The present disclosure discloses a cellulose nanocrystal-supported sodium alginate adsorbent and use thereof in enriching organic phosphorus in wastewater, belonging to the technical field of environmental engineering. Cellulose nanocrystals are prepared from papermaking deinking sludge through chemical conditioning, drying, crushing, chemical oxidation and microwave assisted separation, and then supported on alginate under weakly acidic conditions to provide the cellulose nanocrystals with the ability to enrich organic phosphorus in wastewater. By using this method, the content of organic phosphorus in the wastewater can be significantly reduced, the total phosphorus in the effluent can be reduced, and the wastewater treatment effluent can satisfy the discharge standard. The enriched organic phosphorus can be recycled as a phosphorus resource through incineration. In addition, the papermaking deinking sludge is made into the product with a high added value, so the applicability of the papermaking deinking sludge is broadened. The present disclosure has high feasibility.

The present invention concerns a method of storing a separation matrix comprising multimers of immunoglobulin-binding alkali-stabilized Protein A domains covalently coupled to a porous support. The method comprises the steps of: a) providing a storage liquid comprising at least 50% by volume of an aqueous alkali metal hydroxide solution; b) permeating the separation matrix with the storage liquid; and c) storing the storage liquid-permeated separation matrix for a storage time of at least days. The alkali-stabilized Protein A domains comprise mutants of a parental Fc-binding domain of Staphylococcus Protein A (SpA), as defined by, or having at least 80% such as at least 90%, 95% or 98% identity to, SEQ ID NO 51 or SEQ ID NO 52, wherein the amino acid residues at positions 13 and 44 of SEQ ID NO 51 or 52 are asparagines and wherein at least the asparagine residue at position 3 of SEQ ID NO 51 or 52 has been mutated to an amino acid selected from the group consisting of glutamic acid, lysine, tyrosine, threonine, phenylalanine, leucine, isoleucine, tryptophan, methionine, valine, alanine, histidine and arginine.

Carbon dioxide adsorbents are provided. The carbon dioxide adsorbents include a polymeric amine and a porous support on which the polymeric amine is supported. the polymeric amine consists of a polymer skeleton containing nitrogen atoms and branched chains bonded to the nitrogen atoms of the polymer skeleton. Each of the branched chains contains at least one nitrogen atom. the polymeric amine is modified by substitution of at least one of the nitrogen atoms of the polymer skeleton or the branched chains with a hydroxyl group-containing carbon chain.
