Additionally, the environmental impacts and estimated manufacturing costs of preparing QECFs were assessed through life cycle assessment and economic analysis. The QECFs demonstrated exceptional maximum adsorption capacities of 669.75 ± 47.20 mg/g at pH = 9.5 within 15 min, surpassing reported adsorbents in both capacity and rate.

However, their effectiveness is often constrained by low adsorption capacity and significant swelling in water. In this work, a novel porous starch-based ion exchange resin was developed to address these limitations. The ion exchanger was synthesized by modifying tertiary amines onto starch, followed by dual-network crosslinking in an emulsion system. The synthesis of this ion exchanger was systematically investigated and confirmed through comprehensive characterization. This adsorbent demonstrates an ultra-high adsorption capacity of over 1500 mg · g<sup>−1</sup> for water-soluble dyes, due to the introduction of weakly basic adsorption sites from the triazine-based modifier and melamine resin-based crosslinker, along with a porous structure that increases the specific surface area for adsorption. In dynamic adsorption–desorption studies with Reactive Blue X-BR as a model dye, the average desorption rate was found to be as high as 98.5 %, and the peak concentration of the dye in the desorbent was 32000 mg·g<sup>−1</sup>. The dual-network crosslinking and the incorporation of hydrophobic groups endow the resin with superior water resistance and a minimal swelling ratio (<15 %), which is crucial for maintaining consistent performance across multiple recycling cycles. Thus, the developed starch-based ion exchanger offers a promising alternative to petroleum-based ion exchange resins.","PeriodicalId":427,"journal":{"name":"Separation and Purification Technology","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143044812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These flow patterns correspond to the generation of vortexes, micro-vortices, and micro-holes, resulting in a cascade flocculation phenomenon with their respective solid–liquid separation mechanisms.

Chlorinated distillation has shown to effectively lower arsenic levels to just a few ppm, making it a promising method for arsenic impurity removal. However, many aspects of the deep separation mechanism of arsenic remain unexplored, posing technical barriers to effective arsenic removal in high-purity antimony production. This work introduces a “chlorine/oxygen affinity selective distillation” model to elucidate the mechanism underlying arsenic and antimony separation in chloride systems. Through thermodynamic analysis and quantum chemistry calculation, we demonstrate that arsenic species in different oxidation states exhibit markedly distinct affinities for chlorine and oxygen. The critical factor is the change in the solvation structure of As<sup>3+</sup> as it interacts with Cl<sup>−</sup>, while the strong binding affinity between As<sup>5+</sup> and oxygen inhibits chloride-mediated desolvation. Thus, HCl concentration plays a pivotal role in enhancing the separation efficiency of As<sup>3+</sup> from Sb<sup>3+</sup>. Experimental results reveal that increasing HCl concentration from 5 mol/L to 7 mol/L boosts arsenic removal efficiency by 5.7 %. This mechanism may offer broader applications for the efficient separation of similar elements in chloride systems.","PeriodicalId":427,"journal":{"name":"Separation and Purification Technology","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.6,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143044363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By utilizing S sites of metal sulfide as the “proton shuttle”, H<sup>+</sup> can be enriched from bulk solution to the local catalytic Fe center, which is expected to overcome the pH limitation of conventional Fenton-like reactions.

Published data from experiments and molecular simulations reveal scenarios in which the Ideal Adsorbed Solution Theory (IAST) fails to provide a quantitative description of mixture adsorption equilibrium. The failure of the IAST is ascribable to non-compliance with one or more tenets mandated by the IAST such as (a) homogeneous distribution of adsorbates within the pore landscape, (b) no preferential location of guest species, and (c) absence of molecular clustering due to say hydrogen bonding. The primary aim of this article is to underscore the technological consequences of thermodynamic non-idealities in separations by undertaking three different case studies.For CO<sub>2</sub> capture from humid gases in fixed bed adsorbers packed with CALF-20, the capture efficiency is significantly influenced by the thermodynamic non-idealities, necessitating the use of the Real Adsorbed Solution Theory (RAST) in simulations of adsorption/desorption cycles.

The degradation products of MEA mainly include HEGly, HEPO, HEI, HEA, AEHEIA, Adipamide, BHEOX, and HEEDA, which were significantly inhibited by PZ. The KI can furtherly enhance degradation resistance by removing the dissolved oxygen in the solvent, and the optimal addition amount is 3 %.

This study aims to develop low-cost ceramic membranes for the treatment of water contaminated by these dyes, using natural and economical materials. The membranes were made from abundant clay with different mass percentages of magnesium hydroxide, used as a pore-forming agent and were sintered at 900 °C and 1000 °C. To enhance filtration performance, the membranes were coated with a chemically, physically, and thermally stable layer of refractory cordierite phase. This was achieved using a sedimentation technique, which allowed precise control overthe thickness and ensured the formation of a thin, homogeneous layer. The microstructural evolution of the membranes was examined using XRF, XRD, SEM, and DTA-TGA techniques, while their properties were assessed through measurements of flux, permeability, porosity, density, and mechanical strength. Filtration performance was evaluated using a methylene blue solution. The results indicated that membranes sintered at 900 °C effectively filtered 99 % to 99.8 % of dyes, achieving fluxes between 46.36 and 84 L/(h·m<sup>2</sup>), with mechanical strengths ranging from 79 to 113 MPa.
