Semi-closed synthesis of nitrogen and oxygen Co-doped mesoporous carbon for selective aqueous oxidation

Heteroatom-doped meso/micro-porous carbon materials are conventionally produced by harsh carbonization under an inert atmosphere involving specific precursors, hard/soft templates, and heteroatom-containing agents. Herein, we report a facile synthesis of N and O co-doped meso/micro-porous carbon (NOMC) by template-free carbonization of a small-molecule precursor in a semi-closed system. The semi-closed carbonizaiton process yields hydrophilic NOMCs with large surface area in a high yield. The porous structure as well as the elemental composition of NOMCs can be modulated by changing the holding time at a particular temperature. NOMCs as metal-free heterogeneous catalysts can selectively oxidize benzyl alcohol and its derivatives into aldehydes/ketones with>85％conversion in aqueous solution, which is much higher than that of the control sample obtained in tube furnace (21％conversion), mainly due to their high N content, high percentage of pyridinic N, and large surface area. The presence of O-containing moieties also helps to improve the hydrophilicity and dispersion ability of catalysts and thus facilitates the mass transfer process during aqueous oxidation. The NOMC catalysts also dispayed excellent activity for a wide range of substrates with a selectivity of>99％.

Recovery of gold by chicken egg shell membrane-conjugated chitosan beads

We have successfully prepared a bead-type adsorbent from two materials with different adsorption characteristics. Heavy metals were removed by greatly swollen egg shell membrane-conjugated chitosan beads. The egg shell membrane accumulated and removed precious metal ions from a dilute aqueous solution with a high affinity in a short contact time. Experiments suggested that chitosan beads could take up gold ions with great capacity and selectivity by conjugation with egg shell membrane. Under certain conditions, the selective removal of gold and copper in a mixture of gold and copper ions by egg shell membrane-conjugated chitosan beads was 100% and 2%, respectively. Egg shell membrane-conjugated chitosan beads can be seen as a promising material to recover gold in wastewater from various industries, such as electroplating.     

不同粒径泥沙理化特性对磷吸附过程的影响

以北京大兴南海子湖表层沉积物为研究对象,测试分析了0.147～0.246 mm(细砂)、0.074～0.147 mm(极细砂)、0.0385～0.0740 mm(粉粒)和<0.0385 mm(粉粒粘粒混合物)4种粒径泥沙对磷的吸附行为,并采用相关分析及逐步回归分析探讨不同粒径沉积物中有机质(OM)、Fe、Al、Ca、Mn和TP含量对磷吸附过程的影响。结果表明,二级动力学方程和Langmuir模型能较好地描述南海子不同粒径泥沙的吸附动力学及等温吸附过程(R2>0.90)。粒径对单位质量泥沙吸附磷量具有明显影响,粉粒粘粒混合物>粉粒>细砂>极细砂。总体上,泥沙有机质(OM)、TP、Fe、Al、Ca和Mn含量随粒径的减小而增大,且粘粒对其影响较大。不同粒径泥沙(OM)、Fe、Al、Ca和Mn含量之间存在极显著正相关关系(P<0.01),且均对单位质量泥沙最大吸附量(Xm)和饱和吸附量(Cse)具有正效应,其中Al含量对该参数的影响更为显著。这说明泥沙对磷的吸附行为可能受到粒径和化学成分的共同影响。     

Economic analysis of conventional versus selective demolition—A case study

Studies on selective demolition (also named deconstruction) in the past few years have produced some high quality economic, material and environmental information. Economic data, however, varies considerably between regions since local conditions strongly influence labour costs, tipping fees and/or market prices for recovered materials. Regional financial and regulatory constraints will bind the economic viability of conventional and selective demolition choices, which are essentially economic in a free market. Given this, the present study evaluates the economic implications of the two demolition types by analyzing a case study in Portugal. A few scenarios are considered, based on possible waste management options, some of which favour selective demolition over the conventional type.     

互花米草生物炭的添加对土壤吸附三氯生的影响及其机制研究

互花米草作为入侵物种,在我国沿海分布广泛,对沿海生态造成负面影响.本研究以互花米草资源化利用为出发点,在300℃和600℃下将其热解分别制得BC300和BC600两种生物炭,采用批量平衡法研究了生物炭添加对土壤吸附三氯生(TCS)的影响及其机制.结果表明,BC300内含有未炭化有机质,对TCS的吸附以分配作用为主,有利于对高浓度TCS的吸附;BC600有较大的比表面积,对TCS的吸附以表面吸附为主,有利于对低浓度TCS的吸附.生物炭添加能够促进土壤对TCS的吸附,且吸附量随生物炭添加比例的增加而增加;添加BC300的土壤对TCS的吸附量要显著高于添加BC600的土壤,这主要与生物炭的结构特征及其对土壤p H值的影响有关.因此,添加300℃下制备的互花米草生物炭可以有效地降低土壤中TCS的环境风险,同时也能为护花米草的资源化利用提供一条可行途径.

溶解性有机质对铁铝土吸附2,4-D的影响

以动力学吸附和等温吸附实验研究了2,4-D在铁铝土中的吸附特征,并比较了不同亲/疏水性溶解性有机质（DOM）对此的影响.结果表明：2,4-D在铁铝土中的动力学吸附符合伪一级动力学方程,等温吸附符合Henry,Freundlich方程,是一个物理作用主导的,自发的,放热的非均质吸附过程.吸附系数K_d为0.61~2.02L/kg,是一种难吸附有机污染物,对地下水存在环境风险.吸附量受土壤pH值影响显著,与土壤中矿物含量,粘粒组成等也密切相关.DOM共存条件下,高疏水性DOM,中疏水性DOM抑制了2,4-D在铁铝土的吸附,使K_d值下降10.7%~58.8%.低疏水性DOM对铁铝土吸附2,4-D作用不明显.DOM对铁铝土吸附2,4-D的作用效应与土壤理化性质和DOM性质密切相关.土壤矿物组分越多,粘粒含量越高,堵孔效应越大.DOM疏水性越大,对2,4-D吸附作用的增溶作用,堵孔作用也越大,其中HOA,HON是关键组分.

采用共沉淀法合成Fe3O4纳米磁性颗粒,用透射电子显微镜(TEM)、X射线衍射仪(XRD)以及振动样品磁强计(VSM)对Fe3O4纳米磁性颗粒的粒径、形貌和磁性进行表征并研究Fe3O4纳米磁性微粒对全氟辛磺酸盐的吸附。结果表明:在PFOS初始浓度4 mg/L,pH为3,反应时间24 h,Fe3O4纳米磁性微粒投加量1.25 g/L,对全氟辛磺酸盐去除率达到90%。Fe3O4纳米磁性微粒对PFOS的吸附符合Freundlich吸附方程。     

悬浮泥沙对酚类化合物的吸附特性研究

研究了4种分别取自长江口和杭州湾的悬浮泥沙样品对苯酚、邻氯酚和2,4-二氯酚的吸附特性.结果表明,在12 h内可以达到对酚类化合物的吸附平衡,对苯酚的吸附量小,且不同样品间无显著差别,样品对酚类化合物吸附量随着酚类化合物氯化程度的提高而增大,与样品粒径分布、比表面积、有机物含量有关.在酚类化合物初始浓度＜2.0 mg/L时,样品对酚类化合物的等温吸附可以用Freundlich吸附等温式来表征,计算得到吸附常数Koc分别为622～1 410、3 287～3 707、6 444～8 787.挥发酚国家二级排放标准限定浓度为0.5 mg/L以下,此浓度下水体中悬浮泥沙能够有效吸附挥发酚,但高盐度不利于酚类化合物的吸附.
