Summary: By directly growing Zn-Al LDH films on aluminum foams, the method successfully removed fluoride ions from water, achieving a maximum absorption efficiency of approximately 70% and reducing the fluoride concentration from 3 mg/L to below 1.1 mg/L. This simple and efficient method effectively addressed the issue of difficult separation of LDH powders.

Summary: Nitrate-loaded Zn/Al, Mg/Al, and Mg-Zn/Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) were synthesized for slow-release of nitrate ions. Sodium alginate was used to encapsulate Mg/Al LDH to further slow down the release. The slow release properties of LDHs were evaluated in tap water, soil solution, and plant growth experiments. The LDHs were found to supply adequate nitrate to plants while maintaining availability over extended periods, and also demonstrated the ability to increase soil pH.

Summary: The different morphologies of Zn-Al LDHs exhibit varied adsorption behaviors towards humic acid in synthetic solutions and natural water, indicating different adsorption mechanisms involved. The comparison shows that FLDHs have superior adsorption capability for removing HA from synthetic solutions, while MLDHs have higher adsorption capacity for natural organic matters in natural water samples containing co-existing ions. The pseudo-second-order kinetics model and Longmuir isotherm model can adequately interpret the HA adsorption process for the studied adsorbents, which also exhibit good regeneration and recycling abilities.

Summary: Incorporating Mg or Zn into NiAl-LDH for reconstruction using a memory effect improved the catalytic activity and stability in the dry reforming of Biogas. The washing step significantly affected LDH reconstruction, with different metals influencing the properties of the materials. Ni-Zn alloy formation in Zn-reconstructed catalysts led to the best performance in methane and carbon dioxide conversion with a H-2/CO ratio of approximately 2.

Summary: A novel method was developed to fabricate a protective superhydrophobic LDH film on a Zn-Al alloyed surface of AZ31 Mg alloy. The film provided corrosion and mechanical protection for the substrate magnesium alloy, while additional modification allowed for changing the surface properties to super-hydrophobicity. Experimentally verified long-term anti-corrosion performance, super-hydrophobicity, wear resistance, chemical stability, and adhesion strength of the modified LDH film.

Summary: The study investigates the effectiveness of hydrotalcite as an adsorbent for nitrate and nitrite ions retention, showing that hydrotalcite (HT3) has good adsorption capacity without pH adjustment. The Langmuir model provides a better fit to experimental data for nitrates and nitrites adsorption. Adsorption capacity increases with decreasing mass of the adsorbent and increasing initial concentration of ions.
