One-pot synthesis of CdS/metal-organic framework aerogel composites for efficient visible photocatalytic reduction of aqueous Cr(vi).

ABSTRACT: Metal-organic framework aerogels (MOAs) embedded with CdS (CdS/MOA(Cr)) synthesized via a facile one-pot solvothermal method have a larger surface area than pristine MOA(Cr) and the post-synthesized composite. CdS/MOA(Cr) exhibited 5 times enhancement in the photocatalytic activity than that of pure CdS for Cr(vi) reduction under visible light without adding any sacrificial agent, due to the larger surface area and photosensitazation of MOA(Cr).

Multifunctional CdS Nanoparticle-Decorated CeO2 as Efficient Visible Light Photocatalysts and Toxic Cr(VI) Sensors.

Project description:Several one-dimensional and three-dimensional CdS@CeO2 nanocomposites were synthesized by a solvothermal route. A nanoflower-shaped CdS@CeO2 nanocomposite (CdS-NF@CeO2) was selected as the model catalyst after various characterizations. It was, then, employed directly as a luminescent sensor for Cr(VI) detection in an aqueous medium. A good linear quenching was observed in the range of 0-0.5 μM with a detection limit of 0.04 μM. The quantum yield of the catalyst was found to be 73%. Moreover, our catalyst is highly selective toward Cr(VI) and can be applied as an efficient sensor for real water analysis. The efficiency of the catalyst was also tested in controlling the photocatalytic activity for oxidation of benzylamine to N-benzylidenebenzylamine under a domestic LED bulb with molecular O2 as a sole, green oxidant. Conversion (>99.9%) and selectivity as high as 100% were observed for the CdS-NF@CeO2 photocatalyst. These results show the potential applications of CdS-NF@CeO2 nanocomposites as an efficient photocatalyst for organic transformation and environmental remediation.

Spherical Bi2WO6/Bi2S3/MoS2 n-p Heterojunction with Excellent Visible-Light Photocatalytic Reduction Cr(VI) Activity.

Project description:Exploiting excellent photocatalytic activity and stable heterostructure composites are of critical importance for environmental sustainability. The spherical Bi2WO6/Bi2S3/MoS2 n-p heterojunction is first prepared via an in situ hydrothermal method using Bi2WO6, Na2MoO4·2H2O, and CH4N2S, in which the intermediate phase Bi2S3 is formed due to chemical coupling interaction of Bi2WO6 and CH4N2S. Scanning electron microscopy indicates that the compactness of the sample can be easily adjusted by changing the contents of S and Mo sources in the solution. The results of ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) diffuse reflectance spectra, photoluminescence, transient photocurrent response, and electrochemical impedance spectra indicate that the formation of heterojunctions contributes to enhancing visible-light utilization and promoting photogenerated carrier separation and transfer. The composite material is used as a catalyst for the visible light photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI). Remarkably, the optimal Bi2WO6/Bi2S3/MoS2 n-p heterojunction achieves the greatest Cr(VI) reduction rate of 100% within 75 min (λ > 420 nm, pH = 2); this rate is considerably better than the Cr(VI) reduction rate of pure Bi2WO6. The recycling experiment also reveals that the photocatalytic performance of the n-p heterojunction toward Cr(VI) is still maintained at 80% after three cycles, indicating that the n-p heterojunction has excellent structural stability. The capture experiment proves that the main active species in the system are electrons. The reasonable mechanism of Bi2WO6/Bi2S3/MoS2 photocatalytic reduction Cr(VI) is proposed. Our work provides new research ideas for the design of ternary heterojunction composites and new strategies for the development of photocatalysts for wastewater treatment.

An Amine-Functionalized Iron(III) Metal-Organic Framework as Efficient Visible-Light Photocatalyst for Cr(VI) Reduction.

Project description:The photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) is investigated over iron(III)-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) structured as MIL-88B. It is found that MIL-88B (Fe) MOFs, containing Fe3-μ3-oxo clusters, can be used as photocatalyst for the reduction of Cr(VI) under visible light irradiation, which is due to the direct excitation of Fe3-μ3-oxo clusters. The amine-functionalized MIL-88B (Fe) MOFs (denoted as NH2-MIL-88B (Fe)) shows much higher efficiency for the photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction under visible-light irradiation compared with MIL-88B (Fe). It is revealed that in addition to the direct excitation of Fe3-μ3-oxo clusters, the amine functionality in NH2-MIL-88B (Fe) can also be excited and then transferred an electron to Fe3-μ3-oxo clusters, which is responsible for the enhanced photocatalytic activity for Cr(VI) reduction. The enhanced photocatalytic activity for Cr(VI) reduction is also achieved for other two amine-functionalized iron(III)-based MOFs (NH2-MIL-53 (Fe) and NH2-MIL-101 (Fe)).

Adsorption mechanism of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs composites.

Project description:Graphene oxide/polyamidoamine dendrimers (GO/PAMAMs) composites were used to remove Cr(VI) from simulated effluents, the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs were systematically investigated. The results showed that the optimum pH value was 2.5, the removal percentage reached 90.7% for 30 mg/L of Cr(VI) within 120 min. The adsorption process was well described by pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The maximum adsorption capacities of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs were found to be 131.58, 183.82 and 211.42 mg/g at 293.15, 303.15 and 313.15 K, respectively, which were calculated from the Langmuir model equation. The adsorption thermodynamic parameters indicate that the adsorption of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs is a spontaneous endothermic process. The XPS analysis reveals the adsorption and removal mechanism of Cr(VI) on GO/PAMAMs that first the Cr(VI) binds to the protonated amine of GO/PAMAMs, then Cr(VI) be reduced to Cr(III) with the assistance of π-electrons on the carbocyclic six-membered ring of GO in GO/PAMAMs, and then Cr(III) was released into solution under the electrostatic repulsion between the Cr(III) and the protonated amine groups.

Development of Efficient Photocatalyst MIL-68(Ga)_NH2 Metal-Organic Framework for the Removal of Cr(VI) and Cr(VI)/RhB from Wastewater under Visible Light.

Project description:Severe environmental pollution is caused by the massive discharge of complex industrial wastewater. The photocatalytic technology has been proved as an effective way to solve the problem, while an efficient photocatalyst is the most critical factor. Herein, a new photocatalyst MIL-68(Ga)_NH2 was obtained by hydrothermal synthesis and were characterized by PXRD, FTIR, 1H NMR, and TGA systematically. The result demonstrates that MIL-68(Ga)_NH2 crystallized in orthorhombic system and Cmcm space group with the unit cell parameters: a = 36.699 Å, b = 21.223 Å, c = 6.75 Å, V = 5257.6 Å3, which sheds light on the maintenance of the crystal structure of the prototype material after amino modification. The conversion of Cr(VI) and binary pollutant Cr(VI)/RhB in wastewater under visible light stimulation was characterized by the UV-vis DRS. Complementary experimental results indicate that MIL-68(Ga)_NH2 exhibits remarkable photocatalytic activity for Cr(VI) and the degradation rate reaches as high as 98.5% when pH = 2 and ethanol as hole-trapping agent under visible light irradiation with good reusability and stability. Owing to the synergistic effect between Cr(VI) and RhB in the binary pollutant system, MIL-68(Ga)_NH2 exhibits excellent catalytic activity for both the pollutants, the degradation efficiency of Cr(VI) and RhB was up to 95.7% and 94.6% under visible light irradiation for 120 min, respectively. The possible removal mechanism of Cr(VI)/RhB based on MIL-68(Ga)_NH2 was explored. In addition, Ga-based MOF was applied in the field of photocatalytic treatment of wastewater for the first time, which broadened the application of MOF materials in the field of photocatalysis.

The enhanced visible-light-induced photocatalytic activities of bimetallic Mn-Fe MOFs for the highly efficient reductive removal of Cr(vi).

Project description:The photocatalytic efficiencies of bimetallic MOFs, namely STA-12-Mn-Fe, for the reductive removal of Cr(vi) were explored. The best effective variable values were obtained and correlation between the response and influential variables was optimized via experimental design methodology. Complete Cr(vi) removal was achieved under natural sunlight and fluorescent 40 W lamp radiation at pH 2, with an initial Cr(vi) concentration of 20 mg L-1, and 10 mg of photocatalyst within 30 min. A pseudo-first-order rate constant of 0.132 min-1 at T = 298 K was obtained for the Cr(vi) reduction reaction. The title catalysts revealed high performance in the visible region based on photoefficiency measurements, while improved activity was observed compared to the corresponding single-metal MOFs under natural sunlight, highlighting the synergistic effect between the two metal ions. Trapping experiment results proved that direct electron transfer is the main pathway during the photocatalytic Cr(vi) reduction process.

Fabrication of chitosan/magnetite-graphene oxide composites as a novel bioadsorbent for adsorption and detoxification of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution.

Project description:By utilizing the synergistic effect of chitosan (CS), magnetite (Fe3O4) particles, and graphene oxide (GO), a series of efficient and eco-friendly chitosan/magnetite-graphene oxide (CS/MGO) composites were fabricated through a facile chemical route. First, Fe3O4 particles were chemically deposited on the surface of GO to fabricate MGO hybrid. Then, chitosan was attached on MGO sheets, assembling to CS/MGO composites. According to the results of characterization, the covalent Fe-O-C bonds, electrostatic attraction, and hydrogen bonding between GO, Fe3O4, and chitosan ensure excellent structural stability and physico-chemical properties. The adsorption of Cr(VI) onto CS/MGO composites was also carried out under various conditions (content of CS, pH, initial concentration, contact time, and temperature). The CS/MGO composites possess high removal capacity for Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. Moreover, results also suggested that the CS/MGO composites had a strong reducing action for Cr(VI). When adsorption occurred, Cr(VI) and Cr(III) were simultaneously removed by CS/MGO composites. In addition, CS/MGO composites could retain good Cr(VI) removal efficiency after reuse over five cycles. CS/MGO composites are expected to have potential applications as easily regenerative bioadsorbents for Cr(VI) polluted water cleanup.

Facile Synthesis of Novel CaIn₂S₄/ZnIn₂S₄ Composites with Efficient Performance for Photocatalytic Reduction of Cr(VI) under Simulated Sunlight Irradiation.

Project description:A series of novel and efficient heterostructured composites CaIn₂S₄/ZnIn₂S₄ have been synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method. XRD patterns indicate the as-prepared catalysts are two-phase composites of cubic phase CaIn₂S₄ and hexagonal phase ZnIn₂S₄. FESEM (field emission scanning electron microscope) images display that the synthesized composites are composed of flower-like microspheres with wide diameter distribution. UV⁻Vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS) show that the optical absorption edges of the CaIn₂S₄/ZnIn₂S₄ composites shift toward longer wavelengths with the increase of the CaIn₂S₄ component. The photocatalytic activities of the as-synthesized composites are investigated by using the aqueous-phase Cr(VI) reduction under simulated sunlight irradiation. This is the first report on the application of the CaIn₂S₄/ZnIn₂S₄ composites as stable and efficient photocatalysts for the Cr(VI) reduction. The fabricated CaIn₂S₄/ZnIn₂S₄ composites possess higher photocatalytic performance in comparison with pristine CaIn₂S₄ or ZnIn₂S₄. The CaIn₂S₄/ZnIn₂S₄ composite with a CaIn₂S₄ molar content of 30% exhibits the optimum photocatalytic activity. The primary reason for the significantly enhanced photoreduction activity is proved to be the substantially improved separation efficiency of photogenerated electrons/holes caused by forming the CaIn₂S₄/ZnIn₂S₄ heterostructured composites. The efficient charge separation can be evidenced by steady-state photoluminescence spectra (PLs) and transient photocurrent response. Based on the charge transfer between CaIn₂S₄ and ZnIn₂S₄, an enhancement mechanism of photocatalytic activity and stability for the Cr(VI) reduction is proposed.

Removal of aqueous Cr(VI) by magnetic biochar derived from bagasse.

Project description:We prepared a novel adsorbent functionalized by bagasse magnetic biochar (BMBC). To study the removal behaviors and mechanisms of Cr(VI) by BMBC, batch adsorption experiments were conducted by modifying variables, such as pH, adsorption time, BMBC dosages, initial Cr concentration, co-existing ions, and ionic strength, and characterizing BMBC before and after Cr(VI) adsorption. BMBC was primarily composed of Fe2O3 and Fe3O4 on bagasse boichar with an amorphous structure. The specific surface area of BMBC was 81.94 m2 g-1, and the pHpzc of BMBC was 6.2. The fabricated BMBC showed high adsorption performance of Cr(VI) in aqueous solution. The maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of BMBC was 29.08 mg g-1 at 25 ºC, which was much higher than that of conventional biochar sorbents. The adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and could be explained by the involvement of the Langmuir isotherm in monolayer adsorption. The crystalline structure of Fe3O4 in the BMBC changed slightly during the adsorption process; Fe3O4 improved the adsorption of Cr(VI) on BMB. The desorption capacity of Cr(VI) was 8.21 mg g-1 when 0.2 mol L-1 NaOH was used as the desorption solution. After being reused three times, the removal efficiency is still as high as 80.36%.

Aminated EVOH nanofiber membranes for Cr(vi) adsorption from aqueous solution.

Project description:Ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) nanofiber membranes were prepared by melt-blending extrusion with cellulose acetate butyrate ester (CAB) as the matrix and a high-speed flow deposition process. Then, aminated-EVOH (l-Lys/EVOH, Cy/l-Lys/EVOH and DETA/EVOH) nanofiber membranes were prepared for hexavalent chromium [Cr(vi)] removal by facile chemical modification on the surface of EVOH nanofiber membranes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were carried out to test the morphology and structure of aminated-EVOH nanofiber membranes. Adsorption experiments suggested that amination was beneficial to adsorption, and the optimal pH for prepared membranes to Cr removal was 2.0. Adsorption kinetics analysis revealed that the adsorption process was successfully fitted with a Pseudo-second-order model. The Freundlich isothermal model well described the adsorption isotherm data. A thermodynamic study suggested that the adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. Aminated-EVOH nanofiber membranes exhibited excellent reusability for Cr removal. The Cr adsorption efficiency of DETA/EVOH nanofiber membranes retained up to 98.73% of the initial adsorption after 6 successive adsorption-desorption cycles.
