In this study, magnesium hydroxide (MH) particles with distinct morphologies were obtained through direct precipitation and subsequent hydrothermal treatment with various magnesium salts. The synthesized products were systematically characterized and utilized for the removal of Pb(ii) ions from aqueous solutions. The adsorption process of Pb(ii) by two different MH structures, namely flower globular magnesium hydroxide (FGMH) and hexagonal plate magnesium hydroxide (HPMH), adhered to the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order model.

As indicated by the characterization results, three-dimensional flower-like spheres composed of external Mg(OH) were formed, with nano-FeO particles uniformly embedded in the "flower petals" of the spheres. The efficacy of FeO@Mg(OH)-3 in Cu(ii) ion removal was examined through batch experiments.

Approximately 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (KH-570) is chosen as a modifier of ZO@MH for the purpose of enhancing the interfacial interaction between ZO@MH and the polypropylene (PP) matrix and reducing the agglomeration of ZO@MH. Afterwards, ZO@MH and KH-570 modified ZO@MH (KZO@MH) filled PP (PP/ZO@MH and PP/KZO@MH) composites are respectively prepared via the melt blending method.

However, magnetic COFs with pyridinic N have not been studied as bifunctional materials for the adsorption and catalytic degradation of dyes. Therefore, in this study, a magnetic COF with a pyridinic structure (BiPy-MCOF) was successfully synthesized using a solvothermal method, which exhibited higher methyl orange (MO) removal than other common adsorbents.

This study firstly combines the superior mechanical properties of magnesium borate rods (MBR) with the excellent smoke suppression and flame-retardant characteristics of layered double hydroxide (LDH). HPO intercalated LDH (LDHP) was coated on the MBR surface to obtain inorganic composite particles MBR@LDHP.

Subsequently, dodecyl dihydrogen phosphate (DDP) was grafted onto the surface of the composite particles to synthesize an inorganic-organic hybrid (MBW@HA-DDP). The structure, morphology, and composition of MBW@HA-DDP were well characterized.

Adsorption is an effective method for the removal of perfluoroalkanesulfonates (PFSAs) from water, and the limitation of the adsorption rate of existing adsorbents motivates efforts to develop novel adsorbents. Here, we developed four β-cyclodextrin covalent organic frameworks (β-CD-COFs) with a rapid removal rate and high adsorption capacity for four PFSAs in water including perfluorooctanesulfonate (PFOS), perfluorobutanesulfonate (PFBS), perfluorohexanesulfonate (PFHxS), and chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonate (F53B). All β-CD-COFs exhibited extremely fast adsorption (adsorption equilibrium <2 min) for PFSAs with high adsorption capacities (0.

Here we report the optimal granular FeO/rGO with high thermal and acid resistance stability through controlling its self-assembly for the adsorption and degradation of sodium p-perfluorous nonenoxybenzene sulfonate (OBS) from water. The maximum adsorption capacity for OBS was calculated to be 362.

As a typical alternative to PFOS, sodium -perfluorous nonenoxybenzene sulfonate (OBS) has recently been detected in the aquatic environment which has caused great concern. For the first time, the adsorption behaviour and mechanism of OBS on activated carbon (AC) with different physical and chemical properties were investigated.

Field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of alternate partial root-zone subsurface drip irrigation (APRSDI) on the physiological responses, yield, and water use efficiency of potato. Compared with conventional drip irrigation (CDI), APRSDI had less negative effects on the potato leaf photosynthesis rate (P(n)), but decreased the transpiration rate and stomatal conductance significantly. The slightly higher P(n) under CDI was at the expense of consuming more water.
