NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2024; 6:3199-3210. [PMID: 38868826 PMCID: PMC11166100 DOI: 10.1039/d4na00254g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
The present study investigates the potential of Arachis hypogaea skin-derived carbon nanospheres (CNSs) as an efficient adsorbent for the rapid removal of cationic dyes from aqueous solutions. The CNSs were synthesized through a facile, cost-effective, catalyst-free and environmentally friendly process, utilizing Arachis hypogaea skin waste as a precursor. This is the first reported study on the synthesis of mesoporous carbon nanospheres from Arachis hypogaea skin. The structural and morphological characteristics of the CNSs were confirmed by different nano-characterization techniques. The adsorption performance of the carbon nanospheres was evaluated through batch adsorption experiments using two cationic dyes-methylene blue (MB) and malachite green (MG). The effects of the initial dye concentration, contact time, adsorbent dosage, and pH were investigated to determine the optimal conditions for dye removal. The results revealed that the obtained CNSs exhibited remarkable adsorption capacity and rapid adsorption kinetics. Up to ∼98% removal efficiency was noted for both dyes in as little as 2 min for a 5 mg L-1 dye concentration, and the CNSs maintained their structural morphology even after adsorption. The adsorption data were fitted to various kinetic and isotherm models to gain insights into the adsorption mechanism and behaviour. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Redlich-Peterson model best described the experimental data, indicating multi-layer adsorption and chemisorption as the predominant adsorption mechanism. The maximum adsorption capacity was determined to be 1128.46 mg g-1 for MB and 387.6 mg g-1 for MG, highlighting the high affinity of the carbon nanospheres towards cationic dyes. Moreover, CNS reusability and stability were examined through desorption and regeneration experiments, which revealed sustained efficiency over 7 cycles. CNSs were immobilised in a membrane matrix and examined for adsorption, which demonstrated acceptable efficiency values and opened the door for further improvement.

Abstract
This study focuses on the improvement of bioremediation of textile dye Reactive Red 195 using agro-industrial waste, groundnut oil cake (GNOC) obtained after oil-pressing. The treatment of GNOC with 1 N H2SO4 had resulted in physiochemical changes on the insoluble porous adsorbent, which improved their adsorption efficiency. The dye removal efficiency increased from 55% to 94% on acidification of GNOC. The raw groundnut oil cake (RGNOC) and acid-treated groundnut oil cake (AGNOC) were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction, and zeta potential. The rate and efficiency of dye adsorption were examined using adsorption kinetics and isotherm models. The results confirm that acid-treated GNOC eliminates impurities, alter the surface functional groups, and significantly increase porous surface areas of RGNOC. The investigation of key factors such as contact time, initial concentration of dye, static/agitation impact, particle size, and adsorbent dose had significantly influenced adsorption capacity of GNOC. Adsorption of dye fits best into the Langmuir model and equilibrium data of dye on AGNOC was explained by psuedo-second-order reaction with maximum adsorption capacity of 12.65 mg/g. This emphasis AGNOC has a very excellent potential to remove the textile dye Reactive Red dye from industrial effluent.

Abstract
Discharge of textile dye effluents into water bodies is creating stress to aquatic life and contaminating water resources. In this study, a new biopolymer adsorbent silk fibroin (SF) was prepared from Bombyx mori silk fibroin (SF) and used for removal of Solochrome Black-T (SB-T) from water. This innovative adsorbent exhibits an exceptional adsorption capacity of 20.08 mg/g, achieving a removal efficiency of approximately 98.6 % within 60 min. Notably, the powdered SF adsorbent demonstrates rapid kinetics, surpassing the performance of previously reported similar adsorbents in adsorption capacity and reaction speed. The molecular weight and particle diameter of the material were observed to be > 1.243 kDa and 3 μm, respectively. The experimental investigations were performed on different parameters, viz., adsorbent dosage, contact time, repeatability, and desorption-adsorption study. The experimental data well fit for the Langmuir model (R2 = 0.937, qmax = 20.08 mg/g) and the pseudo-second-order kinetics (R2 = 0.921 and qe = 1.496 mg/g). Compared to the adsorbents reported in the literature, the newly prepared SF showed high adsorption capacity and faster kinetics to address real-life situations. The novelty of this work extends beyond its remarkable adsorption capabilities. The SF adsorbent offers a cost-effective, sustainable solution and regenerable adsorption material with minimal negative environmental impacts. This regenerability, with its versatility and broad applicability, positions powdered SF fibroin as a transformative technology in water treatment and environmental protection.

Low-cost and eco-friendly PVA/carrageenan membrane to efficiently remove cationic dyes from water: Isotherms, kinetics, thermodynamics, and regeneration study. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 350:140990.

Abstract
Methylene blue (MB), a common dye in the textile industry, has a multitude of detrimental consequences on humans and the environment. Accordingly, it is necessary to remove dyes from water to guarantee our health and sustainable ecosystem. In this study, we developed polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based hydrogel adsorbents with high adsorption capacity by adding three types of carrageenan (kappa, iota, and lambda) to remove MB from water. Thanks to the functional groups, the PVA/carrageenan membranes dramatically increased the removal efficiency (kappa, 98.8%; iota, 97.0%; lambda, 95.4%) compared to the pure PVA membrane (6.3%). Among the three types of PVA/carrageenan membranes, the PVA/kappa-carrageenan membrane exhibited the best adsorption capacity of 147.8 mg/g. This result implies that steric hindrance was considerably significant, given that kappa carrageenan has only one sulfate group in the repeating unit, whereas iota and lambda carrageenan composite PVA membranes possess two and three sulfate groups. Apart from the maximum adsorption capacity, this study addressed a variety of characteristics of PVA/carrageenan membranes such as the effects of initial MB concentration, kappa carrageenan weight percentage, contact time, adsorbent dosage, and temperature on the adsorption performance. In addition, the kinetic and thermodynamic studies were also carried out. Lastly, the reusability of the PVA/carrageenan membrane was verified by the 98% removal efficiency maintained after five adsorption-desorption cycles.

Matan N, Kongchoosi N. Prolonging broccoli shelf life through controlled release of plai essential oil using palm wood sachet as a novel absorbent material with reusable properties. J Food Sci 2024; 89:135-149. [PMID: 38018301 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.16855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 10/22/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/30/2023]
Abstract
Palm wood powder derived from palm wood waste was utilized as a novel absorbent material. The investigation involved exploring its pore structure and size to achieve the controlled release of bioactive compounds from plai oil, providing protection against pathogenic bacteria and thereby extending the shelf life of broccoli. The palm wood sachet was prepared before being placed into the broccoli bag. The process to create the sachet involved freezing the palm wood at -10°C and then drying it at a temperature of 200°C. After drying, the material was ground to achieve a particle size of 20 mesh and then packaged into sachets made from wood pulp. The optimized palm wood plai oil sachet (PWPS), measuring 5 × 7 cm, with a thickness of 0.58 µm, was produced by soaking 2 g of palm powder in plai oil at a concentration of 30 µL/mL before drying and packing it inside a 5-L polyethylene plastic bag (24 × 34 cm) along with broccoli (150 g). The packages were kept at 4°C for 20 days to determine the antimicrobial activity of the PWPS and broccoli quality. PWPS significantly inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli, Salmonella Typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes in broccoli for at least 20 days. The sachet demonstrated complete inhibition of all bacteria when reused at least two times and an 80% reduction in efficacy after three uses. Moreover, the PWPS controlled the growth of total aerobic bacteria and yeast and mold in broccoli, meeting microbiological criteria for up to 14 days. Broccoli stored with PWPS showed good quality results and contained high antioxidant value. These results demonstrate the potential application of PWPS in controlling food pathogens and spoilage microbes during storage. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: This study introduces a novel absorbent material made from palm wood powder, addressing the need for utilizing abundant waste palm wood in the food industry. The material benefits the safe transportation of vegetables from farms to markets. Its porous structure allows efficient absorption of plai oil emulsion, ensuring pathogen-free and high-quality treated broccoli. The reusable sachets benefit farmers seeking to extend the shelf life of fresh produce. This cost-effective method utilizes plai oil vapor, making it suitable for large-scale production.

Abstract
Textile wastewater (TWW) is one of the most hazardous wastewaters for ecosystems when it is discharged directly into water streams without adequate treatment. Some organic pollutants, such as dyes in TWW, are considered refractory compounds that are difficult to degrade using conventional chemical and biological methods. The bicarbonate-activated peroxide (BAP) system is an advanced oxidation process (AOP) based on applying H2O2, which has been demonstrated to be a clean and efficient technology for dye degradation, with the advantage of operating under slightly alkaline pH conditions. In this study, response surface methodology (RSM) based on a central composite design (CCD) was used to optimize the degradation of TWW contaminated with the azo dye Acid Black 194 using the BAP system catalyzed with cobalt ions in solution (Co2+). The analysis of variance (ANOVA) technique was applied to identify significant variables and their individual and interactive effects on the degradation of TWW. The optimum reagent concentrations for degrading TWW at 25 °C and with 45 μM Co2+ were 787.61 and 183.34 mM for H2O2 and NaHCO3, respectively. Under these conditions, complete decolorization (≥99.40), 32.20 % mineralization, and 52.02 % chemical oxygen demand removal were achieved. Additionally, the acute toxicity of textile wastewater before and after oxidation was evaluated with guppy fish (Poecilia reticulata), showing a total reduction in mortality after treatment with the Co2+-BAP system. The Co2+-BAP oxidation system is a potential method for textile wastewater treatment, which, in addition to achieving complete decolorization and partial mineralization, improves biodegradability and reduces the toxicity of the treated water.

Abstract
Advanced materials for the efficient treatment of textile wastewater need to be developed for the sustainable growth of the textile industry. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was modified by the incorporation of natural clay (bentonite) and mixed metal oxide (copper-cobalt oxide) to produce GO-based binary and ternary composites. Two binary composites, GO/bentonite and GO/Cu-Co Ox (oxide), and one ternary composite, GO/bentonite/Cu-Co Ox, were characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis. The adsorption efficiency of these composites was evaluated against a cationic dye, Basic Blue 41 (BB41). The composites had several surface functional groups, and the ternary composite had tubular porous structures formed by the cross-linking of the bentonite and GO planes. The BET surface area of the ternary composite was 50% higher than that of the GO. The BB41 removals were 92, 89, 80, and 69% for GO/bentonite/Cu-Co oxide, GO/bentonite, GO and GO/Cu-Co oxide, respectively. The pseudo-2nd-order and intraparticle diffusion models best describe the kinetics results, indicating chemisorption and slow pore diffusion-controlled adsorption processes. The Langmuir isotherm-derived adsorption capacity of GO/bentonite/Cu-Co oxide was 351.1 mg/g, which was very close to the measured value. After five consecutive cycles, the ternary composite retained 90% BB41 removal efficiency compared to its 1st cycle. Electrostatic interaction and pore diffusion were predicted to be the controlling mechanisms for the adsorption of the BB41. The GO-based ternary composite can be a feasible and scalable adsorbent for BB41 in wastewater treatment.
