Mineral–organic matter (OM) associations play an important role in determining the long-term retention of OM in soils. However, the retention mechanisms of OM in cation–mineral–OM systems remain unclear. Taking into account the dominance of montmorillonite (Mnt) in the soil of the temperate zone, we investigated the stability of humic substances (HSs) in the Fe(III)–Mnt–HS system using thermal analysis. The HS degradation started at ~387°C in the Fe(III)–Mnt–HS system, which was higher than that of the Fe(III)–HS system (290°C). The formed ferrihydrite (Fhy) mainly contributed to the enhanced labile OM retention through adsorption and/or co-precipitation, whereas Mnt inhibited the initial formation and subsequent transformation of Fhy, thus improving the stability of OM. These results suggest that the HS stability in Fe(III)–clay–HS systems depends on the Fe speciation affected by clay minerals, and this finding provides insights into OM–mineral interactions in temperate-zone soils.

A new approach was developed using NaH2PO4 as the stripping agent for Fe stripping from Fe-loaded Aliquat 336 during rare-earth elements recovery from red mud leachate. Owing to the strong coordination between Fe3+ and H2PO4‒, Fe mainly exists as FeH2PO42+ at [H2PO4‒] higher than 0.5 M, which can be readily stripped. The results showed a maximum Fe stripping efficiency of 95.5% under optimal condition. Moreover, the extraction capacity of the extractant after stripping was comparable to that of fresh extractant, and decreased only by 2% after 6 cycles, indicating the robustness of this approach for Fe stripping and extractant regeneration.

Herein, the application of organic acids as chelating agent , including citric acid (CA), tartaric acid (TA), oxalic acid (OA) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), to enhance the degradation performance of MgO 2 /Fe(III) system was investigated in the terms of chelating agent dosage, Fe(III) dosage, reaction temperature, initial solution pH and inorganic anion. When the molar ratio of MgO 2 /Fe(III)/chelating agent was 1 : 0.7 : 0.3, the degradation efficiencies of Rhodamine B (RhB) increased from 6.7% (without chelating agent) to 42.3%, 98.5%, 48.9% and 25.8% within 30 min for CA, TA, OA, and EDTA, respectively. The promotion effect was mainly attributed to the chelation between chelating agents and Fe(III), rather than the acidification of chelating agents. The pseudo-first-order kinetic model well fitted RhB degradation in MgO 2 /Fe(III)/TA system, and the kinetic rate constant reached up to 0.295 min −1 . Hydroxyl radical was confirmed to be the dominant active species to degrade organics in the MgO 2 /Fe(III)/TA system. Notably, the degradation system could work in a broad pH (3–11) and temperature (5–35 °C) range. Moreover, the MgO 2 /Fe(III)/TA system can also effectively degrade methylene blue , tetracycline and bisphenol A. This work provided a new, efficient and environmentally-friendly Fenton-like system for stubborn contaminant treatment.

Photocatalytic nitrogen fixation has been considered to be a safe, green, eco-friendly, and sustainable technology. However, photoinduced activation of inert dinitrogen is an important factor hindering the development of this technology. Herein, in-situ Fe 3+ doped flower-like BiOCl with highly active sites exposure was prepared by a solvent thermal method, which has excellent performance of N 2 photofixation. Compared with virgin BiOCl with no nitrogen fixation activity, Fe-BiOCl reached 30 μmol·L −1 ·h −1 ammonia evolution rate under simulated sunlight without any sacrificial reagent. Characterization results demonstrated that the enhancement of N 2 photofixation capacity was mainly attributed to the in-situ doped Fe 3+ in BiOCl, the doped Fe 3+ not only acts as a reaction center for N 2 activation also as an “electron transfer bridge” trapping and migrating electrons from BiOCl to N 2 molecules. Furthermore, the transformation of crystal facets from virgin BiOCl (0 0 1) to Fe-BiOCl (1 1 0) and (1 0 2) is more conducive for the exposure and accessibility of iron reactive sites. This work developed a potential strategy by in-situ introducing Fe 3+ active sites in BiOCl semiconductor substrate, which establishes a good basis for the application of semiconductor catalysts in nitrogen fixation.

In recent years, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which are emerging nanocatalysts, have received much attention in advanced oxidation processes. CNTs were introduced into H 2 O 2 /Fe(III) Fenton-like process to enhance the degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) in this study. The results of the study suggests that CNTs could effectively promote electron transfer from H 2 O 2 to Fe(III) and directly reduce Fe(III) to Fe(II) to accelerate Fe(III)/Fe(II) cycles, in which carbonyl groups and structural defects of CNTs were identified as the major active sites via SEM, Raman, XRD, FTIR and XPS analyses. It was revealed that hydroxyl radical (·OH) majorly contributed to the degradation of BPA, and the generation efficiency of ·OH was significantly increased by 3.2 times with the addition of CNTs. Also, nine intermediate products were identified, and the possible degradation pathways of BPA were proposed through the density functional theory (DFT) calculations and HPLC-MS/MS analysis. The ecotoxicity evaluation of BPA demonstrates that the oxidative degradation of BPA in CNTs/H 2 O 2 /Fe(III) system could effectively reduce its environmental risk. The critical experimental parameters including the dosage of Fe(III), H 2 O 2 , CNTs, initial pH and various anions (Cl − , HCO 3 – , SO 4 2− ) were investigated, and the reusability experiments indicate that CNTs maintained high stability and reusability during the reaction.

A facile and efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalytic system was constructed based on interconnected Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets arrays electrode and Fe(III) containing alkali electrolyte. The partial deposition of Fe(III) onto Ni(OH) 2 with heterostructure obviously enhanced the OER current density and reduced the overpotential, and the Fe(III) cations in electrolyte also furnished positive contribution to the catalytic reaction, the synergy between Ni(OH) 2 electrode and Fe(III) cations in electrolyte therefore substantially improved the OER catalytic efficiency with low overpotential (285 mV at current density of 50 mA cm −2 ) and obviously enhanced current density (391 mA cm −2 at 1.8 V). The current work expands our understanding on the effect of Fe(III) cations in electrolyte to OER efficiency of Ni based catalyst, and opens up a cost-effective and practical avenue to enhance the OER catalytic efficiency by introducing metal cations in alkali electrolyte.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) featuring a fcu-type net based on 12-connected [Zr 6 (μ 3 -O) 4 (μ 3 -OH) 4 ] cluster have received considerable interest for the fundamental investigation of structure-property relationships in a wide range of catalytic reactions . In this work, the bipyridine (bpy) chelate group was introduced into the fcu-type framework of UiO-67, giving UiO-67bpy as the catalyst support. Then, FeCl 3 was post-synthetically anchored to the bpy group, resulting into the isolation of FeCl 3 /UiO-67bpy. Catalyzed hydrolysis of 5-hydroxylmethoxyfurfural (HMF) into levulinic acid (LA) was then explored and revealed that it can efficiently and selectively catalytic convert HMF into LA, which is superior to that of FeCl 3 /UiO-67 where FeCl 3 is encapsulated in the cage of UiO-67 and dispersed on the pore surface. The recyclability studies further confirmed the importance of anchored FeCl 3 where there is no significant decrease in catalytic activity as compared with that of FeCl 3 /UiO-67. Taking the detailed textural porosity and catalytic results of isomorphous structures in consideration, our studies revealed that narrowing the pore size with anchored FeCl 3 on the skeleton of the fcu-type Zr-MOF rather than encapsulating FeCl 3 inside the cage is more favored for the rehydration reaction of HMF to LA.

Electrospun nanofiber membrane (ENM) with huge specific surface area is an ideal solid substrate for sensors. However, only a few ENMs are developed into colorimetric sensors and it is even more challenging to fabricate multiple-ion-responsive ENM-based colorimetric sensor. In this study, benefiting from the excellent metal ion adsorption ability of poly(aspartic acid) (PASP) and high specific surface area of nanofibers, a reusable colorimetric sensor utilizing PASP electrospun nanofiber hydrogel membrane (ENHM) was designed to detect Cu2+ and Fe3+ in aqueous solution with simple filtration. The sensor based on PASP–ENHM exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity, and colorimetric responses for Cu2+ and Fe3+ detection could be observed by the naked eye. Upon exposure to Cu2+ aqueous solution, the color of the sensor changed from white to blue with a naked eye detection limit of 0.3 mg/L, while it turned from white to yellow with a detection limit of 0.1 mg/L for Fe3+ detection. Furthermore, this sensor was reusable after metal ion extraction by the desorption process.

Since thiosemicarbazide contains numerous nitrogen and sulfur atoms in its structural formula that enhance its strong coordinating abilities with metal ions , it is always selected as the mother molecule for the design of metal-ion sensors. In this report, a thiosemicarbazide derivative (4-naphthalenyl-3-thiosemicarbazide (NTSC)) was synthesized via a single step process and covalently conjugated onto the surfaces of carbon dots (CDs). The modified CDs demonstrated excellent monodispersity, good photostability, and tunable luminescence properties. More importantly, the CDs retained a highly specific Fe 3+ recognition capacity in contrast to other competing metal ions . Fe 3+ can efficiently quench the fluorescence of CDs even at fairly low concentration (30 μM) with a detection limit as low as 1.68 nM. The fluorescence quenching kinetics are likely to involve static quenching, which is caused by specific interactions between NTSC-CDs and Fe 3+ toward the formation of a ground state complex. Due to their excellent optical performance, low toxicity, and good biocompatibility the NTSC-CDs may be applied to the imaging and monitoring of Fe 3+ in bacillus subtilis. In effect we successfully fabricated an effective fluorescent nanosensor for both the quantitative detection of Fe 3+ in aqueous solutions, and its real-time imaging in vivo.

An environment-friendly synthesis of a covalently bonded terbium(Tb)-complex-containing monodispersed fluorescent porous copolymer microspheres, and their highly selective detection of Fe 3+ are described. The as-made copolymer microspheres exhibit intense green fluorescence originating from Tb ions and high photostability in water. Encouragingly, the fluorescence of the copolymer microspheres can be selectively quenched by trace Fe 3+ due to the interaction between Fe 3+ and the ligands, which disturbs the coordination structure of Tb-complexes and inhibits the energy transfer from ligands to Tb ions. The intense fluorescence intensity, high fluorescence stability, together with the nanoscale and porous nature of the copolymer microsphere endows them with wide detection range (0–1500 µ m ) and low detection limit (2.1 µ m ) for selective recognition of Fe 3+ in aqueous environment. This study paves a new pathway for the function of porous copolymer microspheres being used as targeting for biological detection and environmental issues.

Magnetic carbon spheres have been successfully prepared by the synchronous carbonation and activation of the 8-quinoliolato Fe(III) complexe with sphere morphology, which has been synthesized by solovthermal method. The obtained composite possesses relatively even pore diameter of 3.8 nm, high surface area of 335.59 m 2 /g with 52.67 wt.% Fe 3 O 4 coated, and a saturation magnetization (Ms) of 35.27 emu/g. Dye separation performance of the magnetic carbon spheres is investigated using methylene orange and methylene blue as modle. The resluts show that the maxium adsorption capacity for methylene orange and methylene blue is 128.70 mg g −1 and 151.29 mg g −1 , respectively, and the process can rapidly reach adsorption equilibrium within 5 min, which is important for the application of the as-prepared magnetic carbon spheres.

Water decontamination from As(III) is an urgent but still challenging task. Herein, we fabricated a bifunctional nanocomposite HFO@PS-Cl for highly efficient removal of As(III), with active chlorine covalently binding spherical polystyrene host for in situ oxidation of As(III) to As(V), and Fe(III) hydroxide (HFO) nanoparticles (NPs) embedded inside for specific As(V) removal. HFO@PS-Cl could work effectively in a wide pH range (5–9), and other substances like sulfate, chloride, bicarbonate, silicate, and humic acid exert insignificant effect on As(III) removal. As(III) sequestration is realized via two pathways, that is, oxidation to As(V) by the active chlorine followed by specific As(V) adsorption onto HFO NPs, and As(III) adsorption onto HFO NPs followed by oxidation to As(V). The exhausted HFO@PS-Cl could be refreshed for cyclic runs with insignificant capacity loss by the combined regeneration strategy, that is, alkaline solution to rinse the adsorbed As(V) and NaClO solution to renew the host oxidation capability. In addition, fixed-bed experiments demonstrated that the HFO@PS-Cl column could generate >1760 bed volume (BV) effluent from a synthetic As(III)-containing groundwater to meet the drinking water standard (<10 μg As/L), whereas other two HFO nanocomposites, HFO@PS-N and HFO@D201 could only generate 450 and 600 BV effluents under otherwise identical conditions.
