“…The γ‐Al 2 O 3 support, Cu/Al 2 O 3 , and Ni 1 Cu 8 /γ‐Al 2 O 3 samples showed type IV isotherms, characteristic of mesoporous materials. The H3 type hysteresis loop is the result of capillary condensation inside slit‐like pores formed by aggregation of plate‐like particles . These features indicate that the mesoporous structure is not destroyed after the ALD or impregnation of Ni on Cu/γ‐Al 2 O 3 .…”

Bimetallic Ni1Cu8/γ‐Al2O3 catalysts were prepared by using atomic layer deposition (ALD) and impregnation methods. By combing N2 adsorption/desorption, N2O oxidation followed by H2 titration, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and temperature‐programmed reduction (TPR), we showed the differences in the physicochemical properties of the bimetallic catalysts between the two methods. The results indicated that the sample prepared by the ALD method has a higher CH3OH yield (1.5 mmol g−1 h−1) than the sample obtained by the impregnation method (0.7 mmol g−1 h−1). The highly dispersed alloy particles and stronger interaction between Cu and Ni are the key factors for the enhanced catalytic performance of the sample prepared by the ALD method.

“…Similarly to other metal/metal oxide nanoparticles, Al2O3 has also attracted interest for many applications that include surface protective coating, catalysis, fire retardation and composite materials [104]. However, due to their high adsorption capacity, resistance to chemical agents, and excellent catalytic performance for many reactions [105,106] due to further increase in solution viscosity. In a similar study , Homayoonfal et al [108] prepared Al2O3/PES nanocomposite membrane blend for membrane bioreactor applications.…”

The engineering of novel membranes through fabrication and modification using engineered nanoscale materials (ENMs) presents tremendous opportunity within desalination and water treatment. In this paper, we present an overview of applications of ENMs to organic polymeric membranes and desalination. The review will examine the motivation for introducing ENMs into polymeric membranes identifying how the characteristics of the ENMs, such as high surface area to volume ratio and mechanical strength, can be used to optimise and tailor membranes for particular applications. The overview will include ENMs classification, incorporation strategies and how their properties impact on the surface characteristics, robustness, functionality, morphologies and antifouling properties of polymeric membranes. The review will also feature discussion on the current issues facing the development and commercialization of nanocomposite membrane that harness the benefits of ENMs.

“…The amalgamation reaction can be greatly enhanced by utilizing Ag in the form of nanocomposites. Such nanocomposites based on silica, magnetite, titanium oxide and alumina have been studied for the removal of heavy metals and mercury from water [15][16][17][18][19]. Among them, magnetite-based nanocomposites are being broadly studied for use in water purification owing to their low cost, simple application, and absence of toxicity towards the environment [20,21].…”

Magnetic Fe3O4-Ag0 Nanocomposites for Effective Mercury Removal from Water

In this study, magnetic Fe3O4 particles and Fe3O4-Ag0 nanocomposites were prepared by a facile and green method, fully characterized and used for the removal of Hg2+ from water. Characterizations showed that the Fe3O4 particles are quasi-spherical with an average diameter of 217 nm and metallic silver nanoparticles formed on the surface with a size of 23–41 nm. The initial Hg2+ removal rate was very fast followed by a slow increase and the maximum solid phase loading was 71.3 mg/g for the Fe3O4-Ag0 and 28 mg/g for the bare Fe3O4. The removal mechanism is complex, involving Hg2+ adsorption and reduction, Fe2+ and Ag0 oxidation accompanied with reactions of Cl− with Hg+ and Ag+. The facile and green synthesis process, the fast kinetics and high removal capacity and the possibility of magnetic separation make Fe3O4-Ag0 nanocomposites attractive materials for the removal of Hg2+ from water.
