The photocatalyst was prepared from a combination of a commercial P25 with a mesopore structure and carbon spheres with a microporous structure with high CO2 adsorption capacity. Then, the obtained hybrid TiO2-carbon sphere photocatalysts were deposited on a glass fiber fabric. The combined TiO2-carbon spheres/silica cloth photocatalysts showed higher efficiency in the two-electron CO2 reduction towards CO than in the eight-electron reaction to methane. The 0.5 g graphitic carbon spheres combined with 1 g of TiO2 P25 resulted in almost 100% selectivity to CO. From a practical point of view, this is promising as it economically eliminates the need to separate CO from the gas mixture after the reaction, which also contains CH4 and H-2.Pozycja Open Access CO2 Sorbents Based on Spherical Carbon and Photoactive Metal Oxides: Insight into Adsorption Capacity, Selectivity and Regenerability(MDPI, 2022-10-11) Pełech, Iwona; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Staciwa, Piotr; Sibera, Daniel; Kapica‐Kozar, Joanna; Wanag, Agnieszka; Latzke, Filip; Pawłowska, Karolina; Michalska, Adrianna; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Morawski, Antoni W.Pozycja Open Access CO2 Sorbents Based on Spherical Carbon and Photoactive Metal Oxides: Insight into Adsorption Capacity, Selectivity and Regenerability(MDPI, 2022-10-11) Pełech, Iwona; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Staciwa, Piotr; Sibera, Daniel; Kapica-Kozar, Joanna; Wanag, Agnieszka; Latzke, Filip; Pawłowska, Karolina; Michalska, Adrianna; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Morawski, Antoni W.; Zachodniopomorski Uniwersytet Technologiczny w SzczecinieThis work aimed to obtain hybrid composites based on photoactive metal oxide and carbon having adsorption properties. The materials, composed of titanium dioxide or zinc oxide and spherical carbon, were obtained from resorcinol-formaldehyde resin, treated in a solvothermal reactor heated with microwaves and then subjected to carbonization, were received. The functional groups of pure carbon spheres (unsaturated stretching C=C, stretching C-OH and C-H bending vibrations), CS/ZnO and CS/TiO2 samples were determined by FT-IR analysis. The characteristic bands for ZnO and TiO2 were observed below 1000 cm(-1). The thermal oxidative properties are similar for TiO2- and ZnO-modified carbon spheres. We have observed that the increased carbon sphere content in nanocomposites results in starting the decomposition process at a lower temperature, therefore, nanocomposites have a broader combustion temperature range. The effect of the oxides' addition to carbon spheres on their adsorption properties was evaluated in detail by examining CO2 adsorption from the gas phase. The selectivity of CO2 over N-2 at a temperature of 25 degrees C and pressure of 1 bar (a novelty in testing CS-based sorbents) calculated for 3.00 CS/TiO2 and 4.00 CS/ZnO was 15.09 and 16.95, respectively. These nanocomposites exhibit excellent cyclic stability checked over 10 consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles.Pozycja Open Access DC magnetization of titania supported on reduced graphene oxide flakes(De Gruyter, 2021-10-19) Guskos, Nikos; Żołnierkiewicz, Grzegorz; Guskos, Aleksander; Aidinis, Konstantinos; Glenis, Spiros; Wanag, Agnieszka; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Morawski, Antoni W.; Zachodniopomorski Uniwersytet Technologiczny w SzczecinieDC magnetization of a series of titania nano-composites modified with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) has been investigated. Hysteresis loops observed at room temperature disappeared at low temperatures. At a temperature of about 100 K, a phase transition to the super-ferromagnetic order state was observed, probably due to the linear expansion and self-reorientation of the magnetic moments. Processes associated with magnetic moment reorientation can cause a hysteresis loop to disappear at low temperatures as well as superferromagnetic ordering. It was suggested that the isolated nanoparticle in the nanopore could be used to create a "compass" at a nanometer-sized level that would be many times more sensitive than the conventional one. Measurements of the zero-field cooling and field cooling modes do not exclude the possibility of the coexistence of a superparamagnetic state.Pozycja Open Access The Effect of the Modification of Carbon Spheres with ZnCl2 on the Adsorption Properties towards CO2(MDPI, 2022-02) Pełech, Iwona; Staciwa, Piotr; Sibera, Daniel; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Morawski, Antoni W.; Kapica-Kozar, Joanna; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin; Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin; Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin, Department of General Civil Engineering, Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin; Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin; Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin; Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin; Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment Engineering, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, West Pomeranian University of Technology in SzczecinZinc chloride and potassium oxalate are often applied as activating agents for carbon materials. In this work, we present the preparation of ZnO/carbon spheres composites using resorcinol-formaldehyde resin as a carbon source in a solvothermal reactor heated with microwaves. Zinc chloride as a zinc oxide source and potassium oxalate as an activating agent were applied. The effect of their addition and preparation conditions on the adsorption properties towards carbon dioxide at 0 degrees C and 25 degrees C were investigated. Additionally, for all tested sorbents, the CO2 sorption tests at 40 degrees C, carried out utilizing a thermobalance, confirmed the trend of sorption capacity measured at 0 and 25 degrees C. Furthermore, the sample activated using potassium oxalate and modified using zinc chloride (a carbon-to-zinc ratio equal to 10:1) displayed not only a high CO2 adsorption capacity (2.69 mmol CO2/g at 40 degrees C) but also exhibited a stable performance during the consecutive multicycle adsorption-desorption process.Pozycja Open Access The influence of the addition of carbon spheres on photoactivity of TiO2 and ZnO in CO2 reduction process(Elsevier, 2023-09-09) Morawski, Antoni W.; Ćmielewska, Katarzyna; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Staciwa, Piotr; Kapica-Kozar, Joanna; Ekiert, Ewa; Pełech, Iwona; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Zachodniopomorski Uniwersytet Technologiczny w Szczecinie.

Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering. Department of Inorganic Chemical Technology and Environment EngineeringThe development of an effective photocatalyst for CO2 reduction is currently being addressed by many scientists. This study concerns the influence of the addition of carbon spheres (CS) on photoactivity of TiO2 and ZnO. The photocatalysts were tested in a liquid phase system in an alkaline environment. The suspensions of the tested materials were irradiated with UV–Vis light for 6 h. Then, the amount of the obtained products in the gas phase was analysed by gas chromatography. The identified products of CO2 photoreduction were hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and methane. Based on the results, it was found that CS/TiO2 and CS/ZnO showed similar activity in carbon dioxide reduction processes, however, more product amounts were obtained in experiments with the use of CS/TiO2 materials. The addition of carbon spheres to titanium dioxide improved its activity in carbon monoxide production. The maximum photoactivity of CS/TiO2 was observed for the addition of 0.1 g of CS. On the other hand, in the case of CS/ZnO materials, carbon spheres did not positively affect their performance. Nevertheless, their activity increased with the CS amount.Pozycja Open Access Magnetic moment centers in titanium dioxide photocatalysts loaded on reduced graphene oxide flakes(De Gruyter, 2021-01) Guskos, Nikos; Zolnierkiewicz, Grzegorz; Guskos, Aleksander; Aidinis, Konstantinos; Wanag, Agnieszka; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Morawski, Antoni W.; Zachodniopomorski Uniwersytet Technologiczny w SzczecinieA whole series of titania nanocomposites modified with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was prepared using solvothermal method followed by calcination. Modification of titania with rGO has been found to lead to better photocatalytic properties. The highest photocatalytic performance was obtained at calcination temperature of 600 degrees C. Electron paramagnetic resonance/ferromagnetic resonance measurements showed oxygen defects and ferromagnetic ordering systems. The linewidth of resonance line of oxygen defects decreased linearly with calcination temperature increasing up to 600 degrees C and an accompanying growth of mean crystallite size of anatase phase. The integrated resonance line intensity of oxygen defects depended on the calcination temperature and caused a very large increase in the intensity of resonance lines originating from oxygen defects, because inert atmosphere of calcination was enhanced by graphene presence. The occurrence of magnetic ordering system significantly influenced the performance of photocatalytic processes by changing the amount of oxygen defects.Pozycja Open Access Magnetic Resonance Studies of Hybrid Nanocomposites Containing Nanocrystalline TiO2 and Graphene-Related Materials(MDPI, 2022-03-18) Guskos, Nikos; Żolnierkiewicz, Grzegorz; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Guskos, Aleksander; Aidinis, Konstantinos; Bobrowska, Marta; Berczynski, Paweł; Wanag, Agnieszka; Pełech, Iwona; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Morawski, Antoni W.; Zachodniopomorski Uniwersytet Technologiczny w SzczecinieNanocomposites based on nanocrystalline titania modified with graphene related materials (reduced and oxidized form of graphene) showed the existence of magnetic agglomerates. All parameters of magnetic resonanc spectra strongly depended on the materials’ modification processes. The reduction of graphene oxide significantly increased the number of magnetic moments, which caused crucial changes in the reorientation and relaxation processes. At room temperature, a wide resonance line dominated for all nanocomposites studied and in some cases, a narrow resonance line derived from the conduction electrons. Some nanocomposites (samples of titania modified with graphene oxide, prepared with the addition of water or butan-1-ol) showed a single domain magnetic (ferromagnetic) arrangement, and others (samples of titania modified with reduced graphene oxide) exhibited magnetic anisotropy. In addition, the spectra of EPR from free radicals were observed for all samples at the temperature of 4 K. The magnetic resonance imaging methods enable the capturing of even a small number of localized magnetic moments, which significantly affects the physicochemical properties of the materials.Pozycja Open Access New Insight on Carbon Dioxide-Mediated Hydrogen Production(Chemistry Europe, European Chemical Societies Publishing, 2022-04-03) Morawski, Antoni W.; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Pełech, Iwona; Cmielewska, Katarzyna; Sibera, Daniel; Staciwa, Piotr; Wanag, Agnieszka; Gano, Marcin; Ekiert, Ewa; Kapica-Kozar, Joanna; Witkowski, Kordian; Narkiewicz, Urszula; Zachodniopomorski Uniwersytet Technologiczny w SzczecinieA new approach to hydrogen production from water is described. This simple method is based on carbon dioxide-mediated water decomposition under UV radiation. The water contained dissolved sodium hydroxide, and the solution was saturated with gaseous carbon dioxide. During saturation, the pH decreased from about 11.5 to 7-8. The formed bicarbonate and carbonate ions acted as scavengers for hydroxyl radicals, preventing the recombination of hydroxyl and hydrogen radicals and prioritizing hydrogen gas formation. In the presented method, not yet reported in the literature, hydrogen production is combined with carbon dioxide. For the best system with alkaline water (0.2 m NaOH) saturated with CO2 under UV-C, the hydrogen production amounted to 0.6 mu mol h(-1) during 24 h of radiation.Pozycja Open Access Photocatalytic reduction of CO2 over Ti3+ self-doped TiO2-based nanomaterials(Elsevier, 2024-02-14) Ricka, Rudolf; Wanag, Agnieszka; Kusiak-Nejman, Ewelina; Moszynski, Dariusz; Edelmannova, Miroslava Filip; Reli, Martin; Badura, Zdenek; Zoppellaro, GIorgio; Zboril, Radek; Morawski, Antoni W.; Koci, Kamila; Institute of Environmental Technology, CEET, VSB-Technical University of Ostrava, 17. listopadu 2172/15, 708 00 Ostrava-Poruba, Czech Republic; Faculty of Materials Science and Technology, VˇSB-Technical University of Ostrava, 17. listopadu 2172/15, 708 00 Ostrava-Poruba, Czech Republic; West Pomeranian University of Technology in Szczecin, Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, Department of Inorganic Technology and Environment Engineering, ul.

The Ti3+ self-doped photocatalysts were synthesized using a straightforward chemical reduction with sodium borohydride (NaBH4). Our investigation aimed to elucidate the intricate interplay between the synthesis process and the quantity of NaBH4 reductant on the physical-chemical and photocatalytic attributes of the defective TiO2-based photocatalysts. We explored three different commercially available TiO2 materials labeled P25, (S) TiO2, and KRONOClean7050, which were reduced (2 g of TiO2) with 0.75 and 1.5 g of NaBH4. The reduction with 0.75 g of NaBH4 led to a significant decrease of photocatalytic activity in all three cases. It was caused by clogging of the photocatalysts surface by sodium ions which resulted in the surface recombination of charge carriers. Oppositely, the reduction with 1.5 g of NaBH4, led to an increase of the photocatalytic activity with superior performance of KRONOClean7050. The comprehensive characterization of all the samples explained this superior performance of KC7050_RED_1.5 sample. Importantly, it did not contain any amorphous phase and the crystal size was two times higher compared to other 2 samples reduced by 1.5 g of NaBH4. In the addition to higher crystallinity, the formation of a disordered TiO2− x layer, enriched with Ti3+ defects and oxygen vacancies, was confirmed. These structural features enhance the light absorption and mitigate undesired recombination of photogenerated charge carriers.

Department of General Civil EngineeringThis paper examines the synthesis of the ZnO/carbon spheres composites using resorcinol—formaldehyde resin as a carbon source and zinc nitrate as a zinc oxide source in a solvothermal reactor heated with microwaves. The influence of activation with potassium oxalate and modification with zinc nitrate on the physicochemical properties of the obtained materials and CO2 adsorption capacity was investigated. It was found that in the case of nonactivated material as well as activated materials, the presence of zinc oxide in the carbon matrix had no effect or slightly increased the values of CO2 adsorption capacity. Only for the material where the weight ratio of carbon:zinc was 2:1, the decrease of CO2 adsorption capacity was reported. Additionally, CO2 adsorption experiments on nonactivated carbon spheres and those activated with potassium oxalate with different amounts of zinc nitrate were carried out at 40 °C using thermobalance. The highest CO2 adsorption capacity at temperature 40 °C (2.08 mmol/g adsorbent) was achieved for the material after activation with potassium oxalate with the highest zinc nitrate content as ZnO precursor. Moreover, repeated adsorption/desorption cycle experiments revealed that the as-prepared carbon spheres were very good CO2 adsorbents, exhibiting excellent cyclic stability with a performance decay of less than 10% over up to 25 adsorption-desorption cycles.
