One-step green synthesis of melamine-modified cellulose nanofiber composite aerogels for efficient removal of Pb(II) and Cu(II): Experiments and DFT calculations. Int J Biol Macromol 2024:136305. [PMID: 39374712 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.136305] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2024] [Revised: 09/09/2024] [Accepted: 10/03/2024] [Indexed: 10/09/2024]
Abstract
A composite aerogel (CGMA) with high porosity (98.32 %) and multiple active sites was prepared for the adsorption of Pb(II) and Cu(II) by sol-gel combined with freeze-drying process using melamine and (3-Glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane as cellulose nanofiber modifying materials. Characterized by SEM-EDS, XPS, FTIR, BET, MIP and TG, CGMA has a hierarchical pore structure and abundant adsorption sites. At pH = 6, the adsorption reached equilibrium within 120 min, following the Pseudo second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir model, with maximum capacities of 268.1 mg/g for Pb(II) and 152.6 mg/g for Cu(II). The process was primarily governed by homogeneous chemisorption. The coexisting ion, organic matter, and water quality experiments confirmed the excellent anti-interference properties of CGMA. Competitive adsorption experiments showed that CGMA has excellent selective adsorption performance for Pb(II). After 5 cycles, Pb(II) and Cu(II) adsorption performance decreased to 79.21 % and 83.40 %, respectively. FTIR, XPS, DFT and RDG analysis showed that amino groups and oxygen-containing groups were the main sites of adsorption. CGMA forms coordination bonds and complexes with Pb(II) and Cu(II) via amine and oxygen groups and adsorbs via electron transfer, hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals forces, with Pb(II) being more selective. CGMA has good prospects for application in heavy metal ion treatment.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:3053. [PMID: 38998136 PMCID: PMC11242312 DOI: 10.3390/ma17133053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 06/16/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024]
Abstract
A three-dimensional porous bacterial cellulose/graphene oxide (BC/GO) composite hydrogel (BC/GO) was synthesized with multi-layer graphene oxide (GO) as the modifier and bacterial cellulose as the skeleton via an ultrasonic shaking process to absorb lead ions effectively. The characteristics of BC/GO were investigated through TEM, SEM, FT-IR, NMR and Zeta potential experiments. Compared to bacterial cellulose, the ultrasonic method and the carboxyl groups stemming from GO helped to enhance the availability of O(3)H of BC, in addition to the looser three-dimensional structure and enriched oxygen-containing groups, leading to a significantly higher adsorption capacity for Pb(II). In this paper, the adsorption behavior of BC/GO is influenced by the GO concentration, adsorption time, and initial concentration. The highest adsorption capacity for Pb(II) on BC/GO found in this study was 224.5 mg/g. The findings implied that the pseudo-second-order model explained the BC/GO adsorption dynamics and that the data of its adsorption isotherm fit the Freundlich model. Because of the looser three-dimensional structure, the complexation of carboxyl groups, and the enhanced availability of O(3)H, bacterial cellulose exhibited a much better adsorption capacity.

Abstract
The effects of various synthesis methods of a novel biodegradable magnetically recyclable cellulose-based adsorbent (a magnetized modified silica aerogel) on Pb(II) removal efficiency were studied. QSM (quince seed mucilage) was modified via hydrothermal and ultrasonic modes. Oven-drying and freeze-drying procedures were then used to obtain the final adsorbents. The adsorbents were named A1 to A4 and B1 to B4, depending on the synthesis and drying techniques. XRD, FTIR, BET, and SEM are characterization techniques for identifying the adsorbents. Average crystallite sizes of 15.5, 8.3, 10.9, and 2.7 nm were obtained for A1, A2, A3, and A4 samples (Scherrer formula). SEM image confirmed a Sticky bullets-like morphology. The pHpzc values of 3.4, 6.0, and 4.1 were also determined for Fe-silica aerogel, Fe-QSM, and Fe-silica aerogel-QSM samples. The highest adsorption efficiency of the A2 adsorbent towards Pb(II) cations was followed via the experimental design by the RSM (response surface methodology) approach. ANOVA results showed model F value 185 (>F0.05, 14, 15 = 2.42) and LOF F-value of 0.3831 (

Magnetite nanoparticles decorated on cellulose aerogel for p-nitrophenol Fenton degradation: Effects of the active phase loading, cross-linker agent and preparation method. Heliyon 2023; 9:e22319. [PMID: 38053878 PMCID: PMC10694324 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e22319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 11/06/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) are among the most effective Fenton-Like heterogeneous catalysts for degrading environmental contaminants. However, Fe3O4 NPs aggregate easily and have poor dispersion stability because of their magnetic properties, which seriously decrease their catalytic efficiency. In this study, a novel environmentally friendly method for synthesising Fe3O4@CA was proposed. Fe3O4 NPs were immobilized on the 3D cellulose aerogels (CAs) in order to augment the degradation efficiency of p-nitrophenol (PNP) treatment and make the separation of the catalyst accessible by vacuum filtration method. Besides, CAs were fabricated from a cellulose source extracted from water hyacinth by using different cross-linking agents, such as kymene (KM) and polyvinyl alcohol-glutaraldehyde system (PVA-GA), and other drying methods, including vacuum thermal drying and freeze drying, were evaluated in the synthesis process. As-synthesized samples were analysed by various methods, including Powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller. Then, using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, the difference in the degradability of PNP of the obtained material samples was also investigated to determine their potential applications. Results highlighted that the Fe3O4-3@CA-KF catalyst with an Fe3O4 loading of 0.40 g/gCA used KM as a cross-linker and the freeze-drying method demonstrated the highest PNP removal efficiency (92.5 %) in all Fe3O4@CA samples with a H2O2 content of 5 g/L. The degradation kinetics and well-fitted pseudo-first-order model were investigated. Notably, after five successive PNP degradation experiments, this catalyst retained ∼80 % of the ability to degrade PNP, indicating its outstanding reusability. In environmental remediation, this study provides valuable insights into the development of simply separated and high-efficiency catalysts for heterogeneous catalytic reactions.

Abstract
Recently, the natural polymer polysaccharide konjac glucomannan (KGM) has received attention as a promising adsorbent in water treatment due to its low toxicity, cost-effectiveness and biocompatibility. However, the high-level water absorbency of KGM makes it difficult to recover in water treatment. In this study, by combining KGM with magnetic nanoparticles, KGM-based magnetic nanoparticles (KGM-Fe3O4 NPs) with excellent adsorption properties and recyclability for heavy metals were prepared using an one-step precipitation method. The as-prepared KGM-Fe3O4 NPs have a spherical morphology of superparamagnetism with a small particle size (ca. 7.0 nm) and a large specific surface area (160.1 m2·g-1). Taking Cr(VI) as the target heavy metal ion, the above nanoparticles have a high adsorption capacity and fast adsorption rate for Cr(VI). The pseudo-second order kinetic model is more suitable to describe the adsorption process of Cr(VI) by KGM-Fe3O4 NPs, and the maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) onto KGM-Fe3O4 NPs was calculated to be 41.67 mg·g-1 using the Langmuir isotherm model. In addition, KGM-Fe3O4 NPs with adsorbed heavy metal ions can be quickly recovered from a solution, regenerated, and reused in the next cycle. KGM-based Fe3O4 nanoparticles are promising adsorbents that show significant reusability for the removal of metal ions in water and wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Overusing pesticides, fertilizers, and synthetic dyes has significantly increased their presence in various parts of the environment. The transportation of these pollutants into agricultural soil and water through rivers, soils, and groundwater has seriously threatened human and ecosystem health. Applying techniques and materials to clean up agricultural sources from pesticides, heavy metals (HMs), and synthetic dyes (SDs) is one of the major challenges in this century. The sorption technique offers a viable solution to remediate these chemical pollutants (CHPs). Cellulose-based materials have become popular in nano and micro scales because they are widely available, safe to use, biodegradable, and have a significant ability to absorb substances. Nanoscale cellulose-based materials exhibit greater capacity in absorbing pollutants compared to their microscale counterparts because they possess a larger surface area. Many available hydroxyl groups (-OH) and chemical and physical modifications enable the incorporation of CHPs on to cellulose-based materials. Following this potential, this review aims to comprehensively summarize recent advancements in the field of nano- and micro-cellulose-based materials as effective adsorbents for CHPs, given the abundance of cellulosic waste materials from agricultural residues. The recent developments pertaining to the enhancement of the sorption capacity of cellulose-based materials against pesticides, HMs, and SDs, are deliberated.

Abstract
Persistent contaminants in wastewater effluent pose a significant threat to aquatic life and are one of the most significant environmental concerns of our time. Although there are a variety of traditional methods available in wastewater treatment, including adsorption, coagulation, flocculation, ion exchange, membrane filtration, co-precipitation and solvent extraction, none of these have been found to be significantly cost-effective in removing toxic pollutants from the water environment. The upfront costs of these treatment methods are extremely high, and they require the use of harmful synthetic chemicals. For this reason, the development of new technologies for the treatment and recycling of wastewater is an absolute necessity. Our way of life can be made more sustainable by the synthesis of adsorbents based on biomass, making the process less harmful to the environment. Biopolymers offer a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers, which are manufactured by joining monomer units through covalent bonding. This review presents a detailed classification of biopolymers such as pectin, alginate, chitosan, lignin, cellulose, chitin, carrageen, certain proteins, and other microbial biomass compounds and composites, with a focus on their sources, methods of synthesis, and prospective applications in wastewater treatment. A concise summary of the extensive body of knowledge on the fate of biopolymers after adsorption is also provided. Finally, consideration is given to open questions about future developments leading to environmentally friendly and economically beneficial applications of biopolymers.

Abstract
Fenton-type advanced oxidative processes (AOP) have been employed to treat textile dyes in aqueous solution and industrial effluent. The work focused on assisting the limitations still presented by the Fenton process regarding the use of suspended iron catalysts. Soon, a nanocomposite of bacterial cellulose (BC) and magnetite (Fe3O4) was developed. It has proven to be superior to those available in the literature, exhibiting purely catalytic properties and high reusability. Its successful production was verified through analytical characterization, while its catalytic potential was investigated in the treatment of different textile matrices. In initial tests, the photo-Fenton process irradiated and catalyzed by sunlight and BC/Fe3O4 discolored 92.19% of an aqueous mixture of four textile dyes. To improve the efficiency, the design of experiments technique evaluated the influence of the variables pH, [H2O2], and the number of BC/Fe3O4 membranes. 99.82% of degradation was obtained under optimized conditions using pH 5, 150 mg L-1 of H2O2, and 11 composite membranes. Reaction kinetics followed a pseudo-first-order model, effectively reducing the organic matter (COD = 83.24% and BOD = 88.13%). The composite showed low iron leaching (1.60 ± 0.08 mg L-1) and high stability. It was recovered and reused for 15 consecutive cycles, keeping the treatment efficiency at over 90%. As for the industrial wastewater, the photo-Fenton/sunlight/BC/Fe3O4 system showed better results when combined with the physical-chemical coagulation/flocculation process previously used in the industry's WWTP. Together they reduced COD by 77.77%, also meeting the color standards (DFZ scale) for the wavelengths of 476 nm (<3 m-1), 525 nm (<5 m-1), and 620 nm (<7 m-1). Thus, the results obtained demonstrated that employing the BC/Fe3O4 composite as an iron catalyst is a suitable alternative to materials employed in suspension. This is mainly due to the high catalytic activity and power of reuse, which will reduce treatment costs.

Abstract
The presence of heavy metal, chromium (VI), in water environments leads to various diseases in humans, such as cancer, lung tumors, and allergies. This review comparatively examines the use of several adsorbents, such as biosorbents, activated carbon, nanocomposites, and polyaniline (PANI), in terms of the operational parameters (initial chromium (VI) concentration (Co), temperature (T), pH, contact time (t), and adsorbent dosage) to achieve the Langmuir's maximum adsorption capacity (qm) for chromium (VI) adsorption. The study finds that the use of biosorbents (fruit bio-composite, fungus, leave, and oak bark char), activated carbons (HCl-treated dry fruit waste, polyethyleneimine (PEI) and potassium hydroxide (KOH) PEI-KOH alkali-treated rice waste-derived biochar, and KOH/hydrochloric acid (HCl) acid/base-treated commercial), iron-based nanocomposites, magnetic manganese-multiwalled carbon nanotubes nanocomposites, copper-based nanocomposites, graphene oxide functionalized amino acid, and PANI functionalized transition metal are effective in achieving high Langmuir's maximum adsorption capacity (qm) for chromium (VI) adsorption, and that operational parameters such as initial concentration, temperature, pH, contact time, and adsorbent dosage significantly affect the Langmuir's maximum adsorption capacity (qm). Magnetic graphene oxide functionalized amino acid showed the highest experimental and pseudo-second-order kinetic model equilibrium adsorption capacities. The iron oxide functionalized calcium carbonate (IO@CaCO3) nanocomposites showed the highest heterogeneous adsorption capacity. Additionally, Syzygium cumini bark biosorbent is highly effective in treating tannery industrial wastewater with high levels of chromium (VI).

Highly fluorescent composite of boron nitride quantum dots decorated on cellulose nanofibers for detection and removal of Hg(II) ions from waste water. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 234:123728. [PMID: 36801283 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2023]
Abstract
To address the challenge of heavy-metal ions in wastewater, boron nitride quantum dots (BNQDs) were synthesized in-situ on rice straw derived cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) as substrate. The composite system exhibited strong hydrophilic-hydrophobic interactions, as corroborated by FTIR, integrated the extraordinary fluorescence properties of BNQDs with fibrous-network of CNFs (BNQD@CNFs) yielding a surface of 35.147 m2 g-1 of luminescent fibers. Morphological studies revealed uniform distribution of BNQDs on CNFs due to hydrogen bonding, according high thermal stability with peak degradation occurring at 347.7 °C and quantum yield of 0.45. The nitrogen-rich surface of BNQD@CNFs exhibited strong affinity for Hg(II), quenching the fluorescence intensity due to combined inner-filter effect and photo-induced electron transfer. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 4.889 nM and 11.1 5 nM, respectively. BNQD@CNFs concomitantly exhibited adsorption of Hg(II) owing to strong electrostatic interactions, confirmed by X-ray photon spectroscopy. Presence of polar BN bonds favoured 96 % removal of Hg(II) at 10 mg L-1 with maximum adsorption capacity of 314.5 mg/ g. Parametric studies corresponded to pseudo-second order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm with R2 ≈ 0.99. BNQD@CNFs exhibited recovery rate between 101.3 %-111 % for real water samples and recyclability upto 5 cycles, demonstrating high potential in wastewater remediation.

Abstract
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a biopolymer that has been widely investigated due to its useful characteristics, such as nanometric structure, simple production and biocompatibility, enabling the creation of novel materials made from additive BC in situ and/or ex situ. The literature also describes the magnetization of BC biopolymers by the addition of particles such as magnetite and ferrites. The processing of BC with these materials can be performed in different ways to adapt to the availability of materials and the objectives of a given application. There is considerable interest in the electronics field for novel materials and devices as well as non-polluting, sustainable solutions. This sector influences the development of others, including the production and optimization of new equipment, medical devices, sensors, transformers and motors. Thus, magnetic BC has considerable potential in applied research, such as the production of materials for biotechnological electronic devices. Magnetic BC also enables a reduction in the use of polluting materials commonly found in electronic devices. This review article highlights the production of this biomaterial and its applications in the field of electronics.

Abstract
Nanostructured materials offer a significant role in wastewater treatment with diminished capital and operational expense, low dose, and pollutant selectivity. Specifically, the nanocomposites of cellulose with inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) have drawn a prodigious interest because of the extraordinary cellulose properties, high specific surface area, and pollutant selectivity of NPs. Integrating inorganic NPs with cellulose biopolymers for wastewater treatment is a promising advantage for inorganic NPs, such as colloidal stability, agglomeration prevention, and easy isolation of magnetic material after use. This article presents a comprehensive overview of water treatment approaches following wastewater remediation by green and environmentally friendly cellulose/inorganic nanoparticles-based bio-nanocomposites. The functionalization of cellulose, functionalization mechanism, and engineered hybrid materials were thoroughly discussed. Moreover, we also highlighted the purification of wastewater through the composites of cellulose/inorganic nanoparticles via adsorption, photocatalytic and antibacterial approach.

Abstract
Heavy metal ions in industrial sewage constitute a serious threat to human health. Nanocellulose-based adsorbents are emerging as an environmentally friendly material platform for heavy metal ion removal based on their unique properties, which include high specific surface area, excellent mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. In this review, we cover the most recent works on nanocellulose-based adsorbents for heavy metal ion removal and present an in-depth discussion of the modification technologies for nanocellulose in the process of assembling high-performance heavy ion adsorbents. By introducing functional groups, such as amino, carboxyl, aldehyde, and thiol, the assembled nanocellulose-based adsorbents both remove single heavy metal ions and can selectively adsorb multiple heavy ions in water. Finally, the remaining challenges of nanocellulose-based adsorbents are pointed out. We anticipate that this review will provide indispensable guidance on the application of nanocellulose-based adsorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions.

Abstract
Many environmental pollutants caused by uncontrolled urbanization and rapid industrial growth have provoked serious concerns worldwide. These pollutants, including toxic metals, dyes, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, volatile organic compounds, and petroleum hydrocarbons, unenviably compromise the water quality and manifest a severe menace to aquatic entities and human beings. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to acquaint bio-nanocomposites with the capability to remove and decontaminate this extensive range of emerging pollutants. Recently, considerable emphasis has been devoted to developing low-cost novel materials obtained from natural resources accompanied by minimal toxicity to the environment. One such component is cellulose, naturally the most abundant organic polymer found in nature. Given bio-renewable sources, natural abundance, and impressive nanofibril arrangement, cellulose-reinforced composites are widely engineered and utilized for multiple applications, such as wastewater decontamination, energy storage devices, drug delivery systems, paper and pulp industries, construction industries, and adhesives, etc. Environmental remediation prospective is among the fascinating application of these cellulose-reinforced composites. This review discusses the structural attributes of cellulose, types of cellulose fibrils-based nano-biocomposites, preparatory techniques, and the potential of cellulose-based composites to remediate a diverse array of organic and inorganic pollutants in wastewater.

Abstract
Strategic metals play an indispensable role in the related industries. Their extraction and recovery from water are of great significance due to both their rapid consumption and environmental concern. Biofibrous nanomaterials have shown great advantages in capturing metal ions from water. Recent progress in extraction of typical strategic metal ions such as noble metal ions, nuclear metal ions, and Li-battery related metal ions is reviewed here using typical biological nanofibrils like cellulose nanofibrils, chitin nanofibrils, and protein nanofibrils, as well as their assembly forms like fibers, aerogels/hydrogels, and membranes. An overview of advances in material design and preparation, extraction mechanism, dynamics/thermodynamics, and performance improvement in the last decade is provided. And at last, we propose the current challenges and future perspectives for promoting biological nanofibrous materials toward extracting strategic metal ions in practical conditions of natural seawater, brine, and wastewater.

Abstract
Cellulose is the most abundant natural polymer and deserves the special attention of the scientific community because it represents a sustainable source of carbon and plays an important role as a sustainable energent for replacing crude oil, coal, and natural gas in the future. Intense research and studies over the past few decades on cellulose structures have mainly focused on cellulose as a biomass for exploitation as an alternative energent or as a reinforcing material in polymer matrices. However, studies on cellulose structures have revealed more diverse potential applications by exploiting the functionalities of cellulose such as biomedical materials, biomimetic optical materials, bio-inspired mechanically adaptive materials, selective nanostructured membranes, and as a growth template for inorganic nanostructures. This article comprehensively reviews the potential of cellulose structures as a support, biotemplate, and growing vector in the formation of various complex hybrid hierarchical inorganic nanostructures with a wide scope of applications. We focus on the preparation of inorganic nanostructures by exploiting the unique properties and performances of cellulose structures. The advantages, physicochemical properties, and chemical modifications of the cellulose structures are comparatively discussed from the aspect of materials development and processing. Finally, the perspective and potential applications of cellulose-based bioinspired hierarchical functional nanomaterials in the future are outlined.

Synergistic Effects of Calcium Peroxide and Fe3O4@BC Composites on AVS Removal, Phosphorus and Chromium Release in Sediments. WATER 2022.

Abstract
Black odorous sediment pollution in urban areas has received widespread attention, especially pollution caused by acidified volatile sulfide (AVS), phosphorus and heavy metals. In this study, an Fe3O4@BC composite was fabricated by the coprecipitate method of Fe3O4 and biochar (BC) and was mixed with calcium peroxide (CP) for sediment pollution treatment. The results showed that the AVS removal rate could reach 52.8% in the CP+Fe3O4@BC system and −18.1% in the control group on the 25th day. AVS was removed in the following three ways: AVS could be oxidized with oxygen produced by CP; H2O2 produced from CP also could be activated by Fe2+ to generate hydroxyl radicals that have strong oxidation properties to oxidize AVS; AVS could also be removed by bacterial denitrification. As for phosphorus, total phosphorus (TP) content in overlying water remained at 0.1 mg/L after CP and Fe3O4@BC were added. This is due to the conversion of NH4Cl-P and Fe/Al-P into Ca-P in sediments, which inhibited the release of phosphorus. Simultaneously, the release and migration of heavy metal chromium (Cr) were slowed, as demonstrated by the results (the acid extractable and reducible states of Cr in the sediment decreased to 0.58% and 0.97%, respectively). In addition, the results of the high-throughput genetic test showed the total number of microorganisms greatly increased in the CP+Fe3O4@BC group. The abundance of Sulfurovum increased while that of sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRBs) was inhibited. Furthermore, the abundance of denitrifying bacteria (Dechlorominas, Acinetobacter and Flavobacterium) was increased. In brief, our study showed the synergistic effect of Fe3O4@BC composites and CP had a remarkable effect on the urban sediment treatment, which provides a new way to remove sediment pollution.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution generated by urban and industrial activities has become a major global concern due to its high toxicity, minimal biodegradability, and persistence in the food chain. These are the severe pollutants that have the potential to harm humans and the environment as a whole. Mercury, chromium, copper, zinc, cadmium, lead, and nickel are the most often discharged hazardous heavy metals. Nanocellulose, reminiscent of many other sustainable nanostructured materials, is gaining popularity for application in bioremediation technologies owing to its many unique features and potentials. The adsorption of heavy metals from wastewaters is greatly improved when cellulose dimension is reduced to nanometric levels. For instance, the adsorption efficiency of Cr3+ and Cr6+ is found to be 42.02% and 5.79% respectively using microcellulose, while nanocellulose adsorbed 62.40% of Cr3+ ions and 5.98% of Cr6+ ions from contaminated water. These nanomaterials are promising in terms of their ease and low cost of regeneration. This review addresses the relevance of nanocellulose as biosorbent, scaffold, and membrane in various heavy metal bioremediation, as well as provides insights into the challenges, future prospects, and updates. The methods of designing better nanocellulose biosorbents to improve adsorption efficiency according to contaminant types are focused.

Ecofriendly green biosynthesis and characterization of novel bacteriocin-loaded bacterial cellulose nanofiber from Gluconobacter cerinus HDX-1. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 193:693-701. [PMID: 34737079 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.10.176] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2021] [Revised: 10/04/2021] [Accepted: 10/23/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
A new strain of bacterial cellulose (BC)-producing Gluconobacter cerinus HDX-1 was isolated and identified, and a simple, low-cost complexation method was used to biosynthesis Lactobacillus paracasei 1∙7 bacteriocin BC (BC-B) nanofiber. The structure and antibacterial properties of the nanofibers were evaluated. Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that BC and BC-B nanofibers had typical crystalline form of the cellulose I. X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that the bacteriocin and BC were successfully compounded, and the structure of BC-B nanofiber was tighter than BC nanofiber, with lower porosity, swelling ratio and water vapor transmission rate (WVTR). The tensile strength and Young's modulus of BC-B nanofibers were 13.28 ± 1.26 MPa and 132.10 ± 4.92 MPa, respectively, higher than that of BC nanofiber (6.12 ± 0.87 MPa and 101.59 ± 5.87 MPa), indicating that bacteriocin enhance the mechanical properties of BC nanofiber. Furthermore, the BC-B nanofibers exhibited significant thermal stability, antioxidant capacity and antibacterial activity than BC nanofiber. Therefore, bacteriocin-loaded BC nanofiber may be used as antimicrobial agents in active food packaging and medical material.

Mechanical properties of cellulose nanofibril papers and their bionanocomposites: A review. Carbohydr Polym 2021; 273:118507. [PMID: 34560938 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.118507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2021] [Revised: 07/14/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
Cellulose nanofibril (CNF) paper has various applications due to its unique advantages. Herein, we present the intrinsic mechanical properties of CNF papers, along with the preparation and properties of nanoparticle-reinforced CNF composite papers. The literature on CNF papers reveals a strong correlation between the intrafibrillar network structure and the resulting mechanical properties. This correlation is found to hold for all primary factors affecting mechanical properties, indicating that the performance of CNF materials depends directly on and can be tailored by controlling the intrafibrillar network of the system. The parameters that influence the mechanical properties of CNF papers were critically reviewed. Moreover, the effect on the mechanical properties by adding nanofillers to CNF papers to produce multifunctional composite products was discussed. We concluded this article with future perspectives and possible developments in CNFs and their bionanocomposite papers.

Abstract
Actuated structures are becoming relevant in medical fields; however, they call for flexible/soft-base materials that comply with biological tissues and can be synthesized in simple fabrication steps. In this work, we extend the palette of techniques to afford soft, actuable spherical structures taking advantage of the biosynthesis process of bacterial cellulose. Bacterial cellulose spheres (BCS) with localized magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) have been biosynthesized using two different one-pot processes: in agitation and on hydrophobic surface-supported static culture, achieving core-shell or hollow spheres, respectively. Magnetic actuability is conferred by superparamagnetic iron oxide NPs (SPIONs), and their location within the structure was finely tuned with high precision. The size, structure, flexibility and magnetic response of the spheres have been characterized. In addition, the versatility of the methodology allows us to produce actuated spherical structures adding other NPs (Au and Pt) in specific locations, creating Janus structures. The combination of Pt NPs and SPIONs provides moving composite structures driven both by a magnetic field and a H2O2 oxidation reaction. Janus Pt/SPIONs increased by five times the directionality and movement of these structures in comparison to the controls.

Abstract
Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) has become an appealing alternative strategy to treat infections without developing resistance to microbes. In PDI treatment, near-infrared (NIR) light is preferred because it causes less damage to normal tissues and leads to better penetration in deep tissues. Here, we develop an NIR-responsive nanomedicine for efficient broad-spectrum antimicrobial photodynamic treatment. By harnessing the biosynthetic capability of a bacterial cellulose-producing microorganism, we construct a nanocomposite biomaterial to deliver and recycle the nanomedicine. Our simple one-step biosynthetic approach does not impede the antimicrobial potency of the nanomedicine under NIR activation and requires no chemical modification. The resulting nanocomposite has been tested in antimicrobial treatment of different microorganisms, exhibiting a great potential to eliminate pathogens in biofilms and to treat in vivo infections.

Abstract
Wastewater management has significant interest worldwide to establish viable treatment techniques to ensure the availability of clean water. The specialities of nanocellulose for this particular application is due to their high aspect ratio and accessibility of plenty of -OH groups for binding with dyes, heavy metals and other pollutants. This review aggregates the application of nanocellulose for wastewater treatment particularly as adsorbents of dyes and heavy metals, and also as membranes for filtering various other contaminants including microbes. The membrane technologies are proven to be effective relating to their durability and separation effectiveness. The commercial scale application of nanocellulose based materials in water treatment processes depend on various factors like routes of synthesis, surface modifications, hydrophilic/hydrophobic, porosity, durability etc. The recent developments on production of novel adsorbents or membranes encourage the implementation of nanocellulose based cleaner technologies for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
A novel nanomaterial, bacterial cellulose (BC), has become noteworthy recently due to its better physicochemical properties and biodegradability, which are desirable for various applications. Since cost is a significant limitation in the production of cellulose, current efforts are focused on the use of industrial waste as a cost-effective substrate for the synthesis of BC or microbial cellulose. The utilization of industrial wastes and byproduct streams as fermentation media could improve the cost-competitiveness of BC production. This paper examines the feasibility of using typical wastes generated by industry sectors as sources of nutrients (carbon and nitrogen) for the commercial-scale production of BC. Numerous preliminary findings in the literature data have revealed the potential to yield a high concentration of BC from various industrial wastes. These findings indicated the need to optimize culture conditions, aiming for improved large-scale production of BC from waste streams.

Abstract
Magnetic membranes based on bacterial cellulose (BC) nanocomposites have been extensively researched. However, most magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) incorporated in the BC matrix were focused on soft magnetic phases, which limited the extensive use of magnetic BC membranes. Therefore, this work proposes a method to fabricate hard magnetic membrane based on the BC matrix and magnetically hard phase barium ferrite (BFO) NPs. The nanocomposites showed the peaked tensile strength and modulus at the low concentration of BFO whereas the magnetization increased drastically with the BFO content. They also demonstrate the high flexibility up on bending and the sensitivity to external magnetic fields. Furthermore, unlike other magnetic BC membranes, the BC/BFO nanocomposites exhibited the hard magnetic properties, i.e. they could retain their magnetic attraction after being magnetized by a permanent magnet. These properties open the possibility to employ these materials in various fields, such as information storage, anti-couterfeit or electromagnetic shieldings.

Abstract
This study introduces a new combined method of wood impregnation and chemical pulping processes leading to the production of superparamagnetic cellulose fibers with a magnetic nanoparticle-free outer surface. First, magnetic wood chips (MWCs) were prepared by in situ synthesizing of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles during the wood impregnation process. The MWCs were then converted into magnetic fibers by kraft pulping. The results showed that the resulting magnetic fibers had an outer surface comparable to that of non-magnetic fibers while showing superparamagnetic behavior. The XRD results confirmed that the in situ synthesized magnetic nanoparticles were magnetite. Papers made from the new type of magnetic cellulose fibers had much more desirable tensile properties, appearance, and printability than papers made from conventional magnetic cellulose fibers, comparable to those made from non-magnetic fibers.

Abstract
Bacterial cellulose (BC), which can be produced by microorganisms, is an ideal biomaterial especially for tissue engineering and drug delivery systems thanks to its properties of high purity, biocompatibility, high mechanical strength, high crystallinity, 3 D nanofiber structure, porosity and high-water holding capacity. Therefore, wide ranges of researches have been done on the BC production process and its structural and physical modifications to make it more suitable for certain targeted biomedical applications thoroughly. BC's properties such as mechanical strength, pore diameter and porosity can be tuned in situ or ex situ processes by using various polymer and compounds. Besides, different organic or inorganic compounds that support cell attachment, proliferation and differentiation or provide functions such as antimicrobial effectiveness can be gained to its structure for targeted application. These processes not only increase the usage options of BC but also provide success for mimicking the natural tissue microenvironment, especially in tissue engineering applications. In this review article, the studies on optimisation of BC production in the last decade and the BC modification and functionalisation studies conducted for the three main perspectives as tissue engineering, drug delivery and wound dressing with diverse approaches are summarized.

Abstract
Natural biopolymers, polymeric organic molecules produced by living organisms and/or renewable resources, are considered greener, sustainable, and eco-friendly materials. Natural polysaccharides comprising cellulose, chitin/chitosan, starch, gum, alginate, and pectin are sustainable materials owing to their outstanding structural features, abundant availability, and nontoxicity, ease of modification, biocompatibility, and promissing potentials. Plentiful polysaccharides have been utilized for making assorted (nano)catalysts in recent years; fabrication of polysaccharides-supported metal/metal oxide (nano)materials is one of the effective strategies in nanotechnology. Water is one of the world's foremost environmental stress concerns. Nanomaterial-adorned polysaccharides-based entities have functioned as novel and more efficient (nano)catalysts or sorbents in eliminating an array of aqueous pollutants and contaminants, including ionic metals and organic/inorganic pollutants from wastewater. This review encompasses recent advancements, trends and challenges for natural biopolymers assembled from renewable resources for exploitation in the production of starch, cellulose, pectin, gum, alginate, chitin and chitosan-derived (nano)materials.

Abstract
An environmentally friendly nanocomposite adsorbent composed of two renewable biomaterials, bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibrils and hydroxyapatite (HA) nanocrystals, was synthetized by an in situ wet chemical precipitation technique, using clam shell biowaste as feedstock. HA nanocrystals embedded in an ultrafine BC network were confirmed and characterized trough different instrumental techniques (SEM, FTIR, XRD, EDS, surface charge and BET analysis), describing its nanostructure, chemical composition and thermal stability. The adsorptive removal of lead ions by the nanocomposite was investigated through batch experiments conducted under different pH, contact times and Pb(II) initial concentrations, proving that the process was highly favorable according to the Langmuir isotherm model (monolayer adsorption) with chemisorption as the main mechanism and kinetic data obeying a nonlinear pseudo-second order kinetic model. The developed nanocomposite showed a strong removal capacity of Pb(II) both in batch experiments (192 mg/g) and packed-bed column systems (188 mg/g), placing this new nanocomposite among top-performing BC-based biomaterials for lead removal.

Abstract
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a natural polymer that has unique and interesting structural, physical and chemical properties. These characteristics make it very attractive as a starting point for several novel developments in innovative research. However, the pristine BC lacks certain properties, in particular, magnetic property, which can be imparted to BC by incorporation of several types of magnetic nanoparticles. Magnetic nanocomposites based on BC exhibit additional magnetic functionality on top of the excellent properties of pristine BC, which make them promising materials with potential uses in various medical and environmental applications, as well as in advanced electronic devices. This review has compiled information about all classes of BC magnetic nanocomposites fabricated by various synthesis approaches and an overview of applications as well as improved features of these materials. A summary of the key developments of BC magnetic nanocomposites and emphasis on novel advances in this field is presented.

Abstract
Bacterial cellulose (BC) has outstanding physical and chemical properties, including high crystallinity, moisture retention, and tensile strength. Currently, the major producer of BC is Komagataeibacter xylinus. However, due to limited tools of expression, this host is difficult to engineer metabolically to improve BC productivity. In this study, a regulated expression system for K. xylinus with synthetic ribosome binding site (RBS) was developed and used to engineer a BC biosynthesis pathway. A synthetic RBS library was constructed using green fluorescent protein (GFP) as a reporter, and three synthetic RBSs (R4, R15, and R6) with different strengths were successfully isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS). Using synthetic RBS, we optimized the expression of three homologous genes responsible for BC production, pgm, galU, and ndp, and thereby greatly increased it under both static and shaking culture conditions. The final titer of BC under static and shaking conditions was 5.28 and 3.67 g/l, respectively. Our findings demonstrate that reinforced metabolic flux towards BC through quantitative gene expression represents a practical strategy for the improvement of BC productivity.

Abstract
Self-supported and flexible bacterial cellulose (BC) based hybrid membranes were synthesized and decorated with zinc oxide/multi-walled carbon nanotube (ZnO-MWCNT) composite additives in order to modify and tune their surface and bulk properties. Two types of ZnO-MWCNT additives with different morphologies were used in a wide concentration range from 0 to 90% for BC-based hybrids produced by filtration. The interaction between BC and ZnO-MWCNT and the effect of concentration and morphology of additives on the properties like zeta potential, hydrophilicity, electrical conductivity, etc. would be an important factor in various applications. Furthermore, the as-prepared hybrid membranes were characterized with the use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and surface area measurement (BET). Applying the presented synthesis routes, the surface properties of BC-based membranes can be tailored easily. Results reveal that the as-prepared BC-ZnO-MWCNT hybrid membranes can be ideal candidates for different kinds of applications, such as water filtration or catalysts.

Abstract
Pb(II) being carcinogenic and one of the heavy metals which always pose a severe threat to human health. Adsorption is a commonly used method for the removal of heavy metal ions as this process possess high efficiency, easy to handle and cost-effective. Iron oxide based nanomaterial were found to be more attractive for the removal of heavy metals from the aqueous solution because of their size, high surface area, and magnetic. Therefore, in this research study, iron oxide nanoparticles modified with tangerine peel extract (T-Fe3O4) and utilized to carry batch adsorption experiments for the removal of lead from aqueous solutions. It was observed that 99% of Pb(II) adsorption removal was achieved with 0.6 g/L of T-Fe3O4 at an initial concentration of metal at 10 ppm and room temperature of 25°C. The adsorption isotherm was found to be monolayer on the homogeneous surface of the adsorbent. Therefore, the green tangerine peel modified iron oxide nanoparticles can be applied for lead removal from water resources for providing clean and hygienic water for a sustainable and healthier life.
