Efficient fog harvesting strategies have attracted increasing attention for addressing global water scarcity. In this study, a bio-inspired slippery surface was engineered by combining hydrophilic-hydrophobic patterning and lubricant infusion based on hydrophobic undecylenic-modified microcrystalline cellulose (UMCC) nanoparticles. The UMCC nanoparticles were synthesized using a dialysis-spraying process, followed by UV-assisted patterning of the hydrophilic domains and infusion with a perfluoropolyether lubricant to create a stable, directionally modified slippery interface. The pristine nanoparticle surface exhibited strong adhesion and high contact-angle hysteresis, which severely hindered droplet removal. However, after lubricant infusion, the contact angle hysteresis was dramatically reduced, enabling rapid droplet mobility, similar to that of Nepenthes pitcher plants. The resulting surface exhibited excellent chemical and environmental stabilities over a wide pH range. Notably, the moderately hydrophilic amino-patterned surface enhanced droplet nucleation, coalescence, and directional removal, achieving an exceptional fog-harvesting rate of 532.8 +/- 85.1 mg/(hcm2), surpassing the performance of all unmodified controls. This study established a simple and sustainable platform for next-generation bio-inspired fog-harvesting and water-management technologies.
Hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC), as two representative phenolic isomers, are commonly present in aquatic environments and pose potential risks to ecological systems and human health. Their highly similar molecular structures usually result in close oxidation behaviors, making their simultaneous electrochemical determination difficult on conventional electrodes. In this study, durian shell waste was employed as a renewable carbon precursor to fabricate hierarchically porous carbon through carbonization followed by KOH-assisted chemical activation. The obtained DSC-PA-800 was further used to modify a glassy carbon electrode for the simultaneous detection of HQ and CC. Structural characterization revealed that the activation process transformed the compact biomass-derived carbon into an open porous framework with abundant pore channels, defect-rich carbon domains, oxygen/nitrogen-containing surface groups, and a high specific surface area of 1388.7 m2·g−1. These features provided more accessible electroactive sites, improved electrolyte penetration, and promoted interfacial charge transfer. As a result, DSC-PA-800/GCE exhibited distinctly enhanced current responses and well-separated oxidation peaks toward HQ and CC in neutral PBS. Under optimized conditions, the sensor displayed two linear ranges of 1–250 μM and 250–550 μM for both analytes, with detection limits of 0.31 μM. The modified electrode also showed satisfactory selectivity against common inorganic ions and phenolic interferents, along with good repeatability, reproducibility, and storage stability. In addition, reliable recoveries were obtained in river water and tap water samples, demonstrating its practical applicability for environmental analysis. This work offers a sustainable and low-cost strategy for converting durian shell biomass into functional porous carbon materials for electrochemical monitoring of phenolic pollutants.
In this study, a green catalytic strategy based on a deep eutectic solvents (DES) was developed for the efficient synthesis of urea diacetic acid. The effect of the formation of DES with different metal salts (ZnCl2, FeCl3, CuCl2, ZnBr2) was systematically evaluated by combining experimental analysis and molecular thermodynamic simulation. The results showed that the DES (Delta G =-315.06 kJ/mol) formed in a 1:2 mol ratio between urea and ZnCl2 showed the optimal catalytic activity at 353.15 K, with the product yield as high as 91.50 %, which was significantly better than the traditional non-catalytic system (35.59 %). IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy confirmed the characteristic peaks of the secondary amine and the carboxylic acid group in urea diacetic acid, and the structural integrity of the product was further verified by the Hinsberg reaction. Mechanistic studies show that DES reduces the reaction activation energy through a dynamic hydrogen bonding network, while the electronic effect of metal salts regulates intermediate release. The urea-ZnCl2 DES system has high catalytic efficiency and environmental friendliness under mild conditions (80 degrees C), and can be recycled, which provides a new idea for the green industrial production of polyurea materials. This study provides the theoretical basis and practical reference for the multifunctional catalytic application and green chemical process design of DES in organic synthesis.
Ionic liquids, as catalysts for carbonate derivatives, have high conversion rates and strong selectivity, and are environment-friendly. In this study, [HO–(CH2)2–mim]5[Ti(H2O)FeMo11O39] (IL-Fe) was prepared using sodium molybdate, TiCl4, and 1-hydroxypropyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide salt ([HO–(CH2)2–mim]Br). The products were characterised by IR, XRD, TGA, and UV spectroscopy, which showed that the structures were correct and that the catalysts were thermally stable. The synthesis of BISBC by IL-Fe-catalysed ISB was carried out and the structural characterisation and synthetic conditions of BISBC were optimised by orthogonal tests. The experimental results showed that four factors, i.e. feeding ratio, catalyst dosage, reaction temperature, and reaction time, affected the yield of the BISBC prepolymer in descending order. The optimum process conditions for the BISBC yield were defined: feeding ratio n(DMC) : n(ISB) = 5; catalyst dosage = 1.0 wt
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) hold great potential for carbon monoxide (CO) adsorption owing to their large pore volume, diverse periodic network structures, and designability. Machine learning is anticipated to provide optimization parameters for designing high-efficiency MOFs adsorbents, avoiding time-consuming experiments. Here, we proposed an ensemble-learning strategy accounting for multidimensional analysis of features to rationally design pore geometries, structural properties, and synthesis conditions of MOFs toward high performance for CO adsorption. The extreme gradient boosting model exhibited the best predictive performance (R2 > 0.95) under limited data set size. Porous characteristic was identified as a dominant factor in pristine MOFs. Prediction results illustrated that MOFs featuring one-dimensional, two-dimensional, microporous, and isolated pores were optimal for CO adsorption, with 0.4-0.6 cm3/g total pore volume. This enhanced adsorption capacity can be attributed to the shortened molecular diffusion pathways. The relative significance of structural parameters followed: space groups > geometry > topology. The optimal structural configuration involved space group of R3m, binuclear paddle wheel geometry, and scorpionate-like topology. Regarding transition metal-modified MOFs, incorporated Cu(I) demonstrated the strongest binding affinity toward CO, while Fe(II) and Ni(II) could serve as effective binding sites. This work offers a theoretical guidance for designing efficient adsorbents toward CO adsorption.
变压吸附(PSA)是一个多步骤耦合的周期性循环动态过程,吸附床层中流体的流动状态对分离效率的影响规律尚不明确,深入探究不同流动状态下吸附床内流体的浓度场分布,对提高分离效率具有重要指导意义.本文基于Aspen Adsorption V12模拟平台,建立了一个描述多组分吸附、混合气体流动传质的四床九步扰动PSA模型,模拟甲硫醚/氮气分离,考察吸附床内流动相由层流向湍流过渡过程中湍动程度对分离效果的影响.结果表明,当雷诺数在800~1200范围内,增强流动相湍动程度可以有效提高分离性能.当PSA吸附过程中流动相由过渡流转变为完全湍流状态时,以甲硫醚含量2000mL/L的氮气为原料,产品气中甲硫醚从20mL/L脱除至8mL/L,氮气收率由93.3%降至86.9%.本研究表明,在一定范围内增强湍动有利于提高分离效果,但流速过高会造成吸附剂流化,从而失去有效的吸附分离能力.因此,PSA工艺实际应用中应综合考虑系统的湍动影响,强化分离效果.
Deep desulfurization from fuel has gradually become a research hotspot with enhancing requirements of envi-ronmental protection. CPO-27-Ni was considered as one of promising adsorbents towards adsorption desulfur-ization by virtue of its prodigious high pore volume and high specific surface area. However, the dominant microporous channels in traditional CPO-27-Ni hinder the diffusion of thiophene sulfide and its derivatives with relatively large molecular size, which limits its desulfurization efficiency. Herein, we proposed a strategy to reasonably construct defective CPO-27-Ni with micro-mesoporous structure using N, N-dimethyloctadecylamine (DMA18) as a template, aim at improving the diffusion efficiency by introducing meso-pores. Different amounts of DMA18 were introduced to synthesize defective CPO-27-Ni (DMA18-C-X) by solvothermal method, and DMA18-C-0.5 (the mole ratio of added DMA18 to Ni2+ was 0.5) exhibited a satisfactory desulfurization per-formance. The dynamic breakthrough adsorption capacities of dibenzothiophene, benzothiophene and thiophene over the DMA18-C-0.5 were remarkably promoted, which were as high 3.79, 6.45 and 9.29 times as the tradi-tional CPO-27-Ni, respectively. The crystal structure of CPO-27-Ni was not altered after adding template agent DMA18, while a uniform distribution of mesopores appeared. The largest mesopore attained a size of 2.8 nm, which effectively promoted the full exposure of more unsaturated Ni2+ active sites and enhanced the interaction between Ni2+ active sites and sulfides, resulting in strengthened adsorption desulfurization performance. This method of introducing proper defects to construct mesopores in MOFs provides some useful references for preparing high-efficiency desulfurization adsorbents.
As an efficient fuel purification technique, adsorption desulphurization has attracted wide attention. Silicon oxide has been verified as a promising candidate for adsorption desulfurization reagent due to the advantages of stable structure, inexpensiveness and accessibility. However, its adsorption desulfurization performance is always weakened by the limited pore channel size leading to pore diffusion resistance over the traditional microporous silicon oxide, and it suffers from the poor shape selectivity of mesoporous silicon oxide as well. In this work, we successfully prepared a novel super microporous silica material (SMS) with a unique bimodal micro-mesoporous pore size distribution mainly around 1.2 nm, 1.6 nm and 1.8 similar to 3.5 nm, using a pluronic triblock copolymer with approximately an average molecular weight of 3858 as template by hydrothermal synthesis. The SMS possessed the characteristics of Ia3d cubic phase and super microporous as well as mesoporous silica structure, according to the X-ray diffraction characterization as well as nitrogen adsorption isotherms. The SMS could effectively reduce the diffusion resistance and exhibit improved shape selectivity compared to microporous or mesoporous silicon oxide, respectively, by virtue of its bimodal micro-mesoporous pore size distribution. Under an optimized crystallization temperature of 100 degrees C for 24 h, the as-synthesized SMS displayed a notable desulfurization performance with a breakthrough capacity of 0.122 mmol S/g benzothiophene, which was significantly superior to that of traditional mesoporous silica KIT-6 (0.04 mmol S/g). Furthermore, the desulfurization performance of SMS adsorbent was not significantly reduced after three cycles of regeneration. The SMS exhibited high desulfurization capacity, easy regeneration and satisfactory regeneration performance, and it could be applied in adsorptive desulfurization technology.
Recently, the investigation of high-efficiency adsorbents for CO adsorption and separation has gradually become a research focus with carbon energy chemistry developing and environmental protection requirement enhancing. The adsorption performance of CO would be devitalized under a humid environment, although the traditional molecular sieves could serve as an effective adsorbent toward CO adsorption under an anhydrous atmosphere. In this work, a strategy of silanization modification was proposed to enhance the performance of CO adsorption by restraining the surface occupied by competitive water molecules due to the hydrophilic nature of silica hydroxyl groups on the 5A molecular sieves. A series of hydrophobic CO adsorbents (X-B-5A) were successfully prepared via impregnation using butyltrichlorosilane (BTS) as a hydrophobic agent, toluene as a dispersion solution, and commercial 5A molecular sieves as a raw material. The effect of different concentrations of BTS in toluene solution on hydrophobicity and CO adsorption performance was investigated. The results showed that the hydrophobicity of X-B-5A was significantly increased after silanization modification. Additionally, the water contact angle of 0.004-B-5A increased from 20 degrees to 154 degrees, and the static water vapor adsorption capacity was reduced from 27.5 to 6.0% at 35 degrees C. The CO static adsorption capacity of 0.004-B-5A still reached 1.54 mmol/g, which was only 14.6% lower than that of pristine 5A molecular sieves. Additionally, the dynamic adsorption capacity of CO over the as-prepared X-B-5A was significantly enhanced compared to pristine 5A molecular sieves in the presence of moisture. The as-prepared hydrophobic adsorbents exhibited satisfactory CO adsorption performance and high thermal stability in a humid environment. This work presents a novel strategy for the preparation of adsorbents toward CO adsorption employed under a high relative humidity environment.
