The iron oxide ion exchanger Ferrix A33E was successfully modified with cerium(III) ions to obtain Ferrix A33E-Ce(III) providing much better sorption properties in relation to the As(V) species. The new material has been characterized using a number of techniques including scanning electron microscopy SEM, nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy XPS. At optimal pH 6 the main mechanism of arsenate adsorption on A33E-Ce(III) was electrostatic attraction and formation of monodentate and bidentate surface complexes. The process was exothermic and spontaneous. Unlike the unmodified ion exchanger, A33E-Ce(III) could completely remove arsenic from the arsenate solution at a concentration of 50 mg/dm3 in 60 minutes. Furthermore, the maximum sorption capacity for As(V) was determined to be 60.41 mg/g which almost doubled after modification with cerium(III) ions. It is also worth noting that even after three cycles of sorption/desorption A33E-Ce(III) exhibited a higher sorption capacity than unmodified A33E before the arsenate adsorption. It can be concluded that modifying the sorbent with a small amount of cerium(III) ions boosts its sorption properties significantly, improves effectiveness of water purification and reduces the overall operation cost

The purpose of the work was to compare the sensitivity of autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms used in bioassay to lanthanum and cerium under the conditions of a model experiment with aqueous media. Using bioassay methods, the pre-lethal effects of La and Ce in heterotrophic Paramecium caudatum and Escherichia coli, as well as autotrophic Chlorella vulgaris and Nostoc linckia were determined. Model solutions of La2 (SO4)3∙8H2O and Ce2 (SO4)3∙8H2O were tested in the concentration range of 0.1–200 mg/l. As a result, it was shown that heterotrophic organisms are more sensitive to water pollution with La and Ce than autotrophic ones. According to the totality of experiments, cerium turned out to be more toxic than lanthanum. When planning the environmental studies of wastewater or reservoirs polluted with REE, it is recommended to focus on comparative sensitivity of bioassay methods, taking into account the test-functions used: bioassay for chemotaxis of P. caudatum > bioassay for changes in bioluminescence of E. coli (strain M-17) > bioassay for the content of chlorophyll а and intensity of lipid peroxidation in N. linckia > bioassay on the increase in the number of Cl. vulgaris.

The catalytic conversion of a model tar compound, namely: naphthalene contained in a simulated producer gas from wood gasification process was investigated. The sol-gel approach was used to create a mesoporous Cepromoted Ni/alumina catalyst with high surface area. A surface area of 333 m2g was achieved by calcination of the mesoporous catalyst (17 wt% Ni and 2.8 wt% Ce) under air conditions at 1123 K. The catalysts were characterized using the N2 adsorption-desorption, XRD, and SEM techniques, and their promotion effect on producer gas reforming and tar removal was studied under dry, steam, and partial oxidation conditions. The Ni-based catalysts effectively converted naphthalene and increased the proportion of H2 and CO in the reformed gas. Incorporating Ce into the catalyst increased the proportion of H2 and CO in the reformed gas, while lowering the amount of CH4 and CO2. In the absence of oxygen, catalytic reforming of the producer gas resulted in 79.6% naphthalene conversion, whereas catalytic partial oxidation conditions resulted in 99.1% naphthalene conversion.

Phosphor samples collected after crushing and sieving of discarded fluorescent lamps comprise approximately 31 % rare earth elements in the form of Y1.90Eu0.10O3, Al11Ce0.67MgO19Tb0.33, and Al10.09Ba0.96Mg0.91O17: Eu2+ phase. Direct leaching and mechanical activation assisted leaching are incapable of recovering Ce, Tb values from the Al11Ce0.67MgO19Tb0.33 phase. Heat treatment with NaOH was found successful for dissociation of Ce, Tb phase via substitution of rare-earth ion by Na+ ion to form rare earth oxide and water-soluble NaAlO2. Y, Eu, Ce, and Tb values were recovered from heattreated mass in a two-step leaching process followed by recovery from the leach solution by oxalic acid precipitation. Over 95 % extraction rate was attained after heat treatment at 400 °C with 150 wt-% NaOH for 1 h. It was found that Y, Eu containing phase does not take part in the heat treatment process whereas the Ce, Tb phase undergoes a solid-state chemical reaction with NaOH via product layer diffusion model with 41.5 kJ/mol activation energy. Approximately 15 g mixed oxide (purity >95 %) of Y (79 %), Eu (7 %), Ce (5 %), and Tb (4 %) could be recovered from 100 units of discarded FLs. Microwave treatment of phosphor and NaOH (50 wt-%) yielded approximately 42 % Y, 100 % Eu, 65 % Ce, and 70 % Tb recovery in just 5 min. Approximately 9 g of REO and 5 g of cerium enriched leach residue were recovered from the microwave route within 5 min and depicted high microwave potential application in the recovery of Ce and Tb values from waste phosphor sample.

W pracy zaprezentowano wyniki badania wpływu ilości domieszki (2% at. oraz 4% at.) oraz temperatury wygrzewania (300°C i 600°C) na zdolność do rozkładu oranżu metylowego przez nanocząstki dwutlenku tytanu domieszkowane cerem (TiO₂:Ce) w wyniku procesu fotokatalizy. Nanocząstki TiO₂ zostały wytworzone metodą zol-żel, przy użyciu TTiP jako prekursora. Zaobserwowano, że lepsze właściwości fotokatalityczne ma próbka domieszkowana mniejszą ilością ceru, co oznacza, że istnieje optymalna zawartość domieszki. Aktywność fotokatalityczna tej próbki wynosiła 16,7%. Wygrzewanie w wysokiej temperaturze miało negatywny wpływ na zdolności próbek do rozkładu barwnika, gdyż aktywność fotokatalityczna żadnej z wygrzanych próbek nie przekroczyła 4%.

This paper presents the results of the investigation of concentration of the dopant (2 at.% Ce and 4 at.% Ce) and high-temperature annealing (300°C i 600°C) on the decomposition of methyl orange by titanium dioxide nanoparticles doped with cerium (TiO₂:Ce) as a result of photocatalysis process. Methyl orange was decomposed by TiO₂:Ce nanoparticles, which were synthesized by sol-gel technique with using TTiP as a precursor. It was observed that the higher photocatalytic activity has been obtained by TiO₂ doped with smaller amount of cerium, which suggests the existence of the optimum dopant concentration. The photocatalytic activity of this nanoparticles was equal to 16.7%. Moreover, high-temperature annealing had a negative effect on TiO₂:Ce nanoparticles on decomposition ability, due to the fact that the photocatalytic activity of all annealed nanoparticles did not achieve 4%.

Pierwiastki ziem rzadkich jako domieszki optycznie aktywne w zakresie promieniowania wysokoenergetycznego znajdują coraz szersze zastosowania w układach wykazujących zjawiska termoluminescencji (TL) oraz optycznie stymulowanej luminescencji (OSL). Materiały takie są wykorzystywane do projektowania detektorów promieniowania jonizującego, mogących pracować nawet w przypadku najwyższych dawek. Obecnie wszystkie komercyjnie dostępne detektory TL i OSL są krystaliczne, podczas gdy szklane mogą stanowić obiecującą alternatywę. W pracy przeprowadzono pomiary termicznie i optycznie stymulowanej luminescencji w szkłach boranowych BaO-B2O3 domieszkowanych tlenkiem ceru. Stwierdzono, że wzrost zawartości domieszki w badanym materiale wpływa na zwiększenie wydajności procesu termoluminescencji i optycznie stymulowanej luminescencji.

Rare earth elements are widely used as active dopants in the range of high-energy radiation in many systems which exhibit thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) phenomena. Such materials are used to design ionizing radiation detectors which can measure even the highest doses. It should be noted that all of the commercially available TL and OSL dosimeters are crystalline, while glassy ones could be a promising alternative. In this research thermally and optically stimulated luminescence measurements are carried out for BaO-B2O3 glasses doped with CeO2. It was found that the increase of cerium oxide dopant increases the efficiency of thermoluminescence and optically stimulated luminescence.

In the present research work, crystallographic, optical, molecular, morphological and magnetic properties of Zn1-xCuxO (ZnCu) and Zn1-x-yCeyCuxO (ZnCeCu) nanoparticles have been investigated. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) coated ZnCu and ZnCeCu nanoparticles have been synthesized by chemical sol-gel method and thoroughly studied using various characterization techniques. X-ray diffraction pattern indicates the wurtzite structure of the synthesized ZnCu and ZnCeCu particles. Transmission electron microscopy analysis shows that the synthesized ZnCu and ZnCeCu particles are of spherical shape, having average sizes of 27 nm and 23 nm, respectively. The incorporation of Cu and Ce in the ZnO lattice has been confirmed through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Room temperature photoluminescence spectra of the ZnO doped with Cu and co-doped Ce display two emission bands, predominant ultra-violet near-band edge emission at 409.9 nm (3 eV) and a weak green-yellow emission at 432.65 nm (2.27 eV). Room temperature magnetic study confirms the diamagnetic behavior of ZnCu and ferromagnetic behavior of ZnCeCu.

In this paper, Co,Ce/Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 catalysts with various cobalt loadings for steam reforming of ethanol (SRE) were prepared by microwave-assisted hydrothermal and sol-gel methods, and characterized by XRD, TEM, TPR-H2, N2 adsorption-desorption measurements and cyclohexanol (CHOL) decomposition tests. High ethanol conversion (close to 100%) was obtained for the catalysts prepared by both methods but these ones prepared under hydrothermal conditions (HAp-H) ensured higher hydrogen yield (3.49 mol H2/mol C2H5OH) as well as higher amount of hydrogen formed (up to 70%) under reaction conditions. The superior performance of 5Co,10Ce/HAp-H catalyst is thought to be due to a combination of factors, including increased reducibility and oxygen mobility, higher density of basic sites on its surface, and improved textural properties. The results also show a significant effect of cobalt loading on catalysts efficiency in hydrogen production: the higher H2 yield exhibit catalysts with lower cobalt content, regardless of the used synthesis method.

Pure ZnO and Ce-doped (5 at.%) ZnO aerogels were prepared by dissociation of dihydrate zinc acetate and cerium nitrate in methanol, followed by drying in supercritical conditions of the solvent. The concentration of zinc acetate solution and the atomic ratio Ce/Zn were fixed at 0.2 mol/L and 0.05 mol/L, respectively. XRD results showed a hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO aerogel crystallites and a formation of a separate second phase of ceria cubic phase with fluorite structure and 7.4 nm in size. The introduction of cerium in the solution had a negative effect on the aerogel crystalline quality. The crystallites size was found to be 16 nm in pure ZnO and 27 nm in Ce-doped ZnO aerogels. The grains of Ce-doped ZnO aerogel had torus shaped morphology with hollow centers, but those of pure ZnO were flattened semispheres. The calculated values of different structural parameters showed that cerium ions introduced into the ZnO lattice occupied interstitial sites and Zn ions substituted Ce ones in ceria lattice during the formation process. FT-IR and UV-Vis absorption spectra have not revealed any particularities due to the presence of cerium atoms in ZnO, indicating that Ce (5 at.%) doping of ZnO crystallites synthesized in supercritical methanol did not strongly affect the optical gap of the semiconductor. Micro-Raman studies confirmed the formation of cubic fluorite structure ceria in ZnO aerogel and showed that Raman active modes of ZnO are amplified with the presence of ceria.

Copper and cerium partially substituted anionic clay was synthesized by the coprecipitation method. The XRD analysis and N2 adsorption at 77 K indicated that calcination destroys the layered matrix of the clay, giving rise to mixed oxides having a high surface area and mesoporous characteristics; SEM analysis showed that the new formed mixed oxides consist of ensembles of highly agglomerated, interconnected nanoparticles. It results from XPS that copper and cerium both contribute to establish the specific redox properties on the surface.

Purpose: In this work there are presented the investigation results of mechanical properties and microstructure concerning mainly intermetallic phases of the aluminium – titanium alloy with a defined content of 2 and 4 % of cerium addition. The purpose of this work was also to determine the heat treatment conditions for solution heat treatment of the investigation alloys. Design/methodology/approach: The reason of this work was to determine the heat treatment influence, particularly solution heat treatment time to the changes of the microstructure, as well to determine which intermetallic phases occur after the heat treatment performed, and how is the morphology of these particles. Findings: After solution heat treatment for 4 hours the structure changes. The grains are larger and no more uniform as showed before. The most stable intermetallic in the Al-Ti system is the Al3Ti phase. The solution heat treatment time should be greater than 4 hours to ensure a proper solution of titanium and cerium in the Al-á solid solution. Research limitations/implications: The investigated aluminium samples were examined metallographically using optical microscope with different image techniques, scanning electron microscope and also analyzed using a Vickers micro-hardness tester, also EDS microanalysis was made. Practical implications: As an implication for the practice a new alloy can be developed, some other investigation should be performed in the future, but the knowledge found in this research shows an interesting investigation direction. Originality/value: The combination of light weight and high strength Ti-based alloys is very attractive for aerospace and automotive industries. Furthermore, the presence of calcium cerium into existence new unknown phases as well can enhance the thermal stability of ternary Al-Ti-Ce alloy because of its higher melting point then Al-Ti.

A new, simple, sensitive, and fast spectrofluorimetric method for determination of nifedipine in pharmaceutical formulations has been presented. In the proposed procedure nifedipine was oxidized with Ce(IV) and the fluorescence of the produced Ce(III) was measured at 354 nm after excitation at 255 nm. The factors influencing oxidation of the drug were studied and optimized. Under the applied experimental conditions, the calibration plots were linear over nifedipine concentration range 0.05-2.0 mg L-1 The limit of detection was 0.015 mgL-1 and the relative standard deviation for 5 replicate determinations of nifedipine at 1.0 mg L-1 concentration level was 1.53%. Good recoveries in the range 95-104% were obtained in spiked samples. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of nifedipine in pharmaceutical formulations.
