully synthesized and systematically evaluated for the liquid-phase hydrogenation of 1-nitronaphthalene to 1-naphthylamin...

Constructed wetlands (CWs) are signified as green, self-sustaining systems for wastewater treatment. To date, their conventional designs struggle with slow kinetics and poor removal of refractory pollutants. This review redefines CWs as photo-reactiv...
