Summary: In this study, reusable magnetic heterogeneous nanocomposites (SiO2/Fe3O4/Ag2WO4) were synthesized and applied as photocatalysts for visible-light responsive photocatalytic disinfection of E. coli. The synthesized materials were characterized using various techniques, and the SiO2/Fe3O4/Ag2WO4 photocatalyst showed improved antibacterial activity compared to other materials. Kinetics studies confirmed the higher disinfection rate of SiO2/Fe3O4/Ag2WO4, and the important roles of (OH)-O-center dot and H2O2 in the photocatalytic disinfection activity were demonstrated. Stability and reusability studies confirmed the good stability and easy magnetic separation of SiO2/Fe3O4/Ag2WO4.

Summary: The present work focuses on the hydrothermal synthesis of Bi2S3 and its doped materials for photocatalytic applications. The Ti-doped Bi2S3/1%NiO nanocomposite showed the highest photocatalytic efficiency among the synthesized samples, with an 80% elimination rate of methylene blue (MB) after 500 minutes of visible light illumination. The high photocatalytic activity can be attributed to the high BET surface area and p-n junction formed between Bi2S3 and NiO, as well as the increased band gap and improved transfer rate of photo-induced electrons due to Ti (IV) doping.

Summary: In this study, the synergy of Cu species and partially reduced tungsten (W delta+) stabilized over an oxygen-vacancy-rich WO3 enables highly efficient and selective conversion of methane (CH4) to formaldehyde (HCHO) under visible light. The copper species serve as the electron acceptor and promote photo-induced electron transfer, while the adjacent W delta+ species act as the hole acceptor and activate CH4. The synergy of the dual active sites enhances the overall efficiency and selectivity of the conversion process.

Summary: Visible light catalysis technology is a potential environmentally friendly marine antifouling technology. A Pt/Fe3O4@SiO2@WO3 structure was designed and assembled, with Pt/WO3 as the outermost shell layer for photocatalytic reactions.

Summary: Heterogeneous photocatalysis using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is a key solution for the remediation of toxic dyes and heavy metals from textile wastewater. However, MOFs suffer from low removal efficiency and poor water stability. The formation of multifunctional composites, through doping and functionalization, enhances water stability, visible light absorption, and reduces recombination between photogenerated species. This review focuses on the synthesis and application of various MOF composites for photocatalytic removal of organic and inorganic contaminants from water, highlighting the advancements and challenges in this field.

Summary: A low-cost new green adsorbent (GA) synthesized from tannin-rich pomegranate peel powder and formaldehyde showed promising results for the fast and selective recovery of Au (III). The optimal conditions for adsorption were determined using response surface methodology, and the GA exhibited a high adsorption percentage of 97% and a maximum adsorption capacity of 315.450 mg g(-1) for Au (III). The adsorption behavior was well-described by Freundlich and pseudo-second-order models, and the thermodynamic study revealed that the adsorption process was facile, endothermic, and spontaneous. The mechanism of adsorption was attributed to electrostatic interaction and reductive adsorption. These findings highlight the potential of low-cost and high-efficiency GA for the recovery of gold from waste printed circuit boards.

Summary: This work introduces a novel highly selective adsorbent, SMACNT-MIIP, for the simultaneous and selective adsorptive remediation of Hg(ii), Cd(ii), Cu(ii), and Ni(ii) heavy metal ions from contaminated water. The adsorbent's structural characteristics were studied using various analysis methods, and the optimal conditions for adsorption were determined. The results showed that SMACNT-MIIP had high selectivity and large maximum adsorption capacity for the target ions, even in the presence of interfering ions. The mechanism of heavy metal ion remediation using SMACNT-MIIP is mainly based on shape complementarity and surface complexation.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of the flexible spacer parity of a guest photoactive liquid crystalline dimer on the photonic bandgap features of the cholesteric and twist grain boundary smectic C phases of the host molecule. The results show that the parity of the photoactive dimer affects the width of the photonic bandgap and the blue-shift of the cholesteric phase. Additionally, the parity of the dimer also affects the layer spacing and two-dimensional periodicity of the liquid crystalline phases.

Summary: This work focuses on the thermochemistry of solvation of azeotropes. The enthalpies of dissolution of azeotropes in different mediums were determined, and the impact of the structure of the azeotropes on their properties in solution was discussed. A correlation between enthalpies of solvation and molar refraction was used to determine the vaporization enthalpies of azeotropes for the first time. The results were found to be consistent with literature data, obtained using direct and calculated methods. These findings contribute to the analysis of the structure-property relationships of azeotropes.

Summary: In this study, the interactions between doped and pristine coronenes and adenine nucleobases were investigated using Density Functional Theory. The optimal configurations, adsorption energies, charge transfer, and electrical properties of each complex were calculated. It was found that doped coronene had stronger adsorption strength and charge transfer compared to pristine coronene. The stability of the complexes was attributed to non-covalent interactions in the interactive region. The change in electrical conductivity of coronenes after adsorption suggested their sensitivity towards DNA bases. The predicted energy gap and prolonged recovery time for adenine-coronene configurations indicated the potential application of pristine/doped coronene in DNA detection.

The reaction mechanism involves complex reaction orders for the oxidant and the aromatic aldehyde, while the reaction order for Ru(VI) is one. The proposed mechanism includes two catalytic cycles and the formation and decomposition of complexes. Quantitative structure-activity relationship analysis showed that deactivating groups in the para-position enhance the process.

Summary: This study evaluated the adsorption of zolpidem on magnetic graphene oxide and synthesized magnetic graphene oxide adsorbents for zolpidem removal. The best magnetic nanoadsorbent was found to have a removal percentage of 87.07% at specific pH and temperature conditions. The results suggest that the removal of zolpidem is related to the surface chemistry of the adsorbent rather than the surface area of graphene oxide. The adsorbent showed excellent adsorption efficiency and magnetic behavior, making it a promising material for removing zolpidem from aqueous solutions.

Summary: This study examines the sensitivity of the thermal conductivity of water-based alumina nanofluids to changes in concentration, sphericity, and temperature. The results show that volume fraction and temperature have a significant impact on the thermal conductivity, while sphericity also needs to be considered. A support vector machine regression model was created to analyze the sensitivity of the thermal conductivity to different parameters. The findings indicate that temperature, sphericity, and volume fraction are the most sensitive variables.

Summary: This paper reports on the synthesis, structural characterization, spectral and nonlinear-optical properties of glass nanocomposites made of glass forming ionic liquid crystals and nanoparticles. The study reveals that by exciting the nanocomposites within their absorption band, a control over effective optical nonlinearities can be achieved, allowing the modification of the magnitude and sign of the effective nonlinear absorption coefficient. The proposed strategy using metal-alkanoates based glass-forming ionic liquid crystals and nanoparticles shows great potential for the development of nanophotonics and plasmonics technologies.
