钯掺TiO2光催化降解全氟辛酸

全氟辛酸(perfluorooctanoic acid,PFOA)以其分布广泛性、生物蓄积性、生物毒性强而成为全球关注的一种新型持久性有机污染物.采用化学还原法制备钯掺二氧化钛(Pd-Ti O2)催化剂,利用XRD、FESEM、UV-vis DRS对催化剂进行表征,并考察其在365 nm紫外光照射下对PFOA的光催化降解效果.结果表明,化学还原的制备方法使Ti O2粒径减小、比表面积增大且对紫外光的吸收性能增大,但并不引起PFOA光催化效果的改变.而Pd掺杂后大大增强了PFOA的降解效果,反应7 h后溶液中氟离子浓度为6.62 mg·L-1,是Ti O2(P25)的7.3倍.投加俘获剂与通入氮气的实验证明,在PFOA的降解过程中·OH起重要作用,氧气的存在可促进PFOA的降解.采用UPLC-QTOF-MS对产物进行鉴定分析,PFOA的可能降解过程是经h+氧化后发生脱羧基反应,产生的全氟烷烃自由基(·CnF2n+1)被·OH氧化,脱氟生成短链全氟羧酸.Pd能作为电子(e-)捕获剂、加速e-向O2等电子受体的转移,从而缓解e-累积,提高对PFOA的降解效果.     

高指数晶面TiO2对铬的吸附及光催化去除

由工业生产引起的铬污染是环境领域面临的一大挑战.二氧化钛(TiO_2)材料因其吸附催化的双重作用在铬的去除方面具有潜在应用前景.利用溶剂热法合成高指数晶面TiO_2{201},对其进行SEM、TEM、XRD及XPS表征,并用于Cr(Ⅲ/Ⅵ)的吸附及Cr(Ⅵ)的光催化还原,以达到从水体中去除铬的目的.所合成的TiO_2{201}为锐钛矿相,呈蒲公英状的层级结构. Langmuir吸附等温线结果表明,TiO_2{201}对Cr(Ⅲ)和Cr(Ⅵ)的最大吸附量分别为22. 7 mg·g-1和13. 2 mg·g-1,Freundlich模型拟合结果表明TiO_2{201}对Cr(Ⅲ)和Cr(Ⅵ)的吸附均易于进行,其1/n均小于0. 5.在紫外光照条件下,TiO_2{201}作为光催化剂可将毒性较强且吸附去除效果较差的Cr(Ⅵ)还原成Cr(Ⅲ),并以Cr(OH)3及Cr2O3的形式沉淀在TiO_2表面,XPS表征结果进一步证实了表面沉淀的存在.为探明TiO_2{201}光催化还原Cr(Ⅵ)的机制,分别研究光生空穴淬灭剂(EDTA-2Na)和光生电子淬灭剂(KBr O3)对Cr(Ⅵ)还原效率的影响,证明Cr(Ⅵ)的还原是由光生电子引起.

Ag/P-g-C3N4复合材料可见光催化降解双酚AF的机理研究

利用简单的热聚合及原位沉淀法制备了一系列不同质量比(1%～10%)的Ag/P-g-C_3N_4复合材料,采用XRD、SEM、TEM、UV-Vis DRS、FTIR、BET和XPS等表征手段对复合材料的形貌结构、光学特性和化学组成进行了表征.利用合成材料光催化降解双酚AF(BPAF),研究了溶液初始pH、溶解性有机质(DOM)对BPAF降解的影响,并对光催化降解机理进行了探讨.结果表明,在pH=7时,5%Ag/P-g-C_3N_4表现出最强的光催化性能,其在90 min内对BPAF的降解率达到100%.DOM在低浓度(0.5 mg·L~(-1))时促进了BPAF的光降解,而在高浓度时(2～10 mg·L~(-1))抑制了BPAF的光降解.活性基团捕获实验结果表明,在Ag/P-g-C_3N_4降解BPAF过程中,h~+和·OH起主要的作用,直接参与了BPAF的降解.相对于P-g-C_3N_4,Ag/P-g-C_3N_4光催化性能的增强主要是因为Ag的负载促进了e~-和h~+的分离,同时Ag单质的SPR效应提高了复合材料对可见光的吸收率,延长了光生载流子的寿命.     

Recent advances in thin film composites membranes for brackish groundwater treatment with critical focus on Saskatchewan water sources

Drinking water scarcity is an ever-increasing global concern. This issue appears as a greater threat to the countries with no access to sea water resources or rivers, since their potential water resources are only limited to ground waters only. There are serious concerns with the treatment of ground water resources, including landfill leachates, agricultural contaminations (pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers), and rural contaminations. Membrane separation has been proved to be the governing technology in water and wastewater treatment plants, as these methods are responsible for more than half of the market share of the world's desalination capacity. This study intends to offer a holistic view of the groundwater contamination with specific focus on Saskatchewan province in Canada, and the recent efforts in the groundwater treatment using thin film composite membrane technology. This study begins with an introduction of the general aspects of ground water and membrane separation, polluting agents, and their sources. It is followed by a discussion of Saskatchewan's groundwater status and various issues. Furthermore, the recent research that became available since 2010 is reviewed in details and the results are summarized with respect to purification efficiency. Different affecting parameters in a groundwater-thin film composite system are synthesized and an in-depth overview is presented.     

Seasonal variations of Rn concentrations in the air of a tunnel located in Nagano city

The seasonal variation of 222Rn concentrations in the air of tunnels constructed during World War II at Nagano City has been investigated. The determination of 222Rn concentrations in tunnel air was performed using a solid-state nuclear track detector technique. The monthly radon concentrations changed smoothly, decreasing towards winter and increasing towards summer, and it was found that the concentrations strongly correlate with the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the tunnel. In the innermost areas of the tunnel, the maximum concentration was observed in July, its value being about 6500 Bq m (-3). The concentrations of radon in the tunnel air decrease exponentially towards the openings of the tunnel, which indicates that the radon concentration in the tunnel is basically governed by diffusion and mixing of radon gas with air. These observations lead to the conclusion that the seasonal variation of the radon concentration in the tunnel air is mainly caused by a convection current due to a stack effect induced by the temperature difference between the tunnel air and the outside air.     

Preparation and performance of photocatalytic regenerationable activated carbon prepared via sol-gel TiO2

Preparation of photocatalytic regenerationable activated carbon （AC） is the key step for the practical application of in situ regeneration of exhausted AC. A novel photocatalytic regenerationable AC was prepared by sol-gel TiO2 in this work. The adsorption and regeneration performance of TiO2/AC were evaluated using phenol as model compound. Scanning electron microscope （SEM） and nitrogen （77 K） adsorption isotherm were used to determine the surface area, pore structure and the distribution of TiO2. The results showed that with the increase of TiO2 loading, adsorption capacity of TiO2/AC decreased and the regeneration efficiency increased. The photocatalytic regenerationable AC with suitable TiO2 loading （2 wt%） exhibited suitable adsorption capacity and regeneration efficiency. TiO2 located mainly in the entrance of macro-pore of carbon. The prepared TiO2/AC exhibited similar surface structure and pore structure with material carbon.
