Publication Open Access M(II)-Al-Fe layered double hydroxides synthesized from aluminum saline slag wastes and catalytic performance on cyclooctene oxidation(Elsevier, 2022) Santamaría Arana, Leticia; Oliveira-Garcia, L.; Faria, Emerson H. de; Ciuffi, Katia J.; Vicente, Miguel Ángel; Korili, Sophia A.; Gil Bravo, Antonio; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaAluminum was extracted from saline slags via an alkaline method and employed in the synthesis of Layered Double Hydroxides (LDH) with various M2+ cations (Co, Mg, Ni and Zn), while Al and Fe were the M3+ cations, using the co-precipitation method and a M2+/M3+ 2:1 ratio. The structural characterization of the samples was performed with powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nitrogen physisorption at 77 K, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Their catalytic performance was tested for the oxidation of olefins (cyclooctene) and their biomimetic potential was analyzed. Results show a great selectivity towards epoxides with no other products obtained. Reaction yields followed the descending order Co4AlFe, Zn4AlFe, Ni4AlFe, and Mg4AlFe, the sample with cobalt as M2+ converting up to 85% of cyclooctene.Publication Open Access Zn-Ti-Al layered double hydroxides synthesized from aluminum saline slag wastes as efficient drug adsorbents(Elsevier, 2020) Santamaría Arana, Leticia; López Aizpún, María; García Padial, Marcos; Vicente, Miguel Ángel; Korili, Sophia A.; Gil Bravo, Antonio; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Ciencias; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, PI017-PI039 CORRAL; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThis work reports the synthesis of Zinc-Titanium-Aluminum (ZnTiAl) layered double hydroxides (LDH) with various proportions of Al[sbnd]Ti and a Zn/(Al[sbnd]Ti) molar ratio of 3:1 by the co-precipitation method. Two series, made with commercial aluminum (Al) and aluminum extracted from saline slags (Al*), have been considered. Structural characterization and comparison of the two series has been made using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Nitrogen physisorption at 77 K, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Thermogravimetry measurements. The adsorption capacity of diclofenac and salicylic acid, as examples of emergent pollutants, by the different LDH on batch and fixed-bed column experiments has been analyzed. The effect of various parameters, such as the pH, the initial concentration of pollutant, the mass of adsorbent and the contact time, on the sorption behavior were studied and compared. The contact time to attain equilibrium for maximum adsorption was found to be between 100 and 400 min. The kinetic and equilibrium results were correlated to several adsorption and isotherm equation models. The synthesized materials were more effective in removing diclofenac than salicylic acid, being Zn6Al*2 the hydrotalcite that showed the highest adsorption capacity. The results showed a new application of a material obtained from the valorization of an industrial waste such as aluminum saline slags.
