ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 237:117015. [PMID: 37648191 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.117015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/27/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023]
Abstract
Aniline is a priority pollutant that is unfavorable to the environment and human health due to its carcinogenic and mutagenic nature. The performance of the dielectric barrier discharge reactor was examined based on the aniline degradation efficiency. Different parameters were studied and optimized to treat various wastewater conditions. Role of active species for aniline degradation was investigated by the addition of inhibitors and promoters. The optimum conditions were 20 mg/L initial concentration, 1.8 kV applied voltage, 4 L/min gas flow rate and a pH of 8.82. It was observed that 87% of aniline was degraded in 60 min of dielectric barrier discharge treatment at optimum conditions. UV-Vis spectra showed gradual increase in the treatment efficiency of aniline with the propagation of treatment time. Mineralization of AN was confirmed by TOC measurement and a decrease in pH during the process. To elicit the aniline degradation route, HPLC and LC-MS techniques were used to detect the intermediates and byproducts. It was identified that aniline degraded into different organic byproducts and was dissociated into carbon dioxide and water. Comparison of the current system with existing advanced oxidation processes showed that DBD has a remarkable potential for the elimination of organic pollutants.

Comparative Study of 4-Aminophenol Removal from Aqueous Solutions by Emulsion Liquid Membranes Using Acid and Basic Type 1 Facilitations: Optimisation and Kinetics. MEMBRANES 2022; 12:membranes12121213. [PMID: 36557120 PMCID: PMC9787717 DOI: 10.3390/membranes12121213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Revised: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/25/2022] [Indexed: 05/12/2023]
Abstract
The molecule 4-aminophenol (4AP) is recognised as a serious environmental pollutant that enters the environment during the manufacture and processing of a variety of industrial processes and through the degradation of some pharmaceutical products. This paper describes a comparative study of 4AP removal from aqueous solutions by emulsion liquid membranes using acid and basic type 1-facilitated transports. The results are explained by analysing the stripping process through both the different relative acid/basic strength of the hydroxyl and amine groups of the 4AP molecule and the hydrogen-bonding capacity with water of the ionisation products generated by the reaction of 4AP with HCl or NaOH. To optimize the 4AP removal process, the influence of different experimental conditions (stripping agent concentration in the product phase, surfactant concentration in the membrane phase, stirring rate, feed phase/emulsion phase volume ratio, product phase/membrane phase volume ratio and emulsification rate and time) were studied. The kinetics of the removal process has been analysed by fitting the experimental results to first order, second order and the Behnajady and Avrami models. The Behnajady model presents an excellent fit, allowing to calculate both the initial removal rate and the maximal removal conversion. Optimal conditions of the removal process obtained through these parameters are in full agreement with those obtained from the experimental study.

Understanding the toxicity effect and mineralization efficiency of in-situ electrogenerated chlorine dioxide for the treatment of priority pollutants of coking wastewater. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2021; 211:111907.

Abstract
Oxidation of phenol, cyanide and aniline have been analyzed by the enhanced electro-oxidation process in which sodium chlorite was used as an electrolyte and results were validated using statistical tool based on Box-Behnken design. The mineralization efficiency of 78.4%, and 98.18% were predicted at optimized variables condition for phenol, and aniline respectively, whereas complete mineralization has been observed for the cyanide at the optimized conditions, which describes the significance of the design model approach.The process mineralizes the higher phenol concentration revealing a drastic reduction in power consumption in comparison of direct oxidation, i.e., 799.36 kWh/kg to 138.18 kWh/kg for more than 90% mineralization of phenol even at a higher current density of 13.63 mA/cm2. The kinetic modelling approach justified that higher current density has also played a role in higher mineralization of pollutants at the specific operating conditions. The by-product formation and toxicity effect on microalgae in wastewater were assessed by the full scan mass spectrometry and microalgae pigment inhibition test after the electro-oxidation of coking wastewater. The pigment growth inhibition rate of Chlorella sp. NCQ and Micractinium sp. NCS2 suggests that sodium chlorite as an electrolyte aid can also effectively used as an oxidizing agent and algal inhibiter in the coking wastewater.

Abstract
AbstractThe performance of the hollow fiber renewal liquid membrane (HFRLM) in the continuous and recycling modes for the extraction of uranium(VI) from the acidic sulfate solution has been investigated. Alamine 336 diluted in kerosene was used as a carrier in liquid membrane (LM) phase. In the batch experiments, the effects of sulfuric acid, extractant and uranium(VI) concentration were studied and the optimum concentration of the donor and LM phases were determined 0.15 mol L−1and 0.0125 mol L−1, respectively. Various parameters affecting the HFRLM performance including the lumen and shell side flow rate, organic/aqueous volume ratio, acceptor phase type and concentration of carrier and acceptor phase were studied. The mass transfer flux increases with increasing the lumen side flow rates and the shell side flow rate did not have any significant effect. The uranium transfer flux increases with increasing O/A ratio, acceptor and Alamine 336 concentration, and reaches a maximum value at 1/20, 0.5 mol L−1and 0.0125 mol L−1, respectively. Further increase in these parameters result in uranium transfer decrement. The results show that liquid membrane phase is a rate-controlling step. Among the investigated acceptor phases, 0.5 mol L−1NH4Cl result in 60.35% uranium(VI) recovery in the recycling mode.
