Abstract
Amongst the various water pollutants, heavy metal ions require special attention because of their toxic nature and effects on humans and the environment. Preserving natural resources will have positive impacts on living conditions by reducing diseases and water treatment by nanotechnology is effective in solving this problem owing to the properties of nanomaterials. In this study, a goethite nanoparticle was prepared by hydrothermal method, while ZnO/goethite nanocomposite by co-precipitation was developed. The nanoparticles were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Transform Electron Microscopy (TEM), Thermogravimetric Differential Thermal Analysis (TGA-DTA), Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), and Breunner-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area analysis. The adsorption of Cd(II)-Pb(II) and Cd(II)-Pb(II)-Ni(II) ions systems on ZnO/goethite nanocomposite was investigated in a batch mode. The findings of the study showed that nanoparticles ZnO/goethite composite were mixed of spherical and rod-like shapes. The BET results revealed average particle sizes of 41.11 nm for nanoparticles for ZnO/goethite while TGA/DTA confirmed the stability of the adsorbents. The optimum adsorption capacities of the nanocomposite for Pb(II), Cd(II), and Ni(II) ions from the Pb-Cd-Ni ternary system were 415.5, 195.3, and 87.13 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption isotherm data fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm model. The study concluded that the nanoparticle adsorbents are efficient for the remediation of toxic pollutants and are, therefore, recommended for wastewater treatment.

Ilango AK, Liang Y. Surface modifications of biopolymers for removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances from water: Current research and perspectives. WATER RESEARCH 2024; 249:120927. [PMID: 38042065 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2023.120927] [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: 05/08/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/04/2023]
Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are highly recalcitrant organic contaminants that have attracted ever-increasing attention from the general public, government agencies and scientific communities. To remove PFAS from water, especially the enormous volume of drinking water, stormwater, and groundwater, sorption is the most practical approach. Success of this approach demands green, renewable, and sustainable materials for capturing PFAS at ng/L or µg/L levels. To meet this demand, this manuscript critically reviewed sorbents developed from biopolymers, such as chitosan (CTN), alginate (ALG), and cellulose (CEL) covering the period from 2008 to 2023. The use of different cross-linkers for the surface modifications of biopolymers were described. The underlying removal mechanism of biosorbents for PFAS adsorption from molecular perspectives was discussed. Besides reviewing and comparing the performance of different bio-based sorbents with respect to environmental factors like pH, and sorption kinetics and capacity, strategies for modifying biosorbents for better performance were proposed. Additionally, approaches for regeneration and reuse of the biosorbents were discussed. This was followed by further discussion of challenges facing the development of biosorbents for PFAS removal.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HAP) is an easily synthesizable, low-cost mineral that has been recognized as a potential material for fluoride removal. Some of the synthesis methods of HAP are quite straightforward and cost-effective, while some require sophisticated synthesis techniques under advanced laboratory conditions. This review assesses the physicochemical characteristics of HAP and HAP-based composites produced via various techniques, their recent development in defluoridation and most importantly, the fluoride removal performances. For the first time, fluoride removal performances of HAP and HAP composites are compared based on partition coefficient (KD) instead of maximum adsorption capacity (Qmax), which is significantly influenced by initial loading concentrations. Novel HAP tailored composites exhibit comparatively high KD values indicating the excellent capability of fluoride removal along with specific surface areas above 120 m2/g. HAP doped with aluminium complexes, HAP doped ceramic beads, HAP-pectin nanocomposite and HAP-stilbite nanocomposite, HAP decorated nanotubes, nanowires and nanosheets demonstrated high Qmax and KD. The secret of HAP is not the excellent fluoride removal performances but best removal at neutral and near-neutral pH, which most of the defluoridation materials are incapable of, making them ideal adsorbents for drinking water treatment. Multiple mechanisms including physical surface adsorption, ion-exchange, and electrostatic interactions are the main mechanisms involved in defluoridation. Further research work must be focused on upscaling HAP-based composites for defluoridation on a commercial scale.

Abstract
Nano hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2, HAp) has aroused widespread attention as a green and environmentally friendly adsorbent due to its outstanding ability in removing heavy metal ions, radio nuclides, organic pollutants and fluoride ions for wastewater treatment. The hexagonal crystal structure of HAp supports the adsorption mechanisms including ionic exchange reaction, surface complexation, the co-precipitation of new partially soluble phases and physical adsorption such as electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding. However, nano HAp has some drawbacks such as agglomeration and a significant pressure drop during filtration when used in powder form. Therefore, instead of using nano HAp alone, researchers have worked on modificationsand composites of nano HAp to overcome these issues and enhance the adsorption capacity. The modification of cationic doping and organic molecule grafting for nano HAp can promote the immobilization of ions and then increase adsorption capacity. Developing nano HAp composite with biopolymers such as gelatin, chitosan and chitin has proven to obtain a synergetic effect for improving the adsorption capacity of composites, in which nano HAp fixed and dispersed in polymers can playmuch more of a role for adsorption. This review summarizes the adsorption properties and adsorbent applications of nano HAp as well as the methods to enhance the adsorption capacity of nano HAp.

Abstract
The addition of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) and collagen (Col) to the alginate (Alg) microcapsule hydrogel reduced swelling and degradation ratios while the compressive strength increased compared to Alg, Alg-Col, and Alg-nHA groups. MTT assay and Calcein-AM staining revealed an enhanced MG-63 osteoblasts viability in the Alg-nHA-Col hydrogel compared to the other groups. SEM showed the attachment of MG-63 osteoblasts inside Alg-Col hydrogels. Non-significant differences were found in antioxidant capacity of cells inside the Alg-nHA-Col hydrogel compared to the Alg group. Hematoxylin-Eosin staining showed the distribution of MG-63 osteoblasts inside microspheres. Calcium deposits, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity with the increase of intracellular calcium were found in Alg-nHA-Col group. Western blotting showed that levels of osteocalcin, ColA2, Sox-9, and ColA1 also significantly increased compared to the Alg, Alg-Col, Alg-nHA groups. The present study demonstrated that the addition of mineral nHA and protein (Col) into the Alg improves osteogenic potential and provides a 3D platform for modular bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Advanced wastewater treatment processes are required to implement wastewater reuse in agriculture or industry, the efficient removal of targeted priority and emerging organic & inorganic pollutants being compulsory (due to their eco-toxicological and human health effects, bio-accumulative, and degradation characteristics). Various processes such as membrane separations, adsorption, advanced oxidation, filtration, disinfection may be used in combination with one or more conventional treatment stages, but technical and environmental criteria are important to assess their application. Natural and synthetic polyelectrolytes combined with some inorganic materials or other organic or inorganic polymers create new materials (composites) that are currently used in sorption of toxic pollutants. The recent developments on the synthesis and characterization of composites based on polyelectrolytes, divided according to their macroscopic shape-beads, core-shell, gels, nanofibers, membranes-are discussed, and a correlation of their actual structure and properties with the adsorption mechanisms and removal efficiencies of various pollutants in aqueous media (priority and emerging pollutants or other model pollutants) are presented.

Abstract
The growing demand for water purification provided the initial momentum to produce lanthanide-incorporated nano-hydroxyapatite (HAP) such as HAP·CeO2, HAP·CeO2·La(OH)3 (2:1), and HAP·CeO2·La(OH)3 (3:2). These materials open avenues to remove fluoride and lead ions from contaminated water bodies effectively. Composites of HAP containing CeO2 and La(OH)3 were prepared using in situ wet precipitation of HAP, followed by the addition of Ce(SO4)2 and La(NO3)3 into the same reaction mixture. The resultant solids were tested for the removal of fluoride and lead ions from contaminated water. It was found that the composite HAP·CeO2 shows fluoride and lead ion removal capacities of 185 and 416 mg/g, respectively. The fluoride removal capacity of the composite was improved when La(OH)3 was incorporated and it was observed that the composite HAP·CeO2·La(OH)3 (3:2) has the highest recorded fluoride removal capacity of 625 mg/g. The materials were characterized using scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX) spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry, X-ray powder diffractometry (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis. Analysis of results showed that Ce and La are incorporated in the HAP matrix. Results of kinetic and leaching analyses indicated a chemisorptive behavior during fluoride and lead ion adsorption by the composites; meanwhile, the thermodynamic profile shows a high degree of feasibility for fluoride and lead adsorption.

Abstract
In this study, hydroxyapatite (HAP) nanocomposites were prepared with chitosan (HAP-CTS), carboxymethyl cellulose (HAP-CMC), alginate (HAP-ALG), and gelatin (HAP-GEL) using a simple wet chemical in situ precipitation method. The synthesized materials were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. This revealed the successful synthesis of composites with varied morphologies. The adsorption abilities of the materials toward Pb(II), Cd(II), F-, and As(V) were explored, and HAP-CTS was found to have versatile adsorption properties for all of the ions, across a wide range of concentrations and pH values, and in the presence of common ions found in groundwater. Additionally, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed the affinity of HAP-CTS toward multi-ion mixture containing all four ions. HAP-CTS was hence engineered into a more user-friendly form, which can be used to form filters through its combination with cotton and granular activated carbon. A gravity filtration study indicates that the powder form of HAP-CTS is the best sorbent, with the highest breakthrough capacity of 3000, 3000, 2600, and 2000 mL/g for Pb(II), Cd(II), As(V), and F-, respectively. Hence, we propose that HAP-CTS could be a versatile sorbent material for use in water purification.

In the context of this interdisciplinary era, we isolated and identified alkaline protease producer Bacillus aryabhattai P1 by polyphasic approach and then followed one variable at a time approach to optimize protease production from P1. The modified components of fermentation medium (g/L) were wheat bran 10, soybean flour 10, yeast extract 5, NaCl 10, KH2PO4 1, K2HPO4 1 and MgSO4·7H2O 0.2 (pH 9). The optimum alkaline protease production from P1 was recorded 75 ± 3 U/mg at 35 °C and pH 9 after 96 h of fermentation period. Molecular weight of partially purified P1 alkaline protease was 26 KDa as revealed by SDS-PAGE. Calcium based nanoceramic material was prepared by wet chemical precipitation method and doped in native P1 protease for catalytic activity enhancement. Catalytic activity of modified P1 protease was attained by nanoactivator mediated modulation was more by 5.58 fold at pH 10 and 30 °C temperature. The nanoceramic material named as nanoactivator, with grain size of 40–60 nm was suitable to redesign the active site of P1 protease. Such types of modified proteases can be used in different nanobiotechnological applications.

Abstract
This study focused on the synthesis of a dicarboxylic acid (malic acid (A)), metal ion decorated bentonite clay (BC) modified with chitosan (CS) and the investigation of its defluoridation efficiency in fluoride contaminated groundwater. The synthesized adsorbent showed a fluoride removal capacity of 9.87 mg g−1. Batch adsorption studies were conducted to establish the effect of various parameters such as contact time, pH, initial concentration, and competitor ions. The adsorption isotherms of Freundlich, Dubinin–Radushkevich, and Langmuir were studied and the Freundlich isotherm fitted the data well. Kinetic studies showed that the adsorption process follows pseudo second order kinetics. Thermodynamic studies revealed that the fluoride adsorption process is spontaneous and endothermic. Reuse and regeneration studies were executed for effective application of the nanocomposite. The synthesized adsorbent also has potential for real water treatment applications. The adsorbent CeBC-A@CS nanocomposite has the maximum fluoride adsorption capacity.![]()

Abstract
In this study, a laminated nanocomposite of Y-Zr-Al with significantly high surface area of 256.6 m2/g was successfully prepared, and was used to investigate the defluoridation performance of sorbent based on Yttrium. The composite showed high fluoride sorption performance, especially at low F- concentration conditions. SEM, BET, Elemental Mapping and XPS were used to characterize physicochemical properties of the composite in detail. Several influence factors including pH, presence of coexisting anions and contacting time were detailly investigated. The sorption course was studied by equilibrium sorption isotherm and sorption kinetics. Based on experimental results, a mechanism for fluoride sorption onto Y-Zr-Al composite was proposed, which revealed that there were three main sorption models, including mesoporous diffusion sorption, electronic interaction sorption and ion exchange, in the sorption course. The composite was considered to be highly potential in treating fluoride polluted waste water due to its high efficiency, high anti-interference ability and easy operation, and the discovery of fluoride highly attractive rare earth element was important to further understand and develop defluoridation sorbents based on rare earth.

Abstract
A novel hydroxyapatite montmorillonite (HAP-MMT) nanocomposite system was synthesized using a simple wet chemical in situ precipitation method. Neat nano hydroxyapatite (HAP) was also synthesized for comparison. The characterization of the materials was carried out using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) isotherms to study the functional groups, morphology, crystallinity and the surface area respectively. Batch adsorption studies and kinetic studies on fluoride adsorption were conducted for the HAP-MMT system and for neat HAP. The effect of parameters such as contact time, pH, initial concentration, temperature, and thermodynamic parameters and the effect of coexisting ions on fluoride adsorption by HAP-MMT were studied. Results of the isotherm experiments were fitted to four adsorption isotherm models namely Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin Radushkevich. Fluoride adsorption over HAP-MMT fitted to the Freundlich adsorption isotherm model and showed more than two-fold improved adsorption capacity (16.7 mg g−1) compared to neat HAP. The best-fitting kinetic model for both adsorbents was found to be pseudo second order. Calculated thermodynamic parameters indicated that the fluoride adsorption by HAP-MMT is more favorable compared to that on HAP within the temperature range of 27 °C–60 °C. Improved fluoride adsorption by HAP-MMT is attributed to the exfoliated nature of HAP-MMT. Gravity filtration studies carried out using a 1.5 ppm fluoride solution, which is closer to the ground water fluoride concentrations of Chronic Kidney Disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) affected areas in Sri Lanka, resulted in a 1600 ml g−1 break through volume indicating the potential of HAP-MMT to be used in real applications. A novel hydroxyapatite montmorillonite (HAP-MMT) nanocomposite was synthesized using a simple wet chemical in situ precipitation method. This nanocomposite showed improved adsorption properties towards fluoride ions in water.![]()

Abstract
Abstract
Fluorosis is a major scourge in many countries caused by prolonged consumption of drinking water with high fluoride content found in groundwater resources. Hydroxyapatite (Hap) and its composite forms are excellent biomaterials that recently gained attention as efficient adsorbents, owing to its physical and chemical nature as it can substitute both cationic and anionic complexes present in an aqueous solution in its atomic arrangement. Its biological nature, biocompatibility and biodegradability along with its chemical characteristics such as crystallinity, stability, ion adsorption capability and highly specific catalytic activity make it suitable for a variety of applications especially in water treatment for fluoride removal. This review describes various techniques for synthesis of a wide variety of biogenic, synthetic, composite and modified forms of Hap for application in water defluoridation. Hap derived from natural sources or synthesized using conventional methods, hydrothermal, sol-gel or advanced sonication-cum-precipitation technique varied in terms of its crystallinity, structure, size, etc., which affect the fluoride removal capacity. The advantage and disadvantages of various synthesis methods, process parameters and product characteristics have been compiled, which may help to identify a suitable synthesis method for a desired Hap product for potential application and future perspectives in water treatment.

Abstract
Environmental concern associated with the side effects of high fluoride content in ground water and surface water has prompted the researchers to look for an efficient, convenient and easy method. Considering the potential of a good adsorbent, present study reports the synthesis of a composite by impregnating zirconium on powdered activated carbon (AC) using ultrasound as the tool for synthesis and applying it for fluoride adsorption from water. The nature of the composite was determined through characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive Xray (EDX), Xray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption analysis (BET) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. The pHpzc (point of zero charge) of the adsorbent was found to be 5.03; with the optimum pH obtained at 4 for adsorption of strong electronegative fluoride ions. The initial fluoride concentration was varied from 2.5 up to 20 mg.L-1 and the maximum adsorption capacity of 5 mg.g-1 was obtained. A maximum fluoride removal of 94.4% was obtained for an initial concentration of 2.5 mg.L-1 within an equilibrium time of 180 min. The adsorption isotherm followed the Langmuir isotherm model indicating a monolayer adsorption process and the adsorption kinetics followed pseudo second order model. The effects of various coexisting ions (HCO3-, NO3-, SO42-, Cl-) commonly present in the water were found to have negligible impact on the process performance. Conducting the adsorption-desorption studies for five consecutive cycles for an initial fluoride concentration of 10 mg.L-1, the removal efficiency reduced from 86.2 to 32.6%. The ultrasonic method provided an easy route to synthesize the composite in less time and significantly reduced energy consumption by more than 96% compared to the conventional method.

Abstract
The state-of-the-art on calcium orthophosphate (CaPO4)-containing biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials suitable for biomedical applications is presented. Since these types of biomaterials offer many significant and exciting possibilities for hard tissue regeneration, this subject belongs to a rapidly expanding area of biomedical research. Through the successful combinations of the desired properties of matrix materials with those of fillers (in such systems, CaPO4 might play either role), innovative bone graft biomaterials can be designed. Various types of CaPO4-based biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials those are either already in use or being investigated for biomedical applications are extensively discussed. Many different formulations in terms of the material constituents, fabrication technologies, structural and bioactive properties, as well as both in vitro and in vivo characteristics have been already proposed. Among the others, the nano-structurally controlled biocomposites, those containing nanodimensional compounds, biomimetically fabricated formulations with collagen, chitin and/or gelatin, as well as various functionally graded structures seem to be the most promising candidates for clinical applications. The specific advantages of using CaPO4-based biocomposites and hybrid biomaterials in the selected applications are highlighted. As the way from a laboratory to a hospital is a long one and the prospective biomedical candidates have to meet many different necessities, the critical issues and scientific challenges that require further research and development are also examined.

Abstract
In this research study, a new magnetic biosorbent was developed by the fabrication of magnetic Fe3O4 particles on nano-hydroxyapatite(n-HAp)/alginate (Alg) composite (Fe3O4@n-HApAlg composite) for defluoridation in batch mode. The synthesized Fe3O4@n-HApAlg biocomposite possess an enhanced defluoridation capacity (DC) of 4050 mgF(-)/kg when compare to n-HApAlg composite, Fe3O4@n-HAp composite, n-HAp and Fe3O4 which possesses the DCs of 3870, 2469, 1296 and 1050 mgF(-)/kg respectively. The structural changes of the sorbent, before and after fluoride sorption were studied using FTIR, XRD and SEM with EDAX techniques. There are various physico-chemical parameters such as contact time, pH, co-existing anions, initial fluoride concentration and temperature were optimized for maximum fluoride removal. The equilibrium data was well modeled by Freundlich, Langmuir, Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) and Temkin isotherms. The present system follows Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm model. The thermodynamic parameters reveals that the feasibility, spontaneity and endothermic nature of fluoride sorption. The performance and efficiency of the adsorbent material was examined with water samples collected from fluoride endemic areas namely Reddiyarchatram and Ammapatti in Dindigul District of Tamil Nadu using standard protocols.
