[PMID: 38611944 PMCID: PMC11013838 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29071664] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Two types of cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) were isolated from cotton linter fibers and hardwood fibers through mechanical fibrillation methods. The dialdehyde cellulose nanofibrils (DACNFs) were prepared through the periodate oxidation method, and their morphological and structural properties were investigated. The characteristics of the DACNFs during the concentration process were also explored. The AFM analysis results showed that the mean diameters of wood fiber-based CNFs and cotton fiber-based CNFs were about 52.03 nm and 69.51 nm, respectively. However, the periodate oxidation treatment process obviously reduced the nanofibril size and destroyed the crystalline region of the nanofibrils. Due to the high crystallinity of cotton fibers, the cotton fiber-based DACNFs exhibited a lower aldehyde content and suspension stability compared to the wood fiber-based DACNFs. For the concentration process of the DACNF suspension, the bound water content of the concentrated cotton fiber-based DACNFs was lowered to 0.41 g/g, which indicated that the cotton fiber-based DACNFs could have good redispersibility. Both the wood fiber-based and cotton fiber-based DACNF films showed relatively good transmittance and mechanical strength. In addition, to the cotton fiber-based DACNF films had a very low swelling ratio, and the barrier water vapor and oxygen properties of the redispersed cotton fiber-based DACNF films decreased by very little. In sum, this study has demonstrated that cotton fibers could serve as an effective alternative to wood fibers for preparing CNFs, and that cotton fiber-based DACNFs have huge application prospects in the field of packaging film materials due to their stable properties during the concentration process.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 261:129687. [PMID: 38272414 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129687] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 01/27/2024]
Abstract
Airborne particulate matter is a pressing environmental and public health concern globally. This study aimed to develop sustainable filtration materials from cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) modified with graphene oxide (GO) to capture fine particulates from air effectively. CNFs were extracted from α-cellulose via mechanical grinding and modified with 0.5-1.5 wt% GO solution by ultrasonication to produce CNF-GO nanocomposites. These were freeze-dried into highly porous, lightweight aerogels for air filtration applications. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) confirmed GO incorporation through hydroxyl group interactions. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) revealed a porous 3D network with reduced porosity after GO addition due to pore blocking. X-ray diffraction analysis showed the cellulose I crystal structure was retained after modification. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) measurements indicated increased density but decreased surface area and pore volume with GO loading. The thermogravimetric analysis demonstrated improved thermal stability with GO incorporation due to oxidative reactions and a barrier effect. The particulate absorption efficiency markedly increased from 86.37 % to 99.98 % for CNFs modified with 1.5 wt% GO due to the high surface area, surface oxygen functionalities, and nanoplatelet morphology of GO. The nanofiber filters with 1.5 wt% GO exhibited a maximum absorption efficiency of 99.98 % and a quality factor of 0.0912 Pa-1. Although GO reduced biodegradability, substantial degradation occurred under soil conditions. Overall, the sustainable, high-efficiency CNF-GO air filters developed in this work demonstrate immense promise for controlling air pollution and protecting human health.

Preparation, characterization, and adsorption kinetics of graphene oxide/chitosan/carboxymethyl cellulose composites for the removal of environmentally relevant toxic metals. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 257:128357. [PMID: 38035970 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128357] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023]
Abstract
This study attempted to develop a low-cost and eco-friendly bio-based composite adsorbent that is highly efficient in capturing potential toxic metals. The bio-composite adsorbent was prepared using graphene oxide (GO), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and chitosan (CS); and characterized using FTIR, SEM-EDX and WAXD techniques. Metal-ion concentration in an aqueous solution was measured by ICP-OES. This article reveals that the adsorption of heavy metal ions varied according to the adsorbent quantity, initial metal concentration, pH, and interaction time. The metal ions' adsorption capacity (mg/g) was observed to increase when the interaction time and metal concentration increased. Conversely, metal ions adsorption was decreased with an increase in adsorbent dosages. The effect of pH on metal ions' adsorption was ion-specific. The substantial adsorption by GO/CMC/CS composite for Co2+, CrO42-, Mn2+ and Cd2+, had the respective values of 43.55, 77.70, 57.78, and 91.38 mg/g under acidic conditions. The metal ions experimental data were best fitted with pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetics, and Freundlich isotherm model (except Co2+). The separation factors (RL) value in the present investigation were found between 0 and 1, meaning that the metal ions adsorption onto GO/CS/CMC composite is favorable. The RL and sorption intensity (1/n) values fitted well to the adsorption isotherm.

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%.

Abstract
Chitosan modified AGQD (amine modified graphene oxide quantum dots) and then combined with H3PW12O40 to obtain CSx@AGQD-HPW12 via facile process and applied for CIP removal through pre-adsorption and photocatalytic processes. The application of chitosan could regulate the morphology and photoelectric properties effectively. CS0.5@AGQD-HPW12 was found to have the optimal CIP removal performance among all the products, the corresponding adsorption removal efficiency and pre-adsorption photocatalysis process were 72.1 % and 98.8 %, respectively. Results of toxicity assessment confirmed photocatalytic degradation process could mitigate the ecotoxicity of CIP effectively. The optimal TOC (total organic carbon) removal efficiency was about 52.1 %. Possible pathways for CIP degradation and reaction mechanism were proposed based on the results of intermediates analysis and trapping experiments. This demonstrated a novel approach to chitosan application and an eco-friendly way to remove CIP by adsorption-photocatalysis process.

Abstract
The increase in the surface and groundwater contamination due to global population growth, industrialization, proliferation of pathogens, emerging pollutants, heavy metals, and scarcity of drinking water represents a critical problem. Because of this problem, particular emphasis will be placed on wastewater recycling. Conventional wastewater treatment methods may be limited due to high investment costs or, in some cases, poor treatment efficiency. To address these issues, it is necessary to continuously evaluate novel technologies that complement and improve these traditional wastewater treatment processes. In this regard, technologies based on nanomaterials are also being studied. These technologies improve wastewater management and constitute one of the main focuses of nanotechnology. The following review describes wastewater's primary biological, organic, and inorganic contaminants. Subsequently, it focuses on the potential of different nanomaterials (metal oxides, carbon-based nanomaterials, cellulose-based nanomaterials), membrane, and nanobioremediation processes for wastewater treatment. The above is evident from the review of various publications. However, nanomaterials' cost, toxicity, and biodegradability need to be addressed before their commercial distribution and scale-up. The development of nanomaterials and nanoproducts must be sustainable and safe throughout the nanoproduct life cycle to meet the requirements of the circular economy.

Low-cost biosorption of Fe(II) and Fe(III) from single and binary solutions using Ulva lactuca-derived cellulose nanocrystals-graphene oxide composite film. Sci Rep 2023; 13:6422. [PMID: 37076571 PMCID: PMC10115868 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-33386-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 04/12/2023] [Indexed: 04/21/2023] Open
Abstract
The marine algal biomass of Ulva lactuca was utilized for the extraction of cellulose and the development of cellulose nanocrystals/graphene oxide film. Cellulose nanocrystals with 50-150 nm were produced by H2SO4 hydrolysis of the algal cellulose. The adsorption efficiency of the nanocomposite film for Fe(II) and Fe(III) ions was successfully evaluated using Box-Behnken design. The maximum removal for Fe(II) (64.15%) could be attained at pH 5.13, adsorbent dosage 7.93 g L-1 and Fe(II) concentration 15.39 mg L-1, while the biosorption of Fe(III) was 69.92% at pH 5.0, adsorbent dosage 2 g L-1, and Fe(III) concentration 15.0 mg L-1. However, in the binary system, the removal efficiency of Fe(II) was enhanced to 95.48% at Fe(II):Fe(III) ratio of 1:1, while the Fe(III) removal was increased to 79.17% at ratio 1:2. The pseudo-second-order kinetics exhibited better fitting to the experimental results of Fe(II) and Fe(III) adsorption in both single and binary systems. The intra-particle diffusion was prominent during the biosorption, but the effect of the external mass transfer was significant. The Langmuir, Freundlich, Langmuir-Freundlich, Temkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherms showed satisfactory fitting to the experimental data, but they differ in priority based on iron state and pH. The adsorption of Fe(II) in the presence of Fe(III) in a mixture was best represented by the extended Langmuir model, while the extended Langmuir-Freundlich model best fitted the adsorption of Fe(III). The FT-IR analysis indicated that physisorption through electrostatic interaction/complexation is the predominant mechanism for the adsorption of iron using the nanocomposite film.

Abstract
Graphene oxide is a two-dimensional carbon nanomaterial and has gained huge popularity over the last decade. Because, the graphene oxide can be dispersed in water easily and it is one of the most researched two-dimensional materials in the current time. The extraordinary properties shown by graphene oxide (GO) are due to its unique chemical structure; includes various hydrophilic functional groups containing oxygen such as carboxyl, hydroxyl, carbonyl and tiny sp2 carbon domains surrounded by sp3 domains. These groups are very peculiar for various applications as they allow covalent functionalisation with a plethora of compounds. Large surface area, intrinsic fluorescence, excellent surface functionality, amphiphilicity, improved conductivity, high adsorption capacity and superior biocompatibility are some of the chemical properties have drawn research from various fields. Graphene oxide has various interactions such as coordination, chelation, hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interaction, hydrophobic effects, π-π interaction, acid base interaction etc., with various metal ions. This review is focused on the removal of metals and metal ions due to their interactions mentioned above. Further, potential of composites of graphene oxide in the removal of metal and metal ions is also discussed. Further, the current challenges in this field at industrial-scale are also discussed.

Abstract
Incessant release of a large spectrum of agro-industrial pollutants into environmental matrices remains a serious concern due to their potential health risks to humans and aquatic animals. Existing remediation techniques are unable to remove these pollutants, necessitating the development of novel treatment approaches. Due to its unique structure, physicochemical properties, and broad application potential, graphene has attracted a lot of attention as a new type of two-dimensional nanostructure. Given its chemical stability, large surface area, electron mobility, superior thermal conductivity, and two-dimensional structure, tremendous research has been conducted on graphene and its derived composites for environmental remediation and pollution mitigation. Various methods for graphene functionalization have facilitated the development of different graphene derivatives such as graphene oxide (GO), functional reduced graphene oxide (frGO), and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) with novel attributes for multiple applications. This review provides a comprehensive read on the recent progress of multifunctional graphene-based nanocomposites and nanohybrids as a promising way of removing emerging contaminants from aqueous environments. First, a succinct overview of the fundamental structure, fabrication techniques, and features of graphene-based composites is presented. Following that, graphene and GO functionalization, i.e., covalent bonding, non-covalent, and elemental doping, are discussed. Finally, the environmental potentials of a plethora of graphene-based hybrid nanocomposites for the abatement of organic and inorganic contaminants are thoroughly covered.

Abstract
With the development of science and technology, photocatalytic technology is of great interest. Nanosized photocatalysts are easy to agglomerate in an aqueous solution, which is unfavorable for recycling. Therefore, hydrogel-based photocatalytic composites were born. Compared with other photocatalytic carriers, hydrogels have a three-dimensional network structure, high water absorption, and a controllable shape. Meanwhile, the high permeability of these composites is an effective way to promote photocatalysis technology by inhibiting nanoparticle photo corrosion, while significantly ensuring the catalytic activity of the photocatalysts. With the growing energy crisis and limited reserves of traditional energy sources such as oil, the attention of researchers was drawn to natural polymers. Like almost all abundant natural polymer compounds in the world, cellulose has the advantages of non-toxicity, degradability, and biocompatibility. It is used as a class of reproducible crude material for the preparation of hydrogel photocatalytic composites. The network structure and high hydroxyl active sites of cellulose-based hydrogels improve the adsorption performance of catalysts and avoid nanoparticle collisions, indirectly enhancing their photocatalytic performance. In this paper, we sum up the current research progress of cellulose-based hydrogels. After briefly discussing the properties and preparation methods of cellulose and its descendant hydrogels, we explore the effects of hydrogels on photocatalytic properties. Next, the cellulose-based hydrogel photocatalytic composites are classified according to the type of catalyst, and the research progress in different fields is reviewed. Finally, the challenges they will face are summarized, and the development trends are prospected.

Abstract
Due to the good biocompatibility and flexibility of cellulose and the excellent optical, electronic, as well as mechanical properties of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs), cellulose/CNM hybrid materials have been widely synthesized and used in energy storage, sensors, adsorption, biomedicine, and many other fields. In this review, we present recent advances (2016-current) in the design, structural design, functional tailoring and various applications of cellulose/CNM hybrid materials. For this aim, first the interactions between cellulose and CNMs for promoting the formation of cellulose/CNM materials are analyzed, and then the hybridization between cellulose with various CNMs for tailoring the structures and functions of hybrid materials is introduced. Further, abundant applications of cellulose/CNM hybrid materials in various fields are presented and discussed. This comprehensive review will be helpful for readers to understand the functional design and facile synthesis of cellulose-based nanocomposites, and to promote the high-performance utilization and sustainability of biomass materials in the future.

Abstract
Abstract
The performance of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) reinforced with natural fibers can be tailored through a suitable choice of the fibers nature or the type of surface treatment applied to them. The present work deals with the improvement of the interfacial properties of natural fibers, namely wood flour (WF) by the introduction of graphene oxide (GO), which may easily disperse on the WF surface to provide hybrid fibers (WF-GO). The latter were then used as reinforcement of a TPU matrix at different ratios of 1, 3 and 5 wt%. The different samples were characterized by FTIR and RAMAN spectroscopies, XRD, SEM and TGA to confirm the structure, morphology and the thermal stability of the prepared hybrid fibers as well as their composites (TPU/WF-GO). SEM micrographs revealed that the surface treatment applied to WF, the distribution of GO sheets on the fiber interface, and the dispersion of (WF-GO) on the polymer matrix were successfully carried out. The thermal stability of the TPU-base composites increased with the increase of WF-GO content from 325 °C for the pure TPU matrix to 343 °C for the composite reinforced by 5% of (WF-GO). In addition, the results confirmed that the incorporation of GO into WF led to a significant improvement in the mechanical properties of the TPU-based composites, with an improvement in strength from 10.9 MPa to 19 MPa.

Abstract
Asymmetric catalysis is the preferred method for the synthesis of pure chiral molecules in the fine chemical industry. Cellulose has long been sought as a support in enantioselective catalysis. Dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) is produced by the selective oxidation of cellulose and is used to bind 5,5′-diamino Binap by forming a Schiff base. Here, we report the synthesis of modified cellulose-supported Rh as a novel biomass-supported catalyst and the characterization of its morphology, composition, and thermal stability. DAC-BINAP-Rh was a very effective catalyst in the asymmetric hydrogenation of enamides and could be easily recycled. This work provides a novel supported catalyst that broadens the applications of cellulose in asymmetric catalysis.

Abstract
In the present study, the coked catalysts derived from catalytic reforming of the pyrolysis volatiles of polyethylene (PE), lignin (LG) and their mixture were developed as low-cost and environmentally-friendly carbon materials-containing composites to remove heavy metal ions from aqueous solution. The composites were thoroughly characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, TGA and FT-IR and then their adsorption capability towards Pb(ii) was investigated. It is found that curved cone-shape carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with abundant structural defects and O-containing surface functional groups, such as C–O, C

O and –OH, can be obtained from the catalytic reforming of the mixture of PE and LG. The CNT-containing catalyst composite presents a superior adsorption capability towards Pb(ii) when it is employed in Pb(ii) removal. Adsorption isotherm and adsorption kinetics studies show that the adsorption process can be well simulated by the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order model, demonstrating that the adsorption is subjected to a homogeneous and chemical process. The calculated maximum adsorption capacity is as high as 146.08 mg g−1, which is much higher than most of the adsorbents reported. Moreover, thermodynamic analysis reveals that the adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic. Accordingly, the used catalyst from the catalytic reforming can be developed as a low-cost and highly-efficient adsorbent. The coked catalysts derived from catalytic reforming of the pyrolysis volatiles of polyethylene, lignin and their mixture were developed as low-cost and high-efficient carbon materials-containing composites to remove heavy metal ions from water.![]()

Abstract
Nanocelluloses are promising bio-nano-materials for use as water treatment materials in environmental protection and remediation. Over the past decades, they have been integrated via novel nanoengineering approaches for water treatment processes. This review aims at giving an overview of nanocellulose requirements concerning emerging nanotechnologies of waster treatments and purification, i.e., adsorption, absorption, flocculation, photocatalytic degradation, disinfection, antifouling, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis. Firstly, the nanocellulose synthesis methods (mechanical, physical, chemical, and biological), unique properties (sizes, geometries, and surface chemistry) were presented and their use for capturing and removal of wastewater pollutants was explained. Secondly, different chemical modification approaches surface functionalization (with functional groups, polymers, and nanoparticles) for enhancing the surface chemistry of the nanocellulose for enabling the effective removal of specific pollutants (suspended particles, microorganisms, hazardous metals ions, organic dyes, drugs, pesticides fertilizers, and oils) were highlighted. Thirdly, new fabrication approaches (solution casting, thermal treatment, electrospinning, 3D printing) that integrated nanocelluloses (spherical nanoparticles, nanowhiskers, nanofibers) to produce water treatment materials (individual composite nanoparticles, hydrogels, aerogels, sponges, membranes, and nanopapers) were covered. Finally, the major challenges and future perspectives concerning the applications of nanocellulose based materials in water treatment and purification were highlighted.

Abstract
In this study, we incorporated 2,3-dialdehyde nanocrystalline cellulose (DANC) into chitosan as a reinforcing agent and manufactured biodegradable films with enhanced gas barrier properties. DANC generated via periodate oxidation of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) was blended at various concentrations with chitosan, and bionanocomposite films were prepared via casting and characterized systematically. The results showed that DANC developed Schiff based bond with chitosan that improved its properties significantly. The addition of DANC dramatically improved the gas barrier performance of the composite film, with water vapor permeability (WVP) value decreasing from 62.94 g·mm·m-2·atm-1·day-1 to 27.97 g·mm·m-2·atm-1·day-1 and oxygen permeability (OP) value decreasing from 0.14 cm3·mm·m-2·day-1·atm-1 to 0.026 cm3·mm·m-2·day-1·atm-1. Meanwhile, the maximum decomposition temperature (Tdmax) of the film increased from 286 °C to 354 °C, and the tensile strength of the film was increased from 23.60 MPa to 41.12 MPa when incorporating 25 wt.% of DANC. In addition, the chitosan/DANC (75/25, wt/wt) films exhibited superior thermal stability, gas barrier, and mechanical strength compared to the chitosan/CNC (75/25, wt/wt) film. These results confirm that the DANC and chitosan induced films with improved gas barrier, mechanical, and thermal properties for possible use in film packaging.

Abstract
Materials functionalization through multicomponent reactions (MCRs) has recently attracted great attention due to the generation of outstanding features in materials. Herein, an efficient novel heterogeneous catalytic system was designed and synthesized via the MCRs functionalization of the most abundant biopolymer in nature, cellulose. In this regard, cellulose was oxidized using periodate as an oxidant agent, and then the resulted carbonyl functional groups participated in the three-component Betti reaction. The ICP-OES analysis was revealed that the functionalization of cellulose via this three-component reaction effectively improved the complexing ability of functionalized cellulose with Cu(II). The synthesized biocatalyst was characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, XRD, SEM, EDS, ICP, and TGA techniques. The efficiency of the designed biocatalyst was investigated in the CH functionalization reaction of N-acylhydrazones to synthesize 1,3,4-oxadiazoles. This biocatalyst's outstanding advantages are high yields, non-hazardous catalyst, mild reaction conditions, operational simplicity, and reusability.

Abstract
Coal fly ash was decorated with a graphene oxide-tungsten oxide nanorods nanocomposite (CFA/GO/WO3NRs nanocomposite) via a hydrothermal method and applied for the remediation of lead (Pb2+ ions). The Pb2+ ion-loaded spent adsorbent (CFA/GO/WO3NRs + Pb2+ nanocomposite) was reused for the photodegradation of acetaminophen. CFA/GO/WO3NRs + Pb2+ nanocomposite displayed rapid removal of Pb2+ ions. Pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model described the adsorption data. The adsorption capacity of the CFA/GO/WO3NRs nanocomposite was 41.51 mg/g for the removal of Pb2+ ions. Additionally, the Pb2+ ion-loaded spent adsorbent significantly influenced the degradation of acetaminophen by photocatalysis where 93% degradation was observed. It is worthy to note the reuse application of Pb2+ ion-loaded spent adsorbent as a photocatalyst, which will significantly reduce the secondary waste obtained from conventional adsorption methods.

Abstract
A novel 3-D biopolymer-based adsorption-photocatalytic composite, polyaniline/dicarboxyl acid cellulose@graphene oxide was synthesized and was employed to remove the reactive brilliant red K-2G from aqueous solution. The addition of dicarboxyl acid cellulose could improve the morphology, structure, stability and dispersity of the nanocomposite, thus providing excellent adsorption and photocatalysis performance to the product. Batch of experiments were conducted in two scenarios: adsorption followed by photocatalysis process and simultaneous adsorption-photocatalysis process. For the first scenario, adsorption equilibrium can be reached within 25 min, the expected adsorption capacity was 447.0 mg·g-1; the subsequent photocatalysis process was carried out under light irradiation and the removal capacity could further improve to 729.0 mg·g-1 under equilibrium state (about 180 min). For the simultaneous adsorption-photocatalytic process, the removal capacity was about 558.1 mg·g-1 at about 25 min and the total removal capacity could reach to 733.3 mg·g-1 under equilibrium state. PANI-DCC@GO exhibited excellent reusability and had potential in the treatment of dyes polluted wastewater.

Abstract
In the present study, magnetic oil palm empty fruits bunch cellulose nanofiber (M-OPEFB-CNF) composite was isolated by sol-gel method using cellulose nanofiber (CNF) obtained from oil palm empty fruits bunch (OPEFB) and Fe3O4 as magnetite. Several analytical methods were utilized to characterize the mechanical, chemical, thermal, and morphological properties of the isolated CNF and M-OPEFB-CNF. Subsequently, the isolated M-OPEFB-CNF composite was utilized for the adsorption of Cr(VI) and Cu(II) from aqueous solution with varying parameters, such as pH, adsorbent doses, treatment time, and temperature. Results showed that the M-OPEFB-CNF as an effective bio-sorbent for the removal of Cu(II) and Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The adsorption isotherm modeling revealed that the Freundlich equation better describes the adsorption of Cu(II) and Cr(VI) on M-OPEFB-CNF composite. The kinetics studies revealed the pseudo-second-order kinetics model was a better-described kinetics model for the removal of Cu(II) and Cr(VI) using M-OPEFB-CNF composite as bio-sorbent. The findings of the present study showed that the M-OPEFB-CNF composite has the potential to be utilized as a bio-sorbent for heavy metals removal.

Abstract
Periodate oxidation of polysaccharides has transitioned from structural analysis into a modification method for engineered materials. This review summarizes the research on this topic. Fibers, fibrils, crystals, and molecules originating from forests that have been subjected to periodate oxidation can be crosslinked with other entities via the generated aldehyde functionality, that can also be oxidized or reduced to carboxyl or alcohol functionality or used as a starting point for further modification. Periodate-oxidized materials can be subjected to thermal transitions that differ from the native cellulose. Oxidation of polysaccharides originating from forests often features oxidation of structures rather than liberated molecules. This leads to changes in macro, micro, and supramolecular assemblies and consequently to alterations in physical properties. This review focuses on these aspects of the modulation of structural hierarchies due to periodate oxidation.

Abstract
The endless introduction of toxic heavy metals through industrialization has worsened the heavy metal pollution in the environment. Thus, the need for its effective removal has become more crucial than before. Studies on graphene-based nanomaterials and their use in removing heavy metals are gaining tremendous traction over the past decade. The properties of graphene oxide (GO), such as large surface areas, desired functional groups and excellent mechanical properties are advantageous. Nevertheless, due to its tendency to agglomerate and difficulty in phase separation after treatment, the functionalization of GO using various materials of different surface functional groups is an ongoing study. The surface modification of GO is done by using various materials to introduce heteroatoms, which have high affinity for heavy metals. This review summarizes the utilization of different surface functional groups, such as oxygen-containing, nitrogen-containing, and sulphur-containing functionalized graphene oxide composites in the adsorption of cationic and oxyanionic heavy metals. The toxicity of these heavy metals is also addressed. Furthermore, the interactions between adsorbents and heavy metals which are influenced by pH and surface functional groups, are also discussed in detail. This is followed by the review in adsorption isotherms and kinetics. Future research needs are also offered.

Abstract
Recently, graphene oxide(GO) has gained much attention for heavy metal removal due to its high surface area and lots of functional groups on the surface. However, GO itself in powder form is far away from practical adsorbents because it remains dispersed in liquid phase which causes difficulty in the separation from effluent. In this study, GO/carboxymethyl cellulose nanofibril (CMCNF) composite fiber(CF) is developed as an efficient and durable adsorbent. Cross-linked GO/CMCNF CF was continuously produced by employing Fe3+ ion as a coagulant during a typical wet-spinning process. Based on multiple interactions such as ionic bonding and electrostatic interactions between Fe3+ and carboxyl group on CMCNF, the CF exhibits enhanced mechanical property than pure GO fiber. GO/CMCNF-Fe3+ CF showed efficient lead (Pb2+) uptake with successful adsorbent recovery, which indicates durable and cost-competitive fiber type adsorbent for heavy metal ions.

Abstract
The presence of traces of heavy metals in wastewater causes adverse health effects on humans and the ecosystem. Adsorption is a low cost and eco-friendly method for the removal of low concentrations of heavy metals from wastewater streams. Over the past several years, graphene-based materials have been researched as exceptional adsorbents. In this review, the applications of graphene oxide (GO), reduce graphene oxide (rGO), and graphene-based nanocomposites (GNCs) for the removal of various metals are analyzed. Firstly, the common synthesis routes for GO, rGO, and GNCs are discussed. Secondly, the available literature on the adsorption of heavy metals including arsenic, lead, cadmium, nickel, mercury, chromium and copper using graphene-based materials are reviewed and analyzed. The adsorption isotherms, kinetics, capacity, and removal efficiency for each metal on different graphene materials, as well as the effects of the synthesis method and the adsorption process conditions on the recyclability of the graphene materials, are discussed. Finally, future perspectives and trends in the field are also highlighted.

Abstract
:
A variety of processes were reported for efficient removing of heavy metal from
wastewater, including but not limited to ion exchange, reverse osmosis, membrane filtration, flotation,
coagulation, chemical precipitation, solvent extraction, electrochemical treatments, evaporation,
oxidation, adsorption, and biosorption. Among the aforementioned techniques, adsorption/ion exchange
has been known as a most important method for removing heavy metal ions and organic pollutants
due to great removal performance, simple and easy process, cost-effectiveness and the considerable
choice of adsorbent materials.
:
Nanotechnology and its applications have been developed in most branches of science and technology.
Extensive studies have been conducted to remove heavy metal ions from wastewater by preparation
and applications of various nanomaterials. Nanomaterials offer advantages in comparison to other
materials including an extremely high specific surface area, low-temperature modification, short
intraparticle diffusion distance, numerous associated sorption sites, tunable surface chemistry, and
pore size. In order to evaluate an adsorbent, two key parameters are: the adsorption capacity and the
desorption property. The adsorption parameters including the absorbent loading, pH and temperature,
concentration of heavy metal ion, ionic strength, and competition among metal ions are often studied
and optimized.
:
Several reviews have been published on the application of Graphene (G), Graphene Oxide (GO) in
water treatment. In this minireview, we attempted to summarize the recent research advances in water
treatment and remediation process by graphene-based materials and provide intensive knowledge
of the removal of pollutants in batch and flow systems. Finally, future applicability perspectives are
offered to encourage more interesting developments in this promising field. This minireview does not
include patent literature.

Abstract
Novel adsorbent, diethylenetriamine-grafted Spirodela polyrhiza (DSP), was synthesized via modifying natural S. polyrhiza (SP) with diethylenetriamine by cross-linking with epichlorohydrin and applied to adsorb Ni2+ and Pb2+ from water. The effecting parameters on adsorption of Ni2+ and Pb2+ such as adsorbent dosage, pH, contact time, temperature, and initial concentration were studied through equilibrium experiments. The adsorption of Ni2+ and Pb2+ followed the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir isotherm adsorption model. The study discusses thermodynamic parameters, including changes in Gibbs free energy, entropy, and enthalpy, for the adsorption of Ni2+ and Pb2+ on DSP, and revealed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic under natural conditions. The maximum Ni2+ and Pb2+ adsorption capacities of DSP were 33.02 and 36.50 mg/g, respectively. The newly prepared materials were characterized through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mapping analysis, and zeta potential analysis. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses indicated that functional groups (-OH and N-H) were involved in Ni2+ and Pb2+ adsorption. Notably, DSP can be easily regenerated and reused for multiple cycles. Therefore, DSP is a promising adsorbent for effective Ni2+ and Pb2+ removal.
