[PMID: 38799209 PMCID: PMC11124699 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra02110j] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
The primary objective of this study was to examine the isolation of succinic acid (SA) from aqueous-based solutions through the utilization of adsorption and ion exchange methods. Four kinds of anion exchange resins were employed, two of which were strong basic (Lewatit M-500 and Lewatit M-600), and the other two were weak basic (Lewatit MP-64 and Lewatit MP-62). The impacts of various variables on the efficiency of the process were examined. The aqueous pH strongly influenced the separation yield. Weak basic exchangers achieved the maximum yield at pH 2.1. However, the highest performance with Lewatit M-600 and Lewatit M-500 was obtained at pH 5 and 6, respectively. The SA separation with the tested resins reached equilibrium in about an hour. The recovery data revealed consistency with the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics. Efficiency improved with resin dosage and reduced with SA concentration. It was found that weak basic anion exchange resins were more efficient than strong basic exchangers for the recovery process. Among the resins tested, Lewatit MP-62 demonstrated the highest sorption capacity of 321 mg g-1 and 97.5% yield. The performance of the system decreased with temperature for all alternatives tested; however, its impact was not notable. The isolation process had an exergonic, exothermic, and favorable character based on the thermodynamic constants. Acid-loaded resins were successfully regenerated using trimethylamine and HCl for weak and strong anion exchange resins, respectively.

Abstract
Rapid industrialization and untreated industrial effluents loaded with toxic and carcinogenic contaminants, especially dyes that discharge into environmental waters, have led to a rise in water pollution, with a substantial adverse impact on marine life and humankind. Photocatalytic techniques are one of the most successful methods that help in degradation and/or removal of such contaminants. In recent years, semiconductor quantum dots are being substituted by carbon dots (CDs) as photocatalysts, due to the ease of formation, cost-effectiveness, possible sustainability and scalability, much lower toxicity, and above all its high capacity to harvest sunlight (UV, visible, and near infrared) through electron transfer that enhances the lifetime of the photogenerated charge carriers. A better understanding between the properties of the CDs and their role in photocatalytic degradation of dyes and contaminants is required for the formation of controllable structures and adjustable outcomes. The focus of this review is on CDs and its composites as photocatalysts obtained from different sustainable green as well as chemical precursors. Apart from the synthesis, characterization, and properties of the CDs, the study also highlights the effect of different parameters on the photocatalytic properties of CDs and their composites for catalytic dye degradation mechanisms in detail. Besides the present research development in the field, potential challenges and future perspectives are also presented.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:7612.

Abstract
In this study, the efficiency of mechanically alloyed Fe80Si10B10 in degrading basic red 46 azo dye is investigated. Moreover, the influences of different parameters, such as pH and time, on the elimination of the aromatic derivatives obtained as by-products of the fracture of the azo group are also analyzed. After beginning the reduction to the normal conditions of pH (4.6) and temperature, the experimental findings showed a discoloration of 97.87% after 20 min. The structure and morphology of the nanocrystalline Fe80Si10B10 powder were characterized by SEM and XRD before and after use in the degradation process. The XRD patterns of the Fe-Si-B powder after redox reaction suggest that the valent zero Fe of the alloy is the reducing agent. Powdered cork was then used as a biosorbent for the removal of the by-products generated, resulting in increasing removal percentages from pH 7 (26%) to pH 9 (62%) and a contact time of 120 min. The FTIR spectrum of the cork after adsorption shows a shift of the bands, confirming the interaction with the aromatic amines. The present findings show that metallic powders and natural cork perform well together in removing azo dye solutions and their degradation products.

Abstract
With increasing population and limited resources, a potential route for improving sustainability is increased reuse of waste materials. By re-looking at wastes, interesting properties and multifunctionalities can be discovered in materials previously explored. Despite years of research on bio-compatible fish scales, there is limited study on the fluorescence property of this abundant waste material. Controlled denaturation of collagen and introduction of defects can serve as a means to transform the fluorescence property of these fish scale wastes while providing more adsorption sites for pollutant removal, turning multifunctional fish scales into a natural steganographic material for transmitting text and images at both the macroscopic and microscopic levels and effectively removing Rhodamine B pollutants (91 % removal) within a short contact time (10 minutes). Our work offers a glimpse into the realm of engineering defects-induced fluorescence in natural material with potential as bio-compatible fluorescence probes while encouraging multidimensional applicability to be established in otherwise overlooked waste resources.

Abstract
In this research, rice husk (RH) was utilized to prepare a magnetic adsorbent for adsorption of ascorbic acid (AA). The magnetic agent is iron(III) chloride (FeCl3). The impact of acid concentration in the range of 400-800 ppm, adsorbent dosage in the range of 0.5-1 g, and contact time in the range of 10-130 min were studied. The Langmuir model had the highest R2 of 0.9982, 0.9996, and 0.9985 at the temperature of 15, 25, and 35 °C, respectively, and the qmax values in these temperatures have been calculated at 19.157, 31.34, and 38.75 mg/g, respectively. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model had the best agreement with the experimental results. In this kinetic model, the values of q have been measured at 36.496, 45.248, and 49.019 mg/g at the acid concentration of 418, 600, and 718 ppm, respectively. The values of ΔHo and ΔSo were measured 31.972 kJ/mol and 120.253 kJ/mol K, respectively, which proves the endothermic and irregularity nature of the adsorption of AA. Besides, the optimum conditions of the design-expert software have been obtained 486.929 ppm of acid concentration, 0.875 g of the adsorbent dosage, and 105.397 min of the contact time, and the adsorption efficiency in these conditions was determined at 92.94%. The surface area of the RH and modified RH was determined of 98.17 and 120.23 m2/g, respectively, which confirms the high surface area of these two adsorbents.

Abstract
Collagen presents a well-organized hierarchical multilevel structure. Microfibers, fibers, and fiber bundles are the aggregates of natural collagen; which achieve an ideal balance of mechanical strength and toughness at the mesoscopic scale for biological tissue. These mesostructured aggregates of collagen isolated from biological tissues retain these inherent organizational features to enable their use as building blocks for constructing new collagen materials with ideal mechanical performance, thermal and dimensional stability. This strategy is distinct from the more common bottom-up or molecular-level design and assembly approach to generating collagen materials. The present review introduces the hierarchical structure of biological collagen with a focus on mesostructural features. Isolation strategies for these collagen aggregates (CAs) are summarized. Recent progress in the use of these mesostructural components for the construction of new collagen materials with emerging applications is reviewed, including in catalysis, environmental applications, biomedicine, food packaging, electrical energy storage, and flexible sensors. Finally, challenges and prospects are assessed for controllable production of CAs as well as material designs.

Removal of Methylene Blue from Aqueous Solution by Mixture of Reused Silica Gel Desiccant and Natural Sand or Eggshell Waste. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:1618. [PMID: 36837246 PMCID: PMC9965102 DOI: 10.3390/ma16041618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2022] [Revised: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 02/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
The purpose of this work was to develop, characterize and test new low-cost materials suitable for removing methylene blue dye from water and wastewater by adsorption. The solid materials consisted of silica gel powder (SG), silica gel mixed with eggshell powder (SG-ES) and a mixture of silica gel with sand from the western Iraqi desert (SG-SI). The samples were milled by using an electrical mixer and a ball mill, followed by a drying step. In addition, desert sand was acid-treated in order to remove impurities. The structure and chemical composition of the samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), a scanning electron microscopy technique equipped with an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM-EDX), a low-temperature nitrogen adsorption (BET) technique, thermo-analytical (TG/TGA) measurements and Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The previously mentioned materials were tested to remove methylene blue from an aqueous solution. The adsorption experiments were monitored by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectrophotometry and showed that SG and SG-ES gave promising results for the methylene blue removal from water. After 40 min of treatment of the aqueous solution containing 10 mg/L of MB at room temperature, the tested SG, SG-ES and SG-SI materials were found to have 86%, 80% and 57% dye adsorption efficiency, respectively. Taking into consideration not only the adsorption activity of the studied material but their availability, cost and concepts of cleaner production and waste minimization, the developed silica gel with eggshell can be considered as a good, cost-effective alternative to commercially available activated-carbon-based adsorbents. Different kinetic and isotherm models were fitted to the experimental results. A pseudo-second-kinetics-order model revealed high correlation fitting, while the Freundlich model was found to appropriately describe the adsorption isotherm. The thermal stability during the possible regeneration process of the SG-ES adsorbent mixture and its interaction mechanism with cationic dye was discussed.

Application of Walnut Shell Biowaste as an Inexpensive Adsorbent for Methylene Blue Dye: Isotherms, Kinetics, Thermodynamics, and Modeling. SEPARATIONS 2023.

Abstract
This research aimed to assess the adsorption properties of raw walnut shell powder (WNSp) for the elimination of methylene blue (MB) from an aqueous medium. The initial MB concentration (2–50 mg/L), the mass of the biomaterial (0.1–1 g/L), the contact time (10–120 min), the medium’s pH (2–12), and the temperature (25–55 °C) were optimized as experimental conditions. A maximum adsorption capacity of 19.99 mg/g was obtained at an MB concentration of 50 mg/L, a medium pH of 6.93 and a temperature of 25 °C, using 0.2 g/L of WNSp. These conditions showed that the MB dye elimination process occurred spontaneously. Different analytical approaches were used to characterize the WNSp biomaterial, including functional groups involved in MB adsorption, the surface characteristics and morphological features of the WNSp before and after MB uptake, and identification of WNSp based on their diffraction pattern. The experimental isotherm data were analyzed by the Langmuir and Freundlich models for the adsorption of MB dye. The corresponding values of parameter RL of Langmuir were between 0.51 and 0.172, which confirmed the WNSp’s favorable MB dye adsorption. The experimental kinetic data were examined, and the pseudo-second-order model was shown to be more suitable for describing the adsorption process, with an excellent determination coefficient (R2 = 0.999). The exchanged standard enthalpy (H° = −22.456 KJ.mol−1) was calculated using the van ‘t Hoff equation, and it was proven that the adsorption process was exothermic. The spontaneous nature and feasibility of the MB dye adsorption process on WNSp were validated by negative standard enthalpy values (G°) ranging from −2.580 to −0.469 at different temperatures. It was established that WNSp may be employed as a novel, effective, low-cost adsorbent for the elimination of methylene blue in aqueous solutions.

Abstract
In the present study, magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4NPs) synthesized using Thunbergia grandiflora leaf extract as a reducing agent were doped with hydroxyapatite sourced from waste bivalve clamshells to produce hydroxyapatite/magnetite nanocomposite (HA/Fe3O4NPs). The magnetic nanocomposite was examined using several characterization techniques. The results of XRD and FESEM, analysis showed HA/Fe3O4NPs have a crystalline phase and irregular spherical particles respectively. EDAX and FTIR confirmed the presence of specific elements and functional groups of both iron oxide and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles respectively. The surface area and superparamagnetic property of the composite were determined by BET and VSM analysis. Central Composite Design (CCD) was used to optimize the adsorption process to remove of AB113 from aqueous solutions. The optimal adsorption efficiency was found out to be 94.38% at pH 8, AB113 dye concentration 54 ppm, HA/Fe3O4NPs dose 84 mg, and an agitation speed of 174 rpm. The monolayer Langmuir isotherm was the best model with a sorption capacity of 109.98 mg/g which was higher than the reported values. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model displayed a good fit with an R2 = 0.99. Thermodynamic parameters were assessed which confirmed the exothermic adsorption process. Therefore, the synthesized magnetic nanocomposite can be employed as a novel nanoadsorbent for the removal of anionic dyes from waste effluents.

Abstract
This work investigates the possibility of using scales of sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax as a low-cost material for the adsorptive removal of methylene blue (MB) cationic dye in aqueous solutions. The physical-chemical characterizations of fish scales in natura (FS-in natura) revealed through thermogravimetry that they are composed of inorganic (hydroxyapatite) and organic (collagen) phases in relatively similar amounts. Spectroscopy analyses show that the interactions of MB with FS-in natura occur mainly in the organic phase layer of the adsorbent. The effects of initial MB concentration (5.0 × 10-4 and 5.0 × 10-3 mol L-1) and temperature (25-55 °C) on the adsorption efficiency of FS-in natura were evaluated. FS-in natura at MB concentration (5.0 × 10-3 and 5.0 × 10-4 mol L-1) exhibited the maximum adsorption capacities of 2.2 × 10-3 mol g-1 at 25 °C and 2.8 × 10-5 mol g-1 at 55 °C, respectively. The pseudo-second-order model represented the adsorption kinetics well, and the equilibrium isotherm data were better correlated using the Langmuir equation. The newly developed neural model demonstrated a high predictive capacity with an R-value greater than 0.99 and reduced values for mean squared error, root mean squared error, and mean absolute error equal to 0.003, 0.055, and 0.0348, respectively. The genetic algorithm was used to optimize the experimental conditions of the process. In conclusion, the sea bass scales have promising prospects as a low-cost alternative material for removing cationic dyes from aqueous solutions.

Azo dyes are typical toxic and refractory organic pollutants widely used in the textile industry. Bio-electrochemical systems (BESs) have great potential for the treatment of azo dyes with the help of microorganisms as biocatalysts and have advanced significantly in recent years. However, the latest and significant advancement and achievements of BESs treating azo dyes have not been reviewed since 8 years ago. This review thus focuses on the recent investigations of BESs treating azo dyes from the year of 2013-2020 in order to broaden the knowledge and deepen the understanding in this field. In this review, azo dyes degradation mechanisms of BESs are first elaborated, followed by the introduction of BES configurations with the emphasis on the novelties. The azo dye degradation performance of BESs is then presented to demonstrate their effectiveness in azo dye removal. Effects of various operating parameters on the overall performance of BESs are comprehensively elucidated, including electrode materials, external resistances and applied potentials, initial concentrations of azo dyes, and co-substrates. Predominant microorganisms responsible for degradation of azo dyes in BESs are highlighted in details. Furthermore, the combination of BESs with other processes to further improve the azo dye removal are discussed. Finally, an outlook on the future research directions and challenges is provided from the viewpoint of realistic applications of the technology.

Abstract
Azo dyes are important to various industries such as textile industries. However, these dyes are known to comprise toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic representatives. Several approaches have already been employed to mitigate the problem such as the use of enzymes. Azoreductases have been well-studied in its capability to reduce azo dyes. AzoRo from Rhodococcus opacus 1CP has been found to be accepting only methyl red as a substrate, surmising that the enzyme may have a narrow active site. To determine the active site configuration of AzoRo at atomic level and identify the key residues involved in substrate binding and enzyme specificity, we have determined the crystal structure of holo-AzoRo and employed a rational design approach to generate AzoRo variants. The results reported here show that AzoRo has a different configuration of the active site when compared with other bacterial NAD(P)H azoreductases, having other key residues playing a role in the substrate binding and restricting the enzyme activity towards different azo dyes. Moreover, it was observed that AzoRo has only about 50% coupling yield to methyl red and p-benzoquinone - giving rise to the possibility that NADH oxidation still occurs even during catalysis. Results also showed that AzoRo is more active and more efficient towards quinones (about four times higher than methyl red).

Abstract
The main objective of this study is to optimize a new composite for the depollution of contaminated water. The sodium hydroxide-modified avocado shells (NaOH-AS) were firstly prepared, characterized by field-emission-scanning-electron-microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and applied for efficient removal of crystal violet dye (CV) in wastewater. In addition, the adsorption in a batch system of CV dye on the NaOH-AS material was studied. Therefore, we accomplished a parametric study of the adsorption by studying the effect of several important parameters on the decolorizing power of the used material, namely, initial pH, contact time, initial CV dye concentration, temperature, and the ionic strength effect on the CV dye adsorption process were systematically assessed. The highest adsorption efficiency of CV dye (>96.9%) by NaOH-AS was obtained at pH >8. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model gave the best description of the adsorption kinetic of CV dye on the AS and NaOH-AS adsorbents. In addition, the mass transfer of CV dye molecules from the solution to the adsorbent surface occurred in three sequential stages (boundary layer diffusion, intraparticle diffusion and adsorption equilibrium). The adsorption isotherm data were best fitted with the Freundlich model. The adsorption capacity of AS increased from 135.88 to 179.80 mg g-1 after treatment by 1 M NaOH. The thermodynamic study showed that CV dye adsorption onto NaOH-AS was an exothermic and feasible process. The electrostatic interactions acted as the only forces governing the CV adsorption mechanism. The NaOH-AS demonstrated a satisfactory reusability. Therefore, we can state that the as-developed NaOH-AS material has a potential application prospect as an efficient adsorbent for CV dye from wastewaters.

Abstract
The syntheses and characterization of fish scale biochar magnetic composites (FSB@Fe3O4) and their applications in the removal of indigo carmine dye from effluents are described. Preparation of the fish scale biochar magnetic composites, FSB@400 °C-Fe3O4, FSB@600 °C-Fe3O4, and FSB@800 °C-Fe3O4, was done following the chemical co-precipitation method. The adsorbents were characterized using peak optical absorbance, functional groups, magnetic strength, surface morphology, particle size, elemental compositions, surface charge, surface area, thermal stability, and crystalline phase, using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis spec), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), transmission electron microscopy/scanning electron microscopy (TEM/SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), point of zero charge pH (pHpzc), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), and powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD) techniques, correspondingly. The potential of magnetic composites for the abstraction of indigo carmine dye from wastewater was determined as a function of the initial concentration of indigo carmine dye, contact time, dye solution pH, adsorbent dosage, and solution temperature. The results demonstrated that the quantity (q) of indigo carmine dye adsorbed onto magnetic composites improved with a rise in initial dye concentration, adsorbent load, and solution temperature. Conversely, lower quantities of adsorbed dye were recorded at higher pH levels. The data fitted a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The Langmuir isotherm gave the best fit (Langmuir>Freundlich>Redlich-Peterson>Toth>Hill>Sips>Temkin) suggesting a uniformly monolayer adsorption. Adsorption of environmental wastewater samples revealed that all the adsorbents can be used to effectively treat industrial wastewaters. The recycling data established that the adsorbents could be used for five consecutive cycles without significant loss of adsorption capacities.

Abstract
In this paper, the adsorptive performance of synthesized thiourea (TU) modified poly(acrylonitrile-co-acrylic acid) (TU-P(AN-co-AA)) polymeric adsorbent for capturing p-nitrophenol (PNP) from aqueous solution was investigated. TU-P(AN-co-AA) was synthesized via the redox polymerization method with acrylonitrile (AN) and acrylic acid (AA) as the monomers, then modified chemically with thiourea (TU). Characterization analysis with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), elemental microanalysis for CHNS, zeta potential measurement, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface analysis and thermal analyses were carried out to determine the morphology and physico-chemical properties of the synthesized polymer. The characterization results indicated successful surface modification of polymer with TU. The performance of TU-P(AN-co-AA) for the removal of PNP was investigated under various experimental parameters (adsorbent dosage, initial adsorbate concentration, contact time and temperature). The results demonstrated that the Freundlich isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model best described the equilibrium and kinetic data, respectively. Thermodynamic studies showed that the uptake of PNP by TU-P(AN-co-AA) was spontaneous and exothermic in nature. The results of the regeneration studies suggested that the TU-P(AN-co-AA) polymer is a reusable adsorbent with great potential for removing PNP from wastewater.

Abstract
The present study illustrates enhanced removal of methylene blue (MB) and malachite green (MG) from water using alkali-activated coconut fiber (ACF) as adsorbent. Alkali activation effectively reduces the lignocellulosic components present within coco-fiber which in turn reinforces the coco-fiber to become more water-stable. The material was characterized by FTIR, SEM-EDS, BET, XRD, and pHZPC. BET surface area was found to be 10.901 m2 g-1, whereas pHZPC of the material is 6.05. FESEM images reveal rod-like morphology. Batch experiments were optimized with respect to contact time (0-120 min), temperature (288-308 K), pH (3-10), dose (1-5 g) and input dye concentration (10-50 mg L-1). The maximum adsorption coefficient was found to be 133.11 and 110.74 mg g-1 for MB and MG respectively. Adsorptions are best described by pseudo-second-order kinetics (kMB = 1.712, R2 = 0.999; kMG = 1.399, R2 = 0.999) and Langmuir isotherm model (R2 = 0.999). Thermodynamic data suggests a spontaneous (ΔG, -14 kJ mol-1) and feasible process. Spent material could be regenerated by using 0.5 M HCl. Up to 50% retention of activities was seen after five cycles. It can be concluded that alkali-activated coconut fiber is an economic and sustainable choice for dye removal. Novelty statement: Spent coconut was converted into an effective biosorbent by simple alkali activation under ambient conditions to increase the hydrophobicity of the fibers by reducing the lignocellulosic components. Two cationic dyes; methylene blue and malachite green have been efficiently removed with adsorption capacities of 133.11 and 110.74 mg g-1. The operation is simple, economically viable, and partially fulfills the principles of green engineering. Comparing with contemporary adsorbents, this material offers higher adsorption capacities with multi-cycle reusability and enhanced water stability.

Abstract
In this study, the optimal conditions for the fabrication of polyethylenimine/polyvinyl chloride cross-linked fiber (PEI/PVC-CF) were determined by comparing the adsorption capacity of synthesized PEI/PVC-CFs for Reactive Yellow 2 (RY2). The PEI/PVC-CF prepared through the optimal conditions was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analyses. Several batch adsorption and desorption experiments were carried out to evaluate the sorption performance and reusability of PEI/PVC-CF for RY2. As a result, the adsorption of RY2 by PEI/PVC-CF was most effective at pH 2.0. A pseudo-second-order model fit better with the kinetics adsorption data. The adsorption isotherm process was described well by the Langmuir model, and the maximum dye uptake was predicted to be 820.6 mg/g at pH 2.0 and 25 °C. Thermodynamic analysis showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. In addition, 1.0 M NaHCO3 was an efficient eluent for the regeneration of RY2-loaded PEI/PVC-CF. Finally, the repeated adsorption–desorption experiments showed that the PEI/PVC-CF remained at high adsorption and desorption efficiencies for RY2, even in 17 cycles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of agricultural waste as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of hazardous methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution was investigated. In this research, the potentiality of using black nano olive stones (black NOS) and green nano olive stones (green NOS) for MB adsorption was conducted. METHODS Various remediation parameters such as initial MB concentration, pH, and temperature were investigated. Thermodynamic study was carried out to determine the homogeneity of the adsorbent and spontaneity of the adsorption process. Different physical and chemical characterizations were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area, pore radius and pore volume. RESULTS It was found that NOS exhibits an acidic nature, however the highest MB removal efficiency was recorded at pH 10; reaching up to 71%. The negative value of the heat of the adsorption process (∆H ° ) indicated the reaction followed an exothermic pathway while the negative value of Gibbs adsorption (∆G ° ) further suggested its spontaneous nature. The results indicated that the Freundlich model described well the adsorption process with 99.5% correlation coefficient for green NOS. FTIR was used to analyze functional groups on the adsorbents' surfaces that could play vital roles in the remediation process. SEM analysis revealed that the adsorbents comprised of abundant spherical deep cavities and porous nature. CONCLUSION The result obtained successfully demonstrated the potential of using black and green NOS as suitable adsorbents for the removal of MB from water.

Abstract
In the current work, neodymium oxide (Nd2O3) nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The major aim/investigation of this research was to fit/model and optimize the removal of Acid Blue 92 (AB92) dye from synthetic effluents (aqueous solutions) using the adsorption process based on neodymium oxide (Nd2O3) nanoparticles. To optimize the adsorption conditions, central composite design (CCD) based on response surface methodology (RSM) was applied. The effects of pH (3-9), adsorbent dosage (0.1-1 g/L), initial concentration of AB92 (100-300 mg/L), and contact time (10-100 min) on the adsorption process were investigated. Apart from equilibrium and kinetic experiments, thermodynamic evaluation of the adsorption process was also undertaken. The adsorption process was found to have the best fitting to Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. Also, the process was found to be spontaneous and favorable with increased temperature. The optimal conditions found were: pH = 3.15, AB92 concentration equal to 138.5 mg/L, dosage of nanoadsorbent equal to 0.83 g/L, and 50 min as contact time, which resulted in 90.70% AB92 removal. High values for the coefficient of determination, R2 (0.9596) and adjusted R2 (0.9220) indicated that the removal of AB92 dye using adsorption can be explained and modeled by RSM. The Fisher's F-value (25.4683) denotes that the developed model was significant for AB92 adsorption at a 95% confidence level.

Abstract
The highly efficient removal of tetracycline (TC) from an aqueous solution was accomplished by using the raw shrimp shell waste (SSW) as an environmentally friendly adsorbent. The SSW without any treatment removed TC more efficiently than the SSW after being treated with HCl and NaOH solutions. The SSW was characterized using nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscopy alongside energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, a thermogravimetric-derivative thermogravimetry analyzer, and a ζ-potential analyzer. The maximum adsorption capacity of 400 mg/L SSW was 229.98 mg/g for 36 h at 55 °C. Both the Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model well described the experimental data. According to the values of the Gibbs free energy and enthalpy changes, the TC adsorption by SSW proved to be spontaneous and endothermic. The TC adsorption process was controlled by intraparticle diffusion and liquid film diffusion.

Synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of a selective molecularly imprinted polymer for quantification of the textile dye acid violet 19 in real water samples. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 384:121374. [PMID: 31672437 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2019.121374] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2019] [Revised: 09/18/2019] [Accepted: 09/30/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was developed for the determination of acid violet 19 (AV19) dye. The MIP was synthesized by polymerization using 1-vinyl imidazole (functional monomer) and 2,2'-azobis(2-methylpropionitrile) as the radical initiator. The functional monomer was previously selected by computational simulations. The MIP adsorption data could be fitted using the Langmuir model obtained a Qm value of 6.93 mg g-1 and 2.84 mg g-1 for the corresponding non-imprinted polymer (NIP) and the process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics (k2 0.2416 mg g-1 min-1 MIP). The BET specific surface areas were 229.6 m2 g-1 and 28.6 m² g-1, to MIP and NIP, respectively. Analyses showed that the material provided excellent selectivity towards acid violet 19 (AV19) when compared to other analytes including Acid Violet 17 (AV17), Tartrazine (TZ), Acid Red 14 (AR14), Patent blue-VF (PBV), Sunset yellow FCF (SY) and Acid Red 1 (AR1). The calculated Kd value for the MIP was 0.116 L g-1 and the imprinting factor was 2.89. This alternative and effective material for the enrichment, extraction, and determination of acid violet 19 presents in complex real samples was applied using two different rivers water and industrial effluent, with excellent recoveries values ranging between 85% up to 99%.

Pal D, Maiti SK. An approach to counter sediment toxicity by immobilization of heavy metals using waste fish scale derived biosorbent. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2020; 187:109833.

Abstract
The utilization of fish scale-derived biosorbent for immobilization of cadmium and lead in polluted sediment was thoroughly investigated in this study. Fish scale (FS) biomass was chemically and physically treated. The FS biomass treated with acid (0.1 M HCl), alkali (0.1 M NaOH) and hydrothermally, showed minimum removal capacity. While, FS treated hydrothermally along with acid showed the maximum removal efficiency of metal ions. We used different dosages (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) of FS biosorbent in the sediment. Isotherm modelling showed that this biosorbent can hold 89.30 and 92.65 mg/g of Cd and Pb on its surface. This indicated that prepared FS biosorbent has enough potential to adsorb Cd and Pb ions on its surface from the sediment. Compared to the control, sediment treated with 20% FS showed the highest immobilization capacities for Pb (92.9%), and Cd (87.9%). The values of partition coefficient (Kd) increased by 83% for Pb and 78% for Cd, which specified that availability of free ions of Pb and Cd in the aquatic system was successfully decreased. The sediment treated with 20% FS biosorbent showed 70-80% immobilization of Cd and Pb from mobile and exchangeable fractions that ultimately decreased the bioavailability of metal ions to the biota. Inclusively, compared to control, sediment served with 20% FS biosorbent showed higher level of Pb and Cd ions in residual fraction near by 80%. The prepared FS biosorbent had shown its potential in immobilizing the Cd and Pb ions from sediment as a cheap and ecologically feasible method for amendment.

Abstract
Presence of heavy metal in industrial wastewater is hazardous to the surrounding environment. Biosorption of heavy metal is an effective technology for the treatment of industrial wastewater. This research work has been carried out on removal of chromium (III) metal ions by employing waste fish scales as bioadsorbent. A batch adsorption process was carried out with different adsorbent dosage, solution pH and contact time. The results show the highest 99.7518 % chromium (III) metal ions at bioadsorbent dosage 0.8 g, pH of the solution 5 and contact time 90 min, initial concentration 150 mg/l chromium ion. The adsorption isotherms data fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm model with R2 = 0.9998, qmax = 18.3486 mg/g, and RL = 0.00007325. As well as pseudo-first and second kinetics model was also analyzed for the description of adsorption and found to be well fitted (R2 = 1) for adsorption kinetics. The surface properties activated fish scales and chromium loaded fish scale were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and thermal analysis and agree with outcomes.

Abstract
The preparation and applications of Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fish scale biochars (FSB) as an adsorbent in the removal of indigo carmine dye (ICD) from aqueous solutions is described. The biochars were prepared through pyrolysis over a temperature range of 200 °C-800 °C and characterized for surface charge, functional groups, thermal stability, particle size and morphology, elemental composition, crystallinity, and surface area by using pHpzc, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscopy/scanning electron microscopy (TEM/SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) techniques, respectively. Batch experiments were carried out to determine the variation of adsorption process with initial dye concentration, contact time, initial solution pH, adsorbent load, temperature and adsorbent pyrolysis temperature on the removal of the dye. The percentage removal increased with increase in initial dye concentration and adsorbent dosage. A pH of 2 was the most appropriate for the adsorption experiments. The equilibrium data fitted pseudo-first-order kinetics and Freundlich models, while the thermodynamic parameters confirmed that the adsorption process was endothermic.

Abstract
Titan yellow (TY), a triazene azo dye, was removed from contaminated wastewater samples using a green adsorbent recycled from Aloe vera leaves (AV) waste. Two adsorbents were developed—air-dried Aloe vera (ADAV) and thermally treated Aloe vera (TTAV). Adsorption efficacy of both adsorbents was assessed in terms of percent removal (%R) of TY and adsorption capacity (qe). ADAV had a better performance compared to TTAV. Plackett–Burman design (PBD) was exploited to establish the experimental pattern of the study. Four variables were studied: pH, adsorbent dose (AD), dye concentration (DC), and stirring time (ST). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) at 95.0 confidence interval (CI), control, and quality charts helped establish regression model(s). Characterization of both adsorbents was performed using FT-IR/Raman spectroscopy together with TGA/dTGA and SEM/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analyses. Textural properties were determined using nitrogen adsorption isotherms at 77 K. Results showed that the surface areas of ADAV and TTAV300 were 3.940 and 7.076 m2/g, respectively. Raman analysis showed that the TTAV had clear D- and G-bands. Equilibrium studies revealed that data were well fitted to Freundlich isotherm with a maximum adsorption capacity of 55.25 mg/g using Langmuir equation, and the adsorption was physisorption. Adsorption followed a pseudo-second order that occurred in two steps—diffusion and then adsorption.

Abstract
Fish scales (FS), a byproduct of the fish processing industry, are often discarded carelessly. In this present study, FS were used as a promising bio-sorbent for the removal of anionic acid dyes (acid red 1 (AR1), acid blue 45 (AB45) and acid yellow 127 (AY127)) from the wastewaters of textile coloration. Here, physiochemical characterizations of the FS were investigated by SEM-EDS, TGA and FI-IR analyses, and dye absorption and removal efficiency were evaluated and optimized considering different process parameters such as concentration of initial dye solution, amount of FS used, contact time, FS size, process temperature, additives, stirring and vacuum. SEM images and EDS elemental analyses showed architectural variation and heterogeneous composition of FS at different places. TGA identified the 50% minerals, 33% organic matters and 17% moisture and volatile components. FI-IR evidenced considerable absorption of acid dyes. Process optimization revealed that additives and fine pulverized FS had significant positive and negative impact on the dye removal efficacy, respectively. Temperature and stirring improved dye removal efficiency, and dye absorption by FS was very fast at the beginning and became almost constant after an hour indicating saturation of absorption. The maximum dye absorptions in scales for AR1, AB45, and AY127 were noted as 1.8, 2.7 and 3.4 mg/g, respectively, and removal percentages were 63.5%, 89.3% and 93%. The effects of the process parameters were consistent across all three acid dyes used in this study. Two-way ANOVA model showed that dye type, process parameters and ‘dye type X process parameters’ interactions had significant effect on the dye removal efficiency.

Abstract
A distinctive process (BCE-MFC) was developed to explore the methyl orange (MO) degradation and simultaneous bioelectricity generation based on the functional collaboration of biofilm, electrolysis, constructed wetland, and microbial fuel cell. The biofilm-cathode electrode-microbial fuel cell (BCE-MFC) was capable of sustaining an excellent MO removal (100%) and bioelectricity production (0.63 V). BCE significantly enhanced MO biodegradability, thus resulting in a 56.3% improvement of COD removal in subsequent MFC. Bacillus was dominant in biofilm on cathode in BCE. In MFC, Proteobacteria phylum (64.84%) and Exiguobacterium genus (13.30%) were predominated in the anode region, probably basically responsible for electricity generation. Interestingly, relatively high content of Heliothrix sp. (9.94%) was found in the MFC designed here, which was likely to participate in electricity production as well. The proposed functional collaboration may be an effective strategy in refractory wastewater treatment and power production.

Abstract
As a natural adsorption material, graphene has become a hot research topic in water treatment due to its unique framework, large surface area, low cost, and simple preparation. Here, a series of composite material aerogels (GA/MIL-100(Fe)) consisting of Fe metal-organic frameworks (MIL-100 (Fe)) and graphene-based aerogel (GA) were prepared through a hydrothermal and step-by-step strategy and used for the adsorption of an azo dye in wastewater, scilicet acid orange 10 (AO10). The adsorption equilibrium of AO10 solutions with concentrations of 50 and 100 mg/L was reached within 45 min but the dye could not be fully removed. Besides, the synthesized composite material (GA/MIL-100(Fe)) was a good carrier for immobilized Pseudomonas putida cells due to its good biocompatibility and non-toxicity. A new, environmentally friendly adsorption and biodegradation process has been exploited here, which was to immobilize bacterial cells to the surface of GA/MIL-100(Fe) by a covalent bonding method to form a novel biocomposite material. The material could be used to completely remove AO10 dyes in 14 and 26 h from solutions with initial AO10 concentrations of 50 and 100 mg/L, respectively. This way of combining biological and physical adsorption has a higher processing efficiency and shows huge potential for the treatment of industrial wastewater.

Abstract
This review emphasizes the importance of costs in industrial-scale treatment of dye wastewater and provides a way to assess the cost-based feasibility of bio-adsorption technologies. Dye wastewater is one of the major contributors to environmental pollution. Bio-adsorption has attracted considerable attentions in dye wastewater treatment due to its technical feasibility, flexibility and operation simplicity. However, industrial-scale treatment of dye wastewater via bio-adsorption technologies remains stagnant, mainly due to high costs. So far, no review or research articles have systematically discussed the criteria for successful utilization of bio-adsorption technologies on a large scale. This review discusses the major factors affecting adsorption and desorption performance based on basic chemical and physical structures of bio-adsorbents available in literatures. A quantitative relationship has been summarized based on previous studies to assess the cost to utilize a bio-adsorption technology and serve as an access threshold for quality bio-adsorbents to be taken into real applications.

Abstract
Graphene oxide/chitosan aerogel (GOCA) was prepared by a facile ice-templating technique without using any cross-linking reagent for metanil yellow dye sequestration. The adsorption performance of GOCA was investigated by varying the adsorbent mass, shaking speed, initial pH, contact time, concentration and temperature. The combined effects of adsorption parameters and the optimum conditions for dye removal were determined by response surface methodology. GOCA exhibited large removal efficiencies (91.5-96.4%) over a wide pH range (3-8) and a high adsorption capacity of 430.99 mg/g at 8 mg adsorbent mass, 400 mg/L concentration, 35.19 min contact time and 175 rpm shaking speed. The adsorption equilibrium was best represented by the Langmuir model. GOCA could be easily separated after adsorption and regenerated for re-use in 5 adsorption-desorption cycles thereby maintaining 80% of its adsorption capability. The relatively high adsorption and regeneration capabilities of GOCA render it an attractive adsorbent for treatment of azo dye-polluted water.

Adsorptive decontamination of diclofenac by three-dimensional graphene-based adsorbent: Response surface methodology, adsorption equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2019; 168:241-253. [PMID: 30321737 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2018.09.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2018] [Revised: 09/20/2018] [Accepted: 09/24/2018] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
Pharmaceutical residues are emerging pollutants in the aquatic environment and their removal by conventional wastewater treatment methods has proven to be ineffective. This research aimed to develop a three-dimensional reduced graphene oxide aerogel (rGOA) for the removal of diclofenac in aqueous solution. The preparation of rGOA involved facile self-assembly of graphene oxide under a reductive environment of L-ascorbic acid. Characterisation of rGOA was performed by Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The developed rGOA had a measured density of 20.39 ± 5.28 mg/cm3, specific surface area of 132.19 m2/g, cumulative pore volume of 0.5388 cm3/g and point of zero charge of 6.3. A study on the simultaneous interactions of independent factors by response surface methodology suggested dosage and initial concentration as the dominant parameters influencing the adsorption of diclofenac. The highest diclofenac adsorption capacity (596.71 mg/g) was achieved at the optimum conditions of 0.25 g/L dosage, 325 mg/L initial concentration, 200 rpm shaking speed and 30 °C temperature. The adsorption equilibrium data were best fitted to the Freundlich model with correlation coefficient (R2) varying from 0.9500 to 0.9802. The adsorption kinetic data were best correlated to the pseudo-first-order model with R2 ranging from 0.8467 to 0.9621. Thermodynamic analysis showed that the process was spontaneous (∆G = - 7.19 to - 0.48 kJ/mol) and exothermic (∆H = - 12.82 to - 2.17 kJ/mol). This research concluded that rGOA is a very promising adsorbent for the remediation of water polluted by diclofenac.

Abstract
Abstract
A novel effi cient adsorbent, alkali-pretreated Paeonia ostii seed coats (AP-PSC), was investigated for the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye from solution. Orthogonal array design was applied to optimize the process parameters viz. alkali concentration, liquid-solid ratio (LSR) and pretreatment time. The results revealed that the optimal pretreatment conditions were at 0.8% (w/w) NaOH with LSR of 0.35 L g-1 treating for 50 min. Equilibrium and kinetic studies indicated that Langmuir isotherm and Pseudo-second-order models described the experimental data well. The maximum adsorption capability was of 368.2 mg g-1 for MB at 25oC. Thermodynamic parameters suggested that the AP-PSC adsorption process was physical, endothermic and spontaneous. Furthermore, the adsorption process was infl uenced by several interactive mechanisms, including ion-exchange, as well as Van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds that occur concomitantly. It was concluded that AP-PSC may be potential as an effi cient adsorbent to remove MB from solution.

Abstract
The rampant industrialization and unchecked growth of modern textile production facilities coupled with the lack of proper treatment facilities have proliferated the discharge of effluents enriched with toxic, baleful, and carcinogenic pollutants including dyes, heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, odorants, and other hazardous materials. Therefore, the development of cost-effective and efficient control measures against such pollution is imperative to safeguard ecosystems and natural resources. In this regard, recent advances in biotechnology and microbiology have propelled bioremediation as a prospective alternative to traditional treatment methods. This review was organized to address bioremediation as a practical option for the treatment of dyes by evaluating its performance and typical attributes. It further highlights the current hurdles and future prospects for the abatement of dyes via biotechnology-based remediation techniques.
