Abstract
Development of a novel strategy to tackle bacterial-contaminated complex industrial wastewaters containing refractory organic pollutants is of great demand. In this study, polydopamine (PDA)-coated magnetic cellulose nanofiber (MCNF)-loaded silver nanoparticle (AgNP) (MCNF/PDA-Ag) nanocomposites were designed and applied for efficient degradation of organic dye pollutants and inactivation of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in wastewater. In the presence of NaBH4, MCNF/PDA-Ag could achieve a high catalytic reduction rate of 6.54 min-1 for the removal of methylene blue. Similarly, it showed good catalytic reduction performance for methyl orange (0.63 min-1) and 4-nitrophenol (2.94 min-1). The MCNF/PDA-Ag nanocomposites can be easily magnetically recycled and reused with negligible loss of catalytic performance. Moreover, this nanocatalyst also exhibited excellent disinfection performance against E. coli, with more than 99% disinfection ratio at very low doses (50 μg/mL). Overall, this work provides new insights into a delicate design of advanced magnetically recyclable silver nanocomposites with ultrahigh catalytic rates and excellent antibacterial properties from sustainable nature biomass.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 429:128281. [PMID: 35066225 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.128281] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2021] [Revised: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 01/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The pollution of multifarious pollutants such as heavy metal, organic compounds, and nitrate are a hot research topic at present. In this study, the functions of Zoogloea sp. MFQ7 and its biological precipitation formed during bacterial manganese oxidation on the removal of phenol and 17β-estradiol (E2) were investigated. Strain MFQ7, a manganese-oxidizing bacteria, can remove 98.34% of phenol under pH of 7.1, a temperature of 30 ℃ and Mn2+ concentration of 24.34 mg L-1, additionally, the optimum E2 removal by strain MFQ7 was 100.00% at pH of 7.1, temperature of 28 ℃ and Mn2+ concentration of 28.45 mg L-1 by using response surface methodology (RSM) based on Box-Behnken design (BBD) model. The maximum adsorption capacity of bio-precipitation for phenol and E2 was 201.15 mg g-1 and 65.90 mg g-1, respectively. Furthermore, adsorption kinetics and isotherms analysis, XPS, FTIR spectra, Mn(III) trapping experiments elucidated chemical adsorption and Mn(III) oxidation contribute to the removal of phenol and E2 by biogenic manganese oxides. These findings indicated that the adsorption and oxidation of manganese are expected to be one of the effective means to remove these typical organic pollutants containing phenol and E2.

Abstract
In this work, we present three-dimensional flower-like nickel-cobalt oxide (F-NCO) nanosheets developed in a facile, eco-friendly hydrothermal route to apply as photocatalysts for food colorant Allura Red AC dye removal under light illumination. Using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, it was found that the F-NCO nanosheets displayed a surface area of ∼53.65 m2/g and a Barrett-Joyner-Halenda pore size of ∼14 nm, which was also confirmed by the calculated crystallite size of ∼15 nm using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. From Williamson-Hall analysis of XRD spectra, F-NCO nanosheets revealed a crystal-lattice strain of ∼3.42 × 10-3 and a dislocation density of ∼4.397 × 1015 lines/m2 in the crystal structure. Transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed that F-NCO nanosheets accumulated to form flower-like nanostructures of <100 nm length with a d-spacing of ∼2.6 Å, which is attributed to the (311) crystallographic plane (α = γ = β = 90°, a = b = c = 8.110 Å, JCPDS No. 00-020-0781) of the cubic phase. The F-NCO nanosheets exhibited an excellent photocatalytic efficiency of ∼94.75% in ∼10 min with sodium borohydride under UV light. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood model determined pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics of dye degradation using the ln[AtA0]versus time plot. The kinetic study produced a first-order rate constant (k) of ∼0.219 min-1, resulting in ∼3.16 min half-life (t1/2) for the F-NCO-catalyzed degradation reaction. Thus outstanding photocatalytic performance of F-NCO nanosheets would display their huge potential for organic-pollutant removal from water with exceptional recyclability for wide research applications in the future.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 793:148609. [PMID: 34182459 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.148609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2021] [Revised: 06/07/2021] [Accepted: 06/18/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The manganese contamination of groundwater is a global issue that needs to be solved urgently. In this study, a hybrid process between pomelo peel biochar(BC) and Acinetobacter sp. AL-6 (strain AL-6) was established to remove manganese from water. The results showed that microbe-biochar composite had removed 98.19% of manganese (800 mg L-1) within 48 h. Compared with two separate systems (biochar, strain AL-6), the co-system (strain AL-6 and BC composite) had an excellent synergy effect on manganese removal. The average removal rate of manganese in the synergistic system was 14.08 mg L-1 h-1, which was 6.41 times higher than strain AL-6, 3.45 times higher than biochar, and even at 2.24 times their sum. In addition, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the bioassay indicated that many strains were attached to biochar and had vigorous biological activity. The FTIR results showed that the functional groups of OH, CO, CO, CH2, and CH played a vital role in removing manganese. And the correlation analysis shows that biochar with strains AL-6 has a highly synergistic effect on manganese removal. Meanwhile, the composite material can maintain excellent manganese removal efficiency under different pH conditions. Besides, in the sequence batch reactor (SBR) inoculating with the microbe-biochar composite, more than 96% of manganese was removed, which far exceeded the treatment efficiency of free bacteria in the SBR. Hence, biochar-immobilized AL-6 has great potential and can be applied to degrade manganese polluted wastewater.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 28:31218-31229. [PMID: 33599926 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-021-12764-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2020] [Accepted: 01/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
A nitrifying bacterium Acinetobacter sp. AL-6 showed a high efficiency of 99.05% for Mn(II) removal within 144 h when the Mn(II) concentration was 200 mg L-1; meanwhile, 64.23% of NH4+-N was removed. With the Mn(II) concentration increased from 25 to 300 mg L-1, bacterial growth and Mn(II) removal were stimulated. However, due to the electron acceptor competition between Mn(II) oxidation and nitrification reactions, the increase in NH4+-N concentration would inhibit Mn(II) removal. By measuring Mn metabolic form and locating oxidative active factors, it was proved that extracellular oxidation effect played a dominant role in the removal process of Mn(II). The self-regulation of pH during strain metabolism further promoted the occurrence of biological Mn oxidation. Characterization results showed that the Mn oxidation products were tightly attached to the surface of the bacteria in the form of flakes. The product crystal composition (mainly MnO2 and Mn2O3), Mn-O functional group, and element level fluctuations confirmed the biological oxidation information. The changes of -OH, N-H, and -CH2 groups and the appearance of new functional groups (such as C-H and C-O) provided more possibilities for Mn ion adsorption and bonding.
