◎Research Direction

[1] Conversion and utilization of reactive oxygen species

[2] Catalytic oxidation

We has been focusing on the directional transformation/utilization of reactive oxygen species and the process intensification in photocatalytic selective oxidation process. 1) Directional transformation and utilization of H₂O₂: Revealing the catalytic mechanism of the electron spin state on the metal active center for H₂O₂ decomposition, clarifying the influence of different metal species on H₂O₂ transformation path (H₂O₂ and • OH and O₂). It provides technical support for the liquefaction of low quality of natural gas and H₂O₂ decomposition under acid condition, which filled the domestic blank. 2) Directional conversion and utilization of O₂: Constructing efficient directional electron transfer and energy transfer paths to achieve the directional conversion of O₂→O₂^•- or ¹O₂, which lays a foundation for the selective oxidation with air for the preparation of fine chemicals.
