The MB was initially adsorbed on the porous ATPs, and then the enriched MB was removed by the H2O2-assisted Fenton-like oxidation with the iron-containing ATP catalyst. Under optimal conditions, the ATP powder exhibits the maximum removal efficiency of 100% with negligible iron leaching(1.5 mg L^(-1)) and no sludge formation. Furthermore,polysulfone/ATP(PSF/ATP) pellets were fabricated through a water-induced phase separation process to construct a fixed-bed reactor(FBR) for continuous contaminant removal. For the first cycle, the maximum adsorption capacity was 15.5 L with an outlet MB concentration of1.973 mg L-1(< 2 mg L^(-1), GB4287-2012) using the PSF/ATP pellets containing 50.0 g of ATP powders, and the maximum Fenton-like oxidation capacity was 35.5 L with the outlet concentration of 0.831 mg L^(-1). After five cycles, the total treated volume of the MB solution was ca. 255 L, and the efficiency remained above 99%. After 10 h of continuous treatment towards practical resin industrial wastewater, the chemical oxygen demand(COD) removal efficiency was still measured at 83.05%, costing 0.398 $ m^(-3). These results demonstrate the practical applicability of iron-containing low-grade ATP clay for textile water treatment.展开更多

In the process, a mixed solution of perchloric acid and lead perchlorate(HClO4-Pb(ClO4)2) with the additives of gelatin and sodium lignin sulfonate is employed as the new electrolyte. The cathodic polarization curves show that HClO4 is very stable, and there is no any reduction reaction of HClO4 during the electrolytic process. The redox reactions of lead ions in HClO4 solution are very reversible with an ultrahigh capacity efficiency, so the HClO4 acts as a stable support electrolyte with higher ionic conductivity than the traditional H2SiF6 electrolyte. The results of the scale-up experiments show that under the optimal conditions of 2.8 mol·L-1 HClO4, 0.4 mol·L-1 Pb(ClO4)2 and electrolysis temperature of 45 ℃, the energy consumption is as low as 24.5 kW·h·(t Pb)-1 , only about 20% of that by Betts method at the same current density of 20 mA·cm-2, and the purity of the refined lead is up to 99.9992%, much higher than that specified by Chinese national standard(99.994%, GB/T 469-2013) and European standard(99.99%, EN 12659–1999).展开更多

Previous studies showed that the sex ratio was affected by environmental factors and parental condition; it may result in seasonal and ecosystem differences.Methods:In this study, the brood sex ratio of the Yellow-bellied Prinia(Prinia flaviventris) in the Nonggang area, Guangxi, southwestern China, was investigated during the breeding season from May to June in 2013 using PCR amplification from whole-genome DNA extracted from blood samples. A total of 31 nests of Yellow-bellied Prinia, including 132 brood fledglings and 31 pairs, were sampled.Results:The results showed that the brood sex ratio of the Yellow-bellied Prinia was 1:1, and sex ratios of different nests were evenly distributed within the study area. No significant relationship was found between parental quality and nest characteristics with the brood sex ratio.Conclusions:The present study indicated that no brood sex ratio bias in the Yellow-bellied Prinia highlighted the complexity of sex ratio adjustment in birds. In spite of our negative results, the lack of an association between brood sex ratio and parental quality and environmental factors in the Yellow-bellied Prinia provides valuable information on the adjustment of sex ratios in birds.展开更多

The role of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) on the formation and adsorption behavior was also observed for the methyl orange and methylene blue. The formed MSH possesses a surface area of 453.24 m^(2)/g, an average pore size of 6.38 nm, and a pore volume of 0.75 cm^(3)/g without CTAB. Based on the role of CTAB and the change in the ratio of Mg/Si, the MSH retained its sphere-like structure with a variation in pore parameters. The formed MSH was used as an adsorbent to remove methylene blue and methyl orange. The pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir Isotherm models are well-fitted, with a 256.4 mg/g removal capacity and 84.2 mg/g for methylene blue and methyl orange, respectively. The modified MSH with CTAB played a positive role for the methyl orange and a negative role for the methylene blue regarding removal performance.展开更多

After intercalation of NPDA anions, the interlayer distance of the LDHs increases from 0.87 to 2.18 nm, confirming their incorporation into the interlayer galleries of the LDHs host. Infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis revealed the presence of host-vip interactions between LDHs layers and NPDA anions. The thermal stability of NPDA and ZnAI-NPDA-LDHs was compared by thermogravimetric-differential ther- mal analysis, UV-visible spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. It was found that the thermal stability of NPDA anions was markedly improved by incorporation into the ZnA1-LDHs matrix, while the light fastness was also enhanced.展开更多

Infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis revealed the presence of host-vip interactions between LDHs layers and NPDA anions. The thermal stability of NPDA and ZnAI-NPDA-LDHs was compared by thermogravimetric-differential ther- mal analysis, UV-visible spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. It was found that the thermal stability of NPDA anions was markedly improved by incorporation into the ZnA1-LDHs matrix, while the light fastness was also enhanced.
