Despite its potential, reverse water-gas shift reaction via conventional thermal-catalysis faces several challenges, including low equilibrium conversion rates due to thermodynamic constraints, high energy consumption, and insufficient product selectivity. Here, this study demonstrates an evident synergetic effect between plasma and Ag/ZnO, on enhancing reverse water-gas shift reaction. The plasma catalytic system achieved significantly improved performance with a remarkable CO<sub>2</sub> conversion rate of 76.5%, a high CO selectivity of 96.8% and a CO yield of 74.1%, along with an energy efficiency as high as 0.19 mmol·kJ<sup>−1</sup>, surpassing the plasma alone system and ZnO catalytic systems. Results from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy confirm the presence of electronic metal-support interactions between Ag and ZnO, which facilitates the formation of electron-deficient Ag sites and partially reduced ZnO<sub><i>x</i></sub> species. These reactive sites, along with oxygen vacancies created during reduction treatment, enhance the adsorption and activation of H<sub>2</sub> and CO<sub>2</sub>, offering a dominant plasma-assisted surface reaction pathway for the improved reverse water-gas shift reaction. These findings underscore the crucial role of electronic metal-support interactions in manipulating surface environments to facilitate efficient plasma-assisted catalytic reactions, with significant implications for the rational design of catalysts capable of converting CO<sub>2</sub> efficiently under mild conditions.\u0000</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":571,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering","volume":"19 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11705-025-2588-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145166001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, porous carbon materials with high specific surface areas were synthesized using a one-step KOH activation method, with medium-low-temperature coal tar pitch serving as a carbon precursor. In addition, the performance and mechanism of LEV degradation via peroxydisulfate (PDS) activation were systematically explored. Characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, N<sub>2</sub> adsorption-desorption analysis, and field-emission scanning electron microscopy revealed that K11 possessed abundant pores, a specific surface area of up to 1220 m<sup>2</sup>·g<sup>−1</sup>, and numerous defects, which collectively provided a structural basis for its catalytic activity. Degradation experiments demonstrated that the LEV removal rate exceeded 91% under conditions of a 0.2 g·L<sup>−1</sup> PDS dosage, a 0.1 g·L<sup>−1</sup> K11 dosage, pH levels ranging from 3 to 9, and a temperature of 30 °C, with robust resistance to interference from co-existing ions and humic acid. Even in real water bodies, a removal rate of over 77.84% was maintained. Free-radical quenching experiments and electron spin resonance assays confirmed that the reaction proceeded predominantly via non-radical pathways, primarily involving the generation of singlet oxygen by PDS, along with a minor contribution from direct electron transfer pathways. High-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry identified LEV degradation intermediates, suggesting that the degradation pathways include piperazine ring cleavage, defluorination, and oxidation of the quinolone backbone.

By automating data analysis across structured and unstructured sources—including process parameters, experimental results, simulation data, and textual specifications—these systems address longstanding challenges such as manual parameter tuning, subjective expert reliance, and the gap between theoretical models and industrial application. This paper reviews the key barriers to broader adoption of large language model-based agent systems, including unstable software interfaces, limited dynamic modeling accuracy, and difficulties in multimodal data integration, which hinder scalable deployment. We then survey recent progress in domain-specific foundation models, model interpretability techniques, and industrial-grade validation platforms. Building on these insights, we propose a technical framework centered on three pillars: multimodal task perception, autonomous planning, and knowledge-driven iterative optimization. This framework supports adaptive reasoning and robust execution in complex simulation environments. Finally, we outline a next-generation intelligent paradigm where natural language-driven agent workflows unify high-level strategic intent with automated task execution. The paper concludes by identifying future research directions to enhance robustness, adaptability, and safety, paving the way for practical integration of large language model based agent systems into industrial-scale chemical process simulation.\u0000</p><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":571,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers of Chemical Science and Engineering","volume":"19 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.5,"publicationDate":"2025-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145142505","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 incorporation of DPO-HQ-EP significantly enhanced the flame retardancy of EP without compromising its glass transition temperature. The EP/DPO-HQ-EP/0.6 exhibited a limited oxygen index of 31.7% and achieved a V-0 rating in the vertical burning test.

A detailed investigation of the flame-retardant mechanism revealed that the improved flame retardancy of EP/DPO-HQ-EP samples was attributed to the release of phosphorus-containing free radicals and non-flammable gases in the gas phase, as well as the formation of a continuous and dense char layer in the condensed phase. Moreover, the dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor of EP/DPO-HQ-EP samples were lower than those of EP/0.
