Abstract
Polyoxometalates (POMs) are of great interest to the scientific community, and their reduction and nucleation have been well-established by multi-step techniques. The present study develops an electrochemical approach for simultaneous reduction and nucleation of polyoxometalate-containing solids. Herein we report crystal growth of reduced Preyssler polyoxotungstate-based (anionic formula [NaP5W30O110]14-) new crystalline solids made of Preyssler anions interlinked by Co2+ and Ni2+ ions. Crystal nucleation and in situ reduction were achieved at room temperature using a two silver wire electrode setup in various aqueous solutions under constant applied potentials. The POM material was deposited on the cathode, and its structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction techniques. The primary structure type observed involves POMs decorated by disordered Co2+/Ni2+ octahedra and fused into 1-D pillars by additional Co2+/Ni2+ octahedra. A secondary phase was observed in the Ni-based reactions, where reduced Preyssler anions are decorated by Ni4O4 cubane-like units. To understand the electrochemical process, polarization curves of the electrolyte solutions are presented, suggesting an applied potential best suited for crystal growth. The work highlights the effectiveness of an electrochemical pathway where nucleation and simultaneous reduction of POMs can make novel reduced POM solids.

Abstract
With the rapid development of the economy and the demands of people's lives, the usage amount of polymer materials is significantly increasing globally. Chlorobenzenes (CBS) are widely used in the industrial, agriculture and chemical industries, particularly as important chemical raw materials during polymers processes. CBS are difficult to remove due to their properties, such as being hydrophobic, volatile and persistent and biotoxic, and they have caused great harm to the ecological environment and human health. Electrochemical oxidation technology for the treatment of refractory pollutants has been widely used due to its high efficiency and easiness of operation. Thus, the electrochemical oxidation system was established for the efficient treatment of monochlorobenzene (MCB) waste gas. The effect of a single factor, such as anode materials, cathode materials, the electrolyte concentration, current density and electrode distance on the removal efficiency (RE) of MCB gas were first studied. The response-surface methodology (RSM) was used to investigate the relationships between different factors' conditions (current density, electrolyte concentration, electrode distance), and a prediction model was established using the Design-Expert 10.0.1 software to optimize the reaction conditions. The results of the one-factor experiments showed that when treating 2.90 g/m3 MCB gas with a 0.40 L/min flow rate, Ti/Ti4O7 as an anode, stainless steel wire mesh as a cathode, 0.15 mol/L NaCl electrolyte, 10.0 mA/cm2 current density and 4.0 cm electrode distance, the average removal efficiency (RE), efficiency capacity (EC) and energy consumption (Esp) were 57.99%, 20.18 g/(m3·h) and 190.2 (kW·h)/kg, respectively. The results of the RSM showed that the effects of the process parameters on the RE of MBC were as follows: current density > electrode distance > electrolyte concentration; the interactions effects on the RE of MBC were in the order of electrolyte concentration and current density > current density and electrode distance > electrolyte concentration and electrode distance; the optimal experimental conditions were as follows: the concentration of electrolyte was 0.149 mol/L, current density was 18.11 mA, electrode distance was 3.804 cm. Under these conditions, the RE achieved 66.43%. The response-surface variance analysis showed that the regression model reached a significant level, and the validation results were in agreement with the predicted results, which proved the feasibility of the model. The model can be applied to treat the CBS waste gas of polymer processes through electrochemical oxidation.

Functionalization of Shorea faguetiana biochar using Fe 2O 3 nanoparticles and MXene for rapid removal of methyl blue and lead from both single and binary systems. RSC Adv 2024; 14:3732-3747.

Abstract
The synthesis of polymeric magnetic composites is a promising strategy for the rapid and efficient treatment of wastewater. Lead and methyl blue are extremely hazardous to living organisms. The sorption of Pb2+ and the dye methyl blue (MB) by biochar is an ecologically sustainable method to remediate this type of water pollution. We functionalized Shorea faguetiana biochar with Fe2O3 and MXene, resulting in Fe2O3/BC/MXene composites with an efficient, rapid, and selective adsorption performance. Based on X-ray photoelectron and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, we found that the Fe2O3/BC/MXene composites had an increased number of surface functional groups (F-, C[double bond, length as m-dash]O, CN, NH, and OH-) compared with the original biochar. The batch sorption findings showed that the maximum sorption capacities for Pb2+ and MB at 293 K were 882.76 and 758.03 mg g-1, respectively. The sorption phenomena obeyed a pseudo-second-order (R2 = 1) model and the Langmuir isotherm. There was no competition between MB and Pb2+ in binary solutions, indicating that MB and Pb2+ did not influence each other as a result of their different adsorption mechanisms (electrostatic interaction for Pb2+ and hydrogen bonding for MB). This illustrates monolayer sorption on the Fe2O3/BC/MXene composite governed by chemical adsorption. Thermodynamic investigations indicated that the sorption process was spontaneous and exothermic at 293-313 K, suggesting that it is feasible for practical applications. Fe2O3/BC/MXene can selectively adsorb Pb2+ ions and MB from wastewater containing multiple interfering metal ions. The sorption capacities were still high after five reusability experiments. This work provides a novel Fe2O3/BC/MXene composite for the rapid and efficient removal of Pb2+ and MB.

Abstract
Cu and Ni complexes with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (Cu/Ni-EDTA), which are commonly present in metal plating industry wastewaters, pose a serious threat to both the environment and human health due to their high toxicity and low biodegradability. In this study, the treatment of solutions containing either or both Cu-EDTA and Ni-EDTA using an electrochemical process is investigated under both oxidizing and reducing electrolysis conditions. Our results indicate that Cu-EDTA is decomplexed as a result of the cathodic reduction of Cu(II) with subsequent electrodeposition of Cu(0) at the cathode when the cathode potential is more negative than the reduction potential of Cu-EDTA to Cu(0). In contrast, the very negative reduction potential of Ni-EDTA to Ni(0) renders the direct reduction of EDTA-complexed Ni(II) at the cathode unimportant. The removal of Ni during the electrolysis process mainly occurs via anodic oxidation of EDTA in Ni-EDTA, with the resulting formation of low-molecular-weight organic acids and the release of Ni2+, which is subsequently deposited as Ni0 on the cathode. A kinetic model incorporating the key reactions occurring in the electrolysis process has been developed, which satisfactorily describes EDTA, Cu, Ni, and TOC removal. Overall, this study improves our understanding of the mechanism of removal of heavy metals from solution during the electrochemical advanced oxidation of metal plating wastewaters.

Abstract
Chemical/electric energy-driven processes dominate the traditional precious metal (PM) recovery market. The renewable energy-driven selective PM recycling approach crucial for carbon neutrality is under exploration. Herein, via an interfacial structure engineering approach, coordinational-active pyridine groups are covalently integrated onto the photoactive semiconductor SnS2 surface to construct Py-SnS2. Triggered by the preferred coordinational binding force between PMs and pyridine groups, together with the photoreduction capability of SnS2, Py-SnS2 shows significantly enhanced selective PM-capturing performance toward Au3+, Pd4+, and Pt4+ with recycling capacity up to 1769.84, 1103.72, and 617.61 mg/g for Au3+, Pd4+, and Pt4+, respectively. Further integrating the Py-SnS2 membrane into a homemade light-driven flow cell, 96.3% recovery efficiency was achieved for continuous Au recycling from a computer processing unit (CPU) leachate. This study reported a novel strategy to fabricate coordinational bonds triggered photoreductive membranes for continuous PM recovery, which could be expanded to other photocatalysts for broad environmental applications.

Abstract
Electrification is a potential approach to decarbonizing the chemical industry. Electrochemical processes, when they are powered by renewable electricity, have lower carbon footprints in comparison to conventional thermochemical routes. In this Perspective, we discuss the potential electrochemical routes for chemical production and provide our views on how electrochemical processes can be matured in academic research laboratories for future industrial applications. We first analyze the CO2 emission in the manufacturing industry and conduct a survey of state of the art electrosynthesis methods in the three most emission-intensive areas: petrochemical production, nitrogen compound production, and metal smelting. Then, we identify the technical bottlenecks in electrifying chemical productions from both chemistry and engineering perspectives and propose potential strategies to tackle these issues. Finally, we provide our views on how electrochemical manufacturing can reduce carbon emissions in the chemical industry with the hope to inspire more research efforts in electrifying chemical manufacturing.

Abstract
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) washing has been used extensively to remediate heavy metal-contaminated soils. Electrochemical reduction treatment of spent washing solution is an effective method of EDTA regeneration. However, at present, these two technologies are usually regarded as two independent treatment processes. This research raised a new heavy metal-contaminated soil treatment strategy-a combination technique of coupled EDTA washing and electrochemical reduction. We speculated that the combination of EDTA washing and electroreduction treatment could improve the efficiency of Cd and Pb removal from contaminated soil. In this study, the removal performance and mechanisms of Cd and Pb under different current conditions were investigated based on a coupling of EDTA washing and electrochemical reduction. The combination technique can increase Cd and Pb removal efficiencies by 13.37-15.24% and 14.91-27.05%, respectively, compared with EDTA washing alone. Sequential extraction analysis showed that the reducible fraction improved metal removal efficiency. The percentage of metal removed increased with an increased current value and EDTA concentration. In addition, pulse current mode removed more Cd and Pb than continuous current, although the difference was not significant (p > 0.05). However, pulse current could effectively eliminate the cathodic hydrogen evolution reaction, resulting in a further heavy metal deposition at the cathode. The combination technique exhibited enhanced removal efficiency due to EDTA regeneration in the suspension and the cathodic reduction reaction. The most cost-effective treatment in 48 h was a pulse current mode of 32 min on/16 min off-32 mA-EDTA-10 mM, where 47.56% of Cd and 77.00% of Pb were removed from the soil with an electric energy consumption of 8.24 Wh.

Abstract
This study presents a kinetic determination of copper removal from a real jewelry industry wastewater, with removal reaching 82.49% at 37°C, using fast galvanic pulse electrochemical technique in a process lasting 115 min. In the temperature range from 20 to 40°C, the mathematical model of the pseudo-first-order irreversible rate equation, with a correlation coefficient of 0.99, described the process behaviour. In this same temperature range, the Arrhenius' equation described the system, in which the temperature increase favoured the reaction kinetics. The scanning electron microscope (SEM), with energy-dispersive X-ray detector (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results, and the mathematical model fitting at the temperatures of 10 and 50°C indicated the formation of copper oxide I.

Abstract
The intensive exploitation of resources on a global level has led to a progressive depletion of mineral reserves, which were proved to be insufficient to meet the high demand for high-technological devices. On the other hand, the continuous production of Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is causing serious environmental problems, due to the complex composition of WEEE, which makes the recycling and reuse particularly challenging. The average metal content of WEEE is estimated to be around 30% and varies depending on the manufacturing period and brand of production. It contains base metals and precious metals, such as gold and palladium. The remaining 70% of WEEEs is composed of plastics, resins, and glassy materials. The recovery of metals from WEEEs is characterized by two main processes well represented by the literature: Pyrometallurgy and hydrometallurgy. Both of them require the pre-treatment of WEEEs, such as dismantling and magnetic separation of plastics. In this work, the selective adsorption of precious metals has been attempted, using copper, gold, and palladium aqueous solutions and mixtures of them. A screening on different adsorbent materials such as granular activated carbons and polymers, either as pellets or foams, has been performed. Among these, PolyEther Block Amide (PEBA) was elected as the most performing adsorbent in terms of gold selectivity over copper. Spent PEBA has been then characterized using scanning electron microscope, coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy, demonstrating the predominant presence of gold in most analyzed sites, either in the pellet or foam form.

Abstract
Critical minerals are essential for the ever-increasing urban and industrial activities in modern society. The shift to cost-efficient and ecofriendly urban mining can be an avenue to replace the traditional linear flow of virgin-mined materials. Electrochemical separation technologies provide a sustainable approach to metal recovery, through possible integration with renewable energy, the minimization of external chemical input, as well as reducing secondary pollution. In this review, recent advances in electrochemically mediated technologies for metal recovery are discussed, with a focus on rare earth elements and other key critical materials for the modern circular economy. Given the extreme heterogeneity of hydrometallurgically-derived media of complex feedstocks, we focus on the nature of molecular selectivity in various electrochemically assisted recovery techniques. Finally, we provide a perspective on the challenges and opportunities for process intensification in critical materials recycling, especially through combining electrochemical and hydrometallurgical separation steps.

Performance of Graphite and Titanium as Cathode Electrode Materials on Poultry Slaughterhouse Wastewater Treatment. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 13:E4489. [PMID: 33050440 PMCID: PMC7601237 DOI: 10.3390/ma13204489] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2020] [Revised: 10/01/2020] [Accepted: 10/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Despite the potential applicability of the combination between aluminium (anode) and graphite or titanium (cathode) for poultry slaughterhouse wastewater treatment, their technical and economic feasibilities have not been comprehensively captured. In this study, aluminium (anode) and graphite and titanium as cathode electrode materials were investigated and compared in terms of their performance on poultry slaughterhouse wastewater treatment. The wastewater samples collected from the Izhevsk Production Corporative (PC) poultry farm in Kazakhstan were treated using a lab-based electrochemical treatment plant and then analyzed after every 20 and 40 min of the treatment processes. Cost analysis for both electrode combinations was also performed. From the analysis results, the aluminium-graphite electrode combination achieved high removal efficiency from turbidity, color, nitrite, phosphates, and chemical oxygen demand, with removal efficiency ranging from 72% to 98% after 20 min, as well as 88% to 100% after 40 min. A similar phenomenon was also observed from the aluminium-titanium electrode combination, with high removal efficiency achieved from turbidity, color, total suspended solids, nitrite, phosphates, and chemical oxygen demand, ranging from 81% to 100% after 20 min as well as from 91% to 100% after 40 min. This means the treatment performances for both aluminium-graphite and aluminium-titanium electrode combinations were highly affected by the contact time. The general performance in terms of removal efficiency indicates that the aluminium-titanium electrode combination outperformed the aluminium-graphite electrode combination. However, the inert character of the graphite electrode led to a positive impact on the total operating cost. Therefore, the aluminium-graphite electrode combination was observed to be cheaper than the aluminium-titanium electrode combination in terms of the operating cost.

Abstract
Waste fixer solutions generated from photographic processing are silver-rich effluents, in which silver exists in the form of a dithiosulfate complex ([Ag(S2O3)2]3-), a stable and water-soluble chemical compound. This study investigated the electrochemical reduction of [Ag(S2O3)2]3- at different initial concentrations for silver recovery, combined with electricity production in a two-chamber bio-electrochemical system using a cation exchange membrane as the separator. During the biological oxidation of acetate to produce electrons in the anode chamber, [Ag(S2O3)2]3- was reduced spontaneously by acting as an electron acceptor in the cathode chamber, despite its low standard redox potential ([Ag(S2O3)2]3-/Ag0, E 0 = 0.016 V). After 48 h in each batch of operation, a Ag recovery efficiency of 81.7-95.2%, with a columbic efficiency of 12.9-21.4% and a maximum power density of 1500-2647 mW/m3, were obtained with an initial [Ag(S2O3)2]3- concentration of 10-20 mM, respectively. When the initial [Ag(S2O3)2]3- concentration increased to 30 mM, cell voltage production did not improve significantly, and a small decrease in Ag recovery efficiency to 93.2% was found. After 61 days of operation, the cathode surface was covered by different-sized silver clusters under SEM observation. The results were confirmed by EDX and XRD characterization, in which metallic silver with high purity was detected. SEM-EDX-XRD characterization of the membrane and the measurements in the control reactor confirmed that there was no diffusion of negatively charged [Ag(S2O3)2]3- complex through the membrane. Thus, this study showed a successful recovery of Ag from the low-potential [Ag(S2O3)2]3- complex without energy consumption, secondary waste generation, and loss of Ag.

Abstract
A highly-efficient, autonomous electrochemical-osmotic system (EOS) is developed for simultaneous recovery of electric energy, water, and metals from wastewater. We demonstrate that the system can generate a maximum electric power density of 10.5 W m-2 using a spontaneous Fe/Cu2+ galvanic cell, while simultaneously achieving copper recovery from wastewater. With an osmotic pressure difference generated by the deployed electrochemical reactions, water is osmotically extracted from the feed solution with the EOS at a water flux of 5.1 L m-2 h-1. A scaled-up EOS realizes a power density of 105.8 W per m-3 of treated water to light an LED over 24 h while also enhancing water extraction and metal recovery. The modularized EOS obtains ultrahigh (>97.5%) Faradaic efficiencies under variable operating conditions, showing excellent system stability. The EOS is also versatile: it can recover Au, Ag, and Hg from wastewaters with simultaneous electricity and water coproduction. Our study demonstrates a promising pathway for realizing multiresource recycling from wastewater by coupling electrochemical and osmosis-driven processes.

Abstract
A simple, rapid, and environmentally friendly process using hydrogen peroxide, was developed for recovering high purity silver directly from industry and laboratory wastes. Silver ammine complex, [Ag(NH3)2]+Cl-, derived from AgCl were generated and then directly reduced using H2O2 to reliably turn into high purity microcrystalline silver (99.99%) examined by EDS and XRD. Morphology of the recovered silver microcrystals could be selectively tuned by an addition of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone). The main parameters in the recovering process including pH, concentration of Ag+ and the mole ratio of H2O2:Ag+ were carefully optimized though the central composite design (CCD). The optimized condition was employed for a trial recovery of 50 L silver ammine complex prepared from a collection of silver-wastes during 3-year research on industrial nanoparticle production. The recovered silver microcrystals >700 g could be recovered with 91.27%. The remaining solution after filtering of the recovered silver microcrystals can be used repeatedly (at least 8 cycles) without losing recovery efficiency. Matrix interferences including Pb2+ and Cl- play a minimal role in our silver recovery process. Furthermore, the direct usage of the recovered silver microcrystals was demonstrated by using as a raw material of silver clay for creating a set of wearable silver jewelries.

Abstract
AbstractHeavy metal-laden water and wastewater pose a threat to biodiversity, including human health. Contaminated wastewater can be treated with several separation and purification methods. Among them, electrochemical treatment is a notable clean technology, versatile and environmentally compatible for the removal and recovery of inorganic pollutants from water and wastewater. Electrochemical technology provides solution for the recovery of metals in their most valuable state. This paper analyses the most recent electrochemical approaches for the removal and recovery of metal ions. Various current works involving cell design and electrode development were addressed in distinguished electrochemical processes, namely, electrodeposition, electrocoagulation, electroflotation, and electrosorption. Cathodic reduction of metal ions has been proven in result to metal deposit on the metal, metal oxide, stainless steel, and graphite electrode. However, little progress has been made toward electrode modification, particularly the cathode for the purpose of cathodic reduction and deposition. Meanwhile, emerging advanced materials, such as ionic liquids, have been presented to be prominent to the technological advancement of electrode modifications. It has been projected that by integrating different priorities into the design approach for electrochemical reactors and recent electrode developments, several insights can be obtained that will contribute toward the enhancement of the electrochemical process performance for the effective removal and recovery of heavy metals from water and wastewater in the near future.

Abstract
A variety of multidimensional anthropogenic activities, especially of industrial level, are contaminating our aquatic and terrestrial environments with a variety of metallic and non-metallic pollutants. The metallic and non-metallic pollutants addressed specifically in this review are heavy metals and various compound forms of sulfates, respectively. Direct and indirect deleterious effects of the both types of pollutants to all forms of life are well-known. The treatment of such pollutants is therefore much necessary before their final discharge into the environment. This review summarizes the productive utility of sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) for economical and concomitant treatment of the above mentioned wastes. Utilization of agro-industrial wastes and some environmental contaminants including hydrocarbons, as economical growth substrates for SRB, is also suggested and proved efficient in this review. Mechanistically, SRB will utilize sulfates as their terminal electron acceptors during respiration while utilizing agro-industrial and/or hydrocarbon wastes as electron donors/carbon sources and generate H2S. The biogenic H2S will then react vigorously with dissolved metals present in the wastewaters thus forming metal sulfide. The metal sulfide being water insoluble and heavier than water will settle down in the water as precipitates. In this way, three types of pollutants i.e., metals, sulfates and agro-industrial and/or hydrocarbon wastes will be treated simultaneously.

Abstract
A photoelectrocatalytic system for removal of ofloxacin and Cu(2+) complex was developed. In such a photoelectrocatalytic system, highly ordered titanium dioxide nanotubes served as a highly active photoanode for photoelectrocatalytic degradation of ofloxacin; and titanium plate was used as the cathode, on which Cu(2+) ions were electrodeposited. Compared with other treatment methods including photocatalysis, electrochemistry and direct photolysis, photoelectrocatalytic technique exhibited the highest removal efficiency for either ofloxacin or Cu(2+). To obtain the optimum photoelectrocatalytic operation conditions, some influencing factors such as current, pH and supporting electrolyte concentration were investigated systematically. The mutual influence analysis indicated that the photoelectrocatalytic removal efficiency of ofloxacin was first promoted by Cu(2+) but was then suppressed with prolonging the treatment time; whereas the removal of Cu(2+) was always promoted by ofloxacin over the whole photoelectrocatalytic treatment process. Furthermore, the photoelectrocatalytic removal of ofloxacin -Cu(2+) was studied by differential pulse voltammetry and high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The results indicated that although Cu(2+) influenced the removal rate of ofloxacin, it did not change the degradation mechanism of ofloxacin. The formation of an electroactive intermediate product during the photoelectrocatalytic process was clearly observed by voltammetric analysis. Based on intermediate products identified by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, a possible photoelectrocatalytic removal mechanism for ofloxacin -Cu(2+) was proposed.

Abstract
This research is related to a laboratory study on the performance of a successive mining residues leaching and electrochemical copper recovery process. To clearly define the experimental region for response surface methodology (RSM), a preliminary study was performed by applying a current intensity varying from 0.5 A to 4.0 A for 60 min. By decreasing the current intensity from 4.0 A to 0.5 A, a good adhesion and a very smooth and continuous interface of copper was formed and deposited on the cathode electrode. However, the removal rate of Cu decreased from 83.7% to 37.9% when the current intensity passed from 4.0 A to 0.5 A, respectively. Subsequently, the factorial design and central composite design methodologies were successively employed to define the optimal operating conditions for copper removal in the mining residues leachate. Using a 2(3) factorial matrix, the best performance for copper removal (97.7%) was obtained at a current intensity of 2.0 A during 100 min. The current intensity and electrolysis time were found to be the most influent parameters. The contribution of current intensity and electrolysis time was around 65.8% and 33.9%, respectively. The treatment using copper electrode and current intensity of 1.3 A during 80 min was found to be the optimal conditions in terms of cost/effectiveness. Under these conditions, 86% of copper can be recovered for a total cost of 0.56 $ per cubic meter of treated mining residues leachate.

Abstract
The simultaneous decomplexation of Cu-EDTA and electrodeposition recovery of Cu(2+) ions was attempted in a photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) system using TiO2/Ti as the anode and stainless steel as the cathode. At a current density of 0.5 mA/cm(2), removal efficiencies of 0.05 mM Cu-EDTA by photocatalysis, electrooxidation, and PEC processes were determined to be 15, 43, and 72% at 3 h, respectively. Recovery percentages of Cu(2+) ions were determined to be 10, 33, and 67%, respectively. These results indicated that a synergetic effect in the decomplexation of Cu-EDTA and recovery of Cu(2+) ions occurred in the PEC process, which favored acid conditions and increased with the current densities. The removal of Cu-EDTA and Cu(2+) ions can be described by a pseudo-first-order kinetics model. Ca(2+) ions significantly increase the removal of Cu-EDTA and recovery of Cu(2+) ions. Intermediates, including Cu-NTA, Cu-EDDA, acetic acid, formic acid, and oxalic acid, were identified, and a decomplexation pathway of Cu-EDTA was proposed. The Cu-EDTA decomplexation at the anode via oxidation of hydroxyl radicals was revealed. On the basis of X-ray photoelectron spectra analysis, a reduction pathway of Cu(2+) ions at the cathode was discussed. The present study may provide a promising alternative for destruction of the metal complex and recovery of metal ions.

Abstract
The cathodic reduction of complex-state copper(II) was investigated in a dual chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC). The inner resistance of MFC system could be reduced in the presence of ionizing NH(4)(+), however, mass transfer was hindered at higher ammonia concentration. Thermodynamic and electrochemical analyses indicated that the processes of complex dissociation and copper reduction were governed by the ratio of T[Cu]:T[NH(3)] and the pH of solution. The reduction of Cu(NH(3))(4)(2+) could be achieved via two possible pathways: (1) releasing Cu(2+) from Cu(NH(3))(4)(2+), then reducing Cu(2+) to Cu or Cu(2)O and (2) Cu(NH(3))(4)(2+) accepting an electron and forming Cu(NH(3))(2)(+), and depositing as Cu or Cu(2)O consequently. At initial concentration of 350 mg T[Cu] L(-1), copper removal efficiency of 96% was obtained at pH=9.0 within 12 h (with △Cu/△COD=1.24), 84% was obtained at pH=3.0 within 8 h (with △Cu/△COD=1.72). Cu(NH(3))(4)(2+) was reduced as polyhedral deposits on the cathode.

Abstract
An emulsion liquid membrane (ELM)-crystallization process, using hypophosphorous acid as a reducing agent in the internal aqueous phase, has been developed for the purpose of recovering high-purity silver directly from dilute industrial effluents (waste rinse water). After pretreatment with HNO(3), silver in waste rinse water can be reliably recovered with high efficiency through the established process. The main parameters in the process of ELM-crystallization include the concentration of carrier in the membrane phase, the concentration of reducing agent in the internal aqueous phase, and the treatment ratio, which influence the recovery efficiency to various extents and must be controlled carefully. The results indicated that more than 99.5% (wt.) of the silver ions in the external aqueous phase were extracted by the ELM-crystallization process, with an average efficiency of recovery of 99.24% (wt.) and a purity of 99.92% (wt.). The membrane phase can be used repeatedly without loss of the efficiency of recovery.

Abstract
In the Ag(II)/Ag(I) based mediated electrochemical oxidation (MEO) process, the spent waste from the electrochemical cell, which is integrated with the scrubber columns, contains high concentrations of precious silver as dissolved ions in both the anolyte and the catholyte. This work presents an electrochemical developmental study for the recovery of silver from simulated waste water from Ag(II)/Ag(I) based MEO process. Galvanostatic method of silver deposition on Ti cathode in an undivided cell was used, and the silver recovery rate kinetics of silver deposition was followed. Various experimental parameters, which have a direct bearing on the metal recovery efficiency, were optimized. These included studies with the nitric acid concentration (0.75-6M), the solution stirring rate (0-1400 rpm), the inter-electrode distance between the anode and the cathode (2-8 cm), the applied current density (29.4-88.2 mA cm(-2)), and the initial Ag(I) ion concentration (0.01-0.2M). The silver recovered by the present electrodeposition method was re-dissolved in 6M nitric acid and subjected to electrooxidation of Ag(I) to Ag(II) to ascertain its activity towards Ag(II) electrogeneration from Ag(I), which is a key factor for the efficient working of MEO process. Our studies showed that the silver metal recovered by the present electrochemical deposition method could be reused repeatedly for MEO process with no loss in its electrochemical activity. Some work on silver deposition from sulfuric acid solution of different concentrations was also done because of its promising features as the catholyte in the Ag(II) generating electrochemical cell used in MEO process, which include: (i) complete elimination of poisonous NO(x) gas liberation in the cathode compartment, (ii) reduced Ag(+) ion migration across Nafion membrane from anolyte to catholyte thereby diminished catholyte contamination, and (iii) lower cell voltage and hence lesser power consumption.
