Water contamination by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs,such as acetaminophen,is an emerging ecological concern.In this study,a newthree-dimensionalmanganese dioxideengrafted reduced graphene oxide(3D MnO_(2)/rGO)hybrid aerogel was developed for acetaminophen sequestration.The synthesis involved firstly the self-assembly of GO aerogel,followed by thermal reduction and in-situ MnO_(2) growth by redox-reaction.The aerogel demonstrated interlinked planes with smooth surfaces deposited with MnO_(2) nanospheres and pores of 138.4–235.3μm width.The influences of adsorbent dosage,initial pH,acetaminophen concentration,temperature and contact time were investigated.It was determined that the adsorption of acetaminophen occurred on uniform sorption sites in the aerogel,as suggested by the best fit of data to the Langmuir isotherm,yielding a maximum adsorption capacity of 252.87 mg/g.This highest adsorption performance of the 3D MnO_(2)/rGO aerogel was attained at a dosage of 0.6 g/L,initial pH of 6.2 and temperature of 40℃.The process kinetics were in-line with the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetics at 10 and 20–500 mg/L concentrations,respectively.Thermodynamic assay showed the spontaneity and endothermicity features of the 3D MnO_(2)/rGO-acetaminophen system.The acetaminophen adsorption mechanisms were mainly hydrogen bonding and pore entrapment.Moreover,the as-synthesised aerogel was effectively regenerated using acetone and re-utilised in four adsorption-desorption cycles.Overall,the results highly recommend the implementation of the 3D MnO_(2)/rGO hybrid aerogel for purification of wastewater polluted by acetaminophen residue.

A better understanding of the effects of a number of environmental factors on denitrification is vital for analyzing its role as nitrogen sink and providing deeper knowledge about the ecological status of a nitrate-rich ecosystem. Since few studies have addressed the occurrence and implications of denitrification in river sediments, and complexity of interactions among all these environmental factors makes comprehension of the process difficult, the potential of sediments from the Deba River to attenuate nitrate excess through denitrification was investigated. For this purpose, we adapted an in vitro method to measure activities of two enzymes contributing to the entire multiple-step nitrate reduction: Nitrate Reductase and Nitrite Reductase. The environmental features that influence both or single enzymatic activities were identified as oxygen availability,regulated directly by the moisture content or indirectly through the aerobic respiration,organic matter and nitrate content of sediments, and electrical conductivity and exchangeable sodium percentage of water. Additionally, our results showed that Nitrate Reductase catalyzes the principal limiting step of denitrification in sediments. Therefore,taking this enzymatic activity as an indicator, the southern part of the Deba River catchment presented low potential to denitrify but nitrate-limited sediments, whereas the middle and northern parts were characterized by high denitrification potential but nitraterich sediments. In general, this study on denitrifying enzymatic activities in sediments evaluates the suitability of the management of the effluents from wastewater treatment plants and municipal sewages to ensure a good ecological status of the Deba River.

Graphitic carbon nitride with nanorod structure(Nr-GCN)was synthesized using melamine as a precursor without any other reagents by hydrothermal pretreatment method.XRD,FTIR,SEM,N_(2)adsorption-desorption from BET,UV-Vis DRS spectroscopy,and photoluminescence were used to characterize the prepared samples.Also,the photoelectrochemical behavior of nanoparticles was studied by photocurrent transient response and cyclic voltammetry analysis.Polystyrene(PS)fibrous mat was fabricated by electrospinning technique and used as a support for the stabilization of the nanoparticles.The performance of the synthesized nanoparticles and photocatalytic fibers(PS/Nr-GCN)was evaluated in oilfield-produced water treatment under visible light irradiation.During this process,oil contaminants were adsorbed by hydrophobic polystyrene fibers and simultaneously degraded by Nr-GCN.The removal efficiency of chemical oxygen demand(COD)has been obtained 96.6%and 98.4%by Nr-GCN and PS/Nr-GCN,respectively,at the optimum conditions of pH4,photocatalyst dosage 0.5 g/L,COD initial concentration 550 mg/L,and illumination time 150 min.The gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy analysis results showed 99.3%removal of total petroleum hydrocarbons using photocatalytic fibers of PS/Nr-GCN.The results demonstrated that the GCN has outstanding features like controllable morphology,visible-light-driven,and showing high potential in oily wastewater remediation.Moreover,the synergistic effect of adsorption and photocatalytic degradation is an effective technique in oilfield-produced water treatment.

To achieve carbon neutrality,the Chinese government needs to gain a comprehensive understanding of the sources and drivers of greenhouse gas(GHG)emissions,particularly at the county level.Anji County in eastern China is a typical example of an industrial transformation from quarrying to a low-carbon economy.This study analyzed the decoupling types and structural characteristics of GHG emissions and the driving factors of carbon dioxide(CO_(2))emissions in the Anji from 2006 to 2019,and explored the differences between countylevel and provincial-level or city-level results.It was observed that energy-related activities are the main source of GHG emissions in Anji and that economic development is the driving factor behind the increasing CO_(2)emissions.However,industrial transformation and upgradation coupled with the alternative use of clean energy limit the growth of GHG emissions.This study details the GHG emissions of county during the industrial transformation stage and provides corresponding policy recommendations for county governments.

The remediation of wastewater requires treatment technologies which are robust, efficient,simple to operate and affordable such as adsorption. Lately, three-dimensional(3D)graphene based materials have attracted significant attention as effective adsorbents for wastewater treatment. The intrinsic properties of 3D graphene structure such as large surface area and interconnected porous structure can facilitate the transport of pollutants into the 3D network and provide abundant active sites for trapping the pollutants. For the synthesis of 3D graphene structure, ice-templating is commonly practiced due to its facile steps, cost effectiveness and high scalability potential. This review covers the icetemplating fabrication technique for 3D graphene based materials and their application as adsorbents in eliminating dyes and heavy metals from aqueous media. The assembly mechanisms of the ice-templating fsynthesis are comprehensively discussed. Further discussion on the fundamental principles, critical process parameters and characteristics of ice-templated 3D graphene structures is also included. A thorough review on the mechanisms for batch adsorption of dyes and heavy metals is presented based on the structures and properties of the 3D graphene materials. The review further evaluates the dynamic adsorption in packed columns and the regeneration of 3D graphene based materials.

In this work,the characterizations of Cu-SSZ-13 after hydrothermal aging(HTA)and thermal aging(TA)at different temperatures(750,800,and 850°C)are compared,and the differences between those two serious aged samples are analyzed.With this data,the effect of steam on catalysts deactivation during hydrothermal aging is analyzed.The TA at 750 and 800°C causes the dealumination and the agglomeration of Cu^(2+)ions to Cu O,resulting in the activity loss of Cu-SSZ-13.The presence of steam upon HTA at750 and 800°C aggravates the catalyst deactivation by increasing the Al detachment and the Cu^(2+)agglomeration.The structure and cupric state are almost the same in the Cu-SSZ-13 after TA and HTA at 850°C,respectively,indicating that the steam has little influence on the deactivation.The formation of CuAl_(2)O_(4) spinel is the primary reason for the deactivation after both HTA and TA at 850°C,probably attributed to the strong interaction between Cu^(2+)ions and framework Al sites at high temperatures.

Double perovskite-type catalysts including La2 CoMnO6 and La2 CuMnO6 are first evaluated for the effectiveness in removing volatile organic compounds（VOCs）, and single perovskites（La CoO3, LaMnO3, and La Cu O3） are also tested for comparison. All perovskites are tested with the gas hourly space velocity（GHSV） of 30,000 hr^-1, and the temperature range of100–600℃ for C7H8 removal. Experimental results indicate that double perovskites have better activity if compared with single perovskites. Especially, toluene（C7H8） can be completely oxidized to CO2 at 300℃ as La2 Co MnO6 is applied. Characterization of catalysts indicates that double perovskites own unique surface properties and are of higher amounts of lattice oxygen,leading to higher activity. Additionally, apparent activation energy of 68 k J/mol is calculated using Mars-van Krevelen model for C7 H8 oxidation with La2 Co Mn O6 as catalyst. For durability test, both La2 Co Mn O6 and La2 CuMnO6 maintain high C7 H8 removal efficiencies of 100% and98%, respectively, at 300℃ and 30,000 hr^-1, and they also show good resistance to CO2（5%） and H2 O（g）（5%） of the gas streams tested. For various VOCs including isopropyl alcohol（C3H8 O）,ethanal（C2H4O）, and ethylene（C2H4） tested, as high as 100% efficiency could be achieved with double perovskite-type catalysts operated at 300–350℃, indicating that double perovskites are promising catalysts for VOCs removal.

In this work a novel anode configuration consisting of an iron mesh double layer is proposed for the electrochemical treatment of wastewater. The removal of Reactive Black 5 dye（RB5） from synthetic contaminated water was used as a model system. At a constant anode surface area, identical process operating parameters and batch process mode, the iron mesh double layer electrode showed better performance compared to the conventional single layer iron mesh. The double layer electrode was characterized by RB5 and chemical oxygen demand（COD） removal efficiency of 98.2% and 97.7%, respectively, kinetic rate constant of 0.0385/min, diffusion coefficient of 4.9 × 10^（-5）cm^2/sec and electrical energy consumption of 20.53 kWh/kgdye removed. In the continuous flow system, the optimum conditions suggested by Response Surface Methodology（RSM） are： initial solution p H of 6.29,current density of 1.6 m A/cm^2, electrolyte dose of 0.15 g/L and flow rate of 11.47 m L/min which resulted in an RB5 removal efficiency of 81.62%.
