Silicoaluminophosphate molecular sieves of SAPO-11 type (AEL structure) were synthesized by the hydrothermal method, from the residue of a fluorescent lamp as a source or Si, Al, and P in the presence of water and di-propyamine (DPA) as an organic template. To adjust the P2O5/SiO2 and Si/Al and ratios, specific amounts of silica, alumina, or alumina hydroxide and orthophosphoric acid were added to obtain a gel with molar chemical composition 1.0 Al2O3:1.0 P2O5:1.2 DPA:0.3 SiO2:120 H2O. The syntheses were carried out at a temperature of 473 K at crystallization times of 24, 48, and 72 h. The fluorescent lamp residue and the obtained samples were characterized by X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and BET surface area analysis using nitrogen adsorption isotherms. The presence of fluorapatite was detected as the main crystalline phase in the residue, jointly with considered amounts of silica, alumina, and phosphorus in oxide forms. The SAPO-11 prepared using aluminum hydroxide as Al source, P2O5/SiO2 molar ratio of 3.6 and Si/Al ratio of 0.14, at crystallization time of 72 h, achieves a yield of 75% with a surface area of 113 m2/g, showing that the residue from a fluorescent lamp is an alternative source for development of new materials based on Si, Al, and P.

The effect on the physicochemical properties of aluminum salts on the synthesis of γ-AlOOH nanostructures has been investigated in detail using a hydrolysis-precipitation method. X-ray fluorescence (XRF), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), were used to characterize the synthesized samples. The specific surface area, pore size distribution and pore diameter of the different γ-AlOOH structures were discussed by the N2 adsorption-desorption analysis. According to the results of the nanostructure, characterization revealed that for synthesized γ-AlOOH nanostructures from AlCl3 and Al(NO3)3, obvious XRD peaks corresponding to the bayerite phase are found indicating an impure γ-AlOOH phase. Furthermore, the nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis indicated that the obtained γ-AlOOH nanoparticles from Al2(SO4)3 of technical grade (95.0 % of purity) and low cost, possess a high BET surface area of approximately 350 m2/g, compared to the obtained nanostructures from aluminum sources reactive grade, which was attributed to the presence of Mg (0.9 wt.%) in its nanostructure.

Silica Alumina Ratio

In order to deal with the pollution of NO in cement kiln exhaust, the study of NO catalytic decomposition catalyst obtained much more attention. The effect of silica-alumina ratio on NO decomposition rate in cement kiln without other reductant was studied. The NO decomposition rate of catalysts with different silica-alumina ratio was determined by infrared spectrometer. And pore structures and the microstructure of the catalyst were characterized separately by BET surface area, nitrogen adsorption-desorption and XRD. The results show that silica-alumina ratio of catalyst was preferred to be 50 with the best NO decomposition rate when the temperature was below 300 °C. The catalyst with silica-alumina ratio of 60 has the higher catalytic activity when the temperature was higher than 300 °C, and the decomposition rate achieved 70% at 600 °C. XRD results shows the crystallinity of catalysts increased as the silica-alumina ratio increased. BET surface area and the cumulative pore volume of catalysts gradually increased, and the average pore diameter gradually reduced with the increase of silica-alumina ratio.

At present, most of molecular sieves (MCM-48) are prepared by using dual template agents. In this paper, the effect of different template agents on the synthesis of MCM-48 under the same conditions is studied. MCM-48 was synthesized by different combinations of templates (CTAB + TEAOH, CTAB + TBAB, CTAB + P123). The specific surface areas of them were compared under different crystallization temperature and different crystallization time. The results show that the specific surface area of MCM-48 prepared by CTAB + TEAOH is higher than that of other dual template agnets at the same crystallization time and temperature when the molar ratio of CTAB to another template is 9.

The physically-chemically bounded water is an important parameter directly related to the gain of mechanical strength during the hydration of cements. In this work, quantitative determinations of the physically - chemically bounded water of two types of belite cements, called FABC-2-W and FABC-2-N, were carried out by means of thermogravimetry analyses during a period of 180 days of hydration. The hydrated products were characterized by X-ray diffraction and BET surface area. Important direct quantitative correlations were obtained between the combined water and technological characteristics of cements such as the compressive mechanical strength or the BET surface area. TG measurements for hydrated FABC-2-W and FABC-2-N cements were carried out in flowing nitrogen on a TGA/SDTA 851 (Mettler) in the temperature range from 25 to 1100°C with heating rate of 10 °C min-1 and nitrogen flow rate of 25 mL min-1. BET surface area was measured using nitrogen adsorption at 77 K, on an ASAP 2010 (Micromeritics).

Modified Zeolites

Four naturally occurring zeolites were examined to verify their assignments as chabazites AZLB-Ca and AZLB-Na (Bowie, Arizona) and clinoptilolites NM-Ca (Winston, New Mexico) and NV-Na (Ash Meadows, Nevada). Based on powder X-ray diffraction, NM-Ca was discovered to be mostly quartz with some clinoptilolite residues. Treatment with concentrated HCl (12.1 M) acid resulted in AZLB-Ca and AZLB-Na, the chabazite-like species, becoming amorphous, as confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction. In contrast, NM-Ca and NV-Na, which are clinoptilolite-like species, withstood boiling in concentrated HCl acid. This treatment removes calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium, aluminum, and iron atoms or ions from the framework while leaving the silicon framework intact as confirmed via X-ray fluorescence and diffraction. SEM images on calcined and HCl treated NV-Na were obtained. BET surface area analysis confirmed an increase in surface area for the two zeolites after treatment, NM-Ca 20.0(1) to 111(4) m2/g and NV-Na 19.0(4) to 158(7) m2/g. 29Si and 27Al MAS NMR were performed on the natural and treated NV-Na zeolite, and the data for the natural NV-Na zeolite suggested a Si:Al ratio of 4.33 similar to that determined by X-Ray fluorescence of 4.55. Removal of lead ions from solution decreased from the native NM-Ca, 0.27(14), NV-Na, 1.50(17) meq/g compared to the modified zeolites, 30 min HCl treated NM-Ca 0.06(9) and NV-Na, 0.41(23) meq/g, and also decreased upon K+ ion pretreatment in the HCl modified zeolites.

Wool Keratin

The treatment of wastewater containing heavy metals and the utilization of wool waste are very important for the sustainable development of textile mills. In this study, the wool keratin modified magnetite (Fe3O4) powders were fabricated by using wool waste via a co-precipitation technique for removal of Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions. The morphology, chemical compositions, crystal structure, microstructure, magnetism properties, organic content, and specific surface area of as-fabricated powders were systematically characterized by various techniques including field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analyzer. The effects of experimental parameters such as the volume of wool keratin hydrolysate, the dosage of powder, the initial Cu2+ ion concentration, and the pH value of solution on the adsorption capacity of Cu2+ ions by the powders were examined. The experimental results indicated that the Cu2+ ion adsorption performance of the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders exhibited much better than that of the chitosan modified ones with a maximum Cu2+ adsorption capacity of 27.4 mg/g under favorable conditions (0.05 g powders; 50 mL of 40 mg/L CuSO4; pH 5; temperature 293 K). The high adsorption capacity towards Cu2+ ions on the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders was primarily because of the strong surface complexation of –COOH and –NH2 functional groups of wool keratins with Cu2+ ions. The Cu2+ ion adsorption process on the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders followed the Temkin adsorption isotherm model and the intraparticle diffusion and pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetic models. After Cu2+ ion removal, the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders were easily separated using a magnet from aqueous solution and efficiently regenerated using 0.5 M ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)-H2SO4 eluting. The wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders possessed good regenerative performance after five cycles. This study provided a feasible way to utilize waste wool textiles for preparing magnetic biomass-based adsorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions.

This paper highlights on the hydrogen production through photocatalytic activity by using hematite nanoparticles synthesized from self-combustion method based on different stirring period. The morphologies and microstructures of the nanostructures were determined using Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM), X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) and Particle Size Analyser (PSA). Besides that, surface area analyser was used to determine the BET surface area of the hematite samples. The hematite nanocatalyst as-synthesized are proven to be rhombohedral crystalline hematite (α-Fe2O3) with particle diameters ranging from 60-140 nm. The BET specific surface area of hematite samples increased from 5.437 to 7.6425 m2/g with increasing stirring period from 1 to 4 weeks. This caused the amount of hydrogen gas produced from photocatalytic water splitting to increase as well.

Metal Ions Removal

Ionic exchange of multi-components titanium tungstophosphate nanoparticles (TiWP-NPs) were prepared using sol-gel reaction of titanium isoperoxide and tungestophosphoric acid (TPA) in presence of CTAB surfactant. The X-ray, BET and TEM characterizations showed that the nanoparticles exhibit the characteristic structure of titanium tungstophosphate and a BET surface area of 74 ± 3 m2/g was achieved. The TPA has shown an effect on the self-assembly process and maintains the TPA content to minimum would be beneficial for obtaining higher surface area of TiWP nanoparticles. Metal ions adsorption of Cu(II), Pb(II) or Cd(II) using the resulting titanium tungstophosphate nanparticles materials is investigated and up to 95% removal percentage was achieved. Using this method, nanoparticles of ionic exchange titanium tungstophosphate can be synthesized in the form of powder and amenable to mass production.
