Nanoporous SnO2with high photocatalytic activity has been successfully prepared by a photochemical method, using SnCl2aqueous solution as a precursor. The as-synthesized sample was characterized by XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption and UV-vis. The photocatalytic activity of the sample was evaluated by degrading methylene blue (MB) aqueous solution under the UV light source and was compared with that of the commercial titania (Degussa P25). The results showed that the produced SnO2can degrade MB solution quickly and has comparative photocatalytic performance with P25 for degrading MB. This facile method supplies an effective way to prepare SnO2photocatalyst.

This work compared properties and catalytic performance of two hybrid photocatalysts, TiO2/RH-MCM-41 and TiO2/TEOS-MCM-41 prepared by loading nanoparticles of TiO2 (10 wt.%) on MCM-41 synthesized with rice husk silica and tetraethyl orthosilicate respectively. The supports and catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption, transmission electron microscopy and zeta potential. The photocatalytic activities of the TiO2/RH-MCM-41 and TiO2/TEOS-MCM-41 for the degradation of tetramethylammonium (TMA) in aqueous slurry were similar with a complete conversion after irradiation time of 90 min at pH 7.

Ag2S nanorods and nonoparticles have been successfully prepared using chemical method. Silver nitrate with molar concentration of 0.1 M and thiourea with different molar concentration were used as a source of Ag++and S++ions, respectively. The pH of solution was in range of 10-11. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image showed that the nanorods length and diameter were 2.5-3 μm and 300-400 nm, respectively. X-ray diffraction results showed a monoclinic α-Ag2S phase was obtained. The atomic ratio of silver and sulphur were found using energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and it was 62.39% and 37.61%, respectively.

Blueberry (BB) and cherry pomace were investigated as new biosorbents for aflatoxins (AFs) sequestration from buffered solutions, gastrointestinal fluids and model wine. Among the tested biosorbents, BB exhibited the maximum adsorption performance for AFs and hence was further selected for the optimization of experimental parameters like pH, dosage, time and initial concentration of AFs. Material characterizations via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption isothermal studies, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray photon spectroscopy (XPS) techniques revealed useful information about the texture and chemical composition of the biosorbents. The fitting of isothermal data with different models showed the model suitability trend as: Sips model > Langmuir model > Freundlich model, where the theoretical maximum adsorption capacity calculated from the Sips model was 4.6, 2.9, 2.7 and 2.4 mg/g for AFB1, AFB2, AFG1 and AFG2, respectively. Kinetics study revealed the fast AFs uptake by BB (50–90 min) while thermodynamics studies suggested the exothermic nature of the AFs adsorption from both, single as well as multi-toxin buffer systems, gastrointestinal fluids and model wine. Accrediting to the fast and efficient adsorption performance, green and facile fabrication approach and cost-effectiveness, the newly designed BB pomace can be counted as a promising contender for the sequestration of AFs and other organic pollutants.

The mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolite containing MoCoP/Al2O3 catalyst (C12-ZSM5) with the mixture of Al2O3 and mesoporous ZSM- 5 zeolite as carrier was synthesized. The catalytic performance of C12-ZSM5 catalyst was evaluated by the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) of different diesel feedstock. The carriers and catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption-desorption, pyridine-FTIR, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and CO in-situ FTIR (CO-FTIR) techniques. Results showed that mesoporous ZSM-5 can improve the acidity of the catalyst and increase the number of MoCoS active phases. The C12-ZSM5 catalyst had low HDS and HDN activity, because the acidic sites of mesoporous ZSM-5 were easily occupied by nitrogen compounds. The HDS activity of C12-ZSM5 catalyst was fully exploited by using graded packing technology, the sulfur content of product oil was 5.9 ng/μL. The relative HDS activity of C12-ZSM5 catalyst is 1.47 times that of FHUDS-8 catalyst.

Abstract An inactive biomass of a new fungus recently discovered, Diaporthe schini, was evaluated for the biosorption of crystal violet (CV) in simulated textile effluents. The characterization assays were performed using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms. The influences of pH and biosorbent dosage on the biosorption capacity were evaluated. Kinetics, equilibrium and thermodynamic studies were also carried out. Characterization techniques showed an amorphous biosorbent, with a rough surface containing irregular particles and surface area of 6.5 m2 g−1. The most adequate values of pH and biosorbent dosage were 7.5 and 0.4 g L−1, respectively. The Elovich kinetic model and the Sips equilibrium model were suitable to fit the experimental data. The biosorption capacity increased with temperature, reaching a maximum biosorption capacity of 642.3 mg g−1 at 328 K. The biosorption was a spontaneous and endothermic process. Diaporthe schini inactive biomass was an interesting biosorbent to treat colored effluents, presenting efficiency of 87% in the decolorization of a simulated dye house effluent.

TiO2-graphene (TiO2-RGO) nanocomposites were preparedviaa simple chemical method by using graphene oxide (GO) and TiO2nanoparticles as starting materials. The morphologies and structural properties of the as-prepared composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, N2adsorption-desorption measurements, and transmission electron microscopy. TiO2-RGO nanocomposites exhibited great photocatalytic activity toward reduction of CO2into CH4(2.10 μmol g−1 h−1) and CH3OH (2.20 μmol g−1 h−1), which is attributed to the synergistic effect between TiO2and graphene.
