Abstract
A novel, rapid, and facile method for one-step sonoelectrochemical synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (UEZ) was introduced in this study. The optimum operating parameters have been selected at a voltage of 7.5 V, KCl concentration of 0.5 M, and the reaction time of 60 min. The as-prepared UEZ were characterized by XRD, SEM, and HRTEM. It was found that the UEZ has a hexagonal wurtzite structure with high crystalline quality, good purity, a size range of 30-100 nm, and good photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue. This work provides a facile route for large-scale synthesizing ZnO nanoparticles via anodization.

Highly efficient ZnO/WO 3 nanocomposites towards photocatalytic gold recovery from industrial cyanide-based gold plating wastewater. Sci Rep 2023; 13:22752.

Abstract
Discharging the gold-contained wastewater is an economic loss. In this work, a set of ZnO/WO3 was facile synthesized by hydrothermal method in order to recover gold from the industrial cyanide-based gold plating wastewater by photocatalytic process. Effect of ZnO contents coupled with WO3 was first explored. Then, effects of operating condition including initial pH of wastewater, type of hole scavenger, concentration of the best hole scavenger and photocatalyst dose were explored. A series of experimental results demonstrated that the ZnO/WO3 nanocomposite with 5 wt% ZnO (Z5.0/WO3) depicted the highest photocatalytic activity for gold recovery due to the synergetic effect of oxygen vacancies, a well-constructed ZnO/WO3 heterostructure and an appropriate band position alignment with respect to the redox potentials of [Au(CN)2]- and hole scavengers. Via this ZnO/WO3 nanocomposite, approximately 99.5% of gold ions was recovered within 5 h using light intensity of 3.57 mW/cm2, catalyst dose of 2.0 g/L, ethanol concentration of 20 vol% and initial pH of wastewater of 11.2. In addition, high stability and reusability were observed with the best nanocomposite even at the 5th reuse. This work provides the guidance and pave the way for designing the ZnO/WO3 nanocomposite for precious metal recovery from a real industrial wastewater.

ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2023; 99:106584. [PMID: 37678068 PMCID: PMC10495625 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/01/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023]
Abstract
The photocatalytic technique has drawn far-ranging interests in addressing the current issues; however, its property suffers from the limited visible light response and rapid recombination of carriers. To address these issues, two specific approaches have been proposed to enhance the photocatalytic activity: (1) ultrasound-assisted synthesis has been utilized to prepare photocatalysts, resulting in refined grain size, increased specific surface area, and reduced photogenerated carrier recombination; (2) sonophotocatalysis and piezoelectric enhanced photocatalysis have been developed to accelerate the reaction, which utilizes the synergism between ultrasound and light. On one side, sonophotocatalysis generates cavitation bubbles which induce more reactive radicals for redox reactions. On the other side, ultrasound induces deformation of the piezoelectric material structure, which changes the internal piezoelectric potential and improves the photocatalytic performance. Currently, intensive efforts have been devoted to related research and great progress has been reached with applications in pollutant degradation, new energy production, and other fields. This work starts by elucidating the fundamental concept of ultrasound-assisted photocatalyst synthesis and photocatalysis. Then, the synergistic behavior between ultrasonic and light in ultrasonic-assisted photocatalysis has been thoroughly discussed, including pollutant degradation, water splitting, and bacterial sterilization. Finally, the challenge and outlook are investigated and proposed.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Oxide-stabilized emulsions generally require a surface functionalization step to tune the oxide wettability, often involving hazardous hydrophobizing agents. Here, we propose the in situ functionalization of ZnO in vegetable oils without the addition of any modifier, resulting in the one-step formation of highly stable Pickering emulsions. EXPERIMENTS The role of ZnO surface features was studied by modifying the particles' wettability through surface functionalization and by comparing different oil phases. The emulsion stability was assessed through aging tests, multiple hot-and-cold cycles, centrifugation, and addition of multiple electrolytes. FINDINGS While the wetting features of the functionalized oxide play a crucial role when the oil phase is methyl octanoate, emulsions based on vegetable oils form also using hydrophilic ZnO. During the emulsification, an in situ functionalization of bare ZnO particles takes place due to the fatty acids present in vegetable oil. These in situ-generated systems lead to stable emulsions showing < 2 μm-diameter oil droplets. The resulting emulsions display excellent stability over time (over seven months) and against temperature variations, mechanical stress and increased ionic strength. Finally, we demonstrate that this approach can be extended to a variety of vegetable oils and oxides with different morphologies.

Abstract
Intensification of ultrasonic processes for diversified applications, including environmental remediation, extractions, food processes, and synthesis of materials, has received attention from the scientific community and industry. The mechanistic pathways involved in intensification of ultrasonic processes that include the ultrasonic generation of cavitation bubbles, radical formation upon their collapse, and the possibility of fine-tuning operating parameters for specific applications are all well documented in the literature. However, the scale-up of ultrasonic processes with large-scale sonochemical reactors for industrial applications remains a challenge. In this context, this review provides a complete overview of the current understanding of the role of operating parameters and reactor configuration on the sonochemical processes. Experimental and theoretical techniques to characterize the intensity and distribution of cavitation activity within sonoreactors are compared. Classes of laboratory and large-scale sonoreactors are reviewed, highlighting recent advances in batch and flow-through reactors. Finally, examples of large-scale sonoprocessing applications have been reviewed, discussing the major scale-up and sustainability challenges.

Abstract
The papers devoted to the purification of aquatic environments from industrial contaminants with the use of ZnO based nanosized photocatalysts in the period of 2018–2020 are analyzed. The data published in these papers have made it possible to determine the dye (V) destruction rate used further as a photocatalytic activity criterion. As shown by the comparative analysis of the photocatalytic activity of the studies structures, the highest rates of water purification from industrial azodye contaminants are demonstrated by hybrid ZnO/Au structures. At a destruction rate of V = 10%/min, the ZnO/Au structures are much better than all the other considered types of catalysts due to their morphology, low recombination rate of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, and nanoparticles with an absorption spectrum close to the solar spectrum. The review of literature data shows that the greatest attention of researchers in the considered time period is focused on the problem of the purification of water sources from industrial contaminants and, first of all, azodyes. Essential attention is also paid to the technological approaches applied by the authors to increase the photocatalytic activity of ZnO based nanostructures.

Abstract
The degradation of diclofenac has been realized for the first time by a piezo-enhanced sonophotocatalytic approach based on ZnO. The sonophotocatalytic degradation showed a slight enhancement in the degradation of the parent compound, whereas strong synergistic effects were observed for the mineralization process when suitable ZnO morphologies are used, reaching 70% of complete degradation of 25 ppm diclofenac using 0.1 g/L ZnO in 360 min. Tests in a complex water matrix show enhanced diclofenac removal, outperforming a TiO2 benchmark photocatalyst. These promising experimental results promote this process as a good alternative to traditional degradation approaches for remediation of real water matrices.

Abstract
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are commonly found in indoor spaces (e.g., homes or offices) and are often related to various illnesses, some of them with carcinogenic potential. The origins of VOC release in the indoor environment are in office products, building materials, electronics, cleaning products, furniture, and maintenance products. VOC removal can be done based on two types of technologies: adsorption in specific materials and decomposition via oxidative processes. The present article reports the development and photocatalytic activity of two heterostructures (Cu2S/WO3 and Cu2S/SnO2) used for indoor air decontamination. The acetaldehyde removal rate is discussed in correlation with the S-scheme mechanisms established between the heterostructure components but also comparatively with the bare catalysts' activity. Acetaldehyde was considered as a VOC reference because it was found by the International Agency for Research on Cancer to be one of the most frequent air toxins with potential carcinogenic effects. The samples contained monoclinic WO3, tetragonal SnO2, and orthorhombic Cu2S crystalline structures. The Cu2S crystallite size in the heterostructure varied from 75.9 to 82.4 Å, depending on the metal oxide substrate. The highest photocatalytic efficiency (75.7%) corresponded to Cu2S/SnO2, with a constant rate of 0.106 s-1 (which was three times faster than WO3 or SnO2 and seven and a half times faster than Cu2S).

Abstract
The ultrasound-assisted preparation of a curcumin-loaded metal organic framework (MOF) UiO-66-NH2 stabilized Pickering emulsion system was carried out in this study. A 3-level-4-factor Box–Behnken design (BBD) and response surface methodology (RSM) analysis were employed to systematically evaluate the effect of different experimental parameters (i.e., ultrasonic power, ultrasonic time, oil content, and MOF content) on curcumin loading capacity (LC) and encapsulation efficiency (EE). The results indicated that ultrasonic power and MOF content significantly affected LC and EE, whereas ultrasonic time and oil content had little effect. A mathematical model for optimizing the preparation of emulsion systems was established. Based on the ridge max analysis, an optimal condition for the newly developed curcumin-loaded MOF-Pickering emulsion was identified, i.e., ultrasonic power 150 W, ultrasonic time 11.17 min, oil content 20.0%, and MOF content 1.10%. At this condition, the LC and EE of curcumin obtained from the experiment reached 7.33% ± 0.54% and 56.18% ± 3.03%, respectively, which were within the prediction range of LC (7.35% ± 0.29%) and EE (54.34% ± 2.45%). The emulsion systems created in this study may find new applications for the delivery of bioactive compounds in food and pharmaceutical areas.
