    Abstract The storage of renewable energy is crucial for the substitution of fossil fuels with renewable energy. Hydrogen is the first step in the conversion of electricity from renewable sources to an energy carrier. However, hydrogen is technically and economically challenging to store, but can be converted with CO₂ from the atmosphere or oceans to hydrocarbons. The heterogeneously catalyzed gas phase reaction and the electrochemical CO₂ reduction are reviewed and the application of a new type of reactor is described. The mechanism of the gas phase CO₂ reduction on a heterogeneous catalyst is shown in detail and the function of the supported catalyst is explained. Finally, an economic estimation on the cost of synthetic methane is presented which leads to a cost of 0.3 CHF/kWh in CH₄.

    Abstract Ni- and Co-based catalysts with added Fe demonstrate promising activity in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) during alkaline water electrolysis, with the presence of Fe in a certain quantity being crucial for their enhanced performance. The mode of incorporation, local placement, and structure of Fe ions in the host catalyst, as well as their direct/indirect contribution to enhancing the OER activity, remain under active investigation. Herein, the mechanism of Fe incorporation into a Co-based host was investigated using an in situ synthesized Co-Fe catalyst in an alkaline electrolyte containing Co

    Abstract High-energy-density and low-cost calcium (Ca) batteries have been proposed as 'beyond-Li-ion' electrochemical energy storage devices. However, they have seen limited progress due to challenges associated with developing electrolytes showing reductive/oxidative stabilities and high ionic conductivities. This paper describes a calcium monocarborane cluster salt in a mixed solvent as a Ca-battery electrolyte with high anodic stability (up to 4 V vs. Ca

    Abstract Indium-based catalysts exhibit excellent performance for CO₂ hydrogenation to methanol, yet their nature and chemical evolution under reaction conditions are still elusive, thus hindering an understanding of their reaction mechanism. In this work, near ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (NAP-XPS) is employed to investigate the chemical properties and the catalytic role of indium/copper model catalysts under CO₂ hydrogenation conditions. We found that the deposition of In on the surface of a Cu foil led to the formation of Cu-In alloy, whereas upon CO₂ exposure, In was partially oxidized to In₂O₃₋ₓ and Cu remains metallic. Due to the presence of In₂O₃₋ₓ, CO₂ was activated on the surface of In/Cu samples mainly in the form of carbonate. In addition, compared with the pure In foil reference, both the fraction of oxygen vacancies and the coverage density of carbonate were higher on the In/Cu samples, indicating the promotion effect of Cu-In alloy in the activation of CO₂. These results reveal the evolution of the active sites of indium/copper catalysts and inspire the design of advanced In-based bimetallic catalysts for CO₂ hydrogenation.

    Abstract Nanoparticles (NPs) have wide applications in physical and chemical processes, and their individual properties (e.g., shape, size, and composition) and ensemble properties (e.g., distribution and homogeneity) can significantly affect the performance. However, the extrapolation of information from a single particle to the ensemble remains a challenge due to the lack of suitable techniques. Herein, we report a high-throughput single-particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (SP-ICP-MS)-based protocol to simultaneously determine the size, count, and elemental makeup of several thousands of (an)isotropic NPs independent of composition, size, shape, and dispersing medium with atomistic precision in a matter of minutes. By introducing highly diluted nebulized aqueous dispersions of NPs directly into the plasma torch of an ICP-MS instrument, individual NPs are atomized and ionized, resulting in ion plumes that can be registered by the mass analyzer. Our proposed protocol includes a phase transfer step for NPs synthesized in organic media, which are otherwise incompatible with ICP-MS instruments, and a modeling tool that extends the measurement of particle morphologies beyond spherical to include cubes, truncated octahedra, and tetrahedra, exemplified by anisotropic Cu NPs. Finally, we demonstrate the versatility of our method by studying the doping of bulk-dilute (<1 at. %) CuAg nanosurface alloys as well as the ease with which ensemble composition distributions of multimetallic NPs (i.e., CuPd and CuPdAg) can be obtained providing different insights in the chemistry of nanomaterials. We believe our combined protocol could deepen the understanding of macroscopic phenomena involving nanoscale structures by bringing about a statistics renaissance in research areas including, among others, materials science, materials chemistry, (nano)physics, (nano)photonics, catalysis, and electrochemistry.
