Selective and Adjustable Removal of Phenolic Compounds from Water by Biquaternary Ammonium Polyacrylonitrile Fibers.

ABSTRACT: A series of biquaternary ammonium-functionalized fibers were developed to efficiently realize selective removal of phenolic compounds from water. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were employed to determine the successful preparation of functionalized fibers. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, and elemental analysis were used to analyze the microstructure and composition. First, the adsorption result shows that a fiber with a three-carbon alkyl chain (PAN_BQAS-3F) has the maximum adsorption capacity for 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP) (406 mg g^-1). Electrostatic attraction and π-π interaction are the main forces in adsorption. The adsorption kinetics studies display that PAN_BQAS-3F can rapidly adsorb 2,4-DNP in 10 min and achieve equilibrium within 20 min. The adsorption process of 2,4-DNP by PAN_BQAS-3F follows the Langmuir model, demonstrating that the process is more consistent with monolayer adsorption. What is more, the adsorbent PAN_BQAS-3F can be reused after 10 adsorption/desorption cycles and still maintains an excellent removal rate (99%). Otherwise, PAN_BQAS-3F was used in a continuous flow process and exhibited a removal rate of more than 96%, which certifies that PAN_BQAS-3F is an excellent adsorbent and can be utilized in practice.

High-capacity and selective ammonium removal from water using sodium cobalt hexacyanoferrate.

Project description:A new NH4 + adsorbent with high capacity and selectivity, sodium cobalt(ii) hexacyanoferrate(ii) (NaCoHCF, Na y Co(ii) [Fe2+(CN)6] x ·zH2O), was prepared. The adsorption performance was investigated by varying the mixing ratio of [Fe(CN)6]4- to Co2+ during synthesis, R mix. The ammonia capacity was found to be proportional to R mix, indicating that the NH4 + capacity can be increased by increasing the Na+-ion content in NaCoHCF. To conduct a detailed study, we prepared homogeneous nanoparticles by flow synthesis using a micromixer with R mix = 1.00. Even on the addition of a saline solution (NaCl) with an Na+-ion concentration of 9350 mg L-1, the capacity was maintained: q max = 4.28 mol kg-1. Using Markham-Benton analysis, the selectivity factor, defined by the ratio of equilibrium constants for NH4 + to that for Na+, was calculated to be α = 96.2, and 4.36 mol kg-1 was found to be the maximum capacity. The high selectivity of NaCoHCF results in good NH4 +-adsorption performance, even from seawater. In comparison with other adsorbents under the same conditions and even for a NH4Cl solution, NaCoHCF showed the highest capacity. Moreover, the coexisting Na+ caused no interference with the adsorption of ammonium by NaCoHCF, whereas the other adsorbents adsorbed ammonia only slightly from the saline solution. We also found that the pores for NH4 + adsorption changed their sizes and shapes after adsorption.

Preparation of Composite Monolith Supercapacitor Electrode Made from Textile-Grade Polyacrylonitrile Fibers and Phenolic Resin.

Project description:In this work a composite monolith was prepared from widely available and cost effective raw materials, textile-grade polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fibers and phenolic resin. Two activation procedures (physical and chemical) were used to increase the surface area of the produced carbon electrode. Characterization of the thermally stabilized fibers produced was made using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and Carbon-Hydrogen-Nitrogen(CHN) elemental analysis, in order to choose the optimum conditions of producing the stabilized fibers. Characterization of the produced composite monolith electrode was performed using physical adsorption of nitrogen at 77 °K, cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) and electrical resistivity in order to evaluate its performance. All the electrodes prepared had a mixture of micropores and mesopores. Pressing the green monolith during the curing process was found to reduce largely the specific surface area and to some degree the electrical resistivity of the chemically activated composite electrode. Physical activation was more suitable than chemical activation, where it resulted in an electrode with specific capacity 29 F/g, good capacitive behavior and the stability of the electrical resistivity over the temperature range -130 to 80 °C. Chemical activation resulted in a very poor electrode with resistive rather than capacitive properties.

Removal of diclofenac sodium from water using a polyacrylonitrile mixed-matrix membrane embedded with MOF-808.

Project description:MOF-808, owing to the synergistic effect of its large surface area and surface charge matching, showed a diclofenac sodium (DCF) removal capacity as high as 630 mg g-1, and the ability to adsorb 436 mg g-1 DCF in two hours, outperforming many common Zr-MOFs under the same conditions. Importantly, a series of free-standing mixed-matrix membranes made by combining polyacrylonitrile with MOF-808 were fabricated and exhibited high efficiency of removing DCF from water via an easily accessible filtration method.

Dry-Jet Wet Spinning of Thermally Stable Lignin-Textile Grade Polyacrylonitrile Fibers Regenerated from Chloride-Based Ionic Liquids Compounds.

Project description:In this paper, we report on the use of amorphous lignin, a waste by-product of the paper industry, for the production of high performance carbon fibers (CF) as precursor with improved thermal stability and thermo-mechanical properties. The precursor was prepared by blending of lignin with polyacrylonitrile (PAN), which was previously dissolved in an ionic liquid. The fibers thus produced offered very high thermal stability as compared with the fiber consisting of pure PAN. The molecular compatibility, miscibility, and thermal stability of the system were studied by means of shear rheological measurements. The achieved mechanical properties were found to be related to the temperature-dependent relaxation time (consistence parameter) of the spinning dope and the diffusion kinetics of the ionic liquids from the fibers into the coagulation bath. Furthermore, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and dynamic mechanical tests (DMA) were utilized to understand in-depth the thermal and the stabilization kinetics of the developed fibers and the impact of lignin on the stabilization process of the fibers. Low molecular weight lignin increased the thermally induced physical shrinkage, suggesting disturbing effects on the semi-crystalline domains of the PAN matrix, and suppressed the chemically induced shrinkage of the fibers. The knowledge gained throughout the present paper allows summarizing a novel avenue to develop lignin-based CF designed with adjusted thermal stability.

Feedforward Artificial Neural Network-Based Model for Predicting the Removal of Phenolic Compounds from Water by Using Deep Eutectic Solvent-Functionalized CNTs.

Project description:In the recent decade, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have occupied a strategic place in green chemistry research. This paper discusses the application of DESs as functionalization agents for multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to produce novel adsorbents for the removal of 2,4-dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) from aqueous solution. Also, it focuses on the application of the feedforward backpropagation neural network (FBPNN) technique to predict the adsorption capacity of DES-functionalized CNTs. The optimum adsorption conditions that are required for the maximum removal of 2,4-DCP were determined by studying the impact of the operational parameters (i.e., the solution pH, adsorbent dosage, and contact time) on the adsorption capacity of the produced adsorbents. Two kinetic models were applied to describe the adsorption rate and mechanism. Based on the correlation coefficient (R2) value, the adsorption kinetic data were well defined by the pseudo second-order model. The precision and efficiency of the FBPNN model was approved by calculating four statistical indicators, with the smallest value of the mean square error being 5.01 × 10-5. Moreover, further accuracy checking was implemented through the sensitivity study of the experimental parameters. The competence of the model for prediction of 2,4-DCP removal was confirmed with an R2 of 0.99.

Occurrence and removal of phenolic endocrine disrupting chemicals in the water treatment processes.

Project description:This paper evaluated the occurrence and removal efficiency of four selected phenolic endocrine disrupting chemicals (bisphenol A (BPA), octylphenol (OP), nonylphenol (NP) and diethylstilbestrol (DES)) in two drinking waterworks in Jiangsu province which take source water from Taihu Lake. The recombined yeast estrogen screen (YES) and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) were applied to assess the estrogenicity and detect the estrogens in the samples. The estrogen equivalents (EEQs) ranged from nd (not detected) to 2.96 ng/L, and the estrogenic activities decreased along the processes. Among the 32 samples, DES prevailed in all samples, with concentrations ranging 1.46-12.0 ng/L, BPA, OP and NP were partially detected, with concentrations ranging from nd to 17.73 ng/L, nd to 0.49 ng/L and nd to 3.27 ng/L, respectively. DES was found to be the main contributor to the estrogenicity (99.06%), followed by NP (0.62%), OP (0.23%) and BPA (0.09%). From the observation of treatment efficiency, the advanced treatment processes presented much higher removal ratio in reducing DES, the biodegradation played an important role in removing BPA, ozonation and pre-oxidation showed an effective removal on all the four estrogens; while the conventional ones can also reduce all the four estrogens.

An Innovative Porous Nanocomposite Material for the Removal of Phenolic Compounds from Aqueous Solutions.

Project description:Energy efficient, low-cost, user-friendly, and green methods for the removal of toxic phenolic compounds from aqueous solution are necessary for waste treatment in industrial applications. Herein we present an interesting approach for the utilization of oxidized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in the removal of phenolic compounds from aqueous solution. Dried pristine CNTs were stably incorporated in a solid porous support of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) facilitating the handling during both oxidation process of the nanomaterial and uptake of phenolic compounds, and enabling their safe disposal, avoiding expensive post-treatment processes. The adsorption studies indicated that the materials can efficiently remove phenolic compounds from water with different affinities towards different phenolic compounds. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics and isotherms were studied in detail. The experimental data of adsorption fitted well with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, and pseudo-second-order kinetics, and the results indicated that the adsorption process was controlled by a two-step intraparticle diffusion model. The incorporation of CNTs in polymeric matrices did not affect their functionality in phenol uptake. The material was also successfully used for the removal of phenolic compounds from agricultural waste, suggesting its possible application in the treatment of wastewater. Moreover, the surface of the material could be regenerated, decreasing treatment costs.

Catechol-Based Porous Organic Polymers for Effective Removal of Phenolic Pollutants from Water.

Project description:Phenolic pollutants released from industrial activities seriously damage natural freshwater resources, and their elimination or reduction to safe levels is an urgent challenge. In this study, three catechol-based porous organic polymers, CCPOP, NTPOP, and MCPOP, were prepared using sustainable lignin biomass-derived monomers for the adsorption of phenolic contaminants in water. CCPOP, NTPOP, and MCPOP showed good adsorption performance for 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) with theoretical maximum adsorption capacities of 808.06 mg/g, 1195.30 mg/g, and 1076.85 mg/g, respectively. In addition, MCPOP maintained a stable adsorption performance after eight consecutive cycles. These results indicate that MCPOP is a potential material for the effective treatment of phenol pollutants in wastewater.

Soil water solutes reduce the critical micelle concentration of quaternary ammonium compounds.

Project description:Quaternary alkyl ammonium compounds (QAACs) are produced in large quantities for use as surfactants and disinfectants and also found in soils, sediments, and surface waters, where they are potentially involved in the selection of antibiotic resistance genes. Micelle formation influences fate and effects of QAACs. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of six homologs of benzylalkylammonium chlorides (BAC) was determined in deionized water, 0.01 M CaCl2 solution, and aqueous soil extracts, using both spectrofluorometric and tensiometric methods. Additionally, eight organic model compounds were employed at concentrations of 15 mg C L-1 as background solutes in order to test the effect of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) on CMCs. Results found CMCs decreased with an increasing length of the alkyl chain from 188 mM for BAC-C8 to 0.1 mM for BAC-C18. Both methods yielded similar results for measurements in water and CaCl2 solution; however, the spectrofluorescence method did not work for soil extracts due to fluorescence quenching phenomena. In soil extracts, CMCs of BAC-C12 were reduced below 3.7 mM, while the CMC reduction in soil extracts was less pronounced for BAC-C16. Besides ionic strength, molecular structures of BACs and dissolved organic compounds also affected the CMC. The number of carboxyl groups and small molecular weights of the DOC model compounds reduced the CMCs of BAC-C12 and BAC-C16 at pH 6. This study highlights that CMCs can be surpassed in soil solution, pore waters of sediments, or other natural waters even at (small) concentrations of QAACs typically found in the environment.

Rice Husk-Derived Activated Carbons for Adsorption of Phenolic Compounds in Water.

Project description:Activated carbons are synthesized from rice husk by one- and two-step pyrolysis. In general, two-step pyrolysis produces a higher yield of activated carbons. The yield of activated carbon decreases with the increase of mass ratio of KOH and biomass, which has a significant impact on the development of surface area and porosity. The maximum S BET (2138 m2 g-1) is achieved with micro- and mesoporous structures, which is favored for the adsorption process. The activated carbons can efficiently remove phenol from water by a few minutes. In particular, the maximum adsorption capacity (201 mg g-1) is achieved due to the excellent surface textural properties. The Langmuir model can better define the adsorption isotherm. The high correlation coefficient value (R 2 = 0.9991) indicates a monolayer adsorption behavior. The adsorption process can be well-fitted by the pseudo-second-order model. Herein, the phenol molecules pass into the internal surface via liquid-film-controlled diffusion, so the behavior of phenol adsorption onto activated carbons is mainly controlled via chemisorption. In addition, the functional groups on the outer surfaces of activated carbons can attract the phenol molecules onto their internal surface via the "?-? dispersion interaction" and "donor-acceptor effect."
