Although an interface modification strategy has been applied to optimize the stability of Zn metal anodes and has shown some improvement, they are still far from meeting the requirements for practical applications. There is a lack of consideration for designing a multifunctional solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) which modifies the solvation/desolvation structure of Zn ion at the interface of Zn metal anodes. Herein, we constructed an amphiphilic SEI with hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties: N, S dual-doped graphene quantum dots (GQDs). The N, S dual-doped GQDs have been synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal approach and were utilized for Zn anode surface modification. When regulating the solvation structure of the Zn ion interface by N, S dual-doped GQDs, it also promotes its desolvation kinetics, optimizes the interfacial behavior of Zn ion deposition to prohibit Zn dendrite growth, and suppresses side reactions in the Zn anode surface. The Zn|Zn symmetric cell has achieved a long cycle life of more than 800 h at 5 mA cm−2. The Zn|V2O5 battery has achieved an excellent performance of more than 80% capacity retention after 1400 cycles at 1 A g−1. This provides another novel and cost-effective path for the SEI design of aqueous Zn-ion batteries.","PeriodicalId":33706,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Energy","volume":"7 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cey2.694","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its energy efficiency is significantly constrained by the kinetically slow oxygen evolution reaction (OER) at the anode, which accounts for about 90% of the electrical energy consumption in the water-splitting process. A new strategy is urgently needed to reduce its energy consumption. In recent years, electrochemical oxidation of small molecules has been considered for replacement of OER for efficient H2 production, due to its benign operational conditions, low theoretical thermodynamic potential, high conversion efficiency and selectivity, and environmental sustainability. Hybrid electrolysis systems, by integrating cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction with anodic oxidation of small molecules, have been introduced, which can generate high-purity H2 and produce value-added products or pollutant degradation. In this review, we highlight the recent advancements and significant milestones achieved in hybrid water electrolysis systems. The focus is on non-noble metal electrocatalysts, reaction mechanisms, and the construction of electrolyzers. Additionally, we present the prevailing challenges and future perspectives pertinent to the evolution of this burgeoning technology.","PeriodicalId":33706,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Energy","volume":"7 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cey2.679","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the high specific surface area and one-dimensional long-range continuous structure of the nanofiber, ion-charged groups can be induced to form long-range continuous ion transfer channels in the nanofiber composite membrane, significantly increasing the ion conductivity of the membrane. This review stands apart from previous endeavors by offering a comprehensive overview of the strategies employed over the past decade in utilizing both electrospun and natural nanofibers as key components of proton exchange membranes and anion exchange membranes for fuel cells. Electrospun nanofibers are categorized based on their material properties into two primary groups: (1) ionomer nanofibers, inherently endowed with the ability to conduct H+ (such as perfluorosulfonic acid or sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone)) or OH− (e.g., FAA-3), and (2) nonionic polymer nanofibers, comprising inert polymers like polyvinylidene difluoride, polytetrafluoroethylene, and polyacrylonitrile. Notably, the latter often necessitates surface modifications to impart ion transport channels, given their inherent proton inertness. Furthermore, this review delves into the recent progress made with three natural nanofibers derived from biodegradable cellulose—cellulose nanocrystals, cellulose nanofibers, and bacterial nanofibers—as crucial elements in polyelectrolyte membranes. The effect of the physical structure of such nanofibers on polyelectrolyte membrane properties is also briefly discussed. Lastly, the review emphasizes the challenges and outlines potential solutions for future research in the field of nanofiber-based polyelectrolyte membranes, aiming to propel the development of high-performance polymer electrolyte fuel cells.","PeriodicalId":33706,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Energy","volume":"7 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cey2.677","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143884070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, inspired by human intestinal villi structure, we design and fabricate a novel intestinal villi-like nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes solar steam generator (N-CNTs SSG) consisting of three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical carbon nanotube matrices for ultrahigh solar evaporation efficiency. The 3D matrices with radial direction nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube clusters achieve ultrahigh surface area, photothermal efficiency, and hydrophilicity, which significantly intensifies the whole interfacial solar evaporation process. The new solar evaporation efficiency reaches as high as 96.8%. Furthermore, our ab initio molecular dynamics simulation reveals that N-doped carbon nanotubes exhibit a greater number of electronic states in close proximity to the Fermi level when compared to pristine carbon nanotubes. The outstanding absorptivity in the full solar spectrum and high solar altitude angles of the 3D hierarchical carbon nanotube matrices offer great potential to enable ultrahigh photothermal conversion under all-day and all-season circumstances.","PeriodicalId":33706,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Energy","volume":"7 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cey2.655","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749882","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the commonly utilized precursors, such as polyacrylonitrile and pitch, exhibit a lack of environmental sustainability, and their costs are heavily reliant on fluctuating petroleum prices. To meet the substantial market demand for CFs, significant efforts have been made to develop cost-effective and sustainable CFs derived from biomass. Lignin, the most abundant polyphenolic compound in nature, is emerging as a promising precursor which is well-suited for the production of CFs due to its renewable nature, low cost, high carbon content, and aromatic structures. Nevertheless, the majority of lignin raw materials are currently derived from pulping and biorefining industrial by-products, which are diverse and heterogeneous in nature, restricting the industrialization of lignin-derived CFs. This review classifies fossil-derived and biomass-derived CFs, starting from the sources and chemical structures of raw lignin, and outlines the preparation methods linked to the performance of lignin-derived CFs. A comprehensive discussion is presented on the relationship between the structural characteristics of lignin, spinning preparation, and structure-morphology-property of lignin-derived CFs. Additionally, the potential applications of these materials in various domains, including energy, catalysis, composites, and other advanced products, are also described with the objective of spotlighting the unique merits of lignin. Finally, the current challenges faced and future prospects for the advancement of lignin-derived CFs are proposed.","PeriodicalId":33706,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Energy","volume":"7 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cey2.662","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Metal-free carbon nitride has extensive applications but with almost no absorption and utilization of near-infrared light, accounting for 50% of sunlight. Here, a molten salt-assisted in-plane “stitching” and interlayer “cutting” protocol is developed for constructing a highly crystalline carbon nitride catalyst containing structural oxygen (HC-CN). HC-CN is highly efficient for the photothermal cascade transformation of biomass-derived glucose into lactic acid (LA) with an unprecedented yield (94.3%) at 25°C under full-spectrum light irradiation within 50 min, which is also applicable to quantitatively photo-upgrading various saccharides. Theoretical calculations expound that the light-induced glucose-to-catalyst charge transfer can activate the C\u0000 β\u0000 –H bond to promote the rate-determining step of intramolecular hydrogen shift in glucose-to-fructose isomerization. Meanwhile, the introduced structural oxygen in HC-CN can not only facilitate the local electric field formation to achieve rapid charge transport/separation and regulate selective •O2\u0000 − generation for oriented C3–C4 bond cleavage of fructose but also narrow the energy band gap to broaden the light absorption range of HC-CN, contributing to enhanced LA production without exogenous heating. Moreover, HC-CN is highly recyclable and exhibits negligible environmental burden and low energy consumption, as disclosed by the life cycle assessment. Tailored construction of full-spectrum light adsorption and versatile reaction sites provides a reference for implementing multi-step biomass and organic conversion processes under mild conditions.","PeriodicalId":33706,"journal":{"name":"Carbon Energy","volume":"7 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":19.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cey2.675","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143749334","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
