Abstract According to the characteristics of desulfurization wastewater, A new capacitive deionization (CDI) device was designed to study the desalination characteristics of desulfurization wastewater in this paper. The experiments investigated the desalination efficiency under different conditions which find that the best desalination efficiency is achieved at a voltage of 1.2V, pH = 11 and 50℃. Besides, the ion adsorption is more favorable under acidic and alkaline conditions. The anion and cation removal performance experiments showed that the order of cation removal is Mg2+༞Na+༞Ca2+༞K+ and the order of anion removal is Cl−༞CO32−༞NO3−༞SO42−༞HCO3−. The mechanism of CDI was studied and analyzed by isothermal adsorption model and COMSOL simulation software. It was found that the Freundlich model and Redlich-Peterson model have a good fit with the experimental results. The experiments show that the CDI device has excellent stability. CDI device was used to treat actual desulfurization wastewater. Furthermore, the study provides theoretical support for the industrial application of CDI for desulfurization wastewater treatment in the future.

Abstract A new capacitive deionization (CDI) technology was used to remove Cl− from desulfurization wastewater. TiO2 and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were combined with N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) to form composites by solvothermal method which is coated onto the CDI anode to improve the dechlorination efficiency (DE). The morphology, surface area, wettability, crystal structure and chemical composition of the TiO2/CNTs were characterized. It showed good hydrophilicity (contact angle: 85.9°), high specific surface area (96.68 m²/g) and high specific capacitance (87.6 F/g). The experimental results illustrated that the best DE was achieved by the composites (60%T/C) under 1.2 V with the maximum electrosorption capacity toward 6.5 mg/g, and the TiO2/CNTs composites have excellent stability. The adsorption kinetics analysis was explored and analyzed. Furthermore, TiO2/CNTs composites exhibit excellent DE in actual desulfurization wastewater. The catalysis and adsorption mechanisms of TiO2/CNTs anode were discussed in detail. This study provides a new direction for the application of TiO2/CNTs composites as adsorption materials of CDI in the Cl− of desulfurization wastewater.

The complex structure and surface property of porous media have significant impact on its accumulation and adsorption capacity. Based on the fractal theory, this paper presents a fractal pore structure model for shales. The effect of different pore structures on fractal dimension is discussed, and the influence of fractal dimension and pore size distribution on porosity is also analyzed. It is shown that the fractal dimension D decreases with the increase of structure parameter q/m for a certain pore diameter ratio, and porosity has positive relationship with fractal dimension. This paper also presents a multilayer fractal adsorption model which takes into account the roughness of adsorption surface by using fractal theory. With the introduction of pseudo-saturated vapor pressure in the supercritical temperature condition, the proposed adsorption model can be applied into a wider range of temperature. Based on the low-pressure nitrogen adsorption and methane isothermal adsorption experiments, the effect of fractal dimension on the adsorption behavior of shales is discussed. Fractal dimension has significant impact on the surface adsorption property and adsorption layer number n. The monolayer saturated adsorption volume Vm increases with the increase of D, while parameter C has the opposite variation trend. Finally, the optimal combination of fractal parameters for describing pore structure of shale samples is selected.

A new study was presented on a new sensor based on two-dimensional photonic crystals (Phc's) to detect the following three organic materials: iodobenzene (C6H5I), fluorobenzene (C6H5F), chlorobenzene (C6H5Cl). These materials have dielectric constants (εr) equal to 2.623; 2.140; 2.318, respectively. The proposed sensor is a structure made of silicon rods submerged in air plus a ring resonator. The ring resonator is stuck between two horizontal waveguides. At the end of the ends of the structure there are four ports where port 1 and 2 belong to the top guide and port (3) and (4) the bottom one. In order to analyze the behavior of the sensor, a plane wave expansion approach (PWE) and the finite element method (FEM) are applied. Thanks to the MATLAB and COMSOL simulation software, we were able to obtain the following numerical results: the norm of the electric field, the total energy density and this last magnitude according to the refractive indices of the different organic materials used. We could observe variations in energy density for each material. So, this change is due to their refractive index which varies from one material to another. In this study, we have fixed the other parameters like the constant of the lattice "a" and the radius "r" and we are interested in the dielectric constants (εr) or more precisely the refractive index (n), the latter proves that it is one of the important parameters for detection.

Abstract The adsorption of Ni(II) by a thermo-sensitive adsorbent of methylcellulose/calcium alginate beads (CAMCBs) was studied using batch adsorption tests to determine the adsorption process and properties, the effects of adsorbent dosage, initial concentration, adsorption time and temperature. The adsorption process was further investigated using kinetics, isotherms and thermodynamic methods. The kinetics and isotherms studies showed the adsorption of Ni(II) on CAMCBs was fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isothermal adsorption model, respectively. The thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic at lower temperature, and the entropy of the adsorption process was negative. In the study of regeneration, it was confirmed that under the temperature of 60 °C, the desorption agent of CaCl2 with concentration of 3 g·L−1 was more conducive to the desorption of Ni(II) from CAMCBs. Both adsorption capacity and mechanical strength of the used CAMCBs could be basically recovered to the level of fresh CAMCBs after desorption. The prepared CAMCBs had a good property of adsorption of Ni(II) and an excellent regeneration performance.

The magnetic adsorption material of polyaniline (PANI) with amino functional group combined with CuFe2O4 (CuFe2O4/PANI nanocomposite) has been described in this work. It has been characterized by TEM, XRD, XPS, BET, FTIR, and VSM, respectively. Significantly, it exhibits extremely high maximum adsorption capacity (322.6 mg/g) for removal of uranyl ions from wastewater at a pH of 4. The adsorption process is consistent with the quasisecond-order kinetic equation, and the isotherm and kinetic data are accurately described by the Langmuir isothermal adsorption model. Furthermore, the magnetic CuFe2O4/PANI displays stable adsorption performance for uranyl ions after five cycles of recovery in acid medium, which indicates it possesses good recovery due to its magnetism and excellent regeneration ability for reusability.

Abstract In recent years, the treatment of water pollution has been a challenging and far-reaching topic. In order to improve the adsorption performance of polyvinyl alcohol nanofibers, a new nano-adsorbent graphene oxide was introduced into them in this work. The introduction of GO greatly increases the adsorption of Cu2+, Methylene blue (MB) and Congo Red (CR). The adsorption kinetics and isotherm analysis of the PVA/GO nanofiber film during the adsorption process showed that the adsorption of Cu2+ and MB by PVA/GO nanofiber film was mainly chemical adsorption, while the adsorption of CR was mainly physical adsorption. The adsorption process of PVA/GO nanofiber film on Cu2+ was in line with the Langmuir isothermal adsorption model, that is, single molecular layer adsorption, the distribution of adsorption active sites was relatively uniform, and the increasing temperature was more conducive to the adsorption of Cu2+.

Resin based covalent organic framework material was used as filler for solid phase extraction (SPE), and the solid phase extraction effect was compared with that of traditional COF material (TpBD COFs). The enrichment capacity of four phthalate esters (dimethyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate, dibutyl phthalate, dioctyl phthalate) in beverage samples was investigated by SPE. Adsorption experiments showed that the kinetic adsorption behavior of COF materials for phthalate esters (PAEs) was more consistent with the quasi-second-order kinetic adsorption model, and the static adsorption behavior is more in line with the Freundlich isothermal adsorption model. Solid phase extraction experiments proved that the SPE column prepared with two COF materials as adsorbents had good adsorption effects, high recovery (water: 97.99–100.56% and beverage: 97.93–100.23%) and were reusable (50 cycles), which could meet the requirements for trace detection of phthalate ester. It was found that the solid phase extraction effect was better than the four types of commercial SPE columns. The new COF material reduced the cost of monomer use and provided the possibility for its industrial production. Meanwhile, it also provided a new feasible scheme for enriching trace phthalate esters in practical samples.
