Capture of CO2 on γ-Al2O3 materials prepared by solution-combustion and ball-milling processes

A series of porous γ-Al₂O₃ materials was prepared by solution-combustion and ball-milling processes. The as-prepared powders were physicochemically characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and N₂ physisorption measurements and their performances in CO₂ adsorption at different pressures (0.5 to 1.5 MPa) and temperatures (40 to 60ºC) were investigated. It was found that γ-Al₂O₃ synthesized by the solution-combustion process and ball milled at 10 hr exhibited the best CO₂ adsorption performance at 60ºC and 1.5 MPa, achieving a maximum of 1.94 mmol/g compared to the four studied materials, as a result of their interesting microstructure and surface properties (i.e., nanocrystallinity, specific surface area, narrow pore size distribution, and large total pore volume). Our study shows that the γ-Al₂O₃ prepared by solution combustion followed by ball milling presents a fairly good potential adsorbent for efficient CO₂ capture.

Implications: In this work, γ-Al₂O₃ materials were successfully obtained by solution combustion and modified via ball milling. These improved materials were systematically investigated as solid adsorbents of accessible surface areas, large pore volumes, and narrow pore size distribution for the CO₂ capture. These studied solid adsorbents can provide an additional contribution and effort to develop an efficient CO₂ capture method as means of alleviating the serious global warning problem.

Biogeochemical Control of the Coupled CO2–O2 System of the Baltic Sea: A Review of the Results of Baltic-C

Past, present, and possible future changes in the Baltic Sea acid–base and oxygen balances were studied using different numerical experiments and a catchment–sea model system in several scenarios including business as usual, medium scenario, and the Baltic Sea Action Plan. New CO₂ partial pressure data provided guidance for improving the marine biogeochemical model. Continuous CO₂ and nutrient measurements with high temporal resolution helped disentangle the biogeochemical processes. These data and modeling indicate that traditional understandings of the nutrient availability–organic matter production relationship do not necessarily apply to the Baltic Sea. Modeling indicates that increased nutrient loads will not inhibit future Baltic Sea acidification; instead, increased mineralization and biological production will amplify the seasonal surface pH cycle. The direction and magnitude of future pH changes are mainly controlled by atmospheric CO₂ concentration. Apart from decreasing pH, we project a decreasing calcium carbonate saturation state and increasing hypoxic area.     

O3、H2O2／O3及UV／O3在焦化废水深度处理中的应用

采用O3、H2O2／O3及UV／O3等高级氧化技术（AOPs）对某焦化公司的生化出水进行深度处理,考察了O3与废水的接触时间、溶液pH、反应温度等因素对废水COD去除率的影响,确定出O3氧化反应的最佳工艺参数为：接触时间40min,溶液pH8．5,反应温度25℃,此条件下废水COD及UV254的去除率最高可达47．14％和73．47％;H2O2／O3及UV／O3两种组合工艺对焦化废水COD及UV254的去除率均有一定程度的提高,但H2O2／O3系统的运行效果取决于H2O2的投加量。研究结论表明,单纯采用COD作为评价指标,并不能准确反映出O3系列AOPs对焦化废水中有机污染物的降解作用。

Kinetics of the gas-phase reactions of alkylnaphthalenes with O3, N2O5 and OH radicals at 298 ± 2 K

Rate constants for the gas-phase reactions of the OH radical with 1-methylnaphthalene and of N₂O₅ with 1- and 2-methylnaphthalene and 2,3-dimethylnaphthalene have been determined at 298 ± 2 K by use of relative rate techniques. The rate constants determined were: for the reaction of OH radicals with 1-methylnaphthalene, (5.30 ± 0.48) × 10⁻¹¹ cm³ molecule⁻¹ s⁻¹; for the reaction of N₂O₅ with 1-methylnaphthalene, 2-methylnaphthalene and 2,3-dimethylnaphthalene, (3.3 ± 0.7) × 10⁻¹⁷, (4.2 ± 0.9) × 10⁻¹⁷ and (5.7 ± 1.9) × 10⁻¹⁷ cm³ molecule⁻¹ s⁻¹, respectively. In addition, an upper limit to the rate constant of 1.3 × 10⁻¹⁹ cm³ molecule⁻¹ s⁻¹ was measured for the reaction of O₃ with 1-methylnaphthalene at 298 ± 2 K. These data, when combined with data from previous literature, allow the atmospheric gas-phase removal processes of these alkylnaphthalenes to be quantified.     

Fe2O3-Cr2O3/TiO2系列催化剂的结构和脱硝性能

研究以纳米TiO2为载体,浸渍负载过渡金属氧化物,以CO为还原剂的脱硝催化剂的脱硝性能。实验中以计算量的Ni（NO3）2和Fe（NO3）3混合溶液浸渍纳米TiO2粉末,室温下搅拌30 min至混合均匀,放入旋转蒸发器中,70℃下至水分蒸干为止;所得粉末在550℃下、空气气氛中焙烧4 h即得所需催化剂。用以上方法分别制备2%Fe2O3-10%Cr2O3/TiO2、4%Fe2O3-8%Cr2O3/TiO2、6%Fe2O3-6%Cr2O3/TiO2、8%Fe2O3-4%Cr2O3/TiO2与10%Fe2O3-2%Cr2O3/TiO2等5种催化剂样品。实验结果表明,制备的催化剂具有较好的结构,分散较为均匀。对于CO＋NO反应,Fe2O3-Cr2O3/TiO2系列催化剂具有较好的催化活性,NO的转化率都达到了100%。其中,10%Fe2O3-2%Cr2O3/TiO2样品具有最好的低温活性,H2-TPR结果表明,这是由于10%Fe2O3-2%Cr2O3/TiO2催化剂更易于被CO预还原。     

Fe/Ga2O3-Al2O3催化甲烷还原NO的性能

以甲烷为还原剂的选择性催化脱硝技术(SCR-CH_4)是一种很有潜力的新的脱硝方法,但催化剂的催化活性比较低。为了提高催化剂的活性以及抗水能力,可使用Fe对Al_2O_3负载的Ga_2O_3催化剂进行改性。采用共沉淀法,制备了xFe/Ga_2O_3-Al_2O_3催化剂,在固定床反应器中测试其选择性催化CH_4还原NO的性能。使用XRD、N_2吸附脱附、XPS、H_2-TPR、Py-IR等方法进行表征。结果表明:经过Fe改性后的催化剂提高了中高温的催化活性,提高了催化剂的N_2选择性,并改善了催化剂的抗水特性;5Fe/Ga_2O_3-Al_2O_3催化剂在500℃、富氧条件下,达到76%的NO转化率和100%的N_2选择性;在5%水蒸气条件下,5Fe/Ga_2O_3-Al_2O_3在500℃仍保持60%以上的NO转化率。N_2吸附脱附结果显示,引入Fe后,催化剂保持了原有比表面积,并且大大增加了催化剂孔径,可提高催化剂抗水能力。XPS与UV-vis显示,5Fe/Ga_2O_3-Al_2O_3具有高含量的游离态Fe~(3+),可提高催化剂的中高温活性。H2-TPR结果显示,Fe的引入提高了催化剂氧化还原能力,增强了原有Ga_2O_3-Al_2O_3中高温的还原活性。Py-FT-IR结果显示,催化剂表面同时存在Lewis酸和Br?nsted酸,铁的引入增加了催化剂表面的Lewis酸量。因此,Fe修饰Ga_2O_3-Al_2O_3是提高Ga_2O_3-Al_2O_3催化剂的SCR-CH_4脱硝性能的有效方法。     

O3／H2O2高级氧化技术H2O2加入量的简易控制方法

对与臭氧有着不同反应活性的3类有机污染物，探讨并建立了O3／H2O2高级氧化技术H2O2较优投加量的简易控制方法。结果表明，水中存在溶解臭氧是H2O2与臭氧降解效率具有协同作用的必要条件，另外，H2O2的较优加入量直接依赖于目标有机污染物与臭氧的反应活性。对于不同的有机物及在常规的臭氧化水处理时间内，H2O2加入量控制在单独臭氧化处理时水中溶解臭氧的20-30倍（质量比）之间为宜。这种简易控制H2O2加入量的方法对推广O3／H2O2技术在实际废水处理中的应用具有重要的意义。

The effect of γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles on Escherichia coli genome

Extensive production and application of γ-Fe₂O₃ magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) has increased their potential risk on environment and human health. This report illustrates a genetic impact of γ-Fe₂O₃ magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) on Escherichia coli (E. coli). After 3000-generation incubation with MNPs addition, obvious genomic variations were revealed by using repetitive extragenic palindromic PCR (rep-PCR) DNA fingerprint technique. The physicochemical interactions between MNPs and bacteria could be responsible for such genomic responses. It was revealed that Fe³⁺ concentration increased in the medium. Transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) and flow cytometry (FCM) analysis consistently demonstrated the occurrences of adsorption and membranes-internalization of MNPs outside and inside cells. Both increased Fe³⁺ ion and the uptake of MNPs facilitated Fe binding with proteins and DNA strands, resulting in enhancing the mutation frequency of E. coli. Our results would be of great help to assessing the potential impact of MNPs on human and environment.

Air–land exchanges of CO2, CH4 and N2O measured by FTIR spectrometry and micrometeorological techniques

Micrometeorological flux-gradient and nocturnal boundary layer methods were combined with Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy for high-precision trace gas analysis to measure fluxes of the trace gases CO₂, CH₄ and N₂O between agricultural fields and the atmosphere. The FTIR measurements were fully automated and routinely obtained a precision of 0.1–0.2% for several weeks during a measurement campaign in October 1995. In flux-gradient measurements, vertical profiles of the trace gases were measured every 30 min from the ground to 22 m. When combined with independent micrometeorological measurements of water vapour fluxes, trace gas fluxes from the underlying surface could be determined. In the nocturnal boundary layer method the rate of change in mass storage in the 0–22 m layer was combined with fluxes measured at 22 m to estimate surface fluxes. Daytime fluxes for CO₂ were −0.78±0.40 (1σ) mg CO₂ m⁻² s⁻¹. Daytime fluxes of N₂O and CH₄ were very small and difficult to measure reliably using the flux-gradient technique, despite the high precision of the concentration measurements. Mean daytime flux for N₂O was 17±48 ng N m⁻² s⁻¹, while the corresponding flux for CH₄ was 47±410 ng CH₄ m⁻² s⁻¹. The mean nighttime flux of CO₂ estimated using the nocturnal boundary layer method was +0.15±0.05 mg CO₂ m⁻² s⁻¹, in good agreement with chamber measurements of respiration rates. Nighttime fluxes of CH₄ and N₂O from the nocturnal boundary layer method were 109±69 ng CH₄ m⁻² s⁻¹ and 2±3.2 ng N m⁻² s⁻¹, respectively, in good agreement with chamber measurements and inventory estimates based on the sheep and cattle stocking rates in the region. The suitability of FTIR-based methods for long term monitoring of spatially and temporally averaged flux measurements is discussed.
