New strategies for the desulfurization of fuels have been explored to meet the urgent need to produce cleaner gasoline. Adsorptive desulfurization（ADS） is one of the most promising complementary and alternative methods. Herein,nanocrystalline ferrite adsorbents were synthesized from metal nitrates and urea using a microwave assisted combustion method. A series of ADS experiments were performed using a fixed‐bed reactor to evaluate the ADS reactivity over the ferrites, which was found to have the order MgFe2O4〉NiFe2O4〉CuZnFe2O4〉ZnFe2O4〉CoFe2O4. This effect is explained by the fact that the low degree of alloying of Mg‐Fe and the doped Mg increased the interaction between Fe and S compounds,leading to a significant improvement in the desulfurization capability of the adsorbent.Additionally, Mg can dramatically promote the decomposition of thiophene. X‐ray diffraction and Mosbauer spectroscopy were used to characterize the fresh, regenerated, and sulfided adsorbents.Although the ferrite adsorbents were partially sulfided to bimetallic sulfides during the adsorption process, they were successfully regenerated after calcining at 500 °C in air.展开更多

Experimental results show that ND has stronger collecting ability to quartz than hematite. Different floatability of quartz and hematite was presented in the existence of depressant. Compared with lauryl amine, ND has stronger collecting performances to quartz. Satisfied separation result of artificially mixed sample was acquired with iron grade of concentrate of 59.92% and iron recovery of 88.85% when pulp pH value was 7.27 with 41.7 mg/L collector and 3.33 mg/L starch. Polar group properties calculation results indicated that ND has stronger collecting capability and better selectivity than lauryl amine. Measurement results of zeta-potentials and infrared spectrum showed that hydrogen bonding adsorption and electrostatic adsorption occur between the surface of ND and quartz.展开更多

The core-level shifts and charge transfers of the adsorbed surface iron sites calculated by DFT with periodic in- terfacial structures were confronted to the X-ray photoemission experiments. FT-IR results reveal that the interracial structure of sodium acetohydroxamate adsorbed on the goethite or hematite surface may be assigned to a five-membered ring complex. In agreement with the adsorption energies determined by the DFT calculations, a five-membered ring complex is formed via bonding of one surface iron atom of goethite （101） or （100） to both oxygen atoms of hydroxamate group, and these two oxygen atoms of the hydroxamate group correspond- ingly attach to two neighboring iron atoms of the goethite surface. But a five-membered ring complex between two oxygen atoms of the hydroxamate group and one surface iron atom of hematite （001） is formed without any extra attachments. The calculated core-level shifts of Fe2p for the interracial structures are correspondingly in good agreement with the experimental observed one, which confirmed the reliability of the calculated results.展开更多

The data of the amount of Cd sorption (Aq) and concentration of Cd in equilibrium solution(Ce), and the data of Aq and the heat effect (AH) caused by Cd^2+ sorption on goethite all fitted Langmuirisotherm. The amount of heat released from Cd sorption on goethite increased with the amount of Ce or Aq.The reaction process of Cd sorption on goethite may be divided into five stages and three plateaus, dependingon the variation of enthalpy change (.Hm) of Cd sorption with Aq, which implied three mechanisms ofinteraCtion between Cd and goethite. The experimental results showed that the microcalorimetry may beuseful for determination of microcalorie variation in soil.展开更多
