Enhanced Desulfurization by Tannin Extract Absorption Assisted by Binuclear Sulfonated Phthalocyanine Cobalt Polymer: Performance and Mechanism.

Removal of hydrogen sulfide (HS) from coke oven gas has attracted increasing attention due to economic and environmental concerns. In this study, tannin extract (TE) absorption combined with binuclear sulfonated phthalocyanine cobalt organic polymer (OTS) and binuclear sulfonated phthalocyanine cobalt (PDS) with a fixed bed reactor is used for removal of HS. The effect of gas flow rate, concentration of HS, co-existence of organic sulfide compounds and O were investigated.

Modified MIL-100(Fe) for enhanced photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline under visible-light irradiation.

Iron-based metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with low cost and excellent photocatalytic potential are extremely attractive in the field of energy utilization and environmental remediation. In this study, a novel InS/MIL-100(Fe) photocatalyst was successfully synthesized by a facile solvothermal method for the first time. Several technologies (such as X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) were used to characterize the as-obtained samples and demonstrate the successful combination of MIL-100(Fe) and InS.

Evaluation of the Effects of Lime-bassanite-charcoal Amendment on the Immobilization of Cadmium in Contaminated Soil.

The effects of amendments, such as lime, bassanite, sodium phosphate, steel slag and charcoal, and their compounds on the immobilization of cadmium (Cd) are investigated. The lime-bassanite-charcoal compound shows the best remediation performance compared to other agents in conducted experiments. The optimum condition for lime-bassanite-charcoal application in contaminated soil is lime-bassanite-charcoal with a mass ratio of 1:1/3:2/3, a dose of 2% of the soil weight, and a liquid-to-solid ratio of 35%-40%; additionally, the agents should be added before water addition.
