A waste-to-wealth conversion of plastic bottles into effective carbon-based adsorbents for removal of tetracycline antibiotic from water. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 255:119144. [PMID: 38751006 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.119144] [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: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 05/06/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
Currently, plastic waste and antibiotic wastewater are two of the most critical environmental problems, calling for urgent measures to take. A waste-to-wealth strategy for the conversion of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottles into value-added materials such as carbon composite is highly recommended to clean wastewater contaminated by antibiotics. Inspired by this idea, we develop a novel PET-AC-ZFO composite by incorporating PET plastic-derived KOH-activated carbon (AC) with ZnFe2O4 (ZFO) particles for adsorptive removal of tetracycline (TTC). PET-derived carbon (PET-C), KOH-activated PET-derived carbon (PET-AC), and PET-AC-ZFO were characterized using physicochemical analyses. Central composite design (CCD) was used to obtain a quadratic model by TTC concentration (K), adsorbent dosage (L), and pH (M). PET-AC-ZFO possessed micropores (d ≈ 2 nm) and exceptionally high surface area of 1110 m2 g-1. Nearly 90% TTC could be removed by PET-AC-ZFO composite. Bangham kinetic and Langmuir isotherm were two most fitted models. Theoretical maximum TTC adsorption capacity was 45.1 mg g-1. This study suggested the role of hydrogen bonds, pore-filling interactions, and π-π interactions as the main interactions of the adsorption process. Thus, a strategy for conversion of PET bottles into PET-AC-ZFO can contribute to both plastic recycling and antibiotic wastewater mitigation.

Abstract
Antibiotic residues persist in the environment and represent serious health hazards; thus, it is important to develop sensitive and effective detection techniques. This paper presents a bio-inspired way to make water-soluble fluorescent polymer carbon dots (PCDs@PVA) by heating biomass precursors and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) together. For example, the synthesized PCDs@PVA are very stable with enhanced emission intensity. This property was observed in a wide range of environmental conditions, including those with changing temperatures, pH levels, UV light, and ionic strength. PCDs@PVA detected the antibiotic chlortetracycline (CTCs) with great selectivity against structurally related compounds and a low detection limit of 20 nM, demonstrating outstanding sensitivity and specificity. We confirmed the sensor's practical application through real sample analysis, yielding recovery rates of 98%-99% in samples of milk, honey, and river water. The synthesized PCDs@PVA fluorescence sensor was successfully used for CTCs detection in real samples.

Biogas slurry-derived dissolved organic matter inhibited oxytetracycline adsorption by tropical agricultural soils. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 948:174785. [PMID: 39009170 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.174785] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2024] [Revised: 07/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024]
Abstract
The increasing presence of oxytetracycline (OTC) in agricultural soils has raised global environmental concerns. We investigated the environmental behavior and fate of OTC in two types of tropical agricultural soils, focusing on the impact of dissolved organic matter (DOM) from biogas slurry. Techniques such as three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix fluorescence spectroscopy (3D-EEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (UV-vis) were used to explore the adsorption mechanisms. Our findings revealed that biogas slurry-derived DOM decreased the OTC adsorption on soils and extended the time to reach adsorption equilibrium. Specifically, the equilibrium adsorption of OTC by the two soils decreased by 19.41 and 15.32 %, respectively. These adsorption processes were effectively modelled by Elovich, intraparticle diffusion, linear, and Freundlich thermodynamic models. Thermodynamic parameters suggested that OTC adsorption onto soils was spontaneous and endothermic, with competitive interactions between biogas slurry-derived DOM and OTC molecules intensifying at higher DOM concentrations. The adsorption mechanisms were governed by both physical and chemical processes. Furthermore, the presence of Ca2+ and Na+ ions significantly inhibited OTC adsorption. These insights advanced our understanding of the fate and risk of OTC in soil environments influenced by DOM, contributing to more informed agricultural and environmental management practices.

Magnetization and ZIF-67 modification of Aspergillus flavus biomass for tetracycline removal from aqueous solutions: A stable and efficient composite. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 252:118931. [PMID: 38615794 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118931] [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: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
In the present work, the biomass of Aspergillus flavus (AF) was modified using magnetic nanoparticles MnFe2O4 and metal-organic framework of ZIF-67, and its ability to remove tetracycline antibiotic (TCH) was investigated. With the help of physicochemical tests, AF biomass modification with ZIF-67 and MnFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles was confirmed. Based on the BET value, AF-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 (139.83 m2/g) has a higher surface value than AF (0.786 m2/g) and AF/MnFe2O4 (17.504 m2/g). Also, the magnetic saturation value revealed that the modified biomass can be isolated from the treated solution using a simple magnetic field. Maximum TCH elimination (99.04%) using AF-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 was obtained at pH 7, adsorber mass of 1 g/L, adsorption time of 40 min, and TCH content of 10 mg/L. The thermodynamic study indicated that the TCH abatement using the desired composite is spontaneous and exothermic. The experimental results showed that the adsorption process is compatible with the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Freundlich model. The maximum adsorption capacity for AF, AF-MnFe2O4, and AF-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 was quantified to be 9.75 mg/g, 25.59 mg/g, and 43.87 mg/g, respectively. The reusability of the desired adsorbers was examined in up to 8 steps. The outcomes showed that the adsorbers can be used several times in TCH elimination. The provided composite can remove TCH from hospital wastewater, so it can be suggested for use in water and wastewater treatment works.

Abstract
The extensive use of tetracyclines (TCs) has led to their widespread distribution in the environment, causing serious harm to ecosystems because of their toxicity and resistance to decomposition. Adsorption is presently the principal approach to dispose of TCs, and the development of excellent adsorbents is crucial to TC removal. Herein, a novel amorphous cobalt carbonate hydroxide (ACCH) was successfully prepared by a one-step solvothermal method, which was identified as Co(CO3)0·63(OH)0.74·0.07H2O. The ultimate adsorption capacity of ACCH for TC reaches 2746 mg g-1, and the excellent adsorption performance can be maintained over a wide pH (3.0-11.0) and temperature (10-70 °C) range. Moreover, ACCH also exhibits a wonderful adsorption performance for other organic contaminants, such as ciprofloxacin and Rhodamine B. The TC adsorption process can be reasonably described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, intraparticle model and Langmuir isothermal model. The experimental results in this work suggest that the excellent adsorption performance of ACCH is ascribed to the large specific surface area, alkaline characteristics and numerous functional groups of ACCH. Accordingly, this work provides a promising strategy for the development of highly-efficient adsorbents and demonstrates their application prospects in environmental remediation.

Abstract
Adsorption is considered to be one of the most effective methods to remove radioiodine from the solution. However, developing highly efficient adsorbents and the rapid recovery of the used adsorbents is still a challenge. Here, a series of Cu/Fe3O4 bimetallic mutual-doping magnetic aerogels (Cu/Fe3O4-BMMA) were synthesized. Based on the in-situ bimetallic co-gelation process, the high dispersion of Cu in the aerogel was realized, providing conditions for the efficient elimination of I2. The Fe3+ in the initial gel was reduced to magnetic Fe3O4 during the preparation process, allowing for the quick recovery of the adsorbent through the application of a magnetic field. The adsorption experiments showed that Cu/Fe3O4-BMMA has good I2 adsorption capacity (631.3 mg/g) and fast capture kinetics (equilibrium time < 30 min). In addition, Cu/Fe3O4-BMMA was able to effectively remove trace I2 in the solution from ppm level (1.0 ppm) down to ppb level (≤30 ppb). The adsorbed I2 was converted into stable CuI, avoiding secondary pollution due to desorption. Overall, this study provides a potentially efficient iodine capture material for long-term decay storage of radioactive iodine.

Abstract
In the present study, starch/zeolitic imidazole framework-67 (ZIF-67) modified magnetic montmorillonite nanocomposite adsorbent to remove tetracycline (TC) as an emerging antibiotic-based contaminant from aqueous media. The surface properties of the adsorbents were investigated using FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDX-Map, XPS, TEM, BET, and VSM analysis. The specific surface area of MMT, St/MMT-MnFe2O4, and St/MMT-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 magnetic nanocomposite samples were found to be 15.63, 20.54, and 588.41 m2/g, respectively. The influence of pH, adsorbent amount, initial TC concentration, temperature, contact time, and coexisting ions on TC elimination was explored in a batch adsorption system. The kinetic and equilibrium data were well matched with the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models, respectively. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacities of TC were obtained to be 40.24, 66.1, and 135.2 mg/g by MMT, St/MMT-MnFe2O4, and St/MMT-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 magnetic nanocomposite adsorbents, respectively. Also, thermodynamic studies illustrated that the TC adsorption process is exothermic and spontaneous. Furthermore, the magnetic nanocomposite adsorbent St/MMT-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 showed good reusability and could be recycled for up to five cycles. This excellent adsorption performance, coupled with the facile separation of the magnetic nanocomposite, gave St/MMT-MnFe2O4-ZIF-67 a high potential for TC removal from aqueous media.

Abstract
There is a growing incidence in the presence of emergent pollutants like the pesticides and pharmaceuticals in water bodies. The matter of environmental concern is their synthetic and persistent nature which has resulted in induced toxicity/damaging effect to the vital functioning of the different organs in the aquatic community. Traditional adsorbents have exhibited limitations like low stability and minimum reuse ability. Composites of such adsorbents with polysaccharides have demonstrated distinct features like improved surface area, porosity, adsorptivity; improved reusability and structural integrity; improved mechanical strength, thermal stability when applied for the removal of the emergent pollutants. The biocompatibility and biodegradability of such fabricated composites is established; thereby making the water treatment process cost effective, sustainable and environmentally friendly. The present review has dealt with an in-depth, up-dated literature compilation of traditional as well as polysaccharide based composite adsorbents and addressed their performance evaluation for the removal of pharmaceuticals and pesticides from wastewater. A comparative study has revealed the merits of polysaccharide based composites and discussions have been made with a focus on future research directions in the related area.

Abstract
Metal-organic frames (MOFs) have been recognized as one of the best candidates in the remediation of aqueous contaminants, while the fragile powder shape restricts the practical implementation. In this work, a shapeable, rebuildable, and multifunctional MOF composite (MIL-53@CF) was prepared from MIL-53 (Fe) and cellulose fiber (CF) using a simple ultrasonic method for adsorption and photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater. The results showed MIL-53(Fe) crystals were uniformly growth on CF surfaces and bonded with surface nanofibrils of CF through physical crosslinking and hydrogen bonding. Because of the high bonding strength, the MIL-53@CF composite exhibited an excellent compressive strength (3.53 MPa). More importantly, the MIL-53@CF composite was rebuildable through mechanical destruction followed by re-ultrasonication, suggesting the excellent reusability of MIL-53@CF for water remediation. The MIL-53@CF composite also had high adsorption capacities for methyl orange (884.6 mg·g-1), methylene blue (198.3 mg·g-1), and tetracycline (106.4 mg·g-1). MIL-53@CF composite could degrade TC through photocatalysis. The photocatalytic degradation mechanism was attributed to the Fe(II)/Fe(III) transform cycle reaction of MIL-53 crystal located on MIL-53@CF. Furthermore, the mechanical property and remoldability of MIL-53@CF composite increased its practicability. Comprehensively, MIL-53@CF composite provided a possible strategy to practically apply MOF in the remediation of aqueous contaminants.

Abstract
Iron (Fe)/iron oxide-modified biochar has practicable adsorption capability for phosphorus (P), but it is expensive. In this study, we synthesized novel low-cost and eco-friendly adsorbents co-pyrolyzed biochars using Fe-rich red mud (RM) and peanut shell (PS) wastes via a one-step pyrolysis process for removing P from pickling wastewater. The preparation conditions (heating rate, pyrolysis temperature, and feedstock ratio) and P adsorption behaviors were systematically investigated. In addition, a series of characterization and approximate site energy distribution (ASED) analyses were conducted to understand the P adsorption mechanisms. The magnetic biochar (BR7P3) with m (RM):m (PS) of 7:3 prepared at 900°C and 10 °C/min had a high surface area (164.43 m2/g) and different abundant ions (including Fe3+, and Al3+). In addition, BR7P3 exhibited the best P removal capability (142.6 mg/g). The Fe2O3 from RM was successfully reduced to Fe0, which was easily oxidized as Fe3+ to precipitate with H2PO4-. The electrostatic effect, Fe-O-P bonding, and surface precipitation were the main mechanisms of P removal. ASED analyses revealed that high distribution frequency and solution temperature led to a high P adsorption rate of the adsorbent. Therefore, this study provides new insight into the waste-to-wealth strategy by transforming PS and RM into mineral-biomass biochar with excellent P adsorption capability and environmental adaptability.

Li L, Ni J, Zhu Z, Zuo X. Simultaneous ammonium and phosphate removal with Mg-loaded chitosan carbonized microsphere: Influencing factors and removal mechanism. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 228:115850. [PMID: 37024031 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.115850] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 03/25/2023] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
A novel Mg-loaded chitosan carbonized microsphere (MCCM) was prepared for simultaneous adsorption of ammonium and phosphate in this study, through the investigation of preparation procedures, addition ratio, and preparation temperature. Pollutants removals by MCCM were more acceptable with 64.71% for ammonium and 99.26% for phosphorus, compared with chitosan carbonized microspheres (CCM), Mg-loaded chitosan hydrogel beads (MCH) and MgCl2·6H2O. Addition ratio of 0.6:1 (mchitosan: mMgCl2) and preparation temperature of 400 °C in MCCM preparation were responsible for pollutant removal and yield. The effect analysis of MCCM dosage, solution pH, pollutant concentration, adsorption mode and coexisting ions on the removal for both ammonium and phosphate indicated that pollutants removals were increased with increasing MCCM dosages, and achieved the peak at pH 8.5, but presented to be stable with Na+, K+, Ca2+, Cl-, NO3-, CO32- and SO42-, except for Fe3+.Adsorption mechanisms discussion implied that simultaneous ammonium and phosphate removal with MCCM was attributed to struvite precipitation, ion exchange, hydrogen bonding, electrostatic attraction and Mg-P complexation, suggesting that MCCM presents a new way for simultaneous concentrated ammonium and phosphate removal in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
In this study, chitosan-modified bentonite was synthesized using the coprecipitation method. When the Na2CO3 content was 4% (weight of soil) and the mass ratio of chitosan to bentonite was 1:5, the adsorption performance of the chitosan/bentonite composite was best. The adsorbent was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller measurement. Various characterization results demonstrate that chitosan successfully entered the bentonite interlayer and increased layer spacing but did not modify bentonite's laminar mesoporous structure, and the -CH3 and -CH2 groups of chitosan appeared on chitosan-modified bentonite. Tetracycline was used as the target pollutant in the static adsorption experiment. The adsorption capacity was 19.32 mg/g under optimal conditions. The adsorption process was more consistent with the Freundlich model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating that it was a nonmonolayer chemisorption process. The adsorption process is a spontaneous, endothermic, entropy-increasing process, according to thermodynamic characteristics.

Abstract
Water quality is deteriorating continuously as increasing levels of toxic inorganic and organic contaminants mostly discharging into the aquatic environment. Removal of such pollutants from the water system is an emerging research area. During the past few years use of biodegradable and biocompatible natural additives has attracted considerable attention to alleviate pollutants from wastewater. The chitosan and its composites emerged as a promising adsorbents due to their low price, abundance, amino, and hydroxyl groups, as well as their potential to remove various toxins from wastewater. However, a few challenges associated with its practical use include lack of selectivity, low mechanical strength, and solubility in acidic medium. Therefore, several approaches for modification have been explored to improve the physicochemical properties of chitosan for wastewater treatment. Chitosan nanocomposites found effective for the removal of metals, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, microplastics from the wastewaters. Nanoparticle doped with chitosan in the form of nano-biocomposites has recently gained much attention and proven a successful tool for water purification. Hence, applying chitosan-based adsorbents with numerous modifications is a cutting-edge approach to eliminating toxic pollutants from aquatic systems with the global aim of making potable water available worldwide. This review presents an overview of distinct materials and methods for developing novel chitosan-based nanocomposites for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Nowadays, the fast expansion of the economy and industry results in a considerable volume of wastewater being released, severely affecting water quality and the environment. It has a significant influence on the biological environment, both terrestrial and aquatic plant and animal life, and human health. Therefore, wastewater treatment is a global issue of great concern. Nanocellulose's hydrophilicity, easy surface modification, rich functional groups, and biocompatibility make it a candidate material for the preparation of aerogels. The third generation of aerogel is a nanocellulose-based aerogel. It has unique advantages such as a high specific surface area, a three-dimensional structure, is biodegradable, has a low density, has high porosity, and is renewable. It has the opportunity to replace traditional adsorbents (activated carbon, activated zeolite, etc.). This paper reviews the fabrication of nanocellulose-based aerogels. The preparation process is divided into four main steps: the preparation of nanocellulose, gelation of nanocellulose, solvent replacement of nanocellulose wet gel, and drying of nanocellulose wet aerogel. Furthermore, the research progress of the application of nanocellulose-based aerogels in the adsorption of dyes, heavy metal ions, antibiotics, organic solvents, and oil-water separation is reviewed. Finally, the development prospects and future challenges of nanocellulose-based aerogels are discussed.

Abstract
In recent years, the global warming trend is still increasing due to CO2 emissions from various sources, such as electricity, heat production, industry, and transportation. In the vanadium industry, the vanadium bearing shale is of low grade, and the extraction of the required elemental vanadium produces large quantities of vanadium tailings (VTs). Both the roasting pretreatment of vanadium shale during vanadium extraction and the high-temperature calcination process for the preparation of vanadium products generate large amounts of CO2 gas. Therefore, it is particularly important to find an effective and environmentally friendly method for the treatment of vanadium tailings and CO2 generated by the vanadium industry. In this study, a potential method for the indirect carbonation of low calcium VTs under atmospheric pressure conditions was investigated. The carbonation reaction was investigated for different ammonia addition factors and different introduced CO2 concentrations and temperatures. The carbonation experiments showed that under the conditions of coefficient of ammonia addition of 1.4, reaction time of 60 min and reaction temperature of 60 °C, the utilization rate of calcium in VTs reached 97.9% and the CO2 uptake of VTs at 0.073 g-CO2/g, indicating that the carbonation of vanadium with low-calcium VTs was effective. The carbonation product was analyzed and measured using TG, XRD, and SEM-EDS, and it was discovered to be CaCO3, confirming the feasibility of carbonation reaction with vanadium tailings. Furthermore, the characterization of the carbonation product confirmed the mechanism and safety of the carbonation reaction, laying the groundwork for future applications.

Abstract
This work presents efficient tetracycline (TC) antibiotics adsorption using a functional porous phosphate/carbonate composite (PCC). The PCC was fabricated by anion-exchange of phosphate on the surface of vaterite-phase calcium carbonate particle scaffolds. The PCC, having dense nanoporous network coverage with large surface area and pore volume, exhibited excellent TC adsorption in solution. Its adsorption isotherm fitted well to the Freundlich model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 118.72 mg/g. The adsorption process was spontaneous, endothermic, and followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. From the XPS analysis, the hydrogen bonding and surface complexation were the key interactions in the process. In addition, a colorimetric TC detection method was developed considering its complexation with phosphate ions, originating from PCC dissolution, during adsorption. The method was used to detect TC in mg/L concentrations in water samples. Thus, the multifunctional PCC exhibited potential for use in TC removal and environmental remediation.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 862:160860.

Abstract
Biochar (BC) derived from orange peels was modified using LaCl3 to enhance its tetracycline (TC) adsorption capacity. SEM-EDS, FT-IR, XRD, and BET were used to characterize the physiochemical characteristics of La-modified biochar (La-BC). Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of several variables like pyrolysis temperature, adsorbent dosage, initial pH, and coexisting ions on the adsorption of TC by La-BC. XPS and density functional theory (DFT) were used to elucidate the TC adsorption mechanism of La-BC. The results demonstrated that La was uniformly coated on the surface of the La-BC. The physiochemical characteristics of La-BC highly depended on pyrolysis temperature. Higher temperature increased the specific surface area and functional groups of La-BC, thus enhancing its TC adsorption capacity. La-BC prepared at 700 °C (BC@La-700) achieved the maximum adsorption capacity of 143.20 mg/g, which was 6.8 and 4.6 times higher than that of BC@La-500 and BC@La-600, respectively. The mechanisms of TC adsorption by La-BC were most accurately described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Furthermore, the adsorption isotherm of La-BC was consistent with the Freundlich model. BC@La-700 achieved good TC adsorption efficiencies even at a wide pH range (pH 4-10). Humic acid significantly inhibited TC adsorption by La-BC. The presence of coexisting ions (NH4+, Ca2+, NO3-) did not significantly affect the adsorption capacity of La-BC, particularly BC@La-700. Moreover, BC@La-700 also exhibited the best recycling performance, which achieved relative high adsorption capacity even after 5 cycles. The XPS results showed that π-π bonds, oxygen-containing functional groups, and La played a major role in the adsorption of TC on La-BC. The result of DFT showed that the adsorption energy of La-BC was the greatest than that of other functional groups on biochar. Collectively, our findings provide a theoretical basis for the development of La-BC based materials to remove TC from wastewater.

Abstract
The contamination of the aquatic environment with emerging micro-pollutants is a serious global concern. The aim of this investigation was to synthesize novel functionalized material (BNAPTES) precursor to natural bentonite in a single pot facile synthetic route. The material was utilized for efficient and selective removal of tetracycline (TC) and triclosan (TCS) in aqueous wastes. The grafting of silane was confirmed with the FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infra-Red) analysis and the EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray) analysis showed the incorporation of amino group with the bentonite. The structural changes of clay due to silane grafting were studied with the help of XRD (X-ray Diffraction) and BET (Brunner-Emmett-Teller) surface area analyses. Batch adsorption studies showed that functionalized clay significantly increased the selectivity and adsorption capacity of bentonite for TC and TCS. The Langmuir monolayer adsorption capacity was found to be 15.36 and 17.15 mg/g for TC and TCS, respectively. The rapid uptake of TC and TCS by functionalized material followed pseudo-second-rate kinetics. Further, a total of 78% of TC and 73% of TCS were removed within 5 min of contact and the adsorption equilibrium was achieved within 120 min. The influence of background electrolytes and co-existing ions indicated that TC and TCS were selective towards BNAPTES. The loading capacities of the column packed with BNAPTES were found to be 56.00 and 44.42 mg/g for TC and TCS, respectively. Further, BNAPTES was found efficient even in real water treatment since the attenuation of TC and TCS was not affected significantly in the real water matrix.

Abstract
In the present study, chitosan (C), walnut (W), and almond shell (A) powder adsorbent (in different combinations as almond shells:walnut:chitosan 2:1:1 (AWC), chitosan:almond shell:walnut 2:1:1 (CAW), and walnut:almond shells:chitosan 2:1:1 (WAC)) powder were combined in different ratios to produce low-cost composite adsorbent beads for the removal of antibiotics gatifloxacin (GAT) from synthetic wastewater. The beads were characterized by a scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectrum spectrophotometer, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The batch adsorption approach was employed to remove the antibiotic from the water. Moreover, isotherm and kinetics were conducted to illustrate the adsorption mechanism. Parameters like the effect of the adsorbent's dosage, pH, initial concentration, and contact time on antibiotic adsorption were evaluated. Adsorption percentage increased slightly with the increase in adsorbent dosage. The optimum pH for GAT adsorption on beads was 5-7. In addition, adsorption increased with initial antibiotic concentration and time rise. The adsorption isotherm data were successfully fitted to Langmuir isotherm for AWC and CAW beads, while WAC beads followed the Freundlich isotherm. The highest adsorption was attained at pH 5 on CAW beads and pH 7 on AWC and WAC beads. The optimal contact time for equilibrium studies was 120 min for all types of beads. The adsorption isotherm data in AWC beads fit well with the Langmuir model and Freundlich adsorption for CAW and WAC beads. The rate of adsorption on beads follows Lagergren pseudo-second-order kinetics. The results indicate that prepared combination beads can be used to remove antibiotics from wastewater.

Bamboo Nanocellulose/Montmorillonite Nanosheets/Polyethyleneimine Gel Adsorbent for Methylene Blue and Cu(II) Removal from Aqueous Solutions. Gels 2023; 9:gels9010040.

Abstract
In recent years, the scarcity of pure water resources has received a lot of attention from society because of the increasing amount of pollution from industrial waste. It is very important to use low-cost adsorbents with high-adsorption performance to reduce water pollution. In this work, a gel adsorbent with a high-adsorption performance on methylene blue (MB) and Cu(II) was prepared from bamboo nanocellulose (BCNF) (derived from waste bamboo paper) and montmorillonite nanosheet (MMTNS) cross-linked by polyethyleneimine (PEI). The resulting gel adsorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS), etc. The results indicated that the MB and Cu(II) adsorption capacities of the resulting gel adsorbent increased with the solution pH, contact time, initial concentration, and temperature before equilibrium. The adsorption processes of MB and Cu(II) fitted well with the fractal-like pseudo-second-order model. The maximal adsorption capacities on MB and Cu(II) calculated by the Sips model were 361.9 and 254.6 mg/g, respectively. The removal of MB and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions mainly included electrostatic attraction, ion exchange, hydrogen bonding interaction, etc. These results suggest that the resulting gel adsorbent is an ideal material for the removal of MB and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
In our work, the transition-metal-oxide precursor (TMO@BC, M = Fe, Co, Ni) has been loaded on the pollen carbon by the hydrothermal method and annealed at different temperatures to generate a composite material of metal oxide and pollen carbon in this study, which can effectively prevent agglomeration caused by a small size and magnetism. The XRD patterns of the samples showed that the as-synthesized metal oxides were γ-Fe2O3, CoO, and NiO. In the 20 mg/L methyl orange adsorption experiment, the adsorption amount of CoO@C at 500 ℃ reached 19.32 mg/g and the removal rate was 96.61%. Therefore, CoO@C was selected for the adsorption correlation-model-fitting analysis, which was in line with the secondary reaction. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R2: 0.9683-0.9964), the intraparticle diffusion model, and the Freundlich adsorption isotherm model indicated that the adsorption process was the result of both physical and chemical adsorptions, and the judgment was based on the electrostatic action. The adsorption and removal efficiency of ciprofloxacin (CIP) by changing the pH of the reaction was about 80%, so the electrostatic attraction worked, but not the main factor. Recovered by an external magnetic field, the three-time recycling efficiency was still maintained at more than 80%. This novel biomass-derived magnetic porous carbon material embedded with transition-metal-oxide nanoparticles is highly promising for many applications, especially in the field of environmental remediation.

The swelling performance of raw and modified bentonite of geosynthetic clay liner as the leachate barrier exposed to the synthetic E-waste leachate. Heliyon 2022; 8:e11937.

Abstract
Heavy metals are prevalent in electrical and electronic waste. The sealing of this type of waste disposal site is critical due to the existence of toxic materials. In this regard, Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCLs) are widely used as one of the most common engineered barriers at disposal sites. Recently, attention has been drawn to modifying the bentonite of GCL with polymers to improve barrier performance against leachate. The aim of this study was to evaluate the swelling performance of the raw and modified GCL with a hydrophilic anionic polymer called CarboxyMethyl Cellulose (CMC) with weight percentages of 8, 10, and 12 of dried bentonite against synthetic heavy metals' leachate, containing copper and zinc, simultaneously and separately, based on ASTM D5890. It was found that adding this polymer could improve the swelling rate of the GCLs. The optimum CMC rate for modified GCLs exposed to the cationic solutions, including copper and zinc, was estimated at 10%. It could also be noted that the swell index of both natural and modified bentonites against solutions, including two cations of copper and zinc, simultaneously, was more sensitive to the changes in zinc ion concentration versus copper metal concentration.

Abstract
In this study, novel aerogels of Nicandra physaloides (L.) Gaertn seed gum (NPG) and Nicandra physaloides (L.) Gaertn seed gum/Carboxymethyl chitosan (NPG/CMC) were prepared by freeze-drying method for removing tetracycline (TC) from water. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) were used to characterize structure and morphology of NPG and NPG/CMC aerogels. The average pore diameter of NPG and NPG/CMC were 3.04 and 1.2 nm, the specific surface areas were 2.67 and 0.73 m2/g, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity of NPG and NPG/CMC aerogels for TC based on Langmuir isotherm was 266.7 and 332.23 mg/g respectively. Through thermodynamic and kinetic studies, it was found that the adsorption processes of the two adsorbents were spontaneous and followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. And the process of NPG adsorption of TC was endothermic, while NPG/CMC was exothermic.

Abstract
The presence of antibiotic contaminants in aqueous environment already poses significant risks to ecological sustainability, biodiversity and human public health and safety. Therefore, it is urgent to develop practical water pollution control technologies and new materials. Here, we prepared CuO-Co3 O4 co-modified porous boron nitride fibers (P-BNFs) for the adsorption and removal of tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) in aqueous environment. The prepared adsorbents were characterized by XRD, FTIR, XPS, SEM, TEM and BET, and the adsorption behavior was explored by batch experiments. The results show that the removal percentage for doxycycline (DC) reaches 98.68 %, which was much higher than that of P-BNFs, and the modification results of P-BNFs with CuO or Co3 O4 alone. After five regeneration cycles, the removal rate of DC by CuO-Co3 O4 /P-BNFs was still as high as 89.33 %. This is promising and indicates that the prepared CuO-Co3 O4 /P-BNFs adsorbent has good renewable recycling performance and practical application prospects.

Abstract
Ibuprofen (IBU) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug released into water bodies causing toxic biological effects on living organisms. The current study aims to eliminate IBU from aqueous solutions by a novel carboxymethylcellulose/polypyrrole (CMC/PPY) composite with high removal efficiency. Pyrrole was polymerized to polypyrrole whose average size was about 20 nm on the CMC surface. The maximum removal percentage of IBU by CMC/PPY composite was optimized at initial concentration 10 mg/L, dosage 0.02 g, and pH 7 with adsorption capacity of 72.30 (mg/g) and removal of 83.17 %. IBU adsorption onto CMC/PPY theoretically fits into the Langmuir isotherm and Elovich-kinetic models. Fish and Phytotoxicity assessment were performed with zebrafish and seeds of Vigna mungo (VM) and Vigna radiata (VR). The toxicity study reveals that before adsorption, IBU shows high toxicity towards the zebrafish mortality (33 %), growth inhibition (58.52 % for VM, 60.84 % for VR), and germination (86.66 % for VM and 90 % for VR). As CMC/PPY adsorbs IBU, toxicity drastically decreases. Before adsorption, LC50 was 233.02 mg/L. After adsorption, the LC50 increases to 2325.07 mg/L as IBU molecules get adsorbed by CMC/PPY. These findings show the feasibility of preparing CMC/PPY composite to effectively remove pharmaceutical pollutant IBU from aqueous solutions with their toxicological assessment.

Abstract
Increased antibiotic use worldwide has become a major concern because of their health and environmental impacts. Since most antibiotic residues can hardly be removed from wastewater using conventional treatments, alternative methods receive great attention. Adsorption is one of the most efficient and cost-effective treatment methods for antibiotics. Among the adsorbents, clay minerals have garnered increasing attention due to their unique properties including availability, high specific surface area, low cost, cation exchange capacity, and good removal efficiency. This paper reviews the recent progress made in the use of natural and modified clay minerals for the removal of antibiotics from water. First, the sources, occurrence, removal and health effects of the antibiotics commonly encountered in water bodies are described. Antibiotic concentration levels and average removal efficiencies measured in conventional activated sludge treatment systems worldwide are also provided to better address the problem. Second, the review explores the characteristics of clay minerals as adsorbent of antibiotics and the factors affecting the adsorption. The review identifies and discusses the future trends and strategies used to increase the adsorption capacity of clay minerals by modification and combination techniques (intercalation of novel functional groups such as organocations, biopolymers and metal pillared-clay minerals, combination with biochar or thermal activation). The quantitative comparisons of clay minerals' ability for antibiotic removal are given. Some natural clay minerals have good removal potential for antibiotics, with maximum adsorption capacities over 100 mg/g. For most other adsorbents, surface modifications and combination techniques resulted in improved adsorption properties (including higher surface area, enhanced adsorption capacity, increased stability and mechanical strength). Finally, the application of these adsorbents at pilot scale, using real wastewater samples, their reuse, economic analysis and life cycle assessment are other issues that have been considered.

Abstract
In recent years, antibiotic residues in food have been of great concern to regulators and consumers. In this study, a novel fluorescent sensor based on S, N-doped carbon quantum dots (S, N-CQDs) was established for rapid detection of tetracycline antibiotics (TCs). Through the internal filter effect (IFE), QDs fluorescence can be effectively quenched by TCs, endowing it an "off" condition. Under the optimal conditions, the TC concentration in the range of 1.88-60 μmol/L had a good linear relationship with the change of QDs fluorescence intensity, and the limit of detection (LOD) was calculated as 0.56 μmol/L (S/N = 3). Furthermore, the proposed "Turn-off" sensor could be employed to quickly and accurately quantify TCs residues even in milk, honey and tap water. The recovery rate was as high as between 93.61% and 102.31%. The established sensor has great application value in the fields of food safety and drug analysis, and provides broad prospects for the future food industry.

Batch and Column Adsorption of Phosphorus by Modified Montmorillonite. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/app12115703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/10/2022]
Abstract
Phosphorus pollutants are a crucial component of water eutrophication. In this study, montmorillonite modified by Keggin Al13 and hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium (Al13-O-MMt) was used as an adsorbent to remove phosphorus from solutions and thus simulate the practice of a field trial, such as in wastewater. The ammonium molybdate spectrophotometric method was used to determine the concentrations of phosphorus in samples. In the batch experiment, phosphorus was adsorbed by original montmorillonite (MMt) and Al13-O-MMt at various pH values (6–9) to identify the effect of pH during the adsorption process. The batch adsorption results demonstrate that Al13-O-MMt can adsorb up to 93% of phosphorus at pH = 8. Six graduated amounts (0.01–0.25 g) of montmorillonite were tested at three different temperatures to determine the most suitable temperature and the minimum dosage of Al13-O-MMt needed for the adsorption of 200 mg/L phosphorus in a 30 mL solution, which was 0.1 g at 25 °C. Therefore, the adsorption capacity of Al13-O-MMt was found to be 60 mg/g. Subsequently, a column experiment was conducted. The results showed that the optimized dosage of Al13-O-MMt was 6.667 g for phosphorus adsorption with a concentration of 200 mg/L in 2000 mL solution, and the breakthrough time was 4794.67 min.

Abstract
During COVID-19 crisis, water pollution caused by pharmaceutical residuals have enormously aggravated since millions of patients worldwide are consuming tons of drugs daily. Antibiotics are the preponderance pharmaceutical pollutants in water bodies that surely cause a real threat to human life and ecosystems. The excellent characteristics of chitosan such as nontoxicity, easy functionality, biodegradability, availability in nature and the abundant hydroxyl and amine groups onto its backbone make it a promising adsorbent. Herein, we aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of recent published research papers regarding the removal of antibiotics by chitosan composite-based adsorbents. The structure, ionic form, optimum removal pH and λmax of the most common antibiotics including Tetracycline, Ciprofloxacin, Amoxicillin, Levofloxacin, Ceftriaxone, Erythromycin, Norfloxacin, Ofloxacin, Doxycycline, Cefotaxime and Sulfamethoxazole were summarized. The development of chitosan composite-based adsorbents in order to enhance their adsorption capacity, reusability and validity were presented. Moreover, the adsorption mechanisms of these antibiotics were explored to provide more information about adsorbate-adsorbent interactions. Besides the dominant factors on the adsorption process including pH, dosage, coexisting ions, etc. were discussed. Moreover, conclusions and future recommendations are provided to inspire for further researches.

Abstract
Naturally occurring Mn-rich limonite mainly composed of goethite and manganese oxides was used to remove tetracycline (TC) from the aqueous solution. The effects of dosage, initial solution pH, temperature, and coexisting anions on TC removal were investigated. Results showed that 95% of TC (30.0 mg·L-1) was removed in a wide pH range of 3.0-9.0 by limonite with high specific surface area (145.0 m2·g-1) and mesoporous structure. The presence of Cl-, NO3-, and SO42- in the studied concentration range did not influence TC removal efficiency significantly, while PO43- inhibited the adsorption of TC over limonite due to the competition with TC for active sites. Integrated with the FT-IR analysis, electrostatic interaction and complexation were proved to be the adsorption mechanisms of TC by limonite. The quenching experiments and ESR analysis revealed that singlet oxygen (1O2) also was involved in TC degradation. In addition, limonite displayed an efficient recycling performance and stability after four cycles. This study revealed that the Mn-rich limonite was a promising adsorbent for TC removal from aqueous solutions and promoted the application of natural mineral material in the environmental field.

Abstract
Veterinary antibiotics are widely used in animal agriculture. Owing to its good absorption in the gastrointestinal tract, strong tissue permeability, and long biological half-life, doxycycline (DOX) is widely used to treat bacterial infections; however, this use can pose an environmental risk. The adsorption/desorption and degradation of DOX in three agricultural soils were investigated. DOX rapidly adsorbed to the soils, with an adsorption equilibrium time of 12 h for the three soils. The Freundlich equation was used to fit the adsorption and desorption of DOX in soils. A high Freundlich affinity coefficient (KF) was obtained from Freundlich isotherms, indicating strong sorption of DOX to agricultural soils and weak mobility to aquatic environment. Soil organic matter, the clay ratio and the cation exchange capacity were significantly positively correlated with KF (P < 0.05). The half-life (DT50) of DOX degradation in the soils ranged from 2.51 to 25.52 d. Soil microorganisms, soil moisture, temperature, the initial concentration, illumination and soil texture all significantly affected the degradation of DOX in soil (P < 0.05). When 8% (w/w) manure was added, DOX degradation was significantly accelerated (P < 0.05). Biotic and abiotic factors affected the degradation of DOX in soils. These results indicated that soil properties and environmental conditions greatly affected the fate and transport of DOX into agricultural soils.

Abstract
In this study, a cleaner approach to a 'sandwich' chrome-less tanning for cattle hide upper suede leather based on polycarboxylate/montmorillonite nanocomposite (PCM) has been developed. The chromium was reduced both in tanning process and retanning process. Hydrothermal stability, mechanical strength, and organoleptic properties of the leather were closed to traditional chrome tanning. The important advantage of the cleaner tanning approach is that the chromium load in wastewater decreased from 2302 mg/L in tanning process and 2919 mg/L in retanning process to 131 and 257 mg/L, respectively. Moreover, SEM analyses demonstrated that the leather tanned by PCM achieved loose fiber structure and flaky montmorillonite deposition both in intra-triple and inter-triple helix. XRD results suggested that basic chromium sulfate and PCM may form more complexation with the helix chain of collagen fiber, resulting in structural distortion of collagen molecules without destroying the triple helical structure. EDS liner scanning indicated the distribution of chromium on the cross section of the leather. Trypsin degradation curves revealed the cleaner approach might increase the degradation of leather, and the economic analysis results showed that the tanning costs could be reduced and increased the economic benefits.

Abstract
In this study, hydrous manganese dioxide (HMO) modified poly(sodium acrylate) (PSA) hydrogel was produced for the first time to remove tetracycline(TC) and lead(Pb(II)) from water. The as-prepared composite was characterized using various techniques, such as SEM-EDS, FTIR, XRD, BET, and XPS, to elucidate the successful loading of HMO and analyze subsequent sorption mechanisms. Different influencing parameters such as adsorbent dose, initial concentration of adsorbates, reaction time, solution pH, and temperature were also investigated. The adsorption kinetic studies of both TC and Pb(II) removal indicated that equilibrium was achieved within 12 h, with respective removal rates of 91.9 and 99.5%, and the corresponding adsorption data were fitted to the second-order kinetics model. According to the adsorption isotherm studies, the sorption data of TC best fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model while the adsorption data of Pb(II) were explained by the Freundlich isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacities of both TC and Pb(II) were found to be 475.8 and 288.7 mg/g, respectively, demonstrating excellent performances of the adsorbent. The uptake capacity of PSA-HMO was significantly influenced by the level of solution pH, in which optimum adsorption amount was realized at pH 4.0 in the TC and Pb(II) systems, respectively. Thermodynamic studies showed the process of TC and Pb(II) adsorptions were endothermic and spontaneous. Overall this study elucidated that PSA-HMO composite can be a promising candidate for antibiotics and heavy metal removal in water treatment applications.

Abstract
This work dealt with a potential and effective method to reuse modified alginate beads after the removal of Cu(II) ions for efficient adsorption of tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solutions. The modified alginate beads were fabricated by a polyacrylamide (PAM) network interpenetrated in alginate-Ca2+ network (PAM/CA) decorated with polyethylene glycol as a pore-forming agent. The porous PAM/CA was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. The adsorption kinetics, isotherms, adsorption stability, and reusability studies of the adsorbent toward Cu(II) ions were scrutinized. The column performance of porous PAM/CA was tested with Cu(II)-containing electroplating wastewater. After Cu(II) adsorption, the Cu(II)-adsorbed PAM/CA (PAM/CA@Cu) was applied to remove TC from aqueous solutions without any regeneration process. The effects of pH, initial TC concentration, ionic strength, and coexisting ions on the adsorption were also discussed in detail. Compared with many reported adsorbents, the PAM/CA@Cu exhibited an excellent adsorption performance toward TC with a maximum adsorption capacity of 356.57 mg/g predicted by the Langmuir model at pH 5.0 and 30 °C with the absence of coexisting ions. The possible adsorption mechanism of TC onto the PAM/CA@Cu was revealed.

Abstract
Heavy metals contamination of water is one of the environmental issue globally. Thus prepared fly ash-based zeolite (FZA)-supported nano zerovalent iron and nickel (nZVI/Ni@FZA) bimetallic composite from low-cost fly ash waste for the potential treatment of anion (Cr(VI) and cation Cu(II)) heavy metals from industrial effluents at pH 3 and 5, respectively in this study. The systematic interaction between FZA and nZVI/Ni and the adsorptive removal mechanism was studied. The mean surface area of the nZVI/Ni@FZA (154.11 m2/g) was much greater than that of the FZA (46.6 m2/g) and nZVI (4.76 m2/g) independently, as determined by BET-N2 measurements. The effect of influence factors on the removal of Cr(VI) and Cu(II) by nZVI/Ni@FZA, such as pH effect, initial concentration effect, time effect, temperature effect, coexisting metals, and ionic strength, and cumulative loading ability, were discussed. The maximum adsorption capacity of nZVI/Ni@FZA was 48.31 mg/g and 147.06 mg/g towards Cr(VI) and Cu(II), respectively. These were higher than those of nZVI@FZA and FZA. It demonstrated that Ni could play an important role in enhancing the reduction ability of nZVI. Furthermore, isothermal and kinetic results revealed that both heavy metal adsorption processes were rate limiting monolayer Langmuir adsorption on homogeneous surfaces. Thermodynamic results suggested that the adsorptive removal of metal ions was endothermic with spontaneity. The applicability of nZVI/Ni@FZA on real industrial wastewater treatment results demonstrate that the concentration of heavy metals were removed under the acceptable standard levels. Further the adsorption capacity of nZVI/Ni@FZA was higher than the nZVI@FZA and FZA. The overall results demonstrated that nZVI/Ni@FZA was a promising, efficient, and economically feasible sorbent for potential wastewater treatment. Moreover this is first report on the preparation nZVI/Ni@FZA bimetallic composite.

Abstract
In this study, the specific surface area, pore structure, surface functional groups and microstructure of the biochar derived from the pyrolysis of pharmaceutical sludge are analyzed. The results showed that the pyrolysis temperature had a great influence on the properties of sludge-based biochar (SBB), and the specific surface area of the SBB first increased and then decreased with an increase in the pyrolysis temperature. The maximum specific surface area was 214.97 m2/g at 600 °C, while the pore volume increased with an increase in the pyrolysis temperature. The pickling process removed impurities in the SBB and increased the specific surface area of the material (319.80 m2/g). The effects of pyrolysis temperature, pH, adsorption time, and initial pollutant concentration on the adsorption process were also studied. The results showed that the adsorbents had good pH adaptability, and biochar produced at 600 °C had the best adsorption capacity (94.69 mg/g). Pickling increased the adsorption capacity to 157.38 mg/g. The results showed that pharmaceutical sludge has great potential as a raw material for the preparation of adsorbent. These benefits can compensate for the cost of sludge pyrolysis treatment.
