In this work, we propose a novel, effective, energy efficient technology to reduce CO 2 emissions and fully use the calcium in the solid waste by-product phosphogypsum (PG), by capturing CO 2 from the PG decomposition product’s hydrolysis solution. Experiments were conducted to investigate the technical feasibility and the influence of temperature and CO 2 partial pressure on CO 2 capture, as well as CO 2 loading on CO 2 sorption capacity. The results showed that > 90 % of the total calcium ions in the solution were converted into calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ). Furthermore, a decrease in temperature and an increase in CO 2 partial pressure improved CO 2 uptake, with the latter having a greater effect on CO 2 capture capacity than the former. Moreover, kinetic analysis demonstrated that a higher temperature and CO 2 partial pressure increased the absorption rate; and showed that the CO 2 absorption rate is highly affected by the CO 2 loading levels. The thermodynamic analysis indicated that CO 2 absorption heat significantly declined as a function of increasing CO 2 loading. CaO from the calcination of carbonate was added to the hydrolysis solution and significantly enhanced its CO 2 capture ability. Thus, the hydrolyate of PG decomposition products in combination with CaO reinforcement may be a promising method for CO 2 capture.

Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) for selective extraction of p -hydroxybenzoic acid ( p -HB) was synthesized by suspension polymerization using p -HB as template, 4-vinyl pyridine as functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as crosslinker. As characterized by scanning electron microscopy, the MIP particles are spherical, with size ranging from 1 to 8 μm. Compared with the non-imprinted polymer (NIP), the MIP shows higher binding capacity toward p -HB: maximum binding capacity for p -HB being 8.07 μmol g −1 over MIP and 3.88 μmol g −1 over NIP. The adsorption of p -HB on MIP follows the Freundlich model and displays pseudo-second-order kinetics. The results of selective and competitive binding experiments confirm that the molecularly imprinted sites have excellent recognition ability toward p -HB. The results reveal that the MIP is a promising adsorbent for selective extraction of p -HB from water samples. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136 , 46984.

In this paper, we synthesized a polyglycerol(PG)-mediated superparamagnetic graphene oxide nanocomposite called MGON, consisting of PG-modified superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) covalently bonded to PG-functionalized graphene oxide (GO). MGON exhibits better dispersibility and colloidal stability in aqueous solution than the magnetic graphene oxide reported in the literature. The physicochemical properties of MGON were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and UV-vis spectroscopy. Applied to the adsorption of tetracycline (TC) in aqueous solution as an adsorbent, the MGON showed excellent adsorption performance with the maximum adsorption capacity of 684.93 mg/g at 298 K. Adsorption kinetics and isotherm results indicate that the adsorption process conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm models. Adsorption thermodynamics has confirmed that the adsorption process of TC on MGON is spontaneous and endothermic. With the increase of temperature, the adsorption capacity of MGON increases continuously, and the adsorption capacity of MGON is the largest when the pH value is 7. Furthermore, the π-π and cation-π interaction, amidation reaction, and hydrogen bonding can be used to explain the adsorption mechanism of TC on MGON. Desorption and regeneration experiments showed that MGON still had 67.65% regenerative performance after five cycles. Hence, MGON is a promising adsorbent in the removal of tetracycline from wastewater.

Transition trimetallic sulfide NiCoMn–S attracts great attention due to its high specific capacity for hybrid supercapacitors , as well as Ti 3 C 2 is considered essentially as a potential new electrode material with iconic two-dimensional layered structure and excellent conductivity. Herein, NiCoMn–S nanoparticles are composited with two-dimensional layered Ti 3 C 2 via simple one-step hydrothermal method , which is first applied as positive electrode in hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs). A large number of NiCoMn–S nanoparticles distribute on the surface of Ti 3 C 2 and even insert into the Ti 3 C 2 layers, providing abundant electrochemical active sites for redox reaction and enhancing the mechanical stability for composites. Moreover, the NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 composites show lower charge-transfer resistance than pure NiCoMn–S, illustrating that the two-dimensional layered structure of Ti 3 C 2 improve the conductivity and supply additional electronic channels for ion transportation. The NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 -3.4% delivers a specific capacity of 347.1 C g −1 at a specific density of 1 A g −1 , which is 28% higher than that of pure NiCoMn–S (270.2 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 ). Finally, a hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) is assembled by using NiCoMn–S/Ti 3 C 2 -3.4% as positive electrode and RGO as negative electrode, realizing a specific capacity of 164.3 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 and high specific energy of 16.2 Wh kg −1 at a specific power of 15 kW kg −1 .

Developing effective catalysts for hydrogen evolution from hydrolysis of ammonia borane (AB) is of great significance considering the useful applications of hydrogen. Herein, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) prepared through the simply pyrolysis of urea was employed as a support for Rh nanoparticles (NPs) stabilization. The in-situ generated Rh NPs supported on g-C 3 N 4 with an average size of 3.1 nm were investigated as catalysts for hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of AB under mild conditions. The Rh/g-C 3 N 4 catalyst exhibits a high turnover frequency of 969 mol H 2 · (min·mol Rh ) −1 and a low activation energy of 24.2 kJ/mol. The results of the kinetic studies show that the catalytic hydrolysis of AB over the Rh/g-C 3 N 4 catalyst is a zero-order reaction with the AB concentration and a first-order reaction with the Rh concentration. This work demonstrates that g-C 3 N 4 is a useful support to design and synthesis of effective Rh-based catalyst for hydrogen-based applications.

In recent years, increasing environmental awareness and human skin protection from harmful radiation of the sun has attracted attention amongst numerous researchers. Here, a simple strategy was developed to enhance the hydrophilicity and ultraviolet (UV) protection of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) knitted fabric surface via grafting green cowpea protein (CP) with gum arabic modified epoxy (GAE) as a cross-linking agent. Chemical grafting between pretreated PET and GAE as well as between GAE and CP improved the hydrophilicity and UV protection of PET knitted Fabric. The enhanced surface wettability was confirmed by the decreased water contact angle from 135° to zero °. Moreover, the UV protection factor rating of modified PET knitted fabric was higher, indicating that the modifier layer caused scattering and absorbance of UV light. This approach has shown promising results for improving hydrophilicity and UV protection with sustained mechanical durability of 7 washing cycles.

Understanding the effect of the atmosphere on the release of alkali and alkaline-earth metals (AAEM) during oxy-fuel combustion is important for the development of oxy-fuel combustion technologies with reduced problems with particulate formation and corrosion. To this end, we examined the release behavior of AAEM during oxy-fuel combustion in different gas environments. A drop-tube reactor and ion chromatography were used to investigate the release rates of AAEM. Our results show that the release rates of Na and K were higher than those of Ca and Mg in all types of gas environments. Experimental conditions that favor combustion, namely, higher temperature, higher oxygen content, and longer residence time, markedly increased the release rates of Na and K, whereas changes in the release rates of Ca and Mg were much smaller. The presence of SO 2 in the atmosphere suppressed the release of AAEM via formation of sulfates, whereas the presence of H 2 O promoted it. A synergistic effect of H 2 O and SO 2 on the release of AAEM during oxy-fuel combustion was observed.

A series of pyrrolo[2,3,4-kl]acridin-1-one derivatives were successfully synthesized from facile materials (enaminone and isatin) using a reusable solid acid as catalyst in water. A variety of structurally diverse enaminones and various isatins bearing different functional groups tolerated the reaction and gave the corresponding goal products with good to excellent yields. Advantages of this strategy include the mild conditions, operational simplicity, being convenient and environmentally benign, and the reusability of the heterogeneous catalyst. A mechanism was proposed to explain the formation of different substituted pyrrolo[2,3,4-kl]acridin-1-one derivatives.

Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 nanocrystals with different content of dopant were successfully prepared via a facile hydrothermal method. The purity, morphology, element distribution, chemical state and up-conversion (UC) photoluminescence (PL) of PbTiO 3 nanocrystals affected by Ho 3+ dopant are investigated systematically. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results illustrate that PbTiO 3 samples with the doping Ho 3+ concentration ranging from 0 to 5 mol-% are perovskite structure. The doping Ho 3+ ions have no change on the crystal structure of perovskite PbTiO 3 . Owing to the non-equivalent substitution of Ho 3+ to Ti 4+ in PbTiO 3 , the particle size of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 samples is decreased as well as the particle agglomeration is detected. Moreover, Ho and Yb ions have uniform distributions in the PbTiO 3 nanoparticles as the presence of Ho 3+ and Yb 3+ cations. The up-conversion spectra demonstrate that Ho/Yb co-doped PbTiO 3 samples have up-conversion emissions centered at 550 nm, 660 nm and 755 nm, corresponding to the transitions of 5 F 4 ( 5 S 2 )→ 5 I 8 , 5 F 5 → 5 I 8 and 5 S 2 ( 5 F 4 )→ 5 I 7 of Ho 3+ ions. Additionally, the effect of temperature on the UC PL property of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 system is further investigated. The sensitivity and the trend of Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 samples in temperature from 298 k to 493K are calculated on the basis of fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) method. Ho 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped PbTiO 3 nanocrystals are verified the high potential in the optical temperature sensing.

The conventional separation technologies, like chemical precipitation and adsorption processes, cannot quickly and selectively separate and recycle heavy metal ions from waste. Due to its rich sulfur content and excellent electrical conductivity, vanadium disulfide is a potential material for effectively removing lead from wastewater. The vanadium disulfide material with selective adsorption ability was introduced into CDI technology to construct a coupling technology with both advantages. The N -doped modified ZIF@vanadium disulfide (ZAC@VS 2 ) composites were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method. Electrosorption experiments show that ZAC@VS 2 material presents the remarkable saturated adsorption capacity to lead(II) ions (239.52 mg/g) in the 500 mg/L PbCl 2 solution. In the triplex blend system (Fe 3+ /Pb 2+ /Na + ) with each solute density of 100 mg/L, the saturated adsorption efficiency of 85.4% to Pb 2+ can still be maintained. In addition, compared with the Langmuir(R 2 =0.873) adsorption isotherm model, the Freundlich model (R 2 =0.922) can be better used to fit the adsorption process, which proves that the adsorption process is multilayered and heterogeneous. XPS tests and competitive adsorption experiments show that the electric double layer (EDL) and complexation together promote the selective adsorption of heavy metal ions by ZAC@VS 2 . ZAC@VS 2 composite electrode shows excellent performance in the removal of lead ions in battery waste liquid, indicating the potential of introducing ZAC@VS 2 into CDI to remove lead ions.

1-Thioglycerol (TG)-stabilized quantum dots (QDs) are good candidate for performing a stepwise polymerization reaction with polyurethane (PU) prepolymers, but their use is limited by their worse photoluminescence (PL) in comparison to QDs stabilized by other mercapto-ligands. To overcome this problem, TG-stabilized CdTe QDs with enhanced PL were synthesized in water through a N2H4-promoted growth approach. The current synthesis significantly shortened the duration of the size evolution of QDs, particularly for obtaining samples with orange and red emissions. It also permitted QD growth at low temperatures, such as room temperature, which avoided the decomposition of TG and subsequent embedment of sulfur into the QDs as occurs in the conventional synthesis. Most importantly, the TG ligand endowed the QDs with hydroxyl coverage, making the QDs miscible with PU prepolymers in dimethyl sulfoxide, and therefore overcoming the main problem in fabricating PU-based nanocomposites of eliminating water. The hydroxyl coverage further allowed for the linkage of PU on the surface of the QDs through the reaction between –OH and –NCO, producing CdTe QD–PU bulk nanocomposites. Systematic characterization indicated that the QDs were well dispersed in the PU medium, and the size-dependent PL of QDs was also maintained.

Aromatic nitro compounds are the main components of explosives. They are not only explosive and dangerous but also have high toxicity and high stability in the human body, soil, and water resources, destroying the ecological environment. Herein, a simple hydrothermal method is used to successfully prepare layered MIL-100 (Fe). A series of aromatic nitro compounds including p-nitrophenol (PNP), nitrobenzene (NB), dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP), and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (2,4,6-TNP) were degraded by the photo-Fenton method. The MIL-100 (Fe) photo-Fenton agent can almost completely degrade PNP within 2 min. Similarly, it has a good degradation effect on other pollutants. Finally, the mechanism of the photo-Fenton reaction was discussed by product analysis and free radical capture experiments after the photochemical reaction. This study demonstrates the potential application value of MIL-100 (Fe) as a photo-Fenton reagent to degrade nitroaromatic explosives.
