Abstract

In the field of biotechnology, nano-catalyst, by virtue of their size effect, high specific surface area and modifiability, can effectively treat infectious diseases, intervene in neurodegenerative diseases, delay the progress of cardiovascular diseases, repair and regenerate bone and skin, and solve the problems such as drug resistance, targeting, and biocompatibility of traditional therapies by catalyzing the generation of active oxygen, scavenging free radicals and other mechanisms in non-tumor medicine; simultaneously enhancing technological performance in biosensing, drug delivery, and pollutant biodegradation, providing support for biotechnology innovation. In the field of chemical engineering, nano-catalysts play a significant role: in chemical synthesis, the rich active sites with high specific surface area can improve reaction rate and selectivity in processes such as ammonia synthesis and methanol production, reduce activation energy, decrease by products, improve raw material conversion rate, and reduce costs; In terms of green chemistry, we aim to promote environmentally friendly production, such as efficiently catalyzing the degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater to reduce the use of chemical reagents; In the field of energy and chemical engineering, it is applied in fuel cell electrode catalysis, photocatalytic hydrogen production, etc., to improve energy conversion efficiency, promote clean energy development, and support the efficient, green, and sustainable development of the chemical industry.
