Abstract
Anthraquinone is a redox mediator that can effectively catalyze the degradation of azo dyes by promoting the electron transfer. In this study, a mediator membrane with poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) as the membrane support and 1,8-dichloroanthraquinone (1,8-AQ) and graphene oxide (GO) as the additives was prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and water contact angle. The introduction of GO increases the pure water flux of the membrane to 258.56±12.93 L/(m2·h). Its catalytic performances for the biodegradation of azo dyes were evaluated. Under the optimized conditions, the 1,8-AQ/GO/PVDF composite membrane is able to improve the dye degradation efficiency 2.2 times for reactive red X-3B and 1.1 times for acid red B, as compared with PVDF membrane. In addition, the mediator membrane maintains stable and high catalytic efficiency in the cyclic test and over 90 % dye degradation efficiency is still obtained after 5 cycles of decolorization. These results suggest the great application potentials of the 1,8-AQ/GO/PVDF membrane in the dye wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Efficient removal of dyes in the wastewater of dyeing and printing industries is challenging, especially the anionic dyes with strong stability, serious environmental pollution, and difficult degradation. In the present work, a novel cationic adsorbent was synthesized through the quaternization of 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTA) onto microcrystalline cellulose and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, specific surface and pore size analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. Acid Yellow 128 (AY-128) and Acid Red 1 (AR-1) were selected to investigate their adsorption on quaternized microcrystalline cellulose (QMCC). The experimental adsorption results indicated that (1) the adsorption kinetics of AY-128 and AR-1 on QMCC could be consistent with the pseudo-second-order and Freundlich models, respectively; (2) the adsorption process was spontaneous and feasibly endothermic. The removal efficiency of AY-128 and AR-1 was up to 99 and 95%, respectively. After five times of reuse, the removal efficiency of AY-128 and AR-1 was still 97 and 95%. In conclusion, quaternized microcrystalline cellulose was a promising adsorbent for AY-128 and AR-1.

Abstract
Dye recovery is of great significance for a circular economy and sustainable development. However, green recovery strategies without secondary pollution remain a significant challenge. To resolve this issue, a light-responsive smart material (citric acid-modified BiOCOOH (m-BOCH)) was synthesized and applied for dye recovery through adsorption in the dark, and desorption under visible light. With the modification of citric acid, the adsorption level of methylene blue (MB) on m-BOCH (43.4%) was more than six times that of pure BiOCOOH (7.1%). The desorption rate was ∼90% in 120 min under 420 nm light irradiation (there was no desorption for pure BOCH). Further, the adsorption rate was improved to 83.9% and the desorption rate remained stable at an optimal pH of 10.09. Characterization results indicated that carboxyl groups were modified onto the surface of BiOCOOH and served as adsorption sites for MB. Under visible light exposure, the connections between the carboxyl groups and BiOCOOH were damaged, which led to the desorption of MB from the surface of the m-BOCH. The recovered MB exhibited a good staining effect on hepatic stellate cells (HSC) as a fresh dye. The regeneration of m-BOCH was achieved through a moderate hydrothermal process, and the adsorption and desorption capacities were restored to 80.8% and 85.7%, respectively. This research provides a novel environmentally compatible strategy for dye recovery without secondary pollution. This is a very promising treatment technique for dye effluents, which highlights the application of smart materials resource recycling for environmental remediation.

Abstract
Deep desulfurization of alkylated oil is the primary problem that has long plagued the petroleum refining industry. In this study, alkaline alumina adsorbent microspheres were synthesized by carbonization - hot oil column pelletization method. The adsorption desulfurization performance of as-synthesized adsorbent and three commercial alumina-based adsorbents were systematically evaluated and compared. The results showed that alkaline alumina adsorbent had the optimal adsorption performance with a saturated adsorption capacity of 8.604 mg·g<sup>-1</sup>. Meanwhile, FTIR and sulfur speciation analysis indicated that the alkaline alumina adsorbent could deeply remove various sulfides (methyl mercaptan, dimethyl disulfide, hexacarbon sulfide, dibenzothiophene, <i>etc.</i>) from alkylated oil. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics study manifested that the adsorption of sulfide was dominated by chemical adsorption, supplemented by physical adsorption, and accompanied by competitive adsorption among different sulfides. In addition, the regeneration experiment showed that nitrogen (90 °C) could realize the stable regeneration of the alkaline alumina adsorbent. To ensure stable regeneration performance in industry, it is recommended that the alkaline alumina adsorbent be regenerated once with nitrogen at 90 °C. This study will provide theoretical support for the process optimization of deep desulfurization of alkylated oil and contribute to the high-quality production of clean fuels worldwide.

Abstract
The design and synthesis of amphiphilic molecules play a crucial role in fabricating smart functional materials via self-assembly. Especially, biologically significant natural molecules and their structural analogues have inspired chemists and made a major contribution to the development of advanced smart materials. In this report, a series of amphiphilic N-acyl amides were synthesized from natural precursors using a simple synthetic protocol. Interestingly, the self-assembly of amphiphiles 6a and 7a furnished a hydrogel and oleogel in vegetable oils. Morphological analysis of gels revealed the existence of a 3-dimensional fibrous network. Thermoresponsive and thixotropic behavior of these gels were evaluated using rheological analysis. A composite gel prepared by the encapsulation of curcumin in the hydrogel formed from 7a displayed a gel–sol transition in response to pH and could act as a dual channel responsive drug carrier. The design and synthesis of amphiphilic molecules play a crucial role in fabricating smart functional materials via self-assembly.![]()

Abstract
The usually inconvenient detection and uneasy recycling of polydopamine (PDA) with sphere morphology as an adsorbent restrict its actual applications in wastewater purification. Thus, novel composite fibers were fabricated via the electrospinning technique by integrating polydopamine microspheres (PDA-MPs) with pH/temperature dual-responsive copolymers. The insoluble fraction of the fabricated composite fibers can be maintained to a value above 89% after being immersed in aqueous solutions with different pH values. Also, the regeneration efficiency of the composite fibers can also remain above 80% after undergoing five adsorption-desorption cycles. These results both indicated that the fabricated composite fibers can avoid secondary pollution during the adsorption process effectively. In addition, the presence of abundant N-isopropyl acrylamide (NIPAM) units within the fibers could make it have a relatively higher water swelling ability of 4643%, which could further offer relatively larger inner spaces to accommodate the dye molecules. Meanwhile, by incorporating β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), methacrylic acid (MAA), PDA, and NIPAM components, plentiful active adsorption sites could be supplied to interact with methylene blue (MB) dye. So, the adsorption experiments of the composite fibers showed a maximum adsorption capacity of 1722.1 mg/g at pH 9.0 and a temperature of 55 °C. Furthermore, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model of adsorption suggested that it is a chemisorption process. Moreover, the adsorption experimental data can be better described by Langmuir models, inferring its monolayer adsorption. The adsorption thermodynamic studies revealed that adsorption is a spontaneous and endothermic process. Also, the increase of temperature facilitated the adsorption processes, owing to the increase of adsorbent's hydrophobicity and molecules' reactivity. The present work suggested that the combination of smart-responsive polymers and PDA-MPs could form an unprecedented system to be a promising candidate adsorbent for wastewater treatment.

Adsorption and Separation of Crystal Violet, Cerium(III) and Lead(II) by Means of a Multi-Step Strategy Based on K10-Montmorillonite. MINERALS 2020.

Abstract
A multi-step procedure, based on the employment of K10-Montmorillonite, is proposed for the selective removal of metal ions and dyes from a multicomponent solution. The objective is twofold: decontaminate the effluents and separate and recover the valuable byproducts present in wastewaters. Three common contaminants, i.e., crystal violet dye (CV), Ce(III) and Pb(II) were chosen as “model” pollutants. The main factors affecting the pollutants’ sorption were investigated. The experimental data were correlated with adsorption isotherms and kinetic models to obtain a deeper insight into the adsorption processes. The affinity of the clay toward the pollutants is favored by an increasing pH and follows the order CV > Pb(II) > Ce(III). Whereas Ce(III) metal ions do not adsorb onto clay under strongly acidic conditions, both Pb(II) and CV can adsorb under all the investigated pH conditions. The analysis of isotherms and kinetic profiles revealed that CV adsorbs onto clay through a mechanism consisting of two parallel processes, namely cation exchange on the external mineral surface and in the interlayer and surface complexation at the edge sites, while metal ion uptake is due solely to cation exchange processes involving mineral surfaces. The time required for the complete removal of pollutants follows the order CV > Ce(III) >> Pb(II). The possibility to modulate the adsorption features by changing experimental conditions was successfully employed to propose the best strategy for the progressive removal of different components from aqueous solutions.
