💡NH3 decomposition! @NatChemEng We introduce a W-wire lightbulb reactor that operates at unconventionally high temperatures while maintaining enhanced efficiency, enabling NH3 decomposition w/ rate constants much higher than those of leading catalysts. doi.org/10.1038/s44286…

♻️Biomass upcycling! We report a mechanochemical “top-down” route that directly converts cellulosic biomass into oligomeric glycosylamine surfactants, offering a convenient and scalable platform for producing multifunctional biobased surfactants. pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…


⚛️Single-atom catalysis for NH3 combustion (CAC) in @Joule_CP! We demonstrate high-temperature CAC using atomically dispersed Pt on a refractory support, which maintains stability at 1,100°C, and achieves low NOx emissions without NH3 slip. More below⬇️ cell.com/joule/fulltext…


It is a great honor to receive the Outstanding Graduate Mentor Award at this year’s NUS University Awards! This award is truly a result of the hard work and dedication of all past and present students. Special thanks to all collaborators and past mentors as well! 💐 Photo: NUS

@Ning_Yan_Lab @MseNus Single atom catalysts are incredible. We use them to "flamelessly" and cleanly burn ammonia at 1100°C — a catalytic solution to improve combustibility and emission-control for potential NH3 fuel. Limited-time free access at 🔗 authors.elsevier.com/a/1lN5g925JEVN…


⚛️Single-atom catalysis with Prof. Kian Ping Loh! We underscore vacancy-enriched 1T′-MoS2 as a versatile platform for high-density SAC deposition, enabling on-demand structural reconfiguration & offering tailored catalyst design in electrosynthesis! ⚡️ doi.org/10.1038/s41565…


🎙️Round Table with @Nature Portfolio Editors! APCAT-10 & ISSAC-4 will host senior editors from @NatureCatalysis, @NatChemEng, & @NatureNano 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!

💡Photocatalysis! @J_A_C_S 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…


⛽️Ammonia economy with @QianHe_Lab! We review critical downstream catalytic processes for an NH3 economy, highlighting the barriers and challenges in two of the critical catalytic processes, namely ammonia decomposition and catalytic ammonia combustion! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
