Stwierdzono ilościowe wytrącanie szczawianów kobaltu(II) i manganu(II) (stężenia metali poniżej LOD: Co < 0,35 ppm, Mn < 0,27 ppm) w stężonym roztworze kwasu octowego (90% mas.), powszechnie stosowanym jako rozpuszczalnik w przemysłowych procesach utleniania p-ksylenu do kwasu tereftalowego. Obecność zanieczyszczeń typowych dla procesu utleniania p-ksylenu, czyli kwasu benzoesowego, kwasu bromowodorowego oraz jonów sodu nie miała negatywnego wpływu na powstawanie osadów. Obecność stałego kwasu tereftalowego w mieszaninie reakcyjnej miała pozytywny wpływ na proces odzyskiwania katalizatora. Zaobserwowano, że szczawiany tworzą aglomeraty na powierzchni stałego kwasu tereftalowego, co ułatwia oddzielenie osadu od cieczy macierzystej. Ponadto potwierdzono wysoką efektywność wytrącania w szerokim zakresie stężeń metali (50-1600 ppm). Wyniki pokazują, że strącanie kwasem szczawiowym jest skuteczną metodą odzyskiwania katalizatorów homogenicznych zawierających związki kobaltu(II) i manganu(II).

The article is devoted to the experimental determination of thermokinetic parameters of oil sludge thermal degradation using the model-free Ozawa-Flynn-Wall method in the presence of a nanocatalyst (nickel, cobalt and iron-supported microsilicate) by calculating Arrhenius kinetic parameters (activation energy and pre-exponential factor). The phase composition of the reflex microsilicate was established – 4.12; 2.51 Å – SiO2, nickel-supported microsilicate reflexes: 2.09; 1.48 Å – NiO, reflexes: 4.25 Å – SiO2 and acid numbers of microsilicate – 64 μmol/g of prepared nanocatalysts. Using the method of Brunauer, Emmett and Teller, the specific surface area of the microsilicate was established – 18.3 ± 0.3 m2 /g, the microsilicate with nickel applied – 20.9 ± 0.2 m2 /g and the adsorption isotherm of the prepared nanocatalysts (microsilicate with nickel, cobalt and iron). Thermokinetic parameters of thermal decomposition of oil sludge without a catalyst and with a catalyst at an increment of 0.9 are 99.0 and 93.3 kJ/mol nickel-supported microsilicate, 51.9 kJ/mol cobalt-supported microsilicate, 111.3 kJ/mol iron-supported microsilicate and non-metal-supported microsilicate 173.7 kJ/mol, respectively. The study of the kinetic parameters of pyrolysis of oil sludge using various catalysts makes it possible to assess their influence on the process of decomposition of organic components. The results of the experiments showed that the use of catalysts significantly affects the destruction of oil sludge. Dynamic thermal analysis at different heating rates studied the dynamics of oil sludge decomposition. The study of the effect of catalysts on the kinetic parameters of oil sludge pyrolysis is an important step in the development of new methods for the disposal of petroleum products and the reduction of their negative impact on the environment. The obtained experimental data on thermal degradation kinetics of oil sludge will find application in designing a reactor for the process of destructive hydrogenation of heavy hydrocarbon raw materials.

Chlorite-mica-quartz schist in the Gierczyn-Przecznica area in SW Poland contains polymetallic ores which were the source of tin and cobalt in the past. This mineralogical study revealed the presence of silver-bearing minerals including members of the tetrahedrite (Ag <3 apfu) and freibergite series (3 < Ag < 8 apfu), galena (0.26–1.48 wt.% Ag), and a phase with the chemical composition of Te-rich canfieldite Ag8Sn(S,Te)6. In Przecznica Sn-sulphides are represented by stannite while cobaltite is the most abundant host for cobalt, followed by Co-bearing arsenopyrite. Glaucodot, ullmannite and members of the löllingite-rammelsbergite solid-solution series (Fe,Ni,Co)As2 also contain cobalt but are scarce in the samples. An exposure in the “Psi Grzbiet” area is characterized by the presence of Ag, Ni, Sb and Te minerals accompanied by very small amounts of As-bearing phases (represented by arsenopyrite) while the mineralogical composition in the Przecznica area is characterized by an abundance of As phases and a lack of Sb minerals. Sulphur isotopes of sulphides from Przecznica are heavier than in most deposits related to the Karkonosze Granite intrusion, while their Pb isotope signature in galena suggests an Early Paleozoic pre-Variscan affinity rather than a Variscan one.

The elements are present in the environment. Moreover, they are used in pharmacy and the production of new materials used in medical applications. They are often as environmental pollutants. They can accumulate in organisms and induce toxic effects on the cellular level. HepG2, L929 and Caco-2 cell lines were exposed to known concentrations of chromium chloride, iron chloride, nickel chloride, molybdenum trioxide and cobalt chloride (200 or 1000 μ M used alone and in combinations). Concentrations of chromium, iron, nickel, molybdenum and cobalt in the cell lysate and the culture medium were determined by ICP-MS. Moreover, sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium concentrations were also measured. What is more, cells were observed under light and scanning electron microscope. The dose-dependent increase in the concentration of chromium, iron, nickel, molybdenum and cobalt in all cell lines after incubation with elements was observed. Potassium concentration decreases while sodium calcium and magnesium increase after incubation of cells with of mentioned elements. The incubation of cells with microelements induces cell morphology changes. The presented study shows the crucial role of tested microelements in the induction of cell death as a result of an imbalance of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium concentration inside the cell.

The development of novel cathode materials for low temperature solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) applications is one of the significant research areas in materials engineering. In the current work, composite cathode materials were prepared by two different modes and the fuel cell performance was assessed using a gadolinium-doped ceria (GDC) electrolyte. Nanocomposite cathodes were fabricated using a lanthanum strontium manganite oxide (LSMO) powder of a 50-100 nm particle size and Ba0.5Sr0.5(Co0.2Mg0.8)0.2Fe0.8O3 (BSCMF) powder of a 1 μm particle size. The cathodes were prepared as layered composites and mixed composites. The electrochemical performance of the symmetric cells was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at the intermediate temperature of 700°C using air atmosphere. The cathode film coating on the electrolyte was sintered at three different temperatures (900, 950 and 1000°C) and the cell performance was assessed at 700°C. Lower polarization resistance (RP) values were recorded for the cell produced at 900°C. The RP of the nano-composite cathodes was measured as lower (2.72 Ω-cm2 for the layered composites and 1.76 Ω-cm2 for the mixed composites) compared with LSMO. Hence, the results demonstrate the potential of using an LSMO-BSCMF composite in the mixed mode as a cathode for low temperature SOFCs to achieve a lower polarization potential.

Kobalt ze względu na swoje fizykochemiczne właściwości w formie metalicznej jest wykorzystywany przy produkcji stopów odpornych na temperaturę, będących magnesami trwałymi i odlewniczych. Dodatkowo szerokie zastosowanie znajdują sole kobaltu, które są stosowane przy produkcji pigmentów, sykatyw do farb olejnych oraz baterii. Kobalt metaliczny w formie drobnego proszku w kontakcie ze skórą może wywoływać odpowiedź alergiczną. Głównym zagrożeniem dla zdrowia pracownika są rozpuszczalne sole kobaltu, które zgodnie z rozporządzeniem Parlamentu Europejskiego i Rady (WE 1272/2008) są sklasyfikowane jako substancje rakotwórcze. Celem badań było opracowanie metody oznaczania kobaltu do oceny narażenia zawodowego w zakresie 1/10 ÷ 2 zaproponowanej wartości NDS. Metoda polega na pobraniu aerozolu kobaltu i jego związków zawartych w powietrzu na filtr, mineralizacji filtra w kwasie azotowym(V) i kwasie chlorowodorowym w podwyższonej temperaturze, a następnie oznaczeniu zawartości kobaltu w próbce z zastosowaniem absorpcyjnej spektrometrii atomowej z elektrotermiczną atomizacją (ET-AAS). Podczas wykonywania badań spełniono wymagania walidacyjne przedstawione w normie europejskiej PN-EN 482. Metoda umożliwia oznaczanie kobaltu i jego związków w powietrzu w stężeniach 0,0001 ÷ 0,002 mg/m³ dla frakcji respirabilnej. Zakres tematyczny artykułu obejmuje zagadnienia zdrowia oraz bezpieczeństwa i higieny środowiska pracy będące przedmiotem badań z zakresu nauk o zdrowiu i inżynierii środowiska.

Due to its physicochemical properties, cobalt in metallic form is used in the production of the following alloys: heat resistant, permanent magnets and foundry alloys. Moreover, cobalt salts are widely used in the production of pigments, oil drying agents and batteries. Metallic cobalt in the form of fine powder in contact with skin can cause an allergic response. However, the main danger are soluble cobalt salts, which are classified as carcinogens according to the European Union Commission Regulation (WE 1272/2008). The aim of this study was to develop a method for determining cobalt to assess occupational exposure within 1/10 ÷ 2 of the proposed MAC value. The method consists in taking an aerosol of cobalt and its compounds contained in the air onto a filter, mineralization of the filter in nitric acid (V) and hydrochloric acid at elevated temperature and then determination of cobalt content in the sample using atomic absorption spectrometry with electrothermal atomization (ET-AAS). Validation requirements presented in Standard No. PN-EN 482 were fulfilled during the tests. The method allow the determination of cobalt and its compounds in workplace air at concentrations of 0.0001 ÷ 0.002 mg/m³ for the respirable fraction. LOQ is 0.017 µg/m³ . The overall precision of the study was 5.39% and the expanded uncertainty was 23.56%. The method for determining cobalt and its compounds has been recorded in the form of an analytical procedure (see Appendix). This article discusses the problems of occupational safety and health, which are covered by health sciences and environmental engineering.

The selective removal of cobalt(II) from aqueous chloride solutions containing nickel(II) and lithium(I) was studied. The facilitated transport of metal ions through polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) with trihexyl(tetradecyl)phosphonium thiosalicylate [PR4][TS] under various conditions was analyzed. In order to optimize the separation process, several factors such as the ion carrier concentration in the membrane as well as of the effect of the concentration of the acids in the source/receiving phases were investigated. The results show that PIM containing 25% CTA as the polymer support, 40% NPOE as the plasticizer and 35% [PR4][TS] allow the selective recovery of more than 90% of cobalt(II) from 6 mol/dm3 hydrochloric acid into 0.5 mol/dm3 sulfuric acid.

In the paper, the basic information on cobalt - the element classified, for many years, in the group of critical raw materials has been presented. The current demand on the mentioned metal is higher and higher, caused mainly by the development of new technologies and also, by energetic transformation, including a development of electric cars’ market. The subject connected with obtaining of critical raw materials is nowadays a key problem due to a high dependence of the EU countries on import. The obstructed access to raw materials may dramatically affect the break of the supply chain and, in consequence, affect negatively the manufacture of materials and equipment where cobalt is a component, increase the production costs and finally, limit technological development. The present article has a review character.

Paronchia argentea is traditionally being used for medicinal purposes in Jordan. The current investigation was designed to check the in vitro efficacy of in vitro and ex vitro P. argentea against selected bacterial and fungal strains. The antimicrobial properties of in vitro plantlets and field (ex vitro) plant extracts of P. argentea were investigated against both bacteria and fungi, after and before heavy metals stress used. In this study, four bacterial species were used: Listeria monocytogen and Staphylococcus aureus (Gram positive bacteria) Salmonella typhimurum and Coronobacter sakazakii (Gram negative bacteria) and Calvularia lunata as a mold. The obtained results revealed that the in vitro grown plantlets with the supplemented of lead (Pb), copper (Cu) or Cobalt (Co) with methanol and aqueous extract showed significant inhibitory activities within zones of inhibition ranging between 6.7-30.0 mm. All extracts of P. argentea had activity against the fungi and bacteria tested. The maximum inhibition zone was found in Staphylococcus aureus (30 mm inhibition zone) in medium supplemented with 0.3 mg/L Cu followed by Calvularia lunata (30.0 mm inhibition zone). The methanolic and aqueous P. argentea extract indicate that the solvent plays an important role in the solubility of the antimicrobial substance and also affects the activity of the microbe. Both field (ex vitro) and tissue culture plant extract showed similar antimicrobial activity. The present study could be used as an approach for the development of new, alternative and cheap antimicrobial drugs, particularly against the infections caused by the tested microbes through the tissue culture technology.

The olefin polymerization catalysts constitute a large group of various compounds. Metallocene complexes are the largest part of this group. However, due to the instability at industrial plastics temperatures and the decomposition of complexes after MAO (or MMAO) activation, they have been partly replaced by non-metallocene compounds. This article concerns the studies on new non- metallocene precatalysts for the olefin polymerization and oligomerization. The report focuses on the structure and the catalytic activities of the complexes of chromium(III), vanadium(IV) and cobalt(II) with the following ligands: dipicolinate, 2-pyridinecarboxylate, oxalate, oxydiacetate, iminodiacetate, 2,2’- bipyridine, 4,4’-dimethoxy-2,2’-bipyridine, 1,10-phenantroline. These complex compounds are highly active precatalysts for olefin polymerization and oligomerization. The complexes: [Cr(dipic)2][Cr(bipy)(dipic)H20] 2H20 and [Cr(dipic) 2]Hdmbipy 2.5H20 deserve special attention because they are new type of the precatalysts i.e. organic salt type complexes composed both of organic cations and anions. These compounds are not only interesting because of their structure but also because of their high catalytic activity.

The use of commercial sponges in materials science has gained much recent attention. Their unique properties, namely a fibrous, rigid skeleton, thermal stability and resistance to acid and basic hydrolysis, have been the primary motivation to use them in the development of new composites. In this work, a simple method of immobilization of cobalt and silver cations, followed by their reduction using sodium borohydride, was successfully applied for the first time to obtain functionalized spongin scaffolds. Three different materials, labeled Co_spongin, Ag_spongin and Co-Ag_spongin, were prepared. Their morphological and physicochemical properties were explored using various techniques (SEM+EDS, TG/DTA, FTIR). The focal point of the research was the application of the resulting materials in the reaction of 4-nitrophenol reduction with sodium borohydride in water. It was found that all of the composites possess superior activity in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol, achieving high rate constants of 0.31 min-1 for Ag_spongin, 0.52 min-1 for Co_spongin and 0.86 min-1 for Co-Ag_spongin. Reusability tests showed that all of the composites could be reused five times. Additional structural analysis after catalytic application showed no visible changes in the morphology of the catalysts. The results indicate that spongin can be considered as a facile, cost-effective, renewable and environmentally friendly three-dimensional support for use in heterogeneous catalysis.

The improved TiB2 ceramics were obtained in sintering process at the pressure of 5.5 GPa and temperature of 1550 °C in presence of metallic Co powder. The effect of Co content (ranging from 0 wt.% to 10.0 wt.%) on the phase composition, density, microstructure, Vickers hardness and thermal conductivity of TiB2 ceramics was analyzed. A small amount of new phase Co2 B has been created in the reaction of TiB2 and Co. The relative density of sintered TiB2 ceramics reached 98.1 %. When the mass fraction of Co increased, the porosity increased, while the hardness first increased and then decreased. The maximal Vickers hardness values were equal to 33.3 GPa or 28.2 GPa when the used load was of 4.9 N or 9.8 N, respectively. The highest reached value of thermal conductivity was 88.9 W∙m-1∙K-1. The dense TiB2 ceramics with improved hardness and thermal conductivity were ascribed to the high pressure sintering method and Co sintering aid. High pressure sintering method provides a new way for the preparation of ceramics materials.

In this paper, the sorption capacity of Norit SX2 activated carbon, ground rice husks and C‑160 ion exchange resin in relation to the Cu2+ and Co2+ ions was compared. The studied sorption processes were described using the Langmuir adsorption model. The C‑160 ion exchange resin was characterized by the highest affinity for both Cu2+ and Co2+ ions. It was shown that rice husk and active carbon are efficient sorbents in diluted solutions. The copper recovery for activated carbon, ion exchanger and rice husk was high. The efficiency of this process was 98.1%; 92.3% and 88.9%, respectively. Reducing the volume of acid used for regeneration allowed the solution to be concentrated and facilitated element recovery. Regeneration for cobalt occurred to a lesser extent.

Magnesite ore with a low chalcopyrite – cobaltite mineralization was subjected to a series of separations designed to evaluate the possible concentration of the two accessory minerals. Although the Cu-Co grade in the ore (> 0.01% Co, > 0.1% Cu) is significantly lower than the typical economic grades, content of the main valuable mineral for which the ore is mined and processed in combination with a listing of cobalt as a critical raw material, coupled with their higher price might compensate for the additional beneficiation stages. The ore was first crushed and subsequently classified to -100 μm and +100 -400 μm size fractions. The fine fraction was upgraded by froth flotation processing in laboratory froth flotation cell. The coarser fraction was processed in several separation stages including gravity separation on shaking table, magnetic separation and corona electrostatic separation. The same procedure was also repeated with a higher-grade sample as a verification of the procedures. Preliminary results suggest that the accessory minerals can be separated from the talc-magnesite ore and individual mineral concentrates with about 19% Co and 28% Cu were prepared. However, further work must be done to achieve desirable recoveries for the processing to be economically viable.

Ruda magnezu o niskiej mineralizacji chalkopirytu – kobaltytu została poddana serii separacji mających na celu ocenę możliwego uzysku dwóch minerałów towarzyszących. Chociaż zawartość Cu-Co w rudzie (> 0,01% Co,> 0,1% Cu) jest znacznie niższy niż wartości opłacalne ekonomicznie, zawartość głównego cennego minerału (magnezytu) , dla którego ruda jest wydobywana i przetwarzana w połączeniu z zawartością kobaltu jako surowca krytycznego może zrekompensować koszt dodatkowych etapów wzbogacania. W pierwszym etapie rudę kruszono, a następnie klasyfikowano do frakcji o wielkości -100 μm i +100 -400 μm. Drobną frakcję poddawano flotacji pianowej w laboratoryjnej maszynce flotacyjnej. Grubsza frakcja była przetwarzana w kilku etapach, w tym separacja grawitacyjna na stole wstrząsanym, separacja magnetyczna i separacja elektrostatyczna. Ta sama procedura została powtórzona z próbką o wyższych zawartościach. Wstępne wyniki sugerują, że minerały towarzyszące można oddzielić od rudy talku i magnezytu i zyskano koncentraty mineralne z zawartością około 19% Co i 28% Cu. Jednakże konieczne są dalsze prace w celu osiągnięcia pożądanych uzysków, aby przetwarzanie było opłacalne ekonomicznie.

The influence of the electrode geometry on the microstructure and corrosion behaviour of Co-Mo nano-crystalline coatings elaborated by electrodeposition is studied. The corrosion behaviour was determined in the Ringer’s solution at 25°C. Electrodeposition mechanisms are also discussed as a function of the electrode geometry. The electrode geometry was found to affect the growth rate and, under certain conditions, the microstructure (existence of channels and pores). It does not have influence on the corrosion behaviour.
