In this study, natural manganese oxides (MnO x ), an environmental material with high redox potential, were used as a promising low-cost oxidant to degrade the widely used dyestuff methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution. Although the surface area of MnO x was only 7.17 m 2 g −1 , it performed well in the degradation of MB with a removal percentage of 85.6% at pH 4. It was found that MB was chemically degraded in a low-pH reaction system and the degradation efficiency correlated negatively with the pH value (4–8) and initial concentration of MB (10–50 mg l −1 ), but positively with the dosage of MnO x (1–5 g l −1 ). The degradation of MB fitted well with the second-order kinetics. Mathematical models were also built for the correlation of the kinetic constants with the pH value, the initial concentration of MB and the dosage of MnO x . Furthermore, several transformation products of MB were identified with HPLC-MS, which was linked with the bond energy theory to reveal that the degradation was initiated with demethylation.

Diesel Degradation

Nanoscale titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been fabricated through a sound sol-gel method at room temperature with Tetra-n-butyl Titanate as the precursor, and the particles are characterized by XRD and TEM techniques. The results manifest that the as-prepared TiO2 is amorphous with the anatase structure and its size is around 33.2nm. Five factors, including dosage of TiO2, initial concentration of diesel, pH value, photocatalytic degradation reaction time and the presence of H2O2, are considered in the diesel degradation experiments. An orthogonal test is carried out to optimize the photocatalytic degradation of diesel pollutants based on the single-factor experiments. It reveals that when the dosage of TiO2 is 1.0g/L, the initial concentration of diesel is 0.5g/L, pH value is 6, the reaction time is 4h and the H2O2 dosage is 0.09%, the removal rate of diesel pollutants can up to 88%. Besides, the influence of each factor on removing diesel can be arranged in decreasing order: initial concentration of diesel> photocatalytic reaction time> pH value> TiO2 dosage> H2O2 dosage.

A MoS2/TiO2 composite was synthesized and its photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue was evaluated. The results showed that the nano-MoS2/TiO2 composite presented excellent photocatalytic properties in the degradation reaction of methylene blue, which was ascribed to the good absorption of nano-MoS2/TiO2 in the visible light region. The decoloration rate of methylene blue solution was influenced by the dosage of nano-MoS2/TiO2 and the initial concentration of methylene blue. However, both the pH value and the degradation temperature had negligible effects on the decoloration rate of methylene blue. Moreover, the nano-MoS2/TiO2 composite as the degradation catalyst of methylene blue was of good regeneration properties.

The composite was prepared with montmorillonite (MMT) and poly(γ-glutamic acid) (γ-PGA). Applied the composite as the sorbent, methylene blue as the adsorbate, the influences of the initial concentrations of methylene blue, adsorption time and pH values of the solution on the adsorption capacity of methylene blue by the composite were studied. The experimental results showed that the adsorption capacity of methylene blue by MMT/γ-PGA composite both increased with the increasing of initial concentration of methylene blue and the prolonging of adsorption time, and then approached saturation respectively. The adsorption capacity of methylene blue by MMT/γ-PGA composite increased with the increasing of pH values of methylene blue solution. Meanwhile, the study of adsorption mechanism demonstrated that the adsorption of methylene blue by MMT/γ-PGA composite was Langmuir type, and the adsorption equation wasΓ=0.204c/(1+0.381C).

Sea water joining diesel was selected to prepare simulated marine oil pollution. With the target of removing diesel from seawater, the influence of various factors on the laccase-catalyzed degradation process was discussed. The experimental results show that the laccase-catalyzed degradation process was significantly affected by laccase dosage, reaction temperature, reaction time, pH of the solution and initial concentration of diesel in the oily wastewater. A systematic optimization study was carried out through a orthogonal test on the basis of the results of the single-factor experiments,and the optimum reaction conditions of laccase catalytic degradation diesel pollutants in seawater was determined. The results indicate that under the conditions of diesel initial concentration of 0.1g/L, laccase dosage of 8mg/L, pH value of 6, the reaction temperature of 25°C and the reaction time of 4h, laccase catalytic degradation rate of diesel pollution can be up to 63.85%.

Methylene blue (MB) dye is an environmental contaminant that has been mostly used in textile industry. Taguchi orthogonal array design was employed as an optimization method to reduce the number of experiments. In this research, bone char ash modified by MgO-Fe catalyst was applied for degradation of MB in catalytic ozonation process (COP) system and operational parameters including initial MB dosages, initial pH, catalyst dose, and contact time were optimized with Taguchi method. Accordingly, the best condition for the removal of MB obtained at initial MB concentration of 20 mg/L, reaction time of 15 minutes, initial pH value of 10, and catalyst concentration of 0.1 g/L. Additionally, optimization of experimental set-up showed that the MB concentration had a notable effect on MB degradation in COP process (55.6%), and reaction time had a negligible effect (1.98%). At this condition, total organic carbon (TOC) removal was determined to be 31% but in longer time, its removal increased to 65%.

Abstract Novel bio-composite films based on Algerian earth chestnut i.e. Bunium incrassatum roots (Talghouda, TG) and cellulose derivatives (ethylcellulose; EC and cellulose acetate; AC) are prepared and tested for methylene blue (MB) adsorption from aqueous solutions. The biomaterial films are elaborated by dissolution solvent evaporation technique and are characterized by infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, SEM and optical microscopy. The pHpzc is also determined. For the adsorption tests, design of experiments based on 23 factorial design is built and followed. So, the effects of TG:EC:AC ratio, pH and MB initial concentration are discussed on the basis of mathematical modelling using Minitab software. Mathematical relations between equilibrium adsorption percentages and capacities versus selected variables were obtained and illustrated by surface plots. The interactive effects between variables have been also identified. The results showed that the MB adsorption percentage exceeded 83% and is mostly affected by pH value. Nevertheless the adsorption capacity is affected by MB initial concentration.

Doped Zno

Zinc Oxide (ZnO) is a potential semiconductor as photocatalyst. Nevertheless, its main absorbance wavelength is in the range of UV light, which consist only a small proportion of solar. In order to utilizing the large proportion of solar light, pure ZnO and Li-doped ZnO nanoparticles with different Li loading (1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 at%) and various calcination temperature (300, 500, 700, 900°C) were synthesized through a co-precipitation method and characterized by XRD and TEM techniques. The photocatalytic abilities of photocatalysts are evaluated in simulated experiments of removing diesel pollutants in seawater under visible illumination. Six factors, Li loadings, calcination temperature, dosage of photocatalyst, reaction time, diesel initial concentration, and pH value of seawater, were taken into consideration in the process of phtotcatalytic degradation of diesel experiments under visible light. An orthogonal experiment was implemented to investigate the best combination of five factors (the factor of reaction time was excluded) which can lead to the highest diesel removal rate. The characterization of as-prepared nano-particles showed that Li element was doped into ZnO, and all particles were of hexagonal wurtzite structure. The average crystal sizes of Li-doped ZnO with various calcination temperature (300, 500, 700 and 900°C) are 15.03, 25.97, 48.63 and 55.48nm, respectively, and consequently, higher calcination temperature will contribute to the aggregation of particles. Doping Li appropriately can improve the photocatalystic ability of ZnO under visible light, which can deduce from the single-factor experiments. Calcination temperature is also an evident factor to affect the photocatalytic ability of photocatalyst. The influence order of factors in decreasing order can also be obtain through the orthogonal experiment and the result was as follows: calcination temperature > Li loading ≈ pH value > initial concentration of diesel > photocatalyst dosage. The best combination of the five factors is as follows, the dosage of catalyst 2.5g/L, initial concentration of diesel 1.5g/L, Li loading of catalyst 1.0 at%, calcinations temperature 900oC and pH value 8.25, the removal rate of diesel pollutants in seawater is expected to reach 77.31%.
