Abstract
Herein, a novel copper selenide/zinc selenide/Nitrogen-doped carbon (Cu2Se/ZnSe/NC) sphere was constructed via a combination of cation exchange, selenization and carbonization approaches with zinc-based metal-organic frameworks (ZIF-8) as precursor for sulfadiazine (SDZ) removal. Compared with the ZnSe/NC, the defective Cu2Se/ZnSe interface in the optimizing Cu-ZnSe/NC2 sample caused a remarkably improved adsorption performance. Notably, the adsorption capacity of 129.32 mg/g was better than that of mostly reported adsorbents for SDZ. And the adsorption referred to multiple-layer physical-chemical process that was spontaneous and exothermic. Besides, the Cu-ZnSe/NC2 displayed fast adsorption equilibrium of about 20 min and significant anti-interference ability for inorganic ions. Specially, the adsorbent possessed excellent stability and reusability, which could also be applied for rhodamine B (RhB), methylene blue (MB), and methyl orange (MO) dyes removal. Ultimately, the charge redistribution of Cu2Se/ZnSe interface greatly contributes the superior adsorption performance for SDZ, in which electrostatic attraction occupied extremely crucial status as compared to π-π electron-donor-acceptor (π-π EDA) interaction and hydrogen bonding (H-bonding), as revealed by the density function theory (DFT) calculations and experimental results. This study can provide a guideline for design of high-efficient adsorbent with interfacial charge redistribution.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic waste generation and their improper disposal has accelerated the problems associated with increased greenhouse gas emissions and associated environmental pollution. Constructive ways to manage and mitigate the pollution associated with lignocellulosic waste has propelled the research on biochar production using lignocellulose-based substrates. The sustainability of various biochar production technologies in employing lignocellulosic biomass as feedstock for biochar production not only aids in the lignocellulosic biomass valorization but also helps in carbon neutralization and carbon utilization. Functionalization of biochar through various physicochemical methods helps in improving their functional properties majorly by reducing the size of the biochar particles to nanoscale and modifying their surface properties. The usage of engineered biochar as nano adsorbents for environmental applications like dye absorption, removal of organic pollutants and endocrine disrupting compounds from wastewater has been the thrust areas of research in the past few decades. This review presents a comprehensive outlook on the up-to-date research findings related to the production and engineering of biochar from lignocellulosic biomass and their applications in environmental remediation especially with respect to wastewater treatment. Further a detailed discussion on various biochar activation methods and the future scope of biochar research is presented in this review work.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:48561-48575.

Abstract
In this study, magnetic coconut shell biochar loaded with spherical Fe3O4 and γ-Fe2O3 particles was successfully synthesized using a chemical coprecipitation method. The magnetic biochar exhibited a good magnetic separability and environmental security. The maximum sulfadiazine (SDZ) and norfloxacin (NOR) removal efficiencies were 94.8% and 92.3% at pH 4 and 25 °C with adsorbent dosage of 2.5 g/L, respectively. When antibiotic concentrations ranged from 5 to 50 mg/L, the theoretical maximum adsorption capacities of SDZ and NOR were 16.7 mg/g and 25.8 mg/g, respectively. The Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models could better describe the adsorption process of both antibiotics, implying the monolayer chemical adsorption. The thermodynamic analysis indicated that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The ionic strength had no significant effect on the adsorption behavior of either antibiotic. Combined with BET, FTIR, and XPS results, the dominant mechanisms for SDZ and NOR adsorption were pore filling, π-π electron-donor-acceptor interaction, hydrogen bonds and surface complexation. Moreover, Lewis acid-base interaction also contributed to SDZ adsorption.

Abstract
In recent years, the increasing detection of emerging pollutants (particularly antibiotics, such as sulfonamides) in agricultural soils and water bodies has raised growing concern about related environmental and health problems. In the current research, sulfadiazine (SDZ) adsorption was studied for three raw and chemically modified clays. The experiments were carried out for increasing doses of the antibiotic (0, 1, 5, 10, 20, and 40 μmol L-1) at ambient temperature and natural pH with a contact time of 24 h. The eventual fitting to Freundlich, Langmuir and Linear adsorption models, as well as residual concentrations of antibiotics after adsorption, was assessed. The results obtained showed that one of the clays (HJ1) adsorbed more SDZ (reaching 99.9 % when 40 μmol L-1 of SDZ were added) than the other clay materials, followed by the acid-activated AM clay (which reached 99.4 % for the same SDZ concentration added). The adsorption of SDZ followed a linear adsorption isotherm, suggesting that hydrophobic interactions, rather than cation exchange, played a significant role in SDZ retention. Concerning the adsorption data, the best adjustment corresponded to the Freundlich model. The highest Freundlich KF scores were obtained for the AM acid-treated and raw HJ1 clays (606.051 and 312.969 Ln μmol1-n kg-1, respectively). The Freundlich n parameter ranged between 0.047 and 1.506. Regarding desorption, the highest value corresponded to the AM clay, being generally <10 % for raw clays, <8 % for base-activated clays, and <6 % for acid-activated clays. Chemical modifications contributed to improve the adsorption capacity of the AM clay, especially when the highest concentrations of the antibiotic were added. The results of this research can be considered relevant as regard environmental and public health assessment since they estimate the feasibility of three Tunisian clays in SDZ removal from aqueous solutions.

Tetracycline adsorption/desorption by raw and activated Tunisian clays. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 242:117536.

Abstract
Clay-based adsorbents have applications in environmental remediation, particularly in the removal of emerging pollutants such as antibiotics. Taking that into account, we studied the adsorption/desorption process of tetracycline (TC) using three raw and acid- or base-activated clays (AM, HJ1 and HJ2) collected, respectively, from Aleg (Mazzouna), El Haria (Jebess, Maknessy), and Chouabine (Jebess, Maknessy) formations, located in the Maknessy-Mazzouna basin, center-western of Tunisia. The main physicochemical properties of the clays were determined using standard procedures, where the studied clays presented a basic pH (8.39-9.08) and a high electrical conductivity (446-495 dS m-1). Their organic matter contents were also high (14-20%), as well as the values of the effective cation exchange capacity (80.65-97.45 cmolckg-1). In the exchange complex, the predominant cations were Na and Ca, in the case of clays HJ1 and AM, while Mg and Ca were dominant in the HJ2 clay. The sorption experimental setup consisted in performing batch tests, using 0.5 g of each clay sample, adding the selected TC concentrations, then carrying out quantification of the antibiotic by means of HPL-UV equipment. Raw clays showed high adsorption potential for TC (close to 100%) and very low desorption (generally less than 5%). This high adsorption capacity was also present in the clays after being activated with acid or base, allowing them to adsorb TC in a rather irreversible way for a wide range of pH (3.3-10) and electrical conductivity values (3.03-495 dS m-1). Adsorption experimental data were studied as regards their fitting to the Freundlich, Langmuir, Linear and Sips isotherms, being the Sips model the most appropriate to explain the adsorption of TC in these clays (natural or activated). These results could help to improve the overall knowledge on the application of new low-cost methods, using clay based adsorbents, to reduce risks due to emerging pollutants (and specifically TC) affecting the environment.

Abstract
The coexistence of heavy metals and antibiotics in the environment always results in greater toxicity compared to the individual precursors. Therefore, efficient and economic technology for the simultaneous removal of antibiotics and heavy metals is essential. Herein, litchi leaves biochar carbonized at 550 °C (L550) demonstrated high efficiency in co-removal of CTC (1838.1 mmol/kg) and Cu (II) (1212.9 mmol/kg) within wide range of pH (pH 4-7). Ionic strength obviously enhanced the Cu (II) removal but showed no significant effect on CTC removal. Although Al3+ and HPO42- decreased the adsorption capacities of CTC and Cu (II) on L550, the coexistence of Na+, K+, Mg2+, Cl-, NO3-, CO32- and SO42- showed a negligible effect on the simultaneous removal of CTC and Cu (II). Moreover, the adsorption capacities of CTC and Cu (II) on L550 were excellent in the river water, tap water, and lake water. In addition to electrostatic interactions, ion exchange governed Cu (II) adsorption, while surface complexation played a key role in CTC adsorption on L550. Our results demonstrated that litchi leaves biochar could be a promising adsorbent for remediating multi-contaminated environments.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TCC) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) are two of the most consumed antibiotics for human therapies and bacterial infection treatments in aquafarming fields, but their accumulative residues can result in negative effects on water and aquatic microorganisms. Removal techniques are therefore required to purify water before use. Herein, we concentrate on adsorptive removal of TCC and SDZ using cobalt@carbon nanotubes (Co@CNTs) derived from Co-ZIF-67. The presence of CNTs on the edge of nanocomposites was observed. Taguchi orthogonal array was designed with four variables including initial concentration (5-20 mg L-1), dosage (0.05-0.2 g L-1), time (60-240 min), and pH (2-10). Concentration and pH were found to be main contributors to adsorption of tetracycline and sulfadiazine, respectively. The optimum condition was found at concentration 5 mg L-1, dosage 0.2 g L-1, contact time 240 min, and pH 7 for both TCC and SDZ removals. Confirmation tests showed that Co@CNTs-700 removed 99.6% of TCC and 97.3% of SDZ with small errors (3-5.5%). Moreover, the kinetic and isotherm were studied, which kinetic and isotherm data were best fitted with pseudo second-order model and Langmuir. Maximum adsorption capacity values for TCC and SDZ were determined at 118.4-174.1 mg g-1 for 180 min. We also proposed the main role of interactions such as hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and electrostatic attraction in the adsorption of antibiotics. With high adsorption performance, Co@CNTs-700 is expected to remove antibiotics efficiently from wastewater.

Abstract
Due to increasing antibiotic pollution in the water environment, green and efficient adsorbents are urgently needed to solve this problem. Here we prepare magnetic bamboo-based activated carbon (MDBAC) through delignification and carbonization using ZnCl2 as activator, resulting in production of an activated carbon with large specific surface area (1388.83 m2 g-1). The influencing factors, such as solution pH, initial sulfadiazine (SD) concentration, temperature, and contact time, were assessed in batch adsorption experiments. The Langmuir isotherm model demonstrated that MDBAC adsorption capacity on SD was 645.08 mg g-1 at its maximum, being higher than majority of previously reported adsorbents. In SD adsorption, the kinetic adsorption process closely followed the pseudo-second kinetic model, and the thermodynamic adsorption process was discovered to be exothermic and spontaneous in nature. The MDBAC exhibited excellent physicochemical stability, facile magnetic recovery and acceptable recyclability properties. Moreover, the synergistic interactions between MDBAC and SD mainly involved electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and chelation.

Phosphoric acid-activated biochar derived from sunflower seed husk: Selective antibiotic adsorption behavior and mechanism. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2023; 371:128593. [PMID: 36634881 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.128593] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, the unnecessary overuse of antibiotics has increased globally, resulting in antibiotic contamination of water, which has become a significant environmental concern. This study aims to examine the adsorption behavior of antibiotics (Tetracycline TC, Ciprofloxacin CIP, Ibuprofen IBP, and Sulfamethoxazole SMX) onto H3PO4-activated sunflower seed husk biochar (PSF). The results demonstrated that H3PO4 could enhance the specific surface area (378.8 m2/g) and create a mesoporous structure of biochar. The adsorption mechanism was investigated using kinetic models, isotherms, and thermodynamics. The maximum adsorption capacities (qmax) of TC, CIP, SMX, and IBP are 429.3, 361.6, 251.3, and 251.1 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption mechanism of antibiotics on PSF was governed by complex mechanisms, including chemisorption, external diffusion, and intraparticle diffusion. This research provides an environmentally friendly method for utilizing one of the agricultural wastes for the removal of a variety of antibiotics from the aquatic environment.

Competitive adsorption analysis of antibiotics removal from multi-component systems using chemically activated spent tea waste: effect of operational parameters, kinetics, and equilibrium study.

Abstract
In this study, spent tea powder waste was chemically treated for the synthesis of adsorbent using two activating agents, i.e., sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid, to obtain sulfuric acid activated carbon (SAC) and phosphoric acid activated carbon (PAC). The performance of PAC and SAC for the sorption of tetracycline (TCY) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) antibiotics from mono-component (SDZ/TCY) and multi-component (SDZ + TCY) adsorption systems was investigated. Synergistic and antagonistic effects were studied in removing target pollutants in SDZ + TCY systems. Kinetic and equilibrium studies were modeled by different kinetic and isotherm models. The adsorption capacity was assessed using Langmuir's competitive model in a [Formula: see text]. Pseudo-first-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models best fit the experimental kinetic and equilibrium data to remove antibiotics. The Langmuir's maximum adsorption capacity (qm) of PAC for the removal of SDZ and TCY in a [Formula: see text] was found to be 16.75 and 10.87 mg/g, and qm of SAC for the removal of SDZ and TCY was found to be 24.69 and 23.20 mg/g, respectively. In SDZ + TCY multi-component system, adsorption of TCY was synergistic in nature for both PAC and SAC. Sorption of SDZ displayed an antagonistic effect in the SDZ + TCY system for both SAC and PAC. In conclusion, the activated carbons synthesized from spent tea waste could be effectively adopted for the simultaneous adsorption of SDZ and TCY from multi-component systems.

Abstract
Herein, novel composite materials were prepared by intercalating functional pillars, i.e., pentafluorobenzene (PFB) and sodium 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzoate (PFBS), into graphene oxide (GO) sheets. It led to forming size hives and increased availability of intrinsic area of GO. The synthesized materials (GO-PFB and GO-PFBS) were investigated as adsorbents to eliminate sulfadiazine (SD) from aqueous solutions. The adsorption capacities of GO-PFBS (1002.21 μmol/g) and GO-PFB (564.17 μmol/g) were 6.37 and 3.59 times higher than that of GO (157.21 μmol/g), respectively. The adsorption of SD onto GO-PFBS decreased with increasing solution pH. Density functional theory (DFT) results revealed that the SD adsorption onto the adsorbents was exothermic, and the introduction of the carboxylate groups showed lower binding energy. It was found that hydrophobic interaction fully participates in the adsorption process, and the electrostatic complementation of hydrogen bonding further enhances the SD adsorption. Obtained results showed that intercalating functional rigid molecules as pillars to support GO sheets could improve its adsorption behavior.
