Different mechanisms between biochar and activated carbon for the persulfate catalytic degradation of sulfamethoxazole: Roles of radicals in solution or solid phase

TL;DR: In this paper, two biochar produced from pyrolysis of peanut shell at 400°C and 700°C (BC700) were used to assist persulfate (PS) catalytic degradation of sulfamethoxazole (SMX), a commercial AC was included as a comparison.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unraveling the Beneficial Electrochemistry of IrO2/MoO3 Hybrid as a Highly Stable and Efficient Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalyst

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the OER beneficial mixed oxide composite of molybdenum and iridium oxides by a facile hydrothermal method, which exhibited a robust nature toward harsh acidic water electrolysis as compared to an alkaline environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iridium substitution in nickel cobaltite renders high mass specific OER activity and durability in acidic media

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored inverse spinel, nickel cobaltite, as a host structure that provides OER beneficial structural motif to iridium sites on account of relatively higher IrO6 edge sharing than in rutile IrO2.
Journal ArticleDOI

OER activity manipulated by IrO 6 coordination geometry: an insight from pyrochlore iridates

TL;DR: Characterizations reveal that distorted IrO6 in Pb-Ir induces a disappearance of J = 1/2 subbands in valence band, while Bi-Ir and IrO2 resist this nature probe, and DFT calculations indicated the distortion in IrO 6 geometry can optimize binding strength between Ir-5d and O-2p due to broader d band width.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ni–Co Codoping Breaks the Limitation of Single-Metal-Doped IrO2 with Higher Oxygen Evolution Reaction Performance and Less Iridium

TL;DR: In this article, a codoped solid iridium solution with cobalt and nickel atomically substituted 50% of the precious metal in the host structure of the iridium lattice, and the synthesized codoped irO2 reflected an overpotential of only 285 mV at a current density of 10 mA·cm-2, which is appreciably lower than the 320 and 330 mV for individually doping cobalt, respectively.
