Sono-solvothermal fabrication of ball-flowerlike Bi2O7Sn2-Bi7O9I3 nanophotocatalyst with efficient solar-light-driven activity for degradation of antibiotic tetracycline
摘要: A novel Bi2O7Sn2-Bi7O9I3 nano-heterostructure photocatalyst with the different weighted percentages and as I-type heterojunction, which acts as pseudo-type II heterojunction, were successfully synthesized using sono-solvothermal manner for the first time. The coupled nanophotocatalysts with various weighted contents of Bi2O7Sn2 and Bi7O9I3 were characterized with XRD, FESEM, EDX, DRS, BET-BJH and pHpzc analyses. Meanwhile, the photocatalytic activity of various nanocomposites was evaluated in the remediation of the antibiotic tetracycline after 90 min irradiation. Results depicted that the ball-flowerlike Bi2O7Sn2(60)-Bi7O9I3(40) nanophotocatalyst, as a mesoporous structure and the type I-heterostructure which appears as an efficient solar-light-driven pseudo-type II heterojunction, represented the best photocatalytic efficiency. This is addressed by the suitable absorption of light range, high separation of charge carriers and its large surface area which provide more active sites for absorption of tetracycline molecules. Furthermore, to elucidate the how the influence of various parameters on the photodegradation efficiency, the different experiments were conducted over Bi2O7Sn2(60)-Bi7O9I3(40). The high activity was obtained in the medium with pH = 6, catalyst loading = 1 g/L and tetracycline concentration = 35 mg/L. Moreover, the capable of reusability and reaction mechanism of improved photodegradation on mentioned photocatalyst were investigated.

Cobalt/Molybdenum Phosphides and Oxides Heterostructures Encapsulated in N-doped Carbon Nanocomposite for Overall Water Splitting in Alkaline Media
摘要: The development of designing and searching inexpensive electrocatalysts with highly activity for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is significant to enable water splitting as a future renewable energy source. Herein, we synthesis a new CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3 heterostructure coated by N-doped carbon shell (CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN) via thermal decomposing and phosphatizing the CoMoO4?0.9H2O nanowires encapsulated in N-doped carbon. At 10 mA?cm?2, this CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN nanocomposite exhibits superior electrocatalytic activity of low overpotentials of 296 mV for OER and 198 mV for HER in alkaline media. More importantly, we achieve a current density of 10 mA?cm?2 at 1.55 V by using this CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN as both cathode and anode for overall water splitting. This promising performance could be due to the high activity of CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3 and the good conductivity of external mesoporous N-carbon shell, which makes the CoP(MoP)-CoMoO3@CN nanowires as a competitive alternative to noble metal based catalysts for water splitting.

High-Performance Lignin-based Water-Soluble Macromolecular Photoinitiator for the Fabrication of Hybrid Hydrogel
摘要: Developing low-migration macromolecular photoinitiators (macro PIs) is significant to achieve the sufficient biosafety of photopolymers. In this study, for the first time lignin was introduced into photoinitiating systems. A novel lignin-based water-soluble macro PI (L-PEG-2959) was designed and synthesized by introducing water-soluble PEG chain and photoinitiating moiety into lignin backbone simultaneously. A series of characterizations were performed, including 1H NMR, FTIR, UV-Vis, GPC and TGA analysis, which indicated that L-PEG-2959 has excellent light absorption property within 200–400 nm, high initiating efficiency and superior water-solubility. Additionally, L-PEG-2959 could be compatible well with glycidyl methacrylate modified gelatin (Gel-GMA) and initiate the photopolymerization of Gel-GMA quickly under UV irradiation to form a chemical crosslinking hybrid hydrogel. Compared with the neat hydrogel made by Gel-GMA initiated with Irgacure2959, a commercial small molecular PI, the hybrid hydrogels presented controllable swelling property, increased mechanical strength, remarkably reduced precipitates and enhanced biosafety. The results indicated the great potential of lignin-based macro PIs in preparing biosafety photopolymers.

Using <i>Imaging</i> Flow Cytometry to Quantify and Optimize Giant Vesicle Production by Water-in-oil Emulsion Transfer Methods
摘要: Many biologists, biochemists, and biophysicists study giant vesicles, which have a diameter of >1 μm, owing to their ease of characterization using standard optical methods. More recently, there has been interest in using giant vesicles as model systems for living cells and for the construction of artificial cells. In fact, there have been a number of reports about functionalizing giant vesicles using membrane-bound pore proteins and encapsulating biochemical reactions. Among the various methods for preparing giant vesicles, the water-in-oil emulsion transfer method is particularly well established. However, the giant vesicles prepared by this method have complex and heterogeneous properties, such as particle size and membrane structure. Here we demonstrate the characterization of giant vesicles by imaging flow cytometry to provide quantitative and qualitative information about the vesicle products prepared by the water-in-oil emulsion transfer method. Through image-based analyses, several kinds of protocol by-products, such as oil droplets and vesicles encapsulating no target molecules, were identified and successfully quantified. Further, the optimal agitation conditions for the water-in-oil emulsion transfer method were found from detailed analysis of imaging flow cytometry data. Our results indicate that a sonication-based water-in-oil emulsion transfer method exhibited a higher efficiency in producing giant vesicles - about 10 times or higher than that of vortex- and rumble strip-based methods. It is anticipated that these approaches will be useful for fine-tuning giant vesicle production and subsequent applications.

Nanostructuring Strategies To Increase the Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting Activity of Silicon Photocathodes
摘要: Photoelectrochemical water splitting is a promising route for sustainable hydrogen production. Herein, we demonstrate a photoelectrode motif that enables a nanostructured large-surface area electrocatalyst without requiring a nanostructured semiconductor surface with the goal of promoting electrocatalysis while minimizing surface recombination. We compare the photoelectrochemical H2 evolution activity of two silicon photocathode nanostructuring strategies: (1) direct nanostructuring of the silicon surface and (2) incorporation of nanostructured zinc oxide to increase the electrocatalyst surface area on planar silicon. We observed that silicon photocathodes that utilized nanostructured ZnO supports outperformed nanostructured silicon electrodes by ~50 mV at open circuit under 1 sun illumination and demonstrated comparable electrocatalytic activity.

AIP Conference Proceedings [Author(s) GREEN DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE: ADVANCED AND EMERGING APPLICATIONS: Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Green Design and Manufacture 2018 - Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam (29–30 April 2018)] - Computational fluid dynamic analysis for solar powered water treatment device
摘要: Solar Powered Water Treatment Device (SWAD) is an effective and affordable water treatment device using low-cost treatment materials to treat stagnant water bodies such as lakes and ponds. SWAD is an environmental friendly device as it does not attached to any power source. The objective of this project is to design and develop 3D SWAD using 3D CAD software. Other than that, the objective is to simulate and model the water flow, spatial distribution of velocity and pressure of SWAD by Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD). CFD analysis was used to capture the efficiency of the SWAD by simulate and model the water flows, pressure and velocity. Based on the results, the maximum velocity magnitude was 2.57m/s at outlet of pipe. The velocity contour demonstrated has high speed at the pipe outlet. The pressure magnitude was in between 9246 Pa to 2609 Pa. The results of water quality parameters has proved that the water development and the direction of water flow of the SWAD can remove the pollutant efficiently. The results of vector plot, velocity contour, water flow streamline and pressure contour were effectively determined.

[IEEE 2018 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE) - Portland, OR, USA (2018.9.23-2018.9.27)] 2018 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE) - Net Zero Energy Houses with Dispatchable Solar PV Power Supported by Electric Water Heater and Battery Energy Storage
摘要: Over a year, net zero energy (NZE) houses produce and feed zero net metered electrical energy to the grid. Technical challenges, notably the 'duck curve' arise due to the fact that peak solar generation and load demand are seldom coincident. Common approaches to mitigate this limitation include the curtailment of solar power, and the use of storage. Surplus solar energy may be stored in a battery, which can subsequently be discharged to supply the home electricity needs when demand is in excess. In addition to batteries, less expensive electric water heaters, which are ubiquitous, can be modified as energy storage systems, functioning as 'uni-directional batteries' by virtue of their high thermal mass. This paper proposes the use of a hybrid energy storage system including both batteries and variable power electric water heaters in NZE residences. It is demonstrated that the hybrid energy storage system along with solar PV generation coordinated and virtual power plant (VPP) controls would reduce the required battery size and ratings while still harvesting the maximum solar energy potential. The proposed control strategy enables the NZE homes to produce dispatchable power or behave like controllable loads, and benefits at the utility level are demonstrated by interconnection of NZE homes with an IEEE 13 node test feeder system. The technology has the potential to mitigate all issues related to solar power variability.

[IEEE 2018 International Conference on Wind Energy and Applications in Algeria (ICWEAA) - Algiers, Algeria (2018.11.6-2018.11.7)] 2018 International Conference on Wind Energy and Applications in Algeria (ICWEAA) - Optimal Sizing Of Hybrid PV/Wind Based Water Pumping System Considering Reliability And Economic Aspects
摘要: In rural areas, provision of drinking water is one of the most important requirements of living conditions, and most of these isolated areas are not connected to the electricity grid. Conventional technology solutions provided by diesel generators are costly because of high maintenance and fuel supply costs and have drawbacks related to noise and especially greenhouse gas emissions. New technological solutions provided by solar and wind water pumping systems are experiencing high growth rates in recent years. Because of their high initial capital cost, many studies on their optimal sizing have been carried out. In this paper, an optimal sizing model based on Loss of Power Supply Probability (LPSP) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is proposed. The main goal is to deal with the optimal sizing problem of hybrid PV-Wind-based water pumping system taking into account the techno-economic aspects. The developed method uses the PSO algorithm to find the optimal configuration of the studied hybrid system insuring minimum cost and satisfying a desired loss of power supply probability. A computing code is developed and a flexible graphical interface is designed.

摘要: Morocco has an important solar energy potential, for this reason solar desalination is the appropriate and the least expensive method. The single basin type is widely used. However in comparison with other techniques, the conventional solar still with single basin has the lowest yield. A new attempt was fabricated to develop the solar stills production, using a cascade slope absorber plate with baffles. This work presents an experimental analysis of the new construction of solar still. The solar intensity and the ambient temperature are considered for testing the solar still to examine the effect of the new design of the absorber plate.
