Abstract:In this study, the dromedary bone waste was valorized by the obtainment of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and its application to remove crystal violet (CV) dye from aqueous solution. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, elemental analysis X‐ray fluorescence spectrometer (XRF), particle size laser analysis, and the point of zero charge pH value (pHpzc) were realized to characterize the natural adsorbent. The capacity of HAp to adsorb CV was measured at different contact times, pH values, and initia… Show more

In glass industry, the evolved gases and fumes from burning the gas fuel absorbed in calcium hydroxide to minimize the pollution of environment. After a period of time, the calcium hydroxide fouled with sulphate and carbonate as action of the absorbed SO3 and CO2 gases. Based on our interest to treatment the solid waste materials, this study intended to convert the obtained waste of calcium hydroxide fouled with gases to valuable products. Firstly, this waste was treated with water, caustic soda and acids. The results confirmed the conversion of waste to pure calcium sulfate by treatment with 6 v/v% sulfuric acid. Secondly, the obtained calcium sulfate was reacted with ammonium dihydrogen phosphate solution for preparation of calcium hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles. The produced HAp sample was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and N2 adsorption measurements. The obtained findings confirmed that the HAp can be produced after calcination at 700 °C, nanorods-like of sizes ranged from 11 to 15 nm and with main surface functional groups of hydroxyapatite. TGA and DTA data indicated that HAp is thermally stable up to 700 °C. Also, the obtained HAp has Ca/P molar ratio of 1.60 and exhibited high total surface area of 146 m2/g with mesoporous structure which make this material can be used in medical and water purification applications.

“…This model is mainly used to determine the mechanism of adsorption on heterogeneous surfaces: physical or ion exchange or chemical adsorption based on the value of the mean adsorption energy ( E ) [ 26 ]. This model is represented by the following equations [ 16 , 27 ]: where ϵ is the Polanyi potential, β (mol 2 /kJ 2 ) is the Dubinin–Radushkevich constant, R is the gas constant (8.314 J/mol.k), T (K) is the temperature, and E (kJ/mol) is the mean adsorption energy.…”
Water is the most important resource for life, but it has been greatly exhausted over the past century as a result of the human population and environmentally harmful activities. The excessive quantity of dyes exists in the wastewater produced from the textile industries which is the main reason for serious human health and environmental problems. There are many dye removal techniques, and the most promising one is the adsorption technique. The novelty of this research is using unmodified synthesized hydroxyapatite (HAp) as an adsorbent for the removal of gentian violet (GV) dye from aqueous solutions as there are no sufficient data in the literature about using it in the adsorption of GV dye from aqueous solutions. Unmodified HAp was synthesized by a combined precipitation microwave method. The prepared adsorbent was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and zeta potential analyses. The kinetic study showed that the pseudo-second-order (PSO) model was the best fitted model with the experimental data. Analysis of adsorption isotherms using different models showed that this adsorption system was better described by the Halsey isotherm with a maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of 1.035 mg/g. The effects of experimental factors such as initial solution pH, initial dye concentration, adsorbent dose, and contact time were studied during the investigation of GV dye removal efficiency. The experimental results indicated that the maximum adsorption efficiency (99.32%) of the GV dye using HAp adsorbent was achieved at the following conditions: contact time = 90 min, pH = 12, initial GV dye concentration = 3 mg/L, and adsorbent dose = 1 g/L. The adsorption mechanism of the GV dye using HAp might be explained by the electrostatic interaction between the negatively charged surface of the HAp and the positively charged group of the GV dye. Thermodynamics study was performed on the adsorption process of GV dye from aqueous solutions using the synthesized HAp which revealed that this process was endothermic and spontaneous due to positive values of ΔH and ΔS and negative values of ΔG.

Section: Catalytic Properties Of Supported Aun Clusters Catalystsmentioning
Ligand‐protected gold (Aun) clusters sometimes need the removal of organic ligands to expose more active sites and reduce steric hindrance in catalytic reactions, and large amount of organic and inorganic materials usually need to be employed as supports to anchor Aun clusters through different interaction mechanisms. Whereas, less comprehensive summaries have been provided about the crucial contribution of various supports on the catalytic performance of the supported Aun clusters. Herein, this review firstly summarizes synthesis methods (e.g., impregnation and encapsulation processes) for the supported Aun cluster catalysts, and then mainly points out specific contributions of support effect in a great diversity of catalytic reactions, as well as deep interaction mechanisms. Besides, opportunities and challenging issues will be stated towards supported Aun clusters, in terms of improving catalytic performance and structural stability of Aun clusters in the demand of catalysis.This article is protected by copyright.
