Sulphate (as SO4), nitrate (as NO3-N), phosphate (as PO4-P) ions and silicate-(as SiO2) were-studied in dual solution with arsenate. Moreover, the combined effect of ions and other water characteristics were examined with a natural groundwater sample which was spiked with a certain amount of arsenate. Arsenate batch adsorption experiments were carried out with two different kinds of maghemite-a commercially, available one and a homemade one using the sol-gel orocess. Sulohate (≤250 mg.L-1) and nitrate (≤ 12 mg.L-1) had a neglivible effect onthe arsenate (0.5 mg.L-1) adsorption at pH 3. However, both phosphate (42.9 mg·L-1) and silicate (450 mg.L-j) had an adverse impact on arsenate (43 mg.L-1) adsorption at pH 7. Phosphate (41.5 mg.L-1) showed minimal competition with arsenate (0.5 mg.L-1), while silicate (410 mg.L-1) inhibition was insignificant for all studied As(V) concentrations at p.H 3. The removal of arsenate from the groundwater sample was as efficient as from labo-ratory water tor 0.3 mgL -1 AS(V) botll at pH3 and pH7.展开更多

The simulated IR spectrum at the DFT B3 LYP/6-31 G(d) level was compared to the experimental results to characterize the IR spectrum, molecular interactions, and bonding of the ion exchanged species. The continuous liquid flow reactor studies show a capacity of 0.72 mmol/g sorbent for the Ce nitrateand 0.96 mmol/g sorbent for the Ce sulfate with the Dowex 50 W X8. The flow reactor studies reveal the type of solute anion(SO_4^((2-)) or NO_3^((-))) associated with the REE during cation exchange significantly affects the sorption capacity of the Dowex 50 W X8 ion exchange resin. The calculated REE binding energy(BE) and the DFT optimized structures suggest that the differences in sorption capacity is the result of the formation of different types of partially ionexchanged Ce_2^((3+))2 SO_4^((2-)) and Ce^((3+)) 3 NO_3^((-)). These results suggest that the solute anion affects the equilibrium constants of the Dowex resin by the formation of a charged layer capable of retaining the counterion. Modifying the sulfonic acid site(H+) in the Dowex 50 W X8 with the NH_4~+ counterion does not affect the sorption capacity and retention times of the Ce nitrate and Ce sulfate species. These results suggest that the counterions and co-ions having a finite size, may limit access to the Dowex sulfonate active site where the type of REE cation as a nitrate or sulfate in solution may significantly modify the sorption capacity of the ion exchange resin. Similar results are obtained during sorption with nitrates and sulfates of Sm and Yb.展开更多

Under the conditions of the same pHand ionic strength the effect of electrolyte anions on the adsorption of sulfate was in the order of , indicating the difference of the nature among these three anions. For Ferralsol in the sameconcentration of chloride and perchloride solutions, the two sulfate adsorption-pH curves could intersectat certain pH value. When pH was higher than the intersecting point, more sulfate was adsorbed in theperchloride solution, while when it was lower than the intersecting point, more sulfate was adsorbed in thechloride solution. In different concentrations of electrolyte solution, the curves of the amount of oxy-acidanion adsorbed, which changed with pH, could intersect at a certain pH, which is termed point of zero salteffect (PZSE) on adsorption. The nature of electrolyte anions influenced obviously the appearance of PZSEfor sulfate adsorption. For ferraisol the curves of adsorption converged to about pH 7 in NaCl solution seemedto intersect in NaNO<sub>3</sub> solution and to have a typical PZSE for sulfate adsorption in NaClO<sub>4</sub> solution. ForAcrisol the three curves of adsorption were nearly parallel in NaCl and NaNO<sub>3</sub> solutions and converged topH 6.5 in NaClO<sub>4</sub> solution.展开更多

It is found that adsorbed sulfate has significant inhibition effect on FAO kinetics. After addition of 0.05 mol/L or 0.1 mol/L Na2SO4, FAO current in the negative-going scan is found to be significantly smaller than that at the same potential in the positive-going scan. We speculate that at potentials positive of the phase transition potential for the (SO4*ad)m+[(H2O)n-H3O+] or(SO4*ad)m+[Na+(H2O)n-H3O+] adlayer, the adlayer structure probably becomes denser and more stable with the increase of potential or with the addition of Na2SO4. The formation of connected adlayer network greatly enhance the stability of the adlayer, and the insertion of positive-charged H+ or Na+ into the adlayer network further reduces the electrostatic repulsion between partially charged sulfates. As a result, the destruction/desorption of compact sulfate adlayer becomes more difficult, which leaves much less free sites on the surface for FAO, and thus FAO kinetics at higher potentials and in the subsequent negative-going potential scan is significantly inhibited.展开更多

The relative ease of topomerization is dependent on the charge distribution and planarity of the ground state and the transition state of 9-membered rings as well as the size and electronegativity of halogen substituent. Consequently, the endo-2-halo-[9] annulen anion topomers become unstable and easily convert to related exo-topomers. Hence, according to the DFT calcu- lations, the order of topomerization energy barrier for endo = exo topomerization is lendo 〉 2endo 〉 3endo.展开更多

In order to better understand the role and influence of the structure inducer in Q[n] systems, we report herein the self-assembly of Q[6] solely in the presence of[CdCl_4]^(2-)anions and in the presence of both a linear cationic organic vip and [CdCl_4]^(2-)anions. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that 1D Q[6] porous channels were formed by the noncovalent interactions between Q[6] and [CdCl_4]^(2-)anions, but the ''honeycomb effect'' was not observed in the present study.However, it seems that the ''honeycomb effect'' and the self-assembly of Q[6] with [CdCl_4]^(2-)anions can be significantly modified and switched in the presence of a linear cationic dibutylamine vip through some unusual noncovalent interactions.展开更多

文摘Comprehensive Summary To better understand the impact of different anions on the structures and SCO properties of the CoII SCO complexes,six new complexes[Co(terpy-CH_(2)OH)_(2)]A_(2)·sol(terpy-CH_(2)OH=4′-(hydroxymethyl)-2,2′;6′,2″-terpyridine,A=Br^(–)(1,sol=1.5H_(2)O),I^(–)(2),N_(3)^(–)(3,sol=2H_(2)O),H_(3)BCN^(–)(4),OTf^(–)(5),and TsO^(–)(6,sol=4H_(2)O·CH_(3)CN),have been synthesized and characterized.All six compounds consist of mononuclear[Co(terpy-CH_(2)OH)_(2)]^(2+)cations and charge-balancing anions that differ in size,shape,and hydrogen bonding capacity.Complexes 1,2,3,and 6 displayed incomplete gradual SCO transitions,whereas 4 and 5 exhibited abrupt hysteretic spin transitions with loops of 12 and 16 K(250.0—262.0 K for 4,and 370.0—386.0 K for 5,respectively),closely resembling our previously reported complexes with SCN^(–)and SeCN^(–)anions.The occurrence of the order-disorder transition of the CH2OH groups and their transition temperatures are determined by the size and hydrogen bonding capability of the anions.Remarkably,the transition temperatures of complexes with H_(3)BCN^(–),SCN^(–),OTf^(–),and SeCN^(–)anions exhibit an upward trend as the size and mass of the anions increase,as confirmed through detailed single crystal structure analyses conducted in both high-spin and low-spin states for all four complexes.

Sulphate (as SO4), nitrate (as NO3-N), phosphate (as PO4-P) ions and silicate-(as SiO2) were-studied in dual solution with arsenate. Moreover, the combined effect of ions and other water characteristics were examined with a natural groundwater sample which was spiked with a certain amount of arsenate. Arsenate batch adsorption experiments were carried out with two different kinds of maghemite-a commercially, available one and a homemade one using the sol-gel orocess. Sulohate (≤250 mg.L-1) and nitrate (≤ 12 mg.L-1) had a neglivible effect onthe arsenate (0.5 mg.L-1) adsorption at pH 3. However, both phosphate (42.9 mg·L-1) and silicate (450 mg.L-j) had an adverse impact on arsenate (43 mg.L-1) adsorption at pH 7. Phosphate (41.5 mg.L-1) showed minimal competition with arsenate (0.5 mg.L-1), while silicate (410 mg.L-1) inhibition was insignificant for all studied As(V) concentrations at p.H 3. The removal of arsenate from the groundwater sample was as efficient as from labo-ratory water tor 0.3 mgL -1 AS(V) botll at pH3 and pH7.

文摘The effect of the anion in the original rare earth element(REE) solution on the reversible ion exchange of Ce nitrate and Ce sulfate with the Dowex 50 W X8 was investigated using attenuated total reflection infrared(ATR-IR) spectroscopy, continuous flow reactor studies coupled with inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy(ICP-MS), and density functional theory(DFT). The simulated IR spectrum at the DFT B3 LYP/6-31 G(d) level was compared to the experimental results to characterize the IR spectrum, molecular interactions, and bonding of the ion exchanged species. The continuous liquid flow reactor studies show a capacity of 0.72 mmol/g sorbent for the Ce nitrateand 0.96 mmol/g sorbent for the Ce sulfate with the Dowex 50 W X8. The flow reactor studies reveal the type of solute anion(SO_4^((2-)) or NO_3^((-))) associated with the REE during cation exchange significantly affects the sorption capacity of the Dowex 50 W X8 ion exchange resin. The calculated REE binding energy(BE) and the DFT optimized structures suggest that the differences in sorption capacity is the result of the formation of different types of partially ionexchanged Ce_2^((3+))2 SO_4^((2-)) and Ce^((3+)) 3 NO_3^((-)). These results suggest that the solute anion affects the equilibrium constants of the Dowex resin by the formation of a charged layer capable of retaining the counterion. Modifying the sulfonic acid site(H+) in the Dowex 50 W X8 with the NH_4~+ counterion does not affect the sorption capacity and retention times of the Ce nitrate and Ce sulfate species. These results suggest that the counterions and co-ions having a finite size, may limit access to the Dowex sulfonate active site where the type of REE cation as a nitrate or sulfate in solution may significantly modify the sorption capacity of the ion exchange resin. Similar results are obtained during sorption with nitrates and sulfates of Sm and Yb.

文摘Batch experiments were conducted to evaluate fluoride removal by Al,Fe,and Ti-based coagulants and adsorbents,as well as the effects of coexisting ions and formation of aluminum–fluoride complexes on fluoride removal by co-precipitation with alum(Al_2(SO_4)_3·18H_2O).Aluminum sulfate was more efficient than the other coagulants for fluoride removal in the pH range between 6 and 8.Nano-crystalline TiO_2 was more effective for fluoride removal than Al and Fe hydroxides in a pH range of 3–5.Coexisting anions in water decreased the removal of fluoride in the order:phosphate(2.5 mg/L) 〉 arsenate(0.1 mg/L) 〉 bicarbonate(200 mg/L) 〉sulfate(100 mg/L) = nitrate(100 mg/L) 〉 silicate(10 mg/L) at a pH of 6.0.The effect of silicate became more significant at pH 〉 7.0.Calcium and magnesium improved the removal of fluoride.Zeta-potential measurements determined that the adsorption of fluoride shifted the PZC of Al(OH)_3 precipitates from 8.9 to 8.4,indicating the chemical adsorption of fluoride at the surface.The presence of fluoride in solution significantly increased the soluble aluminum concentration at pH 〈 6.5.A Visual MINTEQ modeling study indicated that the increased aluminum solubility was caused by the formation of AlF^(2+),AlF^(+2),and AlF_3complexes.The AlF_x complexes decreased the removal of fluoride during co-precipitation with aluminum sulfate.

文摘The kinetics of formic acid oxidation (FAO) on Pd(111) in 0.1 mol/L H2SO4+0.1 mol/L HCOOH with and without addition of Na2SO4 is studied using cyclic voltammetry and potential step method, which is compared with that in 0.1 mol/L HClO4. It is found that adsorbed sulfate has significant inhibition effect on FAO kinetics. After addition of 0.05 mol/L or 0.1 mol/L Na2SO4, FAO current in the negative-going scan is found to be significantly smaller than that at the same potential in the positive-going scan. We speculate that at potentials positive of the phase transition potential for the (SO4*ad)m+[(H2O)n-H3O+] or(SO4*ad)m+[Na+(H2O)n-H3O+] adlayer, the adlayer structure probably becomes denser and more stable with the increase of potential or with the addition of Na2SO4. The formation of connected adlayer network greatly enhance the stability of the adlayer, and the insertion of positive-charged H+ or Na+ into the adlayer network further reduces the electrostatic repulsion between partially charged sulfates. As a result, the destruction/desorption of compact sulfate adlayer becomes more difficult, which leaves much less free sites on the surface for FAO, and thus FAO kinetics at higher potentials and in the subsequent negative-going potential scan is significantly inhibited.
文摘Topomerization of [9] annulen anion (1) and its 2-fluoro-, 2-chloro- and 2- bromo-defivatives (2, 3 and 4, respectively) are studied at the HF/6-31G* and B3LYP/6-31 1++G** levels of theory. The relative ease of topomerization is dependent on the charge distribution and planarity of the ground state and the transition state of 9-membered rings as well as the size and electronegativity of halogen substituent. Consequently, the endo-2-halo-[9] annulen anion topomers become unstable and easily convert to related exo-topomers. Hence, according to the DFT calcu- lations, the order of topomerization energy barrier for endo = exo topomerization is lendo 〉 2endo 〉 3endo.

文摘The [CdCl_4]^(2-) anion as a structure inducer has proved to be useful in the construction of cucurbit[n]urilmetal coordination architectures and materials. In order to better understand the role and influence of the structure inducer in Q[n] systems, we report herein the self-assembly of Q[6] solely in the presence of[CdCl_4]^(2-)anions and in the presence of both a linear cationic organic vip and [CdCl_4]^(2-)anions. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that 1D Q[6] porous channels were formed by the noncovalent interactions between Q[6] and [CdCl_4]^(2-)anions, but the ''honeycomb effect'' was not observed in the present study.However, it seems that the ''honeycomb effect'' and the self-assembly of Q[6] with [CdCl_4]^(2-)anions can be significantly modified and switched in the presence of a linear cationic dibutylamine vip through some unusual noncovalent interactions.
