以沉淀法制备了高活性ZnO纳米丛(nanobushes,ZNB),以水热反应制备得到普通ZnO纳米颗粒(nanoparticles,ZNP).利用X射线衍射仪(XRD)、透射电镜(TEM)、扫描电镜(SEM)、比表面积测定仪(BET)和光致发光光谱(PL)等手段对ZNB和ZNP进行了表征,并比较了其光催化活性的差异.在紫外光(λ≤387 nm)照射40 min后ZNB使有机染料罗丹明B(Rhodamine B,RhB)完全褪色,而相同条件下ZNP仅能使RhB褪色53%.通过总有机碳(TOC)的测定,研究了ZnO对RhB深度氧化矿化程度,光照6 h后ZNB对RhB矿化率高达92%,而ZNP对RhB的矿化率只有77%.跟踪测定了光催化降解过程中活性氧化物种相对含量的变化,表明紫外光激发条件下,ZnO光催化反应机理主要涉及羟基自由基(.OH)历程,且ZNB产生活性氧化物种的量高于ZNP.  相似文献

Nanocomposites composed of two or more components with desirable performance have attracted tremendous attention, mainly due to the synergic effect between the components. The effective combination of ZnO and reduced graphene oxide would lead to ameliorate the photocatalytic performance. To enhance applicability of semiconductor photocatalytic, the composites used should be good interfacial contact governed by suitable particle size distribution. Herein we aim to fabricate the different crystallize size of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) in ZnO–reduced graphene oxide (ZnO–rGO) nanocomposites by sonochemical synthesis and subsequent facile drying treatment method. The Zn precursor, Zn(Ac)2, with a plenty of functional groups, was used as a starting source for both reduction of graphene oxide and formation of ZnO on rGO sheets through chemical bonds without the addition of hazardous reducing agents. LiOH was chosen as an assistive reagent to enhance the complete reaction between Zn(Ac)2 and GO in the formation of ZnO–rGO nanocomposites. More remarkably, drying condition has the great influence on the crystallize size of ZnO NPs in as-prepared ZnO–rGO nanocomposites. It is found that ZnO–rGO nanocomposites dried at ?50 °C (freeze drying) show the highest photocatalytic efficiency in the degradation of rhodamine B (RhB) as compared to ZnO–rGO nanocomposites by other drying conditions under visible-light irradiation. Correlating the crystallize size obtained by different drying temperatures with the photocatalytic activity, it is probed that the smaller crystallize size in ZnO–rGO nanocomposites enhances the interfacial contact and a chemical bonding between rGO and ZnO NPs leading to the effective separation of electrons and holes. In addition, the O 2 ·? anion was determined to be the main active oxidant by free radicals trapping experiment and a photodegradation mechanism of ZnO–rGO nanocomposites over rhodamine B (RhB) was proposed based on our observations.  相似文献

The photocatalytic performance of ZnO/ZnS hybrid nanocomposite was largely higher than that of the mere ZnO or ZnS nanoparticles, but the complicated procedure and misdistribution of final products limited its large-scale productions. The exploration of a novel synthesis route of ZnO/ZnS hybrid photocatalysts with high catalytic performance is becoming a crucial step for the large-scale application of ZnO/ZnS hybrid photocatalytic technique. Preparation and characterization of nanosized ZnO/ZnS hybrid photocatalysts were studied in this paper. The photocatalysts were obtained via microwave-hydrothermal crystallization with the help of sodium citrate. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), particle size distribution (PSD), and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The results indicated that so-synthesized ZnO/ZnS samples consisted of the high pure cubic (sphalerite) ZnS and hexagonal ZnO nanocrystallines with a narrow particle size distribution. The possible formation mechanisms of ZnO/ZnS nanocrystallines were mainly attributed to the superficially protective effect of citrate. The photocatalytic experiments demonstrated that the ZnO/ZnS photocatalysts exhibited a higher catalytic activity for the degradation of acid fuchsine than other monocomponents.  相似文献

Nanoparticles are now widely applied in products. The synthesis of nanomaterials using biological materials is an emerging field, notably for medical applications because biologically derived compounds can be safe. For instance, calcium phosphate is a natural biomineral that possesses an excellent biocompatibility due to its chemical similarity to human hard tissue such as bone and teeth. Here, we synthesized calcium phosphate nanoparticles by using bark extract of Spanish cherry (Mimusops elengi). Calcium phosphate nanoparticles showed an absorbance at 275 nm by UV–visible analysis and particle size of 25 nm by nanoparticle tracking and analysis. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed the presence of aromatic amines as a capping and reducing agent. Transmission electron microscopy showed the presence of polydispersed spherical nanoparticles with an average size of 50 nm. Measurements of zeta potential revealed the stability of the synthesized calcium phosphate nanoparticles. These particles demonstrated antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. We conclude that the synthesis of calcium phosphate nanoparticles by using a M. elengi is easy, eco-friendly and scalable.  相似文献

Highly dispersed gold nanoparticles were supported on coal-based activated carbon (AC) by a sol immobilization method and were used to investigate their catalytic activity for low-level ozone decomposition at ambient temperature. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to characterize the catalysts before and after ozone decomposition. The results showed that the supported gold nanoparticles prepared with microwave heating were much smaller and more uniformly dispersed on the activated carbon than those prepared with traditional conduction heating, exhibiting higher catalytic activity for ozone decomposition. The pH values of gold precursor solution significantly influenced the catalytic activity of supported gold for ozone decomposition, and the best pH value was 8. In the case of space velocity of 120000h−1, inlet ozone concentration of 50mg/m3, and relative humidity of 45%, the Au/AC catalyst maintained the ozone removal ratio at 90.7% after 2500min. After being used for ozone decomposition, the surface carbon of the catalyst was partly oxidized and the oxygen content increased accordingly, while its specific surface area and pore volume only decreased a little. Ozone was mainly catalytically decomposed by the gold nanoparticles supported on the activated carbon.  相似文献

Semiconductor photocatalysis is a solution to issues of environmental pollution and energy shortage because photocatalysis can use solar energy to degrade pollutants. The photocatalytic activity can be improved by using composites of ZnO and other semiconductors. Here, composites of ZnO and polymeric graphite-like C3N4 (g-C3N4) with high photocatalytic activities were prepared by microwave synthesis. Products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet–visible and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B was tested under irradiation from a Xe lamp. Results show that adding graphite-like C3N4 promotes the photocatalytic activity of ZnO. Composites with 1.0 wt% g-C3N4 showed the best photodegradation efficiency, and the reaction average energy was approximately 33.71 kJ mol?1.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to prepare a new photocatalyst with high activities for degradation of organic pollutants. Coupled ZrO2/ZnO photocatalyst was prepared with a simple precipitation method with cheap raw materials zinc acetate and zirconium oxychloride, and was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Reactive brilliant red X-3B was used as a model compound to investigate the photocatalytic activity of synthesized catalysts in water under 254 nm UV irradiation. Results show that the optimal calcination temperature and coupling molar ratio of Zr were 350°C And 2.5%, respectively. At the calcination temperature of 350°C, ZrO2 was dispersed on the surface of hexagonal ZnO in the form of amorphous clusters. The particle size of ZrO2/ZnO decreased with the decrease of calcination temperature and the increase of Zr coupling amount. ZrO2/ZnO has better photocatalytic activity for degradation of reactive brilliant red (RBR) X-3B than pure ZnO and P25-TiO2.  相似文献

Photocatalytic oxidation using semiconductors is one of the advanced oxidation processes for degradation of organic pollutants in water and air. TiO2 is an excellent photocatalyst that can mineralize a large range of organic pollutants such as pesticides and dyes. The main challenge is to improve the efficiency of the TiO2 photocatalyst and to extend TiO2 light absorption spectra to the visible region. A potential solution is to couple TiO2 with a narrow band gap semiconductor possessing a higher conduction band such as bismuth oxide. Therefore, here we prepared Bi2O3/TiO2 heterojunctions by the impregnation method with different Bi/Ti ratio. The prepared composites have been characterized by UV–Vis diffused reflectance spectra and X-ray diffraction. The photocatalytic activity of the heterojunction has been determined from the degradation of orange II under visible and UV light. Results show that Bi2O3/TiO2 heterojunctions are more effective than pure TiO2-anatase under UV-A irradiation, with an optimum for the Bi/Ti ratio of 5 %, for the photocatalytic degradation of Orange II. However, the photocatalytic activity under irradiation at λ higher than 420 nm is not much improved. Under UV–visible radiation, the two semiconductors are activated. We propose a mechanism explaining why our products are more effective under UV–visible irradiation. In this case the charge separation is enhanced because a part of photogenerated electrons from the conduction band of TiO2 will go to the conduction band of bismuth oxide. In this composite, titanium dioxide is the main photocatalyst, while bismuth oxide acts as adsorbent photosensitizer under visible light.  相似文献

•ZnO/Perlite inactivated 72% of bioaerosols in continuous gas phase. •TiO2 triggered the highest level of cytotoxicity with 95% dead cells onto Poraver. •Inactivation mechanism occurred by membrane damage, morphological changes and lysis. •ZnO/Poraver showed null inactivation of bioaerosols. •Catalysts losses at the outlet of the photoreactor for all systems were negligible. Bioaerosols are airborne microorganisms that cause infectious sickness, respiratory and chronic health issues. They have become a latent threat, particularly in indoor environment. Photocatalysis is a promising process to inactivate completely bioaerosols from air. However, in systems treating a continuous air flow, catalysts can be partially lost in the gaseous effluent. To avoid such phenomenon, supporting materials can be used to fix catalysts. In the present work, four photocatalytic systems using Perlite or Poraver glass beads impregnated with ZnO or TiO2 were tested. The inactivation mechanism of bioaerosols and the cytotoxic effect of the catalysts to bioaerosols were studied. The plug flow photocatalytic reactor treated a bioaerosol flow of 460×1 06 cells/m3air with a residence time of 5.7 s. Flow Cytometry (FC) was used to quantify and characterize bioaerosols in terms of dead, injured and live cells. The most efficient system was ZnO/Perlite with 72% inactivation of bioaerosols, maintaining such inactivation during 7.5 h due to the higher water retention capacity of Perlite (2.8 mL/gPerlite) in comparison with Poraver (1.5 mL/gPerlite). However, a global balance showed that TiO2/Poraver system triggered the highest level of cytotoxicity to bioaerosols retained on the support after 96 h with 95% of dead cells. SEM and FC analyses showed that the mechanism of inactivation with ZnO was based on membrane damage, morphological cell changes and cell lysis; whereas only membrane damage and cell lysis were involved with TiO2. Overall, results highlighted that photocatalytic technologies can completely inactivate bioaerosols in indoor environments.  相似文献

The synthesis of silver doped nano-particulate titanium dioxide (Ag/TiO2) using a microemulsion method and an investigation of its photocatalytic activity for the degradation of Acid Red 27 in distilled water under UV-irradiation is reported. The prepared Ag/TiO2 is characterized using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The size of the Ag nanoparticles is around 5–15?nm, with almost uniform distribution on the TiO2 particles. The efficiency of the photocatalytic process is evaluated to establish the optimum conditions, found to be at 2?wt% of Ag loading on TiO2, catalyst dosage of 400?mg?L?1, and calcination temperature of 300°C. Complete decolorization of the dye solution on Ag/TiO2 was observed in 20?min of UV irradiation in the optimum conditions.  相似文献

Ambient formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acetone are harmful air pollutants with potential carcinogenic effects on human health. They are considered as important photochemical products from photo-oxidation of atmospheric hydrocarbons. However, little is known on the effet of photodegradation of air pollutants on δ13C values. Here, we report the first 13C isotope evidence for the photochemical production of ambient formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acetone. Air samples were collected each day during early morning, noon, early afternoon, and late afternoon on 17–19 September 2008 in Guangzhou by drawing air through 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine-coated cartridges. The samples were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography for concentration analysis and then using gas chromatography-combustion-isotope ratio mass spectrometry for δ13C analysis. Our results show that ambient formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acetone were enriched by 1–5 ‰ in 13C in the early afternoon relative to other sampling durations, and they also exhibited the highest concentrations in the early afternoon. Measured δ13C values of formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acetone were in the range from ?37.15 to ?29.01 ‰. The observed enrichment in 13C implied important photochemical production together with the highest concentrations in the early afternoon. Especially, measured δ13C range from ?37.15 to ?29.01 ‰ was in accordance with forecasted δ13C range from ?43 to ?28 ‰ based on the mass balance in 13C between the carbonyls and its major hydrocarbon precursors, providing important 13C isotope evidence for the photochemical production of ambient formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, and acetone.  相似文献

Nanoparticles occurring in the environment originate either from engineered, synthetically produced nanoparticles, or from naturally produced nanoparticles. The latter can be formed in natural media by light-induced reduction of metal ions in presence of natural organic matter, such as humic substances occurring widely in waters, soils and sediments. There is actually few knowledge on the effect of sunlight and of the nature of organic matter on nanoparticle formation. Therefore, we studied here the photoreduction of silver(I) ion to silver nanoparticles with and without ferrous ion under oxic and anoxic conditions, using humic and fulvic acids as proxies of natural organic matter. UV light-induced formation of silver nanoparticles was monitored up to 60 min by measuring surface plasmon resonance in air-saturated mixture and nitrogen-saturated mixture of silver(I) ion–organic matter. Results show that the surface plasmon resonance intensity was about 2.5 times higher in the nitrogen-purged solution mixture than the air-saturated solution. This finding suggests the oxygen-containing species had no major role in forming silver nanoparticles. Therefore, photo-driven formation of silver nanoparticles most likely involved photoactivation of silver(I) ion and natural organic matter complexes. We observed also that both iron(II) and iron(III) ions highly modified the surface plasmon resonance spectra of the particles with broader features. Results also reveal that in the presence of humic acid, the intensity of the surface plasmon resonance peak decreased by at least 50 %, while almost no change in the intensity was seen when fulvic acid was used. Overall, our findings demonstrate that the ligand–metal charge transfer process, affected by the nature of organic matter, i.e., humic acid versus fulvic acid, was influenced by redox iron species.  相似文献

In this investigation, the concentrations of particles in ambient air, gaseous elemental mercury (GEM), and particulate-bound mercury (Hg(p)) in total suspended particulates (TSP) as well as dry deposition at a (Traffic) sampling site at Hung-kuang were studied during the day and night in 2012. The results reveal that the mean concentrations of TSP in ambient air, GEM, and Hg(p) were 69.72 μg/m3, 3.17, and 0.024 ng/m3, respectively, at the Hung-kuang (Traffic) sampling site during daytime sampling periods. The results also reveal that the mean rates of dry deposition of particles from ambient air and Hg(p) were 145.20 μg/m2 min and 0.022 ng/m2 min, respectively, at the Hung-kuang (Traffic) sampling site during the daytime sampling period. The mean concentrations of TSP in ambient air, GEM, and Hg(p) were 60.56 μg/m3, 2.74, and 0.018 ng/m3, respectively, at the Hung-kuang (Traffic) sampling site during the nighttime sampling period. The mean rates of dry deposition of particles and Hg(p) from ambient air were 132.58 μg/m2 min and 0.016 ng/m2 min, respectively, at the Hung-kuang (Traffic) sampling site during the nighttime sampling period.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to characterize the occurrence and size distributions of ten species of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the ambient air of coking plants. Particulate-matter samples of four size fractions, including ≤2.1, 2.1–4.2, 4.2–10.2, and ≥10.2 μm, were collected using a Staplex234 cascade impactor during August 2009 at two coking plants in Shanxi, China. The PAHs were analyzed by a gas chromatograph equipped with a mass-selective detector. The concentrations of total particulate-matter PAHs were 1,412.7 and 2,241.1 ng/m3 for plants I and II, and the distributions showed a peak within the 0.1–2.1 μm size range for plant I and the 0.1–4.2 μm for plant II. The size distributions of individual PAHs (except fluoranthene) exhibited a considerable peak within the 0.1–2.1 μm size range in coking plant I, which can be explained by the gas–particle partition mechanism. The ambient air of the coking plant was heavily polluted by PAHs associated with fine particles (≤2.1 μm), and benzo[b]fluoranthene made the largest contribution to total PAHs. The exposure levels of coking-plant workers to PAHs associated with fine particles were higher than to PAHs associated with coarse particles. Benzo[b]fluoranthene, benzo[a]pyrene, and dibenzo[a,h]anthracene should be the primary pollutants monitored in the coking plant. This research constitutes a significant contribution to assessing the exposure risk of coking-plant workers and providing basic data for PAH standards for ambient air in coking plants.  相似文献

Dye wastewater is a major source of toxic aromatic amines released into the environment. Semiconductor photocatalysis is a clean, solar-driven process for the treatment of dye wastewater. To enhance applicability of semiconductor photocatalysis, the catalyst used should be visible light active. Here we report a facile synthesis of a highly visible-light-active nitrogen-doped tungsten oxide, N-WO3, by thermal decomposition of peroxotungstic acid–urea complex. The structure and properties of N-WO3 are characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy. The photodegradation of amaranth catalyzed by N-WO3 is evaluated in a batch system under visible and ultraviolet A (UVA) light. Our results show successful doping of N in both interstitial and substitutional sites and the presence of N2-like species. The N doping surprisingly expands the usable portion of the solar spectrum up to the near-infrared region and enhances the photocatalytic activity. At typical experimental conditions such as 25 mg/L of amaranth, 1 g/L of N-WO3, and pH 7, 100 % degradation of amaranth is achieved within 2 h under both visible and UVA light. The photocatalytic activity of N-WO3 is maintained in repeated cycles, indicating its exceptional photostability. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that a reusable, highly visible-light-active N-WO3 can be obtained through thermal decomposition of peroxotungstic acid–urea complex.  相似文献

Hydroxyl-enriched materials are promising boron adsorbents. However, the use of these materials is hampered by issues of separation, recovery, and selectivity, notably due to the presence of interfering ions. Therefore, we synthesized here a cheap magnetic nanopowder, which was further functionalized with polyvinyl alcohol and glycidol to produce boron-selective adsorbents. We studied their selectivity and removal efficiency using batch and fixed-bed systems. Sorption was studied at both concentrated and trace amounts of boron. Results show that nanopowders have 5.3–6.5 nm pore sizes and 145–203 m2/g surface areas, using Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis. Polyvinyl alcohol-functionalized particles removed 93 % of boron at 5 mg/L at pH 7 in 30 min, whereas only 68 % of boron was removed by glycidol-functionalized particles. However, at higher boron concentration, of 50 mg/L, glycidol-functionalized particles showed higher adsorption affinity of 68.9 mg/g. We conclude that internal hydroxyl groups of polyvinyl alcohol-functionalized particles are less accessible at higher boron concentration. This is the first report on magnesium ferrites for boron recovery. The spent adsorbents were separated easily from the aqueous media by an external magnet and repeatedly used. Overall, our findings demonstrated that the hydroxyl-enriched magnetic nanopowders are a better alternative to the existing boron adsorbents regarding magnetic separation, reusability, and selectivity.  相似文献

In this study, we have evaluated the ability of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles to induce pulmonary and extrapulmonary toxicities was examined in rats following intratracheal (IT) instillation. Lungs of rats were instilled IT with either phosphate-buffered saline (PBS)?+?1% Tween 80, ZnO nanoparticles, carbonyl iron or quartz particles at a dose of 1 or 5?mg?kg?1 body weight. Following exposure, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, blood samples and organs including lung, liver, kidneys, heart, pancreas, and brain were collected at 24?h, 1 week, or 1 month of post instillation of nanoparticles and different parameters estimated to assess toxicity. BAL fluid was analyzed for lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) to assess pulmonary toxicity. Exposures to ZnO or quartz particles produced transient dose-dependant increase in BAL fluid LDH and ALP activities at all post exposure periods. Blood samples were analyzed for the tissue damage biomarkers to assess extrapulmonary toxicity. Histopathological examination of lung, liver and kidneys revealed dose-dependent degeneration and necrosis which worsened at 1 week post-instillation periods but recovered at 1 month post instillation. Histopathological examination of rat pancreas, heart, and brain exposed to quartz or ZnO particles showed no marked changes. Data suggest the instillation of ZnO nanoparticles produced a greater pulmonary toxicity in rats comparable with quartz; and extrapulmonary toxicities of these ZnO nanoparticles might be due to translocation into liver and kidney.  相似文献
