Abstract A new Cu(II) complex, [Cu2(1,3-BMIB)(OBA)2] n (1) (1,3-BMIB = 1,3-bis(2-methyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)benzene, H2OBA = 4,4′-oxybis(benzoic acid)) was hydrothermally synthesized and has been structurally characterized. Complex 1 possesses a 3D 2-fold interpenetrating framework based on [Cu(OBA)] n layers with a Schläfli symbol {412.63}. Complex 1 displays excellent photocatalytic properties in the degradation of methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB).

<p>In this study, B-Cyclodextrinn polymerized with beetroot fibers (Bio-polymer), was prepared and applied to the removal of organic and inorganic contaminants from wastewater. An investigation into the use of cross-linked cyclodextrin polyurethanes copolymerised with beetroot fibers as adsorbents for organic pollutants and heavy metals has yielded very useful results which may have an impact in future water treatment applications.</p> The Biopolymer was tested in water contaminated by dyes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and heavy metals. The effectiveness to eliminate dyes such as methylene blue and Rhodamine B with concentrations around 100 ppm was more than 99%, while the pyrene,which was chosen as an example among PAHs, showed a potential of elimination exceeding the 97% for solutions of 10 ppm. Also, heavy metals, such as Lead, Zn, and Cu, were tested and showed an efficacy exceeding the 99.8%. The results indicated that the biopolymer developed in this study has the potential to be a promising material for the removal of mixed pollutants from industrial wastewater or from contaminated groundwater.

Clay is a natural material from crystalline silicate with layered structures, has high cation exchange capacity, and large surface area. These advantages can be used as an adsorbent for the removal of contaminants in aqueous solutions, such as heavy metals and dyes. In Indonesia, clays from Java, Sulawesi, and Sumatra islands have been used as adsorbent, furniture, and construction materials. Due to limited information about basic characteristics of clay from Kalimantan, this clay has not been utilized well. Therefore, natural clay from Kalimantan, especially in Central Kalimantan, was used as adsorbent of cationic dyes in this present study. However, the clay has difficulty for separating the solid phase from aqueous solution after adsorption process. To solve this problem, combining clay with magnetic material was opted. The objectives of this study are to synthesize the magnetic composite material from natural clay by coprecipitation method and to characterize the synthesized magnetic composite material using an x-ray diffraction method, transmission electron microscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer. The adsorption properties of the synthesized magnetic composite material were evaluated using rhodamine B and methylene blue dyes in aqueous solution. Before magnetic composite material was synthesized, the clay was previously being activated for removing impurities. The magnetic material formed in the structure of clay had magnetite with particle size of 2.75 nm and the magnetization value of 24.91emu/g. The adsorption capacities of natural clay, activated clay, and magnetic composite of clay in rhodamine B were 34.29, 76.27, and 81.46 mg/g, respectively, while in methylene blue were 30.25, 83.92, and 133.90 mg/g, respectively. These results suggested that magnetic composite of clay can increase the adsorption capacities against dyes and accelerate the separation of the adsorbent solid phase from aqueous solution with largest adsorption capacity on methylene blue dye.

Bismuth oxide polymorphs (β-Bi2O3 nanoparticles and α-Bi2O3 coral-like morphology) were synthesized and they show an enhanced efficacy for the degradation of rhodamine B and acid orange 7 as compared to that of methylene blue and methyl orange under simulated solar illumination.
