钢渣对Ni2+与Cu2+的竞争吸附研究

将转炉钢渣磨碎筛分,从钢渣投加量、吸附时间、酸性条件等方面探究其对水溶液中Ni²⁺的吸附性能及吸附机理,并讨论Cu²⁺对钢渣吸附Ni²⁺的影响。研究结果表明,100 mL浓度为50 mg·L^-1的Ni²⁺溶液,用200目(0.074 mm)0.15 g的钢渣处理30 min,Ni²⁺的吸附率为99.88%。钢渣吸附Ni²⁺的过程符合准二级动力学模型和Freundlich等温模型。钢渣吸附Cu²⁺与吸附Ni²⁺属于竞争吸附,且钢渣对Cu²⁺的吸附能力优于对Ni²⁺的吸附能力。钢渣吸附Ni²⁺的过程以化学吸附为主,伴随着物理吸附,且随着钢渣表层吸附位点的减少,钢渣对Ni²⁺的物理吸附作用会逐渐减弱。该研究对处理工业含Ni²⁺与Cu²⁺的废水具有一定的指导意义。     

麦羟基硅钠石的可控合成及其阳离子交换性能研究

目前,开发绿色高效的重金属吸附材料受到人们的广泛关注。以硅藻土为原料,经水热法选择性地制备了2类硅酸盐材料即麦羟基硅钠石和方沸石。吸附测试结果表明,麦羟基硅钠石层间的钠离子能够与锂离子、镁离子、锌离子、钴离子、镍离子、铜离子等进行阳离子交换且能保持层状母体框架的稳定性。以钴离子、镍离子为例深入研究其吸附动力学和吸附机制发现,钴离子和镍离子的嵌入分别将麦羟基硅钠石的层间距由本征的1.56 nm减小到0.24、0.23 nm;室温下,对钴离子、镍离子的最大吸附量分别可达45、39 mg/g,均符合Langmuir单层吸附模型;钠离子的置换量大约是吸附的钴离子、镍离子量的两倍,证实层间离子交换主导吸附化学过程。因此,麦羟基硅钠石材料在多金属硅酸盐功能材料的合成以及环境吸附净化领域具有较大的应用潜力。

Stellerite-seeded facile synthesis of zeolite X with excellent aqueous Cd2+ and Ni2+ adsorption performance

Zeolite X was synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal method using natural stellerite zeolite as the silicon seed, and its adsorption performance for Cd²⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions was experimentally and comprehensively investigated. The effects of pH, zeolite X dosage, contact time, and temperature on adsorption performance for Cd²⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions over were studied. The adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous, and followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic and the Langmuir isotherm models. The maximum adsorption capacitiesfor Cd²⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions at 298 K were 173.553 and 75.897 mg·g^-1, respectively. Ion exchange and precipitation were the principal mechanisms for the removal of Cd²⁺ ions from aqueous solutions by zeolite X, followed by electrostatic adsorption. Ion exchange was the principal mechanisms for the removal of Ni²⁺ ions from aqueous solutions by zeolite X, followed by electrostatic adsorption and precipitation. The zeolite X converted from stellerite zeolite has a low n(Si/Al), abundant hydroxyl groups, and high crystallinity and purity, imparting a good adsorption performance for Cd²⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions. This study suggests that zeolite X converted from stellerite zeolite could be a useful environmentally-friendly and effective tool for the removal of Cd²⁺ and Ni²⁺ ions from aqueous solutions.     

The influence of the zeolitic support on the reducibility of incorporated NI cations

On a series of Ni---Y stabilized zeolite samples, differing in method of Ni²⁺ ions incorporation, Si/Al ratio and acidity of OH groups, the influence of the zeolitic matrix on the reducibility of Ni²⁺ ions was studied using temperature programmed reduction (TPR), i.r. and adsorption. The stabilized structure enables the reduction of Ni²⁺ ions even at an ion exchange degree of 6 Ni²⁺ per unit cell. The Ni²⁺ ions incorporated by impregnation of the zeolite with Ni-ammocomplex exhibit higher reducibility than those incorporated by ion exchange. On the partially dealuminated samples, the reducibility of Ni²⁺ is proportional to the Si/Al ratio. The reducibility of Ni²⁺ ions is suppressed by the presence of acidic structural OH groups in zeolite.     

Visbreaking of heavy petroleum oil catalyzed by SO/ZrO solid super-acid doped with Ni or Sn

SO₄^2-/ZrO₂ solid super-acid catalysts (SZ) doped with Ni²⁺ or Sn²⁺ (Ni²⁺/SZ, Sn²⁺/SZ) were prepared for catalytic visbreaking of heavy petroleum oil from Shengli oil field. The visbreaking reactions were carried out at 240°C and 3–4 MPa for 24 h using a heavy petroleum oil to catalyst mass ratio of 100 : 0.05. The effect of water content on viscosity of heavy petroleum oil was also investigated. Both catalysts can promote thermolysis of heavy petroleum oil and the viscosity was reduced from 0.319 Pa·s to 0.135 Pa·s for Ni²⁺/SZ and 0.163 Pa·s for (Sn²⁺/SZ) with visbreaking rates of 57.7% and 48.9%, respectively. After visbreaking, the saturated hydrocarbon content increased while aromatics, resin, asphaltene, sulfur and nitrogen content decreased. The presence of water was disadvantageous to visbreaking of heavy petroleum oil.     

The adsorption of coumarin at solid metal electrodes

The effect of coumarin on the “deposition potential” of a number of metals at solid metal surfaces has been compared with that at a dropping mercury electrode. These results have been used to interpret the adsorption of coumarin on different metal surfaces and to suggest that Tl⁺ and Pb²⁺ ions are specifically adsorbed on mercury and that Tl⁺, Co²⁺, Fe²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Zn²⁺ are specifically adsorbed on their parent metals.     

Ion-imprinted silica gel and its dynamic membrane for nickel ion removal from wastewaters

An ion-imprinted sorbent (IIP) was prepared by using Ni²⁺ as template, 3-[2-(2-aminoethylamino) ethylamino] propyl-trimethoxysilane as functional monomer, and silica gel as carrier. The adsorption performance of IIP towards Ni²⁺ was investigated. IIP showed a higher adsorption capacity than that of non-imprinted sorbent, and it also exhibited high selectivity for Ni²⁺ in the presence of Cu²⁺ and Zn²⁺ ions. Then, IIP was used to form a dynamic membrane onto the surface of ceramic membrane for treatment of electroplating wastewater containing Ni²⁺. Compared with ceramic membrane, IIP dynamic membrane had much higher steady membrane flux, and also rejected Ni²⁺ to obtain a lower concentration of Ni²⁺ in the permeate fluid. Perhaps it is suitable for future practice applications.     

Crystal structure of zeolite X nickel(II) exchanged at pH 4.3 and partially dehydrated, Ni2(NiOH)35(Ni4AlO4)2(H3O)46Si101Al91O384

Complete Ni²⁺ exchange of a single crystal of zeolite X of composition Na₉₂Si₁₀₀Al₉₂O₃₈₄ per unit cell was attempted at 73°C with flowing aqueous 0.05 M NiCl₂ (pH=4.3 at 23°C). After partial dehydration at 23°C and ≈10⁻³ Torr for two days, its structure, now of composition Ni₂(NiOH)₃₅(Ni₄AlO₄)₂(H₃O)₄₆Si₁₀₁Al₉₁O₃₈₄ per unit cell, was determined by X-ray diffraction techniques at 23°C (space group Fd , a₀=24.788(5) Å). It was refined using all intensities; R₁=0.080 for the 236 reflections for which F_o>4σ(F_o), and wR₂=0.187 using all 1138 unique reflections measured. At four crystallographic sites, 45 Ni²⁺ ions were found per unit cell. Thirty of these are at two different site III′ positions. Twenty of those are close to the sides of 12-rings near O–Si–O sequences, where each coordinates octahedrally to two framework oxygens, to three water molecules which hydrogen bond to the zeolite framework, and to an OH⁻ ion. The remaining 10 are near O–Al–O sequences; only three members of a likely octahedral coordination sphere could be found. In addition, two Ni²⁺ ions are at site I, eight are at site I′, and five are at site II. Forty six H₃O⁺ ions per unit cell, 24 at site II′ and 22 at site II, each hydrogen bond triply to six rings of the zeolite framework. Each of the 22 H₃O⁺ ions also hydrogen bonds to a H₂O molecule that coordinates to a site III′ Ni²⁺ ion. Six of the eight sodalite cages each contain four H₃O⁺ ions at site II′; the remaining two each contains a tetrahedral orthoaluminate anion at its center. Each tetrahedral face of each orthoaluminate ion is centered by a site I′ Ni²⁺ ion to give two Ni₄AlO₄ clusters. The five site II Ni²⁺ ions each coordinate to a OH⁻ ion. With 46 H₃O⁺ ions per unit cell, the great tendency of hydrated Ni²⁺ to hydrolyze within zeolite X is demonstrated. With a relatively weak single-crystal diffraction pattern, with dealumination of the zeolite framework, and with an apparent decrease in long-range Si/Al ordering likely due to the formation of antidomains, this crystal like others treated with hydrolyzing cations appears to have been damaged by Ni²⁺ exchange and partial dehydration.     

Nickel(II) ion-intercalated MXene membranes for enhanced H2/CO2 separation

Hydrogen fuel has been embraced as a potential long-term solution to the growing demand for clean energy. A membrane-assisted separation is promising in producing high-purity H₂. Molecular sieving membranes (MSMs) are endowed with high gas selectivity and permeability because their well-defined micropores can facilitate molecular exclusion, diffusion, and adsorption. In this work, MXene nanosheets intercalated with Ni²⁺ were assembled to form an MSM supported on Al₂O₃ hollow fiber via a vacuum-assisted filtration and drying process. The prepared membranes showed excellent H₂/CO₂ mixture separation performance at room temperature. Separation factor reached 615 with a hydrogen permeance of 8.35 × 10⁻⁸ mol·m⁻²·s⁻¹·Pa⁻¹. Compared with the original Ti₃C₂T_x/Al₂O₃ hollow fiber membranes, the permeation of hydrogen through the Ni²⁺-Ti₃C₂T_x/Al₂O₃ membrane was considerably increased, stemming from the strong interaction between the negatively charged MXene nanosheets and Ni²⁺. The interlayer spacing of MSMs was tuned by Ni²⁺. During 200-hour testing, the resultant membrane maintained an excellent gas separation without any substantial performance decline. Our results indicate that the Ni²⁺ tailored Ti₃C₂T_x/Al₂O₃ hollow fiber membranes can inspire promising industrial applications.     

金属离子催化葡萄糖异构化和脱水反应特性研究

以金属氯化物为催化剂，研究金属离子对葡萄糖异构化和脱水反应的催化特性。考察金属离子种类、用量和温度对反应过程的影响，用动力学模型拟合实验数据，定量分析金属离子的催化规律。葡萄糖脱水制备HMF的反应是一个串联反应，基于此机理构建的动力学模型能准确描述各组分浓度随时间的变化。Ni²⁺、Cr³⁺和Sn⁴⁺具有良好的催化活性，但3种金属离子呈现不同的催化特性。Sn⁴⁺的葡萄糖转化速率最快，Ni²⁺最慢，但Sn⁴⁺的副反应速率常数是Ni²⁺的约20倍。实验范围内，增加Ni²⁺用量，葡萄糖异构化和副反应速率加快，但对果糖脱水过程没有催化活性。增加Cr³⁺用量能显著提升葡萄糖异构化速率，对其它反应影响不大。随着Sn⁴⁺用量的增大，各步反应速率均加快，但整个反应过程中的副反应的严重程度有所降低。反应速率常数随温度的变化规律遵循Arrhenius模型，对Ni²⁺而言，升高温度更能促进果糖副反应的发生；金属离子为Cr³⁺时，升高温度有利于果糖脱水生成HMF；而对于Sn⁴⁺，升高温度则更有利于葡萄糖的异构化。

Highly efficient and selective membrane transport of silver(I) using hexathia-18-crown-6 as a specific ion carrier

Hexathia-18-crown-6 (HT18C6) was used as a specific ion carrier for the transport of silver ion through a chloroform bulk liquid membrane. In the presence of thiosulfate ion as a suitable stripping agent in the receiving phase, the amount of silver transported across the liquid membrane after 60 min is 99.5±1.0%. The selectivity of Ag⁺ transport from the aqueous solutions containing other Mⁿ⁺ cations such as Tl⁺, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, Mn²⁺, Co²⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Pb²⁺, Hg²⁺, and Cr³⁺ ions was investigated. Except with Hg²⁺ ion, non of the cations used interfere the silver transport, even at a Mⁿ⁺/Ag⁺ molar ratio of 500. The interfering effect of Hg²⁺ ion was successfully eliminated in the presence of EDTA at pH 5.     

Catalytic oxidation of sulfide ions over nickel hydroxides

The catalytic sulfide ion oxidation by oxygen to elemental sulfur over β-Ni(OH)₂ and LiNiO₂ has been studied. As a result of experimental investigation performed, a reaction mechanism is suggested which involves heterogeneous and homogeneous processes. Dioxygen activation in the heterogeneous process proceeds via a redox Ni²⁺ ↔ Ni³⁺ transition and participation of OH⁻ groups. The active HO⁻₂ species thus formed carries on the reaction in homogeneous phase. Nickel hydroxides are promising catalysts for practical application.

不同变质程度超微煤粉对重金属离子的吸附性能

重金属离子由于具有毒性、难以生物降解且可在生物体内累积,严重威胁人类的身体健康。吸附是去除重金属离子的一种可行有效的方法。本文选择褐煤、烟煤、无烟煤3种变质程度不同的煤种,通过高能球磨获得超微煤粉。研究了3种超微煤粉对水溶液中Ni²⁺和Cr⁶⁺的吸附动力学与热力学以及投加量与pH值对吸附效果的影响。结果表明3种煤粉对Ni²⁺、Cr⁶⁺的吸附量均随时间的增加而增加,并且Ni²⁺的处理效果明显好于Cr⁶⁺,在180min时褐煤、无烟煤与烟煤对Ni²⁺、Cr⁶⁺的吸附量分别为3.906mg/g、3.582mg/g、2.983mg/g和1.953mg/g、1.774mg/g、0.487mg/g。3种煤粉对两种重金属离子的吸附均符合二级吸附动力学和Freundlich等温式,随着投加量与pH值的增加,去除效果增加,在相同条件下,褐煤的吸附效果优于烟煤与无烟煤。

Protein-derived nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon for efficient adsorptive removal of heavy metals

A nitrogen and sulfur co-doped carbon has been synthesized employing egg white as a sustainable protein-rich precursor. According to CHNS elemental analysis, N, S and O heteroatoms accounted for mass fractions of 3.66%, 2.28% and 19.29% respectively, and the types of surface functionalities were further characterized by FT-IR and XPS measurements. Although the carbon possessed a smaller surface area (815 m²·g^-1) compared to a commercial activated carbon (1100 m²·g^-1), its adsorption capacity towards Co²⁺ reached 320.3 mg·g^-1, which was over 8 times higher compared to the limited 34.0 mg·g^-1 over the activate carbon. Furthermore, the carbon was found to be an efficient adsorbent towards a series of metal ions including VO²⁺, Cr³⁺, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Cd²⁺. Combined with its environmental merits, the protein derived carbon may be a promising candidate for heavy metal pollution control.
