Spent adsorbents often contain harmful substances, which may have an impact on the ecological environment if these substances enter the environment. This study mainly introduces a safe treatment method for solid waste formed after heavy metal ions are adsorbed by an efficient adsorbent, ZIF-8@GO-COOH. This work mainly discusses the impact of solidifying the spent adsorbent in the cement system on the cement mechanical properties and hydration process. The experimental results showed that when the dosage of the spent adsorbent was 0.01%, 0.02%, 0.03%, and 0.04%, respectively, the compressive strength of 28 d was increased by 4.24%, 6.16%, 7.19%, and 8.87%, respectively, compared with the cement without spent adsorbent. Introducing spent ZIF-8@GO-COOH in the cement production process does not have a negative impact on the cement mechanical properties, and can refine the cement pore structure and dense microstructure, thereby improving the compressive strength. The Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) results showed that solidifying the spent adsorbent with cement can effectively reduce the leaching of heavy metal ions in the spent adsorbent. This study solidifies the spent ZIF-8@GO-COOH nanoadsorbent material into the cement system as a sustainable alternative to landfilling. This treatment method has certain economic benefits and safety, and has some reference significance for promoting the development and improvement of spent adsorbents and improving their safe treatment and reuse.
The rapid development of microelectronic devices has increased the demand for miniature energy storage systems that are highly safe and exhibit long cycling life and excellent energy density. However, the lack of low-cost and high-performance fabrication methods presents a significant challenge to thin-film electrode fabrication. This study reports a strategy combining controllable pre-curing treatment with rapid thermal annealing (RTA), which enables in situ fabrication of high-quality sodium vanadium phosphate [Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 ] thin films. RTA facilitates the cleavage of weak metal–O bonds in the precursor film, whereas optimisation of the pre-curing duration (0–100 s) effectively eliminates organic residues and strengthens the carbon framework, suppressing particle agglomeration. This synergistic control substantially improves crystallization uniformity and film densification, resulting in a refined grain structure and highly oriented crystal facets. Under optimal conditions, the thin film demonstrates a high specific capacity of 85.6 mAh g −1 at a current density of 1 A g −1 , retains 72.5 mAh g −1 even at 20 A g −1 , and demonstrates 90.3 % capacity retention after 200 cycles. Moreover, the assembled full sodium-ion cell exhibits an average operating voltage of 1.3 V while maintaining 94.2 % capacity retention after 500 cycles. This study elucidates for the first time the synergistic regulation pathway of the pre-curing–RTA coupling mechanism in Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 thin-film fabrication and proposes an advanced preparation strategy for cost-effective, highly integrated, high-power sodium-ion thin-film devices, providing critical theoretical foundations and robust technical support for next-generation all–solid state sodium microbattery design and development.
