Abstract
Excessive concentrations of nitrate (NO3-N) in water lead to the deterioration of water quality, reducing biodiversity and destroying ecosystems. Therefore, the present study investigated NO3-N removal from simulated wastewater by nanoscale zero-valent iron-supported ordered mesoporous Zr-Ce-SBA-15 composites (nZVI/Zr-Ce-SBA-15) assisted by response surface methodology (RSM), an artificial neural network combined with a genetic algorithm (ANN-GA) and a radial basis neural network (RBF). The successful support of nZVI on Zr-Ce-SBA-15 was confirmed using XRD, FTIR, TEM, SEM–EDS, N2 adsorption and XPS, which indicated ordered mesoporous materials. The results showed that ANN-GA was better than the RSM for optimizing the conditions of NO3-N removal and the RBF neural network further confirmed the reliability of the ANN-GA model. The removal rate of NO3-N by the composites reached 95.71% under the optimized experimental conditions (initial pH of 4.89, contact time = of 62.27 min, initial NO3-N concentration of 74.84 mg/L and temperature of 24.77 °C). The process of NO3-N adsorption onto Zr-Ce-SBA-15 composites was followed by the Langmuir model (maximum adsorption capacity of 45.24 mg/g), pseudo-second-order kinetics, and was spontaneous, endothermic and entropy driven. The yield of N2 can be improved after nZVI was supported on Zr-Ce-SBA-15, and the composites exhibited a strong renewability in the short term within three cycles. The resolution of Fe2+ experiments confirmed that nZVI/Zr-Ce-SBA-15 was simultaneously undergoing adsorption and catalysis in the process of NO3-N removal. Our study suggests that the ordered mesoporous nZVI/Zr-Ce-SBA-15 composites are a promising material for simultaneously performing NO3-N removal and improving the selectivity of N2, which provides a theoretical reference for NO3-N remediation from wastewater.

Abstract
Chlorinated volatile organic compounds (CVOCs), even in small quantities, can cause Pt-based catalyst poisoning. Improving the low-temperature chlorine resistance of catalysts is of vital importance for industrial application, although it remains challenging. Considering actual industrial production, a TiO2-supported ternary metal catalyst was prepared in this work to study the catalytic oxidation of multicomponent VOCs (toluene and trichloroethylene (TCE)). Among all of the samples, PtWRu/TiO2 and PtWCr/TiO2 exhibited the best catalytic performance for toluene oxidation. In the mixed VOC oxidation, the PtWCr/TiO2 sample showed the best catalytic activity for toluene combustion (a toluene conversion of 90% was achieved at 258 °C and a space velocity of 40,000 mL g−1 h−1, and the specific reaction rate and turnover frequency at 215 °C were 44.9 × 10−6 mol gPt−1 s−1 and 26.2 × 10−5 s−1). The PtWRu/TiO2 sample showed the best catalytic activity for TCE combustion (a TCE conversion of 90% was achieved at 305 °C and a space velocity of 40,000 mL g−1 h−1, and the specific reaction rate and turnover frequency at 270 °C were 9.0 × 10−6 mol gPt−1 s−1 and 7.3 × 10–5 s−1). We concluded that the ternary metal catalysts could greatly improve chlorine desorption by increasing the active lattice oxygen mobility and surface acidity, thus reducing chlorinated byproducts and other serious environmental pollutants. This work may serve as a reasonable design reference for solving more practical industrial production emissions of multicomponent VOCs.

Abstract
Fe2O3-based catalysts have promising potential in the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3 with the advantages of environmental friendliness, excellent medium-high SCR activity, good N2 selectivity, and high SO2 tolerance. However, the NH3-SCR mechanism over Fe2O3-based catalysts remains highly uncertain and controversial due to the complex nature of the SCR reaction. Herein, the NH3-SCR reaction pathways over the α-Fe2O3(012) surface are elucidated at the atomic level by density functional theory calculations and experimental measurements. We demonstrate that, different from the NH3 activation mechanism in numerous SCR catalytic systems, the reaction tends to follow the NO activation mechanism, in which NO activated at Fe sites reacts with NH3 to form a NH2NO intermediate and further decomposes into N2 and H2O, in synchronization with the formation of a surface OH group. Subsequently, the catalyst is regenerated by an O2-assisted surface-dehydrogenation process. The activation of NO as well as the formation of the NH2NO intermediate is the rate-determining step of the complete SCR cycle. This study enhances the atomic-level understanding toward the NH3-SCR reaction and provides insights for the development of Fe2O3-based SCR catalysts.

Abstract
The Ba-CMK-3(x) (x was the Ba(NO3)2:CMK-3 mass ratio and equals to 5, 10, and 15 wt%) samples were prepared by the incipient impregnation method, which were used for the adsorption of NO + O2 at room temperature. The samples were characterized by the XRD, BET, TEM, TPD, TG, and DRIFTS techniques. The results showed that the CMK-3 and Ba-CMK-3(x) samples possessed an ordered two-dimensional hexagonal mesoporous structure, and Ba was uniformly dispersed on the surface of CMK-3. After Ba doping, the surface areas and pore size distributions of the Ba-CMK-3(x) samples were altered due to the synergistic effect of partial blocking of the channels by Ba and partial etching of the carbon materials by O2 produced from Ba(NO2)3 decomposition at high temperatures. The sequence in NO adsorption capacity was Ba-CMK-3(10) (108.1 ± 0.55 mg/g) > Ba-CMK-3(15) (106.2 ± 0.72 mg/g) > Ba-CMK-3(5) (102.3 ± 1.33 mg/g) > CMK-3(88.8 ± 1.15 mg/g), with the Ba-CMK-3(10) sample showing the best (NO + O2) adsorption performance. We proposed the two main adsorption pathways in the process of NO adsorption: (i) NO reacted with O2 to form NO2, part of NO2 were weakly adsorbed on the surface hydroxyl groups, part of NO2 were adsorbed to form the nitrite and nitrate species, and the left NO2 was disproportionated to the NO, NO2-, and NO3- species; and (ii) NO was directly oxidized to the NO2- species by the oxygen-containing functional groups in carbon, and then some of the NO2- species were transformed to the NO3- species directly or via disproportionation. The regeneration efficiencies of the Ba-CMK-3(x) samples were slightly inferior to that of the CMK-3 sample.

Abstract
A series of Mn0.15Fe0.05/fly-ash catalysts have been synthesized by the co-precipitation method using coal fly ash (FA) as the catalyst carrier. The catalyst showed high catalytic activity for low-temperature selective catalytic reduction (LTSCR) of NO with NH3. The catalytic reaction experiments were carried out using a lab-scale fixed-bed reactor. De-NOx experimental results showed the use of optimum weight ratio of Mn/FA and Fe/FA, resulted in high NH3-SCR (selective catalytic reduction) activity with a broad operating temperature range (130–300 °C) under 50000 h−1. Various characterization methods were used to understand the role of the physicochemical structure of the synthesized catalysts on their De-NOx capability. The scanning electron microscopy, physical adsorption-desorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed the interaction among the MnOx, FeOx, and the substrate increased the surface area, the amount of high valence metal state (Mn4+, Mn3+, and Fe3+), and the surface adsorbed oxygen. Hence, redox cycles (Fe3+ + Mn2+ ↔ Mn3+ + Fe2+; Fe2+ + Mn4+ ↔ Mn3+ + Fe3+) were co-promoted over the catalyst. The balance between the adsorption ability of the reactants and the redox ability can promote the excellent NOx conversion ability of the catalyst at low temperatures. Furthermore, NH3/NO temperature-programmed desorption, NH3/NO- thermo gravimetric-mass spectrometry (NH3/NO-TG-MS), and in-situ DRIFTs (Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy) results showed the Mn0.15Fe0.05/FA has relatively high adsorption capacity and activation capability of reactants (NO, O2, and NH3) at low temperatures. These results also showed that the Langmuir–Hinshelwood (L–H) reaction mechanism is the main reaction mechanism through which NH3-SCR reactions took place. This work is important for synthesizing an efficient and environmentally-friendly catalyst and demonstrates a promising waste-utilization strategy.

Abstract
The fabrication of durable and low-cost nanostructured materials remains important in chemical, biologic and medicinal applications. Particularly, iron-based nanomaterials are of central importance due to the ‘noble’ features of iron such as its high abundance, low cost and non-toxicity. Herein we report a simple sol–gel method for the synthesis of novel iron–titanium nanocomposite-based material (Fe9TiO15@TiO2). In order to prepare this material, we made a polymeric gel using ferrocene, titanium isopropoxide and THF precursors. The calcination of this gel in air at 500 °C produced Fe-Ti bimetallic nanoparticles-based composite and nano-TiO2 as support. Noteworthy, our methodology provides an excellent control over composition, size and shape of the resulting nanoparticles. The resulted Fe-based material provides a sustainable catalyst for selective synthesis of anilines, which are key intermediates for the synthesis of several chemicals, dyes and materials, via reduction of structurally diverse and functionalized nitroarenes.
