🚨Conference details! This year, APCAT-10 will be held in conjunction with the 4th International Symposium on Single-Atom Catalysis (ISSAC-4)! 🇸🇬 I am honored to chair ISSAC-4 alongside Javier Perez-Ramirez and Prof. Tao Zhang! apcat10.com Details and speaker lineup ⬇️



⚡️Electrosynthesis of nitriles! We report the direct electrosynthesis of nitriles from primary alcohols and ammonia, with a simple Ni catalyst under benign conditions in aqueous electrolytes. The work is highlighted in Green Chemistry as the front cover! 🖼️ pubs.rsc.org/en/content/art…


♻️Surfactants from woody biomass! We introduce a “top-down” mechanochemical strategy to produce oligosaccharide-derived surfactants via partial alcoholysis directly from cellulose and even raw biomass! ACS Publications More below! ⬇️ pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…

Please follow our official X page for APCAT-10 in conjunction with ISSAC-4 for all relevant conference information! 10th Asia-Pacific Congress on Catalysis See you all in 🇸🇬 this coming August!

♻️Plastic conversion! Our collaborative work with Prof. Paul Dyson on polyurethane depolymerization is now online in Nature Communications! Herein, the conversion of model carbamate compounds with high yield of aniline products is achieved using a CeO2 catalyst! rdcu.be/enSzP


🔋Ammonia decomposition! ACS Catalysis We demonstrate incorporation of Li species enhances the NH3 decomposition rate of a Co-based catalyst by up to 5-fold at 623 K and achieves nearly the best low-temperature activity among reported Ru-free catalysts! pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…


💡Photocatalysis! J. Am. Chem. Soc. We develop a dual-interface built-in electric field (BIEF) regulation strategy to synthesize bifunctional ZnS/Sv-chalcogenide/Ti3C2 heterostructure photocatalysts, providing a programmable framework for manipulating BIEFs! pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…

⚡️Electrocatalysis Symposium! It is quite the pleasure to introduce the keynote lecturers for the APCAT-10 Electrocatalysis Symposium! The speaker lineup includes top experts in electrocatalysis! Chuan Zhao Bingjun Xu + more! Registration information ⬇️


🎙️Round Table with nature Portfolio Editors! APCAT-10 & ISSAC-4 will host senior editors from Nature Catalysis, Nature Chemical Engineering, & Nature Nanotechnology in 🇸🇬 on Aug-4 at 6pm for a round table discussion! Join us as we discuss the latest trends in catalysis publishing, tips, + much more!
