The JUNO experiment locates in Jinji town, Kaiping city, Jiangmen city, Guangdong province. The geographic location is east longitude 112 • 31'05' and North latitude 22 • 07'05'. The experimental site is 43 km to the southwest of the Kaiping city, a county-level city in the prefecture-level city Jiangmen in Guangdong province. There are five big cities, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Macau, Shenzhen, and Zhuhai, all in ∼200 km drive distance, as shown in figure 3.
Graphene has attracted multidisciplinary study because of its unique physicochemical properties. Herein, few-layered graphene oxide nanosheets were synthesized from graphite using the modified Hummers method, and were used as sorbents for the removal of Cd(II) and Co(II) ions from large volumes of aqueous solutions. The effects of pH, ionic strength, and humic acid on Cd(II) and Co(II) sorption were investigated. The results indicated that Cd(II) and Co(II) sorption on graphene oxide nanosheets was strongly dependent on pH and weakly dependent on ionic strength. The abundant oxygen-containing functional groups on the surfaces of graphene oxide nanosheets played an important role on Cd(II) and Co(II) sorption. The presence of humic acid reduced Cd(II) and Co(II) sorption on graphene oxide nanosheets at pH < 8. The maximum sorption capacities (C(smax)) of Cd(II) and Co(II) on graphene oxide nanosheets at pH 6.0 ± 0.1 and T = 303 K were about 106.3 and 68.2 mg/g, respectively, higher than any currently reported. The thermodynamic parameters calculated from temperature-dependent sorption isotherms suggested that Cd(II) and Co(II) sorptions on graphene oxide nanosheets were endothermic and spontaneous processes. The graphene oxide nanosheets may be suitable materials in heavy metal ion pollution cleanup if they are synthesized in large scale and at low price in near future.
A kind of sulfonated graphene (around 3 nm thick) with high dispersion properties has been synthesized. It is demonstrated to adsorb persistent organic aromatic pollutants effectively from aqueous solutions. The adsorption capability of the prepared sulfonated graphene nanomaterials approaches ∼2.3–2.4 mmol g−1 for naphthalene and 1‐naphthol, which is one of the highest capabilities of today's nanomaterials. This highly effective adsorbent may be a promising candidate to remove aromatic chemicals from large volumes of aqueous solutions. It opens a new door for cost effective environmental pollution management with graphene in the near future.
Few-layered graphene oxide (FGO) was synthesized from graphite by using the modified Hummers method, and was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The prepared FGO was used to adsorb Pb(II) ions from aqueous solutions. The abundant oxygen-containing groups on the surfaces of FGO played an important role in Pb(II) ion adsorption on FGO. The adsorption of Pb(II) ions on FGO was dependent on pH values and independent of ionic strength. The adsorption of Pb(II) ions on FGO was mainly dominated by strong surface complexation. From the adsorption isotherms, the maximum adsorption capacities (C(smax)) of Pb(II) ions on FGO calculated from the Langmuir model were about 842, 1150, and 1850 mg g(-1) at 293, 313, and 333 K, respectively, higher than any currently reported. The FGO had the highest adsorption capacities of today's nanomaterials. The thermodynamic parameters calculated from the temperature dependent adsorption isotherms indicated that the adsorption of Pb(II) ions on FGO was a spontaneous and endothermic process.

A facile method to synthesize layered manganese oxide nanosheets was developed for the first time by using graphene oxide as a template. The in situ replacement of carbon atoms on the graphene oxide framework by edge-shared [MnO 6 ] octahedra provides a new methodology to synthesize graphenebased two-dimensional nanomaterials. The transformation of graphene oxide into d-type MnO 2 nanosheets results in an especially high surface area (157 m 2 g À1 ), which is the highest value amongst today's MnO 2 nanomaterials. Moreover, the MnO 2 nanosheets demonstrated prominent capacitance ($1017 F g À1 at a scan rate of 3 mV s À1 , and $1183 F g À1 at a current density of 5 A g À1 ) and remarkable rate capability ($244 F g À1 at a high scan rate of 50 mV s À1 and $559 F g À1 at a high current density of 25 A g À1 ), indicating their promise in high energy and power density pseudosupercapacitors.
Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is grafted on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) by using plasma techniques. The CMC grafted MWCNT (MWCNT-g-CMC) is characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), Raman spectra, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)-differential thermal analysis (DTA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and N(2)-BET methods in detail. The application of MWCNT-g-CMC in the removal of UO(2)(2+) from aqueous solution is investigated. MWCNT-g-CMC has much higher sorption ability in the removal of UO(2)(2+) than raw MWCNT. The MWCNT-g-CMC is a suitable material in the preconcentration and solidification of heavy metal ions from large volume of aqueous solutions.
