Mercury pollution in flue gas from coal-fired power plants will seriously harm the ecological
environment and biological safety. The flue gas is often accompanied by acid gases (SO2 …

Water supplies contaminated with heavy metals are a worldwide concern. MXenes have
properties that make them attractive for the removal of metal ions from water. This work …

In this work, we study the adsorption properties of N2, H2, O2, NO, NO2, CO, CO2, and SO2
on a Sc2CO2 monolayer based on first-principles calculations from density functional theory …

Herein, we present a first-principles study of the effects of electric field and biaxial strain on
the adsorption properties of Sc 2 CO 2 monolayer in respect of O 2, SO 2, NO, and NO 2 …

Porous modified polyacrylonitrile (PAN) with an ultrahigh percentage of amidoxime groups
(UAPAN) was synthesized for the first time and used to adsorb antimonite (Sb (III)) and …

Developing highly active catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction based on earth-abundant
materials is challenging. Nitrogen doping has recently been reported to improve catalytic …

The rational design of ideal catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is of great
significance for solving the electrocatalytic potential problems in proton exchange …
