Abstract
Zeolite-based core–shell adsorbents are a promising new technology for removing toxic pollutants from aquatic environments. These adsorbents have a core of zeolite, a porous material with high adsorption capacity and selectivity. The outer shell of the adsorbent is made of another material, such as polymer, activated carbon, or metal. This structure provides several advantages, such as increased adsorption capacity, selectivity, and adsorbent stability. Zeolite-based core–shell adsorbents have shown great potential to remove toxic pollutants from aquatic environments, such as azo dye, heavy metals, and pharmaceuticals. However, there are still some challenges in the research and development of these adsorbents, such as developing simple and economical synthesis methods, improving adsorbent stability under different water conditions, and developing adsorbents that can remove multiple toxic pollutants simultaneously. Despite these challenges, zeolite-based core–shell adsorbents are a promising technology for removing toxic pollutants from aquatic environments. These adsorbents have the potential to provide an effective and economical solution to this serious environmental problem.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the Journal of Nanoparticle Research is to disseminate knowledge of the physical, chemical and biological phenomena and processes in structures that have at least one lengthscale ranging from molecular to approximately 100 nm (or submicron in some situations), and exhibit improved and novel properties that are a direct result of their small size.
Nanoparticle research is a key component of nanoscience, nanoengineering and nanotechnology.
The focus of the Journal is on the specific concepts, properties, phenomena, and processes related to particles, tubes, layers, macromolecules, clusters and other finite structures of the nanoscale size range. Synthesis, assembly, transport, reactivity, and stability of such structures are considered. Development of in-situ and ex-situ instrumentation for characterization of nanoparticles and their interfaces should be based on new principles for probing properties and phenomena not well understood at the nanometer scale. Modeling and simulation may include atom-based quantum mechanics; molecular dynamics; single-particle, multi-body and continuum based models; fractals; other methods suitable for modeling particle synthesis, assembling and interaction processes. Realization and application of systems, structures and devices with novel functions obtained via precursor nanoparticles is emphasized. Approaches may include gas-, liquid-, solid-, and vacuum-based processes, size reduction, chemical- and bio-self assembly. Contributions include utilization of nanoparticle systems for enhancing a phenomenon or process and particle assembling into hierarchical structures, as well as formulation and the administration of drugs. Synergistic approaches originating from different disciplines and technologies, and interaction between the research providers and users in this field, are encouraged.
