Methane pyrolysis (CH4 → 2H2 + C) presents a promising pathway for low CO2 emission H2 and solid carbon material production. This opinion article focuses on recent research progress in the past 3 years (2022–2024) on this topic, focusing on potential energy applications of carbon materials. Innovative CH4 pyrolysis processes using solid catalysts, molten liquid catalysts, and new energy delivery methods were first described. Next, representative studies exploring carbon materials' energy conversion and storage applications were highlighted. Lastly, challenges and opportunities for future studies were proposed.

The Haber-Bosch process, the dominant process for industrial ammonia production, is highly energy-intensive and a major source of carbon emissions. Plasma and electrocatalysis offer viable and promising alternatives for nitrogen reduction reactions, especially when integrated with intermittent renewable electricity. However, relying solely on plasma or electrocatalysis for direct N₂ reduction presents significant challenges. Plasma technology suffers from low conversion efficiency and high energy consumption. Similarly, electrocatalysis encounters challenges with low yield and Faradaic efficiency, primarily due to the low solubility of nitrogen gas and interference of the competing hydrogen evolution reaction. A tandem process combining plasma synthesis of NOx (a mixture of NO and NO2) with the electrochemical NOx reduction reaction (eNOx−RR) can effectively use NOx as an intermediate, thereby significantly reducing the difficulty of N2 activation in plasma and enhancing the Faradaic efficiency of the subsequent electrocatalytic process. This promising solution has great potential to dramatically enhance the ammonia synthesis rate, making the tandem process a compelling technology for sustainable and decentralized ammonia synthesis under mild conditions. This review provides an insightful overview of the tandem plasma-electrocatalytic process, illustrating the reported methods for plasma-driven nitrogen activation to nitrogen oxides and discussing the recent advances and challenges in eNOx−RR, with a particularly focus on developing efficient electrocatalysts. Additionally, we discuss the systemic challenges of integrating these two processes, highlighting the importance of process optimization and the potential for ammonia production. The techno-economic and environmental impacts of the tandem process are also evaluated and compared to the Haber-Bosch process, providing insights into future development pathways for this innovative approach.

Over the last decade, plasma catalysis has attracted considerable research attention as an emerging low-carbon technology. In plasma catalysis, stable molecules such as CO2, CH4, and N2 are activated by electron impact or electrical energy, thereby ushering in a low-temperature chemistry domain that departs from energy-intensive, heat-dependent systems. Moreover, renewable-energy-driven plasma technologies are expected to help realize power-to-X schemes. In this short review, fluidized bed (FB) reactors incorporated with dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) are explored as potential candidates for upscaling plasma catalysis systems without employing a numbering-up approach. To that end, a scaled-up FB-DBD reactor is conceptualized using CO2 methanation as a model reaction, followed by the validation of laboratory-scale FB-DBD reactors, which exhibit remarkably high feed gas conversion rates at temperatures lower than those of thermal catalysis units. Finally, certain salient conclusions and perspectives are presented.

“Ancestral cuisine” is a reflection from the regenerative agriculture to the culinary, to exemplify the integral relationships between nature and culture, based on the food preparation and consumption practices of indigenous and peasant populations. Socio-scientific studies were taken as a reference, and other secondary sources around the Amazon, especially in northern Peru, Colombia, and Brazil, where conventional monoculture food systems coexist with more traditional forms of food production and consumption. Based mainly on the experiences of women cooks, their culinary and the knowledge transmission, we review and discuss the social technologies and the chemical processes involved, as a starting point of food sustainability criteria to contribute to the ontological shift in the human-nature relationship.

(Bio)catalysis creates waste, composed of wastewater and an organic fraction. Different metrics are used for the environmental impact of processes, being E-Factor and process mass intensity (PMI) the prominent ones. These metrics are typically applied to wastewater and spent organic fraction, which is the process “Primary Waste.” However, “Primary Waste” is industrially treated before it is released to the environment. When treating “Primary Waste,” CO2 is generated, from the wastewater treatment plant and from the organic fraction incineration. That CO2, coined as “Secondary Waste,” remains in the planet and thus should be the target for environmental assessments. When E-Factor and PMI calculated from “Primary Waste” are compared to the values of produced CO2, results mismatch because the CO2 depends on the proportion wastewater/organic fraction since incineration leads to higher CO2 production than wastewater treatment. Sustainable options for (bio)catalysis would be process intensification, incorporating renewable energy and biogenic solvents (neutral carbon), and developing (new) wastewater treatment strategies to deliver pure(r) water effluents to the environment.

This mini-review highlights how many of the principles of green chemistry can be used to make polymers more sustainable. The use of renewable feedstocks has grown enormously in the recent years including the use of bio-derived monomers and modifications of natural polymers such as carbohydrates. Polymers are also being designed to allow entry into the circular economy especially where triggered depolymerization (e.g. catalytic recycling to monomer) can occur, which can allow easy separation from other plastics in a mixed waste stream. Computational studies and reaction monitoring are useful in identifying and understanding reactivity trends for polymer synthesis and degradation. Solvent-free reactions, including mechanochemistry, can be employed to reduce process mass intensity and environmental impacts. Use of standard polymer degradation conditions (e.g. ISO standards) and life-cycle assessments, in particular hot spot analyses, should be encouraged in order to accelerate progress in this important field.

Decarbonizing the chemical industry requires process electrification. Non-thermal plasmas present an electrification alternative to fossil fuel-based thermal chemistry due to their modularity, fast dynamics, and compatibility with renewable energy sources. Their most remarkable quality is the non-equilibrium state between molecules and high-energy electrons, enabling molecular activation at mild conditions. Unlike chemical manufacturing constrained by thermal activation, limiting feedstock options and necessitating multistep processes, plasma electron impact excitation can open direct (one step) chemical synthesis. We highlight the potential of plasmas from the perspective of process-chemistry intensification.

Electrochemical reduction of nitrate (NO3−) to ammonia (NH3) (the e-NO3RR) is one of the most widely discussed methods to remediate the NO3− concentrations found in industrial and agricultural wastewater. The growing importance of NH3 stems from its central role in fertilizer and advanced chemical production and as an emerging renewable hydrogen carrier due to its excellent hydrogen ratio and liquefiability.
This review highlights how the active facets of copper (Cu), the most widely documented electrocatalyst for e-NO3RR, and its alloys transform NO3− to NH3. The literature findings on Faradaic efficiency and the NH3 formation rate in connection with the Cu facet, Cu oxide, and Cu alloys are discussed, followed by a discussion of the potential opportunities of the e-NO3RR. We hope this review will provide helpful information to facilitate the design of the next generation of electrocatalysts.

With increasingly available renewable sources of electricity, plasma catalysis could be a key component in the decarbonization of natural gas and greenhouse gas valorization. Fundamental insight is needed in both the coupling of plasma and catalytic chemistries, and in chemical limitations and opportunities of such coupled systems to enable larger scale engineering and optimization. This perspective describes some of the pressing needs and high-impact opportunities present in the current research landscape of plasma catalysis for light hydrocarbons.
