Strongly acidic wastewater generated from the molybdenum and copper smelting process is of great value for recycling sulfuric acid and valuable metals, such as rhenium (Re). Herein, a high Re(VII) (HReO 4 ) recovery efficiency of 99% within 35 min from strongly acidic wastewater was successfully achieved by using sulphide coupled with ultraviolet (UV) light, and soluble Re(VII) precipitated as Re 2 S 7 in this process. Mechanistic experiments showed that the intermediate Re-S species (i.e., HReO 3 S) was the dominant limitation responsible for Re(VII) precipitation in the dark, and UV irradiation dramatically accelerated the generation and conversion of HReO 3 S by inducing the formation of HS• and H•. The H• produced from the photodissociation of H 2 S promoted HReO 4 transformation to H 2 ReO 4 •, which rapidly reacted with HS• to produce HReO 3 S, accelerating the conversion of HReO 4 . The radical-induced acceleration can also take place during the HReO 3 S conversion by slowly introducing H 2 S into the strongly acidic wastewater to continuously produce H• and HS•. This work offers an insight into the improvement of Re(VII) recovery by UV light, which can be potentially applied into resource recovery from strongly acidic wastewater.

Recycling strongly acidic wastewater as diluted H 2 SO 4 after contaminants contained being removed was previously proposed, however, Cl(-I), a kind of contaminant contained in strongly acidic wastewater, is difficult to remove, which severely degrades the quality of recycled H 2 SO 4 . In this study, the removal of Cl(-I) using PbO 2 was investigated and the involved mechanisms were explored. The removal efficiency of Cl(-I) reached 93.38% at 50℃ when PbO 2 /Cl(-I) mole ratio reached 2:1. The identification of reaction products shows that Cl(-I) was oxidized to Cl 2 , and PbO 2 was reduced to PbSO 4 . Cl 2 was absorbed by NaOH to form NaClO, which was used for the regeneration of PbO 2 from the generated PbSO 4 . Cl(-I) was removed through two pathways, i.e., surface oxidation and •OH radical oxidation. •OH generated by the reaction of PbO 2 and OH − plays an important role in Cl(-I) removal. The regenerated PbO 2 had excellent performance to remove Cl(-I) after six-time regeneration. This study provided an in-depth understanding on the effective removal of Cl(-I) by the oxidation method.

Although various kinds of adsorbents have good uranium adsorption capacity, they still meet the challenge in capturing uranium under highly acidic condition. Therefore, efficiently extracting uranium under strong acidic condition become the pursuit of researchers. In this study, a new phytic acid decorated porous organic polymers (POPs) named MA-U-PA was prepared by synthesizing a organic framework (MA-U) using melamine and uracil and with subsequent phytic acid modification. The results showed that the excellent stability of the prepared organic framework and strong uranium chelating ability of phytic acid endowed the as-prepared material being an excellent adsorbent under strong acidic condition. The adsorption capacity achieved 106.7 mg·g -1 at the pH of 1 which was much higher than that of MA-U and most of other adsorbents. The study of modification mechanism confirmed that the hydrogen bonds interaction of phytic acid with MA-U lead to the successful modification. In addition, the phosphonate groups of PA was mainly the active groups chelated with uranium. Moreover, the uranium adsorption process of MA-U-PA was in accordance with the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isothermal model. The newly prepared phytic acid decorated porous organic material could achieve efficient uranium capturing from highly acidic nuclear wastewater.

In this paper, the Cu-Ce based catalyst using NbOPO 4 (Nb-P) as support was firstly employed for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO by NH 3 . The experimental results had illustrated that such catalyst exhibited well SCR activity and N 2 selectivity within a wide temperature range of 200–450 °C. These superior performances could be mainly attributed to its improved textural properties and strong acidity derived from NbOPO 4 support. More importantly, the sulfur tolerance of the NbOPO 4 supported Cu-Ce sample was found greatly improved compared to TiO 2 and Ti-Nb supported samples, where above 80% SCR activity of Cu-Ce/Nb-P sample was obtained at 250 °C after 10 h reaction running in the presence of 100 ppm SO 2 . This fact was the result of the enhanced acidity and the strong interactions between Cu-Ce oxides and NbOPO 4 support, which could prevent the surface oxygen species from sulfation by SO 2 . As such, these oxygen species strongly associated with NbOPO 4 support still could activate adsorbed NH 3 to fulfill the SCR reaction cycle, leading to its better sulfur resistance. The work would provide some enlightenments to the development of NH 3 -SCR catalysts with high sulfur resistance at medium-high temperature.

This study aimed to investigate the co-pyrolysis characteristics of strong-acid cation exchange resin (Amberlyst-15, denoted as A15) and cellulose (CE), in which the existing synergistic interaction effects were uncovered. Crucial variables including pyrolytic temperature, A15-to-CE mass ratio and heating rate were taken into consideration. The levoglucosenone (LGO) production from CE and inorganic sulfur-containing species release from functional sulfonic acid groups of A15 were enhanced in a temperature range of below 400 °C. In this regard, the LGO yield achieved approximately 7 wt% at 300 °C with A15-to-CE mass ratio of 1:1. Relatively, elevating the temperature and heating rate accelerated the A15 self-decomposition and small molecule fragments restructuring to give much more monocyclic and polycyclic aromatics. Noticeably, organic sulfur-containing compounds also were produced in an unignorable amount of 8.2% under preset conditions of pyrolytic temperature of 700 °C and heating rate of 20,000 °C/s. The plausible pathway for the co-pyrolysis transformation of A15 and CE was also proposed on the basis of experimental results. The present work will provide a probable and feasible strategy for the high-value utilization of biomass and waste ion-exchange resins, particularly in the aspect of the generation of certain chemicals.

Amorphous silica-aluminas with enhanced Brønsted acidity have been successfully synthesized via a novel acetic acid based sol-gel process. The resulting amorphous silica-aluminas possess an irregular spherical morphology, homogeneously element dispersion, and a high external surface area in the range of 374–594 m 2 /g with little contribution from micropores. By simply adjusting the molar Si/Al ratio in the synthesis precursor solution from 0.5 to 2.0, the total Brønsted acid site density firstly increases and then slightly decreases, consistent with the trend of summarized molar content of four and five-coordinated aluminum species. Among them, the amorphous silica-alumina with initial Si/Al ratio of 1.5 exhibits the highest Brønsted acid site density, and its supported Pt catalyst performs the highest activity resembling that of HBeta-based catalyst in the hydroisomerization of n-hexadecane. Meanwhile, a superior catalytic selectivity to multibranched isomers was received over the amorphous silica-alumina without strong Brønsted acid sites. Moreover, a remarkable stability (>2000 h) was also achieved in the hydrocracking of Fischer-Tropsch wax under industrially relevant reaction conditions. This sol-gel synthesis process provides a facile method to prepare amorphous silica-aluminas with outstanding texture and acid properties for catalytic refining in petrochemical fields.

Developing adsorbents capable of extracting rare earth element (REE) in harsh acidic solution is a challenging issue in the recycle of REE from secondary resources. In this work, porous polystyrene resin was facile modified with tris(2-aminoethyl)amine followed by methylenebis(phosphonic dichloride) to create a polydentate phosphonate-functionalized adsorbent for this purpose. The adsorption properties of four REE ions (Ce 3+ , Nd 3+ , Gd 3+ , and Dy 3+ ) were investigated in terms of affinity constants, selectivity, and recovery. The adsorption mechanism of adsorbent for REE ions is regarded as the strong chelation interaction provided by the phosphonate ligand, which was verified by the experiments of acid and salt effects, thermodynamic and kinetic analysis. By using the diluted digest solution of a permanent magnet as model of strong acidic sample (1 mol/L HCl), the batch adsorption method generates high recovery ranging from 58.1 to 100% toward five REE ions (Y 3+ , Ce 3+ , Nd 3+ , Gd 3+ , and Dy 3+ ), while the simulated continuous column bed enhances their total contents from 35.4% in the original digest solution to 88.9% in the eluent. In conclusion, the adsorbent indicates an excellent extraction ability in harsh acidic solution, and the recycle of REE using this adsorbent can predictably reduce alkali consumption to neutralize digest solution of secondary resources and improve greenness in manufacture.

The solvent extraction and separation process of Sc(III) and Fe(III) from a strongly acidic and highly concentrated ferric solution using mixtures of di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate (D2EHPA) and tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) in sulfonated kerosene was studied. The effects of various parameters, including D2EHPA concentration, dosage of TBP, and phase ratio, were investigated for the extraction process. The results indicated that the extraction rate of Sc(III) was 99.72% with 1.09% Fe(III) co-extracted after two stages of counter-current extraction under optimal conditions. Moreover, saturation capacity and slope analysis were used to determine the reaction mechanism. Sc(III) is extracted in the form of HSc(SO 4 ) 2 ·4HL. Further separation of Sc(III) and Fe(III) was realized in a scrubbing and stripping process. First, 98.67% of the co-extracted iron in the loaded organic phase was scrubbed with a dilute HCl solution by a three-stage counter-current scrubbing. Then, 85.00% of Sc(III) can be stripped efficiently with a 2-mol/L NaOH solution saturated in 1-mol/L NaCl by three-stage cross-current stripping.

A novel type of modified pyrolytic carbon (TOPO@PyC) was successfully prepared through incorporating tri-n-octyl phosphine oxide (TOPO). The adsorption behavior of TOPO@PyC for Th (IV) under strongly acidic conditions was investigated. The TOPO@PyC exhibited rapid Th(IV) adsorption rate with equilibrium time of 40 min. In 0.1–8 mol/l HNO 3 , the Th(IV) adsorption capacity reached between 43 and 50 mg/g. The adsorption kinetics and adsorption process of TOPO@PyC for Th(IV) can be well explained through the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isothermal adsorption model. The temperature exhibited only a minor influence on Th(IV) adsorption capacity. The microstructure and adsorption mechanism of TOPO@PyC was characterized and elucidated through various techniques including SEM-EDS, BET, TGA, FT-IR, XPS and DFT calculations. By coordinating with O atom on TOPO, Th(IV) was successfully complexed on TOPO@PyC in a ratio of 1:3. Furthermore, TOPO@PyC manifested good thermal stability and acid resistance. After five times, the Th(IV) adsorption and desorption efficiency of TOPO@PyC still exceeded 95 %. Additionally, TOPO@PyC exhibited stronger selectivity towards Th(IV) from mixed solutions. Remarkably, it recovered over 90 % of thorium and uranium from the leachate of tantalum slag. Consequently, TOPO@PyC holds considerable promise in the treatment of strongly acidic wastewater containing thorium and uranium.

In the dehydration of fructose to 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF), in situ produced water weakens the acid strength of the catalyst and causes the rehydration of HMF, causing unsatisfactory catalytic activity and selectivity. In this work, a class of benzenesulfonic acid-grafted metal–organic frameworks with strong acidity and hydrophobicity is obtained by the direct sulfonation method using 4-chlorobenzenesulfonic acid as sulfonating agent. The resultant MOFs have a specific surface area of greater than 250 m 2 ·g −1 , acid density above 1.0 mmol·g −1 , and water contact angle up to 129°. The hydrophobic MOF-PhSO 3 H exhibits both higher catalytic activity and selectivity than MOF-SO 3 H in the HMF synthesis due to its better hydrophobicity and olephilicity. Moreover, the catalyst has a high recycled stability. At last, fructose is completely converted, and 98.0% yield of HMF is obtained under 120 °C in a DMSO solvent system. The successful preparation of the hydrophobic acidic MOF provides a novel hydrophobic catalyst for the synthesis of HMF.

Efficient uranium removal from strongly acidic nuclear waste is crucial for sustainable nuclear energy, yet extreme acidity greatly challenges extraction. In order to provide a solution for uranium removal from strongly acidic waste, a phosphonic acid polymer, P(VPA-TEGDMA), was synthesized via solvothermal copolymerization of vinylphosphonic acid (VPA) and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA). P(VPA-TEGDMA) demonstrated exceptional acid stability and outstanding adsorption performance for uranium in strongly acidic conditions. P(VPA-TEGDMA) achieved a maximum uranium adsorption capacity of 339.6 mg·g–1 in 4 mol L–1 HNO3, surpassing most reported adsorbents. In addition, the adsorbent exhibited good selectivity and maintained a high adsorption performance for uranium after 5 adsorption–desorption cycles. An adsorption mechanism study revealed that uranyl ions were coordinated tightly by P═O groups in the polymer. This work offers insights for designing robust phosphonic acid polymer adsorbents for uranium extraction to tackle nuclear waste management challenges in highly acidic environments.

The strong acidic cationic exchange fiber (SACEF) was used to adsorb yohimbine from alcoholic solution. Batch experiments were performed to examine the effects of adsorbent dosage, solution pH and temperature in the adsorption process. The thermodynamics and kinetics of adsorption were also analyzed. The optimum yohimbine adsorption onto the SACEF was found at pH = 5 of solution and equilibrium could be attained within 20 min. The equilibrium adsorption data were preferably modeled with the Freundlich isotherm model and the thermodynamic parameters were calculated to be: 11.99 kJ/mol < Δ H < 13.72 kJ/mol, −21.17 kJ/mol < Δ G < −17.87 kJ/mol and 63.18 J/mol K < Δ S < 65.60 J/mol K. The results demonstrated that the adsorption was an endothermic, spontaneous and feasible process of physisorption . Meanwhile, yohimbine adsorption on SACEF fitted well to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the adsorption rate was limited by film diffusion. The activation energy Ea was calculated to be 14.39 kJ/mol. Furthermore, the surface morphologies of the SACEF before and after yohimbine adsorption were analyzed by SEM and the adsorption mechanism was discussed by FTIR analysis. SACEF could effectively adsorb yohimbine from alcoholic solution and could be used repeatedly for more than five cycles.
