Electrodeposition of the manganese-doped nickel-phosphorus catalyst with enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction activity and durability

Hydrogen technology is widely considered a novel clean energy source, and electrolysis is an effective method for hydrogen evolution. Therefore, efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalysts are urgently needed to replace precious metal catalysts and meet ecological and environmental protection standards. Herein, Ni–Mn–P electrocatalysts are synthesized using facile electrodeposition technology. The influence of the Mn addition on the catalytic behavior is studied by the comprehensive analysis of catalytic performance and morphology of the catalysts. Among them, the Ni–Mn–P0.01 catalyst exhibits small coral-like structures, greatly improving the adsorption and desorption of hydrogen ions and reducing the overpotential hydrogen evolution. Consequently, overpotential at 10 mA cm^?2 electric current density is 113 mV, and the value of the Tafel slope achieves 74 mV/dec. Furthermore, the Ni–Mn–P catalyst shows long-time (20 h) stability at current densities of 10 and 60 mA/cm². The results confirm that the synergistic effect of Ni, Mn, and P accelerates the electrochemical reaction. Meanwhile, the addition of manganese element can change the micromorphology of the catalyst, thereby exposing more active sites to participate in the reaction, enhancing water ionization, improving the catalytic performance. This study opens a new way toward improving the activity of the catalyst by adjusting Mn concentration during the electrodeposition process.

以工业啤酒酵母为碳源，采用一步法合成了微生物质水热碳锰复合材料（MHTC），并利用XRD、FT-IR和SEM等对材料进行了表征。在此基础上，系统研究了不同C/Mn原子比、初始pH值、接触时间、初始铀浓度对MHTC吸附铀性能的影响。结果表明：C/Mn原子比为1∶10的碳锰复合材料（MHTC-10）对铀的吸附性能最优。在铀初始浓度为50 mg/L、初始pH=4.5条件下，12 h可达吸附平衡，最大吸附量为371 mg/g。吸附过程符合准二级动力学模型以及Freundlich等温模型。热力学数据表明，铀在MHTC-10上的吸附是一自发、放热的过程。该研究结果可为含铀环境中铀的分离富集提供新的思路。     

基于镧锶锰氧化物基阴极的中温固体氧化物燃料电池的性能优化研究

为了提高基于镧锶锰氧化物(LaxSr1-xMnO3,LSM)阴极的中温固体氧化物燃料电池(Solid Oxide Fuel Cell,SOFC)的电化学性能,文章利用CuO清扫Ce0.85Sm0.15O2-δ(SDC)晶界的SiO2杂质以提高SDC的离子电导率,制备了复合电解质材料SDC-CuO,并将SDC-CuO和LSM结合成复合阴极材料,随后分别制备了以LSM和LSM/SDC-CuO作为阴极的SOFC,并研究了这两种SOFC的电化学性能。研究结果表明:在开路电压和工作温度为800℃的条件下,LSM/SDC-CuO基阴极的SOFC的极化电阻为0.14Ω·cm2,明显低于LSM基阴极SOFC的极化电阻(0.36Ω·cm2);LSM/SDC-CuO基阴极的SOFC的最大输出功率密度为237 mW/cm2,显著高于LSM基阴极的SOFC的最大输出功率密度(132 mW/cm2)。     

温度对生物净化滤柱中氨氮、铁、锰去除效果的影响

温度是生物净化滤柱运行的一个重要参数，采用生物净化滤柱处理模拟含氨氮、铁、锰地下水，考察水温从约25℃降到约6℃过程中氨氮、铁、锰的去除效果。结果表明，出水氨氮、总铁、锰的浓度分别低于0.15mg/L、0.1mg/L、0.05mg/L，均低于国家标准。出水总铁、锰均未受到水温下降的影响，但是出水氨氮浓度逐渐从约0.02mg/L升高到约0.12mg/L。进一步分析发现，铁主要在滤层的0~0.4m段去除，去除效果没有受到水温变化的影响。氨氮、锰主要在滤层的0~0.8m段去除，其沿程浓度均随水温降低而明显升高。氨氮、锰的生物去除符合一级动力学反应，水温为24.6℃、15.3℃、6.7℃时，两者的动力学常数k分别为0.154min^-1、0.186min^-1，0.143min^-1、0.175min^-1，0.103min^-1、0.163min^-1；半反应时间t_1/2分别为4.51min、3.72min，4.83min、3.96min，6.72min、4.24min。随着试验水温的降低，氨氮、锰的去除效果明显受到影响。     

二乙基三胺五乙酸浸取-电感耦合等离子体质谱法测定石灰性土壤中有效态铜锌铁锰

采用二乙基三胺五乙酸(DTPA)浸提石灰性土壤样品中有效态Cu、Zn、Fe、Mn后,样品溶液基体盐分较大,此时若直接采用电感耦合等离子体质谱法(ICP-MS)进行测定,极易使仪器的采样锥和截取锥发生堵塞,雾室和炬管积盐,进而影响测定准确性。据此,实验用DTPA浸提样品后,采用对样品溶液稀释10~30倍和在标准溶液系列中加入DTPA溶液进行基体匹配的方法以消除基体干扰,利用氦碰撞模式进行测定以消除多原子离子⁴⁰Ar¹⁶O对⁵⁶Fe的质谱干扰,最终实现了ICP-MS对石灰性土壤中有效态Cu、Zn、Fe、Mn的测定。对氦气流量进行了优化,并确定氦气流量为4.5mL/min。在优化的实验条件下,Cu、Zn的质量浓度为5~200ng/mL、Fe的质量浓度为100~3000ng/mL、Mn的质量浓度为30~1000ng/mL时,各元素质量浓度分别与其计数值呈线性关系,相关系数均不小于0.9998。方法检出限为0.003~0.01mg/kg。按照实验方法测定土壤有效态成分分析标准物质中的有效态Cu、Zn、Fe、Mn,测定值与认定值一致,相对标准偏差(RSD)为1.3%~3.1%。采用实验方法和标准方法HJ 804—2016(电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱法)进行方法对照试验,二者测定值基本一致。     

Masking the Peroxidase-Like Activity of the Molybdenum Disulfide Nanozyme Enables Label-Free Lipase Detection

Two-dimensional MoS₂ nanoparticles (2D-nps) exhibit artificial enzyme properties that can be regulated at bio-nanointerfaces. We discovered that protein lipase is able to tune the peroxidase-like activity of MoS₂ 2D-nps, offering low-nanomolar, label-free detection and identification in samples with unknown identity. The inhibition of the peroxidase-like activity of the MoS₂ 2D-nps was demonstrated to be concentration dependent, and as low as 5 nm lipase was detected with this approach. The results were compared with those obtained with several other proteins that did not display any significant interference with the nanozyme behavior of the MoS₂ 2D-nps. This unique response of lipase was characterized and exploited for the successful identification of lipase in six unknown samples by using qualitative visual inspection and a quantitative statistical analysis method. The developed methodology in this approach is noteworthy for many aspects; MoS₂ 2D-nps are neither labeled with a signaling moiety nor modified with any ligands for signal readout. Only the intrinsic nanozyme activity of the MoS₂ 2D-nps is exploited for this detection approach. No analytical equipment is necessary for the visual detection of lipase. The synthesis of the water-soluble MoS₂ 2D-nps is low costing and can be performed in bulk scale. Exploring the properties of 2D-nps and their interactions with biological materials reveals highly interesting yet instrumental features that offer the development of novel bioanalytical approaches.

对钙化?酸浸提钒沉钒母液中锰资源的回收，一方面可以提升提钒工艺的经济效益，另一方面可避免母液循环时锰浓度不断累积而影响氧化钒产品质量，从而有助于实现母液闭路循环而提升全流程的环境效益。本工作提出了采用草酸沉淀法高效回收沉钒母液中的Mn2+，考察溶液体系pH值、草酸加量系数、反应温度和时间对锰回收率及沉淀产物物相组成的影响，以及草酸沉淀分离锰后母液的循环次数对钒浸出过程的影响。结果表明，草酸沉淀法可高效分离沉钒母液中的Mn2+，在溶液体系pH=4.0、草酸加量系数为1.5、反应温度为50℃、反应时间为60 min的条件下，锰回收率达94.33%，所得产物为纯度大于98%的水合草酸锰，为片状晶体，并呈花簇状生长。将脱锰后的沉钒母液循环至酸浸段，对钒浸出率及浸出液中锰的浓度没有明显影响，表明该方法有助于实现钙化?酸浸提钒中废水的闭路循环。
