JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2021; 288:112399. [PMID: 33774560 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2021.112399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Revised: 01/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/13/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Pharmaceuticals and their by-products are recalcitrant contaminants in water. Moreover, the high consumption of these drugs has many detrimental effects on body waters and ecosystems. In this timely review, the advances in molecular engineering of layered double hydroxides (LDH) that have been used for the removal of pharmaceutical pollutants are discussed. The approach starts from the strategies to obtain homogeneous synthesis of LDH that allow the doping and/or surface functionalization of different metals and oxides, producing heterojunction systems as well as composites with carbon and silica-based materials with high surface area. Adsorption is considered as a traditional removal of pharmaceutical pollutants, so the kinetic and mechanism of this phenomenon are analyzed based on pH, temperature, ionic strength, in order to obtain new insights for the formation of multifunctional LDH. Advanced oxidation methodologies, mainly heterogeneous photocatalysis and Fenton-like processes, stand out as the more efficient even to obtain the mineralization of the drugs. The LDH have the advantage of structural memory that favors regeneration processes. The reconstruction of calcined LDH can be used to improve drug removal, through a combination of adsorption capacity/catalytic activity. A meticulous analysis of the persistence, toxicity and bioaccumulation of the most common pharmaceuticals has allowed us to highlight the ability of the LDH to remove recalcitrant drugs at relatively low concentrations (ppm, ppb), in contrast to other mixed oxide nanostructures and homogeneous oxidation processes. In this sense, the mechanism of drug removal by LDH is discussed based on the importance of the use of composites, scavenger agents, Fenton and electro-Fenton processes, membranes, thin films and coatings, among others. In addition, the ecotoxicity of LDH is also reviewed to indicate that these layered structures can exhibit biocompatibility or high toxicity depending on the adsorbed drug and ions/metals that compose them. Undoubtedly, the LDH have a unique flexible structure with adsorption capacity and catalytic activity, facts that explain the important reasons for their extensive use in the environmental remediation of pharmaceutical pollutants from water.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 412:125162.

Abstract
Heterogeneous electron-Fenton processes have been regarded as promising, environmentally friendly techniques for the removal of refractory organics. A new strategy has been brought forward for an electron-Fenton-like process with in situ H2O2 production, but regarding the catalysts, their geometric stability, H2O2 selectivity, and applicability under high pH values still need to be improved. Herein, bifunctional catalysts were proposed for a heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction by introducing Fe atoms into defect-enriched graphene sheets (Fe/N-DG). The structural and compositional results suggested that the excellent dispersing stability of Fe atoms is mainly attributed to the abundant pyridinic-N sites. Optimized Fe1/N-DG exhibited superior mass activity (5.28 A mgFe-1 at 0.6 V vs. RHE) and H2O2 selectivity (86%) under the synergistic effects of Fe‒N and Fe‒O sites. The Fe/N-DG catalysts maintained superior activities for chloramphenicol removal, even under extreme pH conditions (pH≤4 or pH≥10). Of these catalysts, Fe1/N-DG with a predominant Fe-N structure exhibited the best catalytic performance, achieving the complete removal of chloramphenicol within 180 min under alkaline conditions. The possible mechanism for chloramphenicol removal under alkaline conditions was proposed, along with those for the production and activation of H2O2. This study gives new insights into atomic Fe-based catalysts exhibiting excellent selectivity and stability for antibiotic wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The disadvantages of limited working pH range and poor stability have hindered the practical application of traditional electro-Fenton process. In this research, a novel heterogeneous electro-Fenton (HEF) process with FeIIFeIII layered double hydroxide/carbon felt (FeIIFeIII LDH/CF) as cathode was developed for the rapid destruction of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in bulk solution. Effects of crucial influencing factors (initial pH, current intensity) on CIP degradation were investigated. Results indicated that FeIIFeIII LDH/CF cathode was efficient for CIP degradation (88.11%). Furthermore, CIP degradation performance in HEF could remain stable over wide range of pH (pH 3-9). The catalytic degradation of CIP in HEF process might be a combined effect of homogeneous EF reaction, anodic oxidation, and surface catalysis process via≡FeII/≡FeIII cycle. Possible degradation pathways were proposed. The results suggested that FeIIFeIII LDH/CF cathode showed great application potential for CIP degradation.

Abstract
A new electrochemical platform was suggested for the sensing of the dasatinib (DA) anticancer drug based on paste electrode modification (PE) amplified with Fe3O4-SWCNTs nanocomposite and 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (mim-BF4−). The new platform showed a linear dynamic range from 0.001–220 µM with a detection limit of 0.7 nM to determine DA at optimal condition. Electrochemical investigation showed that the redox reaction of DA is relative to changing the pH of solution. Moreover, Fe3O4-SWCNTs/mim-BF4−/PE has improved the oxidation current of DA about 5.58 times which reduced its oxidation potential by about 120 mV at optimal condition. In the final step, Fe3O4-SWCNTs/mim-BF4−/PE was used as an analytical platform to determine the DA in tablets and a dextrose saline spike sample, and the results showed recovery data 99.58–103.6% which confirm the powerful ability of the sensor as an analytical tool to determine the DA in real samples.

Abstract
A pink pigment-producing bacterial strain was isolated from wastewater and identified as Paenibacillus sp. BPW19. The motile bacterial strain was Gram-positive, acid fermenting, glucose, sucrose utilizing and rod-shaped with an average cell length of 1.55 μm as studied under the Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope. Even though being psychrotolerant, the cell growth condition of BPW19 was optimized as 25 ºC along with pH 8, and 2.25% inoculum concentration considering the operational ease of the production. Sonication assisted solvent extraction produced 5.41% crude pigment which showed zones of exclusion against gram-negative strains Escherichia coli DH5α, Enterobacter sp. EtK3, and Klebsiella sp. SHC1. Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry analysis of the crude pigment exhibited the dominant presence of major compounds as dotriacontane; 3,7 dimethyl 7 octanal; 1-eicosene and erucic acid. While column chromatography (ethanol:chloroform in 1:4 (v/v) ratio) purified pigment was identified as erucic acid using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance with a net yield of 3.06%.

Abstract
Electro-catalytic activities of carbonaceous cathodes including graphite plate, graphite felt, carbon felt, activated carbon felt (ACF) and carbon fiber felt (CFF) for degradation of Reactive Red X-3B (RRX-3B) in residual dyeing liquid were compared. The best electrochemical performance was obtained using dimensional stable anode (DSA) and CFF cathode due to the higher capacity for electro-generation of H2O2 by selective two-electron oxygen reduction. The CFF/DSA electrolysis system realized 78.2% COD removal and complete decolorization over a wide pH range. The efficacy of RRX-3B degradation was found to be dependent on the nature of carbonaceous materials. Electrochemical measurements showed that CFF possessed higher electrochemical surface area and hydrogen evolution reaction over-potential. Furthermore, the intrinsic graphitic N in CFF was proved to be catalytic active site by DFT calculations. Reactive Red X-3B degradation intermediates with benzene structures and carboxylic acids via hydroxylation in RRX-3B oxidation were identified by GC-MS. It was found that S/Cl/N-containing groups in RRX-3B molecule were mineralized to SO42-, NO3- and Cl- ions in the electrolysis.

Abstract
Facing low reactivity/selectivity of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in electro-Fenton (EF), N, S atoms were introduced into carbon-based cathode. "End-on" O2 adsorption was achieved by adjusting electronic nature via N doping, while *OOH binding capability was tuned by spin density variation via S doping. Results showed the optimized N, S co-doped cathode presented a 42.47% improvement of H2O2 accumulation (7.95 ± 0.02 mg L-1 cm-2). According to density functional theory (DFT), N, S co-doped structure favored the "end-on" O2 adsorption as adsorption energy dropped to - 2.24 eV. Moreover, O-O/C-O bond lengths variation proved a possibility for *OOH desorption. The elaborated cathode was used in EF for sulfonamides (SAs) decay. A 100% removal rate of sulfadiazine (SDZ), sulfathiazole (STZ) and sulfadimethoxine (SDM) was achieved within 60 min, among which SDZ tended to be degraded easily. Because the absolute hardness (η) of those pollutants is ranked as follows: ηSDM> ηSTZ> ηSDZ. Degradation pathways were proposed based on the detected byproducts, along with toxicity was evaluated by ecological structure-activity relationship (ECOSAR) program. Results showed that toxic intermediates generated were reduced or even disappeared. EF with N, S co-doped cathode provides a promising process for antibiotics wastewater treatment.

Herein, Co3O4/CeO2 nanocomposite was synthesized by the modified Pechini method. Citric, maleic, succinic, and trimsic acids were used as a stabilizer, and the variation affected the morphology and size of the synthesized nanocomposites. Subsequently, the formation of Co3O4/CeO2 nanocomposites was confirmed by various analyses. Furthermore, the particles were considered for size and morphology by SEM and HRTEM analyses, and the sample that used trimsic acid as the stabilizer was designated as the goal sample to continue the route. The optimum sample was used to investigate the photocatalytic properties of the synthesized nanocomposite. The UV-light photocatalyst test was performed in neutral, alkaline, and acidic states against two aqueous solutions containing color contamination of methylene blue and erythrosine B dyes. The results showed decolorization at 85% for methylene blue and 90% for erythrosine B over 120 min test time.

Abstract
Owing to the unique properties and useful applications in numerous fields, nanomaterials (NMs) received a great attention. The mass production of NMs has raised major concern for the environment. Recently, some altered growth patterns in plants have been reported due to the plant-NMs interactions. However, for NMs safe applications in agriculture and medicine, a comprehensive understanding of bio-nano interactions is crucial. The main goal of this review article is to summarize the results of the toxicological studies that have shown the in vitro and in vivo interactions of NMs with plants. The toxicity mechanisms are briefly discussed in plants as the defense mechanism works to overcome the stress caused by NMs implications. Indeed, the impact of NMs on plants varies significantly with many factors including physicochemical properties of NMs, culture media, and plant species. To investigate the impacts, dose metrics is an important analysis for assaying toxicity and is discussed in the present article to broadly open up different aspects of nanotoxicological investigations. To access reliable quantification and measurement in laboratories, standardized methodologies are crucial for precise dose delivery of NMs to plants during exposure. Altogether, the information is significant to researchers to describe restrictions and future perspectives.

Abstract
The presence of pharmaceutical products in the water cycle may cause harmful effects such as morphological, metabolic and sex alterations in aquatic organisms and the selection/development of organisms resistant to antimicrobial agents. The compounds’ stability and persistent character hinder their elimination by conventional physico-chemical and biological treatments and thus, the development of new water purification technologies has drawn great attention from academic and industrial researchers. Recently, the electro-Fenton process has been demonstrated to be a viable alternative for the removal of these hazardous, recalcitrant compounds. This process occurs under the action of a suitable catalyst, with the majority of current scientific research focused on heterogeneous systems. A significant area of research centres working on the development of an appropriate catalyst able to overcome the operating limitations associated with the homogeneous process is concerned with the short service life and difficulty in the separation/recovery of the catalyst from polluted water. This review highlights a present trend in the use of different materials as electro-Fenton catalysts for pharmaceutical compound removal from aquatic environments. The main challenges facing these technologies revolve around the enhancement of performance, stability for long-term use, life-cycle analysis considerations and cost-effectiveness. Although treatment efficiency has improved significantly, ongoing research efforts need to deliver economic viability at a larger scale due to the high operating costs, primarily related to energy consumption.

Abstract
The present work describes the first synthesis of novel asymmetric zinc (II) phthalocyanine (ZnPc) including three boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) and one ethyloxy azido moieties. Moreover, single walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) surface was functionalized by this ZnPc containing BODIPY; using the azide-alkyne Huisgen cycloaddition (Click) reaction to obtain SWCNT-ZnPc hybrid material. Structural, thermal and morphological characterizations of both ZnPc and SWCNT-ZnPc hybrid were carried out in-depth by spectroscopic, thermal and microscopic techniques. In this study, the synthesized SWCNT-ZnPc material was decorated on composite glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by means of an easy and a practical drop cast method. The modified electrode was tested as a non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor in various common pesticides such as methyl parathion, deltamethrin, chlorpyrifos and spinosad. Electrochemical behavior of non-enzymatic electrode (GCE/SWCNT-ZnPc) was determined via cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The non-enzymatic sensor demonstrated high selectivity for methyl parathion in a wide linear range (2.45 nM-4.0 × 10-8 M), low limit of detection value (1.49 nM) and high sensitivity (0.1847 μA nM-1). Also, the developing non-enzymatic sensor exhibited good repeatability (RSD = 2.3% for 10 electrodes) and stability (85.30% for 30 days). Validation guidelines by HPLC and statistical analysis showed that the proposed voltammetric method were precise, accurate, sensitive, and can be used for the routine quality control of methyl parathion determination in juice samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Peripheral artery disease, one type of atherosclerosis, is a common medical condition in the world that results from plaque build-up in the peripheral blood vessels. The symptoms of this disease are the senses of pain and weakness in outer muscles. METHODS The artery under consideration is called the popliteal artery. In this model, the blood flow is considered as pulsating. Therefore the inlet boundary condition is taken as unsteady velocity, and the outlet boundary condition is taken the outflow. The inlet boundary condition represents the increasing systole flow and the decreasing diastole flow, which occur naturally in blood flow. Systolic flow occurs when the heart contracts and pumps blood into the arteries. The inlet blood flow is in the form of a sine-cosine parabolic profile. RESULTS The artery bends from the middle at an angle of 45°. As the bending of the artery begins, the flow field also takes a bent form. At this point, the flow bends from the outside of the top wall and enfolds the bottom wall in its bending. For different periods, the popliteal flow is closer to the lower bend when the inlet velocity is more significant. While the top wall experiences a low-intensity region along the bend, the bottom wall experiences the same effect just before and after the bend. As the blood flows along the bend, the flow path becomes significantly curved near the bend, similar to the model. The clotted artery exhibits a large increase in flow due to a reduction in the cross-section as a result of the clotting in half of the artery. The flow before the clotting is not considerably different from the main model of the straight artery. CONCLUSIONS Like shear stress, the pressure drop has a linear relationship with the blood HCT and, hence, the viscosity. The pressure drop decreases with the inlet velocity reaching its maximum value and then increases with the start of the acceleration reduction in the second and third-time steps. This indicates that the pressure drop has a stronger relationship with the acceleration than the inlet velocity.
