The detection and removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emerging as an important problem in modern society. In this study, we attempted to develop a new material capable of detecting or adsorbing VOCs by introducing a new functional group and immobilizing metal ions into a microfiber nonwoven fabric (MNWF) made through radiation-induced graft polymerization. The suitable metal complex was selected according to the data in “Cambridge Crystallographic Data Center (CCDC)”. 4-picolylamine (4-AMP), designated as a ligand through the metal complex data of CCDC, was introduced at an average mole conversion rate of 63%, and copper ions were immobilized at 0.51 mmol/g to the maximum. It was confirmed that degree of grafting (dg) 170% 4-AMP-Cu MNWF, where copper ions are immobilized, can adsorb up to 50% of acetone gas at about 50 ppm, 0.04 mmol/g- 4-AMP-Cu-MNWF, at room temperature and at a ratio of copper ion to adsorbed acetone of 1:10.

The initial characteristics of Romanian fly ash from the CET II Holboca power plant show the feasibility of its application for the production of a new material with applicability in environmental decontamination. The material obtained was characterized using standard techniques: scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area, and thermogravimetric differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). The adsorption capacity of the obtained material was evaluated in batch systems with different values of the initial Cu(II) ion concentration, pH, adsorbent dose, and contact time in order to optimize the adsorption process. According to the experimental data presented in this study, the adsorbent synthesized has a high adsorption capacity for copper ions (qmax = 27.32–58.48 mg/g). The alkali treatment of fly ash with NaOH improved the adsorption capacity of the obtained material compared to that of the untreated fly ash. Based on the kinetics results, the adsorption of copper ions onto synthesized material indicated the chemisorption mechanism. Notably, fly ash can be considered an important beginning in obtaining new materials with applicability to wastewater treatment.

The optical characteristics of copper ion detection, such as the photometric absorbance of specific wavelengths, exhibit significant intensity change upon incident light into the aqueous solutions with different concentrations of metal ions due to the electron transition in the orbit. In this study, we developed a low-cost, small-size and fast-response photoelectric sensing prototype as an optic sensor for copper (Cu) ions detection by utilizing the principle of optical absorption. We quantified the change of optical absorbance from infra-red (IR) light emitting diodes (LEDs) upon different concentrations of copper ions and the transmitted optical signals were transferred to the corresponding output voltage through a phototransistor and circuit integrated in the photoelectric sensing system. The optic sensor for copper (Cu) ions demonstrated not only excellent specificity with other metal ions such as cadmium (Cd), nickel (Ni), iron (Fe) and chloride (Cl) ions in the same aqueous solution but also satisfactory linearity and reproducibility. The sensitivity of the preliminary sensing system for copper ions was 29 mV/ppm from 0 to 1000 ppm. In addition, significant ion-selective characteristics and anti-interference capability were also observed in the experiments by the proposed approach.

Heavy metals greatly influence animal physiology, even at small doses. Among these metals, the copper ion is of great concern due to its effects on humans and wide applications in industry. Compared to atomic absorption spectroscopy and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry, which destroy the samples that are analyzed, optical techniques do not decompose the analyte and have become a popular field of recent research. In this paper, we combined a novel optical detector that did not require sample-labeling, called surface plasmon resonance (SPR), with chitosan to detect copper ions by modifying the functional groups of chitosan through pH modification. Compared to other optical detectors, the SPR system was relatively fast and involved fewer experimental confounding factors. The three-dimensional structure of chitosan was used to obtain lower detection limits. Moreover, modification of the chitosan functional groups resulted in efficient regeneration by controlling the pH. A detection limit of 0.1 μM was obtained (linear range: 0.5–10 μM, R2 = 0.976), and the specificity was certified by comparing the copper ion with six other ions. Additionally, we successfully regenerated the SPR chips by modifying the functional groups. In conclusion, the chitosan–SPR system detected copper ions with improved detection limits using a quick and simple regeneration method.

Abstract Our recently tailored and fully characterized poly (AN)-starch nanoparticle graft copolymer having 60.1 G.Y. % was used as a starting substrate for copper ions removal from waste water effluent after chemical modification with hydroxyl amine via oximation reaction. This was done to change the abundant nitrile groups in the above copolymer into amidoxime one and the resultant poly (amidoxime) resin was used as adsorbent for copper ions. The resin was characterized qualitatively via rapid vanadium ion test and instrumentally by FT-IR spectra and SEM morphological analysis to confirm the presence of amidoxime groups. The adsorption capacity of the resin was done using the batch technique, whereas the residual copper ions content in the filtrate before and after adsorption was measured using atomic adsorption spectrometry. It was found that the maximum adsorption capacity of poly (amidoxime) resin was 115.2 mg/g at pH 7, 400ppm copper ions concentration and 0.25 g adsorbent at room temperature. The adsorption, kinetics and isothermal study of the process is scrutinized using different variables, such as pH, contact time, copper ion concentration and adsorbent dosage. Different kinetics models comprising the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order have been applied to the experimental data to envisage the adsorption kinetics. It was found from kinetic study that pseudo-second-order rate equation was better than pseudo-first-order supporting the formation of chemisorption process. While, in case of isothermal study, the examination of calculated correlation coefficient (R2) values showed that the Langmuir model provide the best fit to experimental data than Freundlich one.

Abstract Carbon charcoal was made from rambutan rods and used as an adsorbent. A gram 70/100 mesh size of adsorbent was then used to adsorb 100 ml of copper ion solution with a 70 ppm concentration. In this investigation, the batch procedure was used without shaking (naturally). The charcoal carbon rambutan ability to remove the copper ion was measured by AAS. The percentage result was 48,135% or about 33,694 ppm. SEM and EDX instrument analysis have applied to confirm the presence of copper ions on the adsorbent surface. The copper ion was found at a concentration of 0.09 percent of the total weight. The carbon charcoal adsorbent in rambutan rods has the ability to purify the water contaminated by metal ions.

Abstract The reactions of dialkyl t-butylperoxy phosphates (1) and alkyl t-butylperoxy alkylphosphonates (2) with cyclohexene in the presence of a catalyticamount of copper (I) bromide at 80 °C in benzene afforded the corresponding phosphates (3) and phosphonates (4) in 50 to 70% yield. The analogous reaction of 1 (R = i-C3H7) with cycloheptene also gave the corresponding phosphate (8, n = 3)in 71% yield. However, phosphorylated cyclopentene (8, n = 1) and cyclooctene (8, n - 4) derivatives could not be isolated because of their thermal instability, and only the corresponding 1,3-cyclopentadiene and 1,3-cyclooctadiene were obtained in 92 and 38% yields, respectively. Thermal decomposition of 3 and 4 in the absence of a solvent at 110-115 °C gave 1,3-cyclohexadiene in 70 to 90% yield. For identification purposes, compounds 3 and 4 were prepared from the corresponding imidazole derivatives 5 and 6 and 2-cyelohexen- l-ol (7).A mechanism is proposed for the copper ion catalyzed reaction of 1 and 2 with cycloalkenes.

Carbon aerogel (CA) has a rich porous structure, in which micropores and mesopores provide a huge specific surface area to form electric double layers. This property can be applied to the application of capacitive deionization (CDI). The adsorption effect of CA electrode on Cu2+ in an aqueous solution was explored for solving heavy metal water pollution. The CAs were synthesized by a sol-gel process using an atmospheric drying method. The structure of CAs was characterized by scanning in an electron microscope (SEM) and nitrogen adsorption/desorption techniques. The adsorption system was built using Cu2+ solution as the simulation of heavy metal pollution solution. The control variate method was used to investigate the effect of the anion species in copper solution, the molar ratio of resorcinol to catalyst (R/C) of CA, and the applied voltage and concentration of copper ion on the adsorption results.
