Summary: Polyoxometalate (POM) mesoporous silica-based materials with hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties have been designed as powerful heterogeneous catalysts in oxidative desulfurization (ODS) by adsorbing both H2O2 and sulphur-containing compounds simultaneously. The formation of charge transfer salts and the masking of silanol groups on the silica surface influence the catalysts' interactions and enhance the adsorption properties of non-polar dibenzothiophene (DBT). An extensive characterization of the materials has been performed using spectroscopy and electrochemical techniques to understand POM-surface and POM-POM anion interactions.

Summary: This study investigated the photocatalytic transformation pathways of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and the inhibition mechanisms of its degradation efficiency reduction using TiO2 supported on nickel foam (TiO2/NF) as the photo-catalyst and pharmaceutical micropollutant. The produced intermediates during the photocatalytic degradation of 5-FU were identified as mono/polyhydroxylated compounds, short-chain oxides, and carboxylation ones. The inhibition of 5-FU degradation was found to be attributed to the competition for hydroxyl radical (center dot OH) and the preferential consumption of center dot OH in the TiO2 diffusion layer by the intermediates.

Summary: Nitrate (NO3-) and nitrite (NO2-) are common water pollutants and need to be controlled for water quality. A method using Pd-loaded TiO2 (Pd/TiO2) in an aqueous suspension has been developed for the conversion of nitrite to nitrate. The presence of aquatic pollutants such as arsenite (As (III)) or 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) can change the main photoconversion product from nitrate to N-2 and enhance the durability of Pd/TiO2. This process can be a viable treatment option for nitrite-contaminated water with various aquatic pollutants.

Summary: The first examples of phenanthroimidazole-based covalent organic frameworks (COFs), PIm-COF1 and PIm-COF2, were reported in this study, showing substantial optical properties. PIm-COF2 exhibited an average hydrogen evolution rate of 7417.5 μmolg-1h-1, which was 14 times higher than that of PIm-COF1 (528.5 μmolg-1h-1). This can be attributed to the strong donor-acceptor effect of PIm-COF2 and the continuous separation and transfer of the photoexcited electron-hole pair from the phenanthro[9,10-d]imidazole moiety, which was confirmed by time-dependent density functional theory and excitation state analysis.

Summary: By utilizing few-nm-thin two-dimensional nanocrystals of MOF-5, a crystal lattice-guided wet-chemical etching process has been developed to regulate attractive pore patterns on the MOF surface. The optimized etching process produces size-tunable fractal-pores that enhance the activity and stability of the supported catalyst in photoelectrochemical CO2-to-CO reduction. The long-range fractal opening in the 2D MOF support structure facilitates cross-interface charge transportation and exposure of immobilized Re-I-catalysts.

Summary: In this study, we investigated the oxidation of iodide by different types of manganese dioxides (??- MnO2, ??-MnO2, and ??-MnO2) in frozen and aqueous solutions. The results show that in frozen environments, a heterogeneous reaction produces reactive iodine (RI), which gradually transforms into iodate or iodide upon thawing depending on the types of manganese dioxides. Additionally, iodination of fulvic acid by I???/MnO2 was observed in both aqueous and frozen solutions, with higher yields of organoiodine compounds (OICs) obtained in frozen solution.

Summary: Researchers have developed a p-type NiO nanoplate thin film photocathode with rich Ni vacancies, which can harvest sunlight and store electrical energy in a single material. The band gap excitation of NiO creates surface adsorption of hydroxide anions and storage of photogenerated holes, forming NiOOH. The stored energy in NiOOH can be discharged to provide a sustainable current in the absence of light. The energy storage capacities of NiO depend on the electrolyte pH and the applied bias.

Summary: In this study, the molecular-level reaction mechanism of nanoporous gold electrodes for the conversion of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide was investigated using surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS). It was found that the nanoporous gold electrodes promoted the formation of linear CO intermediate and suppressed the formation of bridging CO intermediate. The study also revealed a high local pH and slow diffusion kinetics of local CO3 (2-) at specific reaction potentials. These findings provide insights into the electrochemical kinetics and mechanisms occurring in the electric double layers, highlighting the potential for designing efficient electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction.
