Combining urea oxidation reaction(UOR) with hydrogen evolution reaction(HER) is an effective method for energy saving and highly efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen production. Herein, molybdenumincorporated cobalt carbonate hydroxide nanoarrays(CoxMoyCH) are designed and synthesized as a bifunctional catalyst towards UOR and HER. Benefiting from the Mo doping, the dispersed nanoarray structure and redistributed electron density, the CoxMoyCH catalyst display outstanding catalytic performance and durability for both HER and UOR, affording the overpotential of 82 m V for HER and delivering a low potential of the 1.33 V for UOR(vs. reversible hydrogen electrode, RHE) to attain a current density of 10 m A cm^(-2), respectively. Remarkably, when CoxMoyCH was applied as bifunctional catalyst in a twoelectrode electrolyzer, a working voltage of 1.40 V is needed in urea-assisted water electrolysis at10 m A cm^(-2) and without apparent decline for 40 h, outperforming the working voltage of 1.51 V in conventional water electrolysis.

The dynamic analysis and optimal design of reactive extraction are challenging due to high nonlinearity of model equations and tough decision of judging criteria. In this work, a dynamic rate-based method is developed on g PROMS platform to get easy access to the solutions of reactive extraction with phase splitting. Based on rigorous criteria, dynamic analysis from initial state to final equilibrium(e.g., evolution of phase composition, mass transfer rate and reaction rate) and optimal design of operating conditions(e.g., extractant dosage and feed molar ratio) are achieved. To illustrate the method, the esterification of n-hexyl acetate is taken as an example. The approach proves to be reliable in the analysis and optimization of the exemplified system, which provides instructive reference for further process design and simulation of reactive extraction.

This review divides the acidic deep eutectic solvents(ADES) into Br?nsted and Lewis DES according to their diversity of acidic *** hydrogen bond donors and halide salts for formulating an ADES are classified, the synthesis methods are described, and the physicochemical properties including freezing point, acidity, density, viscosity and conductivity are presented. Furthermore, the applications of Br?nsted acidic deep eutectic solvents(BADES) and Lewis acidic deep eutectic solvents(LADES) are overviewed, respectively, covering the fields in dissolution, extraction, organic reaction and metal electrodeposition. It is expected that the ADES has great potential to replace the pollutional mineral acid, expensive and unstable solid acid, and costly ionic liquid in many acid-employed chemical processes, thus meeting the demands of green chemistry.
