Single Pt atom catalysts are key targets because a high exposure of Pt substantially enhances electrocatalytic activity. In addition, PtRu alloy nanoparticles are the most active catalysts for the methanol oxidation reaction. To combine the exceptional activity of single Pt atom catalysts with an active Ru support we must overcome the synthetic challenge of forming single Pt atoms on noble metal nanoparticles. In this report we demonstrate a process that grows and spreads Pt islands on Ru branched nanoparticles to create single-Pt-atom-on-Ru catalysts. By following the spreading process by in situ TEM, we found that the formation of a stable single atom structure is thermodynamically driven by the formation of strong Pt–Ru bonds and the lowering of the surface energy of the Pt islands. The stability of the single-Pt-atom-on-Ru structure and its resilience to CO poisoning result in a high current density and mass activity for the methanol oxidation reaction over time.
Atomically dispersed Co–Fe dual sites on nitrogen doped microporous carbon are constructed for ORR with superior performance, while XAS, differential PDF dPDF and DFT studies reveal the relationship between the catalytic performance and the local chemical environment.
The use of sulfone-based redox mediators in electrocatalytic CO 2 reduction by Cr-centered complexes enhances the turnover frequencies at lower overpotentials via inner-sphere electron transfer and pancake bonding.
A dibenzophosphole oxide is intrinsically inactive for electrocatalytic CO 2 reduction, however, when combined with a Cr complex it can coordinate in a reduced state, facilitating electron transfer and improving activity.
Surface oxidation and the adsorption of different carbon species on a cobalt model catalyst were investigated using near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy in the mbar range of H 2 , CO, and Fischer–Tropsch-like reaction conditions.

The overall purpose of the geochemical monitoring program under Midwestern Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (MRCSP) is to use stable and radiogenic isotope geochemistry in concert with analysis of general geochemical parameters of fluids and gases and analysis of core samples to determine geochemical processes occurring in the reef structure because of CO 2 injection..
The “Southeast Regional CO 2 Utilization and Storage Acceleration Partnership” (SECARB-USA) project supported the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy's (FE) mission to help the United States meet its need for secure, affordable, and environmentally sound fossil energy supplies by utilizing the advancements made since 2003 by the Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (RCSP) Initiative to continue to identify and address knowledge gaps.
