Both the deactivation rate constant (kd) and the Brtnsted acid sites per unit cell were calculated to quantitatively evaluate the stability of Mo/HZSM-5 catalysts treated with steam at 813 K before and after impregnation of molybdenum species, and the corresponding variation of their Brtnsted acid sites. The results reveal that a V-shape relationship between kd and the number of B 1 acid sites per unit cell is presented on Mo/HZSM-5 catalyst under the tested steam-treatment and reaction conditions.展开更多

In this study, a new strategy, i.e. short-term dissolved oxygen (DO) shock during aerobic fermentation, was introduced to produce 5-aminolevulinic acid with a recombi-nant E. coli. Effects of duration time of DO shock operation on plasmid concentration, intracellular ALA synthase (ALAS) activity and ALA production were investigated in Erlenmeyer shake flasks. The results indicated that both ALAS activity and ALA yield were enhanced in an anaerobic operation of 45 rain in the early exponential phase during fermentation, while they decreased when the anaerobic operation time was further increased to 60 rain. The DO shock protocol was confirmed with the fed-batch fermentation in a 15 L fermenter and the ALA production achieved 9.4 g.L-1 (72 mmol.L-1), which is the highest yield in the fermentation broth reported up to now.展开更多

At the sea surface, distribution of dissolved oxygen is well simulated by all nine ESMs due to well-simulated sea surface temperature(SST), with both globally-averaged error and root mean square error(RMSE) close to zero, and both correlation coefficients and normalized standard deviation close to 1. However, the model performance differs from each other at the intermediate depth and deep ocean where important water masses exist. At the depth of 500 to 1 000 m where the oxygen minimum zones(OMZs) exist, all ESMs show a maximum of globally-averaged error and RMSE, and a minimum of the spatial correlation coefficient. In the ocean interior, the reason for model biases is complicated, and both the meridional overturning circulation(MOC) and the particulate organic carbon flux contribute to the biases of dissolved oxygen distribution. Analysis results show the physical bias contributes more. Simulation bias of important water masses such as North Atlantic Deep Water(NADW), Antarctic Bottom Water(AABW) and North Pacific Intermediate Water(NPIW) indicated by distributions of MOCs greatly affects the distributions of oxygen in north Atlantic, Southern Ocean and north Pacific, respectively.Although the model simulations of oxygen differ greatly from each other in the ocean interior, the multi-model mean shows a better agreement with the observation.展开更多

文摘5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is a common precursor for tetrapyrrole compounds in all kinds of organ isms and has wide applications in agriculture and medicines. In this study, a new strategy, i.e. short-term dissolved oxygen (DO) shock during aerobic fermentation, was introduced to produce 5-aminolevulinic acid with a recombi-nant E. coli. Effects of duration time of DO shock operation on plasmid concentration, intracellular ALA synthase (ALAS) activity and ALA production were investigated in Erlenmeyer shake flasks. The results indicated that both ALAS activity and ALA yield were enhanced in an anaerobic operation of 45 rain in the early exponential phase during fermentation, while they decreased when the anaerobic operation time was further increased to 60 rain. The DO shock protocol was confirmed with the fed-batch fermentation in a 15 L fermenter and the ALA production achieved 9.4 g.L-1 (72 mmol.L-1), which is the highest yield in the fermentation broth reported up to now.

文摘Kinetics of oxygen adsorption on single crystal Mn<sub>5</sub>Si<sub>3</sub> (111) surface and initial surface oxidation were investigated. Oxygen chemisorbs dissociatively at room temperature on Mn and Si atoms. A fast oxidation of Si atoms occurs followed by oxidation of Mn atoms at RT. The MnO<sub>2</sub> was reduced by Si atoms and the SiO was oxidized further to SiO<sub>2</sub> during the sample heating.

文摘Despite wide applications of noble metal-based catalysts in 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF)oxidation,promoting the catalytic performance at low loading amounts still remains a significant challenge.Herein,a series of metal oxide modified MO_(x)-Au/TiO_(2)(M=Fe,Co,Ni)catalysts with low Au loading amount of 0.5 wt%were synthesized.Addition of transition metal oxides promotes electron transfer and generation of the Au^(δ-)-O_(v)-Ti^(3+)interface.A combination study reveals that the dual-active site(Au^(δ-)-O_(v)-Ti^(3+))governs the catalytic performance of the ratedetermining step,namely hydroxyl group oxidation.Au^(δ-) site facilitates chemisorption and activation of O_(2) molecules.At the same time,O_(v)-Ti^(3+) site acts as the role of“killing two birds with one stone”:enhancing adsorption of both reactants,accelerating the activation and dissociation of H_(2)O,and facilitating activation of the adsorbed O_(2).Besides,superoxide radicals instead of base is the active oxygen species during the rate-determining step.On this basis,a FDCA yield of 71.2% was achieved under base-free conditions,complying with the“green chemistry”principle.This work provides a new strategy for the transition metal oxides modification of Au-based catalysts,which would be constructive for the rational design of other heterogeneous catalysts.

文摘Designing single-atom catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)are fashionable but challenging to boost the zinc-air battery performance.Significantly enhanced ORR activity by manganese(Mn)singleatom catalysts can be achieved by accurately regulating the coordination number of isolated Mn atoms.Theoretical calculations indicate that the single Mn-N5sites possess lower free energy barrier and higher oxygen adsorption performance than single Mn-N4sites to accelerate the ORR kinetics.Target to it,here we synthesize an atomically dispersed Mn-N5catalyst by precisely axial coordination of pyridinic-N doped into two-dimensional(2D)porous nanocarbon sheets(~3.56 nm thickness),which reveals outstanding catalytic activity and ultrahigh stability for the ORR in zinc-air battery owing to the inhomogeneous charge distribution of Mn-N5sites compared to the conventional single-site Mn-N4catalyst and Pt/C.This work gives a new strategy for in situ regulating the electronic structure of metal single-atoms and further promoting the overall ORR performance in energy systems.
