The effect of oxide and fluoride addition on the electrolysis was investigated comprehensively. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to characterize some of the Mg-La alloy products and the sludges. As the content of MgO or La203 in the electrolyte increased, both the current efficiency and the mass of alloy product decreased, indicating that both MgO and La203 may take part in the reactions in the electrolyte. When the same mass of the oxide was added, compared with La203, MgO had a more pronounced effect on both the current efficiency and the mass of alloy product. XRD studies confirmed the formation of LaOC1 when MgO or LazO3 was added into the electrolyte. The formation of LaOCl sludge would be the main reason for the negative effect of the oxide addition on both the current efficiency and the mass of alloy. In the electrolytic system, the addition of CaF2 was not helpful to suppress the negative effect of MgO on the electrolysis, probably due to the complex reactions of the La compounds in the electrolyte.展开更多

The effects of important parameters, such as roasting temperature, holding time and stirring speed, were investigated and the process conditions were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). The results show that the effects of roasting temperature and holding time on the removal rate of F and Cl are the most significant, and the effect of stirring speed is the second. The defluorination rate reaches 92.6% while the dechlorination rate reaches 90.2%, under the process conditions of roasting temperature of 700 °C, holding time of 80 min and stirring speed of 120 r/min. The results indicate that the removal of F and Cl from fuming furnace production of zinc oxide fumes using microwave roasting process is feasible and reliable.展开更多

In particular, strategies involving fluorine have been used successfully to tune the surface chemistry, electronic structure, and morphology of TiO2 photocatalysts to improve their photocatalytic activity based on the strong complexation between fluoride ions and TiO2 and the high electronegativity of fluorine. In this review, we summarize the strategies involving fluorine to establish highly efficient TiO2 photocatalytic systems or fabricate highly efficient TiO2 photocatalysts. The main fluorine effects(i.e. the effects of fluorine on photocatalysis) include the following four aspects:(1) Surface effects of fluoride on TiO2 photocatalysis,(2) effects of fluorine doping on TiO2 photocatalysis,(3) fluoride-mediated tailoring of the morphology of TiO2 photocatalysts, and(4) the effects of fluorine on non-TiO2 photocatalysis. Additionally, the unique applications of these fluorine effects in photocatalysis, including selective degradation of pollutants, selective oxidation of chemicals, water-splitting to produce H2, reduction of CO2 to produce solar fuels, and improvement of the thermostability of TiO2 photocatalysts, are reviewed.展开更多
