An increased energy recovery efficiency can be obtained from biomass waste due to coupling hydrothermal carbonation (HTC) with anaerobic digestion (AD). This study focused on optimizing the total energy yield (TEY) from sewage sludge (SS) and pinewood sawdust (PS) in co-HTC-AD coupling process,...

Large particle spherical poly-ionic liquid-solid base catalyst(PILs-FL) was synthesized by suspension polymerization. This catalyst was characterized by SEM-EDS、 T.G. 、FT-IR, and BET-BJH. The characterization results show that PILs-FL has a specific core structure, a certain size of surface...

Direct synthesis of valuable aromatics, such as xylene from CO2 hydrogenation is of highly interest for carbon emission reduction and reutilization, but it remains a challenge due to the poor product yield limited by low CO2 conversion. On the other hand, toluene methylation with methanol...

The present contribution reports a one-step synthesis method for B-Ni/MgAl 2 O 4 via the NaBH 4 reduction for dry reforming of methane (DRM) and investigates the effect of B promotion. Characterizations (ICP-OES, XRD, H 2 -TPR, XPS, HR-TEM with EDS and HAADF) results suggested the formation of...

A stable, low-cost, and reusable Co nanoparticles catalyst imbedded in nitrogen-doped carbon matrix (Co@C-N) for selective catalytic hydrogenation (CHG) of furfural (FF) to furfuryl alcohol (FA) has been exploited. The catalyst is directly derived from 2-methylimidazole modified ZIF-67 MOFs...

Combined cycle power plants, which combine gas and steam turbines, have an adverse impact on surrounding populations and structures. Input data can be fine-tuned to reduce this effect. If the parameters that affect the NOx (NOx = NO2 + NO) value measured as an output are properly determined, the...

A series of oxygen-functionalized activated carbon (AC) supported vanadia catalysts were first synthesized for the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH3 via wet oxidation method using ammonium persulfate ((NH4)2S2O8) as an oxidant. The physicochemical properties of...

Highly porous polyaniline-derived carbons (pDCs) were used as adsorbents to adsorb/remove hazardous organonitrogens (ONs) from liquid fuel for the first time. The nitrogen-rich pDCs were obtained via the carbonization of polyaniline (pANI) under an inert atmosphere. Further, the pDCs were...

The development of highly efficient and stable electrocatalysts for their application in electrochemical detection is desirable. Herein, a new copper nanowires (CuNWs) modified electrode was fabricated by coating poly(dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA) stabilized CuNWs composite onto the...

To ensure carbon neutrality goal, coal-fired power plants will have to take responsibility of deep peak regulation, which is essential to the development of renewable energy power. The penalty for deep peak-regulating operation of coal-fired power units could be more than 40 g/kW·h of the net...
