Abstract
Waste derived from the textile industry can contain a wide variety of pollutants of organic and inorganic natures, such as dyes (e.g., acid, basic, reactive, mordant dyes) and toxic metals (e.g., lead, chromium, cadmium). The presence of pollutants at high concentrations in textile waste makes them relevant sources of pollution in the environment. To solve this problem, various technologies have been developed for the removal of pollutants from these matrices. Thus, adsorption emerges as an efficient alternative for textile waste remediation, providing advantages as simplicity of operation, economy, possibility of using different adsorbent materials, and developing on-line systems that allow the reuse of the adsorbent during several adsorption/desorption cycles. This review will initially propose an introduction to the adsorption world, its fundamentals, and aspects related to kinetics, equilibrium, and thermodynamics. The possible mechanisms through which a pollutant can be retained on an adsorbent will be explained. The analytical techniques that offer valuable information to characterize the solid phases as well as each adsorbate/adsorbent system will be also commented. The most common synthesis techniques to obtain carbon nano-adsorbents have been also presented. In addition, the latest advances about the use of these adsorbents for the removal of pollutants from textile waste will be presented and discussed. The contributions reported in this manuscript demonstrated the use of highly efficient carbon-based nano-adsorbents for the removal of both organic and inorganic pollutants, reaching removal percentages from 65 to 100%.

Recovery, regeneration and sustainable management of spent adsorbents from wastewater treatment streams: A review. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 822:153555. [PMID: 35104528 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.153555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 83] [Impact Index Per Article: 41.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2021] [Revised: 01/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/26/2022] [Indexed: 04/15/2023]
Abstract
Adsorption is the most widely adopted, effective, and reliable treatment process for the removal of inorganic and organic contaminants from wastewater. One of the major issues with the adsorption-treatment process for the removal of contaminants from wastewater streams is the recovery and sustainable management of spent adsorbents. This review focuses on the effectiveness of emerging adsorbents and how the spent adsorbents could be recovered, regenerated, and further managed through reuse or safe disposal. The critical analysis of both conventional and emerging adsorbents on organic and inorganic contaminants in wastewater systems are evaluated. The various recovery and regeneration techniques of spent adsorbents including magnetic separation, filtration, thermal desorption and decomposition, chemical desorption, supercritical fluid desorption, advanced oxidation process and microbial assisted adsorbent regeneration are discussed in detail. The current challenges for the recovery and regeneration of adsorbents and the methodologies used for solving those problems are covered. The spent adsorbents are managed through regeneration for reuse (such as soil amendment, capacitor, catalyst/catalyst support) or safe disposal involving incineration and landfilling. Sustainable management of spent adsorbents, including processes involved in the recovery and regeneration of adsorbents for reuse, is examined in the context of resource recovery and circular economy. Finally, the review ends with the current drawbacks in the recovery and management of the spent adsorbents and the future directions for the economic and environmental feasibility of the system for industrial-scale application.
