J Colloid Interface Sci 2025; 677:952-966. [PMID: 39178674 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.08.131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2024] [Revised: 08/16/2024] [Accepted: 08/17/2024] [Indexed: 08/26/2024]
Abstract
Although nanozymes have shown significant potential in wastewater treatment, enhancing their degradation performance remains challenging. Herein, a novel catalytic behavior was revealed for defective nanozymes with catalase-mimicking characteristics that efficiently degraded tetracycline (TC) in wastewater. Hydroxyl groups adsorbed on defect sites facilitated the in-situ formation of vacancies during catalysis, thereby replenishing active sites. Additionally, electron transfer considerably enhanced the catalytic reaction. Consequently, numerous reactive oxygen species (ROS) were generated through these processes and subsequent radical reactions. The defective nanozymes, with their unique catalytic behavior, proved effective for the catalytic degradation of TC. Experimental results demonstrate that •OH, •O2-, 1O2 and e- were the primary contributors to the degradation process. In real wastewater samples, the normalized degradation rate constant for defective nanozymes reached 26.0 min-1 g-1 L, exceeding those of other catalysts. This study reveals the new catalytic behavior of defective nanozymes and provides an effective advanced oxidation process for the degradation of organic pollutants.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 924:171556. [PMID: 38458450 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.171556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2024] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/10/2024]
Abstract
The significant increase in hazardous waste generation in Australia has led to the discussion over the incorporation of artificial intelligence into the hazardous waste management system. Recent studies explored the potential applications of artificial intelligence in various processes of managing waste. However, no study has examined the use of text mining in the hazardous waste management sector for the purpose of informing policymakers. This study developed a living review framework which applied supervised text classification and text mining techniques to extract knowledge using the domain literature data between 2022 and 2023. The framework employed statistical classification models trained using iterative training and the best model XGBoost achieved an F1 score of 0.87. Using a small set of 126 manually labelled global articles, XGBoost automatically predicted the labels of 678 Australian articles with high confidence. Then, keyword extraction and unsupervised topic modelling with Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) were performed. Results indicated that there were 2 main research themes in Australian literature: (1) the key waste streams and (2) the resource recovery and recycling of waste. The implication of this framework would benefit the policymakers, researchers, and hazardous waste management organisations by serving as a real time guideline of the current key waste streams and research themes in the literature which allow robust knowledge to be applied to waste management and highlight where the gap in research remains.

Abstract
Turning waste into wealth, herein, two highly fluorescent N and S co-doped carbon dots (N, S-CDs-A and N, S-CDs-B) were synthesized by the hydrothermal reaction of contaminant reactive red 2 (RR2) and L-cysteine or L-methionine, respectively. The detailed morphology and structure of N, S-CDs were characterized by XRD, Raman spectrum, FTIR spectra, TEM, HRTEM, AFM and XPS. The maximum fluorescent of N, S-CDs-A and N, S-CDs-B are 565 and 615 nm under different excitation wavelengths with moderate fluorescence intensity of 14.0 % and 6.3 %, respectively. The microstructure models of N, S-CDs-A and N, S-CDs-B, which were induced by FT-IR, XPS and element analysis, had been applied in DFT calculation. The result indicated that the doping of S and N is beneficial to obtain the red-shift of fluorescent spectra. Both N, S-CDs-A and N, S-CDs-B showed highly sensitive and selective to Fe3+. N, S-CDs-A can also detect Al3+ ion with high sensitivity and selectivity. Finally, N, S-CDs-B was successfully applied in cell imaging.

Abstract
This research aims to convert pomegranate peel (PP) into microporous activated carbon (PPAC) using a microwave assisted K2CO3 activation method. The optimum activation conditions were carried out with a 1:2 PP/K2CO3 impregnation ratio, radiation power 800 W, and 15 min irradiation time. The statistical Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed as an effective tool for optimizing the factors that influence the adsorption performance and removal of methylene blue (MB) dye. The output data of BBD with a desirability function indicate a 94.8% removal of 100 mg/L MB at the following experimental conditions: PPAC dose of 0.08 g, solution pH of 7.45, process temperature of 32.1 °C, and a time of 30 min. The pseudo-second order (PSO) kinetic model accounted for the contact time for the adsorption of MB. At equilibrium conditions, the Freundlich adsorption isotherm describes the adsorption results, where the maximum adsorption capacity of PPAC for MB dye was 291.5 mg g-1. This study supports the utilization of biomass waste from pomegranate peels and conversion into renewable and sustainable adsorbent materials. As well, this work contributes to the management of waste biomass and water pollutant sequestration.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 325:121391.

Abstract
To address conventional powder catalysts' recovery and aggregation issues that greatly restrain their practical application, a recoverable graphene oxide (GO)-supported 3D-MoS2/FeCo2O4 sponge (SFCMG) was developed through a simple impregnation pyrolysis method. SFCMG can efficiently activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) to produce reactive species for rapid degradation of rhodamine B (RhB), with 95.0% and 100% of RhB being removed within 2 min and 10 min, respectively. The presence of GO enhances the electron transfer performance of the sponge, and the three-dimensional melamine sponge serves as a substrate to provide a highly dispersed carrier for FeCo2O4 and MoS2/GO hybrid sheets. SFCMG exhibits a synergistic catalytic effect of Fe and Co, and facilitates the redox cycles of Fe(III)/Fe(II) and Co(III)/Co(II) by MoS2 co-catalysis, which enhances its catalytic activity. Electron paramagnetic resonance results demonstrate that SO4•-, ·O2- and 1O2 are all involved in SFCMG/PMS system, and 1O2 played a prominent role in RhB degradation. The system has good resistance to anions (Cl-, SO42-, and H2PO4-) and humic acid and excellent performance for many typical contaminants degradation. Additionally, it works efficiently over a wide pH range (3-9) and possesses high stability and reusability with the metal leaching far below the safety standards. The present study extends the practical application of metal co-catalysis and offers a promising Fenton-like catalyst for the treatment of organic wastewater.

Abstract
In this study, a magnetic biochar with a unique 3D network structure was synthesized by using a simple and controllable method. In brief, the microbial filamentous fungus Trichoderma reesei was used as a template, and Fe3+ was added to the culture process, which resulted in uniform recombination through the bio-assembly property of fungal hyphae. Finally, magnetic biochar (BMFH/Fe3O4) was synthesized by controlling different heating conditions in a high temperature process. The adsorption and Fenton-like catalytic performance of BMFH/Fe3O4 were investigated by using the synthetic dye malachite green (MG) and the antibiotic tetracycline hydrochloride (TH) as organic pollutant models. The results showed that the adsorption capacity of BMFH/Fe3O4 for MG and TH was 158.2 and 171.26 mg/g, respectively, which was higher than that of most biochar adsorbents, and the Fenton-like catalytic degradation effect of organic pollutants was also better than that of most catalysts. This study provides a magnetic biochar with excellent performance, but more importantly, the method used can be effective in further improving the performance of biochar for better control of organic pollutants.
