Different series of transition metal catalysts supported on Al2O3 were prepared by the impregnation method. The catalytic activity was measured in a batch reactor with ozone as the oxidizing reagent. The experimental results indicate that Cu/Al2O3 has a very effective catalytic activity during the ozonation of organic pollutants in water. The optimum conditions for preparing Cu/Al2O3 were systematically investigated with the orthogonal testing method. Furthermore, the results also show that the surface properties of catalyst are not compulsory for effective oxidation.
Cu(Ⅱ)-Molecularly imprinted polymer was prepared by the emulsion polymerization approach by using oleic acid and divinylbenzene as the functional monomer and the cross-linker separately.The results show that the imprinted polymer adsorbed Cu(Ⅱ)in water with a high velocity and favorable selectivity through copper ion entering into its cavity and replacing hydrogen of hydroxyl group.Autosorb instrument was used to examine the properties and structure of the imprinted polymer.Many holes in surface of the Cu(Ⅱ)-molecule imprinted polymer which possess high availability are filled because of adsorption.
