Degradation of Azo Dyes by Photocatalysis of Fe(Ⅲ)-oxalate Complexes/H_2O_2 in Aqueous Non-ionic Surfactant Triton X-100 Solution

Two azo dyes,C.I.Reactive Red 195(RR195)and C.I.Acid Black 234(AB234)were degraded by photocatalysis of Fe(Ⅲ)-oxalate complexes/H2O2 in aqueous non-ionic surfactant,Triton X-100(TX-100)solution.Some factors affecting the dye degradation such as TX-100 concentration,irradiation intensity,and sodium chloride were investigated.The interaction and competition between dye and TX-100 during the degradation were also examined using spectrophotometry and maximum bubble pressure method,respectively.The results indicated that TX-100 showed a significant reduction effect on degradation of two azo dyes,but which was largely confined to TX-100 concentration below the Critical Micellar Concentration(CMC).And the reduction was considerably decreased above the CMC,especially in the case of AB234.Moreover,the reducing effect of TX-100 on dye degradation almost did not vary with irradiation intensity.And the impact of sodium chloride on dye degradation was limited by the addition of TX-100.

Impact of Cr(Ⅲ)complexation with organic acid on its adsorption in silts and fine sands

Trivalent chromium(Cr(Ⅲ))can form stable soluble complexes with organic components,altering its adsorption properties in the water-soil environment.This increases the risk of Cr(Ⅲ)migrating to deeper soils and transforming into toxic Cr(VI)due to the presence of manganese oxides in sediments.In this study,Citric Acid(CA)was selected as a representative organic ligand to prepare and characterize Cr(III)-CA complexes.The characteristics,mechanisms and environmental factors influencing the adsorption of Cr(Ⅲ)-CA on porous media(silts and fine sands)were investigated in the study.The results show that Cr(Ⅲ)coordinates with CA at a 1:1 molar ratio,forming stable and soluble Cr(Ⅲ)-CA complexes.Compared to Cr(III)ions,the equilibrium adsorption capacity of Cr(Ⅲ)-CA is an order of magnitude lower in silts and fine sands.The adsorption of Cr(Ⅲ)-CA in silts and fine sands is dominated by chemical adsorption of monolayers,following the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation and the Langmuir isotherm adsorption model.Varying contents of clay minerals and iron-aluminum oxides prove to be the main causes of differences in adsorption capacity of Cr(Ⅲ)-CA in silts and fine sands.Changes in solution pH affect the adsorption rate and capacity of Cr(Ⅲ)-CA by altering its ionic form.The adsorption process is irreversible and only minimally influenced by ionic strength,suggesting that inner-sphere complexation serves as the dominant Cr(Ⅲ)-CA adsorption mechanism.

In addition, other sodium phenoxides were also involved in this study for comparison. An electric conductivity study on the resulting complexes was carried out and all complexes were found to be semiconductors.

Synthesis and fluorescence properties of Tb(Ⅲ) complexes with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid derivatives

Two novel ligands named 4-styrylpyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (4-SPDA) and 4-(4-(2-(2, 6-dicarboxypyridin-4-yl)- vinyl)styryl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid(DSPDA) and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) were synthesized and characterized by infrared spectrometry, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance, elemental analysis and gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry. The ligand synthetic route was optimized. The fluorescence properties of the complex in solid state, in different kind of solvents and in solutions with different pH values were investigated in detail. The results show that the yields of DSPDA and 4-SPDA reach over 78% by Wittig-Horner reaction and other eight pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylic acid derivatives with different substituents on pyridine ring, and their complexes with Tb(Ⅲ) are also obtained. The fluorescence intensities of the complexes with electron-donating groups are more intense than those of the complexes with electron-withdrawing groups on pyridine ring; fluorescence intensities of the complexes are the strongest in neutral solution (pH=7), and the less the dipole moment of solvent molecule is, the stronger the fluorescence intensity is. It is found that the two ligands (4-APDA and DSPDA) are the good sensitizers for Tb(Ⅲ) ion.

Structure and Fluorescence Emission of Hetero-Nuclear Complexes of Europium-Lanthanum Nitrates with N,N′-Substituted Adipamide

A europium lanthanum hetero nuclear complex with new ligand N, N′ dimethyl N, N′ diphenyladipamide (MPAA) was prepared.
