The effects of contact time and ions concentration on adsorption capacity were examined. The maximum adsorption capacity of 1689 mg/g was observed at an initial p H value of 3.5 after agitating for 10 min. It was demonstrated that polyvinylpyrrolidone-reduced graphene oxide had a huge adsorption capacity for Cu ions, which was 10 times higher than maximal value reported in previous works. The adsorption mechanism was also discussed by density functional theory. It demonstrates that Cu ions are attracted to surface of reduced graphene oxide by C atoms in reduced graphene oxide modified by polyvinylpyrrolidone through physisorption processes, which may be responsible for the higher adsorption capacity. Our results suggest that polyvinylpyrrolidone-reduced graphene oxide is an effective adsorbent for removing Cu ions in wastewater. It also provides a new way to improve the adsorption capacity of reduced graphene oxide for dealing with the heavy metal ion in wastewater.展开更多

The geometric structures, the binding energies, the electronic properties of argon atoms adsorbed on Al （111） and Ir （111） surfaces, the difference in electron density between on the Al （111） surface and on the Ir （111） surface and the total density of states are calculated. Our studies indicate that the most stable adsorption site of Ar on the Al （111） surface is found to be the fcc-hollow site for the （2 x 2） structure. The corresponding binding energy of an argon atom at this site is 0.538 eV/Ar atom at a coverage of 0.25 ML. For the Ar adsorption on Ir （111） surface at the same coverage, the most favourable site is the hcp-hollow site, with a corresponding binding energy of 0.493 eV. The total density of states （TDOS） is analysed for Ar adsorption on Al （111） surface and it is concluded that the adsorption behaviour is dominated by the interaction between 3s, 3p orbits of Ar atom and the 3p orbit of the base Al metal and the formation of sp hybrid orbital. For Ar adsorption on Ir （111） surface, the conclusion is that the main interaction in the process of Ar adsorption on Ir （111） surface comes from the 3s and 3p orbits of argon atom and 5d orbit of Ir atom.展开更多

文摘The adsorptive denitrification performance of MIL-101(Cr)-0.5 toward pyridine,aniline or quinoline in simulated fuels with basic nitrogen content of 1732μg/g was evaluated separately.Furthermore,the effects of adsorption temperature,adsorption time and adsorbent dosage on their adsorptive denitrification performance were systematically investigated.The experimental results demonstrated that under a fixed adsorbent dosage of 0.05 g and a simulated fuel volume of 10 mL,the optimal removal efficiency for aniline was achieved at 30℃ within 30 min,whereas higher temperatures and longer times(40℃and 40 min)were required for effective removal of pyridine and quinoline.Density Functional Theory(DFT)calculations were conducted via Materials Studio(MS)software to study the adsorptive denitrification mechanism of MIL-101(Cr)toward these three basic nitrogen-containing compounds.The simulation calculation results revealed that the interaction between pyridine and MIL-101(Cr)primarily involved coordination adsorption.In contrast,the interaction between aniline or quinoline and MIL-101(Cr)proceeded mainly through coordination,with additional contributions fromπ-complexation and hydrogen bonding.The overall adsorption strength order is pyridine>aniline>quinoline.During the adsorption process,pyridine and quinoline transfer electrons to the MIL-101(Cr)surface through the H→C→N→Cr^(3+)pathway,while aniline transfers electrons to the MIL-101(Cr)surface through various pathways,including N→Cr^(3+),N→C→Cr^(3+)and N→H→O.Furthermore,adsorption kinetics studies indicated that the adsorption processes for all three basic nitrogen-containing compounds followed the quasi second order kinetic models.The experimental results on the effect of benzene on the adsorptive denitrification performance of MIL-101(Cr)-0.5 demonstrated that benzene exerted a more significant impact on the adsorption of aniline and quinoline.Finally,the adsorbent was regenerated using ethanol washing.It was found that MIL-101(Cr)-0.5 retained stable denitrification performance after two regeneration cycles.

文摘FAU zeolites have emerged as multifunctional materials with broad applications in catalysis and adsorption,owing to their hierarchical pore architectures,elevated specific surface areas,and adjustable extra-framework cationic sites.This review provides a critical overview of recent advances in FAU zeolite research with emphasis on their roles in environmental pollutant mitigation.A bibliometric analysis was performed to ascertain worldwide research trends,cooperation networks,and principal theme areas.Strategies for synthesis and functionalization,including crystallization pathways,one-pot methods,and post-synthetic modifications,were systematically evaluated for their capacity to tailor structural and physicochemical properties.Environmental applications were discussed in detail,particularly in heavy metal extraction,CO_(2)capture,and catalytic NOx reduction.Despite these advances,challenges persisted,notably restricted chemical stability under extreme pH conditions,scalability obstacles from laboratory to industrial production,and the necessity for enhanced catalytic efficiency.By integrating fundamental understanding with application-oriented perspectives,this review identifies existing knowledge gaps and delineates future directions for the rational design of FAU zeolites toward sustainable environmental remediation.

文摘A novel layered cobalt–magnesium double hydroxide composite(L-CMs)was successfully prepared using a simple onestep co-precipitation method.Static adsorption experiments were conducted to examine the removal efficacy of U(Ⅵ)from aqueous solutions by the L-CMs and analyze the removal mechanism.L-CMs efficiently removed U(Ⅵ)from the aqueous solution under an adsorption time of 60 min,dosage of 0.4 g/L,and pH of 5.5 at room temperature,and the removal efficiency of U(Ⅵ)reached 94.59%with an initial U(Ⅵ)concentration of 10 mg/L.The adsorption process was fitted to the pseudosecond-order kinetic and Langmuir models,indicating that monolayer chemical adsorption occurred primarily.The maximum adsorption capacity fitted using the Langmuir model was 105.49 mg/g.Thermodynamic analysis revealed that U(Ⅵ)adsorption by L-CMs was endothermic.Structural characterization results showed that the primary mechanism involved the complexation of U(Ⅵ)by–OH,CO_(3)^(2-)and ion exchange by Mg^(2+)and the presence of layered Co(OH)_(2) in the L-CMs,which potentially facilitated ion exchange.The preparation of the composite materials was simple,and the synergistic effect between the materials enhanced the ion exchange of Mg^(2+)in the materials and enriched the content of functional groups,making it a potential candidate for the treatment of uranium-containing wastewater.

文摘Antibiotics,as an emerging pollutant due to their extensive use and difficulty in biodegradation,can cause harm to health through bioaccumulation.To address this,various photocatalysts have been developed for rapid antibiotic removal.However,their low concentrations limit mass transfer efficiency,resulting in suboptimal performance.Adsorption is crucial for enhancing photocatalytic efficiency.In this study,a series of binary heterojunction catalysts(x%BWO@STHP)were synthesized,consisting of Bi_(2)WO_(6)(BWO)grafted with sulfonated triptycene-based hypercrosslinked polymer(STHP).The high specific surface area of STHP,combined withπ-πconjugation and ionic interactions with antibiotics,significantly enhances adsorption capacity.This facilitates effective contact between low-concentration pollutants in aqueous solutions and the active sites of the catalyst.The formation of a Z-scheme heterojunction between BWO and STHP facilitates photogenerated charge separation,and further significantly improves photocatalytic degradation performance.Specifically,the 20%BWO@STHP catalyst achieved rapid adsorption equilibrium for oxytetracycline(OTC),doxycycline(DOX),and tetracycline(TC)within 2 min and completely degraded them after 15 min of irradiation.Compared to pristine BWO,the photocatalytic reaction rate constants are significantly increased,being 9.69 times higher for OTC and 13.45 times higher for DOX.The catalyst exhibits excellent reusability and holds promising potential for practical applications.

文摘Aqueous zinc-ion batteries(AZIBs) are regarded as one of the most promising energy conversion and storage devices.Nevertheless,side reactions and dendrite growth on the zinc metal anode hinder their widespread application.In this study,hemin was employed as a multi-functional artificial interface for the first time to inhibit the disordered growth of zinc dendrites and mitigate side reactions.Theoretical calculations indicate that hemin is preferentially adsorbed onto the zinc anode,thus blocking the interaction between the active zinc anode and electrolyte.Compared with zinc foil,the Hemin@Zn anode demonstrates enhanced corrosion resistance,a decrease in hydrogen evolution,and more orderly deposition of zinc.As expected,the symmetric cell with Hemin@Zn anode can sustain up to 4000 h at 0.2 mA/cm^(2),0.2 mAh/cm^(2).Asymmetric Zn//Cu cells exhibit an average coulombic efficiency exceeding 99.72 % during 500 cycles.Moreover,the full cell Hemin@Zn//NH_(4)V_(4)O_(10) delivers a superior capacity up to 367 m Ah/g and the discharge capacity retention reaches 124 mAh/g after 1200 cycles even at a current density of 5 A/g.This work provides a simple and effective method for constructing a robust artificial interface to promote the application of long-life AZIBs.

文摘The flotation separation of argentite from sphalerite using ammonium dibutyl dithiophosphate(ADD)was studied.Molecular simulation(MS)calculation shows that ADD is chemisorbed on argentite and sphalerite surface in the form of S—P bond.The ADD adsorption on argentite and sphalerite surface in Ag^(+)system was revealed by ICP,Zeta potential and XPS analyses.It is shown that the dissolved Ag^(+)from argentite surface can be absorbed on sphalerite surface in the form of silver hydroxide,and AgOH hydrophilic colloid prevents the adsorption of ADD on sphalerite surface.The ADD adsorption on argentite and sphalerite surface in the pulp containing silver and zinc ions was revealed by adsorption capacity and surface wettability analyses.It is shown that the combined Zn(OH)_(2) and AgOH hydrophilic colloid leads to greater ADD adsorption capacity on argentite surface and stronger surface hydrophobicity than sphalerite.Flotation tests demonstrate that ADD enables efficient separation of argentite from sphalerite in the pulp containing silver and zinc ions.

文摘The recovery of precious metals(PMs)from secondary resources is critical for addressing global supply-chain vulnerabilities and sustainable resource utilization.This review systematically examines the transformative potential of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)as next-generation adsorbents for PM recovery,focusing on their synthesis,functionalization,and multiscale adsorption mechanisms.We critically analyze conventional pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical methods and highlight their limitations in terms of selectivity,energy consumption,and secondary pollution.In contrast,MOFs offer tunable porosity,abundant active sites,and tunable surface chemistry,enabling efficient PM capture via synergistic physical and chemical adsorption.Advanced modification techniques,including direct synthesis and post-synthetic modification,are reviewed to propose strategies for enhancing the adsorption kinetics and selectivity for Au,Ag,Pt,and Pd.Key structure-property relationships are established through multiscale characterization and thermodynamic models,revealing the critical roles of hierarchical porosity,soft donor atoms,and framework stability.Industrial challenges,such as aqueous stability and scalability,are addressed via Zr-O bond strengthening,hydrophobic functionalization,and support immobilization.This study consolidates the experimental and theoretical advances in MOF-based PM recovery and provides a roadmap for translating laboratory innovations into practical applications within the circular-economy framework.

文摘The severe shuttle effect and sluggish reaction kinetics in room-temperature sodium-sulfur(RT Na-S)batteries have been major bottlenecks hindering their practical application.To overcome these challenges,a straightforward reduction approach was employed to design three bimetallic alloy nanoparticles(FeNi,FeCo,and NiCo)supported on multistage porous carbon substrates.Experimental and theoretical calculations reveal that the charge transfer within the alloy catalyst influences the position of its d-band center and its degree of hybridization with sodium polysulfides(NaPSs).An increased charge transfer leads to a shift of the alloy’s d-band center closer to the Fermi energy level,thereby enhancing its adsorption and catalytic capabilities.Among the three alloy compositions,the FeNi alloy exhibits the highest charge transfer.Consequently,the FeNi alloy demonstrates the superior electrochemical performance,achieving a high reversible specific capacity of 848.2 mA h g^(−1),with an average capacity degradation rate of only 0.037%per cycle over 1000 cycles at 1.2 C.The S/FeNi/NC cathode exhibits a low electrolyte-to-sulfur(E/S)ratio of 6.6µL mg^(−1),while maintaining a high reversible specific capacity of 568.1 mA h g^(−1).This offers valuable insights for the application of alloy catalysts in the S/FeNi/NC cathode of RT Na-S batteries.

文摘The protein corona formation has been reported to influence the liposomes’behavioral performance in vivo.Accordingly,the effect of physiologically relevant inorganic ion pairs(sodium chloride,sodium sulfate,magnesium chloride,and magnesium sulfate)was investigated.Bovine serum albumin(BSA)was selected as the model protein.Parameters including particle size and zeta potential were assessed,while various spectroscopic techniques were utilized to elucidate the changes in BSA during its interaction with liposomes.The particle size and light intensity distribution changes indicated that the introduction of inorganic pairs,especially the metal cations,could significantly influence both the adsorption of BSA and the aggregation of particles.Furthermore,spectral characterization elucidated that BSA exhibited more extended peptide chains with enhanced exposure to hydrophobic acid amino residues upon adding ion pairs.Electrostatic adsorption and chelation insertion were proposed as metal ion binding modes and the corresponding BSA corona formation.In the electrostatic adsorption mode,sodium ions can enhance the electrostatic interactions,facilitating the“connection”between BSA and liposomes.Magnesium ions can induce stronger hydrophobic interactions through chelation,effectively“drag”BSA segments into the lipid bilayer.This work highlighted important physiological factors for protein-liposome interaction and provided rational model constructions to lay the foundation for further relevant studies.

文摘This research explores the influence of crystallinity on gas chromatographic(GC) separation using covalent organic frameworks(COFs) as stationary phases.Three COF materials(CTF-DCBs) with varying crystallinity were synthesized and characterized.CTF-DCB-1,with superior crystallinity,demonstrated highselectivity GC separation of benzene isomers as well as styrene/phenylacetylene mixtures,while CTFDCB-2 and CTF-DCB-3 exhibited lower crystallinity and worse separation performance.Thermodynamic and kinetic tests showed that CTF-DCB-1 had the worst thermodynamic adsorption but low diffusion mass transfer resistance,which resulted in the best separation.Therefore,optimizing the crystallinity of COFs is necessary for balancing the kinetic diffusion and thermodynamic interactions towards the analytes,achieving high-performance GC stationary phases.

文摘Injecting impure CO_(2)for enhanced gas recovery(CO_(2)-EGR)offers a dual benefit by improving natural gas extraction while enabling CO_(2)sequestration.However,the interactions between CO_(2),N_(2),and CH_(4)under reservoir conditions require further investigation.This study employs Grand Canonical Monte Carlo(GCMC)and Molecular Dynamics(MD)simulations to quantify the adsorption and diffusion behaviors of CO_(2),N_(2),and CH_(4)in quartz nanopores over a pressure range of 1-24 MPa under varying water saturations and gas compositions.The results indicate that:(1)CO_(2)exhibits the broadest energy distribution and the strongest adsorption stability,occupying about 20%-30%more adsorption sites than CH_(4)or N_(2)and showing the least sensitivity to water saturation,with only a 30%reduction at 50%saturation,compared to 60%for CH_(4),giving CO_(2)a clear competitive advantage.(2)The adsorption and desorption behaviors are strongly pressure dependent,as increasing pressure reduces the adsorption layer area and shifts gas distribution from adsorption dominated to free phase.Competitive adsorption analysis reveals that while CO_(2)dominates displacement at low pressures,mixtures that contain N_(2)achieve higher CH_(4)desorption efficiency above 13 MPa by mitigating diffusion resistance.(3)A higher N_(2)fraction improves CH_(4)diffusion coefficients,thereby facilitating gas mobility and ensuring superior recovery performance under high-pressure conditions.This study advances the fundamental knowledge of microscale gas behavior in tight sandstones and supports the feasibility of impure CO_(2)injection as a practical strategy for sustainable gas production.

文摘Organic pollutants,a pivotal factor in water pollution,have persistently menaced the aquatic ecosystem,as well as the sustainable development of human health,economy,and society.Consequently,there is an urgent need for advanced techniques to efficiently eliminate organic micropollutants from water.Here,we present the synthesis of three nonporous cavitand-crosslinked polymers capable of adsorbing diverse organic pollutants from aqueous solutions.These polymeric adsorbents exhibit outstanding adsorptive performance towards the tested micropollutants,characterized by high apparent adsorption rate constants(kobs)and maximum adsorption capacities(qmax,e).Notably,Compound NCCP-1 demonstrated a remarkable qmax,e of 459 mg/g for bisphenol A(BPA),ranking among the highest values reported for organic polymer adsorbents.In-depth investigation of the adsorption mechanism of the nonporous polymer revealed that it involves the recognition of pollutants by the deep cavities of the cavitand moieties and the interstitial spaces between them,primarily mediated by the hydrophobic effect.Furthermore,NCCP-1 was applied in situ water purification simulations and was proven to maintain its removal efficiency over more than four cycles,highlighting its potential for practical applications in water treatment.

文摘Liver is a vital organ in the human body and plays a central role in the metabolism and detoxification of endotoxins and exotoxins.Bilirubin is an endotoxin derived from hemoglobin(Hb).Removing excess bilirubin in the blood is crucial for the treatment of liver diseases.Hemoperfusion,which relies on adsorbents to efficiently adsorb toxins,is a widely applied procedure for the removal of blood toxins.To broaden and improve the range and performance of hemoperfusion adsorbents,we synthesized cationic hyper crosslinked polymers(HCPs)with strong affinity for bilirubin.This material exhibited outstanding adsorption performance,with a maximum adsorption capacity of 934 mg/g and a removal efficiency of 96%.Further investigation confirmed their excellent selectivity,reusability,and biocompatibility.These findings expand the potential applications of HCPs and provide insight into strategies for constructing promising hemoperfusion adsorbent materials.
