Two types of operation means "SBR reactor alone (control reactor)" and "adding zeolite powder into SBR reactor (test reactor)" were used to treat municipal wastewater. The test results revealed that zeolite powder addition could improve the activity of the activated sludge. It was investigated the specific oxygen utilization rate (SOUR) of the tested zeolite sludge were about double times that of the control activated sludge, and the nitrification rate and settling property of zeolite-activated sludge were both improved. Due to the combination of zeolite adsorption for NH(4)(+)-N and enhanced simultaneous nitrification and de-nitrification (SND), a higher nitrogen removal was observed in test reactor compared to the control reactor, and the addition of zeolite powder is helpful to inhabit sludge bulking. In addition, through long-term parallel shock load test, it was found that the zeolite powder addition could enhance the ability of activated sludge in resisting the shock load of organics and ammonium. Compared to the control activated sludge, zeolite powder added activated sludge could remove COD, NH(4)(+)-N, TN and TP significantly in a shorter cycle time. At the same operational time period, the test SBR could treat wastewater quantity 1.22 times that treated in control SBR.

In this paper, microporous Zn-based zeolitic imidazolate framework with the sodalite cage structure (SOD-ZIF-8) was synthesized by the solvothermal method. Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and N2 adsorption were employed to characterize the synthesized material. An ultra-sensitive electrochemical sensor based on highly dispersed bimetallic Ni-Pt nanoparticles immobilized on zeolitic metal-organic framework ZIF-8 for dopamine quantification is introduced for the first time.

Zeolite coatings are studied as molecular sieves for membrane separation, membrane reactors, and chemical sensor applications. They are also studied as anticorrosive films for metals and alloys, antimicrobial and hydrophobic films for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, and dielectrics for semiconductor applications. Zeolite coatings are synthesized by hydrothermal, ionothermal, and dry-gel conversion approaches, which require high process temperatures and lengthy times (ranging from hours to days).

Synthetic mordenite is widely used as a molecular sieve, adsorbent, and catalyst. To enhance these functionalities, it is crucial to understand the ion-exchange properties and cation-exchange sites of the zeolite. In this study, we analyzed the structural changes in fully Cs-, Sr-, Cd-, and Pb-exchanged mordenite by using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction under ambient conditions.

Zeolite membranes are considered ideal inorganic membrane materials for separating mixtures with molecular-level differences. However, their complex preparation process with excessive synthesis solutions for traditional hydrothermal heating methods leads to various drawbacks. Here, we describe a membrane preparation strategy involving an in situ interfacial transformation of the protomembrane without solvents.

A significant challenge in membrane production is the need for affordable materials that provide high efficiency for their designated applications. Employing recycled materials in membrane manufacturing is viewed as a promising solution to tackle this challenge. In this work, a superwettable polyethylene terephthalate membrane modified with cobalt zeolitic imidazolate framework (PET/Co ZIF) is prepared for the first time from recycled plastic mineral water bottles and used to extract polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from aqueous samples followed by high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection (HPLC-UV).
