Environmentally hazardous P(V), Mo(VI) and W(VI) generated oxyanions exist widely in the waste liquid of nonferrous hydrometallurgy . In this work, Fe-MOF material was simply prepared via solvothermal synthesis and then used as an adsorbent to remove P(V), Mo(VI) and W(VI) oxyanions from hydrometallurgical waste liquid . Several important parameters, including solution pH, oxyanion concentration, contact time, adsorbent amount, temperature and coexistent heavy metal ions , were systematically investigated. The results demonstrate that adsorption process was almost pH-independent over a broad range of pH 3.0–10.0. The adsorption efficiency was strongly associated with the chemical species of oxyanions. The higher polymerisation degree of oxyanions was more favourable for removal efficiency. Additionally, the maximum removal efficiencies for P(V), Mo(VI) and W(VI) oxyanions under optimum conditions were approximately 100%. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics and isotherms of oxyanions on the adsorbent separately belonged to the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models. XPS analysis revealed that inner-sphere complexation played a dominant role in the adsorption removal process. Fe-MOFs with pH-independent properties, abundant binding sites and high stability are prospective adsorbents for treating waste liquids in the hydrometallurgical industry.

Ba 1- x K x (Zn 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3- x /2 (BKZN, x = 0–0.2) ceramics were prepared by the high-temperature solid-state reaction method. Based on P–V–L theory, Raman vibration spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), this paper investigates the relationship between the internal and external factors of K + substitution in the Ba(Zn 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 (BZN) ceramics and the microwave dielectric properties of the ceramics. X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterisation revealed that all samples were single phase with no impure phases. Replacing Ba 2+ with K + greatly reduced the sintering temperature and optimised the microwave dielectric properties of the ceramics. The dielectric constant ( ε r ) was closely related to the ion polarizability and density, and inversely proportional to Raman shift of the A 1g (O) peak. The quality factor ( Q × f ) depended largely on the lattice energy ( U b ) and the full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of A 1g (O) near 790 cm −1 . The temperature coefficient of the resonance frequency ( τ f ) could be inferred from the bond energy ( E b ) and oxygen octahedral distortion. Finally, outstanding microwave dielectric properties ( ε r = 40.83, Q × f = 71,658 GHz and τ f = 2.52 ppm/°C) were acquired for Ba 0.95 K 0.05 (Zn 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 2.975 ceramics sintered at the optimum sintering temperature (1325 °C) for 4 h.
