The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using a variety of techniques, including Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), and Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM). These characterizations confirmed the successful formation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The FTIR spectra identified characteristic peaks corresponding to the functional groups present, and XRD analysis, using Scherer’s equation, determined an average crystalline size of 1.2 nm for the Fe3O4 nanoparticles. TGA results demonstrated the thermal stability of the nanoparticles, SEM imaging revealed distinct honeycomb-like structures for the nanoparticles synthesized with water as the solvent, while the VSM analysis was used to determine the magnetic behavior of the nanoparticles.展开更多

In this study, a novel magnetic composite MZLCO was prepared by hybridizing amorphous Zr-La (carbonate) oxides (ZLCO) with nano-FeOthrough a one-pot solvothermal method for efficient phosphate adsorption. Our optimum sample of MZLCO-45 exhibited a high Langmuir maximum adsorption capacity of 96.16 mg P/g and performed well even at low phosphate concentration. The phosphate adsorption kinetics by MZLCO-45 fitted well with the pseudo-second-order model, and the adsorption capacity could reach 79% of the ultimate value within the first 60 min. The phosphate adsorption process was highly p H-dependent, and MZLCO-45 performed well over a wide p H range of 2.0-8.0. Moreover, MZLCO-45 showed a strong selectivity to phosphate in the presence of competing ions (Cl^(-), NO_(3)^(-), SO_(4)^(2-), HCO_(3)^(-), Ca^(2+), and Mg^(2+)) and a good reusability using the eluent of Na OH/Na Cl mixture, then 64% adsorption capacity remained after ten recycles. The initial 2.0 mg P/L in municipal wastewater and surface water could be efficiently reduced to below 0.1mg P/L by 0.07 g/L MZLCO-45, and the phosphate removal efficiencies were 95.7% and 96.21%, respectively. Phosphate adsorption mechanisms by MZLCO-45 could be attributed to electrostatic attraction and the inner-sphere complexation via ligand exchange forming Zr/La-O-P, -OH and CO_(3)^(2-)groups on MZLCO-45 surface played important roles in the ligand exchange process. The existence of oxygen vacancies could accelerate the phosphate absorption rate of the MZLCO-45 composites.展开更多

High magnetic hematite a-Fe2O3 nanowires are successfully grown on Fe0.5Ni0.5 alloy substrates via an oxide assisted vapor-solid process. Experimental results also indicate that previous immersion of the substrates in a solution of oxalic acid causes the grown nanowires to convert gradually into magnetite （Fe3O4） nanowires. Additionally, the saturated state of Fe3O4 nanowires is achieved as the oxalic acid concentration reaches 0.75 mol/L. The average diameter and length of nanowires expands with an increasing operation temperature and the growth density of nanowires accumulates with an increasing gas flux in the vapor-solid process. The growth mechanism of a-Fe2O3 and Fe3O4 nanowires is also discussed. The results demonstrate that the entire synthesis of nanowires can be completed within 2 h.展开更多

Electrochemical properties and Cr-poisoning behavior of LNF-GDC cathodes were studied. Single phase perovskite LNF could be obtained at the glycine to nitrate molar ratio of 1：1. The polarization resistance of the LNF-GDC nanocomposite cathode was significantly decreased in comparison with the LNF. This phenomenon was associated with enhanced catalytic activity and enlarged triple-phase boundary （TPB） length by GDC nano particles. In addition, the nanocomposite cathode showed good Cr tolerance under open circuit condition. The LNF-GDC nanocomposite cathodes were expected for use as a potential cathode in intermediate- temperature solid oxide fuel cells （IT-SOFC）.展开更多

Their structures were char- acterized with X-ray diffraction （XRD）, laser Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）, temperature-programmed reduction （TPR） and X-ray absorption fine structure （XAFS） spectroscopy. Both XRD and Raman spectroscopy only detect the existence of Co3O4 crystallites in all catalysts. However, XPS results indicate that excess Co2＋ ions are present on the surface of Co3O4 in Co3O4（200）/Si02 as compared with bulk Co3O4. Meanwhile, TPR results suggest the presence of surface oxygen vacancies on Co3O4 in Co3O4（200）/SiO2, and XAFS results demonstrate that Co3O4 in Co3O4（200）/SIO2 contains excess Co2＋. Increasing calcination temperature results in oxidation of excess Co2＋ and the decrease of the concentration of surface oxygen vacancies, consequently the for- mation of stoichiometric Co3O4 on supported catalysts. Among all Co3O4/SiO2 catalysts, Co3O4（200）/SiO2 exhibits the best catalytic performance towards CO oxidation, demonstrating that excess Co2＋ and surface oxygen vacancies can enhance the catalytic activity of Co3O4 towards CO oxidation. These results nicely demonstrate the effect of calcination temperature on the structure and catalytic performance towards CO oxidation of silicasupported Co3O4 catalysts and highlight the important role of surface oxygen vacancies on Co3O4.展开更多

By comparing Fe3O4 NPs with average diameters of 11, 20, and 150 nm, we found that the catalytic activity increases with the reduced nanoparticle size. The electrochemical method to characterize the catalytic activity of Fe3O4 NPs using the response currents of the reaction product and substrate was also developed.展开更多

The effects of ore particle size, reaction temperature and the sum concentration of ammonium ion and ammonia on the leaching efficiency of zinc were examined. The leaching kinetics of low-grade zinc oxide ore in NH3-NH4Cl-H2O system follows the kinetic law of shrinking-core model. The results show that diffusion through the inert particle pores is the leaching kinetics rate controlling step. The calculated apparent activation energy of the process is about 7.057 kJ/mol. The leaching efficiency of zinc is 92.1% under the conditions of ore particle size of 69 μm, holding at 80 ℃ for 60 min, sum ammonia concentration of 7.5 mol/L, the molar ratio of ammonium to ammonia being 2-1, and the ratio (g/mL) of solid to liquid being 1-10.展开更多

The addition of a small amount of Sm into Co3O4 led to an improvement in the catalytic activity for both reactions. Co0.98Sm0. 02 and Co0.95Sm0.05, the two samples with Co/Sm molar ratio of 0.98/0.02 and 0.95/0.05 in sequence, showed the similar and the highest activity for CH4 oxidation, with CH4 complete conversion at 450 ℃. In contrast, Coo.90Smo l0 was the most active sample for CO oxidation, with CO complete conversion at 120 ℃. The catalysts were characterized by techniques of N2 adsor- tion-desorption with Brunauer-Emmett-Teller technique （N2-BET）, X-ray powder diffraction （XRD）, thermal gravity analy- sis-differential scanning calorimetry （TGA-DSC）, Hz temperature programmed reduction （H2-TPR） and X-ray photoelectron spec- troscopy analysis （XPS）. Compared with pure Co3O4, for CO1-xSmx catalysts with 0.02≤x≤0.10, the addition of a small amount of Sm resulted in the formation of spinel Co3O4 and amorphous SmCoO3, hence increasing the number of Co3＋ and the active surface oxygen species, which was responsible for the improvement of the activity. C00.95Sm0.05 catalyst showed not only high thermal stability and activity but also good reaction durability in the presence of 5% water vapor for CH4 oxidation.展开更多

文摘Co3O4/SiO2 catalysts for CO oxidation were prepared by conventional incipient wetness impregnation followed by calcination at various temperatures. Their structures were char- acterized with X-ray diffraction （XRD）, laser Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）, temperature-programmed reduction （TPR） and X-ray absorption fine structure （XAFS） spectroscopy. Both XRD and Raman spectroscopy only detect the existence of Co3O4 crystallites in all catalysts. However, XPS results indicate that excess Co2＋ ions are present on the surface of Co3O4 in Co3O4（200）/Si02 as compared with bulk Co3O4. Meanwhile, TPR results suggest the presence of surface oxygen vacancies on Co3O4 in Co3O4（200）/SiO2, and XAFS results demonstrate that Co3O4 in Co3O4（200）/SIO2 contains excess Co2＋. Increasing calcination temperature results in oxidation of excess Co2＋ and the decrease of the concentration of surface oxygen vacancies, consequently the for- mation of stoichiometric Co3O4 on supported catalysts. Among all Co3O4/SiO2 catalysts, Co3O4（200）/SiO2 exhibits the best catalytic performance towards CO oxidation, demonstrating that excess Co2＋ and surface oxygen vacancies can enhance the catalytic activity of Co3O4 towards CO oxidation. These results nicely demonstrate the effect of calcination temperature on the structure and catalytic performance towards CO oxidation of silicasupported Co3O4 catalysts and highlight the important role of surface oxygen vacancies on Co3O4.

文摘Peroxidase-like catalytic properties of Fe3O4 nanoparficles （NPs） with three different sizes, synthesized by chemical coprecipitation and sol-gel methods, were investigated by UV-vis spectrum analysis. By comparing Fe3O4 NPs with average diameters of 11, 20, and 150 nm, we found that the catalytic activity increases with the reduced nanoparticle size. The electrochemical method to characterize the catalytic activity of Fe3O4 NPs using the response currents of the reaction product and substrate was also developed.

文摘We prepared the Fe3O4/g‐C3N4nanoparticles(NPs)through a simple electrostatic self‐assembly method with a3:97weight ratio to investigate their Fenton,photo‐Fenton and oxidative functionalities besides photocatalytic functionality.We observed an improvement of the Fenton and photo‐Fenton activities of the Fe3O4/g‐C3N4nanocomposites.This improvement was attributed to efficient charge transfer between Fe3O4and g‐C3N4at the heterojunctions,inhibition of electron‐hole recombination,a high surface area,and stabilization of Fe3O4against leaching by the hydrophobic g‐C3N4.The obtained NPs showed a higher degradation potential for rhodamine B(RhB)dye than those of Fe3O4and g‐C3N4.As compared to photocatalysis,the efficiency of RhB degradation in the Fenton and photo‐Fenton reactions was increased by20%and90%,respectively.Additionally,the horseradish peroxidase(HRP)activity of the prepared nanomaterials was studied with3,3,5,5‐tetramethylbenzidinedihydrochloride(TMB)as a substrate.Dopamine oxidation was also examined.Results indicate that Fe3O4/g‐C3N4nanocomposites offers more efficient degradation of RhB dye in a photo‐Fenton system compared with regular photocatalytic degradation,which requires a long time.Our study also confirmed that Fe3O4/g‐C3N4nanocomposites can be used as a potential material for mimicking HRP owing to its high affinity for TMB.These findings suggest good potential for applications in biosensing and as a catalyst in oxidation reactions.

文摘The leaching kinetics of low grade zinc oxide ore in NH3-NH4Cl-H2O system was studied. The effects of ore particle size, reaction temperature and the sum concentration of ammonium ion and ammonia on the leaching efficiency of zinc were examined. The leaching kinetics of low-grade zinc oxide ore in NH3-NH4Cl-H2O system follows the kinetic law of shrinking-core model. The results show that diffusion through the inert particle pores is the leaching kinetics rate controlling step. The calculated apparent activation energy of the process is about 7.057 kJ/mol. The leaching efficiency of zinc is 92.1% under the conditions of ore particle size of 69 μm, holding at 80 ℃ for 60 min, sum ammonia concentration of 7.5 mol/L, the molar ratio of ammonium to ammonia being 2-1, and the ratio (g/mL) of solid to liquid being 1-10.

文摘A series of Co3O4-CeO2 binary oxides with various Co/(Ce+Co)molar ratios were synthesized using a citric acid method,and their catalytic properties toward the total oxidation of propane were examined.The activities of the catalysts decrease in the order CoCeOx-70>CoCeOx-90>Co3O4>CoCeOx-50>CoCeOx-20>CeO2.CoCeOx-70(Co/(Ce+Co)=70% molar ratio)exhibits the highest catalytic activity toward the total oxidation of propane,of which the T90 is 310℃(GHSV=120000 mL h^-1 g^-1],which is 25℃ lower than that of pure Co3 O4.The enhancement of the catalytic performance of CoCeOx-70 is attributed to the strong interaction between CeO2 and Co3O4,the improvement of the low-temperature reducibility,and the increase in the number of active oxygen species.In-situ DRIFTS and reaction kinetics measurement reveal that Ce addition does not change the reaction mechanism,but promotes the adsorption and activation of propane on the catalyst surface.The addition of water vapor and CO2 in reactant gas has a negative effect on the propane conversion,and the catalyst is more sensitive to water vapor than to CO2.In addition,CoCeOx-70 exhibits excellent stability and reusability in water vapor and CO2 atmosphere.

文摘Induration process of oxidized pellets involves the oxidation of Fe3O4 and re-crystallization of Fe2O3.The oxidation process of Fe3O4 is significant for pellets to obtain better ambient strength.Thus,the effect of MgO on oxidation process of Fe3O4 was investigated.The unreacted core model was applied to analyze the oxidizing induration process of pellets.The experimental results show that MgO plays a negative role in the oxidation process of Fe3O4.The oxidation rate of Fe3O4 in MgO-fluxed pellets（95.0% Fe3O4 ＋5.0% MgO）is slower than that in standard acid pellets（100% Fe3O4）.The relation between oxidation ratio of Fe3O4 and time was calculated based on the unreacted core model for both MgO-fluxed pellets and standard acid pellets.According to verification experiments,the values calculated by model coincide well with the experimental values.Therefore,the unreacted core model could be applied to describe the oxidizing induration process of pellets.

文摘A series of CO3O4 spinel catalysts modified by Sm were prepared by co-precipitation method and tested for CH4 and CO oxidation. The addition of a small amount of Sm into Co3O4 led to an improvement in the catalytic activity for both reactions. Co0.98Sm0. 02 and Co0.95Sm0.05, the two samples with Co/Sm molar ratio of 0.98/0.02 and 0.95/0.05 in sequence, showed the similar and the highest activity for CH4 oxidation, with CH4 complete conversion at 450 ℃. In contrast, Coo.90Smo l0 was the most active sample for CO oxidation, with CO complete conversion at 120 ℃. The catalysts were characterized by techniques of N2 adsor- tion-desorption with Brunauer-Emmett-Teller technique （N2-BET）, X-ray powder diffraction （XRD）, thermal gravity analy- sis-differential scanning calorimetry （TGA-DSC）, Hz temperature programmed reduction （H2-TPR） and X-ray photoelectron spec- troscopy analysis （XPS）. Compared with pure Co3O4, for CO1-xSmx catalysts with 0.02≤x≤0.10, the addition of a small amount of Sm resulted in the formation of spinel Co3O4 and amorphous SmCoO3, hence increasing the number of Co3＋ and the active surface oxygen species, which was responsible for the improvement of the activity. C00.95Sm0.05 catalyst showed not only high thermal stability and activity but also good reaction durability in the presence of 5% water vapor for CH4 oxidation.

文摘Advanced oxidation processes are widely applied to removal of persistent toxic substances from wastewater by hydroxyl radicals(·OH),which is generated from hydrogen peroxide(H2O2)decomposition.However,their practical applications have been hampered by many strict conditions,such as iron sludge,rigid pH condition,large doses of hydrogen peroxide and Fe^2+,etc.Herein,a magnetically recyclable Fe3O4@polydopamine(Fe3O4@PDA)coreshell nanocomposite was fabricated.As an excellent reducing agent,it can convert Fe^3+to Fe^2+.Combined with the coordination of polydopamine and ferric ions,the production of iron sludge is inhibited.The minimum concentration of hydrogen peroxide(0.2 mmol/L and Fe^2+(0.18 mmol/L))is 150-fold and 100-fold lower than that of previous reports,respectively.It also exhibits excellent degradation performance over a wide pH range from 3.0 to 9.0.Even after the tenth recycling,it still achieves over 99%degradation efficiency with the total organic carbon degradation rate of 80%,which is environmentally benign and has a large economic advantage.This discovery paves a way for extensive practical application of advanced oxidation processes,especially in environmental remediation.
