Treatment of oil sands process water by the ferric citrate under visible light irradiation

Zhijun Luo et al.

Summary: The environmentally-friendly treatment method based on photochemical reactions of ferricarboxylate complexes effectively degrades classical naphthenic acids (NAs) in oil sands process water (OSPW) under visible light irradiation, with degradation ratios depending on the initial pH of the OSPW. Ferric citrate has excellent visible light absorption ability and can produce both Fe2+ and H2O2 in situ, acting as a Fenton reagent to non-selectively degrade NAs.

Solar-activated zinc oxide photocatalytic treatment of real oil sands process water: Effect of treatment parameters on naphthenic acids, polyaromatic hydrocarbons and acute toxicity removal

Monsuru A. Suara et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of solar-activated zinc oxide photocatalysis on the degradation and removal of organic compounds in oil sands process water (OSPW), as well as the elimination of its acute toxicity. The results showed that the photocatalytic treatment effectively removed naphthenic acids (NAs) and polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in OSPW, and reduced its acute toxicity and immunotoxicity.

Microlens arrays enable variable-focus imaging

Minjing Li et al.

Summary: Microlens array (MLA) is an important optical element used in biomedical inspection, lab-on-a-chip devices, and lightfield cameras. However, traditional MLAs have only one focal plane, making it difficult to capture targets at different positions. To overcome this limitation, researchers have developed a planar multi-focus MLA (MF-MLA) using femtosecond laser wet etching and soft lithography techniques. The MF-MLA has high imaging ability and can easily capture targets at different positions.

Surface Microlenses for Much More Efficient Photodegradation in Water Treatment

Qiuyun Lu et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates that the photodegradation efficiency of micro-pollutants in water can be improved by using polymeric microlenses (MLs). The photodegradation efficiency is approximately linearly correlated with the sum of the intensity from all focal points of the MLs. ML arrays can enhance the photodegradation efficiency compared to heterogeneous MLs on an unpatterned substrate. MLs can be used to enhance water treatment and achieve faster photodegradation of micropollutants.
