Catalytic Combustion of Propane/Air Mixtures on Platinum

A honeycomb catalyst of platinum (4.2 kg/cu m loading) over cordierite, with gamma-alumina washcoat, a cross section of 2.4 x 2.4 sq cm, a length of 7.6 cm, and a characteristic channel diameter of 1.4 mm is used as a steady flow reactor. Measurements are made with C3H8/air mixtures at 650 to 800 K inlet temperatures, 110 KPa pressure, 10 to 40 m/s inlet velocity, 0.19 to 0.32 equivalence ratios, and approximately 1.5 mole percent water content. The measured quantities are the substrate tempeature at ten axial locations, the exhaust gas temperature, the exhaust concentrations of CO, CO2, O2, and total hydrocarbons, and the pressure drop across the monolith. The measured quantities are compared with those computed with a two-dimensional steady-state model for axial and radial convection and diffusion of mass, momentum, energy and homogeneous (three overall reactions) and heterogeneous (infinitely fast) reactions. It is found that, under the tested conditions, most of the fuel is converted to CO2 and H2O at the surface. Gas-phase reactions tend rapidly to become more important as the temperature and equivalence ratio are increased and the flow velocity is decreased. Surface fuel conversion is much more rapid than fuel diffusion, resulting in diffusion-controlled oxidation.

Depolymerization of polyesters by a binuclear catalyst for plastic recycling

Plastics play an essential role in modern society, however, the relentless growth of their production is threatening both human health and ecosystems. As a result, there are intensive efforts in developing recycling technologies to repurpose waste plastics into the building blocks for valuable materials. Here we show a binuclear complex that can catalyze the degradation of polyethylene terephthalate (PET)-the most widely used polyester globally-and a wide spectrum of other plastics including polylactic acid (PLA), polybutylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyurethane (PU) and Nylon 66. Inspired by hydrolases, the group of enzymes that catalyze bond cleavages with water, the present catalyst design features biomimetic Zn-Zn sites which activate the plastic, stabilize the key intermediate, and enable intramolecular hydrolysis. This synthetic catalyst delivers activities of 36 mg PET d -1 g catal -1 toward PET depolymerization at pH 8 and 40 oC, and of 577 g PET d -1 g catal -1 at pH 13 and 90 oC for scalable PET recycling. We further demonstrate the closed-loop production of a bottle-grade PET. This work presents a practical and viable solution to the sustainable management of plastics waste.

Direct methane activation by atomically thin platinum nanolayers on two-dimensional metal carbides

We report efficient and direct conversion of methane to value-added products has been a long-term challenge in shale gas applications. Here, we show that atomically thin nanolayers of Pt with a single or double atomic layer thickness, supported on a two-dimensional molybdenum titanium carbide (MXene), catalyse non-oxidative coupling of methane to ethane/ethylene (C 2 ). Kinetic and theoretical studies, combined with in-situ spectroscopic and microscopic characterizations, demonstrate that Pt nanolayers anchored at the hexagonal close-packed sites of the MXene support can activate the first C–H bond of methane to form methyl radicals that favour desorption over further dehydrogenation and thus suppress coke deposition. At 750 °C and 7% methane conversion, the catalyst runs for 72 hours of continuous operation without deactivation and exhibits >98% selectivity towards C 2 products, with a turnover frequency of 0.2–0.6 s -1 . Our findings provide insights into the design of highly active and stable catalysts for methane activation and create a platform for developing atomically thin supported metal catalysts.

Supported Single‐Atom Manganese Catalysts for the Trimerization of Ethylene

Selective ethylene oligomerization via oxidative cyclization, forming metallacyclic intermediates, is typically catalyzed by molecular titanium and chromium complexes to produce butenes, hexenes, or octenes, depending on the supporting ligand framework. However, this mechanism requires significant electron density at the metal active site and is not known to be generalizable to other first-row transition metals. In this work, we computationally investigate the electronic modulation of five transition metals (Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu) supported on titania (TiO₂) through reductive lithium intercalation to promote selective oligomerization via oxidative cyclization, using density functional theory (DFT). Our findings predict that Mn/LiTiO₂ exhibits high catalytic activity due to the exergonic nature of oxidative cyclization with two ethylene molecules. Additionally, lithium titanate (LiTiO₂) supports enhance catalytic performance compared to TiO₂. Experimental validation confirms that Mn/LiTiO₂ achieves higher conversion rates and improved selectivity toward hexene (C₄:C₆ = 1:2.6). The enhanced activity is attributed to lithiation, which alters the electronic environment around Mn active sites. Mechanistic studies reveal that the formation of a seven-membered ring, a key intermediate for hexene formation, is more favorable on LiTiO₂ than TiO₂. This work provides the first evidence of Mn catalyzing selective ethylene oligomerization via oxidative cyclization in either homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysis.

Atomic-scale identification of active sites of oxygen reduction nanocatalysts

Heterogeneous nanocatalysts play a crucial role in both the chemical and energy industries. Despite substantial advancements in theoretical, computational and experimental studies, identifying their active sites remains a major challenge. Here we utilize atomic electron tomography to determine the three-dimensional atomic structure of PtNi and Mo-doped PtNi nanocatalysts for the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction. We then employ the experimental atomic structures as input to first-principles-trained machine learning to identify the active sites of the nanocatalysts. Through the analysis of the structure–activity relationships, we formulate an equation termed the local environment descriptor, which balances the strain and ligand effects to provide physical and chemical insights into active sites in the oxygen reduction reaction. The ability to determine the three-dimensional atomic structure and chemical composition of realistic nanoparticles, combined with machine learning, could transform our fundamental understanding of the active sites of catalysts and guide the rational design of optimal nanocatalysts.

Influence of Ag metal dispersion on the thermal conversion of ethanol to butadiene over Ag-ZrO 2 /SiO 2 catalysts

Atomistic scale models were developed and coupled with experimental investigation to deliver a functional understanding of catalytic activity and selectivity in the conversion of ethanol to 1,3-butadiene over Ag/ZrO 2 /SiO 2 . A detailed evaluation of the structural and electronic properties of the resultant catalyst models led to the identification of critical active sites of the catalyst. More importantly, the extent of Ag dispersion on the SiO 2 support and relative proximity to ZrO 2 were found to vary with the oxidation state of Ag and local coordination environment (Ag-O SiO2 ) allowing for critical control of ethanol conversion towards butadiene or ethylene. Simulations revealed that less dispersed or clustered Ag contain predominantly Ag 0 charge state and promote conversion of ethanol to ethylene. The well-dispersed Ag/ZrO 2 /SiO 2 catalyst instead contain a larger fraction of cationic Ag δ+ , and predominantly promote ethanol dehydrogenation and subsequent production of butadiene. The theoretical insights drawn were validated and confirmed experimentally using TEM, XRD and reactivity measurements demonstrating the effect of Ag dispersion on the selectivity of ethanol conversion.

Revealing the Influence of Diverse Secondary Metal Cations on Redox-Active Palladium Complexes

Incorporation of redox-inactive metals into redox-active complexes and catalysts attracts attention for engendering new reactivity modes, but this strategy has not been extensively investigated beyond the first-row of the transition metals. In this report the isolation and characterization of the first series of heterobimetallic complexes of palladium with mono-, di-, and tri-valent redox-inactive metal ions are reported. A Reinhoudt-type heteroditopic ligand with a salen-derived [N 2 ,O 2 ] binding site for Pd and a crown-ether-derived [O 6 ] site has been used to prepare isolable adducts of the Lewis acidic redox-inactive metal ions (M n+ ). Comprehensive data from single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveal distinctive trends in the structural properties of the heterobimetallic species, including an uncommon dependence of the Pd … M distance on Lewis acidity. The reorganization energy associated with reduction of the heterobimetallic species is strongly modulated by Lewis acidity, with the slowest heterogeneous electron transfer kinetics associated with the strongest incorporated Lewis acids. This hitherto unexplored reorganization energy penalty for electron transfer contrasts with prior thermodynamic studies, revealing that kinetic parameters should be considered in studies of reactivity involving heterobimetallic species.

Increase in the effective viscosity of polyethylene under extreme nanoconfinement

Understanding polymer transport in nanopores is crucial for optimizing heterogeneously catalyzed processes in polymer upcycling and fabricating high-performance nanocomposite films and membranes. Although confined polymer dynamics have been extensively studied, the behavior of polyethylene (PE)—the most widely used commodity polymer—in pores smaller than 20 nm remains largely unexplored. We investigate the effects of extreme nanoconfinement on PE transport using capillary rise infiltration in silica nanoparticle packings with average pore radii ranging from ~1 to ~9 nm. Using in situ ellipsometry and the Lucas–Washburn model, we discover a previously unknown inverse relationship between effective viscosity (η eff ) and average pore radius (R pore ). Additonally, we determine that PE transport under these extreme conditions is primarily governed by physical confinement, rather than pore surface chemistry. We refine an existing theory to provide a generalized formalism to describe the polymer transport dynamics over a wide range of pore radii (from 1 nm and larger). Our results offer valuable insights for optimizing catalyst supports in polymer upcycling and improving infiltration processes for nanocomposite fabrication.

Regeneration of Active Surface Alloys during Cyclic Oxidation and Reduction: Oxidation of H 2 on Pd/Ag(111)

The surface morphology and composition of a catalyst during excursions between oxidizing and reducing conditions can change substantially, especially in bimetallic alloys. Both thermodynamic and kinetic factors play a role in determining the properties of alloy surfaces where the active phase may be a metastable state. Previously, Ag oxide reduction was shown to be dramatically enhanced when Pd is on the surface; however, Pd is more stable when dissolved in Ag, raising the question as to whether a highly active Pd surface state will persist over multiple reaction cycles—a requirement for catalytic function. Experiments herein demonstrate that the enhanced chemical functionality due to the presence of Pd on the surface is retained, based on the enhanced rate of silver oxide reduction over multiple oxidation/reduction cycles for a Pd/Ag(111) model. Repeated oxidation and reduction promote PdAg alloying and reversible structural and compositional changes are detected using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Furthermore, this study establishes that metastable phases can persist in reactive processes on surfaces, indicating their potential in heterogeneous catalysis.

RANGE: A robust adaptive nature-inspired global explorer of potential energy surfaces

With the growing demand for realistic representations of chemical structures and the advent of exascale computing, the intelligent sampling of potential energy surfaces and efficient identification of global minima have become more essential but also more feasible. Building on prior studies demonstrating the efficiency of the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) swarm intelligence algorithm, we report a hybrid metaheuristic framework that integrates the adaptive exploration capabilities of ABC coupled with the exploitation strengths of genetic algorithms (GA) in a scalable, Python-based implementation. The resulting tool, RANGE (Robust Adaptive Nature-inspired Global Explorer), provides seamless interfaces to multiple potential energy evaluators, either directly or via widely used Python libraries, and is designed for high-performance computing environments. We describe the implementation details of RANGE and evaluate its performance, relative to ABC- or GA-alone based algorithms, on a variety of chemical systems, including molecular clusters and heterogeneous surfaces. In conclusion, our results demonstrate RANGE’s efficiency, robustness, and broad applicability in addressing challenging global optimization problems in computational chemistry and materials science.

Redistribution of Ru in Fe 2 O 3 –Ru Nanocatalysts through an Oxidative Pretreatment Improves Reverse Water–Gas Shift Activity

We have synthesized Fe–Ru nanoparticles via a solvothermal method to create catalysts for the reverse water–gas shift reaction and demonstrated the impact of reductive and oxidative pretreatments on both catalytic performance and structure. Catalytic testing showed improved activity after exposure to O 2 at 600 °C. In contrast, the activity became lower if then exposed to H 2 at 600 °C. Environmental scanning transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy showed that exposure to O 2 at 600 °C changes the morphology and completely oxidizes Fe into Fe 2 O 3 . Exposure to H 2 at elevated temperature caused Ru coalescence at the surface of the nanoparticle, forming clusters which decreased the optimization of Ru. Reoxidation of the particles exposed to H 2 , however, caused a redistribution of Ru that appears beneficial in maximizing Ru exposure and synergy with Fe oxide, with no major changes in the morphology and oxide structure. Furthermore, our diagnostics demonstrate the complex and reversible rearrangements possible in these multicomponent particles and the benefits of oxidative pretreatment to enhance or regenerate Fe–Ru catalysts in other important catalytic reactions such as Fischer–Tropsch synthesis.

Microkinetic Modeling of the Transient CO 2 Methanation with DFT–Based Uncertainties in a Berty Reactor

The transient operation of methanation reactors can become desirable when coupled with fluctuating renewable energies in Power-to-Gas scenarios, which requires suitable kinetic approaches that can describe the transient catalytic phenomena. A combined experimental and theoretical investigation of the transient CO 2 methanation is conducted using concentration forcing to derive a suitable microkinetic model. Methanation experiments are performed with a Ni/SiO 2 catalyst in a Berty-type reactor at industrially relevant conditions. The microkinetics are based on previous work and were automatically constructed for the Ni(111) facet using the Reaction Mechanism Generator. A feasible set of energetic parameters of the microkinetic models was identified in a theory-constrained optimization procedure within the DFT uncertainty space that can accurately reproduce the experimental results on a first-principles basis. The microkinetic model unravels that the formation of H 2 O* and CH 3 * control the activity and selectivity of Ni(111) under the investigated conditions.

Rapid atom-efficient polyolefin plastics hydrogenolysis mediated by a well-defined single-site electrophilic/cationic organo-zirconium catalyst

Polyolefins comprise a major fraction of single-use plastics, yet their catalytic deconstruction/recycling has proven challenging due to their inert saturated hydrocarbon connectivities. Here a very electrophilic, formally cationic earth-abundant single-site organozirconium catalyst chemisorbed on a highly Brønsted acidic sulfated alumina support and characterized by a broad array of experimental and theoretical techniques, is shown to mediate the rapid hydrogenolytic cleavage of molecular and macromolecular saturated hydrocarbons under mild conditions, with catalytic onset as low as 90 °C/0.5 atm H 2 with 0.02 mol% catalyst loading. For polyethylene, quantitative hydrogenolysis to light hydrocarbons proceeds within 48 min with an activity of > 4000 mol(CH 2 units)·mol(Zr) –1 ·h –1 at 200 °C/2 atm H 2 pressure. Under similar solventless conditions, polyethylene-co–1-octene, isotactic polypropylene, and a post-consumer food container cap are rapidly hydrogenolyzed to low molecular mass hydrocarbons. Regarding mechanism, theory and experiment identify a turnover-limiting C-C scission pathway involving ß-alkyl transfer rather than the more common σ-bond metathesis.

Effect of Co/SiO 2 Single-Site Heterogeneity on Small Alkane Dehydrogenation Kinetics

Atomically dispersed, high-spin Co(II) atoms in distorted tetrahedral coordination to an amorphous silica (am-SiO 2 ) support, and more recently in zeolite frameworks, are active and selective for light alkane dehydrogenation. This paper investigates how variations in the geometry of the active sites affect the ethane dehydrogenation activity of atomically dispersed Co(II) on an am-SiO 2 support. We generate a distribution of sites and determine the geometric parameters that exhibit the strongest correlation with the coordination geometry and activity of the metal atom by means of linear dimensionality reduction techniques. We perform electronic structure calculations and microkinetic modeling and deduce the mechanism and kinetics for a representative sample of sites. Irrespective of the active site geometry, the rate of ethane dehydrogenation is governed by the β-hydride elimination, which involves quartet-doublet spin-crossing and proceeds adiabatically due to strong spin-orbit coupling. Informed by the complete microkinetic analysis of the sites, we derive the reduced rate expression as a function of three site-dependent quantities. We show that these site-dependent quantities correlate with the energy of formation of the ethyl intermediate that forms via C-H bond activation. This correlation allows us to derive the site-averaged rate for the entire distribution of sites. Among various sites, the tri-coordinate and planar tetra-coordinate Co sites exhibit higher Lewis acidity than the tetrahedral sites, and consequently, higher initial rates. Finally, we discuss the implications for more active catalysts.

From Nonclassical to Classical: Crystallization Seeds Reshape Nucleation Mechanisms

Crystalline seeds are widely employed in crystallization to accelerate nucleation and control product polymorphs; yet, their impact on nucleation mechanisms remains poorly understood. While homogeneous nucleation of crystals from solution often proceeds through nonclassical pathways involving amorphous intermediates, it is unclear how seeds that promote heterogeneous nucleation reshape these mechanisms and govern polymorph selection. Here, in this study, we provide the first direct evidence that crystalline seeds can bypass the need for amorphous intermediates as nucleation sites, converting nonclassical nucleation mechanisms into classical, monomer-by-monomer crystallization pathways. Using molecular dynamics simulations of zeolite synthesis, we uncover a complex reaction network of competing nucleation processes mediated by intermediate interfacial polymorphs. The interplay between thermodynamic stability and kinetic favorability of these interfacial polymorphs dictates nucleation outcomes, creating a dynamic balance between the interfacial polymorph stability and crystallization rates. Furthermore, we show that the synthesis environment-whether monomers or aggregates serve as reactants-profoundly impacts these pathways. At moderate supersaturation, seeds eliminate amorphous intermediates and promote classical nucleation, whereas high supersaturation or aggregate-based reactants favor nonclassical pathways, even in the presence of seeds. These findings establish a general framework for understanding how seeds govern crystallization mechanisms, with broad implications for controlling nucleation kinetics, polymorph selection, and material properties. While focused on zeolites, this work reveals insights that may be applicable to biominerals, pharmaceuticals, functional materials, and catalysts, providing a basis for engineering crystallization pathways in diverse applications.

Tunable Solid Acid Catalyst Thin Films Prepared by Atomic Layer Deposition

Solid acid catalysts, including zeolites and amorphous silica-aluminas (ASAs), are industrially important materials widely used in the fuel and petrochemical industries. The versatility of zeolites is due to the Brønsted acidity of the bridging hydroxyl and shape selectivity that can be tailored during and after synthesis. This is in contrast to amorphous silica-alumina, where tailoring acidity is a major challenge as the Brønsted acid structure in ASA is still debated. In both cases, however, the pore size and acidity cannot be tuned independently, and this is particularly limiting in the application of biomass conversion, where zeolite pores are too small for the molecules of interest. Herein, we present a method using atomic layer deposition (ALD) to prepare thin films of solid acid materials where the ratio of Brønsted to Lewis acid sites can be tuned precisely. This capability, combined with the sub-nm pore size control afforded by ALD yields a powerful and flexible method for synthesizing solid acid catalysts inside virtually any mesoporous host. We demonstrate the utility of these materials in two acid-catalyzed reactions relevant to biomass conversion: (1) Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley–Oppenauer (MPVO) reaction and dehydration of fructose and (2) cascade reaction of glucose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Finally, we propose a plausible structure for the Brønsted acid sites in our materials based on infrared spectroscopy and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance measurements and density functional theory calculations and argue that this same structure might apply to conventional ASAs as well.

Microstructural diversity and digestion yields of select bituminous and subbituminous coals as raw material candidates for carbon fiber precursor production

Here, this work investigates the use of coals as raw materials for carbon fiber precursor production as a new alternative to coal utilization. Coal being a highly complex and heterogeneous material with different macerals and minerals complicates this task. Extensive microstructural characterization as well as preliminary digestion studies are performed on three bituminous coals (Herrin and Springfield from the Illinois Basin and the Blue Gem from the Central Appalachians) and one subbituminous coal from the Powder River Basin (Monarch), as raw material candidates. The subbituminous coal was richer in oxygen, lower in sulfur, and had a higher volatile matter yield. Microstructural investigations were performed using X-ray diffraction, X-ray/neutron computed tomography, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy, and petrology. Mild solvent extraction studies were conducted using creosote and decant oil as solvents in microreactors. The extraction yield was sensitive to temperature and time (350 to 450 °C between 30 and 120 mins.) for both creosote and decant oil digestions. While the Blue Gem coal had more desirable microstructural properties with less mineral content and cleaner macerals, it had the lowest coal conversion to quinoline soluble ‘liquid’ (of the bituminous coals). The lower coal conversion yield was hypothesized to be connected to the lack of FeS2 which could act as a catalyst when Fe is liberated from the structure under solvent extraction conditions. The Herrin and Springfield coals revealed similar microstructures and coal conversion efficiencies (higher than Blue Gem). These coals were the most promising candidates for further examination from this first approximations study. The subbituminous Monarch coal, however, was deemed less suitable due to poor coal conversion and less desirable microstructures. Additionally, the presented results with combined microstructural data from multiple length scales established a framework necessary for a first approximations study in this new coal utilization approach.

Unusual Electrochemical Activity of Thin SiO 2 Layers Leads to Instability of Molecular Attachment in Hybrid Photoelectrodes

Hybrid photoelectrodes, comprised of a light-absorbing semiconductor and a surface-integrated molecular catalyst, are attractive for applications in artificial photosynthesis, since they combine the advantages of broadband semiconductor light absorption with the selectivity of molecular catalysis. A widely used class of hybrid photoelectrodes is based on Si substrates passivated by a thin (<3 nm) layer of silicon oxide, which is commonly prepared by controlled chemical or thermal oxidation, resulting in chemical oxide (ChO) or thermal oxide (ThO) layers, respectively. However, the electrochemical stability of these oxide layers, and the chemical stability of the semiconductor-molecule assembly in hybrid photoelectrodes, are not well understood, with evidence that covalently-bound molecules detach from the oxide surface upon application of cathodic bias. We have examined the intrinsic electrochemical reactivity of silicon oxide layers and how it affects the attachment of molecular monolayers. We determined that the surface of Si|ThO is primarily terminated with hydrophobic siloxane moieties, whereas that of Si|ChO contains a higher concentration of hydrophilic silanol groups. Initial high current densities for Si|ChO under applied bias up to -2 V vs. Ag/AgCl, decrease during repeated cyclic voltammetry scans, due to the consumption of surface-bound water. This is manifested by a reversible wave around -0.5 V in CH 3 CN solution, and a similar pH-dependent wave in water, revealing the pK a of the silanol groups to be ~4. Here, our combined observations support the electrochemically-induced dehydration of the SiO 2 surface, which converts silanol groups to siloxanes and proceeds through an H-atom intermediate that is most likely stabilized by pentavalent Si. We propose that similar reactivity is responsible for the electrochemical loss of alkylsiloxane-attached molecules under cathodic bias, which has important implications for the choice of catalyst attachment strategy in hybrid photoelectrodes.
