Highly efficient and recyclable Ni MOF-derived N-doped magnetic mesoporous carbon-supported palladium catalysts for the hydrodechlorination of chlorophenols

Ni MOF-derived N-doped magnetic mesoporous carbon-supported Pd nanoparticles (Pd/Ni-mCN) were prepared and used in the hydrodechlorination (HDC) of chlorophenols (CPs) water pollutants with H2 at mild reaction conditions. The Pd/Ni-mCN catalyst was characterized in detail by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption/desorption, and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM)....
