Abstract
As the only renewable organic carbon source, abundant biomass has long been established and developed to mass-produce functionalized carbon materials. Herein, an extremely facile and green strategy was executed for the first time to in situ construct K-Fe3C@C nanohybrids directly by one-pot carbonizing the pomelo peel impregnated with Fe(NO3)3 solutions. The pyrolytically self-assembled nanohybrids were successfully applied in Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) and demonstrated high catalytic performance. Accordingly, the optimized K-Fe3C@C catalysts revealed excellent FTS activity (92.6% CO conversion) with highlighted C5+ hydrocarbon selectivity of 61.3% and light olefin (C2-4=) selectivity of 26.0% (olefin/paraffin (O/P) ratio of 6.2). Characterization results further manifest that the high performance was correlated with the in situ formation of the core-shell nanostructure consisting of Fe3C nanoparticles enwrapped by graphitized carbon shells and the intrinsic potassium promoter originated in pomelo peel during high-temperature carbonization. This work provided a facile approach for the low-cost mass-fabrication of high-performance FTS catalysts directly utilizing waste biomass without any chemical pre-treatment or purification.

Abstract
Hydrothermal instability restricts performances of silica-based catalysts, which have wide applications in both industry and environment. For the first time, plasma-thermal slag was revealed to be a catalyst with a born hydrothermal stability in selective catalytic reduction of nitric oxide. The slag catalyst removed 98.5 % of NO with a high N2 selectivity (> 95 %) at 200 °C. After a hydrothermal treatment at 900 °C, the activity of the slag only decreased to 84.0 %. According to characterizations of XRD, HTREM, XPS, and EPR, active metals existed in coordination states in the slag at first. Under hydrothermal conditions, these species transformed to short-range single crystals, which were hindered from sintering by surrounded Si-O bands. At the same time, in-situ DRIFT indicated that more Brønsted and Lewis acid sites were formed. Hence, enough active sties were reserved for effective catalytic reduction of nitric oxide. The main result of this work helps us to understand hydrothermal stability of a catalyst. What's more, the high-value-added utilization of plasma-thermal slag is in favor of the development of hazardous-waste treatment.
