Pd-containing materials have been proven to be effective catalysts, while balancing the activity-selectivity trade-off remains a significant challenge. Here we report the fabrication of Pd single atoms from the conversion of metal–organic polyhedra (MOPs) for the first time. The MOP (M6L4), constructed from Pd salt and N-containing ligand, can interact with the graphene support via π-electron coupling, leading to well dispersion of MOP molecules. In subsequent thermal treatment, Pd is anchored by N-doped graphene formed in situ, producing single Pd atoms (denoted as Pd1/G). The obtained Pd1/G catalyst exhibits excellent activity (100% conversion) and styrene selectivity (94%) in the semi-hydrogenation of phenylacetylene under mild conditions (298 K, 1 bar H2). Such performance is much superior to the counterpart catalyst Pd/G with Pd nanoparticles and the commercial Lindlar catalyst and is among the best of the reported catalysts for phenylacetylene semi-hydrogenation.","PeriodicalId":120,"journal":{"name":"AIChE Journal","volume":"71 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143940246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the limited catalytic activity and cycling stability of catalysts under high–temperature alkaline conditions hinder their industrial application. Herein, zirconium hydrogenphosphate (ZrHP) catalysts, featuring abundant acidic sites, were first utilized for amine solution regeneration. By leveraging its proton donation and acceptance mechanism, efficient monoethanolamine solution regeneration was achieved. The ZrHP–4 catalyst demonstrated a 526% increase in the instantaneous CO2 desorption rate compared to the non–catalytic test, reducing the relative heat duty by 48%. Moreover, ZrHP–4 exhibited remarkable stability over 10 cycles without requiring regeneration. Density functional theory calculations revealed that ZrHP promotes CO2 desorption by elongating the C—N bond of carbamate and lowering the proton transfer energy barrier. Therefore, this study offers novel insights into the design and mechanistic understanding of efficient and stable catalysts for amine solution regeneration.","PeriodicalId":120,"journal":{"name":"AIChE Journal","volume":"71 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143940247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Mo-C bonds of the MoOx-C interface regulate the electronic structure of MoOx and promote the formation of oxygen vacancies. The catalyst evaluation and reaction kinetics of the xMoOx-C@AOH demonstrate excellent performance (CO2 conversion 15.8% at 450°C) and superior selectivity toward CO (100%), without obvious deactivation within 100 h. The high activity of xMoOx-C@AOH is related to two active sites: Mo sites of Mo-C are favorable for H2 adsorption/dissociation; oxygen vacancies of MoOx promote the adsorption/dissociation of CO2. Two RWGS mechanisms are confirmed by DRIFTs: formate and direct CO2 dissociation. This strategy of constructing the interface by DBD provides valuable insights to prepare high-performance catalysts for RWGS.","PeriodicalId":120,"journal":{"name":"AIChE Journal","volume":"71 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143940248","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Developing an efficient method to convert polyethylene (PE)—the most abundant plastic—into BTX is therefore critical for advancing the circular economy and achieving carbon neutrality. Here, we present a single-step, hydrogen-free, noble-metal-free catalytic process that converts waste PE into BTX with yields nearing 59%, using an unreduced Ni-ZSM-5 catalyst, outperforming previously reported noble-metal or Ni-based zeolite catalysts. The conversion of PE and long-chain model compounds over Ni-ZSM-5 indicates a β-scission pathway, as evidenced by the prominent formation of isobutene—an established β-scission indicator. Upon Ni addition, the apparent activation energy for β-scission decreases significantly, suggesting that Ni-induced Lewis acidity promotes carbenium ion formation via hydride abstraction, the key step initiating β-scission. This accelerates PE breakdown into smaller intermediates, which easily diffuse into ZSM-5 micropores for further aromatization.","PeriodicalId":120,"journal":{"name":"AIChE Journal","volume":"71 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143930683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effects of subsurface Ce dopants on photocatalysis were investigated deeply via a series of characterizations and density functional theory calculations. Especially, subsurface Ce facilitates the migration of photogenerated electrons and enhances the adsorption of nitrobenzene. Ce-induced oxygen vacancies promote the formation of more frustrated Lewis acid–base pairs (Mo/O), facilitating the adsorption of benzyl alcohol. It establishes efficient pathways for the transfer of carriers to the reactants. Thus, the typical Ce (0.04 mmol)-doped Bi2MoO6 exhibited a nitrobenzene conversion of 94.5% and a secondary amine selectivity of 99.1%.

Previous studies mainly focus on the interfacial molecule transport; however, the central molecule transport, equally crucial, has been disregarded. Herein, vertically aligned vermiculite-based (Vr-based) membranes with long-range nanochannels are engineered to ensure a stable flow. Meanwhile, the channel surfaces are functionalized (–CH3, –NH2, and –CF3 groups) to tune the interaction with interfacial molecules, thus affecting the intermolecular interaction of central molecules. We demonstrate that strong channel-molecule interaction between polar walls and protonic solvents can impede the formation of hydrogen-bond networks in central molecules, thus reducing the central intermolecular interaction and enabling fast transport. For instance, the Vr-CF3 membrane displays a 69% improvement in water permeance in comparison to the Vr-CH3 membrane, achieving 13.0 LMH bar−1. Nevertheless, nonpolar walls with weak channel-molecule interaction show uninfluenced intermolecular interaction, giving comparable transport ability for both protonic and non-protonic solvents.","PeriodicalId":120,"journal":{"name":"AIChE Journal","volume":"71 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143920937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, we developed a dual cofactor-driven biocatalytic system (DuCoCat) that utilizes both intracellular NAD(H) and NADP(H). Initially, the cofactor dependence of a glutamate dehydrogenase (GluDH) was engineered to exhibit dual cofactor preference, achieving a 163.3-fold increase in cofactor-preference factor. This engineered GluDH was coupled with a dual cofactor-dependent glucose dehydrogenase to form a DuCoCat system. To improve the efficiency of the DuCoCat system, we developed a kinetic model for the DuCoCat system and applied metabolic engineering to enhance intracellular cofactor concentrations, thereby optimizing the DuCoCat-driven biocatalytic process. This approach led to efficient and cost-effective amino acid synthesis with high space–time yield. Scale-up experiments were conducted for the synthesis of L-phosphinothricin, and an economic analysis based on optimized scale-up data demonstrated the process's commercial viability.","PeriodicalId":120,"journal":{"name":"AIChE Journal","volume":"71 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143920947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
