Bioengineered magnetic graphene oxide microcomposites for bioremediation of chromium in ex situ - A novel strategy for aggrandized recovery by electromagnetic gadgetry. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2022; 308:119675. [PMID: 35753546 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2022.119675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Novel magnetic microcomposites consisting of graphene oxide and iron oxide was synthesized to immobilize metabolically versatile Paracoccus sp. MKU1 and Leucobacter sp. AA7 and tested for the simultaneous adsorption and enhanced biological detoxification of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) from tannery wastewater. This study reports highest chromium adsorption of 272.6 mg/g and 179.3 mg/g with complete reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) by the microcomposites of AA7 and MKU1 from wastewater in a bioreactor (10 L) at large-scale for first time in ex situ. Furthermore, both the microcomposites displayed an enhanced detoxification of tannery wastewater by reducing various physicochemical conditions such as ammonia, nitrate, TDS, fluoride, CaCO3, Ca, Mg, NO3 and SO2 under the permissible limits. Use of electromagnetic device for magnetic microcomposites recovery from bioreactor yielded a maximum of 88% and 80.6% recovery for AA7 and MKU1, respectively. The rate of chromium recuperation achieved following desorption from the microcomposites of AA7 and MKU1 was 90.71% and 93.97%, respectively. Thus, the multifarious benefits including adsorption, metabolic detoxification, recovery, and recuperation by single functional microcomposites seems to be an intriguing and profitable approach for practicing in real-time operations to effectively remove heavy metals from the contaminated wastewater for environmental protection.

Abstract
Carbon-based nanomaterials (CBNMs) have attracted significant alert due to the affluent science underpinning their implementations associated with a novel mixture of high aspect proportions, greater thermal and electrical performance, outstanding optical features, and high exterior area. CBNMs not only bear assurance in a broad range of implementations in medication, nano and microelectronics, and ecological remedies but may also be utilized in practical laboratory determinations. More specifically, CBNMs perform as an outstanding adsorbent in terminating heavy metal ions (HMI) from wastewater. There is presently a deficiency of powerful threat inspection instruments owing to their complex detection and related deficit in the health risk database. Therefore, our present review concentrates on spreading CBNMs to release pollutants from wastewater. The article wraps the effect of these contaminants and photocatalytic strategies towards treating these mixtures in wastewater, along with their restrictions and challenges, convincing resolutions, and possibilities of these approaches.

Abstract
The superior photocatalytic activity of semiconductor-based photocatalytic materials has attracted great attention. In this work, a series of novel Ag3PO4/g-C3N4-x (APO/CNx) composites with the Z-scheme structure were fabricated through a facile precipitation method. B naphthol, a typical phenolic compound, was selected to evaluate the photocatalytic activity of all as-prepared photocatalysts. The obtained APO/CNx composites exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity for degradation of B naphthol under visible-light irradiation. Experimental results showed that the degradation rate toward B naphthol could reach to 90.5% for 180 min, which was almost 3.66 times higher than pure g-C3N4, indicating that the presence of nitrogen vacancies and Z-scheme structure could efficiently improve the photocatalytic performance of pure g-C3N4. Furthermore, the results of trapping experiments and electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy manifest that •O2- and •OH radicals were the predominant active substances for B naphthol degradation, and the possible mechanism of improved photocatalytic performance was elucidated. This work will provide an innovative perspective for constructing Z-scheme photocatalysts for the application of photocatalytic in the field of wastewater treatment.

Fabrication of MNPs/rGO/PMMA Composite for the Removal of Hazardous Cr(VI) from Tannery Wastewater through Batch and Continuous Mode Adsorption. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2021; 14:6923. [PMID: 34832323 PMCID: PMC8620348 DOI: 10.3390/ma14226923] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2021] [Revised: 11/05/2021] [Accepted: 11/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Herein, we report the synthesis of magnetic nanoparticle (MNP)-reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) composite (MNPs/rGO/PMMA) as adsorbent via an in situ fabrication strategy and, in turn, the application for adsorptive removal and recovery of Cr(VI) from tannery wastewater. The composite material was characterized via XRD, FTIR and SEM analyses. Under batch mode experiments, the composite achieved maximum adsorption of the Cr(VI) ion (99.53 ± 1.4%, i.e., 1636.49 mg of Cr(VI)/150 mg of adsorbent) at pH 2, adsorbent dose of 150 mg/10 mL of solution and 30 min of contact time. The adsorption process was endothermic, feasible and spontaneous and followed a pseudo-2nd order kinetic model. The Cr ions were completely desorbed (99.32 ± 2%) from the composite using 30 mL of NaOH solution (2M); hence, the composite exhibited high efficiency for five consecutive cycles without prominent loss in activity. The adsorbent was washed with distilled water and diluted HCl (0.1M), then dried under vacuum at 60 °C for reuse. The XRD analysis confirmed the synthesis and incorporation of magnetic iron oxide at 2θ of 30.38°, 35.5°, 43.22° and 57.36°, respectively, and graphene oxide (GO) at 25.5°. The FTIR analysids revealed that the composite retained the configurations of the individual components, whereas the SEM analysis indicated that the magnetic Fe3O4-NPs (MNPs) dispersed on the surface of the PMMA/rGO sheets. To anticipate the behavior of breakthrough, the Thomas and Yoon-Nelson models were applied to fixed-bed column data, which indicated good agreement with the experimental data. This study evaluates useful reference information for designing a cost-effective and easy-to-use adsorbent for the efficient removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater. Therefore, it can be envisioned as an alternative approach for a variety of unexplored industrial-level operations.
