Geopolymer Paste

This study investigates the immobilization of Cd2+ and Cr3+ by using geopolymer paste based on PT. IPMOMI fly ash. The best composition of geopolimers paste was determined based on the highest magnitude of its 7 days compressive strength. Geopolymer pastes were prepared by varying SiO2/Al2O3 and Na2O/SiO2 molar ratio of the starting materials. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) were employed to examined these compositions. The molar ratio of SiO2/Al2O3 6.46 was found to produce the highest compressive strength of the resulting geopolymer paste, i.e 25 MPa and increased to 33.17 MPa by adjusting the ratio of Na2O/SiO2 to 0.65. Cd2+ and Cr3+ cations were added into geopolymers resin at the level of 1000 – 16000 ppm (mg/kg fly ash) and it was found to improve their compressive strength. The addition of 4000 ppm of Cd2+ increased the compressive strength to 38.6 MPa while the inclusion of 6800 ppm of Cr3+ reached 47.83 MPa. Further addition of cations reduced these values and the lowest compressive strength was observed on the addition of 16000 ppm of Cd2+ and Cr3+, i.e 8.65 MPa and 4.39 MPa, respectively. Leaching test was conducted by using Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and the distribution of heavy metal cations were examined by using SEM-EDX. The results showed that geopolymer pastes were able to immobilize Cr3+ at the studied level as there was no trace of Cr3+ detected after 6.5 hours of leaching. Geopolymer pastes were also found to completely immobilize Cd2+ at the level of 1000 ppm albeit the addition of 16000 ppm results in 6.26% leached out of this cation.

The incorporation of magnesium (Mg) in tricalcium phosphate (TCP) was prepared through a precipitation method followed by calcination at 850 °C in air. Calcium hydroxide, (Ca(OH)2), phosphoric acid, (H3PO4), and magnesium chloride (MgCl2.6H2O) with a Ca/P ratio of 1.5, were mixed as the precursor materials. The concentration of added Mg was varied with respect to calcium (Ca) precursor molarity as such Mg/(Ca +Mg) molar ratio was 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15, while the (Ca+Mg)/P ratio was maintained at 1.50 throughout the experiment. The influence of Mg-doped TCP on phase composition, chemical structure, and a functional group at different weight percentages were accomplished through X-ray diffraction (XRD), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses. Based in the results of this research, the presence of magnesium led to the formation of Mg-doped calcium-deficient apatite (MgCDA) at 80°C and Mg-doped β-TCP at 850°C; the incorporation of Mg into the TCP phase causing an expansion of the lattice and increase in the lattice parameter. This result could be considered rather unusual.

In this study, fly ash was obtained from Matla power station and the physicochemical properties investigated. The fly ash was characterized by x-ray fluorescence, x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Surface area, particle size, ash and carbon contents, pH, and point of zero charge were also measured. The results showed that the fly ash is alkaline and consists mainly of mullite (Al6Si2O13) and quartz (SiO2). Highly toxic metals As, Sb, Cd, Cr, and Pb as well as metals that are essential to health in trace amounts were also present. The storage and disposal of coal fly ash can thus lead to the release of leached metals into soils, surface and ground waters, find way into the ecological systems and then cause harmful effect to man and its environments.

Abstract This work focuses on the hydrothermal synthesis of Na-P1 zeolite by using a kaolinite rock coming from Romana (Sassari, Italy). The kaolin is calcined at a temperature of 650 °C and then mixed with calculated quantities of NaOH. The synthesis runs are carried out at ambient pressure and at variable temperatures of 65 ° and 100 °C. For the first time compared to the past, the Na-P1 zeolite is synthesized without the use of additives and through a protocol that reduces both temperatures and synthesis times. The synthesis products are analysed by X-ray diffraction, high temperature X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. The cell parameters are calculated using the Rietveld method. Density and specific surface area are also calculated. The absence of amorphous phases and impurities in synthetic powders is verified through quantitative phase analysis using the combined Rietveld and reference intensity ratio methods.The results make the experimental protocol very promising for an industrial transfer.

Ag–W two-phase system was prepared by electrodeposition using anhydrous 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [EMIm]Cl ionic-liquid (IL) solution with AlCl3 in different ratios. The deposition took place outside the glove box with a continuous Ar stream over the electrolyte at 120 °C and a pulsed-like current regime. Resultant layers show areas of Ag and W with an overall W content with a mass fraction of w W   = 50% (mole fraction x W   = 36.9%). The phase composition of Ag–W layers was observed by X-ray diffraction, and the chemical composition was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy.

This study investigates the improved reactivity of a geopolymer based on a combination of fly ash and blast furnace slag (BFS) by the addition of silica fume. The geopolymer was synthesized by activating a mixture of fly ash, BFS, and three different types of silica fume with alkali activator. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) were utilized to characterize the reaction. The silicate structure was also analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. From these results, it was found that the replacement of fly ash with the silica fume led to a significant decrease in theQ4(1Al) and an increase in theQ4(2Al),Q4(3Al), andQ4(4Al). The Si/Al ratio of the aluminosilicate gel was relatively constant, ranging from 2.0 to 2.6, while the Si/Al ratio of the C-S-H gel increased with the addition of silica fume. Therefore, some of the Al dissolved from the slag contributed to the formation of aluminosilicate gel, and the remnant slag particles mostly participated in the formation of the C-(A)-S-H gel with a decrease in theQ2(1Al). The increase in the reactivity of slag caused by the addition of silica fume was attributed to the reaction of the Al in the slag with the silica fume.

A series of metal-loaded (Ru, Pt, Co) alumina catalysts were evaluated for the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane using tertbutylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant and acetonitrile or acetic acid as solvent. These materials were prepared by the impregnation method and then characterized by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES), H2 chemisorption, Fourier Transformed Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM), and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). All the prepared materials acted as efficient catalysts. Among them, Ru/Al2O3 was found to have the best catalytic activity with enhanced cyclohexane conversion of 36 %, selectivity to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone of 96 % (57.6 mmol), and cyclohexane turnover frequency (TOF) of 288 h-1.

Copper Chalcopyrite

AbstractIn the synthesis of copper chalcopyrite solar absorbers the chalcogen source is always supplied in excess due to its low reactivity. This paper describes preliminary work aimed at addressing this issue through plasma processing. An inductively coupled plasma (ICP) was use to activate both sulfur and selenium vapors. First, the thermodynamic arguments for using activated chalcogens are presented. Next, this paper describes the experimental ICP setup and its characterization using optical emission spectroscopy (OES). Stable discharges have been achieved with both sulfur and selenium vapors using argon as a carrier gas. The potential of this approach was demonstrated by converting indium films into In2Se3 and InSx. The indium samples were inserted into chalcogen-containing ICP plasmas. Through X-ray diffraction it was observed that chalcogen conversion was achieved in a matter of minutes at room temperature by plasma processing.

European solid waste incinerator plants still primarily use grate furnace technology, although circulating fluidized bed (CFB) technology is steadily expanding. Therefore, few investigations have reported on the environmental assessment of fly ash from fluidized incinerators. This research project aims to integrate information on fly ash derived from the combustion of municipal solid waste (FA1) and biomass (FA2) in fluidized bed incinerator facilities. Fly ash samples were comparatively analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) to study the mineralogy, morphology, total heavy metal content, and leaching behavior, respectively. The analysis revealed that the two types of fly ash differ in their characteristics and leaching behavior. The concentration of most of the heavy metals in both is low compared to the literature values, but higher than the regulatory limits for use as a soil conditioner, whereas the high contents of Fe, Cu, and Al suggest good potential for metal recovery. The leaching ability of most elements is within the inert waste category, except for Hg, which is slightly above the non-hazardous waste limit.

The effect of the powder quantity on the effectiveness of the mechanical alloying process using different ductile powder systems was studied. X-ray diffraction, inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy and energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry-scanning electron microscopy were the techniques employed to characterize the mechanically alloyed powders. Results showed that a same volume of powders, which represented different powder mass quantities for each system and composition, was used to mechanically alloy in an effective way in horizontal ball mills.
