Eggshell derived scaffold of hydroxyapatite-ammonium bicarbonate nano-composite: Bioactivity and cytotoxicity studies. Heliyon 2024; 10:e36493. [PMID: 39295995 PMCID: PMC11407944 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e36493] [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: 06/01/2024] [Revised: 08/15/2024] [Accepted: 08/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/21/2024] Open
Abstract
This work investigated the facile synthesis of porous scaffold eggshell derived hydroxylapatite (ESHAp) as a composite with ammonium bicarbonate (AMB) for potential biomaterial in tissue engineering application. The phase purity, composition, size, functional groups and morphology of the apatite were elucidated using high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HTEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that hydroxylapatite (HAp) nanoparticles have round morphologies with average diameters between 20 nm and 80 nm, FT-IR analysis confirmed significant hydroxylapatite functional groups like carbonate, phosphate, and hydroxyl groups, while XRD analysis revealed a well crystalline monophasic HAp powder. The scaffold samples containing 10, 20, 25 and 30 % of AMB withstood a compressive stress up to 5, 20, 30 and 42 N/mm2 respectively which indicates that the compressive stress increased with the AMB content introduced as the pore forming agent. MTT assay performed using MG63 osteosarcoma cell lines showed that on comparing the sample of ESTHAp which contained 0 % AMB with other samples in the range of 0.01-1 mM, viability of above 85 % MG63 cells was achieved except for ESTHAp with 40 % AMB, which showed some level of toxicity. The cell adhesion studies of sintered ESTHAp porous scaffold with different weight percent of the pore forming agents using inverted microscopic images of MG 63 cells incubated with ESTHAp samples and treated with heat at 1000 °C appeared to be unstable in the media used with particle leaching observed, and no cells observed near to the samples.

Abstract
The sustainable microwave (MW) synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HAp) from decarbonized eggshells was investigated. Decarbonization of eggshells, as a natural source of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), was carried out in the current study at ambient conditions to reduce the footprint of CO2 emissions on our environment where either calcination or acidic direct treatments of eggshells produce CO2 emissions, which is a major cause for global warming. Eggshell decarbonization was carried out via the chemical reaction with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) alkaline solution in order to convert eggshell waste into calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) and simultaneously store CO2 as a sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) by-product which is an essential material in many industrial sectors. The produced Ca(OH)2 was mixed with ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (NH4H2PO4) reagent at pH~11 before being subjected to MW irradiation at 2.45 GHz frequency for 5 min using 800 Watts to prepare HAp. The prepared Nano-HAp was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) where the crystal size was ~28 nm using the Scherrer equation. The elongated rod-like nano-HAp crystals were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with dispersive energy X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). MW synthesis of decarbonized eggshells is considered as a sustainable and environmentally friendly route to produce promising bioceramics such as nano-HAp. Concurrently, decarbonization of eggshells offers the ability to store CO2 as a high value-added Na2CO3 material.

Enhancement of catalytic detoxification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in fly ash from municipal solid waste incineration via magnetic hydroxyapatite-assisted hydrothermal treatment. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 918:170467. [PMID: 38290685 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.170467] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
The emission of carcinogenic, teratogenic, and mutagenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) during municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) of fly ash (FA) has attracted significant attention. Hydrothermal treatment (HT) has emerged as a practical approach for degrading PAHs during MSWI of FA by utilizing magnetite (Fe3O4) as a catalyst and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidizing agent. In this study, as an alternative to traditional hydroxyapatite (HAP), eggshell-derived magnetic hydroxyapatite (MHAP) was synthesized and applied in the hydrothermal catalytic degradation of PAHs in MSWI FA in an H2O2 system for the first time. The degradation efficiency of the PAHs is influenced not only by H2O2 but also by the choice of hydroxyapatite. Adding HAP or MHAP during hydrothermal treatment with H2O2 substantially reduced the overall PAH concentration and toxicity equivalent quantity (TEQ), superior to that without H2O2. MHAP demonstrated superior catalytic activity compared to HAP in the presence of H2O2 in the hydrothermal system. The hydrothermal detoxification of the PAHs increased with increasing MHAP dosage. By employing 0.5 mol/L H2O2 as the oxidant and 15 wt% MHAP as the catalyst, a total PAH degradation rate of 88.9 % was achieved, with a remarkable TEQ degradation rate of 98.3 %. Notably, the level of 4-6-ring PAHs, particularly benzo(a) pyrene (BaP) and dibenz(a,h)anthracene (DahA), with a TEQ of 1.0, was significantly reduced (by 69.4 % and 46.0 %, respectively). MHAP remained stable during the hydrothermal catalytic process, whereas H2O2 was effectively activated by MHAP and decomposed to produce strongly oxidizing hydroxyl (•OH) under hydrothermal conditions. •OH produced from the decomposition of H2O2 and metals on the surface of MHAP act as catalytically active centers, efficiently converting high-ring PAHs to low-ring PAHs. These findings provide valuable insights and a technological foundation for PAH detoxification in MSWI FA via hydrothermal catalytic oxidation.

Abstract
In the hunt of waste recovery pathways, eggshells emerged as a potential adsorbent for fluoride because they contain plenty of calcium. However, as the main component, calcite has weak interaction with fluoride. In this study, calcium hydroxide was derived from waste eggshells successfully by an aging treatment with moisture for fluoride recovery from water. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analyses indicate that CaO in calcined egg shells (AEG900) is completely converted to calcium hydroxide. The adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption capacity of AEG900 for fluoride was improved by nearly 29.21% compared with the calcined eggshells without the aging treatment. In the batch experiment, the temperature effect is the most significant for the adsorption process, and nearly a half increment of removal rate is achieved by increasing the temperature by 30 °C. Further research revealed that the adsorption process fitted well with the pseudo-second order model and the Langmuir–Freundlich isotherm model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 370.15 mg g−1. Moreover, precipitation was regarded as the main step for fluoride removal mechanism based on the calculated results of the surface complexation model. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results showed that the stable fluorite formed in situ of AEG900 avoids calcium loss in water. Finally, AEG900 was applied in fluoride removal with real-life groundwater and industrial wastewater, and the results showed that the final fluoride concentration could meet the WHO requirement and industrial wastewater discharge standard. Calcium hydroxide derived from eggshells can remove F− efficiently in water with the adsorption capacity of 370.15 mg g−1, and the final concentration can meet the guidelines of the WHO, which is below 1.5 mg L−1.![]()

Abstract
The present work reports the study on the green synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanoadsorbents using Peltophorum pterocarpum pod extract. HAP nanoadsorbents were characterized by using FESEM, EDS, TEM, XRD, FTIR, XPS, and BET analyses. The results highlighted the high purity, needle-like aggregations, and crystalline nature of the prepared HAP nanoadsorbents. The surface area was determined as 40.04 m2/g possessing mesopores that can be related to the high adsorption efficiency of the HAP for the removal of a toxic dye, - Acid Blue 113 (AB 113) from water. Central Composite Design (CCD) was used for optimizing the adsorption process, which yielded 94.59% removal efficiency at the optimum conditions (dose: 0.5 g/L, AB 113 dye concentration: 25 ppm, agitation speed: 173 rpm, and adsorption time: 120 min). The adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order model (R2:0.9996) and the equilibrium data fitted well with the Freundlich isotherm (R2:0.9924). The thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption of AB 113 was a spontaneous and exothermic process. The highest adsorption capacity was determined as 153.85 mg/g, which suggested the promising role of green HAP nanoadsorbents in environmental remediation applications.

Abstract
Water contaminated with phosphorus needs to be managed efficiently to ensure that clean water sources will be preserved. Aquaculture plays an essential role in supplying food and generating high revenue. However, the quantity of phosphorus released from aquaculture effluents is among the major concerns for the environment. Phosphorus is a non-renewable, spatially concentrated material essential for global food production. Phosphorus is also known as a primary source of eutrophication. Hence, phosphorus recovery and separation from different wastewater streams are mandatory. This paper reviews the source of phosphorus in the environment, focusing on aquaculture wastewater as a precursor for hydroxyapatite formation evaluates the research progress on maximizing phosphorus removal from aquaculture wastewater effluents and converting it into a conversion. Shrimp shell waste appears to be an essential resource for manufacturing high-value chemicals, given current trends in wealth creation from waste. Shrimp shell waste is the richest source of calcium carbonate and has been used to produce hydroxyapatite after proper treatment is reviewed. There have been significant attempts to create safe and long-term solutions for the disposal of shrimp shell debris. Through the discussion, the optimum condition of the method, the source of phosphorus, and the calcium are the factors that influence the formation of hydroxyapatite as a pioneer in zero-waste management for sustainability and profitable approach. This review will provide comprehensive documentation on resource utilization and product development from aquaculture wastewater and waste to achieve a zero-waste approach.

Abstract
The leaf extract of Muntingia calabura is being first reported to be used for the synthesis superparamagnetic hematite nanoparticles by following the green-chemistry approach. Field Emission - Scanning Electron Microscopic image revealed the formation of irregular nano spheroids averaging at 48.57 nm in size and characteristic of Fe and O atoms, as revealed by Energy Dispersive X-Ray spectrum. X-ray diffraction analysis results proved the crystallinity of hematite diffraction planes with crystallite sizes averaging at 30.68 nm. The lattice parameter values stayed concordant with the literature. The superparamagnetic nature was attested by the high value of saturation magnetism (2.20 emu/g) with negligible coercivity and retentivity. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy results affirmed numerous moieties involved in the synthesis of hematite nanoparticles and the existence of signature Fe-O bands. Thermogravimetric analysis studies portrayed the thermal behavior nanoparticles with 28% weight loss and thermal stability was attained after 700 °C. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis confirmed the valence states of Fe and O in the hematite nanoparticles and ascertained the purity. The mesoscopic structure was revealed by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller studies with considerable surface area (112.50 m2/g). The Fenton-like catalysis mediated by the nanoparticle sample was demonstrated by degrading methylene blue dye. The remarkable degradation efficiency of 93.44% was obtained and the kinetics was conformed to a second-order model with a high R2 value. Therefore, the highly crystalline and mesoporous superparamagnetic hematite spheroids prepared using the leaf extract of M. calabura would find promising applications in various catalysis processes.

Abstract
Contamination and waste heat are major issues in water pollution. Aiming at efficient synchronous recovery wastewater and waste heat, we designed a novel CaCO3-based phase-change microcapsule system with an n-docosane core and a CaCO3/Fe3O4 composite shell. The system was fabricated through an emulsion-templated in situ precipitation approach in a structure-directing mode, resulting in a controllable morphology for the resultant microcapsules, varying from a peanut hull through ellipsoid to dumbbell shapes. The system has a significantly enlarged specific surface area of approximately 55 m2·g-1 with the CaCO3 phase transition from vaterite to calcite. As a result, the microcapsule system exhibits improved adsorption capacities of 497.6 and 79.1 mg/g for Pb2+ and Rhodamine B removal, respectively, from wastewater. Moreover, increase in the specific surface area of the microcapsule system with a sufficient latent heat capacity of approximately 130 J·g-1 also resulted in an enhanced heat energy-storage capability and thermal conductance for waste-heat recovery. The microcapsule system also exhibits a good leakage-prevention capability and good multicycle reusability owing to the tight magnetic CaCO3/Fe3O4 composite shell. This study provides a promising approach for developing CaCO3-based phase-change microcapsules with enhanced thermal energy storage and adsorption capabilities for efficient synchronous recovery of wastewater and waste heat.
