Abstract
The presence of fluoroquinolone (FQ) antibiotics in soils may cause a threat to human health due to overexposure and the generation of antibiotic resistance genes. Understanding their sorption behavior in soils is important to predict subsequent FQ (bio) availability. Here, FQ sorption in pure soil organic (i.e., humic substances) and mineral (i.e., metal oxides; phyllosilicates) components is evaluated through a solid-liquid distribution coefficient (Kd (FQ)) dataset consisting of 243 entries originated from 80 different studies, to elucidate their respective contribution to the overall Kd (FQ) in bulk soils. First, different factors affecting FQ sorption and desorption in each of these soil phases are critically discussed. The strong role of pH in Kd (FQ), due to the simultaneous effect on both FQ speciation and surface charge changes, encouraged the derivation of normalized sorption coefficients for the cationic, zwitterionic and anionic FQ species in humic substances and in different phyllosilicates. Kd (FQ) in metal oxides revealed a key role of metal nature and material specific surface area due to complexation sorption mechanisms at neutral pH. Cumulative distribution functions (CDF) were applied to each dataset to establish a sorption affinity range for each phase and to derive best estimate Kd (FQ) values for those materials where normalized sorption coefficients to FQ species were unavailable. The data analysis conducted in the different soil phases set the basis for a Kd (FQ) prediction model, which combined the respective sorption affinity of each phase for FQ and phase abundance in soil to estimate Kd (FQ) in bulk soils. The model was subsequently validated with sorption data in well characterized soils compiled from the literature.

Abstract
Oxygen vacancy-rich β-Bi2O3/Bi2O2SiO3 (BO/BOS) Z-Scheme heterojunction was prepared by hydrothermal method-assisted calcination. Under visible light, β-Bi2O3/Bi2O2SiO3 photocatalyst demonstrated superior photocatalytic efficacy in degrading antibiotics and antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli (AR E. coli) compared to individual β-Bi2O3 and Bi2O2SiO3. The experimental results showed that BO/BOS-450 sample possessed the best photocatalytic activity against tetracycline (2 h, 80.8%), amoxicillin (4 h, 57.9%) and AR E. coli (3 h, 107.43 CFU·mL-1). BO/BOS-450 sample showed 91.8% electrostatic capture of AR E. coli in the bacterial capture experiment. In the antibiotic-resistant genes (ARGs) transformation experiment, the tetracycline-resistant, amoxicillin-resistant and ceftriaxone-resistant genes were completely removed after 4 h. Oxygen vacancies (OVs) were verified through HR-TEM, XPS and EPR analyses. ESR experiments aligned with the quenching experiment results, confirming that the crucial active species were •O- 2 and h+ during photocatalytic sterilization. A small-scale sewage treatment equipment was designed for the effective removal of ARB from real water samples.

Abstract
There is little information on how widespread surfactants affect the adsorption of norfloxacin (NOR) onto iron oxide minerals. In order to elucidate the effects of various surfactants on the adsorption characteristics of NOR onto typical iron oxides, we have explored the different influences of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS), an anionic surfactant, and didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB), a cationic surfactant, on the interactions between NOR and ferrihydrite under different solution chemistry conditions. Interestingly, SDBS facilitated NOR adsorption, whereas DDAB inhibited NOR adsorption. The adsorption-enhancement effect of SDBS was ascribed to the enhanced electrostatic attraction, the interactions between the adsorbed SDBS on ferrihydrite surfaces and NOR molecules, and the bridging effect of SDBS between NOR and iron oxide. In comparison, the adsorption-inhibition effect of DDAB owning to the adsorption site competitive adsorption between NOR and DDAB for the effective sites as well as the steric hindrance between NOR-DDAB complexes and the adsorbed DDAB on ferrihydrite surfaces. Additionally, the magnitude of the effects of surfactants on NOR adsorption declined with increasing pH values from 5.0 to 9.0, which was related to the amounts of surfactant binding to ferrihydrite surfaces. Moreover, when the background electrolyte was Ca2+, the enhanced effect of SDBS on NOR adsorption was caused by the formation of NOR-Ca2+-SDBS complexes. The inhibitory effect of DDAB was due to the DDAB coating on ferrihydrite, which undermined the cation-bridging effect. Together, the findings from this work emphasize the essential roles of widely existing surfactants in controlling the environmental fate of quinolone antibiotics.

Abstract
Recently, water contamination caused by the misuse of antibiotics has become a growing concern. In this study, an economical chitin/calcite composite (CCA) was extracted from crab shell waste, and the effects and mechanisms of its removal of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solution were investigated. The functional groups of chitin and the metal phase of calcite gave CCA the ability to remove antibiotics. Experiments on kinetics, isothermal adsorption, thermodynamics, co-removal, and reusability were conducted to systematically explore the adsorption performances of CCA toward antibiotics. The pseudo-second-order (FSO) and Langmuir models suited the data obtained from experiments best and displayed a good fit for the chemisorption and a certain homogeneity of adsorption sites. At 25 °C, the maximum adsorption capacities (Qmax) toward CIP and TC were 228.86 and 150.76 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption mechanisms of CCA with TC and CIP are pH dependent since pH can affect the surface charge of CCA and the form in which CIP and TC are existing. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) demonstrated that the keto-O and carboxyl groups of CIP and the carbonyl, hydroxyl, and amido groups of TC could be responsible for the binding with the calcite and the functional groups of chitin through surface complexation, cation bridge and hydrogen bonding.

Abstract
Molecularly imprinted magnetic biochar (MBC@MIPs) was synthesized through molecular imprinting precipitation polymerization. This material demonstrated a selective adsorption capacity of oxytetracycline (OTC) from water samples. Upon characterization of MBC@MIPs, results revealed the formation of a memory cavity shell layer on the magnetic biochar's surface, exhibiting a distinctive recognition effect alongside commendable magnetic and thermal stability. Analysis of the adsorption kinetics indicated that the OTC adsorption process aligned well with the pseudo-second-order rate equation, with chemisorption acting as the predominant mechanism for antibiotic adsorption onto MBC@MIPs. The data could be well described by the Langmuir isotherm model. At 299 K, MBC@MIPs showed a maximum binding capacity of 67.89 mg·g-1, surpassing that of MBC (38.84 mg·g-1) by 1.77 times. MBC@MIPs exhibited the highest selectivity towards OTC, with an imprinting factor (IF) of 5.64. Even amidst interference from antibiotics, MBC@MIPs maintained a significant adsorption capacity for OTC (6.10 mg·g-1), with IF of 6.70.

Abstract
Rapid and efficient removal of environmental antibiotics is vital to curb bacterial resistance. Through rational precursors-oriented design, we attain the best Al2O3 absorbent by 500 °C calcination of ammonium aluminium carbonate hydroxide (AACH) precursor from NH4HCO3 route (AACH-NH4HCO3-500) for fast and efficient removal of tetracycline (TC) and other antibiotics from environmental waters including high-salinity wastewater. AACH-NH4HCO3-500 (0.25 g·L-1) can remove (69.92 ± 1.78)% of aqueous TC (0.025 g·L-1) within 5 min and (97.62 ± 2.75)% within 2 h, and the adsorption capacity is 444.4 mg·g-1, which is the highest qmax of TC for the 2 h-adsorptions among numerous adsorbents. AACH-NH4HCO3-500 has fine tolerance to the coexisting substances, and can be easily regenerated and reused, and has no harm even discarded. The relations among the synthetic methods, the structural features, and the adsorption functions of Al2O3 are disclosed through a systematic comparison of the commercial Al2O3 and different Al2O3 nanomaterials attained from three precursors produced by five different routes. The reasons behind the exceptional adsorption performance are discussed throughout. Our findings would facilitate the development of excellent adsorbents for removal of other pollutants.

Abstract
The interactions between organic pollutants and iron minerals play an important role in their environmental fate. In this study, the effects of low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs) on the adsorption and degradation of tetracycline (TC) on goethite were investigated. Tartaric acid (TA) was taken as the representative of LMWOAs to study the influencing mechanism through batch experiments and microscale characterization. In addition, the properties of TC-TA clusters under different pHs were determined by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The results showed that all five LMWOAs inhibited TC adsorption and degradation. The preferential adsorption of TA on goethite changed TC adsorption from inner spherical to outer spherical complexation and mainly inhibited TC adsorption and degradation of the singly coordinated hydroxyl group. TC degradation rate decreased from 0.0287 to 0 h-1 in the first stage. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results showed that TA could influence the interactions of amide groups, C = O on the A-ring, and dimethylamino group of TC with goethite, and the formation of ≡Fe(II) was inhibited. In addition to competing for the effective sites, the effects of complexation between TA and TC in solution should be considered. According to DFT calculations, hydrogen bonds could be formed between the carboxyl group of TA and the H atom of TC at different pH. These findings can provide evidence for estimating the contribution of adsorption and degradation to TC removal by iron oxides with the coexistence of LMWOAs in a soil-water environment.

Abstract
The sorption of antibiotics on soil minerals and their cotransport have been widely studied for the past few years; however, these processes in concentrated salt solutions (estuary-like conditions) are not fully understood. This study aims to determine the possible sorption of oxytetracycline (OTC) on various natural and synthesized microsized minerals (including haematite, goethite, kaolinite, bentonite, lateritic, kaolinitic and illitic soil clays) under conditions mimicking pure, fresh, brackish and sea waters. The sorption of OTC was found to decrease in surface charge (herein zeta potential), hence altering the colloidal properties of the materials used. The sorption capacities of soil clays for OTC follow the inequality illitic soil clay > kaolinitic soil clay > lateritic soil clay, and the sorption capacities were found to decrease at higher salt concentrations. Seawater can intensify the release of the sorbed OTC from soil clay surfaces while favouring the coaggregation of the remaining OTC with soil clays. This implies that the long-range transport of OTC or other similar antibiotics can be governed by the mineralogical composition/properties of the suspended particles. More importantly, increasing salt concentrations in estuaries may form a chemical barrier at which limited amounts of OTC/antibiotics can pass through, while the remaining OTC/antibiotics can be favoured to aggregate simultaneously with suspended mineral particles.

Abstract
Excessive phosphate and tetracycline (TC) contaminants pose a serious risk to human health and the ecological environment. As such exploring the simultaneous adsorption of phosphate and TC is garnering increasing attention. In this study, an efficient lanthanum ferrate magnetic biochar (FLBC) was synthesised from crab shells using an ultrasound-assisted sol-gel method to study its performance and mechanisms for phosphate and TC adsorption in aqueous solutions in mono/bis systems. According to the Langmuir model, the developed exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity of 65.62 mg/g for phosphate and 234.1 mg/g for TC (pH:7.0 ± 0.1, and 25 °C). Further, it exhibited high resistance to interference and pH suitability. In practical swine wastewater applications, whereby the concentrations of phosphate and TC are 37 and 19.97 mg/L, respectively, the proposed material demonstrated excellent performance. In addition, electrostatic adsorption, chemical precipitation and ligand exchange were noted to be the main mechanisms for phosphate adsorption by FLBC, whereas hydrogen bonding and π-π interaction were the main adsorption mechanisms for TC adsorption. Therefore, this study successfully prepared a novel and efficient adsorbent for phosphate and TC.

[PMID: 37634454 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2023.120509] [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: 06/07/2023] [Revised: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
Herein, the influences of rhamnolipid (a typical biosurfactant) on oxytetracycline (OTC) transport in the porous media and their variations with the surface heterogeneities of the media (uncoated sand, goethite (Goe)-, and humic acid (HA)-coated sands) were explored. Compared to uncoated sand, goethite and HA coatings suppressed OTC mobility by increasing deposition sites. Interestingly, rhamnolipid-affected OTC transport strongly depended on the chemical heterogeneities of aquifers and biosurfactant concentrations. Concretely, adding rhamnolipid (1-3 mg/L) inhibited OTC mobility through sand columns because of the bridging effect of biosurfactant between sand and OTC. Unexpectedly, rhamnolipid of 10 mg/L did not further improve the inhibition of OTC transport owing to the fact that the deposition capacity of rhamnolipid reached its maximum. OTC mobility in Goe-coated sand columns was inhibited by 1 mg/L rhamnolipid. However, the inhibitory effect decreased with the increasing rhamnolipid concentration (3 mg/L) and exhibited a promoted effect at 10 mg/L rhamnolipid. This surprising observation was that the increased rhamnolipid molecules gradually occupied the favorable deposition sites (i.e., the positively charged sites). In comparison, rhamnolipid facilitated OTC transport in the HA-coated sand column. The promotion effects positively correlated with rhamnolipid concentrations because of the high electrostatic repulsion and deposition site competition induced by the deposited rhamnolipid. Another interesting phenomenon was that rhamnolipid's enhanced or inhibitory effects on OTC transport declined with the increasing solution pH because of the decreased rhamnolipid deposition on porous media surfaces. These findings benefit our understanding of the environmental behaviors of antibiotics in complex soil-water systems containing biosurfactants.

Abstract
Since cancer is a continuously increasing concern for the general population, more efficient treatment alternatives ought to be developed. In this regard, a promising direction is represented by the use of magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) to act both as a nanocarrier for the targeted release of antitumoral drugs and as hyperthermia agents. Thus, the present study focused on improving the control upon the outcome properties of MNPs by using two synthesis methods, namely the co-precipitation and microwave-assisted hydrothermal method, for the incorporation of usnic acid (UA), a natural lichen-derived metabolite with proven anticancer activity. The obtained UA-loaded MNPs were thoroughly characterized regarding their morpho-structural and physicochemical properties through X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), dynamic light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). Results demonstrated the formation of magnetite as the unique mineralogical phase through both types of synthesis, with increased uniformity regarding the drug loading efficiency, size, stability, and magnetic properties obtained through the microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of the nanostructures against the HEK 293T cell line was investigated through the XTT assay, which further proved their potential for anticancer treatment applications.

Abstract
To date, little information is available regarding the impacts of the widespread anionic surfactants on the adsorption behaviors of antibiotics onto typical iron oxides. Herein, we have investigated the effects of two typical surfactants (sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS)) on the adsorption of two widely used antibiotics (i.e., levofloxacin (LEV) and ciprofloxacin (CIP)) onto ferrihydrite. Results of kinetic experiments showed that the adsorption of antibiotics was well fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic models, indicating that the adsorption process might be controlled by chemisorption. The affinity of ferrihydrite toward CIP was greater than that toward LEV, which was ascribed to the higher hydrophobicity of CIP than LEV. Both surfactants enhanced antibiotic adsorption owing to SDS or SDBS molecules as bridge agents between ferrihydrite particles and antibiotics. Interestingly, the extent of the enhanced effects of surfactants on antibiotic adsorption declined as the background solution pH increased from 5.0 to 9.0, which was mainly due to the weaker hydrophobic interactions between antibiotics and the adsorbed surfactants on the iron oxide surfaces as well as the greater electrostatic repulsion between the anionic species of antibiotics and the negatively charged ferrihydrite particles at higher pH. Together, these findings emphasize the importance of widespread surfactants for illustrating the interactions between fluoroquinolone antibiotics and iron oxide minerals in the natural environment.

Abstract
Laboratory rabbits are fed foods rich with cationic metals, and while fasting cannot empty gastric contents because of their coprophagic habits. This implies that, in rabbits, the oral bioavailability of chelating drugs could be modulated by the slow gastric emptying rates and the interaction (chelation, adsorption) with gastric metals. In the present study, we tried to develop a rabbit model with low amounts of cationic metals in the stomach for preclinical oral bioavailability studies of chelating drugs. The elimination of gastric metals was achieved by preventing food intake and coprophagy and administering a low concentration of EDTA 2Na solution one day before experiments. Control rabbits were fasted but coprophagy was not prevented. The efficacy of rabbits treated with EDTA 2Na was evaluated by comparing the gastric contents, gastric metal contents and gastric pH between EDTA-treated and control rabbits. The treatment with more than 10 mL of 1 mg/mL EDTA 2Na solution decreased the amounts of gastric contents, cationic metals and gastric pH, without causing mucosal damage. The absolute oral bioavailabilities (mean values) of levofloxacin (LFX), ciprofloxacin (CFX) and tetracycline hydrochloride (TC), chelating antibiotics, were significantly higher in EDTA-treated rabbits than those in control rabbits as follows: 119.0 vs. 87.2%, 9.37 vs. 13.7%, and 4.90 vs. 2.59%, respectively. The oral bioavailabilities of these drugs were significantly decreased when Al(OH)3 was administered concomitantly in both control and EDTA-treated rabbits. In contrast, the absolute oral bioavailabilities of ethoxycarbonyl 1-ethyl hemiacetal ester (EHE) prodrugs of LFX and CFX (LFX-EHE, CFX-EHE), which are non-chelating prodrugs at least in in vitro condition, were comparable between control and EDTA-treated rabbits irrespective of the presence of Al(OH)3, although some variation was observed among rabbits. The oral bioavailabilities of LFX and CFX from their EHE prodrugs were comparable with LFX and CFX alone, respectively, even in the presence of Al(OH)3. In conclusion, LFX, CFX and TC exhibited higher oral bioavailabilities in EDTA-treated rabbits than in control rabbits, indicating that the oral bioavailabilities of these chelating drugs are reduced in untreated rabbits. In conclusion, EDTA-treated rabbits were found to exhibit low gastric contents including metals and low gastric pH, without causing mucosal damage. Ester prodrug of CFX was effective in preventing chelate formation with Al(OH)3 in vitro and in vivo, as well as in the case of ester prodrugs of LFX. EDTA-treated rabbits are expected to provide great advantages in preclinical oral bioavailability studies of various drugs and dosage formulations. However, a marked interspecies difference was still observed in the oral bioavailability of CFX and TC between EDTA-treated rabbits and humans, possibly due to the contribution of adsorptive interaction in rabbits. Further study is necessary to seek out the usefulness of the EDTA-treated rabbit with less gastric contents and metals as an experimental animal.

Abstract
Interfacial reactions drive all elemental cycling on Earth and play pivotal roles in human activities such as agriculture, water purification, energy production and storage, environmental contaminant remediation, and nuclear waste repository management. The onset of the 21st century marked the beginning of a more detailed understanding of mineral aqueous interfaces enabled by advances in techniques that use tunable high-flux focused ultrafast laser and X-ray sources to provide near-atomic measurement resolution, as well as by nanofabrication approaches that enable transmission electron microscopy in a liquid cell. This leap into atomic- and nanometer-scale measurements has uncovered scale-dependent phenomena whose reaction thermodynamics, kinetics, and pathways deviate from previous observations made on larger systems. A second key advance is new experimental evidence for what scientists hypothesized but could not test previously, namely, interfacial chemical reactions are frequently driven by "anomalies" or "non-idealities" such as defects, nanoconfinement, and other nontypical chemical structures. Third, progress in computational chemistry has yielded new insights that allow a move beyond simple schematics, leading to a molecular model of these complex interfaces. In combination with surface-sensitive measurements, we have gained knowledge of the interfacial structure and dynamics, including the underlying solid surface and the immediately adjacent water and aqueous ions, enabling a better definition of what constitutes the oxide- and silicate-water interfaces. This critical review discusses how science progresses from understanding ideal solid-water interfaces to more realistic systems, focusing on accomplishments in the last 20 years and identifying challenges and future opportunities for the community to address. We anticipate that the next 20 years will focus on understanding and predicting dynamic transient and reactive structures over greater spatial and temporal ranges as well as systems of greater structural and chemical complexity. Closer collaborations of theoretical and experimental experts across disciplines will continue to be critical to achieving this great aspiration.

Abstract
Particles are ubiquitous and abundant in natural waters and play a crucial role in the fate and bioavailability of organic pollution. In the present study, natural mineral (kaolinites, KL), organic (humic/fulvic acid, HA/FA) and their composite particles were further separated into particles fractions (PFs, >1 μm) and colloidal fractions (CFs, 1 kDa-1 μm) by cross-flow ultrafiltration (CFUF). This research demonstrated the role of kaolinite-humic composite colloids on the adsorption of fluoroquinolone norfloxacin (NOR). The Freundlich model satisfactory described adsorption curves, showing strong affinity of NOR to CFs, with sorption capacity (KF) between 8975.50 and 16638.13 for NOR. The adsorption capacities of NOR decreased with the particle size increasing from CFs to PFs. In addition, composite CFs showed excellent adsorption capacity, which was mainly attributed to the larger specific surface area of composite CFs and electronegativity and numerous oxygen-containing functional groups on the surfaces of the complexes, and electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bond and cation exchange could dominate the NOR adsorption onto the composite CFs. The best pH value under adsorption condition of composite CFs varied from weakly acidic to neutral with the increase of load amount of humic and fulvic acids on the surface of inorganic particles. The adsorption decreased with higher cation strength, larger cation radius and higher cation valence, which depended on the surface charge of colloids and the molecular shape of NOR. These results provided insight into the interfacial behaviors of NOR on the surfaces of natural colloids and promoted the understanding of the migration and transport of antibiotics in environmental systems.

Abstract
Designing high-efficiency photocatalysts responsive to visible light is important for the degradation of antibiotics in water. Heterojunction engineering is undoubtedly an effective strategy to improve the photocatalytic performance. In this work, spinel-type metal oxides (NiAl2O4, NAO) are synthesized by a simple sol-gel and calcination process. After compounding graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), NAO/g-C3N4 heterojunction is obtained, which then is used as the photocatalyst for tetracycline hydrochloride (TC). The effects of photocatalyst dosage, the initial concentration of TC, and solution pH on photodegradation performance are systematically studied. The removal rate of TC on NAO/g-C3N4 reach up to ∼90% after visible light irradiation for 2 hr and the degradation rate constant is ∼7 times, and ∼32 times higher than that of pure NAO and g-C3N4. The significantly improved photocatalytic activity can be attributed to the synergistic effect between well matched energy levels in NAO/g-C3N4 heterojunctions, improvement of interfacial charge transfer, and enhancement of visible light absorption. This study provides a way for the synthesis of efficient photocatalysts and an economic strategy for removing antibiotics contamination in water.

Abstract
The increasing daily use of cosmetic and personal care ingredients (CPCIs) requires improved understanding of the fate and impacts of CPCIs in environmental systems. Effects of CPCIs on colloidal properties of various geocolloids such as iron oxides (goethite, haematite), clay minerals (kaolinite, bentonite) and soil clays (kaolinitic-, illitic- and lateritic soil clays) were studied by tracking time-resolved changes in zeta potential (ζ) and observing suspended particle density. Two polymers representing anionic CPCIs, i.e., polyacrylate crosspolymer-11 (PC11) and cationic CPCIs, i.e., polyDADMAC (PD) show contrast effects on ζ and colloidal properties of the selected materials. While PC11 tended to associate with Fe oxides, PD can be adsorbed by clay minerals and soil clays. The neutralization due to the sorption of either PC11 or PD onto opposite-charge sign surface sites can lower the net surface charge of the materials, thereby enhancing electrostatic attraction, stimulating particle size growth, and eventually intensifying co-aggregation. The observed colloidal properties of iron oxides, clay minerals and soil clays under the presence of PC11 and PD may reflect what are happening in many aquatic environments where CPCIs co-exist with various mineral colloids. Therein, CPCIs likely delay the transport of the opposite-charge sign colloids, while they increase the dispersibility and transportability of the same-charge sign colloids. This implies that intensifying presence of a given CPCI could have selective effects on colloid systems. As a whole, CPCIs can change the fate and the final destination of mineral colloids and themselves; therefore, their effects and relevant treatment techniques need to be included into the future agenda.

Abstract
Antibiotics undergo a series of complex transport and transformation route after entering the environment; however, there is scarce information about the effects of the bacterial phosphate-solubilizing process on tetracycline (TC) transformation. In this study, Pseudomonas sp. TC952 was identified as phosphate-solubilizing bacterium with high phosphate-solubilizing ability even under TC stress; it could solubilize maximum phosphate with a production of 400 mg/L soluble phosphate in 2 days. TC did not affect phosphate solubilizing in a short time incubation, but slightly promoted in a long incubation time. TC was adsorbed by inorganic phosphate with high efficiency of 53.09% within 1 day. Four tetracycline antibiotic resistance and sixteen inorganic phosphate-solubilizing-related genes were identified in the genome, which revealed the phosphate-solubilizing mechanism was that strain TC952 secrete organic acid to resolve inorganic phosphate and also secrete siderophore to chelate inorganic phosphate. So, during the inorganic phosphate-solubilizing process of strain TC952, TC was de-adsorbed from inorganic phosphate, and the solution was acidified into pH 4.3 through secreting organic acid to dissolve inorganic phosphorus, which resulted in Ca2+ and PO43- releasing into the solution. Finally, the acidic condition and PO43- enhanced TC hydrolysis. The mechanism of phosphate-solubilizing process on TC removal and genome analysis provides us new insight of the TC migration and transformation route in the environment.

Abstract
The generation and accumulation of discarded coal gangue (CG) have severe environmental impacts. CG can adsorb other pollutants in the aquatic environment. However, previous studies have not assessed whether CG can adsorb the emerging contaminant tetracycline hydrochloride (TC). Here, discarded CG taken from a mine was pretreated by crushing, cleaning, and sieving and subsequently applied to the adsorption of TC. The adsorption studies were carried out by batch equilibrium adsorption experiments. Our findings indicated that the adsorption behavior could be accurately described using the quasi-first order kinetic and Langmuir adsorption isotherm models, indicating that monolayer adsorption was the main mechanism mediating the interaction between CG and TC. The adsorption process was classified as a thermodynamic endothermic and spontaneous reaction, which was controlled by chemical and physical adsorption, including electrostatic interaction and cation exchange. The pH of the solution had a great influence on the TC adsorption capacity of GC, with higher adsorption occurring in acidic environments compared to alkaline environments. This was attributed to the changes in CG Zeta potential and TC pKa at different pH conditions. Collectively, our findings demonstrated the potential applicability of discarded CG for the adsorption of TC and provided insights into the adsorption mechanisms.

Abstract
The current state of knowledge on the transport behaviors of oxytetracycline (OTC, a typical tetracycline antibiotic) in porous media with heterogeneous chemical surfaces is inadequate. In this work, the mobility properties of OTC through saturated porous media with different chemical heterogeneities (i.e., quartz sand, montmorillonite (MMT)-, humic acid (HA)-, and goethite (Goe)-coated sands) were investigated. In comparison with the mobility of OTC in the quartz sand, HA and goethite coatings inhibited the mobility of OTC, whereas montmorillonite coating enhanced OTC mobility. HA coating inhibited the transport of OTC that stemmed from the strong interactions between HA and OTC via complexation, π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding, and hydrophobic interaction. The positively charged iron oxide coating on Goe-coated sand provided favorable sites for OTC deposition through complexation and electrostatic attraction. The enhanced transport of OTC through MMT-coated sand was mainly due to the strong electrostatic repulsion between the anionic OTC species (i.e., OTC-) and negatively charged porous media. Solution pH (5.0-9.0) posed a negligible effect on the trend of OTC mobility in different porous media. Furthermore, Ca2+ inhibited the transport of OTC mobility through various porous media via cation-bridging. The findings of this work contribute significantly to our understanding of the influence of aquifer surface chemical heterogeneities on OTC mobility behaviors in the subsurface environment.

Abstract
Dissolved organic matter (DOM), which exists widely in the environment, coming from different sources, may greatly affect the adsorption of antibiotics. However, the adsorption mechanisms of antibiotics in a sandy soil and the effects of DOM from different sources on the adsorption remain poorly understood. This study systematically investigated the adsorption characteristics of norfloxacin (NOR) onto a sandy soil obtained from the banks of Xi'an in Yellow River and in the presence of three DOM including HDOM (commercially available humic acids), LDOM (derived from fallen leaves) and MDOM (derived from cattle manure). Elemental analysis, UV-vis spectroscopy, 3D-EEM, XPS, TOC, SEM, and FTIR were used to analyze the adsorption mechanism. It was found that all the DOM sources we used could reduce the adsorption of NOR on sandy soil and prolong the reaction time to reach adsorption equilibrium. The decreasing adsorption capacities of NOR by the three types of DOM (10 mg/L) followed the order as: HDOM < LDOM < MDOM, which was related to their aromaticity, polarity and hydrophobicity. These adsorption processes of NOR on sandy soil in the presence of DOM were well fitted by Double-chamber first-order kinetics, Linear model and Freundlich models. Besides, the adsorption reaction was endothermic and spontaneous. Adsorption competition of DOM molecules with NOR, or formation of DOM-NOR complexes in solution resulted in a decrease of sandy soil adsorption capacity. Correspondingly, co-adsorption and cumulative adsorption were also considered to be the key processes that determined NOR adsorption towards sandy soil after adding DOM. Moreover, the adsorption of NOR onto sandy soil exhibited strong pH-dependent characteristic and NOR might be more easily leached from sandy soil in the aquifer at an alkaline pH. High-ion strength suppressed the adsorption. These results would help to understand the fate and risk of NOR under the action of different DOM.

Effect of Co-Existing Cations and Anions on the Adsorption of Antibiotics on Iron-Containing Minerals. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27228037.

Abstract
The adsorption of antibiotics on minerals is an important process in their environment behavior. The adsorption behavior of antibiotics on iron-containing minerals and the effect of co-existing cations and anions were studied in this work. Magnetite, hematite, goethite and kaolin were selected as the representative minerals and characterized by SEM, XRD and BET. A total of eight antibiotics, including three quinolones, three sulfonamides and two mycins were chosen as the research targets. Results showed a higher adsorption amount of quinolones than that of sulfonamides and mycins on the surface of iron-containing minerals in most mineral systems. The adsorption isotherms of quinolones can be well fitted using the Freundlich models. The effects of five cations and five anions on the adsorption of quinolones were investigated, among which Mg2+, Ca2+, HCO3- and H2PO4- mainly showed significant inhibition on the adsorption, while the effects of K+, Na+, NH4+, Cl-, NO3- and SO42- showed less. Natural surface water samples were also collected and used as media to investigate the adsorption behavior of quinolones on iron-containing minerals. The buffering capacity of the natural water kept the reaction solution at circumneutral conditions, and the adsorption amount was mostly promoted in the goethite system (from 0.56~0.78 μmol/g to 0.52~1.43 μmol/g), but was inhibited in the other systems (magnetite: from 1.13~1.33 μmol/g to 0.45~0.76 μmol/g; hematite: from 0.52~0.65 μmol/g to 0.02~0.18 μmol/g; kaolin: from 1.98~1.99 μmol/g to 0.90~1.40 μmol/g). The results in this work help to further understand the transportation and fate of antibiotics in an aqueous environment.

Abstract
The geochemical processes of polyphosphates (poly-Ps) are important for phosphorus (P) management and environmental protection. Water-soluble ammonium polyphosphate (APP) containing various P species has been increasingly used as an alternative P-fertilizer. The various P species coexistence and the chelation of poly-Ps with mental would trigger the P's competitive adsorption and affect the APP's adsorption intensity on goethite, compared to single orthophosphate (P1). P adsorption behaviors of APP1 with two P species and APP2 with seven P species on goethite were investigated via batch experiments in comparison to the traditional P-fertilizer of mono-ammonium phosphate (MAP). Coadsorption of P1 and pyrophosphate (P2) on goethite was investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The more Fe3+ dissolved from goethite as a bridge due to the chelation of poly-Ps in APP and contributed to the stronger APP adsorption on goethite compared with MAP. Ion chromatography and spectral analysis showed P1 and P2 in APP were mainly adsorbed by goethite via mainly forming bidentate complexes. The goethite preferentially adsorbed P1 at lower APP concentration but increased the poly-Ps' adsorption at higher APP concentration. MD simulation showed that electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonds played a key role in water-phosphates-goethite systems. The P1 pre-adsorbed on goethite could be replaced by P2 at high P2 concentration. The results develop new insights regarding the selective adsorption of various P species coexistence in goethite-rich environments.

Abstract
Colloid-mediated contaminant mobility is absolutely critical for the environmental behavior of contaminants such as antibiotics in water resources. In this study, the influences of phosphate (a commonly inorganic ligand in the environment) on the ferrihydrite colloid-mediated transport of tetracycline (TC, a typical antibiotic) in porous media were investigated. In the absence of colloids, phosphate promoted TC mobility due to the competitive deposition of phosphate and TC on the sand surface as well as the electrostatic repulsion. Interestingly, ferrihydrite colloids could inhibit TC transport; however, the inhibitory effect of the colloids was weakened by the addition of phosphate. This phenomenon stemmed from colloid-associated TC mobility, the increased electrostatic repulsion induced by adsorbed phosphate, and deposition site competition effect. Another interesting finding was that the impacts of phosphate on the colloid-mediated mobility of TC were pH-dependent. That is, phosphate exhibited a weaker effect on the inhibitory role of ferrihydrite colloids in TC mobility at pH 5.0 than that at pH 7.0; specially, ferrihydrite colloids acted as possible carriers of TC and facilitated antibiotic transport at pH 9.0. The observations were ascribed to different influences of phosphate on the binding affinity of ferrihydrite toward TC and the mobility of free TC under different pH conditions. Therefore, the findings of this study provide useful information about the fate and co-transport of antibiotics and natural mineral colloids in the presence of inorganic ligands in the aquatic environment.

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
To date, there is still very little knowledge about the combined effects of typical inorganic ligands and solution pH values on mobility characteristics of tetracycline (TC) through saturated aquifer media. In this work, three typical inorganic ligands (i.e., phosphate, silicate, and iodate) were employed in the transport experiments. Generally, all the ligands promoted TC mobility over the pH range of 5.0-9.0 owing to the enhanced electrostatic repulsion between sand grains and TC anionic forms (i.e., TC- and TC2-) as well as the competitive deposition between ligands and antibiotic molecules for attachment sites. Furthermore, the transport-enhancement effects of ligands on TC intensively depended on ligand type and followed the sequence of phosphate > silicate > iodate. This phenomenon was ascribed to their different molecular sizes and binding abilities to sand grains. Interestingly, the differences in extents of enhanced effects of various inorganic ligands on TC transport varied with background solution pH due to pH-induced different extents of deposition site competition effects. Moreover, the two-site nonequilibrium model (which accounts for an equilibrium site and a kinetic site) as well as adsorption and kinetic studies were performed to help interpret the controlling mechanisms for the synergistic effects of inorganic ligands and solution pH on TC transport in saturated quartz sand. The findings of our study clearly demonstrate that inorganic ligands may be critical factors in assessing the fate and transport of antibiotics in groundwater systems.

Abstract
The improper use of antibiotics and their discharge into the environment can have serious and hazardous consequences. The purpose of this research is to synthesize an activated carbon impregnated magnetite composite (PAC/Fe), prepare PAC/Fe/Ag/Zn nanocomposites, and innovate by simultaneously synthesizing two metals, zinc and silver, on magnetically activated carbon and check its ability to remove azithromycin antibiotic (AZT) from an aqueous solution via UV system. PAC/Fe/Ag/Zn nanocomposites were characterized by various techniques including XRD, FESEM, and EDX. A series of batch experiments were carried out under various experimental conditions such as pH of the solution (3-11), contact time (0-120 min), initial concentration of AZT (10-40 ppm), amount of PAC/Fe/Ag/Zn nano-absorbent (0.01-0.04 g/l), and recoverability and reuse. Some common isotherm models were used for the study of AZT adsorption removal and finding the best model. Also, kinetic studies of AZT removal were performed by fitting the experimental data on first-order and second-order models. In this system, under optimal conditions of pH = 9, 120 min with 0.04 g/l of PAC/Fe/Ag/Zn, 99.5% of 10 ppm AZT were degraded under UV-C irradiation. Furthermore, the obtained results of isotherm and kinetic studies revealed that Langmuir (R2 = 0.9336) isotherm model, and the pseudo-first-order kinetic model (R2 = 0.9826) had the highest correlation with the experimental data of AZT antibiotic adsorption. Finally, the reusability experiments showed that PAC/Fe/Ag/Zn nanocomposites have a high ability of antibiotic adsorption and high stability after four cycles of application (99.5 to 40%).

Abstract
The persistence of antibiotics in sewage treatment plants in recent years has become a serious problem. Meanwhile, humic acid and ammonia nitrogen are widely distributed in natural reservoirs and might influence the sorption, migration and transformation of antibiotics. In this study, natural zeolite (NZ) was evaluated as an adsorbent for the removal of levofloxacin (LEV). The physical and chemical properties of NZ before and after adsorption were characterized by various analytical techniques to develop the mechanism. The effects of ammonia nitrogen and humic acid (HA) on the interfacial behavior of LEV on NZ were explored. Comparative experiments revealed that LEV adsorption on NZ involved electrostatic interactions and ion exchange, and the adsorption processes were well fitted by the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudosecond-order kinetic model. The maximum experimental adsorption capacity of LEV was 22.17 mg·g-1 at pH 6.5. The presence of ammonia nitrogen and HA significantly suppressed the adsorption of LEV due to competitive adsorption, and the adsorption capacity decreased 58 and 46%, respectively. It is obvious that low concentrations of ammonia nitrogen and HA are conducive to improving the treatment effect of sewage. This study demonstrates that NZ is a promising and efficient material for LEV adsorption.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TC), a widely used antibiotic, is frequently detected in soil environments. It has a strong tendency to form complexes with metals, including iron (oxyhydr)oxide. In this study, ferrihydrite (Fh), a representative iron oxyhydroxide of the iron plaques on the surface of plant roots, was chosen to study the contributions of iron oxyhydroxide on the environmental fate of TC in the rhizosphere environment. Fh adsorption isotherm of TC showed good fitting to the Freundlich model, and the Fh adsorption capacity of TC was found much larger than the other iron oxyhydroxide of high crystallinity. The adsorption mechanisms mainly included electrostatic interaction, H-bonding, and complexation. The results of FTIR and XPS spectra revealed that tricarbonylamide, dimethylamino, and the hydroxyl in the B ring of TC were mainly responsible for the complexation with Fh surface hydroxyl groups. Furthermore, it should be noted that the adsorbed TC on Fh could be degraded and the degradation kinetics of TC better fitted to the pseudo-second-order model. Fh could promote electron transfer from TC to Fe(III) on the Fh surface, which led to the degradation of TC and the formation of Fe(II) ions. The degradation pathways of TC mainly involved three reactions: hydroxylation, dealkylation, and deamination. This study provides mechanistic insights on TC-Fh interaction, which improves the understanding of TC fate in the rhizosphere environment.

Abstract
Recovery of phosphorus (P) from wastewater has led to growing public concern considering its scarcity and future availability as well as its detrimental environmental impacts. However, the recovered P is inevitably contaminated with co-existing antibiotics like tetracycline (TC) and sulfamethazine (SMT) which will pose serious risks to the health of human and animals after being spread to the environment. In this study, we propose a novel scheme that can recover P from synthetic wastewater and at the same time degrade the co-existing antibiotics. To achieve such a goal, a series of biochar (BC) were prepared from calcination of waste sludge and were used both as the adsorbent for P recovery and as the catalyst for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation and antibiotic degradation. Results showed that the sludge source (i.e. Sm: municipal sludge, Sp: paper mill sludge), calcination atmosphere (i.e. air-deficient, N2, vacuum) and temperature (i.e. 600 and 800 °C) exhibited significant influence on P adsorption capacity. Generally, the BC calcined in N2 showed better P uptake, and increase of calcination temperature from 600 °C to 800 °C could further improve P uptake. Though BCp-N-600 (prepared from Sp in N2 at 600 °C) showed faster and higher P uptake (56.3 mg/g) than its counterpart BCm-N-600 (33.2 mg/g), BCm-N-600 showed stronger catalytic activity and more stable performance in the complex pollutant system (P + SMT). It was proposed that P was recovered primarily through the chemisorption and precipitation mechanism, while SMT was nearly completely degraded primarily by the ROS generated from PMS activation.

Abstract
Inorganic ligands, ubiquitous in the natural environment, can interact with iron oxide minerals. To date, our knowledge regarding the effects of inorganic ligands on the adsorption properties of antibiotics onto iron oxides is still limited. In this work, the influences of different inorganic ligands (chosen iodate, silicate, and phosphate as the model ligands) on the adsorption of tetracycline (TC) onto hematite were examined. Adsorption isotherms indicated that inorganic ligands inhibited TC adsorption. The observations were attributed to the increase of electrostatic repulsion between anionic species (i.e., TC-) and negatively charged hematite particles as well as the competition between TC- species and inorganic ligand anions for the adsorption sites on hematite surfaces. Interestingly, the inhibitory effects of the three inorganic ligands were in the order of phosphate > silicate > iodate; the trend was stemmed from their differences in the binding affinities to hematite and the molecular size. When the background solutions contained divalent cations (e.g., Ca2+), surface precipitation of Ca-inorganic ligand compounds on hematite was another important mechanism for the inhibitory effects. Furthermore, adsorption of TC onto hematite with or without inorganic ligands was strongly affected by solution pH, which was due to the combination of the amphoteric behavior of TC and highly pH-dependent surface charges of the hematite mineral. Current results highlight the critical roles of ubiquitous inorganic ligands in revealing the fate of tetracycline antibiotics in natural systems.

Abstract
The transport of tetracycline possessed a great challenge in its environmental applications. This study looked at how various low-molecular-weight organic acids (LMWOAs) affect the transport of tetracycline in environments. To that end, four LMWOAs were employed in experiments; acetic acid, malonic acid, malic acid, and citric acid. It was observed that LMWOAs promoted the tetracycline passage in presence of various experimental environments. The LMWOAs steric hindrance and deposition competition facilitated tetracycline transport at pH 5.0. The other deposition mechanism for tetracycline was the electrostatic repulsion between tetracycline and sand enhanced by deprotonated LMWOAs at pH 7.0. Moreover, the enhanced effects of LMWOAs on tetracycline mobility were intensively dependent on LMWOA type with more functional groups (e.g. carboxyl and hydroxyl groups) and larger molecular size supported stronger deposition competition, steric hindrance as well as electrostatic repulsion. Additionally, cation-bridging played a vital role for the enhanced effects of LMWOAs on tetracycline transport with divalent cations (e.g., Ca2+ and Pb2+). Interestingly, tetracycline exhibited a higher mobility in the presence of Ca2+ relative to Pb2+ regardless of LMWOAs-free or LMWOAs-addition. This phenomenon was attributed to the fact that Pb2+ has a greater affinity with tetracycline and LMWOAs than Ca2+. Furthermore, under the shadow of numerous LMWOAs, the non-equilibrium two site transportation model was employed to investigate the movement of tetracycline in porous saturated media. The present study suggests that LMWOAs may be important considerations in assessing the antibiotic passage in soil as well as groundwater.

Abstract
Given the ubiquitous mineral (e.g., clays and iron oxides) playing critical roles in impacting the fate of antibiotics in the subsurface environment, the effects of two mineral colloids (i.e., ferrihydrite and montmorillonite) on tetracycline (TC, a representative of antibiotic) transport in sand columns were investigated in this study. Interestingly, the results clearly showed that ferrihydrite colloids inhibited TC transport, while montmorillonite colloids enhanced TC mobility under neutral conditions (pH 7.0). This phenomenon resulted from the positively charged ferrihydrite colloids with weak mobility, which assisted TC deposition; besides, providing additional deposition sites for TC by the deposited ferrihydrite colloids was another important mechanism. In contrast, the transport-enhancement effect of montmorillonite on TC was attributed to the strong binding affinity of TC to clay particles as well as the competition between colloids and TC for deposition sites on sand surfaces. Moreover, the transport-inhibition effect of ferrihydrite at pH 7.0 was greater than that at pH 5.0, mainly due to more colloid-associated TC under neutral conditions. Surprisingly, ferrihydrite colloids could act as carriers of antibiotics and enhanced TC transport at pH 9.0. Because the surface charge of colloids was altered to negative and could break through the column. Meanwhile, the transport-enhancement effect of montmorillonite decreased with increasing pH from 5.0 to 9.0, resulting from the decrease of colloid-adsorbed TC. Furthermore, colloid-mediated transport of TC was influenced by ionic strength, which affected the aggregation characteristics of colloids and the binding affinities of TC to minerals. These findings provide critical information for assessing the risks of antibiotics in aquatic ecosystems where abundant natural minerals are present.

The challenges associated with the uncontrolled presence of antibiotics such as tetracycline in the environment have necessitated their removal through different techniques. Tetracycline is hard to degrade in living organisms and can even be converted to more toxic substances. In view of this, we synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles with good magnetization (70 emu g−1) and 15 nm particle size for the adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline. Characterization carried out on the synthesized iron oxides revealed a bandgap of 1.83 eV and an isoelectric point at pH 6.8. The results also showed that the pH of the solution does not directly influence the adsorption of tetracycline. The adsorption isotherm was consistent with the model proposed by Langmuir, having 97 mg g−1 adsorption capacity. Combined with the superparamagnetic behavior, this capacity is advantageous for the magnetic extraction of tetracycline from wastewater. The mechanisms of adsorption were proposed to be hydrogen bonding and n-π interactions. Photocatalytic degradation studies showed that approximately 40% of tetracycline degraded within 60 min of irradiation time with UV/vis light. The kinetics of photodegradation of tetracycline followed the pseudo-first-order mechanism, proceeding through hydroxyl radicals generated under illumination. Moreover, the photogenerated hydrogen peroxide could lead to heterogeneous photo-Fenton processes on the surface of iron oxide nanoparticles, additionally generating hydroxyl and hydroperoxyl radicals and facilitating photodegradation of tetracycline.

Abstract
As a new kind of water pollutant, antibiotics have encouraged researchers to develop new treatment technologies. Electrospun fiber membrane shows excellent benefits in antibiotic removal in water due to its advantages of large specific surface area, high porosity, good connectivity, easy surface modification and new functions. This review introduces the four aspects of electrospinning technology, namely, initial development history, working principle, influencing factors and process types. The preparation technologies of electrospun functional fiber membranes are then summarized. Finally, recent studies about antibiotic removal by electrospun functional fiber membrane are reviewed from three aspects, namely, adsorption, photocatalysis and biodegradation. Future research demand is also recommended.
