In the present study a carboxylated styrene-divinylbenzene (St-DVB) polymeric sorbent (CSPS) was prepared for enhanced removal of p-chloroaniline from aqueous solution. A commercial styrene-divinylbenzene polymeric sorbent Amberlite XAD-4 was selected as the reference sorbent to evaluate the performance of CSPS. Characterization of CSPS was determined by infrared spectroscopy and pore size distribution. A p-chloroaniline sorption enhancement on CSPS at capacity about twice of Amberlite XAD-4 was observed, which was mainly attributed to the carboxyl group added on the polymeric matrix. Different pH-dependent sorption property of p-chloroaniline onto XAD-4 and CSPS was observed partly due to the role of carboxyl group. Sorption isotherm of p-chloroaniline on CSPS could be represented by Freundlich model reasonably, and that on XAD-4 was more suitable for Langmuir model. Kinetic studies demonstrated that the uptake of p-chloroaniline on CSPS and XAD-4 followed the pseudo-second order model. Moreover, breakthrough curves on CSPS further demonstrated its better performance towards p-chloroaniline removal from aqueous solution. Complete regeneration of the spent sorbent CSPS was achieved by dilute hydrochloric acid for its repeated use, implying its potential application in associated chemical wastewater treatments.

In this research, the degradation of Congo red (CR) dye, as an organic pollutant in water, was investigated using microwave-induced reaction technology. This technology requires a microwave-absorbing catalyst and the 2D TiCT MXene was synthesized for that purpose. The synthesized catalyst was characterized using XRD, SEM, TEM, EDX, BET, and XPS techniques.

This study investigated the effect of different-polarity aqueous ethanol solutions on the formation of V-type starch originating from corn starch. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the morphology of starch transformed from a random lamellar structure to a granular structure with decreasing solution polarity. When the ethanol concentration increased from 40 % to 60 %, the crystallinity and single-helix ratio of V-type starch increased from 9.

As naturally essential biomacromolecule, HSA has become diagnostic indicators for various diseases and universal carriers for anticancer drug delivery, therefore, fluorescence detection and labeling for HSA possess significant application value in the biomedical field. In this paper, hydrazide Schiff base fluorescent probe NDQC was designed and synthesized, which self-assembled into nanoparticles in aqueous solution system and demonstrated excellent selectivity and sensitivity towards HSA. Through displacement assay and molecular docking simulation, the binding of NDQC with HSA in FA1 site was demonstrated, thereby no obvious fluorescence signal presented for homologous protein BSA due to their structural differences in binding site.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in aquatic systems is a widespread environmental issue. In this study, a solid waste iron tailings and biochar hybrid (Fe-TWBC) was successfully synthesized derived from co-pyrolysis of peanut shell and tailing waste (Fe-TW). Characterization analyses showed that the metal oxides from solid waste iron tailings successfully loaded onto the biochar surface, with more functional groups in Fe-TWBC.
