During Bayer alumina production with high-sulfur bauxite, the sulfide ions in the sodium aluminate solution caused serious corrosion to Q235 steel, which is the material of the tank equipment. This study investigates the effect of corrosion time on Q235 steel synergistic corrosion in sodium aluminate solution using the weight-loss method and electrochemical measurements. The results indicate that the corrosion rate decreases sharply, the rate equation satisfies the mathematical model of power function at the initial stage of corrosion, and the transformation of unstable iron sulfide to stable iron oxide at the later stage results in the decrease in sulfur content in the corrosion products and surface pseudo-passivation. There are two main types of corrosion products, as follows: one is the octahedral crystal particle, which is composed of Fe2O3, Fe3O4, Al2O3and NaFeO2, and the other is the interlayer corrosion between the surface layer and the matrix, which is composed of FeS, FeS2and MnS2. At day 3, the dynamics of the Q235 steel electrode is controlled by charge transfer and ion diffusion. However, at other times the dynamics are mainly controlled by charge transfer.Keywords:Q235 steel;sulfide;corrosion time;weight loss;electrochemistry;EIS;potentiodynamic polarization curve

Electro-biological particle electrode (EPE) made from steel converter slag (SCS) was used as a particle electrode in an enlarged anode electric biological (EAEB) reactor for Rhodamine B (RhB) wastewater treatment, and its purification performance and microbial community were examined. The results revealed that (1) the EAEB reactor showed much higher average removal rates of RhB, COD and NH 4 + -N, i.e. 91.68%, 87.63%, and 90.54%, which meant an increase by 59.86%, 20.48%, and 14.22%, respectively, compared with BAF; (2) The optimum current intensity (CI) for simultaneously removing RhB, COD and NH 4 + -N in the EAEB reactor was at 1.00 A; and (3) Methylophilus, Aeromonas, Pseudomonas, Pelomonas and Zoogloea accounted for the main bacterial community in EAEB. Therefore, the EAEB reactor with EPE produced from steel converter slag (SCS) was suitable to simultaneously remove RhB, COD and NH 4 + -N.

The present paper discusses investigated the foaming behaviors and microstructure of three aerated steel slag block (ASSB) samples prepared with three different foaming agents (namely animal protein, hydrogen peroxide, aluminum powder) and by accelerated carbonation. The composition and microstructure of the ASSB samples before and after accelerated carbonation were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Rietveld method, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). It is an advisable method for foamed steel slag products to use the aluminum powder and accelerated carbonation technology. The aluminum powder favored a good foaming behavior for steel slag owing to (i) a high porosity and low dry density, (ii) a high hydration degree of minerals in steel slag, including brownmillerite, larnite, and lime, which was confirmed by the analysis of mineral compositions using Rietveld method, and (iii) the interlaced lamellas of monocarboaluminate and calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gel strengthen the bubbles wall, which was confirmed by morphology analysis using FE-SEM. After accelerated carbonation, the monocarboaluminate shifted to aragonite, vaterite, calcite and amorphous aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH) 3 ), which was confirmed by XRD, TGA and FT-IR. The network skeleton formed by aragonite crystals improved the compressive strength of ASSB prepared by aluminum powder. In addition, the reactions of the formation and carbonation of monocarboaluminate phase were proved to be thermodynamically possible in this work.

Graphene has attracted much attention and triggered extensive anti-corrosion applications due to its excellent electrochemical stability and robust barrier for molecules and ions. In this paper, a novel polypyrrole/reduced graphene oxide (PPy/rGO) nanocomposite was successfully prepared on carbon steel as an efficient protective coating for improving the anti-corrosion property. Graphene oxide (GO) was deposited onto carbon steel via potentiostatic technique, and PPy was obtained simultaneously by oxidation polymerization. Scanning cyclic voltammetry method was adopted to reduce GO into rGO to form PPy/rGO nanocomposite coating. Due to the synergistic effect of PPy and rGO, excellent anti-corrosion performance for carbon steel in simulated seawater was obtained. Impressively, the PPy/rGO-coated carbon steel showed 7.05 times higher corrosion resistance than that of bare carbon steel and revealed the excellent protection efficiency above 95.9%. The anti-corrosion mechanism of the PPy/rGO coating was also proposed. Our results suggested that the PPy/rGO composite coatings could serve as effectively protectors for anti-corrosion of seawater, therefore, they could envision potential applications in naval architecture and ocean engineering.

Chemical modification is effective in improving the corrosion inhibition efficiency of carbon dots (CDs) on steel. Here, the imidazolium ionic liquids (IL) modified-CDs (IL-CDs) are synthesized and proved to be mixed-type corrosion inhibitors . The IL increases the pyrrole N content and facilitates the formation of a denser inhibitor film. Molecular simulations confirm that the IL reduces the π-π interaction between CDs, endowing IL-CDs with higher water solubility and better corrosion inhibition effect than CDs. The lower orbital energy gap and larger positive electrostatic potential distribution enable the inhibition efficiency of IL-CDs of 97.11% in 1 M HCl, much superior to CDs (90.80%).

In this study, sulfuric acid modified steel slag (SS-HS) was prepared using a one-step hydrothermal synthesis method, utilizing converter steel slag as the raw material, to remove heavy metal Pb 2+ from water. Single-factor experiments were conducted to determine the influence of different factors on the adsorption capacity. The obtained material was characterized using EDS and FT-IR to analyze its composition. Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the preparation conditions of SS-HS, and the optimal conditions were determined as follows: sulfuric acid dosage of 8.07 mL, reaction time of 9.98 h, and reaction temperature of 99.44 ℃. SS-HS was prepared under the optimized conditions obtained from the response surface methodology. The physicochemical properties of the prepared SS-HS were analyzed using SEM , EDS, and BET. It was observed that the specific surface area of SS-HS increased from 8.0041 m 2 /g to 131.8312 m 2 /g. The average pore volume was 0.2101 cm 3 /g and the average pore size was 6.3737 nm for mesoporous material. Additionally, the influence of different adsorption conditions on the adsorption capacity of Pb 2+ was investigated. The optimum adsorption conditions reached the maximum adsorption amount of 193.05 mg/g at Pb 2+ solution concentration of 700 mg/L, adsorbent mass of 0.03 g, temperature of 55 °C, pH= 5. To further understand the adsorption process , kinetic and isotherm models were established. The results indicated that the adsorption process followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Freundlich isotherm model, suggesting a monolayer chemical adsorption . XPS analysis was employed to determine the composition and valence state of the materials, confirming that the adsorption mechanism of SS-HS primarily involved electrostatic adsorption, ion and ligand exchange , and surface precipitation. This study not only introduces a novel approach for the resource utilization of steel slag but also presents an innovative adsorbent for efficient removal of Pb 2+ from aqueous solutions.

In this work, silicon dots (SiDs) were synthesized and surface-engineered by introducing Gum Arabic (GA), which were utilized as novel non-metallic quantum dots corrosion inhibitors for Q235 carbon steel in HCl solution. A comparative analysis was conducted on the synthesis, characterization, and inhibition performance, confirming the surface engineering can enhance their anticorrosion ability while maintaining the excitation and emission properties. Weight loss tests confirmed a corrosion rate decrease from 8.38 g·m –2 ·h –1 (blank) to 0.53 g·m –2 ·h –1 (100 mg/L GA-SiDs), achieving 93.68 % inhibition efficiency. Electrochemical tests revealed a polarization resistance of 1013 Ω cm 2 for GA-SiDs, significantly higher than the blank (54.88 Ω cm 2 ), while polarization curves confirmed mixed-type inhibition with a corrosion current density reduction to 1.48 × 10 –4 A·cm –2 . Thermodynamic and surface/interface analysis demonstrated the inhibition mechanism: physical adsorption interaction, chemisorption coordination, and hydrophobic film formation. This work provides a sustainable strategy for designing non-metallic quantum dot inhibitors, combining high performance, cost-effectiveness, and environmental compatibility.

The immobilization of uranium in nuclear wastewater is of paramount importance for environmental and human health. However, there is a paucity of research on the immobilization of uranium in alkaline wastewater, particularly with regards to the application of novel electrodes. This article presents the utilization of an electrochemically polymerized polypyrrole stainless steel (PPy-SUS304) electrode for the effective electrochemical deposition and removal of uranium from alkaline wastewater containing uranium. According to the electrodeposition results, the uranium deposition efficiency of the novel electrode reached 96.82 %, with a uranium deposition rate of 0.048 mg U/(h·cm 2 ) and a charge efficiency of 0.055 mg U/C. These findings demonstrate the successful electrochemical reduction of UO 2 (CO 3 ) 3 4- in alkaline uranium-containing wastewater using the novel electrode, resulting in improved charge deposition efficiency. The electrode surface products were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The SEM and EDS results demonstrate the formation of a uniform PPy film on the surface of SUS304. In addition, the White light interferometer (WLI) test reveals that the PPy-SUS304 electrode exhibits increased roughness compared to the SUS304 electrode. The XPS results revealed that the electrode surface products of PPy-SUS304 were actually U compounds constituted of U(IV) oxides or hydroxides. This study provides a new perspective for the development of novel electrodes to suppress side reactions and efficiently recover uranium from alkaline uranium-containing wastewater.

Carbon dots have significantly contributed to corrosion resistance due to their varied physical and chemical properties, excellent biocompatibility, and high surface activity. Therefore, designing and developing high-performance carbon dot inhibitors is of great significance. The study successfully synthesized lanthanum and nitrogen co-modified carbon dots (La/N-CDs), which function as a green and effective corrosion inhibitor. It was found that the La/N-CDs inhibitor presented a nanostructure with size of 3–9 nm. Electrochemical experiments, such as Tafel plots and EIS, showed that the presence of La/N-CDs effectively suppressed metal corrosion in a chloride-containing corrosion solution. In a 3 wt% NaCl solution, 400 mg/L La 15 % /N-CDs exhibited the best corrosion inhibition performance, with an impedance modulus of 2165.33 Ω cm² and an inhibition efficiency reaching as high as 93.07 %, while the surface roughness of the steel and the corrosion rate was also minimized. This might be explained by the formation of an adsorption layer by La/N-CDs on the metal surface, a phenomenon confirmed by Langmuir isotherm and XPS investigations. These findings confirmed that La/N-CDs could form a protective film on the metal surface, significantly improving its corrosion resistance and extending its service life in corrosion environment. The study’s findings offered insights and a conceptual structure for enhancing corrosion inhibitors using carbon dots that were augmented with rare earth elements.

Because of the increase of industrial wastewater containing insoluble oil and oil discharged accidents, oil/water separation has turned out an exceedingly crucial and urgent issue in environmental protection. Therefore, it is terribly significant to develop a simple and effective technology for oil/water separation. Membrane separation has been well known as a promising method to remove oils from water due to its energy-efficiency and cost-effectiveness. In the present work, we report the synthesis of a hydrophobic zeolite FAU named F-FAU through a simple and effective post-synthetic modification. Firstly, a thin zeolite FAU layer is grown on the 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) modified stainless steel net (SSN) to form SSN supported FAU (SSN@FAU) coating. And then, a hydrophobic SSN@F-FAU coating is prepared through post modification of SSN@FAU coating with perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane (POTS). After POTS modification, the water contact angle (CA) of the SSN@FAU coating increases from 15° to 132° for SSN@F-FAU coating, while both morphology and structure of the SSN@FAU coating keep unchangeable. Attributing to the high hydrophobicity of the F-FAU coating, the SSN@F-FAU coating shows a wonderful oil/water separation performance, with oil/water separation efficiency of above 98.8 % and oil flux of up 50,000 L m −2 h -1 . After 50 cycles successive separation of hexane/water mixture, the separation efficiency of the SSN@F-FAU coating keeps constant (over 99.1 %), showing potential application for oil/water separation in industries. Further, hydrophobic SSN@F-LTA coating can be consistently prepared through post modification of SSN@LTA coating with POTS, and also shows a high oil/water separation performance, with oil/water separation efficiency above 99.0 % and oil flux over 40,000 L m −2 h -1 , confirming the universality of the preparation strategy.

In photocatalytic anticorrosion perspective, the migration rate of excited electrons from surface layers to substrate steels restricted the performance of g-C 3 N 4 due to the high resistance between interface of g-C 3 N 4 layers and adhesive layers. Herein, an S-scheme g-C 3 N 4 /polyaniline (PANI) heterojunction with face-to-face structure was established by a secondary calcining method. The as-prepared heterojunctions were applied to protect Q235 carbon steel, and the results showed that the anticorrosion performance of S-scheme g-C 3 N 4 /PANI heterojunction is much higher than that of g-C 3 N 4 and PANI coating layers according to salt spray test. Photocurrent intensity indicated that the optimum amounts of g-C 3 N 4 and PANI were 0.06 and 0.09 mL/cm 2 , which are benefit for the transport of excited electrons due to the optimum thickness of coating layers. Furthermore, the S-scheme g-C 3 N 4 /PANI heterojunction can promote the separation rate of charge carriers and suppress the recombination rate at the same time, which are inferred from photocurrent intensity, electrochemical impedance spectra, super-depth-of-field microscope, and photoluminescence investigation. In the last, the enhanced anticorrosion performance of S-scheme g-C 3 N 4 /PANI heterojunction with face-to-face structure was deduced according to mentioned characterization.

The inhibiting effect of indole on the corrosion of mild steel Q235 in 0.1 M H 2 SO 4 was investigated through different approaches including weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscope experiments, and theoretical calculations. Polarization curves reveal that the indole acts as a mixed-type inhibitor and the reaction mechanism in respect of either hydrogen evolution or mild steel dissolution has not been modified. EIS results imply that the water molecules adsorbed on the steel surface are substituted by the indole molecules and the inhibiting behavior of indole is probably due to the formation of an adsorptive film on the steel surface. Thus the thermodynamic and kinetic parameters are determined and discussed to give better understanding of the adsorption process. Theoretical calculations are also discussed in light of the optimized molecular structure of indole to gain further insight of the inhibition mechanism.
