Fabrication of adsorbent can play an important role in the adsorption desulfurization technology as a most promising deeply desulfurization technology. Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 aerogel composites were synthesized, where the easy oxidation of Ce 3+ into Ce 4+ was realized by adding hydrogen peroxide, and were utilized to remove thiophenics from model fuels and aromatics. Compared with Ag 2 O/SiO 2 and CeO 2 /SiO 2 , the adsorption uptake and solvent washing regeneration performance of Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 for thiophene was obviously enhanced, and the adsorption selectivity for thiophene in the presence of aromatics was relatively close to CeO 2 /SiO 2 , attributed to that Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 adsorbed thiophenics via the π-Ag + complexation and S-Ce bonding, where the latter was main interaction. However, there was no synergistic interaction between Ag and Ce species acted as adsorption sites in the Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 , which could be supported by that the chemical state of Ag and Ce in Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 was consistent with corresponding one in Ag 2 O/SiO 2 and CeO 2 /SiO 2 , respectively. Among Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 aerogel composites with different molar ratios of Si/Ce, Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 -50 performed the best, its adsorption uptake for thiophene, benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene from model fuels arrived at 20.4, 21.8 and 27.2 mg-S/g ads , respectively. Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm models, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model could well describe the adsorption of thiophenics over Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 -50.

Residual crude oil production from low-permeability reservoirs has become a huge challenge because conventional recovery techniques are inefficient. Nanofluids as a new type of oil-displacement agent have become a hot topic in recent years to enhance oil recovery (EOR) in reservoirs. However, the imperfection of agglomeration, dissolution, and instability of nanofluids in reservoir environments limit their ability to drive oil. Here, a novel “microbial-nanofluid” composed of petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria (PHDB, namelyBacillus cereus) and SiO2nanoparticles was proposed as a potential new technology for enhancing residual oil recovery. The micromodel displacement test results showed that the optimum composite concentration of “microbial-nanofluids” were PHDB (7.0%,v/v) and SiO2nanoparticles (100 mg/L), and the residual oil recovery was increased by 30.1% compared with waterflooding (68.8%). Moreover, the morphological characteristics of residual oil mobilization after “microbial-nanofluid” flooding were mainly small and dispersed oil droplets in the excessive areas, and the dead-end areas were almost clean with mobilization. Furthermore, the cooperation mechanism of four kinds of “microbial-nanofluids” to enhance the residual oil recovery in low-permeability reservoirs was preliminarily clarified, namely the co-emulsification of oil, working together to unclog oil clog, microbial-nanofluid self-assembly, and structural disjoining pressure. This study demonstrated that PHDB-SiO2nanoparticle composite flooding technology provided a significant potential for the EOR from low-permeability reservoirs.Keywords:petroleum hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria;silica nanoparticles;residual oil mobilization;visual micromodels;microbial-nanofluids;enhance oil recovery

A crucial step in the purification and recycling of industrial waste oil is the separation and removal of trace water from emulsified oil. After optimizing the polymer content, solvent composition, and SiO 2 nanoparticle addition amount of the spinning precursor solution, a Polyvinylidene fluoride- co -trifluoroethylene chloride (PVDF-CTFE)/SiO 2 nanofibrous membrane with micro and nano-rough structure was prepared by electrospinning. Using scanning electron microscopy, a pore size analyzer, a contact angle tester, a single-fiber strength tester, and a gravity separation experiment, the influence of SiO 2 addition on the morphology, pore size distribution , wettability , mechanical, and separation properties of the modified membranes was characterized. The results demonstrated that the water contact angle of the nanofibrous membrane was increased to 151.3° of superhydrophobic when SiO 2 was added at a concentration of 2.5 wt%. The nanofibrous membranes exhibited outstanding separation performance (>99%) for water-in-oil mixtures and emulsions, as well as for various oil-water systems. Moreover, the PVDF-CTFE/SiO 2 nanofibrous membranes exhibited superior multi-cycle performance and consistent chemical resistance. This research yielded a novel material and a straightforward method for fabricating superhydrophobic nanofibrous membranes, which demonstrated greater application potential in oil-water separation.

Vulnerable robustness of superhydrophobic materials have mightily hindered their practical applications. Herein, a controllable and effective strategy is demonstrated for constructing robust superhydrophobicity with aqueous hydrophobic interaction driving self-assembly (HIDS), using polydopamine (PDA) as the binder and SiO 2 particles as the nano-sized structures to enable low-adhesive property. The proposed strategy realizes the rapid interfacial assembly of PDA by manipulating the wetting properties of SiO 2 @PDA core-shell particles with hydrophobic modifier. The polyurethane (PU) sponges are facilely rendered superhydrophobic with remarkable robustness, stemming from the excellent adherence of HIDS enhanced covalent interaction between PDA and PU. Coated sponge possesses ultralong-term stability during the oil-water separation, the separation efficiency can be maintained at 98.8% even after 1000 cycle separations and strikingly, superhydrophobicity is still retained after 100 cycle abrasion with ultrahigh loading pressure of 49 kPa. Versatilely, the coatings can be assembled on various substrates through scalable dip coating for attaining superhydrophobicity, regardless of size, roughness, chemistry, and rigidity. The complete water-repellent coatings on permanent magnet of Nd-Fe-B hold excellent anti-corrosion properties without deteriorating the magnetic properties, exhibiting a low corrosion current density of 2.03 × 10 −8 A cm −2 , which is three orders of magnitude lower than that of 1.30 × 10 −5 A cm −2 for bare Nd-Fe-B magnet.

Liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC) are considered as the promising candidates for large-scale hydrogen storage. The N -ethylcarbazole/dodecahydro- N -ethylcarbazole (NECZ/12H-NECZ) system has received increasing attention due to its excellent comprehensive properties in the hydrogen storage candidates. In this work, the Pt/SiO 2 -TiO(OH) 2 catalysts are synthesized and show good activity, selectivity and stability for 12H-NECZ dehydrogenation reaction. Among them, the 2.5 wt% Pt/SiO 2 -TiO(OH) 2 catalyst shows the best dehydrogenation performance with 5.75 wt% H 2 release amount and 98 % selectivity of NECZ. Combined with XRD, HRTEM, ATR-FTIR, XPS and EPR analysis, it is found that the oxygen vacancy concentration in Pt/SiO 2 -TiO(OH) 2 is significantly enhanced due to the formation of Si-O-Ti species compared with Pt/SiO 2 and Pt/TiO(OH) 2 , which strengthens the SMSI (strong metal-supporting interaction) effect between metal Pt and support SiO 2 -TiO(OH) 2 . The optimized d-band center of catalyst is beneficial for accelerating the sluggish kinetics of the rate-limiting step of the whole dehydrogenation reaction. Furthermore, compared with the results by replacing SiO 2 with Al 2 O 3 or CeO 2 , it is indicated that the introduction of oxides mainly plays the role of regulating the surface electronic state of TiO(OH) 2 and increasing the oxygen vacancy concentration.

Mycotoxins contamination, especially aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in edible oils, is a health hazard. Therefore, AFB1 trace analysis methods are urgently needed. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is a popular sensing method because of its low background interference and high sensitivity. However, existing ECL assays for AFB1 detection are based on aqueous rather than oil systems. Herein, we report a CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 quantum dots (MAPB QDs)@SiO 2 -based ECL sensor for AFB1 quantification in corn oil using an organic electrolyte. The luminophore loading and stability of the MAPB QDs@SiO 2 particles were significantly improved compared to those of bulky MAPB materials, resulting in an enhanced ECL response. Further, exploiting molecular imprinting technology, an ECL sensor for AFB1 detection with an ultra-low detection limit of 8.5 fg/mL was prepared. The reliability of the sensor was confirmed by comparable recoveries of corn oil samples with those obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography, indicating its potential for food safety evaluation.

A molecularly imprinted sensor for highly sensitive and selective determination of dibutyl phthalate (DBP) was fabricated by combining multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) with surface molecularly imprinted polymer (SMIPs). The MWCNTs and AuNPs were designed to modify the electrode surface to accelerate the electron transfer rate and enhance the chemical stability. SMIPs were synthesized using SiO 2 microspheres as carriers. By loading SMIPs capable of identifying DBP on the surface of modified electrodes of MWCNTs and AuNPs, an electrochemical sensor for detecting DBP was successfully constructed. After optimizing the experimental conditions, the modified electrode SiO 2 -COOH@MIP/AuNPs/MWCNTs/GCE can recognize DBP in the range of 10 −7 g L −1 to 10 −2 g L −1 , and the detection limit achieved to 5.09 × 10 −9 g L −1 (S/N = 3). The results demonstrate that the proposed MIP electrochemical sensor may be a promising candidate electrochemical strategy for detecting DBP in complex samples.

A series of Z-scheme β-Bi 2 O 3 /ZrO 2 heterojunction composites containing three-dimensional (3D) mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) were synthesized as efficient catalysts for antibiotic remediation. The obtained MSN/β-Bi 2 O 3 /ZrO 2 ternary composites possess novel lamellar cross structure, which is well constructed by β-Bi 2 O 3 nanosheets, 3D MSNs, and ZrO 2 nanoparticles. The optimal sample BZS-2 (Bi: Zr: Si = 1: 0.4: 0.33) shows an adsorptive-photocatalytic removal efficiency of 92.7% towards levofloxacin (LVF) and a total organic carbon (TOC) removal efficiency of 60.0% under simulated solar light irradiation for 100 min. BZS-2 can also remove 90.1% and 91.2% of tetracycline hydrochloride (TC) and oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OTC), respectively, and the maximum adsorption capacity of TC over BZS-2 is almost 10 times that of β-Bi 2 O 3 . The improvement of photocatalytic activity can be mainly attributed to the enhanced visible-light adsorption capacity and more efficient separation of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. A possible Z-scheme photocatalytic mechanism of β-Bi 2 O 3 /ZrO 2 heterojunctions based on valence band offset (Δ E VBO ) and conduction band offset (Δ E CBO ) is proposed. This study provides an efficient way to construct novel mesoporous ternary photocatalyst with increased accessible surface area and active sites for treatment of antibiotics by synergistic adsorption and photocatalysis.

CsPbI3 has the least chemical stability among the CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) perovskite nanocrystal (PNC) family due to its thermodynamically metastable characteristics, thus limiting the development of all-inorganic perovskite white-light devices. The current study presents a microfluidic-based continuous large-scale fabrication of CsPbI3-mesoporous SiO2 (CPI/m-SiO2) nanocomposites to solve the problem of large-scale continuous production of stable, repeatable, high-quality perovskite NCs. The results reveal that the chemical stability and thermal quenching behaviour of CPI PNCs were greatly improved due to the protection of mesoporous silica. Particularly, the water resistance property of CPI/m-SiO2 nanocomposites improved two-fold compared to that of noncomposite CPI PNCs, and the thermal stability of the CPI/m-SiO2 nanocomposites improved nearly three-fold at 373 K when compared with that of the noncomposite CPI NCs. Furthermore, photons were speculated to transmit along with the pores and channel structure of m-SiO2 to reduce photon absorption between NCs. Moreover, the microfluidic technology can operate continuously and is precisely controllable, enabling large-scale nanocomposite synthesis with uniform size and shape.

The application of the excellent luminescence properties of lanthanide β-diketonate complex in water systems is the focus of the research in this field. We introduced the lanthanide β-diketonate complex into the framework of polyionic liquid (PIL) and SiO2 to prepare a lanthanide complex hybrid material fluorescent probe SiO2@PIL-Eu(nta)4, which can be used for the detection of bovine hemoglobin in water. Hydrophilic polyionic liquid grafted with SiO2 nanoparticles was the template of the hybrid material. The lanthanide complex was introduced into the prepared spherical polyionic liquid brushes by ion exchange. The obtained products were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), ultraviolet–visible (UV–vis) spectroscopy, and luminescence spectroscopy. The PIL matrix improved the fluorescence lifetime and quantum efficiencies of the lanthanide complex. The as-synthesized hybrid material was employed as a fluorescent probe for the bovine hemoglobin detection in an aqueous solution and the limit of detection is 0.0803 mg/mL. The addition of H2O2 can intensify the quenching of the fluorescent probe. In addition, we analyzed and discussed the quenching mechanism of the probe. The bovine hemoglobin can quench the fluorescence of the probe with the inner filter effect. In the presence of both H2O2 and bovine hemoglobin, the structure of the probe is oxidized by the superoxide anion in the system and the fluorescence of the probe is quenched by the mechanism of static quenching.

The adsorption separation and extraction of low-concentration boron from salt-lake brine have great significance. Magnetic separation avoids the problem of adsorbent granulation and improves the usage efficiency. The silicon-based adsorbents have attracted interest due to their superior acid and alkali resistance, in which polyhydroxy graphene enhances the adsorption of boron ions. Herein different boron adsorbents, derived by magnetic separation, were developed and characterized by SEM, TEM, XPS, VSM, FT-IR, and XRD analysis. The adsorption-desorption performance of boron adsorbents with different compositions was evaluated. The isotherms and kinetics parameters of the boron extraction were evaluated based on adsorption-desorption tests. The graphene-based magnetic adsorbent (Go-Fe3O4@SiO2@mSiO2-Glu) registered a high boron adsorption capacity of 23.90 mg/g at pH = 9 in the boron solution and 24.84 mg/g for East Taigener salt-lake brine. The Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, and Cl−ions have little interference with the boron adsorption. The adsorbents exhibit magnetic separation performance and good cycle life. The results showed that acid-alkali desorption solution has little effect on the adsorbents, and the composite of graphene enhances the adsorption of boron ions. The adsorbents developed in this study are promising to recover boron from low-concentration boron-containing salt-lake brines.Keywords:adsorption;boron adsorbents;magnetic separation;SiO2;graphene;salt-lake brines

Glutathione (GSH)-switched fluorescent assays have appealed much attention due to rapid signal changes of fluorescent probes. However, exposure to exterior environment of fluorescent probe causes photobleaching and premature leakage, leading to low sensitivity and poor photostability. Herein, luminescent SiO 2 nanoparticles encapsulated with Ru(bpy) 3 2+ ( [email protected] 2 ) were designed and synthesized as fluorescent probe to construct a GSH-switched fluorescent assay. The encapsulation of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ in the SiO 2 nanoparticles could effectively prevent the leakage of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ molecules, improving the photostability of probe. The fluorescence of [email protected] 2 nanoparticles was quenched by coating MnO 2 nanoparticles on [email protected] 2 surface ( [email protected] 2 @MnO 2 nanocomposites) through an in situ growth approach, which reduced background of the assay. The MnO 2 nanoparticles not only further inhibited the leakage of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ molecules, but also could serve as a recognition unit of GSH. In the presence of GSH, the MnO 2 nanoparticles on the surface of [email protected] 2 nanoparticles were reduced to Mn 2+ , resulting the fluorescence recovery of [email protected] 2 nanoparticles. Thus, a signal-on fluorescent strategy was constructed for GSH detection. The assay displayed good analytical performance for GSH detection with a low detection limit of 16.2 nM due to excellent fluorescence quenching ability of MnO 2 nanoparticles and special role of [email protected] 2 nanoparticles to block probe leakage. The proposed assay was also applied to measure GSH levels in human serum samples. This work paves a new way to detect GSH with high sensitivity.
