Different Fenton reagent treatments for HPAM degradation were compared. The effects of pH, hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2)), ferrous ion(Fe^(2+)), and tartaric ion(C_(4)H_(4)O_(6)^(2-)) concentrations were studied. The degradation reaction occurred within a wide range of pH(3–9). The HPAM degradation performance of photo-Fenton processes using solar light and UV were compared with that of the Fenton process. The degradation rate was found to be strongly dependent on the H_(2)O_(2)/Fe^(2+)/C_(4)H_(4)O_(6)^(2-)molar ratio. The HPAM degradation efficiency was 90%, and the chemical oxygen demand removal efficiency was 85%. HPAM could be degraded into a compound with a lower molecular weight, but it was difficult to achieve complete mineralization to CO_(2). The presence of intermediate products hindered further oxidation in the Fenton process.展开更多

The improvement of the rheological properties of the waxy oil system by the novel pour point depressant was investigated using macroscopic rheological measurements and microscopic observations. The results showed that EVAL-CNT nanocomposite pour point depressant (PPD) could significantly reduce the pour point and improve the low temperature fluidity of crude oil and had better performance than EVAL-GO at the same addition level. The best effect was achieved at the dosing concentration of 400 ppm, which reduced the pour point by 13 ℃ and the low-temperature viscosity by 85.4%. The nanocomposites dispersed in the oil phase influenced the precipitation and crystallization of wax molecules through heterogeneous crystallization templates, which led to the increase of wax crystal size and compact structure and changed the wax crystal morphology, which had a better effect on the rheological properties of waxy oil.展开更多

HPAM could be degraded into a compound with a lower molecular weight, but it was difficult to achieve complete mineralization to CO_(2).

文摘The non-noble metal modified sulfated zirconia was found easy to deactivate.Herein,highly active and highly stable non-noble core-shell Ni-S_(2)O_(8)^(2−)/Al_(2)O_(3)@ZrO_(2) catalysts(Ni-SA@Z-x,x=Al content in wt%)have been successfully prepared and investigated for n-pentane isomerization.The results showed that the core-shell Ni-SA@Z-30 provided a sustained high isopentane yield(63.1%)with little or no deactivation within 5000 min at a mild reaction pressure of 2.0 MPa,which can be attributed to the following factors:(i)carbon deposition was greatly suppressed by the large pore size and huge pore volume;(ii)the loss of sulfur entities was suppressed because the small and highly dispersed tetragonal ZrO_(2) particles can bond with the S species strongly;(iii)strong Brønsted acidity can be maintained well after the isomerization.The pore structures and acid nature of the core-shell Ni-SA@Z-x are entirely different from those of the normal structure Ni-S_(2)O_(8)^(2−)/ZrO_(2)-Al_(2)O_(3),even though the Al content and the compositions of the individual components are the same.The Al_(2)O_(3)cores endow the catalysts with high internal surface area and high mechanical strength.Meanwhile,the ZrO_(2) shell,which consists of more and smaller tetragonal ZrO_(2) particles because of the large surface area of the Al_(2)O_(3)core,promotes the formation of more stable sulfur species and stronger binding sites.
文摘The nanocomposite EVAL-CNT was produced by chemical grafting in the solution system through the esterification of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVAL) and carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (O-MWCNT), and its structural properties were characterized. The improvement of the rheological properties of the waxy oil system by the novel pour point depressant was investigated using macroscopic rheological measurements and microscopic observations. The results showed that EVAL-CNT nanocomposite pour point depressant (PPD) could significantly reduce the pour point and improve the low temperature fluidity of crude oil and had better performance than EVAL-GO at the same addition level. The best effect was achieved at the dosing concentration of 400 ppm, which reduced the pour point by 13 ℃ and the low-temperature viscosity by 85.4%. The nanocomposites dispersed in the oil phase influenced the precipitation and crystallization of wax molecules through heterogeneous crystallization templates, which led to the increase of wax crystal size and compact structure and changed the wax crystal morphology, which had a better effect on the rheological properties of waxy oil.
文摘Oxidative desulfurization from fuel oil is one of the important methods for deep desulfurization.The development of efficient oxidative desulfurization catalysts is crucial for improving the desulfurization performance.Successful encapsulation of phosphotungstic acid(HPW)and ionic liquid(BMImBr)inside the mesoporous cages of MIL-101(Cr)was accomplished through a combination of“bottle around ship”and“ship in bottle”methods.The obtained BMImPW@MIL-101(Cr)composite was characterized by XRD,FTIR,BET,SEM,XPS and ICP methods.Results indicated that the BMImPW@MIL-101(Cr)composites with PW^(3−) loading of 23.1–50.7 wt%were obtained,demonstrating that the“bottle around ship”method is beneficial to make full use of nanocages of MIL-101(Cr)to obtain expected high loading of active PW^(3−) .The BMImPW@MIL-101(Cr)exhibits excellent reusability with no evidence of leaching of active PW^(3−) and BMIm^(+),and well-preserved structure after successive cycles of regeneration and reuse.The significantly improved stability of BMImPW@MIL-101(Cr)as compared to HPW@MIL-101(Cr)is possibly because the leaching of the active PW^(3−) −sites can be greatly suppressed by forming large size of BMImPW owing to introduction of BMIm^(+)cation.The BMImPW@MIL-101(Cr)exhibited excellent catalytic activity for solvent free oxidative desulfurization of refractory sulfides.The enhanced oxidative desulfurization activity as compared to HPW@MIL-101(Cr)can be explained by the intimate contact of sulfides with active PW^(3−) sites owing the strong attraction of BMIm^(+)cation with the sulfides.

文摘Heterojunction composites were prepared by silane coupling agent grafting from synthesized graphitic carbon nitride(g-C_(3)N_(4))and commercially available zirconia(ZrO_(2)).The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)spectroscopy,UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy(DRS),photoluminescence(PL)spectroscopy,and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).The photocatalytic activity of the composites was evaluated by the degradation of methylene blue(MB)under visible light irradiation.The results showed that heterojunction composites of g-C_(3)N_(4) and ZrO_(2) could be successfully prepared by coupling agent grafting.The optimal mass ratio of g-C_(3)N_(4) and ZrO_(2) was 2:1,with an activity that was 3.8 times higher than g-C_(3)N_(4) and 15.3 times higher than ZrO_(2).This was ascribed to the stronger light absorption,faster interfacial charge transfer,and lower photogenerated carrier recombination of the heterojunction composites.

文摘The capacity fade of spinel lithium manganese oxide in lithium-ion batteries is a bottleneck challenge for the large-scale application.The traditional opinion is that Mn(Ⅱ) ions in the anode are reduced to the metallic manganese that helps for catalyzing electrolyte decomposition.This could poison and damage the solid electrolyte interface(SEI) film,leading to the the capacity fade in Li-ion batteries.We propose a new mechanism that Mn(Ⅱ) deposites at the anode hinders and/or blocks the intercalation/de-intercalation of lithium ions,which leads to the capacity fade in Li-ion batteries.Based on the new mechanism assumption,a kind of new structure with core-shell characteristic is designed to inhabit manganese ion dissolution,thus improving electrochemical cycle performance of the cell.By the way,this mechanism hypothesis is also supported by the results of these experiments.The LiMn2-xTixO4 shell layer enhances cathode resistance to corrosion attack and effectively suppresses dissolution of Mn,then improves battery cycle performance with LiMn_2O_4 cathode,even at high rate and elevated temperature.

文摘A new approach,named production of aryl oxygen-containing compounds from the catalytic pyrolysis of bagasse lignin(BL) over perovskite oxide,was proposed,A series of LaTixFe1-xO3(LTF-x) samples were prepared by the solid state reaction method.The crystal phase and morphology of LTF-x were characterized by XRD and SEM respectively.Catalytic pyrolysis performance of LTF-x was performed by TG-DTG and the distribution patterns of gaseous,liquid and solid products from BL was investigated using a fixed-bed micro-reactor.The optimal reaction conditions were determined:the pyrolysis temperature was 600℃,the mass ratio of mBL:mLTF-0.2 was 3:1,the veloeity of earrier gas was 100 ml·min-1.The gaseous produets were mainly eomposed of CO2,CO,CH4 and CnHm(n=2-4,m=2 n+2 or m=2 n),The main aryl oxygen-containing compounds in liquid products were phenolics,guaiacols,syringols and phenylates,the rest were benzenes,furans,esters and carboxylic acid.The total contents of aryl oxygencontaining compounds were from 62% up to more than 72% under the action of the perovskite.Moreover,the LTF-0.2 sample had nice regenerability.
文摘The controlled introduction of oxygen vacancies(OVs)in photocatalysts has been demonstrated to be an efficient approach for improving the separation of photogenerated charge carriers,and thus,for enhancing the photocatalytic performance of photocatalysts.In this study,a two‐step calcination method where ZIF‐8 was used as the precursor was explored for the synthesis of ZIF‐8‐derived ZnO nanoparticles with gradient distribution of OVs.Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements indicated that the concentration of OVs in the samples depended on the temperature treatment process.Ultraviolet–visible spectra supported that the two‐step calcined samples presented excellent light‐harvesting ability in the ultraviolet‐to‐visible light range.Moreover,it was determined that the two‐step calcined samples presented superior photocatalytic performance for the removal of NO,and inhibited the generation of NO2.These properties could be attributed to the contribution of the OVs present in the two‐step calcined samples to their photocatalytic performance.The electrons confined by the OVs could be transferred to O2 to generate superoxide radicals,which could oxidize NO to the final product,nitrate.In particular,the NO removal efficiency of Z 350‐400(which was a sample first calcined at 350℃ for 2 h,then at 400℃ for 1 h)was 1.5 and 4.6 times higher than that of Z 400(which was one‐step directly calcined at 400℃)and commercial ZnO,respectively.These findings suggested that OV‐containing metal oxides that derived from metal‐organic framework materials hold great promise as highly efficient photocatalysts for the removal of NO.
文摘Constructing bismuth oxyhalide solid solutions with a single homogeneous phase have intrigued the research community;however,a deeper understanding of the intrinsic origin for improved bulk-charge separation is still unclear.Herein,a series of Bi_(24)O_(31)Cl_(x)Br_(10-x) solid solutions with the same structural characteristics were synthesized by crystal structure regulation.Combining density functional theory calculation,Kelvin probe force microscopy,and zeta potential testing results,an enhanced internal electric field(IEF)intensity between[Bi_(24)O_(31)]and[X]layers was achieved by changing halogen types and ratios.This greatly facilitated bulk-charge separation and transfer efficiency,which is significant for the degradation of phenolic organic pollutants.Owing to the enhanced IEF intensity,the charge carrier density of Bi_(24)O_(31)Cl_(4)Br_(6) was 33.1 and 4.7 times stronger than that of Bi_(24)O_(31)Cl_(10) and Bi_(24)O_(31)Br_(10),respectively.Therefore,Bi24O31Cl4Br6 had an optimal photoactivity for the degradation of bisphenol A,which was 6.21 and 2.71 times higher than those of Bi_(24)O_(31)Cl_(10) and Bi_(24)O_(31)Br_(10),respectively.Thus,this study revealed the intrinsic mechanism of the solid solution strategy for photocatalytic performance enhancement with respect to an IEF.

文摘An efficient extraction-free oxidative desulfurization(ODS)process using a series of cross-linked polyionic liquid phosphotungstate(CLPIL-PW)catalysts is reported.The cross-linked PILs were prepared with DVB and 1-n-alkyl-3-vinyl imidazole hydrobromide(alkyl=ethyl,butyl,octyl,dodecyl),and were then assembled with phosphotungstic acid(H_(3)PW_(12)O_(40))to form the catalysts.The CLPIL-PWs have been applied to the oxidative removal of dibenzothiophene(DBT)from model oil with H_(2)O_(2) as an oxidant.The effects of ionic liquid(IL)cationic species,varying the DVB/IL molar ratio in the polymerization process,and varying operating conditions were investigated.The CLPIL-PWs were characterized by inductively coupled plasma(ICP)mass spectrometry,elemental analysis,scanning electron microscopy(SEM),Fourier transform infra-red(FTIR)spectroscopy,X-ray diffraction(XRD),^(13)C and^(31)P nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)spectroscopy.The polydivinylbenzene-co-1-n-octyl-3-vinyl imidazole phosphotungstate(P(DVB-OVIm)PW)exhibited the highest DBT removal efficiency(99.9%)and remarkable recyclability,and could be reused eight times without reducing its activity.Finally,an extraction-free ODS mechanism is proposed.
文摘The development of non-noble metal oxidation reduction catalysts(ORR)to improve microbial fuel cell(MFC)performance remains extremely challenging.Herein,the nitrogen-doped iron-based porous carbon nanotube Fe/N@MC-T ORR catalysts were derived from Fe/N-MOF by pyrolyzation using acetonitrile as the nitrogen precursor in a low-cost organic solvent.The Fe/N@MC-T catalysts under different pyrolysis temperatures were characterized by SEM,TEM,BET,XRD,and XPS techniques.Fe/N-MOF showed a smooth rice-like structure with a particle size of about 400×50 nm^(2).The Fe species in Fe/N@MC-T mainly exists in the form of zero-valent iron with a small amount of Fe3C.The results of electrochemical tests revealed that the onset and half-wave potentials of Fe/N@MC-700 were 0.89 V and 0.80 V,respectively,which were only slightly lower than those of the commercial Pt/C(0.92 V and 0.82 V).The MFC with Fe/N@MC-700 showed a highest power density of 864.1 mW/m^(2),which was about 2.25 times that of MFC with carbon cloth,and was slightly lower than that of MFC with Pt/C(20%)(1002.0 mW/m^(2)),which demonstrated that the Fe particles wrapped in carbon nanotubes possessed a relatively high ORR activity.

文摘Contact glow discharge electrolysis of some chloroanilines in sodium sulfate was investigated in different initial concentrations. Each of them underwent the dechlorination, deam-ination through oxidative degradation, and were eventually decomposed into hydrogen carbonate and carbon dioxide. It was testified that the chlorine atom and amidogen could be transformed into chloride ion and nitrite ion, respectively. Fe2+ has a remarkable catalytic effect on the degradation of them. On the basis of the detailed analysis of the intermediate products and kinetic behaviors, the reaction pathway was proposed, in which the attack of hydroxyl radical on the benzene ring of starting material might be a key step.
