Abstract
Alkali metal potassium was beneficial to the electronic regulation and structural stability of transition metal oxides. Herein, K ions were introduced into manganese oxides by different methods to improve the degradation efficiency of toluene. The results of activity experiments indicated that KMnO4-HT (HT: Hydrothermal method) exhibited outstanding low-temperature catalytic activity, and 90% conversion of toluene can be achieved at 243°C, which was 41°C and 43°C lower than that of KNO3-HT and Mn-HT, respectively. The largest specific surface area was observed on KMnO4-HT, facilitating the adsorption of toluene. The formation of cryptomelane structure over KMnO4-HT could contribute to higher content of Mn3+ and lattice oxygen (Olatt), excellent low-temperature reducibility, and high oxygen mobility, which could increase the catalytic performance. Furthermore, two distinct degradation pathways were inferred. Pathway Ⅰ (KMnO4-HT): toluene → benzyl → benzoic acid → carbonate → CO2 and H2O; Pathway ⅠⅠ (Mn-HT): toluene → benzyl alcohol → benzoic acid → phenol → maleic anhydride → CO2 and H2O. Fewer intermediates were detected on KMnO4-HT, indicating its stronger oxidation capacity of toluene, which was originated from the doping of K+ and the interaction between KOMn. More intermediates were observed on Mn-HT, which can be attributed to the weaker oxidation ability of pure Mn. The results indicated that the doping of K+ can improve the catalytic oxidation capacity of toluene, resulting in promoted degradation of intermediates during the oxidation of toluene.

Abstract
Biogenic isoprene is an important pollutant for regional air quality. Being ubiquitously distributed on the earth surface, manganese (hydr)oxides should play a vital role in the transformation of isoprene. Cryptomelane is a typical manganese oxide with isomorphous substitution of Fe for Mn, but less attention has been paid to its heterogeneous reaction with isoprene. When Fe3+ replaces Mn3+, K+ is depleted and Mn3+ is oxidized to Mn4+. In contrast, oxygen vacancies are formed when Fe3+ substitutes Mn4+. Fe substitution creates weak crystallites and abundant mesopores, resulting in the increase of isoprene adsorption. As found by theoretical calculations, the Mn4+-O2- bonds at the cross sections of the tunnels is more active than that on the outer wall of the tunnels. After the adsorption of isoprene, bridging carboxylate species and hydrogen-bonding water are produced and the surface octahedra are distorted, i.e., Mn4+O6 → Mn3+O6-δ. As the heat facilitates the breakage of Mn4+-O2-, the increase of environmental temperature enhances the oxidation of isoprene. The above findings shed light on the effect of Fe substitution in cryptomelane to enhance the oxidation of isoprene, and illustrates that heterogeneous reaction with isoprene impairs the transformation of other environmental substances on cryptomelane.

Abstract
This work offers a novel pathway to prepare cryptomelane manganese oxides nanosheets as an superior catalyst for the catalytic combustion of oxygenated volatile organic compounds. The tunnel cryptomelane manganese oxides nanosheets were prepared from layered birnessite via simultaneously tuning pH and molar ratio (ROK) of the redox-precipitation between oxalic acid and KMnO4. Thus, few-layered cryptomelane nanosheets possessing the most predominantly exposed (211) facet are generated at low pH (5.2-5.6), which intensifies the surface area of thin crystal cryptomelane nanosheets up to 177 m2g-1 and weakens Mn-O bonds. Moreover, high ROK results in low manganese average oxidation state (AOS), greater oxygen vacancies and better low-temperature reduction and oxygen mobility. Such features significantly maneuver the catalytic activity of the cryptomelane nanosheets catalysts for the complete oxidation of oxygenated volatile organic compound (e.g., 2-propanol, acetone) at low temperature (170-230 °C). Moreover, the catalysts show high stability for 48 h. The presented catalyst discloses an avenue to address current obstacles in the catalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds.

Abstract
OMS-2 is one of the most promising catalysts for carcinogenic benzene elimination, and single-type alkali metals are typically introduced into the OMS-2 tunnels to modify its catalytic activity. Here, we reported a novel approach for significantly increasing the catalytic activity of OMS-2 via the simultaneous introduction of K+ and Rb+ into the tunnels. The catalytic results demonstrated that K+ and Rb+ codoped OMS-2 showed catalytic activity for benzene oxidation that exceeded those of K+ and Rb+ single-doped OMS-2, as evidenced by enormous decreases (△T50 = 106 °C and △T90 > 132 °C) in catalytic temperatures T50 and T90 (which correspond to benzene conversion percentages of 50% and 90%, respectively). The origin of the effect of K+ and Rb+ codoping on the catalytic activity of OMS-2 was experimentally and theoretically investigated via 18O2 isotope labeling, CO temperature-programmed reduction, and density functional theory calculation. The higher catalytic activity of K+ and Rb+ codoped OMS-2 was attributed to its higher lattice oxygen activity as well as its higher oxygen vacancy defect concentrations compared to the single-doped OMS-2 cases.

Abstract
89Sr and 90Sr are both fission products of high radiotoxicity, which can be released in significant amounts in the event of a nuclear accident. Radiostrontium isotopes will follow calcium all along the food chain and, after ingestion, accumulate in the bones. Therefore, it is imperative to be able to determine 89Sr and 90Sr in raw milk samples in case of an accidental situation to evaluate the dose given by both radionuclides to the population. Several methods exist for conducting 89Sr and 90Sr determination. However, most of them use at least one chromatographic step to purify strontium. This, unfortunately, increases the analytical time before the results can be released to the authorities. In addition, they often use liquid scintillation counting to determine the 89Sr and 90Sr activities, a method which can handle only one sample at a time. Here we propose using synthetic tunnel manganese oxides such as cryptomelane and todorokite and layered metal sulfides to selectively extract strontium from fresh milk and raw urine in a batch sorption method. We found that the method is very quick and yields very pure sources of (radio)-strontium, which can be counted in a proportional counter. Data (counts per minute) from the counter were fitted to a mathematical expression enabling the simultaneous determination of 89Sr and 90Sr. Because a proportional counter often has several drawers, it is typically possible to measure up to 16 samples at a time. Since cryptomelane is a binding phase easily synthesized in a large quantity, we anticipate that this technique could be an interesting alternative to conventional solid phase extraction chromatography methods.

Abstract
The heavy metal ion adsorption performance of birnessite (a layer-structured manganese oxide) can be enhanced by decreasing the Mn average oxidation state (Mn AOS) and dissolution-recrystallization during electrochemical redox reactions. However, the electrochemical adsorption processes of heavy metal ions by tunnel-structured manganese oxides are still enigmatic. Here, tunnel-structured manganese oxides including pyrolusite (2.3 Å × 2.3 Å tunnel), cryptomelane (4.6 Å × 4.6 Å tunnel) and todorokite (6.9 Å × 6.9 Å tunnel) were synthesized, and their electrochemical adsorptions for Cd2+ were performed through galvanostatic charge-discharge. The influence of both supporting ion species in the tunnel and tunnel size on the electrochemical adsorption performance was also studied. The adsorption capacity of tunnel-structured manganese oxides for Cd2+ was remarkably enhanced by electrochemical redox reactions. Relative to K+ in the tunnel of cryptomelane, the supporting ion H+ was more favorable to the electrochemical adsorption of Cd2+. With increasing initial pH and specific surface area, the electrochemical adsorption capacity of cryptomelane increased. The cryptomelane electrode could be regenerated by galvanostatic charge-discharge in Na2SO4 solution. Due to the differences in their tunnel size and supporting ion species, the tunnel-structured manganese oxides follow the order of cryptomelane (192.0 mg g-1) > todorokite (44.8 mg g-1) > pyrolusite (13.5 mg g-1) in their electrochemical adsorption capacities for Cd2+.

Abstract
In the present study, the macroscopic sorption behaviors and microscopic immobilization mechanisms of Ni(II) at cryptomelane/water interfaces were explored using the combination of batch sorption technique, desorption procedure, theoretical simulation, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) analyses. The good simulation of the pseudo-second-order model on the sorption kinetics data suggests a driving force of chemical sorption rather than mass transport or physical interaction. The sorption trends and uptake mechanisms are obviously related to the solution pH, with cation exchange or outer-sphere surface complexation at an acidic pH of 4.0, inner-sphere surface complexation in both the edge-shared (ES) and double corner-shared (DCS) modes at a neutral pH of 7.0, and precipitation of α-Ni(OH)2(s) phase at a highly alkaline pH of 10.0. The gradual increase of Ni(II) sorption amount with solution temperature rising from 293 K to 333 K is consistent with the increased ratio of the weak DCS configuration. The research findings herein can help us better understand the migration and transformation trends of Ni(II) in the manganese mineral-riched aquatic environment.

Abstract
The total oxidation of trichloroethylene (TCE) in air at low relative humidity (RH=10%) in the presence of CO2 (520ppmv) was investigated in function of energy density using an atmospheric pressure negative DC luminescent glow discharge combined with a cryptomelane catalyst positioned downstream of the plasma reactor at a temperature of 150°C. When using Non-Thermal Plasma (NTP) alone, it is found a low COx (x=1-2) yield in agreement with the detection of gaseous polychlorinated by-products in the outlet stream as well as ozone which is an harmful pollutant. Introduction of cryptomelane enhanced trichloroethylene removal, totally inhibited plasma ozone formation and increased significantly the COx yield. The improved performances of the hybrid system were mainly ascribed to the total destruction of plasma generated ozone on cryptomelane surface to produce active oxygen species. Consequently these active oxygen species greatly enhanced the abatement of the plasma non-reacted TCE and completely destroyed the hazardous plasma generated polychlorinated intermediates. The facile redox of Mn species associated with oxygen vacancies and mobility as well as the textural properties of the catalyst might also contribute as a whole to the efficiency of the process.

Abstract
Fe-doped cryptomelanes were synthesized by refluxing at ambient pressure, followed by characterization with multiple techniques and test in photocatalytic degradation of phenol. The introduction of Fe(III) into the structure of cryptomelane results in a decrease in particle size and the contents of Mn and K(+), and an increase in the Mn average oxidation state (AOS), specific surface area and UV-vis light absorption ability. Mn and Fe K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy analysis indicates that some Fe(III) is incorporated into the framework of cryptomelane by replacing Mn(III) while the remaining Fe(3+) is adsorbed in the tunnel cavity. These Fe-doped cryptomelanes have significantly improved the photocatalytic degradation rate of phenol, with the sample of ∼3.04 wt.% Fe doping being the most reactive and achieving a degradation rate of 36% higher than that of the un-doped one. The enhanced reactivity can be ascribed to the increase in the coherent scattering domain size of the crystals, Mn AOS and light absorption, as well as the presence of sufficient K(+) in the tunnel. The results imply that metal doping is an effective way to improve the performance of cryptomelane in pollutants removal and has the potential for modification of Mn oxide materials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vernadite is a nanocrystalline and turbostratic phyllomanganate which is ubiquitous in the environment. Its layers are built of (MnO6)(8-) octahedra connected through their edges and frequently contain vacancies and (or) isomorphic substitutions. Both create a layer charge deficit that can exceed 1 valence unit per layer octahedron and thus induces a strong chemical reactivity. In addition, vernadite has a high affinity for many trace elements (e.g., Co, Ni, and Zn) and possesses a redox potential that allows for the oxidation of redox-sensitive elements (e.g., As, Cr, Tl). As a result, vernadite acts as a sink for many trace metal elements. In the environment, vernadite is often found associated with tectomanganates (e.g., todorokite and cryptomelane) of which it is thought to be the precursor. The transformation mechanism is not yet fully understood however and the fate of metals initially contained in vernadite structure during this transformation is still debated. In the present work, the transformation of synthetic vernadite (δ-MnO2) to synthetic cryptomelane under conditions analogous to those prevailing in soils (dry state, room temperature and ambient pressure, in the dark) and over a time scale of ~10 years was monitored using high-energy X-ray scattering (with both Bragg-rod and pair distribution function formalisms) and transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS Migration of Mn(3+) from layer to interlayer to release strains and their subsequent sorption above newly formed vacancy in a triple-corner sharing configuration initiate the reaction. Reaction proceeds with preferential growth to form needle-like crystals that subsequently aggregate. Finally, the resulting lath-shaped crystals stack, with n × 120° (n = 1 or 2) rotations between crystals. Resulting cryptomelane crystal sizes are ~50-150 nm in the ab plane and ~10-50 nm along c*, that is a tenfold increase compared to fresh samples. CONCLUSION The presently observed transformation mechanism is analogous to that observed in other studies that used higher temperatures and (or) pressure, and resulting tectomanganate crystals have a number of morphological characteristics similar to natural ones. This pleads for the relevance of the proposed mechanism to environmental conditions.

Abstract
Cryptomelane is a reactive Mn oxide and has been used in removal of heavy metal from wastewaters. Co-doped cryptomelane was synthesized by refluxing at ambient pressure and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy, and its performances for removal of Pb(2+) and Cr(3+) from aqueous solutions were investigated. Co doping has a negligible effect on the structure and morphology of cryptomelane but increases the specific surface area and Mn average oxidation state. Mn and Co K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) analysis shows that Co barely affects the atomic coordination environments of Mn, and distances of edge- and corner-sharing Co-Me (MeCo, Mn) pairs are shorter than those of the corresponding Mn-Me pairs, implying the replacement of framework Mn(III) by Co(III). These Co-doped cryptomelanes can quickly oxidize Cr(3+) to be HCrO4(-) and remove 45%-66% of the total Cr in the reaction systems by adsorption and fixation, and they have enhanced Pb(2+) adsorption capacities. Thus these materials are promising adsorbents for heavy metal remediation. The results demonstrate the design and modification of environmental friendly Mn oxide materials and can help us understand the interaction mechanisms of transition metals with Mn oxides.
