Nanoporous Fe-Based Alloy Prepared by Selective Dissolution: An Effective Fenton Catalyst for Water Remediation.

ABSTRACT: A fully nanoporous Fe-rich alloy, prepared by selective dissolution of melt-spun Fe_43.5Cu_56.5 ribbons, exhibits outstanding properties as a heterogeneous Fenton catalyst toward the degradation of methyl orange (MO) in aqueous solution. In addition, the ferromagnetic characteristics of this material enable its wireless manipulation toward specific locations within polluted wastewater. The influence of selective dissolution on the microstructure, sample morphology (surface and cross-section), elemental composition, and magnetic properties of the resulting nanoporous alloy is investigated. The dealloying procedure enhances the saturation magnetization and drastically increases the catalytic performance (i.e., the time required for full degradation of MO from the medium is reduced by a factor of approximately 2 by subjecting the Fe_43.5Cu_56.5 ribbons to prior dealloying). Remarkably, the effectiveness of this nanoporous material surpasses the results obtained by the homogeneous Fenton reaction using an equivalent concentration of Fe cations leached into the media from the nanoporous alloy. The different factors that promote the high catalytic activity are discussed. The outstanding catalytic activity, together with the simplicity of the synthetic procedure, makes this material very appealing for water remediation using advanced Fenton processes.

Lindqvist@Nanoporous MOF-Based Catalyst for Effective Desulfurization of Fuels.

Project description:An effective and sustainable oxidative desulfurization process for treating a multicomponent model fuel was successfully developed using as a heterogeneous catalyst a composite material containing as an active center the europium Lindqvist [Eu(W5O18)2]9- (abbreviated as EuW10) encapsulated into the nanoporous ZIF-8 (zeolitic imidazolate framework) support. The EuW10@ZIF-8 composite was obtained through an impregnation procedure, and its successful preparation was confirmed by various characterization techniques (FT-IR, XRD, SEM/EDS, ICP-OES). The catalytic activity of the composite and the isolated EuW10 was evaluated in the desulfurization of a multicomponent model fuel containing dibenzothiophene derivatives (DBT, 4-MDBT and 4,6-DMDBT) with a total sulfur concentration of 1500 ppm. Oxidative desulfurization was performed using an ionic liquid as extraction solvent and aqueous hydrogen peroxide as oxidant. The catalytic results showed a remarkable desulfurization performance, with 99.5 and 94.7% sulfur removal in the first 180 min, for the homogeneous active center EuW10 and the heterogeneous EuW10@ZIF-8 catalysts, respectively. Furthermore, the stability of the nanocomposite catalyst was investigated by reusing and recycling processes. A superior retention of catalyst activity in consecutive desulfurization cycles was observed in the recycling studies when compared with the reusing experiments. Nevertheless, the nanostructure of ZIF-8 incorporating the active POM (polyoxometalate) was shown to be highly suitable for guaranteeing the absence of POM leaching, although structural modification was found for ZIF-8 after catalytic use that did not influenced catalytic performance.

Nanoporous Films and Nanostructure Arrays Created by Selective Dissolution of Water-Soluble Materials.

Project description:Highly porous thin films and nanostructure arrays are created by a simple process of selective dissolution of a water-soluble material, Sr3Al2O6. Heteroepitaxial nanocomposite films with self-separated phases of a target material and Sr3Al2O6 are first prepared by physical vapor deposition. NiO, ZnO, and Ni1- x Mg x O are used as the target materials. Only the Sr3Al2O6 phase in each nanocomposite film is selectively dissolved by dipping the film in water for 30 s at room temperature. This gentle and fast method minimizes damage to the remaining target materials and side reactions that can generate impurity phases. The morphologies and dimensions of the pores and nanostructures are controlled by the relative wettability of the separated phases on the growth substrates. The supercapacitor properties of the porous NiO films are enhanced compared to plain NiO films. The method can also be used to prepare porous films or nanostructure arrays of other oxides, metals, chalcogenides, and nitrides, as well as films or nanostructures with single-crystalline, polycrystalline, or amorphous nature.

Degradation of Tetracycline Hydrochloride by Cu-Doped MIL-101(Fe) Loaded Diatomite Heterogeneous Fenton Catalyst.

Project description:In this work, the combination of high surface area diatomite with Fe and Cu bimetallic MOF material catalysts (Fe0.25Cu0.75(BDC)@DE) were synthesized by traditional solvothermal method, and exhibited efficient degradation performance to tetracycline hydrochloride (TC). The degradation results showed: Within 120 min, about 93% of TC was degraded under the optimal conditions. From the physical-chemical characterization, it can be seen that Fe and Cu play crucial roles in the reduction of Fe3+ because of their synergistic effect. The synergistic effect can not only increase the generation of hydroxyl radicals (•OH), but also improve the degradation efficiency of TC. The Lewis acid property of Cu achieved the pH range of reaction system has been expanded, and it made the material degrade well under both neutral and acidic conditions. Loading into diatomite can reduce agglomeration and metal ion leaching, thus the novel catalysts exhibited low metal ion leaching. This catalyst has good structural stability, and less loss of performance after five reaction cycles, and the degradation efficiency of the material still reached 81.8%. High performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to analyze the degradation intermediates of TC, it provided a deep insight of the mechanism and degradation pathway of TC by bimetallic MOFs. This allows us to gain a deeper understanding of the catalytic mechanism and degradation pathway of TC degradation by bimetallic MOFS catalysts. This work has not only achieved important progress in developing high-performance catalysts for TC degradation, but has also provided useful information for the development of MOF-based catalysts for rapid environmental remediation.

Fe-Immobilised Catechol-Based Hypercrosslinked Polymer as Heterogeneous Fenton Catalyst for Degradation of Methylene Blue in Water.

Project description:Clean water is one of the sustainable development goals. Organic dye is one of the water pollutants affecting water quality. Hence, the conversion of dyes to safer species is crucial for water treatment. The Fenton reaction using Fe as a catalyst is a promising process. However, homogeneous catalysts are normally sensitive, difficult to separate, and burdensome to reuse. Therefore, a catechol-based hypercrosslinked polymer (catechol-HCP) was developed as an inexpensive solid support for Fe (catechol-HCP-Fe) and applied as a heterogenous Fenton catalyst. The good interaction of the catechol moiety with Fe, as well as the porous structure, simple preparation, low cost, and high stability of catechol-HCP, make it beneficial for Fe-loading in the polymer and Fenton reaction utilisation. The catechol-HCP-Fe demonstrated good catalytic activity for methylene blue (MB) degradation in a neutral pH. Complete decolouration of 100 ppm MB could be observed within 25 min. The rate of reaction was influenced by H2O2 concentration, polymer dose, MB concentration, pH, and temperature. The catechol-HCP-Fe could be reused for at least four cycles. The dominant reactive species of the reaction was considered to be singlet oxygen (1O2), and the plausible mechanism of the reaction was proposed.

Fe, N-doped carbon spheres prepared by electrospinning method as high efficiency oxygen reduction catalyst.

Project description:Electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are crucial in metal-air batteries, fuel cells and other electrochemical devices. In this study, iron and nitrogen co-doped carbon sphere electrocatalysts were synthesized by electrospinning and thermal treatment. According to the results, the catalyst marked as Fe-N/MCS-181 (Fe, N-doped mesoporous carbon spheres, iron nitrate nonahydrate as the iron source) has not only the highest iron content, which reaches up to 0.13%, but also a spherical shape. And its pore sizes are 11 and 35 nm. For the electrochemical performance, the onset potential (E onset) of Fe-N/MCS-181 is -0.018 V, while the half-wave potential (E 1/2) of Fe-N/MCS-181 is -0.145 V, which is better than the commercial Pt/C catalyst (E 1/2 is -0.18 V). The durability of the Fe-N/MCS-181 catalyst is better than commercial Pt/C. After 10 000 s, the retention ratio of current density is 86.4%, while that of the commercial Pt/C catalyst is 84.2%. At the same time, the methanol tolerance of the Fe-N/MCS-181 catalyst is also excellent. After adding methanol, the current density of the Fe-N/MCS-181 catalyst has no obvious change. This study provides an easy method to fabricate a highly efficient and durable Fe, N-doped carbon catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction.

High-Temperature Oxidation of Fe₃Al Intermetallic Alloy Prepared by Additive Manufacturing LENS.

Project description:The isothermal oxidation of Fe-28Al-5Cr (at%) intermetallic alloy microalloyed with Zr and B (<0.08 at%) in air atmosphere, in the temperature range of 1000 to 1200 °C, was studied. The investigation was carried out on the thin-walled (<1 mm) elements prepared by Laser Engineered Net Shaping (LENS) from alloy powder of a given composition. Characterization of the specimens, after the oxidation, was conducted using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM, with back-scatter detector (BSE) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) attachments). The investigation has shown, that the oxidized samples were covered with a thin, homogeneous α-Al₂O₃ oxide layers. The intensity of their growth indicates that the material lost its resistance to oxidation at 1200 °C. Structural analysis of the thin-walled components' has not shown intensification of the oxidation process at the joints of additive layers.

Rhodamine 6G derivative for the selective copper detection and remediation using nanoporous diatomaceous earth-engineered functional receptor.

Project description:A rhodamine-derived receptor was synthesized and comprehensively characterized for structural confirmation. The receptor was able to distinguish the copper ions (Cu2+) from other competing cations. The yellow color of the receptor changed to pink upon adding Cu2+ ions, however, other competing cations ions were impotent towards any color variation. The UV-visible titration studies revealed the binding stoichiometry of a 1:1 ratio with a detection limit of 9.663 × 10-8 M. Additionally, a novel idea of the work resides in the use of diatom for the practical application, where the receptor has been tethered on nanoporous diatomaceous earth microparticles (P2D) to remove Cu2+ ions. The results confirmed that 50 mg receptor functionalized DE could adsorb 10 mL of 1 ppm Cu2+ ions from water. Furthermore, a proof-of-concept device that is inexpensive, simple to operate, and continuously removes Cu2+ ions from water has been developed. The efficiency of the device in Cu2+ ion removal could be realized through the naked eye by observing the color change of P2D particles, which has excellent potential for application in remote locations where water contamination is a significant issue.

Project description:A fascinating way to originate a mechanically stable metallogel of ferric ions with metal-coordinating organic ligand triethylenetetramine through direct mixing of their water solutions in a stoichiometric ratio is achieved under ambient conditions. The rheological study established the mechanical property of the Fe(III) metallogel. A cashew-shaped microstructure of the metallogel was observed by FESEM analysis. The electrical property of the Fe(III) metallogel was also carefully scrutinized. The semiconducting features like the Schottky barrier diode property of the Fe(III) metallogel were explored. The catalytic role of the Fe(III) metallogel was also critically explored. The Fe(III) metallogel shows an excellent catalytic property toward the synthesis of aryl thioethers via a C-S coupling reaction under mild reaction conditions without the use of any organic solvent.

CuCo and sulfur doped carbon nitride composite as an effective Fenton-like catalyst in a wide pH range.

Project description:The heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction, as an advanced oxidation process, is widely recognized attributed to its recyclability, wide pH response range, easy solid-liquid separation, and non-production of iron sludge. Recently, the bimetallic catalysts have attracted intense attention due to their high catalytic performance and excellent stability over a wide pH range. In this article, CuCo/SCN bimetallic catalyst was prepared by pyrolysis method with sulfur doped carbon nitride (SCN) as the carrier. Under the conditions of pH = 7, catalyst dosage of 0.8 g/L, and concentration of H2O2 of 15 mM, 20 mg/L of methyl orange (MO) can be completely removed within 1 h. With the synergistic action between bimetals and sulfur doped carbon nitride, the CuCO/SCN involved Fenton-like system exhibited excellent catalytic degradation efficiency and strong stability for MO in neutral and weak alkaline conditions. The EPR characterization proved that OH and O2 - were the main active components. Furthermore, CuCo/SCN involved Fenton-like system has good adaptability. Bimetallic CuCo/SCN catalyst has great application potential in the degradation of environmental pollutants.
