Opposite Trend

The paper reports the results of an investigation aimed to find out the number and the chemical structures of byproducts which form during the reactions occurring in aqueous solution between two very common disinfectants, sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and chlorine dioxide (ClO2), and two herbicides widely used in agriculture and frequently found in groundwaters: ametryn and isoproturon. Under controlled experimental conditions [T=20°C, pH=7, reaction-time = 48h, herbicide/disinfectant molar ratios: 0.05 and 0.05×10−2], ametryn reactions with chlorine dioxide much slower than with sodium hypochlorite, whereas the opposite trend has been observed for isoproturon. In any case, however, the higher the reagents concentration the faster the reactions. As for reaction byproducts, they have been detected by HPLC and identified by HPLC-MS. In particular, ametryn (R-S-CH3) reaction with NaClO gives rise to the consecutive formation of four derivatives: the sulphoxide (R-SO-CH3), the sulphone (R-SO2-CH3), the sulphonate ester (R-O-SO2-CH3) and its hydrolysis product (R-OH). Within the fixed reaction time (48h), ametryn reaction with ClO2 forms only the sulphoxide derivative (R-SO-CH3). As for isoproturon, it reacts with both oxidants forming aromatic-ring substituted derivatives. In particular, during the reactions with NaClO and ClO2, four and two (chlorinated and/or hydroxylated) derivatives are respectively formed.

Microorganism Removal

Hydrodynamic cavitation can effectively remove organic pollutants and microorganisms from water. Organic compound degradation and water disinfection removal rate is related to reaction time and operating temperature. Removal rate can be improved by increasing the reaction time or raising the operating temperature. Under our experimental conditions, the removal rate of colority, COD and petroleum pollutants was 80.0%, 72.13% and 70.00%, respectively. In addition, Escherichia coli removal rate was higher than 99.99%. As a new water treatment process, hydrodynamic cavitation can be utilized alone or in combination with other water treatment processes, showing broad application prospects.

The present study deals with the investigation of catalytic cycloalkylation reactions of phenol with 1-methylcyclopentene. KU-23 and aluminum phenolate were used as catalysts for the process. The effect of kinetic parameters (temperature, duration, molar ratios of the initial components and the amount of catalyst) on the yield and selectivity of methylcyclopentyl phenols obtained as a result of scientific research was investigated. As a result, effective conditions were found for the production of para- and ortho-, ortho- (1-methylcyclopentyl) phenols with high yield and selectivity. It was determined that high yield of target product in the presence of phenol, 1-methylcyclopentene and catalyst KU-23, was 71.2% for phenol and selectivity for target product - 92.8% is obtained under the following conditions of cycloalkylation reaction: temperature 110°C, reaction time-5 hours, molar ratio phenol to methylcyclopentene-1 : 1, the amount of catalyst-10% according to the phenol taken. The cycloalkylation reaction of phenol with 1-methylcyclopentene in the presence of aluminum phenolate catalyst was carried out in an autoclave in a nitrogen environment and effective conditions were found: temperature 260°C, reaction time - 5 hours, molar ratio of phenol to 1-methylcyclopentene 1: 2, amount of catalyst 20% according to the phenol taken. Under these conditions, the yield of the target product is 44.3% for the phenol taken, and the selectivity is 87.6% for the target product. The chemical structures of the synthesized para- and ortho-, ortho- (1-methylcyclopentyl) phenols were confirmed by IR-, 1H and NMR spectroscopy, and physicochemical parameters were determined.

AbstractThe modification of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) in DMSO catalyzed by TEMED is reported in this paper. PVA was dissolved in DMSO and reacted with GMA at 30 ºC in a closed vessel under N2 gas bubbling for 24 hours. The reaction was characterized by FTIR and NMR (1H, 13C/DEPT and HETCOR) spectroscopies. The reaction occurs by transesterification through the insertion of methacryloyl groups into PVA chains and probably with the formation of glycidol as a by-product. The degree of substitution (DS) that represents the number of methacryloyl groups inserted was determined through 1H NMR spectra based on the ratio between the averaged area due to the vinyl hydrogen from methacryloyl groups at δ̣ 5.6 ppm and δ 6.0 ppm and the total area of the vinyl hydrogen and hydroxyl hydrogen of PVA. By use of response surface methodology the experimental conditions were optimized. The optimum conditions were 62 ºC with a reaction time of 6 hours. In these optimized conditions, the reactions using the molar ratios [-OH(PVA)/GMA] equal to 1/0.10, 1/0.25, 1/0.50, 1/0.75 and 1/1 were investigated. The response surface was based on the model DS= −19.70 + 6.09x10−1T +1.93 t − 3.89x10−3 T2 − 5.21x10−2t2 − 2.14x10−2 T * t, where T is the temperature (°C) and t the reaction time (hours). This model explained 99.20 % of the 99.64 % explainable statistical data. Using the optimized conditions, it is possible to produce a desired modified PVA, (or PVA-Ma), because DS raises linearly to the ratio [-OH(PVA)/GMA] up to 25 mol-% and the respective yield ranged from 83 to 92 %. It is difficult to obtain more than 50 mol-% substitution of PVA hydroxyl by methacryloyl groups even in these optimized conditions due to increased steric hindrance by the large number of the methacryloyl groups inserted into PVA.

Abstract This paper focused on the adsorption behavior of Fe (III) in aqueous solution on melamine. The effects of experimental conditions including dosage of melamine, reaction time and reaction temperature were investigated. The results showed that nearly 99% Fe (III) was adsorbed under the optimal conditions: melamine dosage (mole ratio) at n(C3H6N6)/n(Fe) = 3.5:1, reaction time of 60 min and reaction temperature of 90 °C. The optimal processing factors were obtained from response surface methodology and the effects of processing parameters on the removal efficiency of Fe (III) followed the order: mole ratio (n(C3N6H6):n(Fe)) > reaction temperature > reaction time. The adsorption kinetics behavior was fitted well with the pseudo-second-order model. The thermodynamic study showed that the adsorption process was unspontaneous and endothermic. The value of free energy change and standard enthalpy change disclosed that the mechanism of adsorption onto melamine was physisorption. The results will be useful for further applications of system design in the treatment of practical waste effluents.

The production of biodiesel at the industrial level is mainly based on the use of basic catalysts. Otherwise, also acidic catalysis allowed high conversion and yields, as this method is not affected by the percentage of free fatty acids present in the starting sample. This work has been useful in assessing the possible catalytic pathways in the production of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs), starting from different cooking waste oil mixtures, exploring particularly acidic catalysis. It was possible to state that the optimal experimental conditions required concentrated sulfuric acid 20% w/w as a catalyst, a reaction time of twelve hours, a temperature of 85 °C and a molar ratio MeOH/oil of 6:1. The role of silica in the purification method was also explored. By evaluating the parameters, type of catalyst, temperature, reaction time and MeOH/oil molar ratios, it has been possible to develop a robust method for the production of biodiesel from real waste mixtures with conversions up to 99%.

The highly prescribed antidepressant, citalopram, as one of newly emerging pollutants, has been frequently detected in the aquatic environment. Citalopram oxidation was examined during sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and chlorine dioxide (ClO2) chlorination processes since conventional wastewater treatment plants cannot remove citalopram effectively. Citalopram has been demonstrated to form N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) during chlorination in our previous study. Further investigation on NDMA formation kinetics was conducted in the present study. Influences of operational variables (disinfectant dose, pH value) and water matrix on citalopram degradation, as well as NDMA generation, were evaluated. The results indicated high reactivity of citalopram with NaOCl and ClO2. NDMA formation included two stages during CIT oxidation, which were linear related with reaction time. NaOCl was more beneficial to remove CIT, but it caused more NDMA formation. Increasing disinfectant dosage promoted citalopram removal and NDMA formation. However, no consistent correlation was found between citalopram removal and pH. Contrary to the situation of citalopram removal, NDMA generation was enhanced when citalopram was present in actual water matrices, especially in secondary effluent. DMA, as an intermediate of citalopram chlorination, contributed to NDMA formation, but not the only way.

Salicylic hydroxamic acid is a novel flotation reagent used in mineral processing. However, it impacts the flotation wastewater leaving behind high chromaticity which limits its reuse and affects discharge for mining enterprises. This study researched ozonation catalyzed by the granular activated carbon (GAC) method to treat the chromaticity of the simulated mineral processing wastewater with salicylic hydroxamic acid. The effects of pH value, ozone (O3) concentration, GAC dosage, and reaction time on chromaticity and chemical oxygen demand (CODCr) removal were discussed. The results of individual ozonation experiments showed that the chromaticity removal ratio reached 79% and the effluent chromaticity exceeded the requirement of reuse and discharge when the optimal experimental conditions were pH value 3, ozone concentration 6 mg/L, and reaction time 40 min. The orthogonal experimental results of catalytic ozonation with GAC on chromaticity removal explained that the chromaticity removal ratio could reach 96.36% and the chromaticity of effluent was only 20 when the optimal level of experimental parameters was pH value 2.87, O3 concentration 6 mg/L, GAC dosage 0.06 g/L, reaction time 60 min respectively. The degradation pathway of salicylic hydroxamic acid by ozonation was also considered based on an analysis with ultraviolet absorption spectrum and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

We report on a process in which CuO nanopowder was produced in a high yield by adopting ultrasonic in aqueous solution. In our experiment, CuCl2 solution was reacted with NaOH solution and NaNO2, at ambient conditions applying ultrasonic for 5 min. Precipitation was performed by varying the molar ratios of NaOH/CuCl2 and NaNO2/CuCl2. CuO nanoparticles of ~ 5 nm and spherical shape were obtained at the NaOH/CuCl2 of 2.0 and the NaNO2/CuCl2 of 0.097. Without ultrasonication, an amorphous phase was formed at these conditions. This indicates that sonochemical reaction facilitates direct formation of the nanosized CuO particles. In addition, the particle morphology varied from sphere through ellipsoid to needle forms depending on pH. In thick films prepared with the CuO powder for gas sensing, the maximum CO gas sensitivity reached 93 % at the temperature of 250 °C and depended linearly on CO concentration in log scale over the range of 10 ~ 104 ppm.
