Abstract

In this study, electrolyte membranes based on polystyrene acrylonitrile (SAN) for Direct Methanol Fuel Cell applicationwere prepared. The preparation was carried out in two steps. The first step was introduction of additives, silicaand zeolite, as reinforcing agent on SAN, to obtain silica-reinforced SAN membrane, specified as SAN-Si, andzeolite-reinforced SAN membranae, specified as SAN-Z. The two reinforced membranes were then subjected tosulphonation using sulphuric acid, and the sulphonated membranes are specified as S-SAN-Si and S-SAN-Z,respectively. The characteristics of the membrane were described in terms of the degree of sulphonation, ionicconductivity, methanol permeability, and percentage of swelling in water and methanol. The results obtaineddemonstrated that additives result in significant reduction of methanol crossover, as reflected by lower values ofmethanol permeability than that obtained for the membrane without additive. It was also found that zeolite functionsrelatively better than silica. For zeolite-modified membrane (S-SAN-Z) the ionic conductivity of 10.05 x 10 -6 S/cmwas achieved. The membrane also marked by methanol permeability of 0.52 x 10 -6, percentage of swelling of 5.12%in water and 2.58% in methanol. Thermal analysis using DSC technique revealed changes in glass transition fromthe original sample, in which the glass transition of the original sample, SAN, (55 0C), sulphonated SAN, S-SAN,(83.360C), silica-modified membrane S-SAN-Si (79.860C), and zeolite-modified membrane S-SAN-Z (79.290C). Additionof additive was also found to influence the surface characteristics of the membranes as revealed by SEM analysis,in which the surface changed from smooth for the original sample into rough for the reinforced samples with bothadditives.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the removal of tartrazine dye & tetracycline antibiotic and hydrogen (H2) production simultaneously through the hybrid electrocoagulation-photocatalytic process using g-C3N4/TiO2 nanotube arrays (TiNTAs) nanocomposite. The g-C3N4/TiNTAs was used as the photocatalyst. The melamine as the precursor of g-C3N4 was varied to obtain the optimal loading on the removal of tartrazine dye & tetracycline antibiotic and hydrogen (H2) production simultaneously. The integrated acrylic photoreactor was equipped with two 250-W mercury lamps. The nanotubular morphology of TiNTAs and nanostructure features of g-C3N4/TiNTAs were examined using FESEM/EDX and HR-TEM/SAED. The XRD patterns indicated the composition of TiNTAs, confirming the presence of anatase and rutile crystalline phases. UV-Vis DRS also showed a redshift in the composite absorbance and a reduced bandgap with g-C3N4 introduction. The results showed that when tartrazine and tetracycline were treated simultaneously, tartrazine was more dominantly degraded compared to tetracycline. In mixed pollutant system condition, the H2 production increased by 17.0% and 41.1% compared to single pollutant system of tartrazine and tetracycline, respectively. The photocatalyst used in the hybrid process was the g-C3N4/TiNTAs (3 g) which provide the optimum H2 production.

Abstract

The primary focus of this research is to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the photoanode based of titania nanotubes in the photoelectrocatalytic process, which enables the simultaneous generation of hydrogen and degradation of ammonia. The modification process involved the incorporation of nitrogen dopant during anodization and sensitization of CuO through Successive Ionic Layer Adsorption Reaction (SILAR). The results of this study showed that the introduction of N dopant led to a significant enhancement in both the ammonia elimination and the hydrogen production, as evidenced by 3N-TiNTAs achieving 74.4% and 561 mmol/m2, respectively. Meanwhile, the highest hydrogen production was observed with 7CuO-TiNTAs at 910.14 mmol/m2. The study revealed that N-TiNTAs exhibited superior performance in ammonia degradation; while CuO-TiNTAs showed higher hydrogen production rates. Furthermore, the mechanistic aspects of the study were also thoroughly examined.

Abstract

The study aims to evaluate the removal of tartrazine (TZ), tetracycline (TC), and a combination of both TZ+TC and hydrogen (H2) production simultaneously using WO3/g-C3N4/TiNTAs (W-CN-TiNT) nanocomposites. The processes used in this study were Electrocoagulation (EC), photocatalysis (PC), and a combination of photocatalysis-electrocoagulation (PC-EC) simultaneously. The synthesis of W-CN-TiNT nanocomposites was carried out using the in-situ Anodization (IA) method, which was then tested for its performance in the PC and PC-EC processes. The nanomaterials were characterized by various techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS), field emission scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (FESEM-EDX), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy with selected area electron diffraction (HRTEM-SAED), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and photocurrent measurements. In the PC process, liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS), UV-Vis spectrophotometer, and gas chromatography (GC) were used to assess the efficiency of pollutant removal and H2 production. The results show that TZ is removed more easily than TC during the PC process, and the pollutant removal rate is correlated with H2 production. This observation also applies to the EC process and the PC-EC. The PC-EC process is superior to the single process of removing the TZ+TC pollutants. The proposed approach has proven to be effective for TZ+TC removal and in enhancing H2 production. The use of W-CN-TiNT nanocomposite as a photocatalyst is revolutionary. It significantly improves the process efficiency. This research provides a sustainable alternative solution that is environmentally friendly and can be applied for the treatment of pharmaceutical industrial wastewater containing complex organic compounds.
