Green synthesis of CaLaMnO with modulation of mesoporous and vacancies for efficient low concentration phosphate adsorption.

Phosphate concentrations in eutrophic surface waters are usually low, and efficient removal of low concentration phosphate remains a challenge. In this study, Ca-doped LaMnO synthesized at doping ratios, designated as CaLaMnO (x = 0, 0.2, 0.

Phosphate adsorption on LDHs-biochar composite: Double-layer model for quantifying the contribution of ion exchange and ligand exchange.

The adsorption performance of layered double hydroxides (LDHs) is limited owing to self-aggregation. To avoid this and effectively control the eutrophication of water bodies, biochar (BC) was synthesized, herein, by pyrolyzing waste sheep manure at 500°C, and Ca-Al-LDHs were loaded on the surface via a coprecipitation method to obtain Ca-Al-LDHs-BC(CA) composites with varying LDH contents. The fitted maximum adsorption capacities of the CA-5%, CA-10%, CA-15%, and CA-20% samples (corresponding to samples with 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% LDHs, respectively) were 10.

La-Ca/Fe-LDH-coupled electrochemical enhancement of organophosphorus removal in water: Organophosphorus oxidation improves removal efficiency.

Metal ions or metal (hydrogen) oxides are widely used as active sites in the construction of phosphate-adsorbing materials in water, but the removal of soluble organophosphorus from water remains technically difficult. Herein, synchronous organophosphorus oxidation and adsorption removal were achieved using electrochemically coupled metal-hydroxide nanomaterials. La-Ca/Fe-layered double hydroxide (LDH) composites prepared using the impregnation method removed both phytic acid (inositol hexaphosphate, IHP) and hydroxy ethylidene diphosphonic acid (HEDP) acid under an applied electric field.

Spectral Measurements of Muzzle Flash with a Temporally and Spatially Modulated LWIR-Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer.

It is important to obtain information on an instantaneous target. A high-speed camera can capture a picture of an immediate scene, but spectral information about the object cannot be retrieved. Spectrographic analysis is a key tool for identifying chemicals.

B-site metal modulation of phosphate adsorption properties and mechanism of LaBO3 (B = Fe, Al and Mn) perovskites.

La-based adsorbents are widely used for controlling phosphate concentration in water bodies. In order to explore the effect of different B-site metals regulating La-based perovskites on phosphate adsorption, three La-based perovskites (LaBO, B = Fe, Al, and Mn) were prepared using the citric acid sol-gel method. Adsorption experiments showed that LaFeO exhibited the highest adsorption capacity for phosphate, which was 2.

CO Detection System Based on TDLAS Using a 4.625 μm Interband Cascaded Laser.

During industrial operations and in confined places, carbon monoxide (CO) may collect in harmful proportions if ventilation is insufficient or appliances are not properly maintained. When the concentration of CO is too high, it might result in suffocation, coma, or even death. The detection of tiny concentrations of CO plays an important role in safe production.

Adsorption properties and mechanism research of phosphorus with different molecular structures from aqueous solutions by La-modified biochar.

In order to explore the adsorption characteristics of phosphorus from molecules with different molecular structures and varying number of phosphate groups on metal-modified biochar, walnut shell biochar was modified with LaCl to prepare lanthanum-loaded biochar (BC-La). Adsorption of four polar components, namely phytic acid (IHP), adenosine-5'-disodium triphosphate (5-ATP), hydroxyethylidene diphosphonic acid (HEDP), and sodium pyrophosphate (PP), was studied. The adsorption properties and mechanism of phosphorus sorption by BC-La were analyzed by SEM-EDS and FTIR for the different structures.

Oyster Shell Modified Tobacco Straw Biochar: Efficient Phosphate Adsorption at Wide Range of pH Values.

In order to improve the phosphate adsorption capacity of Ca-loaded biochar at a wide range of pH values, Ca (oyster shell) was loaded as Ca(OH) on the tobacco stalk biochar (Ca-BC), which was prepared by high-temperature calcination, ultrasonic treatment, and stirring impregnation method. The phosphorus removal performance of Ca-BC adsorption was studied by batch adsorption experiments, and the mechanism of Ca-BC adsorption and phosphorus removal was investigated by SEM-EDS, FTIR, and XRD. The results showed that after high-temperature calcination, oyster shells became CaO, then converted into Ca(OH) in the process of stirring impregnation and had activated the pore expansion effect of biochar.

Modified biochar improves the storage capacity and adsorption affinity of organic phosphorus in soil.

The loss of soil organic phosphorus can easily cause water eutrophication. In order to effectively reduce the loss of soil organic phosphorus, this manuscript investigated the adsorption of soil organic phosphorus by lanthanum modified biochar (BC), traditional adsorbent gypsum (GY) and zeolite (ZE) by taking phytic acid as the representative. The adsorption isotherm model and kinetic models were used to fit the phosphorus absorption characteristics of the adsorbents.
