In this study, we prepared the nitrogen-containing carbon spheres with mesopore processed by a facile polymerization-induced colloid aggregation method including carbonization in order to investigate the characterization and the effect on their carbon dioxide adsorption behaviors. The carbonization temperature was varied in the range of $600^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$. The nitrogen contents of the mesoporous carbon sphere were characterized using XPS. The carbon dioxide adsorption capacities of the prepared mesoporous carbon sphere were determined by the amounts of carbon dioxide adsorptions at 298 K and 1.0 atm. The results showed that the prepared mesoporous carbons were highly effective for the carbon dioxide adsorption due to the increasing the affinity of the basic functionalities of adsorbent surface to acidic carbon dioxide. Maximum adsorption capacities of carbon dioxide at $25^{\circ}C$ were achieved up to 106 mg/g.

In this study, we prepared the magnesium oxide decorated ordered mesoporous carbons processed by the reduction of magnesium oxide precursor on the CMK-3 surfaces in order to investigate the characterization and the effect on their carbon dioxide adsorption behaviors. The magnesium contents of the prepared samples were characterized using XPS. The textural properties of the prepared samples were investigated by $N_2$/77 K adsorption isotherms by BET equation. The carbon dioxide adsorption capacities of the prepared samples were investigated by the amounts of carbon dioxide adsorptions at 298 K and 1.0 atm. The results showed that the magnesium oxide on the CMK-3 surface enhanced interaction between carbon dioxide and adsorbents. Consequently, it was found that the magnesium oxide led to an increase in the carbon dioxide adsorption capacity of the CMK-3.

The scope of this work investigates the relationship between the amount of oxygen-functional groups and hydrogen adsorption capacity with different concentrations of phosphoric acid. The amount of oxygen-functional groups of activated carbons (ACs) is characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The effects of chemical treatments on the pore structures of ACs are investigated by $N_2$/77 K adsorption isotherms. The hydrogen adsorption capacity is measured by $H_2$ isothermal adsorption at 298 K and 100 bar. In the results, the specific surface area and pore volume slightly decreased with the chemical treatments due to the pore collapsing behaviors, but the hydrogen storage capacity was increased by the oxygen-functional group characteristics of AC surfaces, resulting from enhanced electron acceptor-donor interaction at interfaces.

In order to predict the dynamic behaviors of uranium and cobalt in a fixed bed at various influent pH values of liquid waste, the adsorption system was regarded as multi-component adsorption between each ionic species in a solution. Langmuir isotherm parameters of each species were extracted by incorporating equilibrium data with the solution chemistry of uranium and cobalt using IAST. Prediction results were in good agreement with the experimental data, except for a high concentration and pH. Although there was some limitations in predicting the cobalt adsorption, this method may be useful in analyzing a complex adsorption system where various kinds of ionic species exist in a solution.

The interactions between four Keggin-type POMs (${SiW_{12}O_{40}}^{4-},\;{PW_{12}O_{40}}^{3-},\;{SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-},\;and\;{PMo_{12}O_{40}}^{3-}$) and glassy carbon (GC) and highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surfaces are investigated in a systematic way. Electrochemical results show that molibdate series POMs adsorb relatively stronger than tungstate POMs on GC and HOPG surfaces. Adsorption of POMs on HOPG electrode surfaces is relatively stronger than on GC surfaces. ${SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-}$ species exhibits unique adsorption behaviors on HOPG surfaces. Surface-confined ${SiMo_{12}O_{40}}^{4-}$ species on HOPG surfaces exhibit unique adsorption behaviors and inhibit the electron transfer from the solution phase species. The catalytic activity of the surface-confined POMs for hydrogen peroxide electroreduction is also examined, where ${PW_{12}O_{40}}^{3-}$ species adsorbed on GC surfaces exhibits the highest catalytic efficiency among the investigated POM modified electrode systems.

Objectives In this study, we investigated the influence of ionic strength and natural organic matter (NOM) on aggregation and soil adsorption of citrate-coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Methods Time-resolved dynamic light scattering measurements and batch adsorption experiments were used to study their aggregation and soil adsorption behaviors, respectively. Results The aggregation rate of AgNPs increased with increasing ionic strength and decreasing NOM concentration. At higher ionic strength, the AgNPs were unstable, and thus tended to be adsorbed to the soil, while increased NOM concentration hindered soil adsorption. To understand the varying behaviors of AgNPs depending on the environmental factors, particle zeta potentials were also measured as a function of ionic strength and NOM concentration. The magnitude of particle zeta potential became more negative with decreasing ionic strength and increasing NOM concentration. These results imply that the aggregation and soil adsorption behavior of AgNPs were mainly controlled by electrical double-layer repulsion consistent with the Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory. Conclusions This study found that the aggregation and soil adsorption behavior of AgNPs are closely associated with environmental factors such as ionic strength and NOM and suggested that assessing the environmental fate and transport of nanoparticles requires a thorough understanding of particle-particle interaction mechanisms.

Graphene is the thinnest known materials in the universe and the strongest ever measured. Graphene has emerged as an exotic material of the 21st century and received world-wide attention due to its exceptional charge transport, thermal, optical, mechanical, and adsorptive properties. Recently, graphene and its derivatives are considered promising candidates as adsorbent for $H_2$ storage, $CO_2$ capture, etc. and as the sensors for detecting individual gas molecule. The main purpose of this review is to comprehensive the synthesis method of graphene and to brief the adsorption behaviors of graphene and its derivatives.

In this work, the amine grafting treated activated carbons were studied for carbon dioxide adsorbent. The surfaces of activated carbon were functionalized by 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane, which was subsequently grafted with amine compounds tris-(2-aminoethyl)amine and tri-ethylenetetramine and subjected to comparison. The surface functional groups of the amine grafted activated carbons were characterized using XPS. The textural properties of the amine grafted activated carbons were analyzed by $N_2$/77 K isotherms. Carbon dioxide adsorption behaviors of the amine grafted activated carbons were examined via the amounts of carbon dioxide adsorption at 298 K and 1.0 atm. From the results, tris-(2-aminoethyl)amine grafted activated carbons showed 43.8 $cm^3$/g of carbon dioxide adsorption while non-treated activated carbons and triethylenetetramine grafted activated carbons showed less carbon dioxide adsorption. These results were thought to be due to the presence of isolated amine groups in the amine compounds. Tris-(2-aminoethyl)amine grafted activated carbons have basic features that result in the enhancement of adsorption capacity of the carbon dioxide molecules, which have an acidic feature.

In this work, the adsorption behaviors of activated carbons (ACs) containing chelating functional groups were studied in $CO_2$ removal. The ACs were modified by pyrolysis of peroxide and glycidyl methacrylate graft polymerization in order to induce chelating functional groups, such as diethylenetriamine groups on the AC surfaces. The surface functional groups of the ACs were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The textural properties of the ACs were analyzed by $N_2$/77 K isotherms. Adsorption behaviors of the ACs were observed in the amounts of $CO_2$ adsorption. From the results, we found that the chelating functional groups on the AC surfaces led to enhance selectivity and chemisorption on $CO_2$ adsorption in spite of decreasing the physical adsorption properties.
