In the present paper, a study on the synthesis of MIL-100(Fe) by hydrothermal process and its application in the catalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB) was demonstrated. The obtained samples were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), scaning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The results showed that the synthesized MIL- 100(Fe) exhibited high crystallinity and surface area. Its catalytic activity was evaluated by measuring the rate of conversion of MB after oxidation reaction by H2O2. The results indicated that the MIL-100(Fe) showsed high catalytic activity for the oxidation reaction of MB and at pH = 10, MB was degraded almost completely after after 3 hours of presence of the catalyst.

Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) was synthesized at 520°C by the pyrolysis of cyanamide, dicyandiamide, and melamine. The samples were characterized by X–ray diffraction (XRD), UV-visible diffuse reflectance spectra, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and elemental analyzer. The photocatalytic activity of g-C3N4was evaluated by the photodegrading experiments of methylene blue (MB). The results indicated that g-C3N4. A photocatalytic mechanism presumed the MB photodegradation over the C3N4photocatalyst is attributed to photogenerated electron impelled multistep reduction of O2.

Effect of aeration treatment on Methylene Blue (MB) removal using TiO2-Zeolite has been investigated. The TiO2-Zeolite was prepared by mixing activated zeolite and TiO2 in absolute ethanol. This composite was characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The MB removal was monitored spectrophotometrically. The effect of contact time, composite mass, and aeration treatment on MB removal was observed. Characterization results showed that there was interaction between TiO2 and SiO/AlO of zeolite. The observation of aeration treatment using oxygen exhibited significant improving on MB removal.

In this study, the bio-nanocomposite composed of chitosan and nanoclay was prepared by solution intercalation method. The membrane was subsequently fabricated by dry/wet phase separation technique. The structure of bio-nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The membrane was applied to adsorb methylene blue (MB) for water treatment. The adsorption of MB was monitored through UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results showed that bionanocomposite membrane could adsorb MB up to 97.9 % in 150 min. The MB adsorption of bionanocomposite membrane was 234 times as high as the adsorption of the conventional chitosan films that is promising for environmental applications.

Photothermal materials are attracting more and more attention. In this research, we synthesized a ferrocene-containing polymer with magnetism and photothermal properties. The resulting polymer was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Its photo-thermocatalytic activity was investigated by choosing methylene blue (MB) as a model compound. The degradation percent of MB under an irradiated 808 nm laser reaches 99.5% within 15 min, and the degradation rate is 0.5517 min−1, which is 145 times more than that of room temperature degradation. Under irradiation with simulated sunlight, the degradation rate is 0.0092 min−1, which is approximately 2.5 times more than that of room temperature degradation. The present study may open up a feasible route to degrade organic pollutants.

Mixed oxides were synthesized by co-precipitation of a Cu source in combination with Al, Fe or Mn corresponding salts as precursors. The materials were calcined at 600 and 1000 °C in order to crystallize the phases and to mimic the reaction conditions of the catalytic application. At 600 °C a mixed spinel structure was only formed for the combination of Cu and Mn, while at 1000 °C all the materials showed mixed spinel formation. The catalysts were applied in three-way catalysis using a reactor with a gas mixture containing CO, NO and O2. All the materials calcined at 600 °C displayed the remarkable ability to oxidize CO with O2 but also to reduce NO with CO, while the pure oxides such as CuO and MnO2 were not able to. The high catalytic activity at 600 °C was attributed to small supported CuO particles present and imperfections in the spinel structure. Calcination at 1000 °C crystallized the structure further which led to a dramatic loss in catalytic activity, although CuAl2O4 and CuFe2O4 still converted some NO. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, H2-Temperatrue Programmed Reduction (H2-TPR), N2-sorption and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX).

Triethynylborazine-polyhydromethylsiloxane copolymers (TEB-PHMSs) were prepared through hydrosilylation reaction between -C≡CH attached to boron and ≡Si-H. The structures of TEB-PHMSs were characterized by Fourier transform Infrared (FT-IR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Their cure behavior were examined by Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) and FT-IR, and then thermostability and ceramization of cured TEB-PHMS were investigated by Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), pyrolysis-GC-MS, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The results indicated that TEB-PHMSs could be cured and converted into an outstanding thermostable SiBCN ceramics.

This paper discusses the catalytic activity of ZnO/CuO/nanographene platelets composites under visible light and ultrasound irradiation separately. The ZnO/CuO/nanographene platelets composites were synthesized using a sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction and nitrogen adsorption spectroscopy were employed to investigate the structural and surface area of the catalyst. The catalytic activity results showed that the presence of nanographene platelets in ZnO/CuO nanocomposites improved its efficiency in degrading methylene blue. A scavenger method was also used to understand the role of charged carriers and the active radical involved in the catalytic activity.
