A novel collector of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl) dec-2-en-1-one oxime (HPDO) was synthesized from 2-hydroxy acetophenone and octanal, and its flotation and adsorption behavior for malachite were studied by flotation tests and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. The flotation results of a single mineral show HPDO is a special collector for malachite. Compared with benzohydroxamic acid (BHA), isobutyl xanthate (SIBX), and dodecylamine (DA), HPDO exhibits excellent flotation performance for malachite and satisfied selectivity against quartz and calcite over a wide pH range. The HPDO with a concentration of 200 mg/L can float 94% malachite at pH 8, while only recovering 7.8% quartz and 28% calcite. XPS data give clear evidence for the formation of a Cu-oxime complex on malachite surfaces after HPDO adsorption.

Important Objective

Zinc is mostly extracted from oxidized zinc and zinc sulfide minerals, and this process involves flotation as a key step. While it is easier to float the sulfide mineral, its consumption and depletion has led to an increased reliance on oxidized zinc minerals, including smithsonite. Hence, the development of efficient ways of collecting smithsonite by flotation is an important objective. Herein, we describe the use of 2-(hexadecanoylamino)acetic acid (HAA), a novel surfactant, as a collector during smithsonite flotation. The mechanism and flotation performance of HAA during smithsonite flotation was investigated by total organic carbon (TOC) content studies, zeta potential measurements, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses, combined with microflotation experiments. The flotation results revealed that HAA was an excellent collector in pulp over a wide pH range (9–12) and at a relatively low concentration (2 × 10−4 mol/L), at which a recovery of close to 90% of the smithsonite mineral was obtained. TOC content studies revealed that the good flotation recovery was ascribable to large amounts of collector molecule adsorbed on the smithsonite surface, while zeta potential measurements showed that the HAA was chemically adsorbed onto the smithsonite. FTIR and XPS analyses revealed that the HAA collector molecules adsorbed onto the smithsonite surface as zinc–HAA complexes involving carboxylate moieties and Zn sites on the smithsonite surface in alkaline solution.

Arsenic has become a global concern in water environment, and it is essential to develop efficient remediation methods. In this study, a novel adsorbent by loading cerium and manganese oxide onto wheat straw-modified biochar (MBC) was manufactured successfully aiming to remove arsenic from polluted water. Through scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), and other techniques, it was found the loading of cerium and manganese oxide on MBC played a significant role in As(V) adsorption. The results of the batch test showed that the adsorption of MBC followed the pseudo-second order kinetics and Langmuir equation. The adsorption capacity of MBC was 108.88 mg As(V)/g at pH = 5.0 (C0 = 100 mg/L, dosage = 0.5 g/L, T = 298 K) with considerable improvement compared to the original biochar. Moreover, MBC exhibited excellent performance over a wide pH range (2.0~11.0). Thermodynamics of the sorption reaction showed that the entropy (ΔS), changes of enthalpy (ΔH) and Gibbs free energy (ΔG), respectively, were 85.88 J/(moL·K), 22.54 kJ/mol and −1.33 to −5.20 kJ/mol at T = 278~323 K. During the adsorption, the formation of multiple complexes under the influence of its abundant surface M-OH (M represents the Ce/Mn) groups involving multiple mechanisms that included electrostatic interaction forces, surface adsorption, redox reaction, and surface complexation. This study indicated that MBC is a promising adsorbent to remove As(V) from polluted water and has great potential in remediating of arsenic contaminated environment.

A novel heterogeneous Fenton-like photocatalyst, Fe-doped graphitic carbon nitride (Fe-g-C3N4), was produced by facile two-step calcination method. This Fe–g–C3N4 catalyzed rhodamine B degradation in the presence of H2O2 accompanied with visible light irradiation. transmission electron microscopy(TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and photoluminescence fluorescent spectrometer (PL) characterization analysis methods were adopted to evaluate the physicochemical property of samples. It can be observed that the Fe-g-C3N4 exhibited excellent photocatalytic Fenton-like activity at a wide pH range of 3–9, with rhodamine B(RhB) degradation efficiency up to 95.5% after irradiation for 45 min in the presence of 1.0 mM H2O2. Its high activity was ascribed to the formation of Fe–N ligands in the triazine rings that accelerated electron movement driving the Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle, and inhibited photo-generated electron hole re-combinations for continuous generation of reactive oxygen species by reactions between Fe(II) and H2O2. The main active oxygen species were hydroxyl radicals, followed by superoxide radicals and hole electrons. This produced catalyst of Fe–g–C3N4 shows excellent reusability and stability, and can be a promising candidate for decontamination of wastewater.

AbstractThe speciation of antimony is strongly influenced by its oxidation state (V, III, 0, —III). Redox processes under anaerobic groundwater conditions may therefore greatly alter the environmental behaviour of Sb. Employing X-ray absorption and photoelectron spectroscopy, we show here that Sb(V) is reduced to Sb(III) by magnetite and mackinawite, two ubiquitous Fe(II)-containing minerals, while Sb(III) is not reduced further. At the surface of magnetite, Sb(III) forms a highly symmetrical sorption complex at the position otherwise occupied by tetrahedral Fe(III). The Sb(V) reduction increases with pH, and at pH values >6.5 Sb(V) is completely reduced to Sb(III) within 30 days. In contrast, at the mackinawite surface, Sb(V) is completely reduced across a wide pH range and within 1 h. The Sb(V) reduction proceeds solely by oxidation of surface Fe(II), while the oxidation state of sulphide is conserved. Independent of whether Sb(V) or Sb(III) was added, an amorphous or nano-particulate SbS3-like solid formed.

ABSTRACTWe have successfully fabricated self-organized GaN nanotips by reactive ion etching using chlorine plasma, and have revealed the formation mechanism. Nanotips with a high density and a high aspect ratio have been formed after the etching. We deduce from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis that the nanotip formation is attributed to nanometer-scale masks of SiO2 on GaN. The structures calculated by Monte Carlo simulation of our formation mechanism are very similar to the experimental nanotip structures.

AbstractTiO2 anatase nanotubes synthesised via anodic oxidation were used as adsorbent for the uptake of U and Pb from aqueous solution and the photoremoval of As(III). An X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study of the sorbent medium surface revealed a high adsorption of U and Pb at pH 8. The adsorption of the uranyl ion was enhanced in an anoxy (N2) atmosphere, because this prevents the formation of very stable carbonyl complexes. As(III) was adsorbed on TiO2 but in the presence of O2 and UV light was oxidized to As(V). XPS analysis revealed that in the pH range 3-9 As(V) was always the major species detected at the surface of the titania photocatalyst.

We report on time-dependent Positron annihilation induced Auger Electron Spectroscopy (PAES) study on 0.5 monolayers (ML) Ni on polycrystalline Pd accompanied by complementary X-ray induced Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). The normalized PAES spectra showed a significant decrease in the Ni intensity and an increase in the Pd intensity as a function of time. To rule out varying influence on the elements e.g. from surface contaminates due to the residual gas, a time-dependent XPS analysis was performed on pure Ni and Pd as well as to analyze the main contaminants C and O. The O fraction was found to be constant within the measurement time and the time constants for C significantly differ from those of Ni and Pd in the PAES data. Consequently, it was concluded that the PAES data show a superposition of C contamination and structural changes at the surface of Ni/Pd.

ABSTRACTFor the first time the (1102) surface of sapphire has been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to ascertain chemical changes resulting from annealing in vacuum at 1300° C and 1450° C. As received substrates had a substantial surface C contaminant. For substrates that were chemically cleaned before inserting them into the MBE system no trace of carbon is detected. A residual flourine contaminant results from the cleaning procedure and is desorbed by the vacuum annealing. Spectra of annealed substrates are compared to the unannealed chemically cleaned substrates. The annealed substrates exhibit 0.4 to 0.5 eV shift to higher binding energy of the Al peak and a 0.3 eV shift to higher binding energy of the O peak. In addition, a 2% depletion of oxygen from the surface occurs.
