Lithium sulfur batteries(LSBs) have attracted considerable attention as promising next-generation energy storage devices due to their high theoritical energy density.Although the electrochemical performance of LSBs has been significantly enhanced over the past decade,most of their test condition is based on excessive electrolyte usage.High electrolyte usage not only increases the manufacturing cost of batteries but also reduces their actual energy density,Which is detrimental to commercial applications of LSBs.Therefore,it is especially critical to develop LSBs that combine low electrolyte usage with excellent electrochemical performance.The challenges faced by LSBs under lean electrolyte conditions were outlined and the approaches based on sulfur electrode design to reduce electrolyte usage were discussed in detail:1)optimizing electrode porosity and ion conduction to shorten the transport path of lithium ions and enhance their conductivity;2)introducing meta-based or nonmetallic-based catalysis to enhance the reaction kinetics of active materials under lean electrolyte conditions;3)developing novel active materials to avoid the degradation of battery performance caused by the large amount of lithium polysulfides dissolved in the electrolyte under lean electrolyte conditions.Finally,the perspectives on further optimizing the design of sulfur cathode to develop high-energy-density LSBs with lean electrolyte were proposed.

In recent years,the application of lithium-ion batteries has seen explosive growth in various fields,and almost every field has placed higher demands on the energy density of lithium-ion batteries to meet the ever-increasing demand for power and energy storage.Nevertheless,during the initial charge/discharge cycle of a lithium-ion battery,a solid electrolyte interface(SEI) film forms on the surface of the anode,resulting in the depletion of active lithium ions in the cathode materials.This phenomenon leads to an irreversible loss of battery capacity and a reduction in the first-time coulombic efficiency of the battery.Research has demonstrated that the pre-lithiation technique represents a viable solution to the issue at hand.The findings indicate that pre-lithiation of the cathode confers greater benefits than pre-lithiation of the anode.The common lithium replenishment technologies were mainly described,such as binary lithium-containing compounds,ternary lithium-containing compounds and organic lithium salts,etc.The progress of cathode pre-lithiation additive materials in optimising performance was also reviewed.It was pointed out that there were some urgent problems to be solved,and looked forward to the future of pre-lithiation technology.

Calcium silicate hydrate(CSH) is a kind of important heavy metal adsorbent,which plays an important role in both natural self-purification process and artificial environmental purification and restoration.Functionalization of CSH adsorbent for Fe3+ adsorption can achieve reduction and detoxification of heavy metal Cr(Ⅵ).Firstly,CSH was prepared by extracting steel slag filtrate from an acid leaching process as the Ca source and Na2SiO3·9H2O as the Si source.The resulting CSH was used to adsorb Fe3+ metal ions by ion exchange and electrostatic attraction.Subsequently,by using thiourea as S source,the CSH adsorbent loaded by Fe3+ was hydrothermally transformed into xFeS@CSH(x was the initial concentration of Fe3+,mg/L).When the mass concentration of Fe3+ was 150 mg/L,150FeS@CSH sample possessed the best Cr(Ⅵ) reduction property.When pH=2,the reduction conversion rate of Cr(Ⅵ) (10 mg/L,60 mL) could reach 100% after 4 minutes of reaction.Meanwhile,by adjusting the pH of the solution and reaction time(pH=3,reaction time of 30 min),Cr(Ⅲ) fixation and total Cr removal could also be achieved.The active FeS phase achieved Cr(Ⅵ) reduction,and with the increase of solution pH,the reduction product Cr(Ⅲ) was fixed on the material surface in the form of Cr(OH)3,Cr2O3,etc.

The direct regeneration of deeply deactivated ternary cathode materials can effectively reduce energy consumption and alleviate environmental burdens,achieving clean recycling and reuse of lithium-ion batteries. However,it has been found that the direct regeneration of materials dismantled often has poor effects. Therefore,research on the characteristic analysis and pretreatment of deeply deactivated ternary cathode materials from retired lithium-ion batteries was conducted. A systematic study of the deactivated cathode materials using various characterization techniques showed that the deeply deactivated ternary cathode materials contained a significant amount of binder PVDF,conductive carbon black,and salt impurities,and their crystal structure was severely damaged. Moreover,electrochemical results showed that the specific capacity was only 30 mA·h/g,which was far below that of commercial material,indicating a significant degradation in battery capacity. In order to effectively regenerate the ternary cathode materials,a high-temperature calcination pretreatment for impurity removal was carried out in an oxygen atmosphere. Calcination at 550 ℃ for 4 h could completely remove conductive carbon black and other impurity components from the deactivated cathode materials,without significantly affecting the composition and structure of the materials,thus laying the foundation for subsequent processing such as direct regeneration.

Emulsified oil is more difficult to be removed because of its small particle size and difficult to be agglomerated.Coagulation is widely used in the treatment of emulsified oil.However,the traditional iron and aluminum salt coagulants produce small flocs and have slow generation rate,which make it difficult to realize the rapid separation of oil and water,resulting in poor deep oil removal effect.The new titanium salt coagulant is expected to solve the application problem of iron aluminum salt coagulant due to its outstanding coagulation performance.In this paper,a new type of titanium gel coagulant(TXC) for the treatment of oily wastewater was evaluated by using four kinds of simulated emulsified oil water,such as lubricating oil,soybean oil,petroleum ether and diesel oil,and choosing polyferric sulfate(PFS) and polyaluminum chloride(PAC) as the control.The results showed that TXC had better coagulation effect on emulsified oil wastewater than PFS and PAC.Taking lubricating oil as an example,in the initial pH range of 3~11,dosage of 1~60 mg/L and oil content of 500~2 000 mg/L,the oil removal rate of TXC was up to 91.526%.It was better than PFS and PAC.The turbidity of the oil-bearing wastewater after TXC coagulation was less than 1 NTU,and the particle size of the oil was the smallest,which indicated that TXC had the application potential of deep oil removal.The results of floc characterization showed that TXC mainly removed oil by net sweeping,and because of its large floc size,it was easier to remove small particle size oil droplets.The research results provided new ideas for the treatment of oily wastewater,especially emulsified oil wastewater.

Carbon dioxide electrocatalytic reduction(CO2RR) technology which converts CO2 into fuel and high value⁃added chemicals is one of the effective ways to alleviate the current resources,environment,and many other problems.Among numerous products of CO2RR,ethanol has a relatively high energy density and economic value.However,due to the complex elementary process,and it is affected by the mass transfer and by⁃product hydrogen evolution,the process of CO2RR⁃to⁃ethanol is often accompanied by a series of problems such as high potential,low reaction,and low selectivity.Therefore,the current design ideas of CO2RR to ethanol catalytic system and the research progress of catalytic materials by using the “tandem process” of system coupling,the “tandem reaction” of active site coupling,and the “synergy reaction” that highlights the “electronic effect”,“strain effect” and “confinement effect” were reviewed.It was proposed that “tandem catalysis” and “synergy catalysis” were the two main strategies for the design of electrocatalytic systems at present.It was also suggested that mechanism⁃based catalysts design was the key to improving the performance of CO2RR to ethanol process under different electrocatalytic strategies.

The crystallization of potassium salts in high-potassium-content liquid fertilizer at relatively low temperature is closely related to the solubility of potassium salt.In this study,the liquid-solid equilibrium data of KH2PO4-KNO3-H2O at the low temperature of 278.15 K and 288.15 K,and that of KH2PO4-KCl-H2O at 278.15 K were measured using the isothermal dissolution equilibrium method,and the data was plotted in the phase diagrams with specified crystallization regimes.The results showed that the two systems were simple co-saturated and no double salt or solid solution forms.In two systems,the solubility of potassium salts was increased with the increase of temperature,and according to phase diagrams the K2O content of co-saturated point was maximum at 278.15 K and 288.15 K.Based on the content requirement of macro-nutrition,highlighted in the NY 1106—2010 standard,the formula of the high-potassium-content liquid fertilizer was analyzed,using the solid-liquid equilibrium data.The results showed that,it was often difficult at the ambient temperature regions,and was not viable at the low temperature regions to meet the required NPK content by only using KH2PO4 and KNO3.The formulas of the liquid fertilizer were designed by adding liquid ammonium polyphosphate(APP) to increase NPK content,the results were validated by experiment.This study could provide reference for the formula design of liquid fertilizer in potassium salt system at low temperature.

Lithium-ion battery is considered as the most convenient and effective energy storage equipment due to its high energy density and long cycle life.In order to improve the stability and safety of lithium-ion batteries,solid-state electrolytes have been widely studied.However,pure polymer electrolytes have the drawbacks of lower ionic conductivity,narrow operating voltage window,which hindered their applications in all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries.PEO-based composite electrolytes are the most promising class of electrolyte systems due to their advantages of easy processing,low cost,and good interfacial contact.Based on this,composite solid electrolytes were introduced basicly and the ionic conduction mechanism of PEO-based electrolytes was discussed,and then the relevant research results in recent years according to the different geometries of inorganic fillers,such as nanoparticles,nanowires/nanotubes,two-dimensional lamellar materials,and 3D skeleton structures were reviewed.The effects of inorganic fillers with different geometries on the performance of electrolytes,especially ionic conductivity,and the cycling performance of the full battery were elaborated.Finally,the key issues and development of composite solid-state electrolytes were summarized.
