Summary: The activity of bimetallic AuPd nanoparticles for alcohol oxidation reaction can be optimized by adjusting the Au/Pd molar ratio. Alloy AuPd nanoparticles of different compositions were synthesized through a sol-immobilization method. Calcination caused size increase and segregation of Pd to the surface, forming a core-shell structure. The catalytic activity increased after calcination, but decreased upon reduction, indicating the importance of PdO in the shell.

Summary: Selective catalytic oxidation is crucial in fine chemical and petrochemical industries, but it is challenging to achieve selective production of target products in the presence of multiple reaction paths. Single atom catalysts, different from nanoclusters and nanoparticles, offer opportunities for highly selective catalytic oxidation. This review summarizes recent advances in using novel catalytic materials for challenging selective oxidation reactions, including methane oxidation, alcohol oxidation, alkene epoxidation, and carbon monoxide oxidation. The key factors affecting catalytic performance, such as the electronic and geometric structures of single atoms, nanoclusters, and nanoparticles, are discussed. Understanding the active species, structures, activity-structure relationship, and mechanisms of these catalytic systems are highlighted, along with current challenges and future developments, aiming to guide the design of efficient and highly selective catalysts for heterogeneous oxidation reactions and to better understand their catalytic behaviors in a unified way.

Summary: Species assemblages of native and non-native fishes are common in freshwater systems worldwide, and the presence of non-native species may lead to negative impacts on native species through interspecific competition. In the Smith River watershed, rainbow trout were introduced by 1930, and since then, native mountain whitefish and non-native rainbow trout have likely coexisted. However, limited knowledge exists on their competition for food resources. This study quantified the diet compositions of rainbow trout and mountain whitefish in the Smith River and its tributary, Sheep Creek, revealing high diet overlap between the two species in the Smith River, indicating potential resource competition. Despite the overlap, some resource partitioning was observed, suggesting possible mechanisms for coexistence.

Summary: The impact of a boron-containing lubricant oil additive (BR) on the performance of a Pd/Rh-based three-way catalyst (TWC) is investigated and compared with the effects of no additive (NA) and the industry standard zinc dialkyl-dithiophosphate (ZDDP). Accelerated aging of the catalysts using a genset shows that the BR-aged TWC exhibits similar reactivity to the NA-aged TWC, while the ZDDP-aged TWC shows increased reactivity for certain gas species. Analytical techniques reveal the presence of boron in the BR-aged TWC samples, but no boron-related peaks are observed in the XRD pattern.

Summary: Catalytic oxidation of CH4 over nonprecious Ni/CeO2 catalysts with different CeO2 support morphologies (nanoparticles (P), rods (R), cubes (C)) and synthetic procedures (precipitation, sol-gel (SG)) was studied. The relationship among CeO2 morphologies, redox properties, surface areas, and CH4 oxidation activity was established. CeO2-R support showed higher oxygen vacancies, improved OSC and CH4 oxidation activity compared to CeO2-P and CeO2-C supports. The same activity pattern was observed for Ni containing catalysts (Ni/CeO2-R > Ni/CeO2-P > Ni/CeO2-C). Increasing CeO2 surface area by sol-gel synthesis method (CeO2-SG) improved the CH4 oxidation performance of CeO2-SG and Ni/CeO2-SG compared to CeO2-R and Ni/CeO2-R, respectively. All studied Ni/CeO2 nanocatalysts showed improved hydrothermal stability compared to conventional Pd/Al2O3.

Summary: The use of machine learning to predict the performance of specific adsorbents in phosphate adsorption shows great promise in saving time and revealing underlying mechanisms. However, the small size of the dataset and insufficient detailed information limits the model training process and the accuracy of results. To address this, the study employs a fuzzing strategy that replaces detailed numeric information with descriptive text messages on the physiochemical properties of adsorbents. This strategy allows the recovery of discarded samples with limited information, leading to accurate prediction of adsorption amount, capacity, and kinetics. The study also finds that phosphate uptake by adsorbents is generally through physisorption, with some involvement of chemisorption. The framework established in this study provides a practical approach for quickly predicting phosphate adsorption performance in urgent scenarios, using easily accessible information.
