[PMID: 39241953 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.124898] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2024] [Revised: 08/21/2024] [Accepted: 09/04/2024] [Indexed: 09/09/2024]
Abstract
Widespread contamination of soils by neurotoxic lead ions (Pb) posed a serious risk to food security, but efficient treatment in soil remained a challenge. For the adsorption of Pb, DFT calculations were firstly performed to predict the synergistic effect of sulfhydryl-hydroxyl groups as well as the ability of sulfur ions to strengthen Pb-OH bonding. Consequently, Mn-S functionalized coffee ground biochar (MSBC) was then synthesized utilizing precipitation and impregnation methods. In the soil experiment, the removal efficiency of Pb reached 82.92%, exceeding the previous research results. In addition, it successfully restored the polluted farmland near the mining area and increased the plant height of Swiss chard by 186.23%. Subsequently, synergistic effect of sulfhydryl-hydroxyl groups was confirmed by XPS, FT-IR, and DFT calculations. Furthermore, the factors affecting the structural stability of O-Pb-S were discussed by regression analysis. These reflected that MSBC can enhance the removal efficiency of Pb in soil by mitigating the competition of impurity ions to adsorption sites. These findings may provide new insights into the development of the specific passivation materials for other heavy metals.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 947:174679. [PMID: 38992370 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.174679] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2024] [Revised: 07/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024]
Abstract
Heavy metal ions and antibiotics were simultaneously detected in authentic water systems. This research, for the first time, employed synthesized sophorolipid-modified fly ash(SFA) to eliminate tetracycline(TC) and lead(Pb2+) from wastewater. Various characterization techniques, including SEM-EDS, FTIR, XPS, BET, and Zeta, were employed to investigate the properties of the SFA. The results showed that the sophorolipid modification significantly improved the fly ash's adsorption capacities for the target pollutants. The static adsorption experiments elucidated the adsorption behaviors of SFA towards TC and Pb2+ in single and binary systems, highlighting the effects of different Environmental factors on the adsorption behavior in both types of systems. In single systems, SFA exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity of 128.96 mg/g for Pb2+ and 55.57 mg/g for TC. The adsorption of Pb2+ and TC followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and Freundlich isotherm models. The adsorption reactions are endothermic and occur spontaneously. SFA demonstrates varying adsorption mechanisms for two different types of pollutants. In the case of Pb2+, the primary mechanisms include ion exchange, electrostatic interaction, cation-π interaction, and complexation, while TC primarily engages in hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction, and complexation. The interaction between Pb2+ and TC has been shown to improve adsorption efficiency at low concentrations. Additionally, adsorption-desorption experiments confirm the reliable cycling performance of modified fly ash, highlighting its potential as a cost-effective and efficient adsorbent for antibiotics and heavy metals.

Endogenous iron-enriched biochar derived from steel mill wastewater sludge for tetracycline removal: Heavy metals stabilization, adsorption performance and mechanism. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 359:142263.

Abstract
Steel mill wastewater sludge, as an iron-enriched solid waste, was expected to be converted into iron-enriched biochar with acceptable environmental risk by pyrolysis. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the chemical speciation transformation of heavy metals in biochar under various pyrolysis temperatures and its reutilization for tetracycline (TC) removal. The experimental data indicated that pyrolysis temperature was a key factor affecting the heavy metals speciation and bioavailability in biochar, and biochar with pyrolysis temperature at 450 °C was the most feasible for reutilization without potential risk. The endogenous iron-enriched biochar (FSB450) showed highly efficient adsorption towards TC, and its maximum adsorption capacity could reach 240.38 mg g-1, which should be attributed to its excellent mesoporous structure, abundant functional groups and endogenous iron cycling. The endogenous iron was converted to a stable iron oxide crystalline phase (Fe3O4 and MgFe2O4) by pyrolysis, which underwent a valence transition to form a coordination complex with TC by electron shuttling in the FSB450 matrix. The study provides a win-win approach for resource utilization of steel wastewater sludge and treatment of antibiotic contamination in wastewater.

Abstract
Toxic metal ions present in industrial waste, such as Pb(II), introduce deleterious effects on the environment. Though the adsorptive removal of Pb(II) is widely reported, there is a dearth of research on the suitable utilization and disposal of the Pb(II)-adsorbed adsorbent. In this work, an MXene-grafted terpolymer (MXTP) hydrogel has been designed for the adsorption of Pb(II) under ambient conditions of pH and temperature. The hydrogel MXTP was synthesized by facile one-pot polymerization in aqueous solvent, and the detailed structural characterization of terpolymer (TP), MXTP, and Pb(II)-loaded MXTP, i.e., Pb(II)-MXTP, was carried out by a combination of proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffractometric (XRD), thermogravimetric/differential thermogravimetric (TG/ DTG), and field emission scanning electron microscopic (FESEM) analyses. The specific capacitance and conductivities of Pb(II)-MXTP were studied with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), which unambiguously indicate successful post-adsorption application. The specific capacitance of MXTP decreased after Pb(II) adsorption, whereas the conductivity increased significantly after Pb(II) adsorption, showing that MXTP can be successfully deployed as a solid electrolyte/anode after Pb(II) adsorption. This study covers the synthesis of a novel MXene-grafted terpolymer hydrogel for adsorptive exclusion of Pb(II) and assessment of the as-adsorbed Pb(II)-loaded hydrogel as a solid electrolyte/anode material and is the first demonstration of such post-adsorptive application.

Abstract
The combination of antibiotics and heavy metals (HMs) increases the toxicity range of influence and requires additional research attention. This article analyzed the toxicity mechanisms and damage of combined pollution. Cross-resistance, co-resistance, and co-regulation are the primary toxicity mechanisms. Combined pollution increases antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), increases bacterial resistance, and promotes the horizontal transfer of ARGs, affecting the types and distribution of microorganisms. The hazard of combined pollution varies with concentration and composition. The physicochemical and biological technologies for eliminating combined pollution are primarily elaborated. Adsorption, photocatalytic degradation, and microbial treatment show high removal rates and good recyclability, indicating good application potential. This review provides a basis and reference for the further study the elimination of combined antibiotic and HM pollution.

Phosphorus recovery as K-struvite from a waste stream: A review of influencing factors, advantages, disadvantages and challenges. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2022; 214:114086.

Abstract
Currently, the depletion of natural resources and contamination of the surrounding environment demand a paradigm shift to resource recycling and reuse. In this regard, phosphorus (P) is a model nutrient that possesses the negative traits of depletion (will be exhausted in the next 100 years) and environmental degradation (causes eutrophication and climate change), and this has prompted the scientific community to search for options to solve P-related problems. To date, P recovery in the form of struvite from wastewater is one viable solution suggested by many scholars. Struvite can be recovered either in the form of NH4-struvite (MgNH4PO4•6H2O) or K-struvite (MgKPO4•6H2O). From struvite, K (MgKPO4•6H2O) and N (MgNH4PO4•6H2O) are important nutrients for plant growth, but N is more abundant in the environment than K (the soil's most limited nutrient), which requires a systematic approach during P recovery. Although K-struvite recovery is a promising approach, information related to its crystallization is deficient. Here, we present the general concept of P recovery as struvite and details about K-struvite, such as the source of nutrients, factors (pH, molar ratio, supersaturation, temperature, and seeding), advantages (environmental, economic, and social), disadvantages (heavy metals, pathogenic organisms, and antibiotic resistance genes), and challenges (scale-up and acceptance). Overall, this study provides insights into state-of-the-art K-struvite recovery from wastewater as a potential slow-release fertilizer that can be used as a macronutrient (P-K-Mg) source for plants as commercial grade-fertilizers.

Abstract
The treatment of antibiotic wastewater pollution is imminent, the studies of double-network hydrogels as adsorbents have gradually increased, it is quite important to develop a non-toxic hydrogel with excellent properties as adsorbent. In this study, a graphene oxide modified κ-carrageenan/sodium alginate (GO-κ-car/SA) gel was prepared by calcium hardening. The addition of GO nanosheets enhances the mechanical strength and anti-swelling property of the double-network hydrogel, making it possible for the application in the fixed-bed column system. The elastic modulus is twice as much as the hydrogel without GO. The maximum adsorption capacity in the experiments of the GO-κ-car/SA gel for CIP and OFL can reach 272.18 mg g-1 and 197.39 mg g-1, respectively. The GO-κ-car/SA gel always remains negatively charged, which means that the adsorption capacity of the gel is better in an acidic environment. In the fixed-bed column system, through Thomas fitting, the maximum adsorption capacity of the simulated OFL wastewater (200 mg L-1) is 83.99 mg g-1. The adsorption mechanism of antibiotics by GO-κ-car/SA gel depends on hydrogen bond, functional groups and electrostatic adsorption. The good hydrophilic properties, excellent adsorption capacity and high mechanical strength, which can ensure that the adsorbent is in full contact with the contaminants without major deformation or damage, makes the study more helpful for the further study on hydrogel in the fixed-bed column system.

Abstract
In this research, the core objective is to explore the effect of super-absorbent polymer material (poly(sodium acrylate)) on the heat storage performance of magnesium sulfate and to investigate the heat transfer behavior of 13X-zeolite, nano-aluminum oxide (nano-Al2O3) and poly(sodium acrylate) modified magnesium sulfate in a reactor. Finally it provides support for future material and reactor design. All characterizations and performance tests were done in the laboratory and a numerical simulation method was used to investigate the heat transfer behavior of the reactor. Through hydrothermal treatment, bulk MgSO4·6H2O was changed into nanoparticles (200-500 nm) when composited with poly(sodium acrylate), 13X-zeolite and nano-Al2O3. Among these materials, MgSO4·6H2O shows the highest activation energy (36.8 kJ mol-1) and the lowest energy density (325 kJ kg-1). The activation energy and heat storage energy density of nano-Al2O3 modified composite material MA-1 are 28.5 kJ mol-1 and 1305 kJ kg-1, respectively. Poly(sodium acrylate) modified composite material, MPSA-3, shows good heat storage energy density (1100 kJ kg-1) and the lowest activation energy (22.3 kJ mol-1) due its high water-absorbing rate and dispersing effect. 13X-zeolite modified composite material MZ-2 shows lower activation energy (32.4 kJ mol-1) and the highest heat storage density (1411 kJ kg-1), which is 4.3 times higher than that of pure magnesium sulfate hexahydrate. According to the heat transfer numerical simulation, hygroscopic additives could prominently change the temperature distribution in the reactor and efficiently release heat to the thermal load side. The experimental and numerical simulation temperatures are similar. This indicates that the result of the numerical simulation is very close to the actual heat transfer behavior. This reactor could output heat at around 50 °C and absorb heat in the range of 100-200 °C. All these results further prove the strategy that thermochemical nanomaterial synthesis technology combined with material-reactor heat transfer numerical simulation is feasible for future material and reactor design.

Abstract
This study reports a MgAl-LDH rice husk biochar composite (MgAl-LDH@RHB) with a regular hydrotalcite structure synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method, which was then used to remove Cd(II) and Cu(II) from water. The influencing factors on the adsorption performance were determined through batch adsorption experiments, and the adsorption characteristics and cycling capacity were evaluated with eight models and adsorption-desorption experiments. The results showed that the adsorption of Cd(II) and Cu(II) by MgAl-LDH@RHB conformed to the Langmuir-Freundlich model and PSO kinetics model, indicating single-layer chemical adsorption. In addition, the experimental maximum adsorption capacities for Cd(II) and Cu(II) were 125.34 and 104.34 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption of Cd(II) and Cu(II) by MgAl-LDH@RHB was dominated by surface precipitation and ion exchange. The findings reveal the mechanism for the heavy metal removal by MgAl-LDH@RHB and provide a theoretical reference for agricultural waste disposal and water pollution control.

Abstract
The present work provides the first attempt of using manganese dioxide loaded poly(sodium acrylate) hydrogel (MnO2@PSA) to address potential threats posed by oxytetracycline (OTC) antibiotics in aqueous environment. The MnO2@PSA was prepared via a facile approach and demonstrated enhanced removal performance even under extremely high concentrations of OTC. The outstanding performance exhibited by MnO2@PSA was attributed to synergetic effects of adsorption oxidative degradation. The synthesized composite was characterized evaluated under varying conditions. The adsorption pH was optimized at pH 5, at which the removal efficiency OTC was reached 91.46%. According to the kinetics study, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model was the best to explain the adsorption data, implying the interaction mechanisms were dominated by chemisorption. The Langmuir isotherm model was the best to explain the isotherm data, and the corresponding maximum adsorbed amount of OTC was 1150.4 mg g-1. The MnO2@PSA was highly selective for OTC adsorption and degradation under the presence of natural organic matter and common environmental metal ions. The oxidative degradation study indicated that OTC molecules were structurally degraded into 15 intermediate products via six reaction pathways. Both the theoretical models and spectroscopic methods demonstrated the removal mechanism of OTC onto MnO2@PSA was governed by ion exchange, cation-π bonding, hydrogen-bonding, and π-π electron donor-acceptor. Overall, MnO2@PSA is an excellent and environmentally sustainable material to remove OTC from water and wastewater via the combined effects of adsorption and oxidative degradation.
