Metal functionalization is an effective structure-engineering strategy for preparing biomass-derived carbon materials, whereas the influences of different metal precursors on the structure and catalytic performance remain unclear. Herein, an investigation of four typical cobalt salts for pyrolytic biomass conversion is performed. The melting points and anion species of cobalt salts are found to be critical factors. Co-salts (cobalt nitrate (Co(NO3)2), cobalt acetate (Co(OAc)2), cobalt acetylacetonate (Co(acac)2)) melted at low temperatures ( ≤ 165 °C) could promote mesopore formation and catalyze the graphitization process of a biomass flower during the carbonization, finally forming mesoporous graphitic carbon matrixes with Co@graphitic-C nanoparticles and …

Peroxymonosulfate-based advanced oxidation processes (PMS-AOPs) for in situ persistent organic pollutant (POP) remediation in aqueous solutions can be a promising technology. However, this technology is constrained by its high toxicity and cost of metal oxide and non-metal catalysts for PMS activation. Here, we investigated the catalytic performance of a widely available natural mineral, manganese ore (MO), for PMS activation. A series of natural MO samples in an aqueous solution were prepared via the Fenton-like reaction. The samples' crystalline structure, surface morphology, textural properties, and other surface characteristics of the selected MO were systematically characterized. The effects of PMS concentration and …
