Consequently, photocatalysis is gaining recognition as a viable approach for the treatment of water. In this study, Polyaniline/Bi₂S₃/NiFe₂O₄ nanocomposite is prepared by the coprecipitation method for the photodegradation of indigo carmine (IC) dye. The prepared samples are then examined via FTIR, XRD, TEM, SEM, VSM, PL, and DRS techniques. In the second part of the research, a thorough examination is conducted on the influence of photocatalyst dosage (0.1–1 g/L), initial concentration and pH (2–9), of dye solution (10–50 mg/L) on the photocatalytic degradation of IC dye under visible light irradiation. Results indicate that reducing pH, increasing time, and dosage of photocatalyst indicate a positive impact on dye removal efficiency. So that in the optimal conditions of pH = 2 with 0.5 g/L of photocatalyst in 10 mg/L of pollution solution, the highest efficiency of photocatalytic removal of IC dye is obtained 96.01%. In addition, the nanocomposite maintains 78.19% activity after four consecutive cycles. Based on the photocurrent and EIS Spectroscopy analyses, the enhanced photocatalytic efficiency of the Polyaniline/Bi₂S₃/NiFe₂O₄ nanocomposite can be ascribed to the expeditious separation and migration of electron–hole pairs and a lower charge transfer resistance. Finally, using the simplified Langmuir–Hinshelwood equation (first-order model) in kinetic studies recommended that the employed model is appropriate for precisely explaining the experimental data accurately.</p>","PeriodicalId":753,"journal":{"name":"Research on Chemical Intermediates","volume":"50 12","pages":"5937 - 5961"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142679757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to investigate the effect of modulator variation on the structural and textural properties of UiO-66(Zr) and UiO-67(Zr), and to assess its impact on their catalytic performance in the catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) of α-angelica lactone (AnL) to <i>γ</i>-valerolactone (GVL). UiO-66(Zr) and UiO-67(Zr) were synthesized via solvothermal methods, with varying amounts of modulator introduced during the process. The synthesized materials were characterized using spectroscopy and microscopy techniques. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the presence of characteristic peaks for both MOFs, while FTIR spectroscopy identified the formation of Zr-O bonds, as indicated by peak broadening at wavenumbers 743 and 591 cm⁻¹ for UiO-66, and 743 and 578 cm⁻¹ for UiO-67. Field emission scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (FESEM-EDX) revealed that higher modulator concentrations enhanced the clarity of the octahedral shape and increased particle size. Nitrogen physisorption analysis demonstrated improvements in surface area, pore volume, and pore diameter with modulator addition. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) indicated that higher modulator content resulted in reduced ZrO₂ residue. The CTH reaction was conducted using 10 wt% catalyst at 90 °C for 6 h under reflux condition. All synthesized materials exhibited catalytic activity, producing GVL from AnL. Notably, UiO-66(Zr) synthesized without a modulator showed the highest activity, achieving 67% AnL conversion and 60% selectivity toward GVL. Interestingly, higher crystallinity, surface area, and pore volume were found to decrease catalytic activity and selectivity, likely due to size selectivity in GVL formation and a reduction in active sites or defects following modulator addition. The reusability tests confirmed the formation of carbon coke, likely due to polymerization reactions initiated by Brönsted acid sites, which subsequently lowered both the yield and selectivity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":753,"journal":{"name":"Research on Chemical Intermediates","volume":"50 12","pages":"5755 - 5779"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142679519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Effects of catalysts and washcoating for cordierite support were evaluated for carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide activity in a batch reactor.

The main species are the dianion interacting with the surface on the titania and the neutral or anionic one on the silica. The silica suppressed the adsorption and degradation of the FC due to its acidity. The electron transfer from the adsorbed FC molecules to the titania promoted the dye-sensitized degradation.
