Biodiesel plays a key role in achieving economy-wide decarbonization but its production discharges significant amounts of CO2 and glycerol-laden wastewater. Given the increasing abundance biodiesel wastewater low redox potential glycerol, coupling glycerol oxidation reaction (GOR) with electrolysis has emerged as an attractive strategy to achieve sustainable management, utilization, green chemical synthesis single unit process. Despite need for highly stable catalysts, few studies have examined electrocatalyst deactivation environmental waste streams. Here, we present first-of-a-kind diagnostic study that investigates nickel (Ni) catalyst stability during GOR synthetic wastewaters. A current decline 99.7% was observed within 24 h operation. This coincided 80% decrease surface active Ni(II)/Ni(III) concentrations, 190-fold increases interfacial impedance, appearance electrode C-bonds suggested coverage by reactants intermediates likely main contributor loss catalytic activity. Analyses more complex electrolytes containing methanol oleate emergence distinct mechanisms through restricted NiOOH formation. Altogether, this details several previously unreported mechanisms. These findings can ultimately help inform future design toward practical valorization.

Synchronous electrosynthesis of value-added adipic acid (AA) and H2 is extremely crucial for carbon neutrality. However, accomplishing the preparation AA at large current density with high selectivity still challenging. Herein, a robust Mo-doped Ni2P@Ni12P5 heterojunction more P vacancies on Ni foam proposed simultaneous electrooxidation cyclohexanol (CHAOR) to hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) density. Combined X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, absorption fine structure, electron spin resonance confirm that Mo incorporation induces charge redistribution Ni2P@Ni12P5, where adjusts electrons from P, triggers vacancies. Further experimental theoretical investigations reveal d-band center upshifted, optimizing adsorption energies water electron-rich site boosting HER activity. Besides, Ni3+ generated electron-deficient induced by Mo, alongside OH* triggered concurrently promote CHA dehydrogenation C─C bond cleavage, decreasing energy barrier CHAOR. Consequently, two-electrode flow electrolyzer achieves industrial (>230 mA cm-2) 85.7% yield, 100% Faradaic efficiency production. This study showcases an bifunctional electrocatalyst production productivity.
