Enhancement of azo dyes removal efficiency by using LDH/Tris/Pd catalyst: Kinetic studies

LDH/Tris/Pd (CaAl‐layered double hydroxide/tris (hydroxymethyl)aminomethane/palladium) was synthesized and appraised for its catalytic activity towards the degradation of two selected azo dyes. The decolorization of azo dyes, acid red 18 (AR 18) and reactive yellow 15 (RY 15), requires considerably small amounts of synthesized catalyst. Kinetic studies show that the catalytic decolorization of these azo dyes follows the first order kinetic model. The reported method is simple and applicable; in addition, the stable catalyst can efficiently decolorize model azo dyes with good recyclability. Therefore, LDH/Tris/Pd can be accepted as the possible component for the utilization in wastewater treatment.     

Unpredictable adsorption and visible light induced decolorization of nano rutile for the treatment of crystal violet

Photocatalysts containing different ratios of anatase and rutile are prepared via heat treatment of Degussa P-25 titania. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Bruuauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), ultraviolet–visible light diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS), Raman spectra (Raman), positron annihilation lifetime spectra (PAL) and temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) are applied to investigate the phase composition of the synthesized catalysts. Using crystal violet (CV) as the target pollutant, the unexpected visible light decolorization of rutile is observed. Despite the decreased specific surface area, the as-synthesized rutile samples exhibit much higher adsorption capability of CV than P-25 does, which in turn leads to improved photoreaction efficiency. Since the rutile samples can't absorb the visible light, the degradation under visible light irradiation is attributed to self-sensitization of CV on the surface of rutile.     

小麦秸秆发酵产生的真菌Pleurotus ostreatus IBL-02锰过氧化物酶的溶胶-凝胶固定化及其催化污水脱色(英文)

Solid state bio-processing of wheat straw was carried out through an indigenous fungal strain Pleurotus ostreatus IBL-02 under pre-optimized fermentation conditions. The maximum activity, 692±12 U/mL, of the industrially important manganese peroxidase (MnP) enzyme was recorded after five days of still culture incubation. The crude MnP was 2.1-fold purified with a specific activity of 860 U/mg after purification on a Sephadex-G-100 gel column. On native and SDS-PAGE electrophoresis gels, the purified MnP fraction was a single homogenous band of 45 kDa. An active fraction of MnP was immobilized using hydrophobic sol-gel entrapment comprising tetramethoxysilane (T) and propyltrimethoxysilane (P) at different T:P molar ratios. Characterization revealed that after 24 h incubation at varying pH and temperatures, the MnP fraction immobilized at a T:P ratio of 1:2 in the sol-gel retained 82% and 75% of its original activity at pH4 and 70 ℃, respectively. The optimally active fraction at a 1:2 T:P ratio was tested against MnSO4 as a substrate to determine the kinetic catalytic constants KM and Vmax . To explore the industrial applicability of P. ostreatus IBL-02 MnP, both the free and immobilized MnP were used for the decolorization of four different textile industrial effluents. A maximum of 100% decolorization was achieved for the different textile effluents within the shortest time period. A lower KM , higher Vmax , hyper-activation, and enhanced acidic and thermal resistance up to 70 ℃ were the novel catalytic features of the sol-gel immobilized MnP, suggesting that it may be a potential candidate for biotechnological applications particularly for textile bioremediation purposes.     

湿式氧化用于染料废水脱色:过去20年回顾（英文）

Wet air oxidation(WAO), a liquid phase reaction between organic materials in water and oxygen, is one of the most economical and technologically viable advanced oxidation processes for wastewater treatment, particularly toxic and high organic content wastewater. WAO is the liquid phase oxidation of organics or oxidizable inorganic components at elevated temperatures(125–320 °C) and pressures(0.5–20 MPa) using gaseous oxygen(or air) as oxidant. In the past two decades, the WAO process was widely studied and applied in the treatment of dye wastewater. Compared to conventional WAO, catalytic WAO processes have higher efficiency and use moderate reaction conditions. The catalysts included homogenous and heterogeneous types. The key points that need to be solved are recycling of homogenous catalysts and better stability of heterogeneous catalysts. In the present review, the technological processes are first introduced, then some research history and hotspots of WAO research are presented, and finally, its application in the treatment of dye wastewater in the past two decades is summarized to reveal the impressive changes in modes, trends, and conditions used. The application includes model pollutant studies and wastewater tests.

Decolorization Reactions Between Chromium (VI) and Three Colour Reagents. Determination of Chromium (VI) by Flow Injection Analysis

Abstract

Chromium (VI) can oxidize and decolor three colour reagents, i.e. 1,8-dihydroxy-2-(4′-chloro-2′-phosphonophenylazo)-7-(6″.8″-disulfonaphthylazo)-3,6-disulfonaphthalene (RI): 1,8-dihydroxy-2-(4′-chloro-2′-phosphonophenylazo)-7-(4″-sulfonamidephenylazo)-3,6-disulfonaphthalene (RII): and 1,8-dihydroxy-2-(4′-chloro-2′-phosphonophenylazo)-7-(p-hippuric acid azo)-3,6-disulfonaphthalene (RIII). Loss of absorbance of three colour reagents at maximum absorption wavelengths is proportional to the concentration of chromium (VI) in solution. We have made use of the decolorization reactions between chromium (VI) and three colour reagents to determine chromium in steel by flow injection analysis, and relative error in sample determination is less than 5.0%. Response is linear from 0.84 to 6.72 μg/mL and optimum measuring acidity is 1.3–1.7 mol/L H₂SO₄ in three systems. The effect of interference ions on determination has been studied.

Transformation of textile dyes by white-rot fungus Trametes versicolor

We have investigated transformation of eight industrial dyes by a whiterot fungus, Trametes versicolor. The fungus was found to decolorize Reactive Golden Yellow R, Procion Red, Reactive Violet 5, Reactive Blue 28, and Ponceau Red 4R at an initial dye concentration of 80 ppm within 72 h of incubation, whereas it took 5 d to completely decolorize Reactive Black 5 (40 ppm). However, it did not significantly decolorize Reactive Red 152 and Novatic Blue BC S/D. During decolorization in liquid medium, laccase and manganese-independent peroxidase (MiP) activities were detected in culture filtrate of T. versicolor. Dye-decolorizing activity of the culture was found to be associated with H₂O₂-dependent activity of the culture filtrate. Furthermore, dye-decolorizing activity of the culture filtrate was not influenced by Mn²⁺ or veratryl alcohol, thus suggesting a role of extracellular MiP in decolorization of synthetic dyes by T. versicolor.

Preparation for Magnetic Nanoparticles Fe3O4 and Fe3O4@SiO2 and Heterogeneous Fenton Catalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue

Dyestuff textile wastewater treatment has become a research hotspot due to its high chroma, poor biodegradability, and low toxicity characteristics. In this paper, we have synthesized magnetic Fe₃O₄ and core‐shell Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ materials by hydrothermal methods. These materials were characterized by XRD, TEM, N₂ adsorption‐desorption and so on. These materials’ heterogeneous Fenton has been applied to dye wastewater treatment. Methylene blue was used as a typical target of dye wastewater. Decolorization ratios of methylene blue were determined by different nanostructure composites catalysts. A serious of results of study showed that decolorization ratios of magnetic nanoparticles and core‐shell composites arrived at above 90 % under the weakly acidic or neutral conditions and room temperature. When these catalysts were reused, the results show that Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ materials were possessed with good cycle performance.
