Due to their significant impacts on the environment and health, there has been a growing environmental concern on sulfur oxide (SO x ), nitrogen oxides (NO x ) emissions to the atmosphere in the past two decades. Flue gas at coal-fired power stations is one of the main sources for the emissions of SO x and NO x . More and more stringent regulations on the emission of these pollutants come in force, which have put a high pressure on coal-fired power generators. Cost-effective and sustainable technologies for the reduction of such pollutants from flue gas have become increasingly important nowadays. However, even though numerous attempts have been made aiming at developing technologies for the removal of SO x and NO x , not much effort has been made on the simultaneous conversion of NO x and SO x in flue gas via selective catalytic reduction. This paper presents the study of simultaneous removal of SO 2 and NO over a synthesized Cu/Na-13X zeolite catalyst using carbon monoxide as a reducing agent. The characterization of fresh and spent catalysts was carried out using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) Surface Area Analyser. The experiments on the selective reduction of SO 2 and NO were carried out using a multi-functional catalyst testing rig with an online flue gas analyser. It has been found that zeolite has a good capability of SO 2 adsorption even under elevated temperatures. The removal efficiency was found to be 100% for SO 2 and 89% for NO over a Cu/Na-13X zeolite catalyst.
Through powerful solvothermal and facile ultrasonic synthetic strategies, two unique cluster-based lanthanide Lu and Y nanoporous metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully prepared, namely, {[Lu2(L)2]·2DMF·H2O}n (Lu-MOF) and [Y(L)(DMF)0.75]n (Y-MOF) (H3L = terphenyl-3,4'',5-tricarboxylic acid). In addition, both the morphologies and nanosizes of Lu-MOF and Y-MOF materials also have been deliberately tuned by adjustable ultrasonic conditions including irradiation time (40, 60, and 80 min) and power (70 w, 100 w). Currently, it is noted that the abuse of antibiotics such as ornidazole and ronidazole leads to great damage to human health, and therefore the development of highly effective and facile detection methods for ornidazole and ronidazole is quite important. Herein, to improve the fluorescent sensing sensitivity of antibiotics, Eu3+ and Tb3+ have been introduced into Lu-MOF (under a solvothermal preparation method) to fabricate a dual-emission hybrid material Eu3+/Tb3+@Lu-MOF through a postsynthesis strategy, which can be successfully applied as a self-calibrated ratiometric fluorescent sensor for ornidazole and ronidazole with high selectivity and sensitivity (the Ksv value for ornidazole is 1.0854 × 106 [M-1], and the Ksv value for ronidazole is 1.0595 × 107 [M-1]) and low detection limit values (2.85 nM for ornidazole and 26.7 nM for ronidazole). On the other hand, amoeba liver abscess (ALA) will easily lead to irregular fever, night sweats, and other tortured symptoms; C-reactive protein autoantibody (CRP Ab) is the important biomarker for the detection of ALA. Given this, Y-MOF (under the solvothermal preparation method) also has been successfully designed to combine FAM-labeled NH-ssDNA to construct the scarcely reported excellent hybrid FAM-labeled NH-ssDNA/Y-MOF sensing platform for the highly effective discrimination of CRP Ab with excellent sensitivity and selectivity in real samples such as human serum solution.
