The variables affecting the desorption behaviors, such as contact time, concentration of the desorbent, pH value of the solution, temperature and desorption isotherms, were investigated by the batch experiments. The results show that the adsorbed Cr（III） on GMZ bentonite can be easily extracted by the desorbent. Kinetics examination shows that desorption is slower than adsorption, and the desorption rate increases with time and reaches the equilibrium after 3 h. The final desorption ratios of Cr（III） are 89.4%, 56.5%and 77.2%in the desorption solution with 0.1 mol/L HCl, 1 mol/L NaCl, and 1 mol/L CaCl2, respectively, and the concentration can promote the desorption progress. Furthermore, the results of successive regeneration cycles indicate that the bentonite has a good regeneration ability and reusability. The pH value is an important factor in the Cr（III） desorption from the GMZ bentonite. The results of adsorption and desorption isotherms show that both adsorption and desorption isotherms are consistent with the Freundlich equation. The comparison of adsorption and desorption isotherms implies that the adsorption/desorption hysteresis is negligible and the transport of Cr（III） in bentonite can be described by a reversible adsorption process.展开更多

The dehydriding kinetics of the hydrides was measured under the isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. A model was applied to analyzing the kinetics behavior of Mg-Ni hydride. The calculation results show that the theoretical value and the experimental data can reach a good agreement, especially in the case of non-isothermal dehydriding. The rate-controlling step is the diffusion of hydrogen atoms in the solid solution. The sample prepared under magnetic field of 6 T under the isothermal condition can reach the best performance. The similar tendency was observed under the non-isothermal condition and the reason was discussed.展开更多

The amount of phosphorus adsorption increased with the increase of phosphorus concentration and this increase was fast in low phosphorus concentration area but slow in high phosphorus concentration area.At different phosphorus concentrations,adsorption showed a へ shape changing trend.The phosphorus adsorption was related to phosphorus concentration and the 2-3 mm aggregate had the highest desorption rate while 0.1-0.25 mm aggregate and 0.45-1 mm aggregate had lowest desorption rate.[Conclusion]The PAM treatment generated significant influence on phosphorus adsorption and analytic features of aggregate in all size fractions.展开更多

The final coated particle exiting from the con- denser is then introduced into the aerodynamic particle sizer spectrometer or home-built aerosol laser time-of-flight mass spectrometer, and its aerodynamic size directly effects on the matrix-to-analyte molar ratio, which is very important for MALDI technique. In order to observe the protonated analyte molecular ion, and then determine the classification of bi- ological aerosols, the matrix-to-analyte molar ratio must be appropriate. Four experimental parameters, including the temperature of the heated reservoir, the initial particle size, its number concentration, and the matrix material, were tested experimentally to analyze their influences on the final particle size. This technique represents an on-line system of detection that has the potential to provide rapid and reliable identification of airborne biological aerosols.展开更多

The pore structure, specific surface area, surface morphologies and functional groups of the CNTs were tested by N2 adsorption, scanning electron microscope （SEM） and infrared spectra （IR）. The investigation of dynamic adsorption, isothermal equilibrium adsorption and desorption of isoliquiritigenin and liquiritigenin to CNTs demonstrated that the adsorption amount on oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes （o-MWCNTs） was greater than that on raw multi-walled carbon nanotubes （r-MWCNTs）, especially the adsorption of isoliquiritigenin to o-MWCNTs. The data of equilibrium adsorption were better represented by the Freundlich isotherm model. In addition, the adsorbed amount per unit CNTs was decreased when the temperature got higher. From the results of isothermal equilibrium adsorption and desorption to CNTs, it could be inferred that o-MWCNTs had higher adsorption to isoliquiritigenin and liquiritigenin than r-MWCNTs. Additionally, o-MWCNTs had a better desorption efficiency to isoliquiritigenin and liquiritigenin （about 48.57% and 32.86%） than r-MWCNTs （about 24.56% and 17.46%）.展开更多

文摘Flotation is the most common method to recover valuable minerals by selective adsorption of collectors on target mineral surfaces.However,in subsequent hydrometallurgy of mineral flotation concentrates,the adsorbed collectors must be desorbed since it can adversely affect the efficiency of metallurgical process and produce wastewater.ZL,as a fatty acid mixture,is a typical industrially used collector for scheelite flotation in China.Sodium oleate(NaOL)has similar fatty acid group as ZL.In this study,the desorption behavior of NaOL/ZL from scheelite surface by a physical method of stirring at a low temperature was investigated.NaOL desorption tests of single mineral showed that a desorption rate of 77.75% for NaOL from scheelite surface into pulp was achieved in a stirring speed of2500 r/min at 5℃in a neutral environment.Under the above desorption condition,in the pulp containing desorbed collector by adding extra 30% normal NaOL dosage,the scheelite recovery reached about 95% in the single mineral flotation test.Desorption and reuse of ZL collector for the flotation of real scheelite ore showed only a 75%normal dosage of ZL could produce a qualified rough concentrate.The atomic force microscope(AFM)tests showed that after desorption treatment of low temperature and strong stirring,the dense strip-like structure of NaOL on the scheelite surface was destroyed to be speck-like.Molecular dynamics simulations(MDS)demonstrated that the adsorption energy between NaOL and scheelite surface was more negative at 25℃(-13.39 kcal/mol)than at 5℃(-11.50 kcal/mol)in a neutral pH,indicating that a low temperature was beneficial for the desorption of collector from mineral surface.Due to its simplicity and economy,the method we proposed of desorption of collector from mineral surface and its reuse for flotation has a great potential for industrial application.

文摘Soil contamination remains a global problem,and numerous studies have been published for investigating soil re-mediation.Thermal desorption remediation(TDR)can significantly reduce the contaminants in the soil within a short time and consequently has been used worldwide.However,the soil properties respond to TDR differently and are dependent on the experimental set-up.The causative mechanisms of these differences are yet to be fully elucidated.A statistical meta-analysis was thus undertaken to evaluate the TDR treatment effects on soil properties and plant per-formance.This review pointed out that soil clay was reduced by 54.2%,while soil sand content was enhanced by 15.2% after TDR.This might be due to the release of cementing agents from clay minerals that resulted in the formation of soil aggregates.Soil electrical conductivity enhanced by 69.5% after TDR,which might be due to the heating-induced loss of structural hydroxyl groups and the consequent liberation of ions.The treatment of TDR leads to the reduction of plant germination rate,length,and biomass by 19.4%,44.8%,and 20.2%,respectively,compared to that of control soil.This might be due to the residue of contaminants and the loss of soil fertility during the thermal process that inhibited plant germination and growth.Soil pH and sulfate content increased with heating temperature increased,while soil enzyme activities decreased with thermal temperature increased.Overall,the results suggested that TDR treatment has inhibited plant growth as well as ecological restoration.

文摘Ingestion of microplastics by various organisms has been widely evidenced.Chemicals associated with microplastics(MPs)may be released to digestive tracts upon ingestion.However,the effect of aging and temperature on the chemical desorption for MPs remains poorly understood.The exposure of polyethylene(PE)particles to UV radiation in dry air,tap water,and sea water was conducted to mimic the aging process of MPs in different environments.Polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs),as a typical hydrophobic organic contaminant,were preloaded in these aged and pristine PE.The desorption was performed by exposing preloaded PE particles in simulated gastric and gut fluids at 25℃and 40℃.After UV aging,the average diameter of PE particles decreased rapidly with aging time,indicating continuously fragmentation of PE under UV exposure.The desorption of PCBs from PE particles under different conditions varied from 7%to 40%,and that from aged PE in gut fluid at 37℃was significantly higher than those under other conditions(P<0.05).Furthermore,a clear declining trend was observed as lg K_(ow)(octanol-water partition coefficient)value increased.The aging process,hydrophobicity of chemicals,and incubation temperature were important factors on the desorption of PCBs from PE.The present study helps understand the desorption of PCBs from microplastics and the potential risks of microplastics ingestion by organisms.

文摘Catalytic amine-solvent regeneration has been validated as an energy-saving strategy for CO_(2) chemisorption by boosting reaction kinetics under mild conditions.The upscale performance evaluation and longterm durability are indispensable steps for industrial application but have been scarcely reported thus far.Here,we report a ZrO_(2)/Al_(2)O_(3) pack catalyst that possesses strong metal oxide-support interactions,a porous structure,active and stable Zr-O-Al coordination,promoted proton transfer and a 40.7% decrease in the energy activation of carbamate decomposition,which significantly accelerates CO_(2) desorption kinetics.The upscale experiment and cost evaluation based on industrial flue gas revealed that the use of packing catalysts can reduce energy consumption by 27.56% and optimize the overall cost by 10.49%.The active sites present excellent stability in alkaline solvents.This work is the first to investigate the ability of high-technology readiness(technology readiness level at 6(TRL 6))for catalytic aminesolvent regeneration,providing valuable insights for potential applications involving efficient CO_(2) capture with catalyst assistance.

文摘Flotation is the most common method to obtain concentrate through the selective adsorption of collectors on target minerals to make them hydrophobic and floatable.In the hydrometallurgy of concentrate,collectors adsorbed on concentrate can damage ion-exchange resin and increase the chemical oxygen demand(COD)value of wastewater.In this work,we proposed a new scheme,i.e.,desorbing the collectors from concentrate in ore dressing plant and reusing them in flotation flowsheet.Lead nitrate and benzohydroxamic acid(Pb-BHA)complex is a common collector in scheelite flotation.In this study,different physical(stirring or ultrasonic waves)and chemical(strong acid or alkali environment)methods for facilitating the desorption of Pb-BHA collector from scheelite concentrate were explored.Single-mineral desorption tests showed that under the condition of pulp pH 13 and ultrasonic treatment for 15 min,the highest desorption rates of Pb and BHA from the scheelite concentrate were 90.48%and 63.75%,respectively.Run-of-mine ore flotation tests revealed that the reuse of desorbed Pb and BHA reduced the collector dosage by 30%for BHA and 25%for Pb.The strong alkali environment broke the chemical bonds between Pb and BHA.The cavitation effect of ultrasonic waves effectively reduced the interaction intensity between Pb-BHA collector and scheelite surfaces.This method combining ultrasonic waves and strong alkali environment can effectively desorb the collectors from concentrate and provide“clean”scheelite concentrate for metallurgic plants;the reuse of desorbed collector in flotation flowsheet can reduce reagent cost for ore dressing plants.

文摘To identify the species in liquid surface using mass spectrometry,we must eliminate or reduce interferences during the vaporization or desorption of the species from the liquid surface.It is much more challenging to isolate the ionic,larger species from the liquid surface,because of the frangible structures and the higher solvation energies of those species.Here we demonstrate a new mass spectrometry in which the ionic species at the liquid surface can be desorbed with ultrasoft infrared picosecond laser pulses while the liquid surface is not breached.This laser desorption assisted mass spectrometry is not only a powerful tool to detect the fragile species but also promising to investigate vibrational energy transfer dynamics in the liquid surface.

文摘The heterointerface engineering involving different components or phases represents a desirable strategy for enhancing the sluggish kinetics of hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).However,constructing desired heterointerfaces and elucidating the reaction mechanisms on the interface remains a considerable challenge.In this work,we propose a straightforward electrochemical synthesis strategy to prepare the nickel sulfide-based heterointerfaces for HER.The mechanism of electrochemical synthesis is revealed,wherein metal-thiourea species can be formed at the cathode potential and subsequently oxidized to nickel sulfides at the anode potentials.Leveraging this mechanism,a range of nickel sulfides,including NiS,Ni_(3)S_(2)/NiS,Ni/Ni_(3)S_(2)and Ni_(3)S_(2),have been successfully synthesized by tuning the potential range of cyclic voltammetry.Among these,the obtained Ni_(3)S_(2)/NiS@CC(CC:carbon cloth)exhibits the smallest overpotential of84 mV at 10 mA·cm^(-2)and high stability.Theoretical calculations further reveal that the combination of NiS and Ni_(3)S_(2)induces electron redistribution at the interface,and thus the Volmer process is effectively promoted with faster water dissociation and OH desorption kinetics.Significantly,the simplicity method coupled with a clear synthesis mechanism and outstanding HER performance highlights its promising potential for practical applications.

文摘Low salinity water containing sulfate ions can significantly alter the surface wettability of carbonate rocks.Nevertheless,the impact of sulfate concentration on the desorption of oil film on the surface of carbonate rock is still unknown.This study examines the variations in the wettability of the surface of carbonate rocks in solutions containing varying amounts of sodium sulfate and pure water.The problem is addressed in the framework of molecular dynamics simulation(Material Studio software)and experiments.The experiment’s findings demonstrate that sodium sulfate can increase the rate at which oil moisture is turned into water moisture.The final contact angle is smaller than that of pure water.The results of the simulations show that many water molecules travel down the water channel under the influence of several powerful forces,including the electrostatic force,the van der Waals force and hydrogen bond,crowding out the oil molecules on the calcite’s surface and causing the oil film to separate.The relative concentration curve of water and oil molecules indicates that the separation rate of the oil film on the surface of calcite increases with the number of sulfate ions.

文摘We study the desorption mechanism of hydrogen isotopes from graphene surface using first-principles calculations,with focus on the effects of quantum tunneling.At low temperatures,quantum tunneling plays a dominant role in the desorption process of both hydrogen monomers and dimers.In the case of dimer desorption,two types of mechanisms,namely the traditional one-step desorption in the form of molecules(molecular mechanism),and the two-step desorption in the form of individual atoms(atomic mechanism),are studied and compared.For the ortho-dimers,the dominant desorption mechanism is found to switch from the molecular mechanism to the atomic mechanism above a critical temperature,which is∼300K and 200K for H and D,respectively.

文摘Molybdenum carbide(Mo_(2)C)is a promising non-noble metal electrocatalyst with electronic structures similar to Pt for hydrogen evolution reaction(HER).However,strong H^(*)adsorption at the Mo sites hinders the improvement of HER performance.Here,we synthesized monodisperse hollow Mo_(2)C nanoreactors,in which the carbon dots(CD)were in situ formed onto the surface of Mo_(2)C through carburization reactions.According to finite element simulation and analysis,the CD@Mo_(2)C possesses better mesoscale diffusion properties than Mo_(2)C alone.The optimized CD@Mo_(2)C nanoreactor demonstrates superior HER performance in alkaline electrolyte with a low overpotential of 57 mV at 10 mA cm^(−2),which is better than most Mo_(2)C-based electrocatalysts.Moreover,CD@Mo_(2)C exhibits excellent electrochemical stability during 240 h,confirmed by operando Raman and X-ray diffraction(XRD).Density functional theory(DFT)calculations show that carbon dots cause the d-band center of CD@Mo_(2)C to shift away from Fermi level,promoting water dissociation and the desorption of H^(*).This study provides a reasonable strategy towards high-activity Mo-based HER eletrocatalysts by modulating the strength of Mo–H bonds.

文摘The Cr（III） desorption experiments of Gaomiaozi （GMZ） bentonite in aqueous solutions were performed. The variables affecting the desorption behaviors, such as contact time, concentration of the desorbent, pH value of the solution, temperature and desorption isotherms, were investigated by the batch experiments. The results show that the adsorbed Cr（III） on GMZ bentonite can be easily extracted by the desorbent. Kinetics examination shows that desorption is slower than adsorption, and the desorption rate increases with time and reaches the equilibrium after 3 h. The final desorption ratios of Cr（III） are 89.4%, 56.5%and 77.2%in the desorption solution with 0.1 mol/L HCl, 1 mol/L NaCl, and 1 mol/L CaCl2, respectively, and the concentration can promote the desorption progress. Furthermore, the results of successive regeneration cycles indicate that the bentonite has a good regeneration ability and reusability. The pH value is an important factor in the Cr（III） desorption from the GMZ bentonite. The results of adsorption and desorption isotherms show that both adsorption and desorption isotherms are consistent with the Freundlich equation. The comparison of adsorption and desorption isotherms implies that the adsorption/desorption hysteresis is negligible and the transport of Cr（III） in bentonite can be described by a reversible adsorption process.

文摘The Mg-Ni hydride was prepared by hydriding combustion synthesis under a high magnetic field. The dehydriding kinetics of the hydrides was measured under the isothermal and non-isothermal conditions. A model was applied to analyzing the kinetics behavior of Mg-Ni hydride. The calculation results show that the theoretical value and the experimental data can reach a good agreement, especially in the case of non-isothermal dehydriding. The rate-controlling step is the diffusion of hydrogen atoms in the solid solution. The sample prepared under magnetic field of 6 T under the isothermal condition can reach the best performance. The similar tendency was observed under the non-isothermal condition and the reason was discussed.
文摘[Objective]The research aimed to provide scientific reference for reasonable utilization of polyacrylamide(PAM).[Method]After PAM treatment,the soil aggregates were classified through dry sieve analysis and the adsorption capacity and desorption capacity of all soil aggregates to phosphorus at different phosphorus concentrations were analyzed.[Result] The phosphorus adsorption and desorption of soil sample treated by PAM declined. The amount of phosphorus adsorption increased with the increase of phosphorus concentration and this increase was fast in low phosphorus concentration area but slow in high phosphorus concentration area.At different phosphorus concentrations,adsorption showed a へ shape changing trend.The phosphorus adsorption was related to phosphorus concentration and the 2-3 mm aggregate had the highest desorption rate while 0.1-0.25 mm aggregate and 0.45-1 mm aggregate had lowest desorption rate.[Conclusion]The PAM treatment generated significant influence on phosphorus adsorption and analytic features of aggregate in all size fractions.
文摘An evaporation/condensation flow cell was developed and interfaced with the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization （MALDI） time-of-flight mass spectrometer for on-line bioaerosol detection and characterization, which allows matrix addition by condensation onto the laboratory-generated bioaerosol particles. The final coated particle exiting from the con- denser is then introduced into the aerodynamic particle sizer spectrometer or home-built aerosol laser time-of-flight mass spectrometer, and its aerodynamic size directly effects on the matrix-to-analyte molar ratio, which is very important for MALDI technique. In order to observe the protonated analyte molecular ion, and then determine the classification of bi- ological aerosols, the matrix-to-analyte molar ratio must be appropriate. Four experimental parameters, including the temperature of the heated reservoir, the initial particle size, its number concentration, and the matrix material, were tested experimentally to analyze their influences on the final particle size. This technique represents an on-line system of detection that has the potential to provide rapid and reliable identification of airborne biological aerosols.

文摘The adsorption and desorption of isoliquiritigenin and liquiritigenin to different types of carbon nanotubes （CNTs） were comparatively studied in this study. The pore structure, specific surface area, surface morphologies and functional groups of the CNTs were tested by N2 adsorption, scanning electron microscope （SEM） and infrared spectra （IR）. The investigation of dynamic adsorption, isothermal equilibrium adsorption and desorption of isoliquiritigenin and liquiritigenin to CNTs demonstrated that the adsorption amount on oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes （o-MWCNTs） was greater than that on raw multi-walled carbon nanotubes （r-MWCNTs）, especially the adsorption of isoliquiritigenin to o-MWCNTs. The data of equilibrium adsorption were better represented by the Freundlich isotherm model. In addition, the adsorbed amount per unit CNTs was decreased when the temperature got higher. From the results of isothermal equilibrium adsorption and desorption to CNTs, it could be inferred that o-MWCNTs had higher adsorption to isoliquiritigenin and liquiritigenin than r-MWCNTs. Additionally, o-MWCNTs had a better desorption efficiency to isoliquiritigenin and liquiritigenin （about 48.57% and 32.86%） than r-MWCNTs （about 24.56% and 17.46%）.
