Hydrocracking diversity in n-dodecane isomerization on Pt/ZSM-22 and Pt/ZSM-23 catalysts and their catalytic performance for hydrodewaxing of lube base oil

Nobel metallic Pt/ZSM-22 and Pt/ZSM-23 catalysts were prepared for hydroisomerization of normal dodecane and hydrodewaxing of heavy waxy lube base oil.The hydroisomerization performance of n-dodecane indicated that the Pt/ZSM-23 catalyst preferred to crack the C-C bond near the middle of n-dodecane chain,while the Pt/ZSM-22 catalyst was favorable for breaking the carbon chain near the end of n-dodecane.As a result,more than 2%of light products(gas plus naphtha)and3%more of heavy lube base oil with low-pour point and high viscosity index were produced on Pt/ZSM-22 than those on Pt/ZSM-23 while using the heavy waxy vacuum distillate oil as feedstock.

Advanced semiconductor catalyst designs for the photocatalytic reduction of CO_(2)

Using clean solar energy to reduce CO_(2)into value-added products not only consumes the over-emitted CO_(2)that causes environmental problems,but also generates fuel chemicals to alleviate energy crises.The photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction reaction(PCO_(2)RR)relies on the semiconductor photocatalysts that suffer from high recombination rate of the photo-generated carriers,low light harvesting capability,and low stability.This review explores the recent discoveries on the novel semiconductors for PCO_(2)RR,focusing on the rational catalyst design strategies(such as surface engineering,band engineering,hierarchical structure construction,single-atom catalysts,and biohybrid catalysts)that promote the catalytic performance of semiconductor catalysts on PCO_(2)RR.The advanced characterization techniques that contribute to understanding the intrinsic properties of the photocatalysts are also discussed.Lastly,the perspectives on future challenges and possible solutions for PCO_(2)RR are presented.

Synthesis and application of single-atom catalysts in sulfur cathode for high-performance lithium–sulfur batteries

Lithium–sulfur(Li-S)batteries are regarded as one of the most promising energy storage devices because of their low cost,high energy density,and environmental friendliness.However,Li-S batteries suffer from sluggish reaction kinetics and serious“shuttle effect”of lithium polysulfides(LiPSs),which causes rapid decay of battery capacity and prevent their practical application.To address these problems,introducing single-atom catalysts(SACs)is an effective method to improve the electrochemical performance of Li-S batteries,due to their high catalytic efficiency and definite active sites for LiPSs.In this paper,we summarized the latest developments in enhancing the electrochemical performance of cathode for Li-S batteries through introducing different SACs.Furthermore,we briefly introduced the catalytic mechanism of SACs and discussed the strategies of synthesizing SACs,including the spatial confinement strategy and the coordination design strategy.Finally,the challenges and prospects in this field are proposed.We believe that this review would help to design and fabricate high-performance Li-S batteries via introducing SACs and boost their practical application.
