Abstract
Herein, a novel ball milling-pyrolysis strategy was proposed for preparing a highly dispersed Ni3Fe nanoalloy catalyst (Ni3Fe@NC) used for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) electro-oxidation reaction. The Ni3Fe@NC delivered a high current density of 100 mA cm−2 at a low potential of 1.467 V vs RHE, with a HMF conversion rate of over 99.6 %, 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid (FDCA) selectivity of 97.1 % and a Faraday efficiency of 96.7 %. Theoretical calculations, in-situ EIS, quasi-in-situ XRD and XPS demonstrated that Fe-doping optimizes the electronic structure of Ni3Fe@NC and regulates its d-band center, which not only promoted the reconstruction of Ni3Fe@NC to form high-oxidation-activity Ni2+δ and Ni3+δ species but also reduced the reaction barrier of the key rate-determining step (*5-Hydroxymethyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (HMFCA)→*5-formyl-2-furancarboxylic acid (FFCA)) during HMFOR. Based on this interesting work, we provided a facile macroscopic preparation strategy on highly dispersed nanoalloy catalyst for efficient electro-oxidation of HMF.
期刊介绍:
The Chemical Engineering Journal is an international research journal that invites contributions of original and novel fundamental research. It aims to provide an international platform for presenting original fundamental research, interpretative reviews, and discussions on new developments in chemical engineering. The journal welcomes papers that describe novel theory and its practical application, as well as those that demonstrate the transfer of techniques from other disciplines. It also welcomes reports on carefully conducted experimental work that is soundly interpreted. The main focus of the journal is on original and rigorous research results that have broad significance. The Catalysis section within the Chemical Engineering Journal focuses specifically on Experimental and Theoretical studies in the fields of heterogeneous catalysis, molecular catalysis, and biocatalysis. These studies have industrial impact on various sectors such as chemicals, energy, materials, foods, healthcare, and environmental protection.
