The effects of optimum pH, contact time, metal ion concentration, biosorbent dose, biosorbent particle size and the presence of sodium, calcium and magnesium interfering ions on the sorption were investigated. Experimental results showed that Delonix regia biomass was effective in removing these metals from aqueous solutions as the equilibrium biosorption of both metals was attained within 60 minutes of interaction with 98% of the metals removed within this period. Sorption of these metals was dependent on pH as maximum removal was attained at pH 4 and pH 5 for Lead and Nickel ions respectively. Adsorption experiments showed that the process followed the pseudo second order kinetic model with high r2 (0.9999) and the equilibrium data fitted well with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The presence of competing ions impacted negatively on the sorption process irrespective of the type used. 27% and 36% of lead (II) were recovered from the spent biosorbents with 1 MHCl and disodium salt of EDTA solutions respectively.展开更多

Furthermore, the oxidation kinetics of VTM pellets were explored through linear fitting to the kinetic equations based on the shrinking unreacted-core model. The results reveal that VTM pellets undergo oxidation in three distinct phases: pre-oxidation, mid-oxidation, and final stable phase. Notably, the mid-oxidation phase is absent in magnetite oxidation. The shrinking unreacted-core model has been proven to be suitable for modeling the process of oxidizing VTM pellets. In the pre-oxidation stage, the rate-controlling step is determined by both the oxidation temperature and the effective oxygen concentration. The influence of the effective oxygen concentration on the rate of oxidation is more pronounced at temperatures between 1073 and 1273 K, especially when the oxygen content falls below 15 vol.%. For the production of oxidized VTM pellets, it is necessary to maintain a preheating temperature above 1173 K (to accelerate the oxidation reaction) and below 1473 K (to prevent the swift formation of compact Fe2TiO5 at the shell of the pellet) in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere.展开更多

文摘Cold-rolling was conducted on AZ31 magnesium alloy with fine and coarse grains to produce plates with high density of shear bands and{101^(-)1}twins,respectively.Then,these two kinds of plates are subjected to isothermal annealing to reveal the effect of shear bands and{101^(-)1}twins on recrystallization behavior.During annealing,static recrystallization occurs firstly in shear band zones and{101^(-)1}twin zones,which has different effect on texture and mechanical properties.With the increase of annealing temperature,strong basal texture remains in annealed SG-17%while the basal texture is weakened gradually in annealed LG-15%.Recrystallized grains from twin zones have a random orientation which is responsible for the weakened basal texture in annealed LG-15%.In addition,microhardness decreases gradually with the prolonged annealing time due to static recrystallization.LG-15%has a lower recrystallization activation energy because{101^(-)1}twins are in favor of the nucleation and growth of recrystallized grains.After 500℃annealing,the yield strength decreases significantly with a significant improvement in failure strain.The annealed LG-15%has a much higher compressive strain than the annealed SG-17%due to texture weakening effect.
文摘This research aims to investigate the potential of a plant cellulose developed from Opuntia ficus-indica(OFI)cladode as a sustainable and renewable adsorbent for the removal of neutral red(NR),a cationic dye pollutant,from aqueous environments.Analysis of raw and treated OFI using X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(FTIR)demonstrated the successful extraction of type I_(β)cellulose.The Brunauer–Emmett–Teller(BET)analysis of the nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm revealed an improved specific surface area of 12.4 m^(2)/g after treatment.A systematic study of key parameters in batch adsorption experiments revealed removal rates greater than 90%at pH=3,an adsorbent dosage of 3 g/L and an initial dye concentration of 100 mg/L with equilibrium achieved within 2 h.The high correlation coefficient(R^(2)=0.98)obtained with the Langmuir isotherm model suggests that the adsorption behavior is consistent with monolayer surface adsorption.A maximum adsorption capacity(Qm)of 357.1 mg/g for neutral red dye was achieved,demonstrating a significant adsorption capacity relative to other materials such as chitosan-modified activated carbon and halloysite nanotubes.The pseudo-second-order model effectively described the kinetics of the adsorption phenomena.Thermodynamic analysis revealed an exothermic and spontaneous adsorption process,with an enthalpy change(ΔH)of−24.886 kJ/mol,indicative of predominantly physisorption-driven interactions.Moreover,the regenerated cellulose exhibited a retention of over 70%efficiency after multiple adsorption-desorption cycles,highlighting its potential as an excellent reusable adsorbent.The outcomes of this research present an environmentally conscious alternative to synthetic adsorbents,facilitating the effective NR dye removal through renewable and sustainable means.
文摘Phosphoric acid is a key ingredient in fertilizer production and contains many rare earth elements(REEs).Recovering REEs from phosphoric acid can prevent the accumulation of these elements in the soil and help bridge the gap between supply and demand.In this concern,a new material called Si-6G PAMAMPPAAM dendrimers modified silica gel terminated with phenylphosphonic acid-amide moieties was developed and its ability to adsorb Nd(Ⅲ)and Er(Ⅲ)from the phosphoric acid solution was investigated.K inetics and isotherm of the uptake process were investigated to explo re the so rption characte ristics.The attained results show that both metal ions exhibit the same adsorption performance,and the uptake process is depicted as a chemisorption,monolayer,uniform,and homogeneous process.The equilibrium state is achieved within 120 min,and the maximum uptake capacity is 16.7 mg Nd(Ⅲ)/g,and 14.0 mg Er(Ⅲ)/g.Sorption thermodynamics is an endothermic,spontaneous,and feasible uptake process.Nitric acid(1.0 mol/L)is found to be efficient for adsorbing about 94.3%and 92.5%of neodymium(Ⅲ)and erbium(Ⅲ)respectively,and the prepared Si-6G PAMAM-PPAAM demonstrates excellent stability over five consecutive sorption/desorption cycles.Preliminary tests on commercial phosphoric acid demonstrate that Si-6G PAMAM-PPAAM retains its effective REEs uptake from a complex comm ercial phosph oric acid solution.

文摘Silicomanganese dust contains large amounts of valuables,such as Si and Mn,which can be used as raw materials for the smelting of silicomanganese.However,the direct addition of dust to the submerged arc furnace can influence the permeability of burden due to the fine particle size of dust,which results in incomplete reduction reactions during the smelting process.In this paper,silicomanganese dust,graphite powder,and other additives were pressed to form carbon-containing dust briquettes,and the self-reduction process of the dust briquettes was investigated through the isothermal thermogravimetric method with different carbon–oxygen (C/O) molar ratios,contents of fluxing agents,and reduction temperatures.Various reduction kinetic models for dust briquettes at different temperatures were established.The results show that the reaction fraction of the dust briquettes was about 90%at a C/O molar ratio of 1.2 with optimal reduction efficiency.The addition of CaF_(2)contributed to the decrease in the melting point and viscosity of dust briquettes,which increased their reduction rate.As the reduction temperature increased,the reduction rate of dust briquettes increased.The reduction reaction rate of dust briquettes was controlled through gas-phase diffusion.Meanwhile,their reduction process was analyzed kinetically,with the reaction time of 5 min as the dividing line.The apparent activation energies for the two diffusion stages were 56.10 and 100.52 kJ/mol,respectively.The kinetic equations are expressed as[1-(1-f)^(1/3)]^(2)=0.69e^(-56100/(RT))t and [1-(1-f)^(1/3)]^(2)=2.06e^(-100520/(RT))t.

文摘Cadmium(Cd)contamination of soil is a global environmental issue.Traditional remediation techniques such as immobilization,leaching,and phytoextraction have numerous shortcomings,which has led to growing interest in the development of low-cost,high-efficiency,and environmentally friendly agents for removing Cd from soil.In this study,four magnetite(Fe_(3)O_(4))/polyaniline(PANI)nanocomposites,Fe_(3)O_(4)(1.0)/PANI,Fe_(3)O_(4)(1.5)/PANI,Fe_(3)O_(4)(2.0)/PANI,and Fe_(3)O_(4)(2.5)/PANI,were developed using 4 mL aniline monomer and 1.0,1.5,2.0,and 2.5 g Fe_(3)O_(4),respectively,and used as remediation agents with magnetic separation and regeneration capabilities.The Cd adsorption isotherms showed a better fit to the Langmuir model,with Fe_(3)O_(4)(1.5)/PANI exhibiting the highest Cd adsorption capacity of 47.62 mg g^(-1) at 25℃.Then,Fe_(3)O_(4)(1.5)/PANI was used to remediate four Cd-contaminated soils typical in China(black,brown,cinnamon,and red),all with a Cd content of 180 mg kg^(-1) after spiking.The results showed that the total Cd removal efficiency was satisfactory at 25.25%–38.91%and the exchangeable Cd removal efficiency was 36.03%on average.In addition,soil basic properties did not show significant changes after remediation.Regarding the regeneration performance,a higher total Cd removal efficiency(27.89%–44.96%)was achieved after the first regeneration cycle of Fe_(3)O_(4)(1.5)/PANI.After two regeneration cycles,Fe_(3)O_(4)(1.5)/PANI exhibited decreased total Cd removal efficiency compared to after the first regeneration,but its efficiency remained above 95%of or higher than those of virgin Fe_(3)O_(4)(1.5)/PANI.The synthetic process of Fe_(3)O_(4)/PANI was simple and cost-effective,and Fe_(3)O_(4)/PANI exhibited a high Cd removal efficiency with easy recovery and recyclability.Therefore,Fe_(3)O_(4)/PANI is a promising solution for the sustainable and efficient remediation of Cd-contaminated soils,especially for the reclamation of highly contaminated development land.

文摘Semicrystalline polymers usually undergo multilevel microstructural evolutions with annealing and stretching processes,which is es-sential to tailor the physical properties of the polymer.Here,poly(butylene carbonate)(PBC)sheets were prepared via isothermal annealing and unidirectional pre-stretching processes,then the changes of PBC in crystallinity,mechanical properties,thermal properties and microscopic changes before and after annealing and stretching were measured,as well as the relationship between microstructure and macroscopic proper-ties before and after stretching.The strengthening mechanism of PBC was also described.It was demonstrated that shish-kabab structure emerged under the pre-stretching process.With the increase of the tensile ratio,the crystallinity,structure and mechanical properties are in-creased differently.Among them,the crystallinity and tensile strength after annealing-stretching treatment increased to 24.45%and 104.5 MPa,respectively,which were about 1.55 times and 3.4 times of those-without any treatment.

文摘Roasting bastnaesite concentrates is a crucial process in extracting rare earths.This study explored an efficient suspension roasting technology and investigated the bastnaesite pyrolysis and cerium(Ce)oxidation.Relevant analytical tests were applied to evaluate the phase and surface property variations of bastnaesite,and isothermal kinetic analysis of bastnaesite pyrolysis and Ce oxidation was performed.The results revealed that bastnaesite decomposed rapidly and accompanied by Ce oxidation,and the gas-solid products were identified as CO_(2),Ce_(7)O_(12),La_(2)O_(3),CeF_(3) and LaF_(3),with Ce oxidation restricted by bastnaesite pyrolysis.As roasting time prolonged,cracks and pores appeared on bastnaesite surface;the BET specific surface and pore diameter increased.In later roasting period,the pore diameter continued to increase but the specific surface decreased,assigned to particle fusion agglomeration and pore consolidation.Additionally,the surface C content reduced and Ce(Ⅳ)content increased gradually as roasting progressed.The reaction kinetics all followed Avrami-Erofeev equations,the reaction orders of bastnaesite pyrolysis and Ce oxidation decreased with decreasing reaction temperature.The calculated activation energies at lower temperatures were higher than those calculated at higher temperatures.This study analyzed the bastnaesite reaction mechanism to supply a reference for the application of suspension roasting technology in bastnaesite smelting.

文摘Ultrasensitive detection of nucleic acids is of great significance for precision medicine.Digital polymerase chain reaction(dPCR)is the most sensitive method but requires sophisticated and expensive instruments and a long reaction time.Digital PCR-free technologies,which mean the digital assay not relying on thermal cycling to amplify the signal for quantitative detection of nucleic acids at the singlemolecule level,include the digital isothermal amplification techniques(d IATs)and the digital clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR)technologies.They combine the advantages of d PCR and IATs,which could be fast and simple,enabling absolute quantification of nucleic acids at a single-molecule level with minimum instrument,representing the next-generation molecular diagnostic technology.Herein,we systematically summarized the strategies and applications of various dIATs,including the digital loop-mediated isothermal amplification(dLAMP),the digital recombinase polymerase amplification(dRPA),the digital rolling circle amplification(dRCA),the digital nucleic acid sequencebased amplification(d NASBA)and the digital multiple displacement amplification(d MDA),and evaluated the pros and cons of each method.The emerging digital CRISPR technologies,including the detection mechanism of CRISPR and the various strategies for signal amplification,are also introduced comprehensively in this review.The current challenges as well as the future perspectives of the digital PCR-free technology were discussed.
文摘Bromocresol green(BCG)and malachite green(MG)are water-soluble toxic organic dyes with adverse health and environmental implications.This study presented a conjugate imprinted adsorbent(CIA)synthesized by incorporating trimethoprim vanillin ligand into a highly crosslinked polymer,designed for the efficient removal of BCG and MG from wastewater.Characterization of CIA involved X-ray powder diffraction,Fourier transform infrared,and scanning electron microscopic analyses.Batch adsorption processes were conducted to evaluate the adsorption characteristics of CIA,with focuses on the effects of contact time,initial dye concentration,pH,and temperature.The molecularly imprinted polymers(MIPs)achieved removal efficiencies of 99.27%and 98.99%at equilibrium for BCG and MG adsorption,respectively.The non-imprinted polymers(NIPs)demonstrated BCG and MG adsorption efficiencies of 51.52%and 62.90%at equilibrium,respectively.Kinetic and isotherm models were employed to elucidate the BCG and MG adsorption mechanisms.The thermodynamic results indicated non-spontaneous and spontaneous reactions for BCG and MG adsorption on MIPs under the examined temperature conditions.The adsorbent exhibited sustained high removal efficiency through five reuse cycles,with no apparent reduction in adsorption performance.Validation of the adsorbent using real textile wastewater samples achieved BCG and MG removal efficiencies of 85.5%-87.5%.The adsorbent outperformed previously reported materials in BCG and MG adsorption.The synthesized CIA is a promising adsorbent for BCG and MG dye removal,contributing to water sustainability.
文摘Naphthenic acids,NAs,are a major contaminant of concern and a focus of much research around remediation of oil sand process affected waters,OSPW.Using activated carbon adsorbents are an attractive option given their low cost of fabrication and implementation.A deeper evaluation of the effect NA structural differences have on uptake affinity is warranted.Here we provide an in-depth exploration of NA adsorption including many more model NA species than have been assessed previously with evaluation of adsorption kinetics and isotherms at the relevant alkaline pH of OSPW using several different carbon adsorbents with pH buffering to simulate the behaviour of real OSPW.Uptake for the NA varied considerably regardless of the activated carbon used,ranging from 350 mg/g to near zero highlighting recalcitrant NAs.The equilibrium data was explored to identify structural features of these species and key physiochemical properties that influence adsorption.We found that certainNAwill be resistant to adsorptionwhen hydrophobic adsorbents are used.Adsorption isotherm modelling helped explore interactions occurring at the interface between NA and adsorbent surfaces.We identified the importance of NA hydrophobicity for activated carbon uptake.Evidence is also presented that indicates favorable hydrogen bonding between certain NA and surface site hydroxyl groups,demonstrating the importance of adsorbent surface functionality for NA uptake.This research highlights the challenges associated with removing NAs from OSPW through adsorption and also identifies howadsorbent surface chemistry modification can be used to increase the removal efficiency of recalcitrant NA species.

文摘The factors affecting the oxidation degree of vanadium–titanium magnetite (VTM) pellets were analyzed via the isothermal oxidation experiment. Furthermore, the oxidation kinetics of VTM pellets were explored through linear fitting to the kinetic equations based on the shrinking unreacted-core model. The results reveal that VTM pellets undergo oxidation in three distinct phases: pre-oxidation, mid-oxidation, and final stable phase. Notably, the mid-oxidation phase is absent in magnetite oxidation. The shrinking unreacted-core model has been proven to be suitable for modeling the process of oxidizing VTM pellets. In the pre-oxidation stage, the rate-controlling step is determined by both the oxidation temperature and the effective oxygen concentration. The influence of the effective oxygen concentration on the rate of oxidation is more pronounced at temperatures between 1073 and 1273 K, especially when the oxygen content falls below 15 vol.%. For the production of oxidized VTM pellets, it is necessary to maintain a preheating temperature above 1173 K (to accelerate the oxidation reaction) and below 1473 K (to prevent the swift formation of compact Fe2TiO5 at the shell of the pellet) in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere.

文摘The isothermal oxidation kinetics of vanadium–titanium magnetite(VTM)pellets prepared with 3Co-binder(coal-based colloidal composite binder)and F-binder(pulverized Funa binder)are compared.The oxidation process was analyzed using the first-order irreversible reaction,following the shrinking unreacted nucleus model.The results demonstrate that VTM pellets prepared with 3Co-binder exhibit a faster oxidation rate than those with F-binder across the temperatures ranging from 1073 to 1473 K.In both cases,the oxidation process was controlled by an interfacial chemical reaction during the pre-oxidation stage and by internal diffusion during the mid-oxidation stage.The type of binder did not influence the primary oxidation control mechanism of the VTM pellets.However,the apparent rate constants in the pre-oxidation stage and the internal diffusion coefficients in the mid-oxidation stage were higher for pellets with 3Co-binder compared to those with F-binder.The apparent activation energies for the 3Co-binder pellets were similar to those of bentonite,indicating favorable kinetic conditions without negative impacts on the oxidation process.Nonetheless,it is important to note that pellets with F-binder required a longer oxidation time than those with 3Co-binder.

文摘In order to analyze the influences of storage aging on the safety of typical elemental explosives,the aged cyclotrimethylene trinitramine(RDX)and cyclotetramethylene tetranitramine(HMX)were prepared by isothermal aging tests.The reaction thresholds of aged RDX and HMX under any ignition probability were studied by Langlie-Optimal D method.The thermal decomposition characteristics of RDX and HMX after aging were analyzed by DSC and ARC.Experimental results showed that compared with unaged RDX and HMX,on the one hand,the critical impact energy and critical friction of RDX and HMX aged for 14,28,and 56 days are significantly reduced at an explosion probability of 50%,0.01%,and 0.0001%,respectively.With the increase of aging time,the mechanical sensitivity of RDX and HMX increases obviously.On the other hand,the initial decomposition temperature of RDX and HMX after 56 days of aging decreases,the decomposition heat decreases,the activation energy increases,and the reaction difficulty increases.

文摘As the fundamental unit of soil,aggregates exhibit significant variations in their abilities to adsorb and desorb trace elements,depending on their size.Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the characteristics of adsorption and desorption of cadmium(Cd),copper(Cu),and lead(Pb)on and from soil aggregate fractions from three layers of a calcareous soil profile in Changxing County,Zhejiang Prvince,China.The results showed that both Langmuir and Freundlich models successfully described the isothermal adsorption processes of single Cd,Cu,and Pb on different soil aggregates.Additionally,aggregates from the bottom soil layer showed the highest maximum adsorption capacity and required the lowest energy for Cd,Cu,and Pb adsorption compared to aggregates from upper soil layers.The physicochemical properties of soil aggregates were found to govern the adsorption and desorption processes of heavy metals rather than the aggregate size,wherein the contents of iron/aluminum oxides and organic matter were the most crucial influencing factors.Cadmium displayed higher mobility than Cu and Pb in different soil aggregates,and the maximum adsorption capacities of the metal ions followed the order of Pb>Cu>Cd,while their desorption rates followed the order of Cd>Cu>Pb.Additionally,the<0.053 mm microaggregates presented the lowest desorption rates for Cd,Cu,and Pb compared to other soil aggregate fractions in each soil layer.Furthermore,the orthogonal experiment results demonstrated that the competitive adsorption between metals occurred on soil aggregates in the ternary heavy metal system,but only the desorption of Pb was significantly affected by the coexistence of Cd and Cu.
