Facile Synthesis of Luffa Sponge Activated Carbon Fiber Based Carbon Quantum Dots with Green Fluorescence and Their Application in Cr(VI) Determination
摘要: Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were prepared by a chemical oxidation method using lu?a sponge based activated carbon ?ber as the raw material. The obtained CQDs were well characterized. The ?uorescence quenching e?ect of Cr(VI) ion on CQDs was investigated. The results show that the addition of Cr(VI) changes the intensity of the ultraviolet characteristic absorption peak of CQDs, and causes static quenching of the ?uorescence of CQDs. With the increase in the Cr(VI) concentration, the ?uorescence of CQDs was gradually extinguished linearly.

Effective synthesis of nanoscale anatase TiO <sub/>2</sub> single crystals using activated carbon template to enhance the photodegradation of crystal violet
摘要: Nanoscale anatase TiO2 single crystals were successfully synthesized using three kinds of activated carbon (AC) templates through a simple sol–gel method. The optimal photocatalyst (T‐WOAC) was obtained using wood‐based AC template. X‐ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analyses revealed that T‐WOAC possessed a small crystallite size of 8.7 nm and a clear mesoporous structure. The photocatalytic properties of samples were then evaluated through photodegradation of crystal violet (CV). Results implied that the photocatalysts prepared using the AC templates exhibited superior photocatalytic activity to that of the original TiO2. This enhancement may be due to the small crystallite size, large specific surface area and pore volume of the catalysts prepared with ACs. T‐WOAC showed high photocatalytic activity, CV degradation of 99.01% after 120 min of irradiation and k = 0.03914 min?1, which is 3.9 times higher than that of the original TiO2 (k = 0.00994 min?1). This result can be mainly attributed to the application of WOAC with moderate specific surface area and pore volume to produce T‐WOAC. Alkaline conditions benefitted the photodegradation of CV over photocatalysts. This work proposes a possible degradation mechanism of CV and indicates that the fabricated photocatalysts can be used to effectively remove CV from aqueous solutions.

Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue and Phenol Using TiO2/Activated-Carbon Composite Catalysts
摘要: Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue and phenol were conducted separately in aqueous solutions using titania-activated carbon composites. Activated carbon composites of different textural features and light of different wavelength or energy were used in order explore their effects on the performance of titania-activated carbon catalysts. The catalysts (TiAC1, TiAC2 and TiAC3) were prepared by impregnating activated carbon supports with an aqueous suspension of titanium precursor (TiO2). The catalysts were characterized using BET, XRD and FTIR. The diffraction pattern showed strong peaks that are assigned to titanium anatase phase and weaker peaks that indicated low rutile phase. The FTIR showed broad peaks of Ti-O-Ti linkages in TiO2 particles. The photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue and phenol was performed separately in visible light and UV irradiation of different wavelengths. Adsorption was dominant in the case of methylene blue removal while photodecomposition was more pronounced in the case of phenol removal.

Activated carbons with adsorbed cations as photocatalysts for pollutants degradation in aqueous medium
摘要: Oxidized activated carbon (AC) based on commercial coconut-shell carbon Aquacarb 607C has been prepared. This AC has micro-mesoporous structure and contains surface carboxyl and phenol/enol groups. Cu- and Co-containing ACs have been synthesized via ion-exchange in acid medium. According to potentiometric titration and XPS data, cation-exchanged forms of AC contain about 0.5% of metal ions. Such cation-containing ACs possess narrowed band gap compared oxidized AC as it is observed for doped oxides. Oxidized and cation-containing ACs have been tested as catalysts in photodegradation of dyes and phenol under UV- and visible irradiation. Initial oxidized AC is photoactive toward rhodamine B and methyl orange under UV illumination but inactive under visible light. For the first time it is shown that cation-exchanged forms of AC have enhanced activity towards rhodamine B, methyl orange and phenol in both UV and visible region. Therefore, the principal possibility of improving the photocatalytic properties of AC by introducing a minimal amount of copper and cobalt cations is shown.

Manganese dioxide nanoparticles/activated carbon composite as efficient UV and visible-light photocatalyst
摘要: Manganese dioxide nanoparticles/activated carbon (MnO2/AC) composites and manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2 NPs) are prepared through chemical reduction method. Morphological study shows that MnO2 NPs had cylindrical and spherical shape. The morphological study also revealed that MnO2 NPs were well dispersed on AC while neat Mn NPs present both in dispersed and in agglomerated form. The FT-IR study confirms the synthesis of MnO2 NPs. Zetasizer study presented that the Mn NPs had uniform size and below 100 nm in size and had zeta potential of ? 20 mV, which represent its stability in the suspension form. The synthesized Mn/AC composite and Mn NPs were utilized as photocatalysts for the photodegradation of Congo red (CR) dye. The degradation study shows that MnO2/AC composite degraded CR dye more efficiently than MnO2 NPs under UV and normal light irradiation. The efficient degradation of dye by Mn/AC composite is due to the synergistic effect between dye adsorption on AC and rapid photodegradation by supported MnO2 NPs. The results revealed that Mn/AC composite degraded about 98.53% of CR dye within 5 min while MnO2 NPs degraded 66.57% of dye within the same irradiation time. The recycled catalyst also significantly degraded dye which verifies its sustainability. The effect of catalyst dosage and initial dye concentration was conducted. The degradation rate of dye was found drastically faster in tap water (in presence of catalyst), which might be due to the presence of various mineral ions in the tap water.

Effect of Different Inorganics on Polyimide-based Bragg Grating Humidity Sensor
摘要: Effect of activated carbon and lithium chloride on polyimide-based fiber Bragg Grating relative humidity sensor has been experimentally investigated. Through dip coating process, organic-inorganic hybrid coatings were deposited on fiber Bragg grating to form different relative humidity sensors. Experimental results show that the addition of activated carbon or lithium chloride alone could increase the humidity sensitivity (1.67 times and 1.61 times, respectively), but the structure which contains both lithium chloride and activated carbon increases the sensitivity most (3.9 times). In the 14-day stability test, the fluctuation of pure polyimide sensor is ± 6.5%, while the ones of activated carbon sensor, lithium chloride sensor, activated carbon and lithium chloride sensor are ± 3%, ± 8%, and ± 1.6%.

Synthesis of multifunctional photocatalyst vanadium oxide/activated carbon via in situ utilization of stone coal ore
摘要: In this work, activated carbon (AC), vanadium oxide (V2O5), and V2O5/AC photocatalyst were prepared by in situ utilization of stone coal ore for the first time. The synthesis conditions for activated carbon (AC) and V2O5/AC were thoroughly investigated via orthogonal experiments and single factor experiments, respectively. The obtained optimal parameters could be directly adopted in practical application about utilization of stone coal ore. The optimal deashing experimental parameters for stone coal ore were: HF concentration of 15%, H2SO4 concentration of 15%, acid leaching temperature of 85 °C, and acid leaching time of 2 h. The as-prepared activated carbon from stone coal ore could be applied to the removal of methylene blue. The as-prepared V2O5/AC photocatalyst possessed a highly visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity for the removal of Rhodamine B (RhB) dye. The RhB degradation ratio could reach to 90.0% after only 3 h photocatalytic reaction. This photocatalyst would be possibly applied to treatment other organic dye wastewater. Actually, this work would extend the application field of stone coal ore. Most importantly, we hope the proposed new concept that in situ utilization of ore can be widely spread and applied.

From micro to macro-contaminants: The impact of low-energy titanium dioxide photocatalysis followed by filtration on the mitigation of drinking water organics
摘要: This study evaluated strategies targeting macro- and micro-organic contaminant mitigation using low-energy titanium dioxide photocatalysis. Energy inputs of 1, 2, and 5 kWh m-3 resulted in incomplete oxidation of macro-organic natural organic matter, signified by greater reductions of UV254 and specific ultraviolet UV absorbance (SUVA) in comparison to dissolved organic carbon (DOC). The rate of UV254 removal was 3 orders of magnitude greater than the rate of DOC degradation. Incomplete oxidation improved operation of downstream filtration processes. Photocatalysis at 2 kWh m-3 increased the bed life of downstream granular activated carbon (GAC) filter by 340% relative to direct filtration pretreatment. Likewise, photocatalysis operated ahead of microfiltration decreased fouling, resulting in longer filter run times. Using 2 kWh m-3 photocatalysis increased filter run time by 36 times in comparison to direct filtration. Furthermore, levels of DOC and UV254 in the membrane permeate improved (with no change in removal across the membrane) using low-energy photocatalysis pretreatments. While high-energy UV inputs provided high levels of removal of the estrogenic micro-organics estrone (E1), 17β-estradiol (E2), estriol (E3), and 17α-ethynlestradiol (EE2), low-energy photocatalysis did not enhance removal of estrogens beyond levels achieved by photolysis alone. In the cases of E1 and E3, the addition of TiO2 as a photocatalyst reduced degradation rates of estrogens compared to UV photolysis. Overall, process electrical energy per order magnitude reductions (EEOs) greatly improved using photocatalysis, versus photolysis, for the macro-organics DOC, UV254, and SUVA; however, energy required for removal of estrogens was similar between photolysis and photocatalysis.

Photocatalytic degradation of gaseous toluene using self-assembled air filter based on chitosan/activated carbon/TiO2
摘要: Photocatalytic filters are integrated with air purifiers and ventilation systems to remove volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from indoor air. However, the filters, generally prepared by dip or spray coating, are less stable as the deposited TiO2 NPs are prone to be blown off by treated air. In the present study, we propose a novel filter preparation method based on self-assembly of activated carbon (AC) and TiO2 on non-woven polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabric using chitosan (CS). The prepared filter (CSAT-PET) was characterized for morphological and chemical properties which revealed the homogeneity and chemical bonding of deposited TiO2. Photocatalytic activity of the prepared filter was evaluated for toluene degradation (200–600 ppb) under dark and UV illumination. Toluene removal efficiency reached 91% over CSAT-PET, while it was only 62% over pure TiO2 filter. About 40% of toluene removal was achieved by adsorption on CSAT-PET. Furthermore, CSAT-PET showed robust performance for selected face velocity ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 m/s and, the reaction rate followed Langmuir-Hinshelwood model. FTIR study identified benzaldehyde and benzoic acid as adsorbed intermediates. A UV-induced filter regeneration partially released the adsorbed species. CSAT-PET showed consistent toluene removal and intact morphology over five degradation cycles. The Box-Behnken design (BBD) in RSM was applied to optimize the filter preparation method. The optimum values of TiO2, AC and CS loading were 38.3 g/m2, 52.6 g/m2 and 2.06% (w/v), respectively which exhibited highest removal efficiency for toluene (93%). The proposed methodology can be adapted to fabricate low-cost, stable, and reusable photocatalytic filter for air purification applications.

Preparation of activated carbon nanotube foams loaded with Ag-doped TiO2 for highly efficient photocatalytic degradation under UV and visible light
摘要: Titanium oxide (TiO2) has been widely investigated as a photocatalytic material for degradation of organic pollutant in waste water. However, nanosized granular TiO2 nanoparticles are hard to be recycled and re-utilized in water and many cause secondary pollution of water. Hence, we constructed a foam-like photocatalyst, which was composed of carbonaceous support: activated carbon nanotube foams and Ag-doped TiO2 nanoparticles through a method of a template synthesis and carbonization strategy. The as-prepared photocatalyst evidenced to be hierarchical macroporous and mesoporous and exhibited remarkable photocatalytic performance toward the degradation of unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine under UV and visible light. The structure characterization and photocatalytic performance investigation confirmed that the enhanced photoresponse was attributed to the high efficiency of charge separation and the surface plasmon resonance effect of metallic Ag. The adsorption synergetic effect of the hierarchical porous structure also played an important role in photodegradation. The as-prepared photocatalyst showed great potential in the treatment of waste water containing organic pollutant.
