Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) macroscopic aerogels have emerged as a critical component in the realm of photocatalysis. Maximizing the integration of materials can result in enhanced efficiency and selectivity in photocatalytic processes. In this investigation, we fabricated MOF-808/reduced graphene oxide (RGO) 3D macroscopic aerogel composite materials employing the techniques of hydrothermal synthesis and freeze-drying. The results revealed that the macroscopic aerogel material exhibited the highest performance in CO2 reduction to CO, particularly when the concentration of RGO was maintained at 5 mg mL-1. In addition, we synthesized powder materials of MR-5 composite photocatalysts and conducted a comparative analysis in terms of photocatalytic CO2 reduction performance and electron transfer efficiency. The results showthat the macroscopic aerogel material boasts a high specific surface area, an abundant internal pore structure, and increased active sites. These attributes collectively enhance light energy utilization, and electron transfer rates, thereby, improving photothermal and photoelectric conversion efficiencies. Furthermore, we conducted in-situ FT-IR measurements and found that the M/R-5 aerogel exhibited the best CO2 adsorption capacity under a CO2 flow rate of 10 mL min-1. The density functional theory results demonstrate the correlation between the formation pathway of the product and the charge transfer pathway. This study provides useful ideas for realizing photocatalytic CO2 reduction of macroscopic aerogel materials in gas-solid reaction mode.

Sharma SK, Ranjani P, Mamane H, Kumar R. Preparation of graphene oxide-doped silica aerogel using supercritical method for efficient removal of emerging pollutants from wastewater. Sci Rep 2023; 13:16448. [PMID: 37777623 PMCID: PMC10542781 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-43613-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Emerging pollutants and a large volume of unused dyes from the textile industry have been contaminating water bodies. This work introduces a scalable approach to purifying water by the adsorption of Acid green 25 (AG), Crystal Violet (CV), and Sulfamethoxazole (SMA) from an aqueous solution by graphene oxide (GO) doped modified silica aerogel (GO-SA) with supercritical fluid deposition (SFD) method. Characterization of GO-SA using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (HR-SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) adsorption isotherms revealed the improvement in the adsorbent surface area, and its textural properties. The high removal percentages observed in most of the experimental runs provide evidence of the excellent performance of the adsorbent towards the anionic and cationic dyes along with the antibiotic. The adsorption isotherm and kinetics showed that the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models could explain adsorption. The adsorbent holds a higher adsorption capacity for SMA (67.07 mg g-1) than for CV (41.46 mg g-1) and AG (20.56 mg g-1) due to the higher hydrophobicity that interacts with the hydrophobic adsorbent. The GO-SA successfully removed AG, CV, and SMA with removal percentages of 98.23%, 98.71%, and 94.46%, respectively. The parameters were optimized using Central Composite Design (RSM-CCD). The prepared aerogel showed excellent reusability with a removal efficiency of > 85% even after 5 cycles. This study shows the potential of GO-SA adsorbent in textile and other wastewater purification.

Abstract
The wastewater generated from the semiconductor production process contains a wide range and a large number of harmful substances at high concentrations. Excessive exposure to fluoride can lead to life-threatening effects such as skin necrosis and respiratory damage. Accordingly, a guideline value of fluoride ions in drinking water was 1.5 mg L-1 recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) has the characteristics of excellent chemical and thermal stability. Boehmite (AlOOH) is a mineral and has been widely used as an adsorbent due to its high surface area and strong adsorption capacity for fluoride ions. It can be densely coated on negatively charged surfaces through electrostatic interaction due to its positively charged surface. In this study, a composite membrane was fabricated by a simple and economical dip coating of a commercial melamine sponge (MS) with PVDF and boehmite to remove fluoride ions from semiconductor wastewater. The prepared MS-PVDF-Boehmite composite membrane showed a high removal efficiency for fluoride ions in both incubation and filtration. By the incubation process, the removal efficiency of fluoride ions was 55% within 10 min and reached 80% after 24 h. In the case of filtration, the removal efficiency was 95.5% by 4 cycles of filtering with a flow rate of 70 mL h-1. In addition, the removal mechanism of fluoride ions on MS-PVDF-Boehmite was also explored by using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms and kinetic analysis. (R2-1) From the physical, chemical, thermal, morphological, and mechanical analyses of present materials, this study provides an MS-PVDF-Boehmite composite filter material that is suitable for fluoride removal applications due to its simple fabrication process, cost-effectiveness, and high performance.

Abstract
In order to advance desulfurization technology, a new method for excellent oxidative desulfurization of fuel at room temperature will be of paramount importance. As a novel desulfurization method, we developed piezo-catalysts that do not require adding any oxidants and can be performed at room temperature. A microwave method was used to prepare CeO2/Ce2O3/NiOx nanocomposites. Model and real fuel desulfurization rates were examined as a function of synthesis parameters, such as microwave power and time, and operation conditions, such as pH and ultrasonic power. The results showed that CeO2/Ce2O3/NiOx nanocomposites demonstrated outstanding piezo-desulfurization at room temperature for both model and real fuels. Furthermore, CeO2/Ce2O3/NiOx nanocomposites exhibited remarkable reusability, maintaining 79% of their piezo-catalytic activity even after 17 repetitions for desulfurization of real fuel. An investigation of the mechanism of sulfur oxidation revealed that superoxide radicals and holes played a major role. Additionally, the kinetic study revealed that sulfur removal by piezo-catalyst follows a second-order reaction kinetic model.

Facile synthesis of triazine-based microporous organic network for high-efficient adsorption of flumequine and nadifloxacin: A comprehensive study on adsorption mechanisms and practical application potentials. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 315:137731. [PMID: 36608878 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.137731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 12/31/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Flumequine (FLU) and nadifloxacin (NAD), as emerging contaminants, have received extensive attention recently. In this study, a triazine-based microporous organic network (TMON) was synthetized and developed as an excellent adsorbent for FLU and NAD. The adsorption behavior and influence factors were investigated in both single and binary systems. Insight into the adsorption mechanisms were conducted through experiments, models, and computational studies, from macro and micro perspectives including functional groups, adsorption sites, adsorption energy and frontier molecular orbital. The results showed that the maximum adsorption capacities of TMON for FLU and NAD are 325.27 and 302.28 mg/g under 30 °C higher than records reported before. TMON exhibits the better adaptability and anti-interference ability for influence factors, leading to the preferable application effect in kinds of real water samples. TMON also shows the application potentials for the adsorption of other quinolone antibiotics and CO2 capture. Hydrogen-bonding interaction played the most critical role compared to π-π stacking effect, π-π electron-donor-acceptor interaction, CH-π interaction, and hydrophobic interaction during the adsorption. TMON could be regarded as a promising environmental adsorbent for its large surface area, stable physical and chemical properties, excellent recyclability, and wide range of applications.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 435:129004.

Abstract
Fabrication of adsorbents with excellent adsorption capacity, outstanding stability, easy separation ability, excellent recyclability and widely generality for organic dyes removal from wastewater remains challenging. Herein, three-dimensional polyaniline/poly(vinyl alcohol)/montmorillonite (PANI/PVAL/MMT) hybrid aerogels with easy separation performance and highly effective reusable adsorption on both anionic and cationic dyes were fabricated by a simple in-situ polymerization method. As-prepared hybrid aerogels were characterized via infrared and Raman spectra, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectra mapping, small and wide-angle X-ray scattering, thermogravimetric analysis, mercury intrusion porosimetry and elemental analysis. The results showed that MMT particles were successfully incorporated into aerogel matrix. Well-defined hierarchical structure, where PANI nanofibers are coated on the skeleton wall, can be observed for PANI/PVAL/MMT when the incorporation amount of MMT was around 11.1 wt%. The adsorption performance of as-prepared hybrid aerogels on both anionic and cationic dyes was systemically carried out at different solution pH, adsorbent dosage and initial dye concentration. The data analysis showed that the adsorption process for PVAL/PANI/MMT aerogel for Reactive Black 5, methyl orange and safranin followed Freundlich isotherm and the maximum experimental adsorption capacities were found to be 199, 251 and 57.0 mg g-1 at 25 °C, respectively. Mechanism studies indicated that the electrostatic interaction is the main driving force for the adsorption of dyes. The results demonstrated that the fabricated hybrid aerogel is an efficient adsorbent for the removal of both anionic and cationic organic dyes.

Abstract
In this paper, the modified attapulgite-reduced graphene oxide composite aerogel (ATP-RGO CA) was prepared by sol-gel method using modified attapulgite as silica source. The removal of the cationic dye malachite green (MG) and azo dye methyl orange (MO) onto ATP-RGO CA from unitary and binary systems was investigated. Morphology and microstructure studies of ATP-RGO CA were investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and specific surface area and porosity analysis. Experiments were carried out as a function of pH, contact time, initial dye concentration, and temperature in unitary and binary systems. The adsorption kinetics, isotherms, thermodynamics, and dye desorption were studied in unitary and binary dye systems. The adsorption kinetics was modeled using the pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion kinetics equations. The equilibrium adsorption data of MG and MO dyes on ATP-RGO CA were analyzed. Thermodynamic parameters of dye adsorption were obtained. In addition, the regeneration of ATP-RGO CA was studied using dye desorption in unitary and binary dye systems. The adsorption kinetics of the dyes followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. The results indicate that the Langmuir model provides the best correlation of the experimental data. The thermodynamic studies showed that the dye adsorption onto ATP-RGO CA was a spontaneous and endothermic reaction. High desorption of MG and MO showed the regeneration of ATP-RGO CA. It can be concluded that ATP-RGO CA is suitable as an adsorbent material to remove MG and MO dyes from unitary and binary systems.

Abstract
In this work, polyacrylamide (PAM) was first used in the loading of heteropoly acids, and then the HPM/PAM-n catalyst was synthesized by simple reaction. The FTIR and SEM measurements showed that the HPM/PAM-n (n = 10,000, 20,000, 30,000) was successfully synthesized. In addition, the HPM/PAM-n effect on desulfurization was measured, which showed the optimal desulfurization efficiency. The optimal process condition for HPM/PAM-10000 desulfurization was optimized by a single-factor experiment. The optimal condition was as follows: The temperature was 60 °C, the amount of the catalyst was 0.2 g, the oxygen to sulfur ratio was 16, and the reaction time is 100 min. The catalyst was suitable for recycled use, and the desulfurization efficiency was high after 10 times. In the end, the oxidative desulfurization mechanism was put forward.
