Abstract

Recently, the Indonesian industry has been rapidly developed and affects the number of heavy metal ions waste such as iron (II). Iron (II) is dangerous to the environment because it is harmful to aquatic systems and carcinogenic. This research used activated silica/lignin to remove iron (II) in water. The activated silica/lignin was isolated from rice husk and activated by sodium periodate with a 10% weight of lignin in the range of pH of 2–5 at 55 °C. Then its specific surface area was analyzed with the methylene blue adsorption method. It is found that the condition in pH 2 showed the best isolation and activation condition to achieve the lowest impurity (cellulose and hemicellulose) in silica/lignin composite. Furthermore, the activated silica/lignin composite, isolated in pH 2, has a specific surface area of 366.6372 m2/g with the highest adsorption value of 1.1825 mg g-1 for iron (II) ions solution (5 ppm) within a contact time of 90 minutes. Moreover, the adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, also the adsorption isotherm fitted with the Freundlich model. This research showed that activated silica/lignin could be used as an alternative of environmentally friendly material for iron (II) removal in water.

Abstract

The increasing global demand for sustainable aviation fuels has driven extensive research on developing efficient heterogeneous catalysts. This study investigates the effect of different surface functionalization methods of mesoporous SBA-15 on its catalytic activity for the production of a C16 precursor of bio-aviation fuel. The SBA-15 surfaces were modified by two acid functionalization routes, namely sulfonation and sulfation, to enhance its surface acidity and catalytic activity. Sulfonation was carried out using 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS) followed by oxidation to obtain the SO3H–SBA-15 catalyst containing sulfonic acid groups (–SO3H), while sulfation using ammonium sulfate as a precursor produced the SO4–SBA-15 catalyst containing sulfate groups (SO42-). Both catalysts were characterized using NH3-TPD and acid-base titration to quantify the total acidity. The catalytic performance was evaluated through hydroxyalkylation-alkylation (HAA) reaction between 2-methylfuran (2-MF) and methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK) to synthesize a C16 bio-aviation fuel precursor, 5,5′-(4-methylpentane-2,2-diyl) bis(2-methylfuran) abbreviated as MPM. The results revealed that both modification methods effectively increased the total acid of SBA-15. However, the sulfated SBA-15 catalyst exhibited superior catalytic activity and stronger acid strength than the sulfonated one due to formation of more acid sites on its surface. Therefore, the sulfation route was identified as a more effective strategy for developing highly active solid acid catalysts. This research demonstrates the superior properties of sulfated mesoporous SBA-15 as a promising and sustainable heterogenous catalyst for converting biomass-derived platform chemicals into advanced C16 bio-aviation fuel precursors.

Abstract

The pulp industry is a type of industry based on natural materials, namely lignocellulose, which produces relatively large amounts of organic liquid waste. The use of various types of synthetic chemicals in the pulp production process results in waste from this industry being classified as hazardous and toxic waste. Various methods of liquid waste treatment can be applied, one of which is the Mediated Electrochemical Oxidation (MEO) method. The MEO method allows organic compounds in liquid waste to be oxidized into simple and relatively environmentally friendly inorganic compounds, such as carbon dioxide and water. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the potential difference between electrodes and time on the performance of the MEO method with lead electrodes in the treatment of organic liquid waste from the pulp industry. The potential difference between electrodes was studied at values of 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0 volts, while the electrolysis time in MEO was studied for 60, 90 and 120 minutes. The performance of the MEO method in the treatment of organic liquid waste was determined based on the degradation efficiency parameters. The results showed that the maximum degradation efficiency of organic waste was achieved when MEO was carried out at a potential difference between electrodes and an electrolysis time of 6.0 volts and 120 minutes. Under these MEO operating conditions, an organic waste degradation efficiency of 99.03% was achieved. AbstrakIndustri pulp merupakan salah satu jenis industri berbasis bahan alam, yaitu lignoselulosa, yang menghasilkan limbah cair organik relatif banyak. Pemanfaatan berbagai jenis bahan kimia sintetik pada proses produksi pulp mengakibatkan limbah dari industri tersebut termasuk sebagai limbah berbahaya dan beracun. Berbagai metode pengolahan limbah cair dapat diterapkan, salah satunya adalah metode Oksidasi Elektrokimia Termediasi (OET). Metode OET memungkinkan senyawa organik pada limbah cair untuk dioksidasi menjadi senyawa anorganik sederhana dan relatif ramah lingkungan, seperti karbon dioksida dan air. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menentukan pengaruh beda potensial antar elektroda dan waktu terhadap kinerja metode OET dengan elektroda timbal pada pengolahan limbah cair organik dari industri pulp. Beda potensial antar elektroda dipelajari pada nilai 3,0, 4,5 dan 6,0 volt, sedangkan waktu elektrolisis pada OET dipelajari selama 60, 90 dan 120 menit. Kinerja metode OET pada pengolahan limbah cair organik ditentukan berdasarkan parameter efisiensi degradasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa efisiensi degradasi limbah organik maksimum dicapai ketika OET dilakukan pada beda potensial antar elektroda dan waktu elektrolisis sebesar 6,0 volt dan 120 menit. Pada kondisi operasi OET tersebut dicapai efisiensi degradasi limbah organik sebesar 99,03%.

Abstract

The Chan–Evans–Lam coupling refers to a valuable method for constructing C–O and C–N bonds under mild conditions. Nevertheless, the development of efficient and reusable heterogeneous catalysts remains limited. In this study, we investigated copper-based metal–organic frameworks as catalysts for C–O bond formation between 4-methoxyphenylboronic acid and phenol. The study revealed that HKUST-1 exhibited a significant enhancement in performance when compared to Cu-BDC, yielding up to 86% at room temperature and demonstrating superior accessibility of Cu2+ active sites. A systematic optimization of reaction parameters identified NEt3 as the most effective base, DCM as the optimal solvent, and a mild temperature increase to 40 °C as the key factor enabling a maximum yield of 94%. Studies on recyclability demonstrated that HKUST-1 exhibited high catalytic performance over multiple cycles without significant structural degradation, as confirmed by PXRD analysis. Overall, this work highlights HKUST-1 as an efficient, robust, and reusable heterogeneous catalyst for Chan–Evans–Lam C–O coupling, thus demonstrating its potential for sustainable synthetic applications.
