Superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic coatings that effectively prevent viscous oil contamination have been of considerable interest for the great potential in oil spill remediation and oilfield wastewater treatment . In the present work, a protonated cross-linkable nanocomposite coating with robust underwater superoleophobicity and intensified hydration capability is proposed through the synthesis of active polymeric nanocomplex (PNC), cross-linking reaction between PNC and hydrophilic chitosan (CS), and final protonation to further improve water affinity. Benefiting from the hierarchical structure and strong hydration capability induced by electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bondings, the nanocomposite coating coated textile exhibits excellent superhydrophilicity (within 0.28 s with water contact angle reaching 0°), underwater superoleophobicity (underwater crude oil contact angle at 160°), and ultralow oil adhesion even to highly viscous silicone oil. Moreover, the nanocomposite coating presents a robust chemical resistance, mechanical tolerance, and storage stability. Simultaneously, the nanocomposite coating adapts well to various porous substrates (e.g., stainless steel mesh and Ni sponge) with great anti-oil-fouling and self-cleaning performances. Importantly, the coating coated textile is successfully applied in crude oil/water separation with excellent efficiency and repeatability. The findings conceivably stand out as a new methodology to fabricate superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic materials with outstanding anti-viscous oil-fouling property for practically treating oily wastewater.

Petroleum hydrocarbons pollutants are the serious environmental hazards in the exploitation of petroleum resources. As comparison to the traditional solvent for petroleum hydrocarbons removal, deep eutectic solvents (DESs), as the ideal alternate for organic solvents, have non-toxicity, non-flammability and lower volatility. Whereas, the recycling of DES is still the great challenge for sustainable separation. Herein, hydrophobic DESs (HDESs) with the CO 2 switchable-hydrophilicity are developed, aiming to sustainably separate petroleum hydrocarbons pollutions. The HDESs are formed by hydrogen bonds between the phenolic compounds as hydrogen bond donors (HBDs) and tertiary amines as hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs), which was demonstrated by the spectroscopic detection. Interestingly, the HDES exhibits better CO 2 -switchable behavior than traditional switchable-solvent, where the phase transition is induced by the protonation of HBA upon CO 2 and the deprotonation of HBD in HCO 3 - solution of HBA. Furthermore, the sustainable separation for oils (heptane, diesel oil and crude oil) is successfully completed, and the HDES is also easily recovered upon N 2 /65 °C. Finally, the HDES is effectively applied in removing petroleum hydrocarbons from oily wastes (oil sands and oily sludge). The results show that more than 98% oil is removed from oil sands, and 85.02% oil is also removed from oily sludge . Thus, the HDESs will be expected to treated as the effective extractant for sustainable and cleaner separation of petroleum hydrocarbons- contaminated waste.

1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([Bmim][HSO 4 ]) is utilized to catalyze transesterification of camelina oil with methanol. The major compositions of camelina biodiesel are saturated fatty acid esters (C16:0, C18:0), monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acid esters (C18:2, C18:3). The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, M methanol : M Camelina oil , and M [Bmim][HSO4] : M Camelina oil on biodiesel production are investigated in detail, and a general mathematical model is developed to well predict the biodiesel yield. Also, [Bmim][HSO 4 ] is thermally stable to recycle for four times with a high biodiesel yield. The fuel properties of camelina biodiesel are all comparable to the American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) standards.

Glycerophospholipids (GPLs) are typical membrane lipids with important physiological and pharmacological functions, but little is known about their distribution characteristics in economic seaweeds. This study established a systematic evaluation method, including conventional 2D 1H–31P heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) NMR for identifying GPLs and 1D 31P NMR for determining the contents, which were then applied to reveal subclasses characteristics of GPLs in 18 economic seaweeds in Asia. The results indicated that phosphatidylglycerol (PG) was the characteristic GPL subclass distributed in all of the 18 seaweeds (ranging from 0.08 to 1.75‰), generally with higher contents than that of known terrestrial plants. The characteristic chemical shifts of protons in the GPLs headgroup (H-1′) together with protons in the backbone (H-3) were summarized through 1H–31P HMBC spectrum, which were helpful in assigning GPL subclasses.

Glycerol carbonate, a high-value derivative of glycerol, finds extensive applications in the cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food industries, as well as in plasticizers and battery electrolytes. This study assessed the feasibility of extracting glycerol carbonate from glycerol using three solvents: 2-pentanone, cyclohexanone, and 4-methyl-2-pentanone. The extraction performance of these solvents was evaluated through liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) measurements at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of 303.2 K, 313.2 K, and 323.2 K. Although 4-methyl-2-pentanone exhibited high extraction selectivity, the distribution coefficient of glycerol carbonate in it was less than one. Conversely, while cyclohexanone provided a high distribution coefficient, its extraction selectivity was low. In contrast, 2-pentanone demonstrated a relatively balanced extraction selectivity and capacity. The Non-Random Two-Liquid (NRTL) model was used as an activity model in the equilibrium data correlation, and the corresponding binary interaction parameters were estimated. The regressed parameters of the NRTL model successfully reproduced the phase equilibrium trends observed for all systems investigated, facilitating process design and solvent screening for glycerol carbonate extraction from glycerol.

In this study, superoleophobic and superhydrophilic fabrics with self-healing property have been prepared by the use of chitosan (CS), sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP), Capstone FS-60 (FS-60), and dopamine hydrochloride as coating materials. The coated fabrics show oil contact angle of 154° for soybean oil, and water droplets can be spread on the surface in 1 s. Notably, it is further demonstrated that the coating has self-healing property. After undergoing home laundering, Martindale abrasion, or acid/base etching, the fabrics lose their superoleophobic and superhydrophilic property, while they can restore the superoleophobic and superhydrophilic property by just being wetted with distilled water and then heated in an oven. Additionally, the coated fabrics prove effective in separating oil/water mixtures. These fabrics, endowed with superoleophobic and superhydrophilic property along with self-healing capability, present innovative features and applications across diverse fields.

Selective superwetting surfaces preserve the opposite superwetting properties of oil and water and have attracted considerable attention for their application in oil-water separation owing to their efficient surface energy since 2000. Among these surfaces, superoleophobic/superhydrophilic surfaces are considered remarkable because of their anti-oil properties. The coexistence of superoleophobicity and superhydrophilicity poses a challenge based on the traditional surface/interface theory. However, the fabrication of superoleophobic surfaces requires extremely low surface energy, which is achieved by introducing compounds with long fluorocarbon chains. However, these compounds are harmful to the environment. Herein, a mesh with superoleophobic/superhydrophilic properties was developed by coating a chemically etched copper mesh substrate with photopolymerized short fluorocarbon chains and water-insoluble hydrophilic monomers. This mesh can separate different types of oil-water mixtures with a separation efficiency of >99 %. The mesh demonstrated excellent underwater stability as well as chemical and mechanical durability. The water resistance and chemical durability of the mesh are stronger than those of the control copper mesh using metal ions and long fluorocarbon chains. Moreover, oil-water separation was achieved even after immersion in deionized water and salt, acid, and alkali solutions. In addition, the mesh preserves the ability of oil-water separation after being cleaned and reused for 10 times. The proposed superoleophobic/superhydrophilic mesh offers a solution for continuous oil-water separation and has prospects for developing anti-fouling/sweat-absorbing fabrics and self-cleaning surfaces.

Membrane distillation technology could utilize low-grade heat to desalinate brine, but the membrane material often suffers from disadvantages of low permeation flux and weak robustness to contaminants. To address these issues, the commercial polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane was modified by cost-effective chemicals of tannic acid and (3-Aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane (APTES) to construct hydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic nano-rough structures on the surface to enhance its flux and oil-fouling resistance in direct contact membrane distillation. The results show that a high underwater oil contact angle of 180° is observed to the membrane surface due to the rough nanostructures functionalized by abundant hydroxyl groups. Despite the additional mass transfer resistance provided by the rough nanostructures, the flux was increased noticeably. This is mainly attributed to the strong interactions between the abundant hydroxyl groups of hydrophilic layer surface and water molecules, leading to a part of free water staying at intermediate transition state (IW). The mass transfer resistance of the hydrophilic layer itself is reduced as a consequence of decreased evaporation enthalpy of water, thereby increasing the flux. Moreover, while the flux of the pristine membrane is reduced by 84.18%, the flux of Janus membrane remains the same when treating mineral oil brine emulsions with oil concentration up to 1500 ppm in comparison with the result for 35 g l−1 brine solution, indicating that the Janus membrane is safe from the oil contamination. Our work provides a fine guidance for membrane distillation to treat high oily brine.

The photocatalysis of graphtic carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) material has been widely used for the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants. However, g-C 3 N 4 still has some drawbacks, such as the high recombination of photo-induced electron–hole pairs and weak absorption of light irradiation. To further improve the photodegradation performance of g-C 3 N 4 , a novel composite photocatalyst (CoO/ PT-C 3 N 4 ) has been prepared by using a one-pot calcination method, in which cobalt oxide (CoO) as a cocatalyst are introduced on the rectangular hollow substrate of g-C 3 N 4 (PT-C 3 N 4 ), The CoO/PT-C 3 N 4 composite photocatalyst delivers an excellent photodegradation performance for diesel oil under a simulated sunlight. It exhibits a high degradation efficiency of 95.92% after light irradiation for 2 h, which is much higher than that of pristine PT-C 3 N 4 . Free radical capture experiments manifest that the free radical of ·O 2− plays a major role for the photodegradation and main active radicals abide by the sequence: ·O 2− > ·OH > h + . Moreover, the CoO/PT-C 3 N 4 composite photocatalyst delivers an excellent cyclic stability, which only degrades 8.71% photodegradation efficiency after 10 cycles. The improvement of CoO/PT-C 3 N 4 composite photocatalyst is ascribed to the formation of a heterojunction between CoO and PT-C 3 N 4 , which promotes the separation of photo-induced carriers. This work paves a new way for the exploration of photocatalyst for the organic pollutant degradation.

Density and surface tension have been measured for mixtures of biodiesel+ n -butanol, biodiesel+diesel, and diesel+ n -butanol over the entire concentration range at 283.15 K and 293.15 K and atmospheric pressure, with the combined expanded uncertainties of 1.32 kg·m −3 and 1%, receptively. Densities were determined by a single-sinker densimeter; surface tensions were measured using the surface laser light scattering method. The experimental data showed that densities and surface tensions decreased as temperature increased. The excess surface tensions and excess densities were all negative, and further fitted to the Redlich-Kister equation.

As the challenge of enhancing oil recovery from reservoirs continues to grow, it becomes increasingly crucial to seek out new materials for oil displacement. Janus graphene oxide (JGO) with excellent interfacial activity stands out as a promising candidate, which enables it to locate crude oil and effectively displace it towards production wells. One key advantage of JGO is its ability to reduce interfacial tension and create interfacial films, attributed to JGO nanosheets adsorbing at oil–water interfaces. Another noteworthy property of JGO is its capacity to transform oil-wet rock surfaces into water-wet surfaces, which is because JGO nanosheets can interact hydrophobically with crude oil molecules on rock surfaces. In addition, JGO helps mitigate capillary resistance by altering the concave oil–water front to a flat state. Microscopic displacement shows that JGO nanosheets enlarge the sweep efficiency and oil-washing efficiency of water. Nuclear magnetic resonance experiment indicates that JGO nanofluid can increase oil recovery by 17.1 %. This research presents a comprehensive exploration of the interfacial activity of Janus nanofluid, spanning from the molecular scale to the micro and core scales.
