JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 366:121872. [PMID: 39018848 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/19/2024]
Abstract
Numerous antibiotics are being released into the natural environment through wastewater. As antibiotic usage increases annually, its detrimental impact on the environment is escalating. Addressing environmental sustainability and human health requires significant attention towards antibiotic removal. In recent years, magnetic biochar (MBC) has gained widespread application in water treatment due to its exceptional adsorption and catalytic degradation capabilities. Antibiotics such as sulfamethoxazole (SMX), tetracycline (TC), ciprofloxacin (CIP), and others commonly exhibit an adsorption capacity by MBC ranging from 5 mg/g to 900 mg/g. Moreover, MBC typically removes over 90% of these antibiotics within 60 min. The effectiveness of antibiotic removal is significantly influenced by various preparation and modification methods. Furthermore, the incorporation of magnetism enables the material to be recycled and reused multiple times, thereby reducing consumption costs. This article discusses recent studies on antibiotic removal using MBC. It has been observed that variations in the selection of raw material and preparation procedures significantly affect antibiotic removal, while the mechanisms involved in antibiotic removal remain ambiguous. Additionally, it has been noted that the removal process may lead to secondary pollution and high preparation costs. Therefore, this review comprehensively outlines the utilization of MBC in the removal of antibiotics from wastewater, including aspects such as modification, preparation, removal mechanism, and factors influencing removal, and providing recommendations for antibiotic development. The aim is to offer researchers a clear understanding to advance the field of MBC materials.

Abstract
The unrestricted release of various toxic substances into the environment is a critical global issue, gaining increased attention in modern society. Many of these substances are pristine to various environmental compartments known as contaminants/emerging contaminants (ECs). Nanoparticles and emerging sorbents enhanced remediation is a compelling methodology exhibiting great potential in addressing EC-related issues and facilitating their elimination from the environment, particularly those compounds that demonstrate eco-toxicity and pose considerable challenges in terms of removal. It provides a novel technique enabling the secure and sustainable removal of various ECs, including persistent organic compounds, microplastics, phthalate, etc. This extensive review presents a critical perspective on the current advancements and potential outcomes of nano-enhanced remediation techniques such as photocatalysis, nano-sensing, nano-enhanced sorbents, bio/phyto-remediation, which are applied to clean-up the natural environment. In addition, when dealing with residual contaminants, special attention is paid to both health and environmental implications; therefore, an evaluation of the long-term sustainability of nano-enhanced remediation methods has been considered. The integrated mechanical approaches were thoroughly discussed and presented in graphical forms. Thus, the critical evaluation of the integrated use of most emerging remediation technologies will open a new dimension in environmental safety and clean-up program.

Abstract
Changes in the activated sludge performance in an anaerobic/aerobic biological treatment system for leachate was discussed under the condition of tetracycline (TC) exposure. The results show that a low concentration of TC did not have an obvious effect on the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) while a high concentration of TC had a certain promoting effect. Under the stimulation of TC, the particle size distribution of anaerobic/aerobic sludge tended to be more uniform, the particle size of anaerobic sludge decreased while the settleability increased; however, the particle size of aerobic sludge increased due to bulking. With the addition of TC, the concentration of most heavy metal ions in sludge samples increased.TC exposure results in the release of a large amount of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), thus leading to a smoother surface of anaerobic sludge and a rougher surface of aerobic sludge. The high removal efficiency of COD under the high concentration of TC was also presumed to be due to EPS promoting the microbial absorption of anaerobic substances in the leachate. The results clearly showed that TC had a bacteriostatic effect. After antibiotic exposure, the abundance and diversity index of bacteria in each reactor decreased obviously, the microbial community evolved, and the dominant species at the genus and phylum levels of anaerobic/aerobic reactors changed. This study provides a better understanding the effect of TC on activated sludge and has reference value for the management of antibiotic exposure in leachate treatment facilities.

Photocatalytic Degradation of Antibiotics via Exploitation of a Magnetic Nanocomposite: A Green Nanotechnology Approach toward Drug-Contaminated Wastewater Reclamation. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:7986-8004.

Abstract
In the quest for eco-conscious innovations, this research was designed for the sustainable synthesis of magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles, using ferric chloride hexahydrate salt as a precursor and extract of Eucalyptus globulus leaves as both a reducing and capping agent, which are innovatively applied as a photocatalyst for the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics "ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin". Sugar cane bagasse biomass, sugar cane bagasse pyrolyzed biochar, and magnetite/sugar cane bagasse biochar nanocomposite were also synthesized via environmentally friendly organized approaches. The optimum conditions for the degradation of ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin were found to be pH 6 for ciprofloxacin and 5 for amoxicillin, dosage of the photocatalyst (0.12 g), concentration (100 mg/L), and irradiation time (240 min). The maximum efficiencies of percentage degradation for ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin were found to be (73.51%) > (63.73%) > (54.57%) and (74.07%) > (61.55%) > (50.66%) for magnetic nanocomposites, biochar, and magnetic nanoparticles, respectively. All catalysts demonstrated favorable performance; however, the "magnetite/SCB biochar" nanocomposite exhibited the most promising results among the various catalysts employed in the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics. Kinetic studies for the degradation of antibiotics were also performed, and notably, the pseudo-first-order chemical reaction showed the best results for the degradation of antibiotics. Through a comprehensive and comparative analysis of three unique photocatalysts, this research identified optimal conditions for efficient treatment of drug-contaminated wastewater, thus amplifying the practical significance of the findings. The recycling of magnetic nanoparticles through magnetic separation, coupled with their functional modification for integration into composite materials, holds significant application potential in the degradation of antibiotics.

Abstract
Food safety has increasingly become a human health issue that concerns all countries in the world. Some substances in food that can pose a significant threat to human health include, but are not limited to, pesticides, biotoxins, antibiotics, pathogenic bacteria, food quality indicators, heavy metals, and illegal additives. The traditional methods of food contaminant detection have practical limitations or analytical defects, restricting their on-site application. Hydrogels with the merits of a large surface area, highly porous structure, good shape-adaptability, excellent biocompatibility, and mechanical stability have been widely studied in the field of food safety sensing. The classification, response mechanism, and recent application of hydrogel-based biosensors in food safety are reviewed in this paper. Furthermore, the challenges and future trends of hydrogel biosensors are also discussed.

Abstract
The release of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) and methylene blue (MB) dye into the aquatic system uncontrollably caused major environmental and health problems; hence, their prevention required serious attention. Adsorption process is now being researched in order to increase adsorption efficiency and reprocess to alleviate environmental issues. The use of magnetic nanoparticle as an adsorbent for wastewater treatment has a lot of prospective. A magnetic iron oxide nanoparticle surface modified by Vasaka (Justicia adhatoda) leaf extract (JA-MIONs) is used to give a fast removal approach for MB dye and TCH antibiotics. Dynamic light scattering, UV-Vis and band gap measurement, powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy were operated to analyse the formation and size of these magnetic nanoparticles. The impacts of different factors such as contact time (30-150 min), adsorbate concentration (10-50 mg/L), pH (4-10), and adsorbent dose (2-10 mg) were explored. Adsorption kinetics and isotherms show that it follows the pseudo-first-order kinetic and the Freundlich isotherm, with maximum adsorption capacities of 76.92 mg/g for MB and 200 mg/g for TCH at 298 K. The reusability of the JA-MIONs eventually exhibited a decline in the adsorption percentage of MB and TCH after five and four times respectively. After the desorption-adsorption cycles, this adsorbent continued to exhibit significant adsorption capacity. This investigation furnished the significant reference data for the synthesis of JA-MIONs as a novel and auspicious adsorbent for the industrial clean-up of toxic dyes and heavily used antibiotics from water.

Abstract
Ciprofloxacin (CIP) is a third-generation fluoroquinolones (FQs) antibiotic, and the occurrence of CIP in the water environment has raised growing concerns owning to its environmental toxicity. In this paper, a novel α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO nanocomposite was synthesized via a one-step reflux method for CIP degradation through a photo-Fenton-like process. When the RGO content was 1 wt%, CIP degradation ratio by the α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO nanocomposite reached 100% under visible light irradiation within 120 min, and total organic carbon (TOC) removal ratio reached 60% within 180 min. The result of molecular fluorescence spectra highlighted that the loading of RGO on the α-(Fe, Cu)OOH significantly increased the content of hydroxyl radicals (·OH) in the heterogeneous photo-Fenton-like system and simultaneously inhibited the recombination of photogenerated electron and hole, which played critical roles in the enhancement of CIP degradation. In addition, 11 main intermediates were identified as the degradation products of CIP in the α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO/H2O2/visible light reaction systems using liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometer (LC-MS) analyses. The results demonstrated that three degradation pathways for CIP removal by α-(Fe, Cu)OOH/RGO nanocomposite occurred, including (i) oxidation on the piperazine ring and dealkylation, (ii) defluorination and decarboxylation, and (iii) hydroxylation on the quinolone ring. This work would provide a novel insight of CIP degradation pathways in photo-Fenton-like processes.

Abstract
Nowadays, pesticides are regarded as the most dangerous of the various organic pollutants, posing substantial environmental and human threats worldwide. Pesticide contamination has become one of the most crucial environmental issues due to its bio-persistence and bioaccumulation. Different conventional methods are being utilized for pesticide removal, yet pesticides are thought to be significantly present in the environment. The development and application of sophisticated wastewater treatment methods are being pursued to remove contaminants effectively, particularly pesticides. In the past several decades, nanoscience and nanotechnology have emerged as essential tools for the identification, removal, and mineralization of persistent pesticides by employing advanced nanomaterials such as pristine titanium dioxide (TiO2), doped TiO2, nanocomposites (NCs) TiO2, and ternary nanocomposites (TNCs) TiO2 by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Advancement in the characteristics of TiO2 by doping, co-doping, construction of NCs and TNCs has contributed to the dramatic efficiency up-gradation by reducing band gap, solar active photocatalyst, enhancing PCA, high photostability, chemically inertness and multiple time reusability. Based on previous literature, utilizing La-TiO2 NCs photocatalyst, the mineralization of pesticide (imidacloprid) attained up to 98.17% that is almost 40-53% greater than pristine TiO2. The present review attempt to discuss the recent research performed on TiO2 based nanoparticles (NPs) and NCs for photocatalytic mineralization of various pesticides. The basic mechanism of TiO2 photocatalysis, types of reactors used for photocatalysis, and optimized experimental conditions of TiO2 for pesticides mineralization are discussed.

Abstract
This review discusses the fundamental principles and mechanism of antibiotic removal from water of some commonly applied treatment techniques including chlorination, ozonation, UV-irradiation, Fenton processes, photocatalysis, electrochemical-oxidation, plasma, biochar, anaerobicdigestion, activated carbon and nanomaterials. Some experimental shortfalls identified by researchers such as certain characteristics of degradation agent applied and the strategies explored to override the identified limitations are briefly discussed. Depending on interactions of a range of factors including the type of antibiotic compound, operational parameters applied such as pH, temperature and treatment time, among other factors, all reviewed techniques can eliminate or reduce the levels of antibiotic compounds in water to varying extents. Some of the reviewed techniques such as anaerobic digestion generally require longer treatment times (up to 360, 193 and 170 days, according to some studies), while others such as photocatalysis achieved degradation within short contact time (within a minimum of 30, but up to 60, 240, 300 and 1880 minutes, in some cases). For some treatment techniques such as ozonation and Fenton, it is apparent that subjecting compounds to longer treatment times may improve elimination efficiency, whereas for some other techniques such as nanotechnology, application of longer treatment time generally meant comparatively minimal elimination efficiency. Based on the findings of experimental studies summarized, it is apparent that operational parameters such as pH and treatment time, while critical, do not exert sole or primary influence on the elimination percentage(s) achieved. Elimination efficiency achieved rather seems to be due more to the force of a combination of several factors.

Nguyen NTT, Nguyen LM, Nguyen TTT, Liew RK, Nguyen DTC, Tran TV. Recent advances on botanical biosynthesis of nanoparticles for catalytic, water treatment and agricultural applications: A review. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 827:154160. [PMID: 35231528 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.154160] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Revised: 02/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Green synthesis of nanoparticles using plant extracts minimizes the usage of toxic chemicals or energy. Here, we concentrate on the green synthesis of nanoparticles using natural compounds from plant extracts and their applications in catalysis, water treatment and agriculture. Polyphenols, flavonoid, rutin, quercetin, myricetin, kaempferol, coumarin, and gallic acid in the plant extracts engage in the reduction and stabilization of green nanoparticles. Ten types of nanoparticles involving Ag, Au, Cu, Pt, CuO, ZnO, MgO, TiO2, Fe3O4, and ZrO2 with emphasis on their formation mechanism are illuminated. We find that green nanoparticles serve as excellent, and recyclable catalysts for reduction of nitrophenols and synthesis of organic compounds with high yields of 83-100% and at least 5 recycles. Many emerging pollutants such as synthetic dyes, antibiotics, heavy metal and oils are effectively mitigated (90-100%) using green nanoparticles. In agriculture, green nanoparticles efficiently immobilize toxic compounds in soil. They are also sufficient nanopesticides to kill harmful larvae, and nanoinsecticides against dangerous vectors of pathogens. As potential nanofertilizers and nanoagrochemicals, green nanoparticles will open a revolution in green agriculture for sustainable development.

[PMID: 35255334 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.128556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Revised: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
This study aimed at optimizing the one-step chemical activation and microwave pyrolysis of an agro-industrial waste to obtain a microporous activated carbon (AC) with superior textural and adsorptive properties by a fast, low-reagent and low-energy process. Spent brewery grains were used as precursor, and the antibiotics sulfamethoxazole (SMX), trimethoprim (TMP) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) were considered as target adsorbates. A fractional factorial design was applied to evaluate the effect of the main factors affecting the preparation of AC (activating agent, activating agent:precursor ratio, pyrolysis temperature and residence time) on relevant responses. Under optimized conditions (K2CO3 activation, pyrolysis at 800 °C during 20 min and a K2CO3:precursor ratio of 1:2), a microporous AC with specific surface area of 1405 m2 g-1 and large adsorption of target antibiotics (82-94%) was obtained and selected for further studies. Equilibrium times up to 60 min and maximum Langmuir adsorption capacities of 859 µmol g-1 (SMX), 790 µmol g-1 (TMP) and 621 µmol g-1 (CIP) were obtained. The excellent textural and adsorptive properties of the selected material were achieved with a very fast pyrolysis and low load of activating agent, highlighting the importance of optimization studies to decrease the environmental and economic impact of waste-based AC.

Abstract
Transition metal-substituted polyoxometalates (POMs) were filled into a metal–organic framework (MOF) to construct a series of POM@MOF composites (PMo12O40@MIL-101, PMo11VO40@MIL-101, PMo10V2O40@MIL-101). The composite materials possess ultra-high adsorption ability, especially for PMo10V2O40@MIL-101, with an adsorption capacity of 912.5 mg·g−1 for cationic antibiotic tetracycline in wastewater, much higher than that of isolated MIL-101(Fe) and the commonly used adsorption materials, such as activated carbon and graphene oxide. In particular, they can be used as efficient photocatalysts for the photodegradation of antibiotics under visible light irradiation. The complete photodegradation of the adsorbed species can induce the facile reusability of these composites for multiple cycles. This work opens an avenue to introduce POMs into an MOF matrix for the simultaneous adsorption and photodegradation of antibiotics.

Abstract
A novel bifunctional β-lactamase/esterase (LgLacI), which is capable of hydrolyzing β-lactam-containing antibiotics including ampicillin, oxacillin, and cefotaxime as well as synthesizing biodiesels, was cloned from Lactococcus garvieae. Unlike most bacterial esterases/lipases that have G-x-S-x-G motif, LgLacI, which contains S-x-x-K catalytic motif, has sequence similarities to bacterial family VIII esterase as well as β-lactamases. The catalytic properties of LgLacI were explored using a wide range of biochemical methods including spectroscopy, assays, structural modeling, mutagenesis, and chromatography. We confirmed the bifunctional property of LgLacI hydrolyzing both esters and β-lactam antibiotics. This study provides novel perspectives into a bifunctional enzyme from L. garvieae, which can degrade β-lactam antibiotics with high esterase activity.

Abstract
Antibiotics overuse, inappropriate conduct, and discharge have led to adverse effects on various ecosystems. The occurrence of antibiotics in surface and drinking water is a matter of global concern. It is responsible for multiple disorders, including disruption of endocrine hormones and high chronic toxicity. The hospitals, pharmaceutical industries, households, cattle farms, and aquaculture are the primary discharging sources of antibiotics into the environment. This review provides complete detail on applying different nanomaterials or nanoparticles for the efficient removal of antibiotics from the diverse ecosystem with a broader perspective. Efforts have been made to focus on the degradation pathways and mechanism of antibiotic degradation using nanomaterials. More light has been shed on applying nanostructures in photocatalysis, which would be an economical and efficient solution. The nanoscale material or nanoparticles have incredible potential for mineralizing pharmaceutical compounds in aqueous solutions at low cost, easy handling characteristics, and high efficacy. Furthermore, nanoparticles can absorb the pharmaceutical by-products and wastes at a minimum cost as they can be easily recycled. With the increasing number of research in this direction, the valorization of pharmaceutical wastes and by-products will continue to expand as we progress from old conventional approaches towards nanotechnology. The utilization of nanomaterials in pharmaceutical wastewater remediation is discussed with a major focus on valorization, energy generation, and minimization and its role in the circular economy creating sustainable development.

Abstract
This study describes a versatile, robust and fast sample pre-concentration novel method based on chemical vapour deposition grown iron nanoparticles dispersed hierarchical carbon fiber forest (Fe-ACF/CNF) for the determination of multi-pesticide residue in water samples. This method was developed by the implementation of Fe-ACF/CNF to magnetic solid-phase extraction method (MSPE) for the adsorption of twenty-nine pesticides of various classes using gas chromatography equipped with an electron capture detector. Fe-ACF/CNF was grown via tip growth mechanism and Fe-nanoparticles are moved to the tip of CNF. The presence of Fe-nanoparticles is responsible for the magnetic property of proposed adsorbents. The Fe-ACF/CNF is competent enough to extract twenty-nine pesticides of different physico-chemical characteristics from water samples. All the predominant parameters including the amount of sorbent desorption time, temperature, sonication effect, regeneration, and reusability of Fe-ACF/CNF were thoroughly investigated. Acceptable linearity was obtained in the range of 20-500 μg/L with a correlation coefficient value ≥ 0.990 for all pesticides. The accuracy of the developed method was evaluated and the obtained recovery of the spiked samples was within 70-120% (standard deviation ≤ 15%) and reusability up to the 4th cycle. The limit of detection and quantification values was in the range of 1.44-5.15 and 4.76-17.0 μg/L, respectively. The obtained results are also cross verified with real water samples from the Gomti river (Lucknow, India) and shown the excellent extraction efficiency of Fe-ACF/CNF.

Abstract
A challenging task in analytical chemistry is an application of renewable and natural materials for isolation of hazardous substances such as antimicrobial drugs from environmental samples. The energy-efficient scalable hydrothermal procedure to fabricate the eco-friendly "switchable" sorbent based on hydroxyapatite nanoparticles with in situ modified surface using a small amount of capping agents was developed. Sorbents characterization including the surface composition investigation via quantum-chemical calculation based on the original approach was provided. The sorbents demonstrated well expressed controllable surface switching and high values of the sorption and elution efficiency for tetracycline, oxytetracycline, and chlortetracycline achieved by simple change of the medium pH. These processes were thoroughly discussed based on the results of chemical and computational experiments. A simple and universal strategy for choosing a suitable sorbent for solid phase extraction of target analytes was proposed for the first time. It was shown that the developed eco-friendly sample preparation procedure with use of biocompatible sorbents could be applied both for removal of target analytes from sample matrix (water samples) as well as for the quantitative analytes determination after elution step. It is believed that the presented research is significant for the determination of different amphoteric analytes in wide variety of samples.

Abstract
The increasing discharge of high-salinity organic wastewater has drawn much concern. This work investigated the degradation and mineralization of ciprofloxacin (CIP) in high-salinity wastewater by ozonation coupled with ultraviolet irradiation (UV). After coupling with UV, the removal efficiency of CIP was increased insignificantly (maximum 5.0%), while the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) removal in CIP wastewater (CW) was enhanced dramatically to 91.4% as compared with independent O3 (37.5%). The reactive oxygen species (ROS) were identified as singlet oxygen (1O2) and superoxide anion radical (O2-•)·through electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and quenching experiments, among which 1O2 predominated in the UV/O3 process. The existence of salt (Na2SO4 or NaCl) accelerated the mass transfer of O3 at the gas-liquid interface, thus CIP removal was promoted in UV/O3/SO42- system. However, excessive Cl- inhibited the removal efficiency of DOC in CW owing to its consumption of O3. CIP degradation decreased as pH increased in non-salinity and UV/O3/SO42- system, which proved the direct reaction occurred between CIP and O3. On the contrary, the O3 mass transfer increased with increasing pH, hence the elimination of DOC in CW was promoted in UV/O3/Cl- system. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were detected from tail gas, but the toxicity estimation indicated the toxicity of products was similar or less than that of CIP. Overall, this work is meaningful for the practical application of UV/O3 process in the high-salinity industry.

Sulfadiazine removal using green zero-valent iron nanoparticles: A low-cost and eco-friendly alternative technology for water remediation. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2021; 198:110451. [PMID: 33188761 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2020.110451] [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: 06/04/2020] [Revised: 10/26/2020] [Accepted: 11/07/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
In this work, the effectiveness of green zero-valent iron nanoparticles (gnZVIs) for the removal of the antibiotic sulfadiazine (SDZ) from water via adsorption and reduction was tested. Additionally, the effectiveness of this material as a catalyst for the Fenton and photo-Fenton processes was also investigated. This represents the first study concerning the use of gnZVIs for the degradation of a sulfonamide antibiotic. The results obtained indicate that gnZVIs were able to remove up to 58% of SDZ via adsorption and up to 69% via adsorption plus reduction using a SDZ/Fe3+ molar ratio of 1:61.6. Furthermore, gnZVIs showed strong effectiveness as a catalyst for the Fenton and photo-Fenton reactions, with complete SDZ removal in 8 h and 5 min, respectively, using a SDZ/Fe3+/H2O2 molar ratio of 1:38.4:38.4. These results demonstrate that the use of gnZVIs constitutes an attractive and potential alternative technology for water remediation, reducing environmental impact and operational costs.

Abstract
Environmental pollution due to antibiotics is a serious problem. In this work, the adsorption and desorption of the antibiotic cefuroxime (CFX) were studied in four by-products/residues from the forestry and food industries. For this, batch-type experiments were carried out, adding increasing concentrations of CFX (from 0 to 50 µmol L−1) to 0.5 g of adsorbent. The materials with a pH higher than 9 (mussel shell and wood ash) were those that presented the highest adsorption percentages, from 71.2% (23.1 µmol kg−1) to 98.6% (928.0 µmol kg−1). For the rest of the adsorbents, the adsorption was also around 100% when the lowest concentrations of CFX were added, but the percentage dropped sharply when the highest dose of the antibiotic was incorporated. Adsorption data fitted well to the Langmuir and Freundlich models, with R2 greater than 0.9. Regarding desorption, the materials that presented the lowest values when the highest concentration of CFX was added were wood ash (0%) and mussel shell (2.1%), while pine bark and eucalyptus leaves presented the highest desorption (26.6% and 28.6%, respectively). Therefore, wood ash and mussel shell could be considered adsorbents with a high potential to be used in problems of environmental contamination by CFX.

Abstract
Nowadays, advanced oxidation processes, particularly photocatalyst process and catalytic ozonation by ZnO nanoparticles, are the most efficient method of eliminating pharmaceuticals. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficiency of ultraviolet/zinc oxide (UV/ZnO) and ozone/zinc oxide (O3/ZnO) techniques as advanced oxidation processes in the removal of trimethoprim (TMP) from aqueous solutions. The process consisted of 0.6 g/L of ozone (O3), pH = 7.5 ± 0.5, TMP with a concentration of 0.5–5 mg/L, ZnO with a dose of 50–500 mg/L, 5–30 min reaction time, and 30–180 min contact time with UV radiation (6 W, 256 nm) in a continuous reactor. The high removal efficiency was achieved after 25 minutes when ZnO is used in 1 mg/L TMP under an operational condition at pH 7.5. When the concentration of the pollutant increased from 0.5 to 1, the average removal efficiency increased from 78% to 94%, and then, it remained almost constant. An increase in the reaction time from 5 to 25 minutes will cause the average elimination to increase from 84% to 94%. The results showed that the efficiency of O3/ZnO process in the removal of TMP was 94%, while the removal efficiency of UV/ZnO process was 91%. The findings exhibited that the kinetic study followed the second-order kinetics, both processes. With regard to the results, the photocatalyst process and catalytic ozonation by ZnO nanoparticles can make acceptable levels for an efficient posttreatment. Finally, this combined system is proven to be a technically effective method for treating antibiotic contaminants.

Abstract
Green approach has received major attention for the synthesis of metal oxide nanoparticles. One such metal oxide nanoparticles are iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs). IONPs have fetched a great deal of interest in recent era because of their magnetic nature, as they can be easily recovered from the reaction mixture by applying an external magnetic field. Although, a variety of chemical and physical methods of synthesis are known, green synthesis is safer, sustainable and biologically acceptable. Plants and microbes are the main biological materials used for the green synthesis. In present review, the synthesis of IONPs by using plants, bacteria, fungi and algae have been highlighted. IONPs produced by plants, fungi, bacteria and algae usually falls in 1–100 nm range and are of distinct shapes like cubic, tetragonal crystalline, spherical, cylindrical, elliptical, octahedral, orthorhombic, hexagonal rods, nanosphere and quasi spherical. Furthermore, these biomaterials play role of reducing, capping, stabilizing and fabricating agents in green synthesis of nanoparticles. The review put forward a comprehensive report of various routes used for synthesizing IONP, biologically. Intuition into the procedures for synthesis of nanoparticles will help to nourish our learning in the area of nanotechnology.

Abstract
The unique properties of graphene and graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites make them suitable for a wide range of medical, industrial, and agricultural applications. The addition of graphene or GO to a polymeric matrix can ameliorate its thermo-mechanical, electrical, and barrier characteristics. The present paper reviews the literature on graphene/GO-based bio-nanocomposites and examines the various fabrication methods, such as chemical vapor deposition, chemical synthesis, microwave synthesis, the solvothermal method, molecular beam epitaxy, and colloidal suspension. Each procedure potentially has its disadvantages, especially for mass production. Therefore, introducing an effective method for fabricating graphene on a large scale with high quality is essential. Recent studies have shown that graphene-based bio-nanocomposites are promising materials given their excellent performance in the development of biosensors, drug delivery systems, antimicrobials, modified electrodes, and energy storage systems among other applications. In this review, we evaluate the various procedures used for developing graphene/GO-based bio-nanocomposites and examine the features and applications of the related products. Furthermore, the toxicity of these compounds and attempts to uncover the optimal combinations of biopolymers and carbon nanomaterials for industrial applications will be discussed.

Abstract
Antibiotic contamination has already been one of hazards to aquatic environment due to the abuse of antibiotics. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are known as a kind of promising porous material for solving the environmental deterioration. In this article, the physicochemical and electrochemical properties of a series of porous copper oxide carbon materials (CuOx-C) synthesized by carbonizing Cu-BTC were compared. Due to the suitable carbonization temperature, CuOx-C-550 N, whose geometric structure was similar to Cu-BTC, possessed a multiscale pore structure containing many mesopores and partial macropores in accordance with the pore size distribution curves. More copper/copper oxides were introduced toimproving the electrochemical ability, evidence by XRD, XPS, CV and EIS characterization. Moreover, the degradation of ceftazidime (CAZ) through anodic oxidation was discussed. In AO/CuOx-C-550 N system, the effects of current, solution pH, initial CAZ concentration and Na2SO4 concentration were analyzed. CAZ removal rate reached 100% within 20 min under the optimal condition and a good electrocatalytic ability with 90% CAZ removal after 20 runs indicated a good electrochemical stability of CuOx-C-550 N. Furthermore, the degradation mechanism and pathway of CAZ were proposed. The Cu(II)/Cu(I) oxidation-reduction couples on the anodic surface contribute to the efficiently selective degradation of cephalosporins for CuOx-C-550 N. Overall, this study shows a good method to design and prepare a new MOF derivative for the remediation of aquatic contamination.

Abstract
This study has systematically reviewed all of the research articles about the photocatalytic degradation of pesticides using titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Online databases were searched for peer-reviewed research articles and conference proceedings published during 2009-2019, and ultimately 112 eligible articles were included in the review. Fifty-three active ingredients of pesticides and one mixture had been investigated, most of them were organophosphorus (22%), followed by triazine derivatives (11%), chloropyridines (9%), and organochlorines (9%). Sixteen types of TiO2 with an average photodegradation efficiency of 71% were determined. Based on the type of pesticide and experimental conditions such as irradiation time, the complete photodegradation had been observed. The removal of each group of pesticides has been sufficiently discussed in the article. Effect of experimental conditions on photocatalytic activity has been investigated using linear and polynomial regressions. The strategies to reduce the required energy for this process, doping TiO2 with metal and non-metal agents, innovative reactor designs, etc., were also discussed. In conclusion, TiO2 NPs have been successful for degradation of pesticides. Future direction for research incorporates developing and application of heterogeneous doped and immobilized titania having optimized characteristics such as surface area, reactive centers, recombination rate, and phase, and capable to photo-degrade low levels of pesticides residues under solar light in an efficient full-scale size.

Abstract
In this study, batch and column tests were performed to investigate the co-transport of graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles and tetracycline in saturated porous media under various solution chemistry conditions. Research indicated that GO and tetracycline had mutual promotion effect on their transport in the porous media under all the tested conditions, which was ascribed to the high adsorption capacity of tetracycline onto GO and the increased electrostatic repulsion as well as their competition for deposition sites on sand surfaces. Interestingly, the mutually promoting function of GO and tetracycline under acidic conditions was greater than that under alkaline conditions, the dominant mechanism was that the increased solution pH decreased the sorption of tetracycline onto GO and weakened the deposition site competition. Furthermore, the mutually promoting effect of GO and tetracycline was Na+ or Ca2+ concentration-dependent. Specially, increased Ca2+ concentration weakened the promoting effect of GO on tetracycline transport but magnified the promoting effect of tetracycline on GO transport. This is because higher Ca2+ concentration could cause a decrease in the adsorption of tetracycline on GO and facilitate more tetracycline molecules to occupy the deposition sites on sand surfaces. Additionally, sodium dodecyl sulfate had enhancement effect on co-transport of GO and tetracycline. Findings from this study clearly indicated that antibiotics and carbon based nanomaterials may transport together under various solution chemistry conditions, and consequently affect their fates in aquatic environments.

Abstract
This paper, firstly, characterizes the mining waste of the Betare-Oya gold area (East Cameroon). Surface waters are sampled and characterized physically (pH, electrical conductivity, turbidity, and suspended solids) and chemically by the determination of trace metals (Cu, Zn, Ni, Mn, Fe, Cr, As, and Pb). The concentrations of heavy metals in sediment samples are determined by X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (XRF) analysis. The statistical analysis tool is used to determine the existing correlation between the different physicochemical parameters. Secondly, an adsorption test for heavy metals determined is carried out on smectic clay of Sabga (North-West Cameroon) at ambient temperature. The results of physicochemical characterization of water samples reveal that waters of this gold mining zone are slightly acidic to neutral (6.3 pH < 7.1), mineralized (18.54 EC < 43 μs.cm-1), turbid (60 SS < 237.67 NTU), and polluted by suspended solids (50.5 < SS < 666.6 mg L-1).The determination of heavy metals in water samples shows that manganese, iron, arsenic, and lead concentrations are above the World Health Organization (WHO) limits. This indicates pollution. High concentrations of heavy metals as Cu, Ni, Mn, Fe, and Cr are observed in sediment samples. The correlation analysis indicates high correlations between turbidity and suspended solids; cadmium and lead in water samples; and copper and iron in sediment samples. The adsorption test reveals that the maximum percentage removal is 60, 89, 55, -89.74, and 100% for Cu, Zn, Mn, Fe, and Pb, respectively, after adding 0.5 g of Sabga smectic clay. This clay has a good potential adsorption of lead, zinc, manganese, and copper. However, the operating conditions favored desorption of iron.

Abstract
The evolving technology of nanoparticle synthesis, especially silver nanoparticle (AgNPs) has already been applied in various fields i.e., electronics, optics, catalysis, food, health and environment. With advancement in research, it is possible to develop nanoparticles of various size, shape, morphology, and surface to volume ratio utilizing biological systems. A number of different agents and methods can be employed to develop choice based AgNPs using algae, plants, fungi and bacteria. The use of plant extracts to produce AgNPs appears to be more convenient, as the method is simple, environmental friendly and inexpensive, also requiring a single-step. The microbial synthesis of AgNps showed intracellular and extracellular mechanisms to reduce metal ions into nanoparticles. Studies have shown that different size (1-100 nm) and shapes (spherical, triangular and hexagonal etc.) of nanoparticles can be produced from various biological routes and these diverse nanoparticles have various functions and usability i.e., agriculture, medical-science, textile, cosmetics and environment protection. The present review provides an overview of various biological systems used for AgNP synthesis, its underlying mechanisms, further highlighting the current research and applications of variable shape and sized AgNPs.

Abstract
Abstract
The aim of this research was to investigate ciprofloxacin (CIP) removal efficiency from aqueous solutions by using Fe3O4 nanoparticles @Trioctylmethylammonium thiosalicylat Ionic liquid (Fe3O4 NP@ TOMATS IL) as a new magnetic nanoadsorbent. The adsorbent was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectroscopy (FESEM-EDS), mapping, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The effects of solution pH, adsorbent dose, contact time, initial CIP concentration, and temperature on CIP removal were also investigated. In optimal conditions such as pH = 5.6, CIP concentration = 30 mg/L, adsorbent dose = 0.15 g, temperature = 30 °C, contact time = 90 min, the removal efficiency in synthetic and real wastewater were obtained 87 and 73%, respectively. Batch experiments were carried out to study the sorption Kinetics, thermodynamics, and equilibrium isotherms of CIP with magnetic nanoadsorbent. The results show that all of the above factors influence CIP removal. The Langmuir adsorption isotherm fits the adsorption process well, with the pseudo second-order model describing the adsorption kinetics accurately. The thermodynamic parameters indicate that adsorption is mainly physical adsorption. Recycling experiments revealed that the behavior of adsorbent is maintained after recycling for four times.

Abstract
Metal-organic framework based carbon material UC-X was prepared by template method, and adopted to remove cephalosporins from aqueous solution. The effect of templates including cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide and sodium laurate was discussed. The UC-0.1 with the pore size of 5.38 nm has the best adsorption. According to FTIR spectrum, with the gradual increase of sodium laurate, the functional groups like CO increased, which promoted the adsorption capacity of cefepime in UC-X materials from 42.52 to 84.23 mg⋅g-1. The optimal conditions for the adsorption of cefepime were determined by the response surface method: the adsorption temperature was 25.8 °C, the initial pH value was 6.11, and the ionic strength was 1.13 g·L-1. Under the best adsorption condition, the adsorption-desorption experiments showed that the adsorption capacity of UC-0.1 material decreased by less than 10 % after five times usage, which indicated that its recycling property was competitive. The adsorption process conformed to the mixed-order kinetic model, and the error of equilibrium adsorption capacity between model fitting and actual experiments is not more than 1 %. The overall results of adsorption isotherm model and thermodynamic analysis demonstrated that Redlich-Peterson isothermal model could describe the adsorption process better.

Abstract
One of the major problems to be addressed in aquaculture is the prominence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The occurrence of bacterial infections in cultured fishes promotes the continuous use of antibiotics in aquaculture, which results in the selection of proliferated antibiotic-resistant bacteria and increases the possibility of transfer to the whole environment through horizontal gene transfer. Hence, the accurate cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent detection methods are very much crucial for the immediate and proper management of this menace. Antimicrobial resistance determinants carrying mobile genetic transfer elements such as transposons, plasmids, integrons and gene cassettes need to be specifically analysed through molecular detection techniques. The susceptibility of microbes to antibiotics should be tested at regular intervals along with various biochemical assays and conjugation studies so as to determine the extent of spread of AMR. Advanced omic-based and bioinformatic tools can also be incorporated for understanding of genetic diversity. The present review focuses on different detection methods to unearth the complexity of AMR in aquaculture. This monitoring helps the authorities to curb the use of antibiotics, commencement of appropriate management measures and adequate substitute strategies in aquaculture. The long battle of AMR could be overcome by the sincere implementation of One Health approach. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The use of antibiotics and increased antimicrobial resistance (AMR) are of major concerns in aquaculture industry. This could result in global health risks through direct consumption of cultured fishes and dissemination of AMR to natural environment through horizontal gene transfer. Hence, timely detection of the antimicrobial-resistant pathogens and continuous monitoring programmes are inevitable. Advanced microbiological, molecular biological and omic-based tools can unravel the menace to a great extent. This will help the authorities to curb the use of antibiotics and implement appropriate management measures to overcome the threat.

Abstract
Alginate-coated magnetic nanocluster (MNC) immobilized with Hg2+-specific aptamer was synthesized to obtain the nanosorbent with high adsorption capacity and high selectivity for trace analysis of inorganic mercury (Hg2+) in water samples. Magnetite nanoparticle was first synthesized by a co-precipitation of iron precursors in the presence of alginate to obtain alginate-coated MNC, followed by immobilization with avidin. Hg2+-Specific DNA aptamer labeled with biotin was then conjugated on the MNC surface via specific avidin-biotin interaction to form aptamer-immobilized MNC. Coating the MNC with alginate can improve its water dispersibility and also increase its adsorption capacity toward Hg2+ (350 mg/g). It exhibited high selectivity through thymine-Hg2+-thymine (T-Hg2+-T) interaction with high tolerance to other foreign ions. This nanosorbent showed linearity over the Hg2+ concentration range of 0.2-10 μg/L with a correlation coefficient of 0.9977, limit of detection of 0.46 μg/L, and enrichment factor of 13. Moreover, it also showed a potential for detection of Hg2+ in drinking and tap water samples with satisfactory recoveries.

Abstract
A new method has been developed to enhance the antibacterial efficiency of traditional antibiotics. Chloramphenicol-imprinted polymer particles were decorated with boronic acid to improve their binding to both Gram-negative and -positive bacteria. The polymer particles have a high antibiotic loading and provide a slow release of the antibiotic payload to deactivate the target bacteria. The boronic acid modified polymer particles not only contribute to enhanced antibacterial efficiency, but also have the potential to act as scavengers to remove unused antibiotic from the environment.

Abstract
This study aimed to synthesize a ZnFe2O4@carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) nanophotocatalyst using a simple, facile, and green hydrothermal method for ciprofloxacin (CIP) removal from aqueous solutions. At first, ZnFe2O4@CMC was synthesized using the hydrothermal method, and then it was characterized. To assay the photocatalytic activity of ZnFe2O4@CMC, its ability was investigated in CIP and total organic carbon (TOC) removal by considering the effect of some variables such as initial CIP concentrations (5–30 mg/L), pH (3–11), nanophotocatalyst loading (0.1–0.5 g), and reaction time (20–120 min). The kinetic performance of the process was assessed by the pseudo-first order and Langmuir-Hinshelwood models. The concentration of CIP and TOC in the samples was determined using high performance liquid chromatography and a TOC analyzer, respectively. The influence of competitive compounds was examined on the efficiency of the nanophotocatalyst through its application for a real wastewater sample. Moreover, the reusability and chemical stability of ZnFe2O4@CMC were studied. Advantages of this technique are as follows: ZnFe2O4@CMC as a high potent magnetically separable photocatalyst is designed by a green, simple, and fast hydrothermal method. ZnFe2O4@CMC displays significant photocatalytic activity in photocatalytic degradation processes for ciprofloxacin removal. ZnFe2O4@CMC exhibits good chemical stability and reusability.
