Hydrogen is regarded as a safe and sustainable supply of clean energy, which plays a very important role in alleviating the shortage of fossil energy and environmental pollution. Electrocatalytic water splitting is one of the effective ways to produce hydrogen. MoS₂ has been widely used in electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction because of its low \mathrm{\Delta } G_H. This article summarizes the methods for improving the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance of MoS₂, including inducing phase transition or exposing more catalytic active sites in MoS₂ through noble metal doping, and exposing more active sites or generating sulfur vacancies in MoS₂ through transition metal and non?metal doping. Meanwhile, some suggestions have been put forward to improve the catalytic performance of MoS₂.

This paper summarized the separation effects of different electrodialysis systems on lithium in Salt Lake, including single selective electrodialysis, ionic liquid membrane and bipolar membrane, among which ionic liquid membrane with a broad development prospect possesses the characteristics of high recognition of Li⁺, long?term stability under electrolysis and low energy consumption. Furthermore, the advantages, disadvantages and tendency of prospective development of different electrodialysis systems in lithium extraction from Salt Lake were analyzed, and the industrialization research on the application of electrodialysis systems for lithium extraction from Salt Lake was analyzed.
