“…C 1 products mainly include methane and methanol, and C 2+ products mainly include ethylene, ethanol, npropanol, etc. Notably, CO is generally considered to play an important role in greater than two-electron reduction products [168,190]. In the NPM-SACs/CS field, CO is absorbed strongly in metal centers, thereby, tending to generate C 1 (methane and methanol).…”

Non-precious metal single-atom catalysts (NPM-SACs) with unique electronic structures and coordination environments have gained much attention in electrocatalysis owing to their low cost, high atomic utilization, and high performance. NPM-SACs on carbon support (NPM-SACs/CS) are promising because of the carbon substrate with a large surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, and high chemical stability. This review provides an overview of recent developments in NPM-SACs/CS for the electrocatalytic field. First, the state-of-the-art synthesis methods and advanced characterization techniques of NPM-SACs/CS are discussed in detail. Then, the structural adjustment strategy of NPM-SACs/CS for optimizing electrocatalytic performance is introduced concisely. Furthermore, we provide a comprehensive summary of recent advances in developing NPM-SACs/CS for important electrochemical reactions, including carbon dioxide reduction reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, oxygen reduction reaction, and nitrogen reduction reaction. In the end, the existing challenges and future opportunities of NPM-SACs/CS in the electrocatalytic field are highlighted.

“…In contrast, once binary PMS and ZVC were mixed in the solution, the removal efficiency of OG reached 99.6% only after 10 min, and OG was completely removed within 20 min. It is preliminarily speculated that owing to the high reactivity of copper element [19][20][21], ZVC could effectively activate PMS to produce highly oxidative reactive species for rapid decomposition of OG.…”

Zero-valent metal (ZVMs)-based persulfate activation systems are extensively applied for the elimination of organic pollutants in aqueous environments. In this study, for the first time, zero-valent copper (ZVC) was employed as the peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activator for the efficient degradation of Orange G (OG). The physicochemical properties of ZVC were systematically characterized by FESEM, EDX, TEM, XRD and XPS measurements. Furthermore, the effects of catalyst loading, PMS dosage, OG concentration and inorganic anions on the ZVC/PMS system were, respectively, investigated and explicated. The formation of •OH and SO4•− in the system was verified by quenching experiments and then the possible reaction mechanism was proposed. This work can provide insight into water treatment technology based on ZVMs.

“…With the continuous expansion of social industrial development, the demand for fossil energy is also increasing. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] In addition to the positive significance for development, it also brings a series of negative effects, such as pollution to the environment and the resulting energy crisis. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] To deal with the above problems, nearly all countries have formulated policies to develop clean and renewable energy.…”

The increasingly severe energy crisis has strengthened the determination to develop environmentally friendly energy. And hydrogen has emerged as a candidate for clean energy. Among many hydrogen generation methods, biohydrogen stands out due to its environmental sustainability, simple operating environment, and cost advantages. This review focuses on the rational design of catalysts for fermentative hydrogen production. The principles of microbial dark fermentation and photo‐fermentation are elucidated exhaustively. Various strategies to increase the efficiency of fermentative hydrogen production are summarized, and some recent representative works from microbial dark fermentation and photo‐fermentation are described. Meanwhile, perspectives and discussions on the rational design of catalysts for fermentative hydrogen production are provided.
