Designing a high-performance gas sensor to efficiently detect the hazardous NH3 molecule is beneficial to air monitoring and pollution control. In this work, the first-principles calculations were employed to investigate the adsorption structures, electronic characteristics, and gas sensing properties of the pristine and B-, N-, P-, Al-, and Si-doped penta-graphene (PG) toward the NH3, H2S, and SO2 molecules. The results indicate that the pristine PG is insensitive to those toxic gases due to the weak adsorption strength and long adsorption distance. Nevertheless, the doping of B, N, Al, and Si (B and Al) results in the transition of NH3 (H2S and SO2) adsorption from physisorption to chemisorption, which is primarily ascribed to the large charge transfer and strong orbital hybridizations between gas molecules and doping atoms. In addition, NH3 adsorption leads to the remarkable variation of electrical conductivity for the B-, N-, and Si-doped PG, and the adsorption strength of NH3 on the B-, N-, and Si-doped PG is larger than that of H2S and SO2. Moreover, the chemically adsorbed NH3 molecule on the N-, B-, and Si-doped PG can be effectively desorbed by injecting electrons into the systems. Those results shed light on the potential application of PG-based nanosheets as reusable gas sensors for NH3 detection.

A systematic modeling approach was scrutinized to develop a kinetic model and a novel monolith channel geometry was designed for NH3 selective catalytic reduction (NH3-SCR) over Cu-ZSM-5. The redox characteristic of Cu-based catalysts and the variations of NH3, NOx concentration, and NOx conversion along the axis in porous media channels were studied. The relative pressure drop in different channels, the variations of NH3 and NOx conversion efficiency were analyzed. The model mainly considers NH3 adsorption and desorption, NH3 oxidation, NO oxidation, and NOx reduction. The results showed that the model could accurately predict the NH3-SCR reaction. In addition, it was found that the Cu-based zeolite catalyst had poor low-temperature catalytic performance and good high-temperature activity. Moreover, the catalytic reaction of NH3-SCR was mainly concentrated in the upper part of the reactor. In addition, the hexagonal channel could effectively improve the diffusion rate of gas reactants to the catalyst wall, reduce the pressure drop and improve the catalytic conversion efficiencies of NH3 and NOx.

In a resorption heat pump, the adsorption and desorption reaction of ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) with ammonia (NH3) is of interest as a Low Temperature Salt (LTS). Reviewing previously published NH4Cl-NH3 equilibrium lines, ammonium chloride appears to offer useable working temperatures (50–70 °C) in the 10–15 bar pressure range during the adsorption reaction, and provides beneficial working conditions for the desorption reaction, when compared with alternative LTS candidates at atmospheric pressure. The NH4Cl-NH3 adsorption and desorption reactions, using a NH4Cl composite salt, have been evaluated under dynamic ‘real-world’ conditions in a Large Temperature Jump (LTJ) experimental testing rig; although there are concerns with mass transfer characteristics, the salt exhibits no hysteresis between the adsorption and desorption reactions, contrary to previous literature. The experimentally obtained equilibrium line values for the reaction enthalpy and entropy are 29,835 J/mol and 207 J/(mol∙K), respectively. Using a semi-empirical model, the NH4Cl composite salt has been successfully characterised, enabling the prediction of salt reaction behaviour. The model constants, A and n, identified are 4.5 and 5 for adsorption and 5 and 4 for desorption, with an overall salt active fraction (applicable to both reactions) of 0.98. Overall, the working equilibrium line and the dynamic performance of ammonium chloride has been investigated and the applicability of NH4Cl as a LTS for a resorption heat pump determined.

In this study the pyrolysis of Norway spruce cones, a lignocellulosic biomass was made. The biochar product was obtained by means of the physical activation method. CO2 was used as the activating gas. The surface properties of biochars were characterized by the nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDS), X-ray fluorescence energy dispersion spectroscopy (ED-XRF), thermal analysis (TGA/DTA), infrared spectroscopy (ATR FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy and the Boehm’s titration method as well as the point of zero charge (pHpzc). The adsorption capacity and the possibility of ammonia desorption (TPD) were also examined. It has been shown that spruce cones can be successfully used as a cheap precursor of well-developed surface biochars, characterized by a large pore volume and good sorption properties. All obtained activated biochars exhibit a largely microporous structure and an acidic character surface. The investigated activated materials have the specific surface areas from 112 to 1181 m2 g−1. The maximum NH3 adsorption capacity of the activated biochar was determined to be 5.18 mg g−1 (88.22 mmol g−1) at 0 °C. These results indicate the applicability of spruce cones as a cheap precursor for the sustainable production of the cost-effective and environmentally friendly biochar adsorbent.
