The influences of different catalysts added to the activated carbon were studied for reducing energy consumption and enhancing reaction selectivity while microwave irradiate activated carbon for removal of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. It was found that the addition of catalyst can lower the power of microwave needed for the same sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides removal efficiency to a large extent; moreover, different catalysts introduced would cause different effects, in which the zincous catalyst and manganese catalyst had more apparent catalytic effects, about 95% removal efficiency could be achieved under microwave power 420W. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was adopted to have a study of the microstructure of the activated carbon, and it is shown that some catalyst components do exist on the surface of the activated carbon

Abstract Activated carbon was oxidised with concentrated nitric acid and impregnated with urea to form nitrogen-containing groups. Such a support was impregnated with cobalt, copper or silver nitrates to obtain catalysts for the selective catalytic reduction of nitrogen oxides with ammonia. Infrared spectra confirmed the formation of carboxylic and other organic oxygen-containing groups during oxidation. Nitrogen-containing species resulted from urea thermal decomposition. The metal-containing samples were hydrophilic. Cobalt and copper were present in the samples as small Co3O4 and CuO crystallites, while silver occurred in the form of large metallic crystallites, as seen from the X-ray diffraction patterns. Low temperature N2 sorption revealed that all samples were microporous solids, and the chemical and thermal treatment did not change their textural properties. The copper admixture caused the highest NO conversion, but worsened the selectivity and thermal stability of functionalised carbon support.

The physicochemical properties, nature, and morphology of composite materials involving activated carbon, fly ash, nFe3O4, nSiO2, and nZnO were investigated and compared. Nature and morphology characterizations were carried out by means of scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Other physicochemical characterizations undertaken were CNH analysis, ash content, pH, point of zero charge, and surface area and porosity determination by BET. Experimental results obtained revealed that activated carbon, nSiO2, activated carbon-fly ash, activated carbon-fly ash-nFe3O4, activated carbon-fly ash-nSiO2, and activated carbon-fly ash-nZnO composite materials exhibited net negative charge on their surfaces while fly ash, nFe3O4, and nZnO possessed net positive charge on their surfaces. Relatively higher removal efficiency (>99%) of TBT was obtained for all the composite materials compared to their respective precursors except for activated carbon. These composite materials therefore offer great potential for the remediation of TBT in wastewaters.

In this paper, a novel and highly efficient hydroxyapatite (HA) carrier for cultivating hydrocarbon degradation bacteria (HDB) is introduced. The HA particles synthesized through a sol-gel method and different heat treatments were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and BET method. The microbial amount and activities of HDB cultivated on HA carriers were quantitatively investigated in order to assess their enriching capabilities. The results showed that HA synthesized at 550°C and the one without calcination could enrich HDB 3 and 2 magnitude orders more than the activated carbon, respectively. Mechanisms of bacterial enrichment on HA and activated carbon were also studied, and it is believed that the high bioactivity and the surface morphology of HA were responsible for the efficient reproduction of HDB. It is concluded that HA is a potential candidate to replace the conventionally used activated carbon as a novel carrier applied in the filed of bioremediation for oil contaminated soil.

Homoleptic eight-fold coordinated methylisocyanide complexes of W(IV) and W(V) have been prepared for the first time. The reaction of [NBu4]4[W(CN)8] with methyl triflate MeOTf gives [W(CNMe)8][OTf]4. The even stronger methylating mixture of methyl fluoride MeF and arsenic pentafluoride AsF5 in liquid sulfur dioxide SO2 is able to fully alkylate both [NBu4]4[W(CN)8] and [NBu4]3[W(CN)8]. The paramagnetic octakis(methylisocyanide)- tungsten(V) [W(CNMe)8][AsF6]5 is thermally highly unstable above −30 °C. All compounds have been characterized via single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and Raman, as well as NMR or EPR spectroscopy<br>

Abstract Because of their unique surface area and adjustable pore size, Metal-Organic Frameworks(MOFs) have been widely used in lots of research fields, such as catalysis, energy storage, sensing, separation. In this paper, as for the Knoevenagel reaction, UiO66 and other UiO series MOFs were synthesized and modified. UiO66 nanoparticles were prepared by one-pot method. 2-aminopyridine, 3-aminopyridine and 4-aminopyridine were used to prepare UiO66-2Py, UiO66-3Py and UiO66-4Py nanoparticles. UiO66-2Py, UiO66-3Py and UiO66-4Py nanoparticles were modified by activated arginine, lysine and glycine to synthesize UiO66-2Py-Arg, UiO66-3Py-Lys and UiO66-4Py-Gly. Finally, the obtained samples were used for the Knoevenagel catalytic condensation reactions of benzaldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate. In this process, the prepared samples and their intermediates were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR) and X-ray diffraction(XRD), which showed that the modification of UiO66 was successful. UiO66-3Py-Lys and UiO66-4Py-Gly showed high catalytic activity in the supernatant determined by fluorescence spectrophotometer, and UiO66-4Py-Gly showed the best catalytic effects at the volume of 0.4mL benzaldehyde.

Activated carbon (AC) was fabricated from carrot waste using ZnCl2 as the activating agent and calcined at 700 °C for 2 h in a tube furnace. The as-synthesized AC was characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis; the results revealed that it exhibited a high specific surface area and high porosity. Moreover, this material displayed superior catalytic activity for the degradation of toxic Rhodamine B (RhB) dye. Rate constant for the degradation of RhB was ascertained at different experimental conditions. Lastly, we used the Arrhenius equation and determined that the activation energy for the decomposition of RhB using AC was approximately 35.9 kJ mol−1, which was very low. Hopefully it will create a great platform for the degradation of other toxic dye in near future.
