Abstract Electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia (NO 3 RR) in a neutral medium is green and effective strategy for treating pollution meanwhile producing ammonia. However, the insufficient active hydrogen (H * ) on catalyst surface resulting from sluggish Volmer step 2 O → H + OH − ), competitive evolution reaction (HER) caused by coupling severely restrict enhancement of NO RR activity. Herein, hydration‐effect boosted ‐rich facilitating electrosynthesis proposed. The introduction hydration‐effect‐promoting element aluminum into copper‐based forming CuAlO , which adjusts electron density distribution system, significantly promotes generation medium. Moreover, rapid charge transfer at CuO/CuAlO interface facilitates kinetics diffusion. More importantly, Al weakens overly strong adsorption intermediates CuO, thereby accelerating hydrogenation process suppressing HER. Thus, under conditions, reached Faradaic efficiency an yield as high 97.81 ± 1.94% 10.21 0.64 mg h −1 cm −2 −1.0 V versus RHE toward RR.

Dual-mode harvest solar energy for photothermal Cu2-xSe biomineralization and seawater desalination by biotic-abiotic hybrid

Nature Communications, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 15(1)

Опубликована: Май 22, 2024

Abstract Biotic-abiotic hybrid photocatalytic system is an innovative strategy to capture solar energy. Diversifying energy conversion products and balancing photoelectron generation transduction are critical unravel the potential of photocatalysis. Here, we harvest in a dual mode for Cu 2-x Se nanoparticles biomineralization seawater desalination by integrating merits Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 biogenic nanoparticles. Photoelectrons generated extracellular 0 power synthesis through two pathways that either cross outer membrane activate periplasmic Cu(II) reduction or directly delivered into space Cu(I) evolution. Meanwhile, photoelectrons drive reversing MtrABC complexes S. . Moreover, unique photothermal feature as-prepared nanoparticles, natural hydrophilicity, linking properties bacterium offer convenient way tailor membranes water production. This study provides paradigm source sink diversifying biotic-abiotic platforms.

Growth of electroautotrophic microorganisms using hydrovoltaic energy through natural water evaporation

Nature Communications, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 15(1)

Опубликована: Июнь 11, 2024

Abstract It has been previously shown that devices based on microbial biofilms can generate hydrovoltaic energy from water evaporation. However, the potential of as an source for growth remained unexplored. Here, we show electroautotrophic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris directly utilize evaporation-induced electrons within through extracellular electron uptake, with a strong reliance carbon fixation coupled nitrate reduction. We obtained similar results two other bacterial species. Although conversion efficiency is low compared to processes such photosynthesis, hypothesize may potentially contribute survival and in energy-limited environments, given ubiquity evaporation conditions.
