This comprehensive experiment has successfully introduced the frontier of scientific research into undergraduate laboratory teaching. A magnetic Co/C nanocomposite was synthesized by using ZIF-67 as the precursor. Upon calcination at high temperature in inert atmosphere, ZIF-67 was degraded and carbonized to form Co/C nanocomposite. The adsorption performance of Co/C nanocomposite for Congo Red was investigated in detail. The structure and composition of the nanocomposite were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The concentration of Congo Red was determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometry. The kinetics data was fitted with the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The adsorption isotherms were analyzed according to Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. This experiment covers the synthesis of inorganic-organic hybrid material, characterization of materials, concentration determination of dyes, analysis of dynamics data and adsorption isotherms. Therefore, this experiment enables students to practice their experimental skills, increase their interest in scientific research, and broaden their professional knowledge. 相似文献

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and powder-activated carbon (PAC) were used as adsorbents for adsorption of nitrofurazone, a veterinary medicine, from aqueous solutions. The adsorbents were characterized using FTIR transform infrared spectroscopy, N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms, and scanning electron microscopy. The effects of initial pH, contact time, and temperature on adsorption capacity of the adsorbents were investigated. For MWCNT and PAC, the result showed that when the pH value was ranged from 2.0 to 10.0, the dosage of adsorbent was 0.02 g, and adsorptive time is 4 hours, the removal efficiencies for nitrofurazone were 96.8% and 94.7%, and the corresponding maximum capacities at 283 K were close to 50.8 mgg?1 and 59.9 mgg?1, respectively. For nitrofurazone, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model provided the best fit to the experimental data. The Boyd model indicated the mechanism for adsorption processes was mainly external mass transfer, while the effect of particle internal diffusion was relatively weak. Liu model could best fit to the experimental data of isothermal adsorption. The data of adsorption thermodynamics showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous. 相似文献
A new approach to stabilize carbon nanotubes (CNTs) in aqueous solution with a reduction‐responsive water‐soluble polymer is reported. The novel polymer synthesized by a controlled radical polymerization is functionalized with pendant pyrene groups capable of adhering to the surface of CNTs through π–π noncovalent interactions, and labeled with disulfide linkages to exhibit reduction‐responsive cleavage. Upon the cleavage of junction disulfide linkages in a reducing environment, water‐soluble polymers are shed, retaining clean CNT surfaces for electrochemical catalytic reactions.
The effect of pH on the adsorption of anionic dye Titan yellow on the activated carbon from aqueous solution has been studied. It has been found that the Zeta potential of the activated carbon has a great effect on adsorption capacity of Titan yellow. The kinetic and the thermodynamic parameters of adsorption as a function of pH has been evaluated. The mechanism for adsorption of anionic dye Titan yellow on the activated carbon has also been discussed. 相似文献
