Review on the science and technology of water desalination by capacitive deionization

Metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles, also called porous coordination polymers, are a major part of nanomaterials science, and their role in catalysis is becoming central. The extraordinary variability and richness of their structures afford engineering synergies between the metal nodes, functional linkers, encapsulated substrates, or nanoparticles for multiple and selective heterogeneous interactions and activations in these MOF-based nanocatalysts. Pyrolysis of MOF-nanoparticle composites forms highly porous N- or P-doped graphitized MOF-derived nanomaterials that are increasingly used as efficient catalysts especially in electro- and photocatalysis. This review first briefly summarizes this background of MOF nanoparticle catalysis and then comprehensively reviews the fast-growing literature reported during the last years. The major parts are catalysis of organic and molecular reactions, electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, and views of prospects. Major challenges of our society are addressed using these well-defined heterogeneous catalysts in the fields of synthesis, energy, and environment. In spite of the many achievements, enormous progress is still necessary to improve our understanding of the processes involved beyond the proof-of-concept, particularly for selective methane oxidation, hydrogen production, water splitting, CO2 reduction to methanol, nitrogen fixation, and water depollution.

State of the Art and Prospects in Metal-Organic Framework (MOF)-Based and MOF-Derived Nanocatalysis.

Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an emerging technology for the facile removal of charged ionic species from aqueous solutions, and is currently being widely explored for water desalination applications. The technology is based on ion electrosorption at the surface of a pair of electrically charged electrodes, commonly composed of highly porous carbon materials. The CDI community has grown exponentially over the past decade, driving tremendous advances via new cell architectures and system designs, the implementation of ion exchange membranes, and alternative concepts such as flowable carbon electrodes and hybrid systems employing a Faradaic (battery) electrode. Also, vast improvements have been made towards unraveling the complex processes inherent to interfacial electrochemistry, including the modelling of kinetic and equilibrium aspects of the desalination process. In our perspective, we critically review and evaluate the current state-of-the-art of CDI technology and provide definitions and performance metric nomenclature in an effort to unify the fast-growing CDI community. We also provide an outlook on the emerging trends in CDI and propose future research and development directions.

Water desalination via capacitive deionization : What is it and what can we expect from it?

The MnOx and CeOx were in situ supported on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by a poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) assisted reflux route for the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3. X-Ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution TEM (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and NH3 temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) have been used to elucidate the structure and surface properties of the obtained catalysts. It was found that the in situ prepared catalyst exhibited the highest activity and the most extensive operating-temperature window, compared to the catalysts prepared by impregnation or mechanically mixed methods. The XRD and TEM results indicated that the manganese oxide and cerium oxide species had a good dispersion on the CNT surface. The XPS results demonstrated that the higher atomic concentration of Mn existed on the surface of CNTs and the more chemisorbed oxygen species exist. The H2-TPR results suggested that there was a strong interaction between the manganese oxide and cerium oxide on the surface of CNTs. The NH3-TPD results demonstrated that the catalysts presented a larger acid amount and stronger acid strength. In addition, the obtained catalysts exhibited much higher SO2-tolerance and improved the water-resistance as compared to that prepared by impregnation or mechanically mixed methods.

In situ supported MnO(x)-CeO(x) on carbon nanotubes for the low-temperature selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3.

Anatase TiO2-supported manganese and cobalt oxide catalysts with different Co/Mn molar ratios were synthesized by a conventional impregnation method and used for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH3. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption/desorption, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and temperature-programmed desorption with NH3 and NOx. Characterization of the catalyst confirmed that by using Co3O4 over Mn/TiO2, we enhanced NO oxidation ability. From in situ diffuse reflectance infrared transform spectroscopy (DRIFTs) analysis of desorption and the transient reaction, we concluded that the addition of Co could remarkably lower the activation energy of NOx chemisorption on the catalyst surface. In addition, low-temperature SCR activity mainly results from a “fast SCR” reaction. We observed four NOx species (bidentate nitrates, gaseous NO2, linear nitrites, and monodentate nitrites) on the surface of Mn/TiO2 and Co–Mn/TiO2 catalysts that all participated in the...

Mechanistic Aspects of deNOx Processing over TiO2 Supported Co–Mn Oxide Catalysts: Structure–Activity Relationships and In Situ DRIFTs Analysis

Nanoflaky MnOx on carbon nanotubes (nf-MnOx@CNTs) was in situ synthesized by a facile chemical bath deposition route for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3. This catalyst was mainly characterized by the techniques of X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), N2 adsorption–desorption analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), H2 temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR) and NH3 temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD). The SEM, TEM, XRD results and N2 adsorption–desorption analysis indicated that the CNTs were surrounded by nanoflaky MnOx and the obtained catalyst exhibited a large surface area as well. Compared with the MnOx/CNT and MnOx/TiO2 catalysts prepared by an impregnation method, the nf-MnOx@CNTs presented better NH3-SCR activity at low temperature and a more extensive operating temperature window. The XPS results showed that a higher atomic concentration of Mn4+ and more chemisorbed oxygen species existed on the surface of CNTs for nf-MnOx@CNTs. The H2-TPR and NH3-TPD results demonstrated that the nf-MnOx@CNTs possessed stronger reducing ability, more acid sites and stronger acid strength than the other two catalysts. Based on the above mentioned favourable properties, the nf-MnOx@CNT catalyst has an excellent performance in the low-temperature SCR of NO to N2 with NH3. In addition, the nf-MnOx@CNT catalyst also presented favourable stability and H2O resistance.

Low-temperature selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH₃ over nanoflaky MnOx on carbon nanotubes in situ prepared via a chemical bath deposition route.

The Co3O4 and Mn-doped Co3O4 nanoparticle were synthesized by a co-precipitation method and used as selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR) catalysts. After the doping of manganese oxides, the NH3-SCR activity of Mn0.05Co0.95Ox catalyst is greatly enhanced. The NO oxidation ability of two catalysts is compared, and the X-ray diffraction results demonstrate that Mn has been successfully doped into the lattice of Co3O4. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and temperature-programmed reduction with H2 results confirmed that there is a strong interaction between Mn and Co in the Mn0.05Co0.95Ox catalyst. Their adsorption and desorption properties were characterized by temperature-programmed desorption with NH3 or NO + O2 and in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (in situ DRIFTs). These results indicated that the doping of manganese could provide more acid sites on the catalysts, and bidentate nitrates species originated from NOx adsorption are obviously activated on...

In Situ DRIFTs Investigation of the Low-Temperature Reaction Mechanism over Mn-Doped Co3O4 for the Selective Catalytic Reduction of NOx with NH3

Developing low-temperature deNOx catalysts with high catalytic activity, SO2-tolerance and stability is highly desirable but remains challenging. Herein, by coating the mesoporous TiO2 layers on carbon nanotubes (CNTs)-supported MnOx and CeOx nanoparticles (NPs), we obtained a core–shell structural deNOx catalyst with high catalytic activity, good SO2-tolerance and enhanced stability. Transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, N2 sorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, H2 temperature-programmed reduction and NH3 temperature-programmed desorption have been used to elucidate the structure and surface properties of the obtained catalysts. Both the specific surface area and chemisorbed oxygen species are enhanced by the coating of meso-TiO2 sheaths. The meso-TiO2 sheaths not only enhance the acid strength but also raise acid amounts. Moreover, there is a strong interaction among the manganese oxide, cerium oxide and meso-TiO2 sheaths. Based on these favorable properties, the meso-TiO2 coated catalyst exhibits a higher activity and more extensive operating-temperature window, compared to the uncoated catalyst. In addition, the meso-TiO2 sheaths can serve as an effective barrier to prevent the aggregation of metal oxide NPs during stability testing. As a result, the meso-TiO2 overcoated catalyst exhibits a much better stability than the uncoated one. More importantly, the meso-TiO2 sheaths can not only prevent the generation of ammonium sulfate species from blocking the active sites but also inhibit the formation of manganese sulfate, resulting in a higher SO2-tolerance. These results indicate that the design of a core–shell structure is effective to promote the performance of deNOx catalysts.
