Article Abstract
3-(2-Aminoethylamino)propyltriethoxysilane and carboxyethylsilanetriol sodium salt were grafted on silica-coated FeO nanoparticles via sol-gel process to prepare novel amine- and carboxyl-bifunctionalized magnetic nanocomposites (SMNPs-(NH + COOH)). After well characterized, this doubly functionalized material was used as magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) adsorbent to separate and enrich inorganic chromium species followed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry detection. The optimization of MSPE operation parameters including pH was conducted. It is reasonably elucidated that the adsorption mechanisms of zwitterionic SMNPs-(NH + COOH) towards chromium species are electrostatic and/or coordination interactions. Cr(VI) and Cr(III) can be adsorbed around pH 3.0 and around 10.0 respectively with strong anti-interference ability not only from other co-existing ions but also from the two labile species each other, and eluted by dilute nitric acid solution. With a 15-fold enrichment factor, the limits of detection of Cr(VI) and Cr(III) were 0.008 and 0.009 μg L, respectively, profiting from the maximum adsorption capacities of 7.52 and 6.11 mg g. The just one magnetic extraction matrix based speciation scheme possesses excellent convenience and friendliness to Cr(VI) and Cr(III) without any oxidation or reduction prior to capture of these two species. This protocol has been successfully applied to the speciation analysis of inorganic chromium in real-world environmental water samples.

Sensitization of wide bandgap semiconductors by coupling with a low-band-gap semiconductor to improve photoinduced charge carrier separation by the built-in electric field is one of the attractive approaches to develop an efficient photocatalyst. Here we present the development of Ag-ZnMnO/exfoliated g-CN (Ag-ZMO/ECN), a novel photocatalyst designed to remove an inorganic pollutant Cr(VI) under direct solar light irradiation. The enhanced performance of Ag-ZMO/ECN is attributed to efficient charge separation, facilitated by the formation of a p-n junction at the interface of narrow-bandgap p-type ZMO and n-type ECN, and the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effect of the deposited Ag nanoparticles.

Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is a highly toxic and flammable gas that is also an important indicator of meat spoilage. Therefore, real-time and accurate detection of HS concentration is essential to ensure environmental safety and human health. Despite its significance, achieving highly sensitive detection of HS gases at low temperatures remains a formidable challenge.

Geogenic Cr(III) oxidative release in serpentine soils is a continuous source of Cr contamination in surface and groundwater. Although manganese (Mn) oxides have been shown to be a key factor driving Cr(III) oxidative release, their oxidative mechanism and release fluxes in serpentine soils remain unclear. In this study, the dual mechanism of δ-MnO regulating Cr release and migration from surface soil was revealed through column leaching experiments.

Despite extensive studies, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) suffer from some challenges, like multistep synthesis, expensive raw materials, and leaching of particular components, in the adsorptive denitrogenation (ADN) of oil. These challenges limit the application of MOFs in industrial ADN. To go beyond these challenges, MIL-100(Cr) (with the formula [CrO(X)(HO)(BTC)]·HO, X = F or OH, HBTC = 1,3,5-benzene tricarboxylic acid) was selected and modified with two approaches to tune the acidic sites of the framework.

The accessibility of pure water is crucial for various human activities and is increasingly in demand due to the growing global population. Among the water-polluting substances, heavy metals are considered significant environmental threats regardless of the low concentrations, owing to their non-biodegradable, highly persistent and toxic features. Adsorption stands as a proficient method for the remediation of heavy metals in debt of its flexibility, reversibility, ability to produce high-quality treated water, and the potential to regenerate the adsorbent.
