Abstract
Cellulose/poly (glycerol citrate) reinforced with thiol-rich polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane and apple peel (POSS-SH@CAG-CEL/AP) was synthesized using gelation method in the presence of glutaraldehyde as a crosslinker agent and used as an efficient composite hydrogel for elimination of Tl(Ι) from aqueous solutions. This composite hydrogel and synthesized thiol-rich polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR, TGA, and FE-SEM techniques. The effects of synthetic and environmental parameters on the adsorption capacity of the composite hydrogel were investigated and it was found that thiol-rich polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane has improved the hydrogel properties including the Tl(Ι) uptake and the thermal stability. The maximum adsorption capacity of 352.3 mg g-1 was obtained within 30 min under optimum reaction conditions. A typical Langmuir adsorption isotherm with was observed for adsorption of Tl(I) onto POSS-SH@CAG-CEL/AP and pseudo-second-order kinetic model provided the best correlation between experimental data. Thermodynamic studies showed that the Tl(I) adsorption was spontaneous process and exothermic. Also, the reusability tests confirmed that the POSS-SH@CAG-CEL/AP can be reused for four times without any remarkable change in its adsorption capacity. Thus, this reusable biobased composite hydrogel can be an ideal candidate for elimination of Tl(I) from aqueous solutions.

Abbasi S. Uncovering the intricate relationship between plant nutrients and microplastics in agroecosystems. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 346:140604. [PMID: 37926162 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140604] [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: 08/27/2023] [Revised: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
Recent scientific and media focus has increased on the impact of microplastics (MPs) on terrestrial and soil ecosystems. However, the interactions between MPs with macronutrients and micronutrients and their potential consequences for the agroecosystem are not well understood. Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a staple food grown globally and has special importance for nations economies. Different elements can cause dangerous outcomes for wheat quality and production yield. In this study, batch adsorption experiments were done using 1 g of polyethylene tetra phthalate MP particles (PET-MPs) in varying concentrations of thirteen elements. The adsorption data were fitted by two common adsorption models (Langmuir and Freundlich). The effect of pH on the speciation of elements in aqueous solutions was investigated. The non-invasive characterization methods indicate the importance of O- and H-containing groups as the main component of selected MPs in controlling the adsorption of the elements ions. In the current study, adsorption and potential transport of the adsorbed macronutrients (K and Na) and micronutrients (Ni, Co, Cu, Al, Ba, Se, Fe, As, B, V and Ag) which include some beneficial (Na, Se, V), and non-essential or toxic elements (Al, As, Ag, Ba) onto MPs to the simulated roots of wheat were evaluated. The maximum sorption capacities of K+> Ni+2> Na+ > Co2+> Cu2+>Al+3 >Ba+2 >Se4+>Fe2+ >As5+ >B3+ >V5+> Ag + on PET-MPs at pH 5.8 and 25 ± 1 °C were 290.6 > 0.52> 0.51 > 0.20> 0.10 > 0.051> 0.024 > 0.003> 0.003 > 0.0015> 5.05 × 10-4> 1.7 × 10-4>3.7 × 10-6 mg g-1, respectively. The results highlight the importance of PET-MPs in controlling element adsorption in the rhizosphere. Our observations provide a good start for understanding the adsorption of multiple elements from the soil rhizosphere zone by PET-MPs.

Insight into adsorption process and mechanisms of Cr(III) using carboxymethyl cellulose- g-poly(acrylic acid- co-acrylamide)/attapulgite composite hydrogel. ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY 2023; 44:4173-4187. [PMID: 35611631 DOI: 10.1080/09593330.2022.2082325] [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: 02/17/2022] [Accepted: 05/15/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Cr(III) as one of the most concerned potentially toxic elements, is discharged from relevant industries and Cr(VI) reduction. Hydrogel-based adsorption could be one of the promising approaches for Cr(III) removal. Featured with environmental friendliness and low cost, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was employed for the hydrogel synthesis, and attapulgite (APT) could be used to strengthen its stability. However, the adsorption performance and mechanisms need to be examined. In the present study, carboxymethyl cellulose-g-poly(acrylic acid-co-acrylamide)/ attapulgite (CMC-g-p(AA-co-AM)/APT) was synthesised via in situ copolymerisation. Its efficacy for removing Cr(III) from an aqueous solution was investigated using batch adsorption experiments. Results showed that the introduction of APT enhanced the thermal stability but decreased the swelling performance of the hydrogel. The prepared hydrogel could strongly adsorb Cr(III) at a wide pH range of 3.0-7.0. Cr(III) can be efficiently removed by the composite hydrogel within 1-2 h. At low concentration, CMC-g-p(AA-co-AM)/APT could slightly adsorbed more Cr(III) than CMC-g-p(AA-co-AM). The maximum absorption of CMC-g-p(AA-co-AM) and CMC-g-p(AA-co-AM)/APT were 74.8 and 47.7 mg/g at 298 K, respectively. The negative value of ΔHo and ΔGo indicated the adsorption of Cr(III) onto the two studied hydrogels is an exothermic and spontaneous process. Ion exchange and complexation, as implied by EDS, FT-IR and XPS, combining with electrostatic attraction are the possible adsorption mechanisms for Cr(III) onto the prepared hydrogels. All the results above suggests that the composite hydrogel CMC-g-p(AA-co-AM)/APT can be a promising candidate for the removal of Cr(III) from waste water.

Abstract
A large amount of agricultural waste was used to prepare cellulose (Cel) and then the surface was modified with PEI (Cel-PEI) using the microwave method. To be used as a metal adsorbent, the adsorption of Cr (VI) from an aqueous solution by Cel-PEI was measured using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques. The parameters of Cr (VI) adsorption in solution by the Cel-PEI adsorbent were as follows: the pH of the solution was 3, the concentration of the chromium solution was 100 mg/L, and the adsorption time was 180 min at 30 °C using 0.01 g of adsorbent. Cel-PEI had a Cr (VI) adsorption capacity of 106.60 mg/g, while the unadjusted Cel was 23.40 mg/g and the material recovery showed a decrease in efficiency of 22.19% and 54.27% in the second and third cycles, respectively. The absorption isotherm of chromium adsorption was also observed. The Cel-PEI material conformed to the Langmuir model with an R2 value of 0.9997. The kinetics of chromium adsorption showed that under pseudo-second-order analysis, with R2 values of 0.9909 and 0.9958 for Cel and Cel-PEI materials, respectively. The G° and H° values of the adsorption process were negative, indicating that the adsorption is spontaneous and that the adsorption process is exothermic. The efficient preparation adsorbent materials for Cr (VI) was achieved using a short microwave method that is low-cost and environmentally friendly for use in the treatment of Cr-contaminated wastewater.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:67720-67729. [PMID: 37115451 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-27241-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
To selectively remove Cr (III) from synthetic phosphoric acid solution, a chelating ion exchanger was developed through Merrifield resin (MHL) functionalization with diethylenetriamine (DETA). The functional moieties of the grafted Merrifield resin were characterized and confirmed by means of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The morphological changes before and right after functionalization were visualized with Scanning electron microscopy and enhanced amine content was confirmed via energy dispersive X-ray. To assess the effectiveness of the MHL-DETA in the extraction of Cr (III) from a synthetic phosphoric acid solution, batch shaking adsorption tests were conducted through optimizing different factors such as contact time, metal ion concentration and temperature. According to our findings, higher adsorption was achieved when increasing contact time and decreasing metal ion concentration, while temperature variation doesn't affect much the process. The higher sorption yield was found to be 95.88% attained within 120 min at room temperature without varying the solution's pH. Under optimum conditions (120 min, 25 °C and 300 mg. L-1), the total sorption capacity was reported to be 38.35 mg. g-1. The system's adsorption behavior was found to be consistent with the Langmuir isotherm and the pseudo second-order model accurately described the kinetic data. In this view, Merrifield resin functionalized with DETA could be used as a promising adsorbent material for Cr (III) adsorption from synthetic phosphoric acid medium.

Abstract
In this study, sulfonated starch (SS) was successfully synthesized using sulfamic acid as a sulfonating agent in a deep eutectic solvent (DES). Four-factor and three-level orthogonal experiments were conducted to determine the optimal preparation conditions, which were found to be a molar ratio of starch to urea of 1:20, a reaction temperature of 90 °C, a reaction time of 5 h, and a stirring speed of 200 rpm. The sulfonation reaction mechanism was extensively studied using various techniques, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction, molecular weight, particle distribution, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and DFT calculations. The results showed that the sulfonation reaction slightly damaged starch granules, occurred on the surface of starch granules, and on the O6 atoms of the glucose unit. SS exhibited a wide pH range of application (5-10), a fast adsorption rate (400 s to reach adsorption equilibrium), and a high adsorption capacity (118.3 mg/g) under optimal conditions. The adsorption process of SS for methylene blue followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic model and was consistent with the Langmuir model, which was endothermic and spontaneous. The adsorption process was attributed to hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions.

Abstract
Heavy metals are a notable pollutant in aquatic ecosystems that results in many deadly diseases of the human body after enrichment through the food chain. As an environmentally friendly renewable resource, nanocellulose can be competitive with other materials at removing heavy metal ions due to its large specific surface area, high mechanical strength, biocompatibility and low cost. In this review, the research status of modified nanocellulose for heavy metal adsorbents is primarily reviewed. Two primary forms of nanocellulose are cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and cellulose nanofibers (CNFs). The preparation process of nanocellulose was derived from natural plants, and the preparation process included noncellulosic constituent removal and extraction of nanocellulose. Focusing on heavy metal adsorption, the modification of nanocellulose was explored in depth, including direct modification methods, surface grafting modification methods based on free radical polymerization and physical activation. The adsorption principles of nanocellulose-based adsorbents when removing heavy metals are analyzed in detail. This review may further facilitate the application of the modified nanocellulose in the field of heavy metal removal.

Synthesis of hyperbranched polyamine dendrimer/chitosan/silica composite for efficient adsorption of Hg(II). Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 230:123135.

Abstract
The pollution of water system with Hg(II) exerts hazardous effect to ecosystem and public health. Adsorption is considered to be a promising strategy to remove Hg(II) from aqueous solution. Herein, hyperbranched polyamine dendrimer/chitosan/silica composite (SiO2-FP) was synthesized for the adsorption of aqueous Hg(II). The adsorption performance of SiO2-FP was comprehensively determined by considering various influencing factors. SiO2-FP displays good adsorption performance for Hg(II) with the adsorption capacity of 0.79 mmol·g-1, which is higher than the corresponding chitosan functionalized silica (SiO2-CTS) by 46.30 %. The optimal solution pH for the adsorption of Hg(II) is 6. Adsorption kinetic indicates the adsorption for Hg(II) can reach equilibrium at 250 min. Adsorption kinetic process can be well fitted by pseudo-second-order (PSO). Adsorption isotherm reveals the adsorption for Hg(II) can be promoted by increasing initial Hg(II) concentration and adsorption temperature. The adsorption isotherm indicates the adsorption process can be described by Langmuir model and the adsorption is a spontaneous, endothermic and entropy-increased process. SiO2-FP displays excellent adsorption selectivity and can 100 % adsorb Hg(II) with the coexisting of Ni(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Mn(II), and Co(II). Adsorption mechanism demonstrates -NH-, -NH2, CN, CONH, -OH, and CO participated in the adsorption. SiO2-FP exhibits good regeneration property and the regeneration rate can maintain approximately 90 % after five adsorption-desorption cycles.

Abstract
Nanostructured materials offer a significant role in wastewater treatment with diminished capital and operational expense, low dose, and pollutant selectivity. Specifically, the nanocomposites of cellulose with inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) have drawn a prodigious interest because of the extraordinary cellulose properties, high specific surface area, and pollutant selectivity of NPs. Integrating inorganic NPs with cellulose biopolymers for wastewater treatment is a promising advantage for inorganic NPs, such as colloidal stability, agglomeration prevention, and easy isolation of magnetic material after use. This article presents a comprehensive overview of water treatment approaches following wastewater remediation by green and environmentally friendly cellulose/inorganic nanoparticles-based bio-nanocomposites. The functionalization of cellulose, functionalization mechanism, and engineered hybrid materials were thoroughly discussed. Moreover, we also highlighted the purification of wastewater through the composites of cellulose/inorganic nanoparticles via adsorption, photocatalytic and antibacterial approach.

Abstract
Thallium (Tl) has posed serious impacts on human being concerning increasingly serious pollution in aqueous environments. However, little information on removal method than conventional heavy metals have been available. In the present work, zwitterionic N-(3-sulfonato-1-propyl)-N,N-dimethylammonium grafted cellulose fibre (DMAE-PS) has been fabricated. The chemical component, thermal stability and surface properties of as-prepared materials are identified by FT-IR, elemental analysis, TGA, XRD, BET and SEM. DMAE-PS is shown to be very efficient for removing Tl(I) from water samples with a loading capacity of 274.7 mg (Tl(I))·g-1 (DMAE-PS), representing one of the best performances among bio-mass derived materials. The adsorption is consistent with the Freundlich model following a pseudo-second order (K2 = 4.36 × 10-4 g·mg-1·min-1, R2 = 0.999) and two-step intra-particle diffusion kinetics. The selectivity towards Tl(I) is also remarkably, 1-2 orders (distribution ratio KTl/M = 14.85-289.29) of magnitude larger than competing metals (Zn2+, Cr3+, Mn2+, Cu2+ and Cd2+). The SEM, XPS and UV-visible spectrum collectively reveal that -SO3--Tl(I) ionic interaction is probably the main driving force for specific adsorption, which shows a high stability against pH variation. The fabricated DMAE-PS is a sustainable bio-adsorbent with synthetic availability, high removing capacity and strong selectivity, therefore, potentially feasible in treatment of Tl(I) polluted environmental samples.

MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 16:378. [PMID: 36614717 PMCID: PMC9822515 DOI: 10.3390/ma16010378] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/26/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The review presents advances in the removal of Cr(III) from the industrial effluents published in the last ten years. Although Cr(III) has low solubility and is less dangerous for the aquatic environment than Cr(VI), it cannot be released into the aquatic environment without limitations and its content in water should be restricted. The development of efficient techniques for the removal of Cr(III) is also a response to the problem of chromium wastewater containing Cr(VI) ions. Very often the first step in dealing with such wastewater is the reduction in chromium content. In some cases, removal of Cr(III) from wastewaters is an important step for pretreatment of solutions to prepare them for subsequent recovery of other metals. In the review, hydrometallurgical operations for Cr(III) removal are presented, including examples of Cr(III) recovery from real industrial effluents with precipitation, adsorption, ion exchange, extraction, membrane techniques, microbial-enhanced techniques, electrochemical methods. The advantages and disadvantages of the operations mentioned are also presented. Finally, perspectives for the future in line with circular economy and low-environmental impact are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Potentially toxic elements (PTEs) such as toxic metal (loid)s and other emerging hazardous contaminants, exist in the environment and poses a serious threat. A large amount of wastewater containing PTEs such as cadmium, chromium, copper, nickel, arsenic, lead, zinc, etc. Release from industries during production process. Besides these, chemical-based fertilizers used in soils during crop production have become one of the crucial sources of PTEs. Various techniques are being employed for the mitigation of PTEs like chemical precipitation, ion exchange, coagulation, activated carbon, adsorption, membrane filtration, and bioremediation. Among these mitigation strategies, biological processes such as bioremediation, phytoremediation etc. Are extensively used, as they are economic have high-efficiency rate and are eco-friendly. This review intends to provide information on PTEs contamination through various sources; along with the toxicity of metal (loid)s with respect to their patterns of transmission and risks in the changing environment. Various remediation methods for the management of these pollutants along with their techno-economic perspective are also summarized in this review.

Abstract
The self-corrosion of aluminum anodes is one of the key issues that hinder the development and application of low-cost and high-energy-density Al-air batteries (AABs). Herein, a hybrid corrosion inhibitor combining ZnO and acrylamide (AM) was developed to construct a dense protective interface on the Al anode to suppress the self-corrosion and enhance the electrochemical performance of AABs. Also, the results show that the hydrogen evolution rate with the optimal combination of hybrid inhibitors is 0.0848 mL cm-2 min-1, corresponding to the inhibition efficiency of 78.03%. The integrated AABs with hybrid inhibitors show remarkable capacities of 1240.6 mA h g-1 (25 mA cm-2) and 2444.1 mA h g-1 (100 mA cm-2) and a high power density of 63.7 mW cm-2. This shows that ZnO dissolves into the electrolyte and forms a loose and porous film on the Al surface. When AM is introduced into the ZnO-containing electrolyte, the adsorption of the amide group of AM on the surface of aluminum and ZnO occurs, which not only controls the growth morphology of ZnO but also enables ZnO to easily aggregate into a layer that is in close contact with the anode, efficiently suppressing self-corrosion. This work opens up the prospect of a corrosion inhibition mechanism for ZnO and AM in alkaline solutions and for developing effective organic/inorganic hybrid inhibitors.
