Fe-Mn-sepiolite as an effective heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst for the decolorization of reactive brilliant blue

A study of the decolorization of reactive brilliant blue in an aqueous solution using Fe-Mn-sepiolite as a heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst has been performed. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra of the catalyst showed bending vibrations of the Fe-O. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the catalyst showed characteristic diffraction peaks of α-Fe₂O₃, γ-Fe₂O₃ and MnO. A four factor central composite design (CCD) coupled with response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to evaluate and optimize the important variables (catalyst addition, hydrogen peroxide dosage, initial pH value and initial dye concentration). When the reaction conditions were catalyst dosage= 0.4 g, [H₂O₂]= 0.3 mL, pH= 2.5, [reactive brilliant blue]_o = 50 mg·L⁻¹, and volume of solution= 500 mL at room temperature, the decolorization efficiency of reactive brilliant blue was 91.98% within 60 min. Moreover, the Fe-Mn-sepiolite catalyst had good stability for the degradation of reactive brilliant blue even after six cycles. Leaching of iron ions (<0.4 mg·L⁻¹) was observed. The decoloring process was reactive brilliant blue specific via a redox reaction. The benzene ring and naphthalene ring were first oxidized to open ring; these were then oxidized to the alcohol and carboxylic acid. The reactive brilliant blue was decomposed mainly by the attack of ·OH radicals including surface-bound ·OH radicals generated on the catalyst surface.

Hydroxyl radical generation by redox cycling of some chemotherapeutic antibiotics

The anticancer drugs: adriamycin, farmorubicin and mitomycin C greatly enhance the generation of hydroxyl radicals (HO^.) from H₂O₂ in the presence of Co(II) ions (CoCl2) at pH 7.4 and 8, as measured by the deoxyribose assay. Catalase, hydroxyl radical scavengers (mannitol, cysteine, glutathione, thiourea, lactic dehydrogenase) inhibited the degradation of deoxyribose confirming that HO‐radicals are responsible for the degradation of the carbohydrate.

2017年春季常州HONO观测及对大气氧化能力影响的评估

本研究于2017年4月在江苏省常州市环境监测中心使用一套基于湿化学法的仪器对大气中的HONO进行了实时在线观测,HONO浓度范围在0.2～13.9μg·m~(-3)之间,平均值为(2.9±2.3)μg·m~(-3);同时,对O_3、 HCHO、 VOCs、光解频率以及气象参数进行了同步监测.利用MCM箱体模式模拟得到白天·OH浓度最大值范围在1.0×10~6～1.4×10~7个·cm~(-3)之间.同时结合观测结果与模式模拟结果计算了HONO、 O_3、 HCHO和H_2O_2的光解以及烯烃臭氧化反应对·OH的生成速率,定量表征大气氧化性,揭示了这5种来源对大气氧化能力的影响:整体上O_3光解(46.4%)HONO光解(41.1%)烯烃臭氧化反应(10.9%)HCHO光解(1.5%)H_2O_2光解(0.1%);清晨时HONO光解对·OH生成起主要作用,之后随着O_3浓度的增加,O_3光解对·OH的贡献占主导地位;在17:00之后,由于太阳光解频率显著降低,烯烃臭氧化反应对·OH生成有主要贡献;甲醛与过氧化氢的光解对·OH的贡献可忽略.

水体中常见无机阴离子对TiO_2薄膜光催化还原Cr(Ⅵ)的影响

Modelling of stem biomass accumulation in Pinus densiflora seedlings exposed to aqueous-phase OH radicals generating mist

The present study aimed to evaluate the short-term biomass accumulation of forest trees exposed to wet acidic depositions. A hierarchical Bayesian model of tree growth was developed based on the data of a short-term experiment in which 2-year-old Japanese red pine (Pinus densiflora Sieb. et Zucc.) seedlings were exposed to aqueous phase OH radicals generated by an iron-oxalate-H₂O₂ mist (a pseudo-polluted dew) over two growing periods. We conducted a statistical comparison of tree growth between the control and pollution treatment groups by using the growth model incorporated the random effects due to the unknown characteristics of each seedling. The variability among seedlings is expressed in this model by the posterior probabilistic distributions of unobserved dry weight of a stem cohort before exposure treatment. The analysis of the effects of pollution treatment on the stem growth revealed that this treatment decreases the biomass allocation in the current year stems. However, the effects on the relative growth rate of pre-existing stems were unclear. Based on these results, we can speculate that in a polluted environment, the short-term growth of the young stems in the seedlings inhibited by pollution treatment, thereby resulting in the slowdown of long-term biomass accumulation. This can explain the patterns observed in the declining Japanese red pine forests that are subjected to OH-generating dews in the polluted area of western Japan.     

烟气条件对直流电晕自由基簇射NO氧化过程的影响

运用以湿空气为自由基源物质的直流电晕自由基簇射系统,研究了烟气在反应器内的滞留时间、烟气流速和NO浓度对NO氧化过程的影响.结果表明:烟气流速的增加会抑制电晕放电的发展,而烟气中NO浓度的增加则使放电变得更加容易.NO的氧化受烟气在反应器内滞留时间的影响较小,而它受烟气流速的影响较大.在2W的输入功率下,当烟气在反应器内的滞留时间从8.5s增加到34.2s时,NO的氧化率只从54.5 %提高到57.6 %.而在1.7W·h/m³的能量密度下,当烟气流速从1.4cm/s增加到6.3cm/s时,NO的氧化率从60.0%减少到38.6%,能量利用率也从20.8g/(kW·h)下降到了13.3g/(kW·h).在湿空气流量一定的情况下,NO初始浓度存在一个最佳值,本实验中最佳的NO浓度为100×10^-6左右.
