The data showed that this process had produced good effects under acidic conductions. Up to 90% 2 chlorophenol was removed after 90 minute reaction time with H 2O 2 of 25% COD Cr, in , while in UV/H 2O 2 system only 16 8% 2 chlorophenol was removed after one hour treatment. The optimal pH in this reaction occurred between pH 3 0 and pH 4.0. The reaction kinetics for photo assisted Fenton process experimented in this research was investigated. Kinetic models were proposed for the treatment of 2 chlorophenol wastewater. The reaction was found to follow the 2nd order. The equations of reaction kinetics are as follows:-d[RH]d t = K RH [RH][H 2O 2] 0exp (-K H 2O 2 t );-d[COD Cr ]d t = K COD Cr [COD Cr ][H 2O 2] 0exp(-K′ t ). The prediction of the models was found to be in a good agreement with experimental results, thus confirming the proposed reaction mechanism.展开更多

The analysis of back scattering photos and XRD examination of specimens reveal that the look like single compound layer is composed of several different components. The primary phase produced during reaction is Ni2Al3 and there exists a like two-phase field between NiAl3 and Ni2Al3. The high temperature phases like NiAl and Ni3Al are also found at low temperature. The results indicate that the key driving force of in-situ reaction is not temperature, but the atom concentration.展开更多
A series of TiO2-SnO2 nano-sized composite photo-catalysts containing Sn (9.3%-30.1%) were prepared from TiCI4 and SnCl4·5H2O by using sol-gel, supercritical fluid dry and solid-phase reaction (SCFD) combination ...A series of TiO2-SnO2 nano-sized composite photo-catalysts containing Sn (9.3%-30.1%) were prepared from TiCI4 and SnCl4·5H2O by using sol-gel, supercritical fluid dry and solid-phase reaction (SCFD) combination technology. Characterizations with X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) showed that, in addition to anatase type TiO2, a new active phase (Ti, Sn)O2 (with particle size of 2.0-4.3 nm) formed, and there were no SnO2 crystals observed in the range of the doping concentration studied. Photo-catalytic reaction of phenol was used as a model reaction to evaluate the catalytic activities of the obtained catalysts. Compared with pure TiO2 or Ti-Sn catalyst prepared with general sol-gel method, Ti-Sn nano-composite photo-catalyst thus obtained showed significant improvement in catalytic activity. The photo-catalytic degradation rate of phenol could reach as high as 93.5% after 7 h. The preparation conditions of the new phase (Ti, Sn)O2 were investigated and its catalytic mechanism was proposed. The photo-catalytic particles prepared using SCFD combination technology exhibited small particle size, large surface area and high activity.展开更多

We investigated the structures of salicylaldehyde phenylhydrozone(SP) in the ground state using density functional theory(DFT) with the B3LYP functional and the 6-311+G(d) basis set. All nine possible isomers of SP in the ground state consist of seven phenol forms and two ketone forms. Intrisic reaction coordinate(IRC) analysis discloses the existence of a cycle driven by the two proton transfer processes in the ground and excited states of SP, which suggests that no ketonic form could exist in the ground state. Further theoretical studies of the potential energy surfaces support a trans-cis conversion followed by a relaxation to the stable form of SP in the excited states.展开更多

The H atom starts to leave the Cl atom and is reflected by the C60 wall. The coherent nuclear dynamic behaviors of bond breakage and recombination of the HCl molecule occurring in both polarized parallel and perpendicular to the H-Cl bond axis are investigated. The radial oscillation is also found in the two polarization directions of the laser pulse. The relaxation time of the H-Cl bond lengths in transverse polarization is slow in comparison with that in longitudinal polarization. Those results are important for studying the dynamics of the chemical bond at an atomic level.展开更多

Methyl orange was selected as degradation target for photocatalytic experiments. The photocatalytic activities were investigated by visible spectro- photometer. Photocatalytic kinetics parameters were studied by the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model and Arrhenius formula. It was observed that the sea urchin-like morphology dramatically improved the photocatalytic activity of cuprous oxide. The photo-degradation belongs to the first-order reaction and the maximum degradation rate could reach 94.37%. The activation energy and pre-exponential factor are 41.18 KJ·mol-1 and 1.07 × 106, respectively. After seven times recycling, the sample still showed high photo-catalytic efficiency and stability.展开更多
