The direct and rapid determination of trace cobalt ion (Co) in the electrolyte of zinc smelting plants is urgently needed but is impeded by the severe interference of extremely high-concentration zinc ions in the solution. Herein, colorimetric detection of Co by the polyvinylpyrrolidone functionalized silver nanoparticles (PVP-AgNPs) is realized in solutions with the Zn/Co ratio being high, up to (0.8-5) × 10, which is located within the ratio range in industrial solution. The high concentration of Zn induces a strong attenuation of Co-related signals in ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) extinction spectra; nevertheless, a good linear range for detecting 1-6 mg/L Co in 50 g/L Zn solution is still acquired. The strong anti-interference toward other metal ions and the mechanism understanding for trace Co detection in such a high-concentration Zn solution are also revealed by systematic analysis techniques. The results extend the AgNPs as colorimetric sensors to industrial solutions, providing a new strategy for detecting trace-metal ions in industrial plants.

Nanoparticles are essential for energy storage, catalysis, and medical applications, emphasizing their accurate chemical characterization. However, atom probe tomography (APT) of nanoparticles sandwiched at the interface between an encapsulating film and a substrate poses difficulties. Poor adhesion at the film-substrate interface can cause specimen fracture during APT, while impurities may introduce additional peaks in the mass spectra.

Fusarium solani biomass plays a significant role in water pollution remediation due to its ability to sequester heavy metals, particularly cobalt (Co(II)) and cadmium (Cd(II)), which pose severe environmental and health risks. This study aimed to identify fungi from sewage-contaminated sites and evaluate their efficiency in absorbing and reducing Co(II) and Cd(II) ions. The biosorption potential of irradiated Fusarium solani biomass for removing Co(II) and Cd(II) ions from aqueous solutions was investigated.

The growing demand for energy storage batteries, driven by the need to alleviate global warming and reduce fossil fuel dependency, has led to environmental concerns surrounding spent batteries. Efficient recycling of these batteries is essential to prevent pollution and recover valuable metal ions such as nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and manganese (Mn). Conventional hydrometallurgical methods for battery recycling, while effective, often involve harmful chemicals and processes.

A simple, fast, and cost-effective colorimetric nitrite (NO) sensor based on ZIF-67-derived CoO nanocomposite (ZCo-2 NC) structure has been developed. The prepared colorimetric sensor (ZCo-2 NC) was employed to sensitively detect NO in drinking water system by the exhibition of promising peroxidase-mimicking nanozyme-like features. The sensor manifest well-determined sensing response with excellent linear and wide range of NO sensitivity (0.

A novel coordination compound, [Co()(HO)], was synthesized from aqueous solutions of Co(NO) and the ligand 2-[(5-methyl-1,3,4-thia-diazol-2-yl)sulfan-yl]acetic acid (H, CHNOS). In the monoclinic crystals (space group 2/), the cobalt(II) ion is located about a centre of symmetry and is octa-hedrally coordinated by two anions in a monodentate fashion through carboxyl O atoms and by four water mol-ecules. A relatively strong hydrogen bond between one of the water mol-ecules and the non-coordinating carboxyl-ate O atom consolidates the conformation.
