<p>Adsorption models in a simple and accurate way to describe the geometry of the pores have been studied and validated experimentally to predict the adsorption capacity dibenzotiofen molecules on mesoporous carbon. The model is designed according to the size of the pore channels of mesoporous carbon and molecular arrangement dibenzotiofen that goes into the pores. To test the accuracy of the model is done by comparation with results of analysis of nitrogen adsorption-desorption to calculate the volume filled. The results showed that the results of the experimental adsorption data are within the range of values of the pore volume of mesoporous carbon. These results indicate that the pore geometry model molecule can accurately predict the adsorption capacity of a molecule in a mesoporous material.</p><p class="AbstracttitleDERJournal"> </p>

Abstract In this study, MIL-101(Fe), MIL-101(Fe,Cu), and Graphene Oxide (GO) /MIL-101(Fe,Cu) were synthesized to compose a novel sorbent. The adsorption properties of these three MOFs-based composites were compared toward the removal of phosphate. Furthermore, the influencing factors including reaction time, pH, temperature and initial concentration on the adsorption capacity of phosphate on these materials as well as the reusability of the material were discussed. The structure of fabricated materials and the removal mechanism of phosphate on the composite material were analyzed by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis and zeta potential. The results show that the maximum adsorption capacity of phosphate by the composite GO/MIL-101(Fe,Cu)-2% was 204.60 mg·g− 1, which is higher than that of MIL-101(Fe,Cu) and MIL-101(Fe). likewise the specific surface area of GO/MIL-101(Fe,Cu)-2% is 778.11 m2/g is higher than that of MIL-101(Fe,Cu) and MIL-101(Fe),which are 747.75 and 510.66m2/g respectively. The adsorption mechanism of phosphate is electrostatic attraction, form coordination bonds and hydrogen bonds. The fabricated material is a promising adsorbent for the removal of phosphate with good reusability.

Adsorbed natural gas (ANG) can be developed through its porous adsorbent, especially activated carbon (AC) which has larger specific surface area. AC made of soybean straw is developed because of its abundance as agricultural waste in Indonesia and high lignocellulosic content. AC is produced in 500°C furnace for 1 hour with nitrogen gas flow of 200 mL/minute. For AC production, variations of chemical activating agents utilizing ZnCl2 and KOH and the concentration NiO as modification substance are made in this paper. Characterizations are made through iodine number, SEM, EDX, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption for obtaining data of adsorption capacity, surface topography, main composition, and particles specification. ZnCl2 activated carbon shows better result with iodine number of 577.73 mg/g and SBET of 741.26 m2/g, and the second-best is found in 2%-NiO-modified ZnCl2 activated carbon with iodine number of 534.79 mg/g and SBET of 632.24 m2/g. It is concluded that development of soybean straw as activated carbon precursor is still needed to obtain larger SBETand better adsorption capacity.

The present paper studies a kind of mesoporous carbon (MC) with high electrochemical performance, which was prepared by vapor infiltration method. The microstructure and electrochemical properties of the mesoporous carbon were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms, cyclic voltammetry (CV), constant current charge–discharge cycling (CD), and the long-term stability test. The results indicated that the mesoporous carbon has an ordered mesoporous structure, with pore size of about 3.87 nm and surface areas of 1087 m2 ⋅ g-1. The cyclic voltammetry curve reveals typical electrical double-layer capacitor property. After 200 cycles, the CV curves can almost be overlapped, which indicates excellent cycling stability. From the charge/discharge cycling, the specific capacitance of MC is 117 F ⋅ cm-1 in 1.0 M KNO3 electrolyte media at a scan rate of 1.0 mV ⋅ s-1, which decays with increasing current density. The charge–discharge efficiency also decays with it.

In this article, well–dispersed cobalt oxide nanoparticles supported on mesoporous carbon (CMK–3) have been successfully synthesized. The composites were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X–ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption–desorption analysis. The results have confirmed that, at a cobalt loading of 15 wt%, the composites have not only retained mesoporous structure of the support but also shown a good control of dispersed cobalt oxide nanoparticles with size of ~4 nm. The electrochemical property tests for the synthesized samples have shown significant improvement compared to the blank carbon (CMK–3) without cobalt oxide incorporation.

An amine-modified Beta/KIT-6 (BK) micro/mesoporous composite for CO2 capture was synthesized using nonionic tri-block copolymer pluronic (P123) as a template, tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as a silicon source and Beta zeolite as part of silicon aluminum source by a two-step hydrothermal crystallization method. BK was modified by Tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA) or polyethyleneimine (PEI) to obtain solid amine adsorbent. The structure, uniformity and physical properties of the sample were characterized by FTIR, nitrogen adsorption/desorption and elemental analysis methods and CO2 adsorption/desorption behavior of adsorbents and regeneration performance were investigated by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). Experimental results showed that with the increase of amine loading the CO2 adsorption capacity of samples increased first and then decreased at [Formula: see text]C, TEPA-loaded BK and PEI-loaded BK both presented the largest saturated CO2 adsorption capacity when the amine loading reached 60%, and the maximum values were 4.21[Formula: see text]mmol[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text] and 2.72[Formula: see text]mmol[Formula: see text]g[Formula: see text], respectively. BK-TEPA-60 and BK-PEI-60 reached the maximum adsorption capacity at [Formula: see text]C and [Formula: see text]C. The adsorption kinetics analysis showed that the adsorption process of amine-modified BK was dominated by both physical and chemical adsorption. After five cycles of adsorption/desorption, BK-PEI-60 kept better stability with the equilibrium adsorption capacity of exhibited just 2.9% attrition, whereas a 9.2% decrease was obtained for BK-TEPA-60. Compared with other amine-modified solid materials, the materials we designed show good CO2 adsorption performance, indicating that they are promising efficient adsorbents for CO2 capture.

Hierarchically porous ZSM-5 was prepared by utilizing a two-step crystallization procedure with carbon–silica composites as precursors. The hierarchically porous zeolites obtained a regular mesoporous structure with aluminum incorporated into the carbon–silica composite frameworks. The carbon–silica composite zeolites were characterized by XRD, TEM, SEM, and nitrogen adsorption/desorption. As-prepared hierarchical zeolites were used in the 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene (TIPB) cracking reaction and exhibited significantly high TIPB conversion, while the accessibility factors were also determined.

A hierarchical zeolite ZSM-5 with micro and meso-pore was prepared by optimising the most affecting parameter in sequence of desilication and dealumination. The physicochemical properties of zeolite were characterised with XRD, nitrogen adsorption–desorption, FTIR and SEM. The potential of this zeolite for decolorisation of CR, RY, MB, RhB, DB-1 and DB-14 was evaluated with adsorption isotherm, thermodynamics, kinetics, and influencing parameter for adsorption. The unique modification of ZSM-5 resulted in lower crystallinity, easier porosity control, rich terminal silanol and unbridged silanol groups which assisted in higher adsorption capacity. The adsorption capacity of the optimum ZSM-5 was 323, 435, 589, 625, 61 and 244 mg/g for CR, RY, MB, RhB, DB-1 and DB-14, respectively. The dye adsorption progressed through pseudo-first-order kinetic and close to the Langmuir model. The adsorption mechanism is proposed mainly through interaction between deprotonated silanol site and the electron-rich dye site.

Four types of organo-functionalized mesoporous silicas were synthesized by post-grafting method, and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, nitrogen adsorption/desorption and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. In addition, adsorption behaviors of the prepared material modified with different functional groups were studied by adsorption of phenol in aqueous solution. When the concentration of phenol was 800 mg/L, the equilibrium adsorption capacity of N-aminoethyl-γ-aminopropyl-MCM-41, aminopropyl-MCM-41, mercaptopropyl-MCM-41 and propyl-MCM-41 was respectively as 2.5 times, 2.2 times, 1.9 times, and 1.7 times as that of MCM-41. It was due to the introduction of organo-functional groups, changing the polarity of the channel surface, and increasing the hydrophobic properties. N-aminoethyl-γ-aminopropyl and aminopropyl groups could generate acid-base interactions with phenol, therefore, their adsorption capacity increased much more. Besides, the pH value of the solution could significantly affect the adsorption amount of phenol on samples. The result showed that with the increase of pH, the adsorption amount of phenol increased at first, and then decreased. The maximum adsorption amount of all the prepared materials occurred at about pH value of 6.

In this work, zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) was impregnated onto mesoporous carbon nitride (m-C3N4) to expand its absorption to longer wavelength. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm confirmed that the m-C3N4 showed type IV of adsorption-desorption isotherm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the presence of both nanosphere and nanoworm structure in the m-C3N4. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the synthesized m-C3N4 was thermally stable until 723 K. The presence of ZnPc on the m-C3N4 was confirmed from the X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-visible (DR UV-Vis) spectra. The higher the amount of ZnPc loaded on m-C3N4, the higher the intensity of ZnPc peaks in the diffraction patterns. The successful impregnation of ZnPc onto the m-C3N4 was also supported by the color changing of the solids from yellow to blue, which can be seen as an additional broad band at 500-900 nm from the absorption spectra. Since the material gives visible light absorption, it is expected that the ZnPc/m-C3N4 would be a potential photocatalyst for reactions conducted under visible light irradiation.

A novel inorganic molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized by adding Al3+ to the Fe/SiO2 gel with Acid Orange II (AO II) as the template. The MIP was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurement. Compared with the non-imprinted polymer (NIP), the MIP enhanced the adsorption capacity of the target pollutants AO II. The selective adsorption capacity study indicated that the MIP adsorbed more AO II than the interferent Bisphenol A (BPA), which also has the structure of a benzene ring, thus proving the selective adsorption capacity of the MIP for template molecules AO II. In addition, the adsorption of AO II over MIP belonged to the Langmuir type and pseudo-second adsorption kinetics, and Dubinin-Radushkevich model indicates that the adsorption process of AO II over MIP and NIP are both given priority to chemical adsorption. The MIP reusability in performance was demonstrated in at least six repeated cycles.
