[PMID: 38408812 DOI: 10.1016/j.jes.2023.06.038] [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: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/28/2024]
Abstract
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is a toxic element that has negative impacts on crop growth and yield. Using plant extracts to convert toxic Cr(VI) into less toxic Cr(III) may be a more favorable option compared to chemical reducing agents. In this study, the potential effects and mechanisms of using an aqueous extract of Psidium guajava L. leaves (AEP) in reducing Cr(VI) toxicity in rice were comprehensively studied. Firstly, the reducing power of AEP for Cr(VI) was confirmed by the cyclic voltammetry combined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) assays. The highest Cr(VI) reduction efficiency reached approximately 78% under 1.5 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/mL of AEP and 10 mg/L Cr(VI) condition. Additionally, Cr(VI) stress had a significant inhibitory effect on rice growth. However, the exogenous application of AEP alleviated the growth inhibition and oxidative damage of rice under Cr(VI) stress by increasing the activity and level of enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidants. Furthermore, the addition of AEP restored the ultrastructure of root cells, promoted Cr adsorption onto root cell walls, and limited the translocation Cr to shoots. In shoots, AEP application also triggered the expression of specific genes involved in Cr defense and detoxification response, including photosynthesis pathways, antioxidant systems, flavonoids biosynthesis, and plant hormone signal transduction. These results suggest that AEP is an efficient reduction agent for Cr(VI), and exogenous application of AEP may be a promising strategy to mitigate the harm of Cr(VI) on rice, ultimately contributing to improved crop yield in Cr-contaminated environments.

Abstract
The development of low-cost, efficient, and environmentally friendly adsorbents is the key to highly toxic hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] removal by adsorption. In this paper, amino-functionalized lotus stem hydrochar (ALSHC) was prepared from an agricultural waste lotus stem (LS) for the adsorption removal of Cr(VI) from water. The effects of the initial Cr(VI) concentration, contact time, temperature, coexisting anions, and reusability of ALSHC on Cr(VI) removal were examined in detail. The adsorption mechanism was further discussed by investigating the impact of the solution's initial pH, the relation between the pH change in solution and Cr(VI) removal during the process, the changes of chromium (Cr) species in solution and on ALSHC during adsorption, and the XPS characterization. The results demonstrated that ALSHC effectively removed Cr(VI) from water with rapid adsorption (the removal rate reached 80.90% in only 10 min) and in situ detoxification. Most importantly, ALSHC still had better adsorption performance (adsorption capacity of 30.95 mg g-1) than commercially activated carbon, even at pH = 9.00. The adsorption of Cr(VI) by ALSHC accorded with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model, indicating a monolayer chemisorption process. The adsorption process was shown to be spontaneous and endothermic based on the thermodynamic characteristics (ΔG0 < 0, ΔH0 > 0, and ΔS0 > 0). The mechanism of Cr(VI) removal was mainly composed of three parts in sequence: Firstly, Cr(VI) in solution was quickly adsorbed onto ALSHC with protonated -NH2 through electrostatic attraction; subsequently, the adsorbed Cr(VI) on ALSHC was mostly detoxicated by in situ reduction; and finally, the reduced Cr(III) and the remaining Cr(VI) were fixed on the ALSHC surface by complexation. The prepared ALSHC displayed a certain superiority in Cr(VI) adsorption and had the prospect of further development.

Abstract
Selective adsorption of heavy metal ions from industrial effluent is important for healthy ecosystem development. However, the selective adsorption of heavy metal pollutants by biochar using lignin as raw material is still a challenge. In this paper, the lignin carbon material (N-BLC) was synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal carbonization method using paper black liquor (BL) as raw material and triethylene diamine (TEDA) as nitrogen source. N-BLC (2:1) showed excellent selectivity for Cr(VI) in the binary system, and the adsorption amounts of Cr(VI) in the binary system were all greater than 150 mg/g, but the adsorption amounts of Ca(II), Mg(II), and Zn(II) were only 19.3, 25.5, and 6.3 mg/g, respectively. The separation factor (SF) for Cr(VI) adsorption was as high as 120.0. Meanwhile, FTIR, elemental analysis and XPS proved that the surface of N-BLC (2:1) contained many N- and O- containing groups which were favorable for the removal of Cr(VI). The adsorption of N-BLC (2:1) followed the Langmuir model and its maximum theoretical adsorption amount was 618.4 mg/g. After 5th recycling, the adsorption amount of Cr(VI) by N-BLC (2:1) decreased about 15%, showing a good regeneration ability. Therefore, N-BLC (2:1) is a highly efficient, selective and reusable Cr(VI) adsorbent with wide application prospects.

Abstract
A kind of new magnetic oyster shell (OS) composite (OS-Fe3O4@SiO2@NH2@PEI) was synthesized and used as an adsorbent to remove carmine (CM), sunset yellow (SY) and Pb (II) from water. Firstly, Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were introduced on the surface of waste oyster shell powder, then amino silanization was used to improve the stability of the material, and finally polyethylenimide (PEI) was grafted by Schiff base reaction. The composite was characterized by FT-IR, SEM, EDS, XPS, VSM, BET, TEM and zeta potential. The effects of adsorbent dosage and initial solution pH on the three samples were investigated by adsorption experiments. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms were investigated in depth under the best experimental conditions. The composite adsorbent not only selectively removed anionic azo dyes, but also had good recycling. In addition, OS-Fe3O4@SiO2@NH2@PEI still had good performance in mixed samples. These results indicated that OS-Fe3O4@SiO2@NH2@PEI was successfully used for the removal of a wide range of anionic dyes and heavy metal ions from the environment, and provided a new strategy for recycling waste.

Abstract
Cr (VI) accumulates in an aqueous environment and exhibits huge harm to human health and the ecological system. Developed lignin biomass materials are complicated to prepare and have limited properties, and advances in lignin phenolic modification are lacking. Herein, an aminated poplar lignin-pyrogallol (PLP-PEI) with a simple design and adjustable phenolic hydroxyl content was developed using the acid hydrolysis-phase separation (AH-PS) method, and modified by the atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) strategy. Through diverse characterization analysis, the structural changes of PLP-PEI in the step-by-step synthesis process were monitored. An effective biomass capture system (Bio-Cap) was shown via systematically investigating the adsorption behaviors of Cr (VI) on PLP-PEI under various environmental conditions. Benefiting from introducing phenolic hydroxyl and amino groups, PLP-PEI demonstrated efficient adsorption capacity (598.80 mg/g for Cr (VI)). Additionally, the material also exhibited advantages, including monomeric chemisorption properties, strong reduction capability, and stable regeneration properties. Multiple driving forces were involved in the capture and removal process of Cr (VI), including complexation and electrostatic interaction. The low-cost natural biomass resources supported the industrial-scale synthesis and practical application of advanced aminated lignin polyphenol material, which showed outstanding advantages and enormous potential in the field of water environmental restoration.

Abstract
In this study, a porous polyamine lignin microsphere (PPALM) was prepared through the inverse suspension polymerization combined with freeze-drying, during which sodium lignosulfonate and polyetheramine (PEA) were crosslinked with epichlorohydrin (ECH) as the cross-linker. By adjusting the amount of ECH and PEA, the optimized PPALM exhibited suitable crosslinking degree, ensuring a balance of framework flexibility and rigidity, thereby facilitating the formation of abundant and fine pores. PPALM demonstrated good mechanical properties comparable to commercial sulfonated polystyrene cationic resin, with a porosity of 61.12 % and an average pore size of 283.51 nm. The saturation adsorption capacity of PPALM for Pb2+ was measured to be 156.82 mg/g, and it remained above 120 mg/g after five cycles of regeneration. Particularly, the concentration of 50 mg/L Pb2+ solution could be reduced to 0.98 mg/L after flowing through the PPALM packed bed, indicating the great potential of PPALM for application in wastewater treatment.

Preferential, synergistic sorption and reduction of Cr(VI) from chromium-rhodamine B mixed wastewater by magnetic porous biochar derived from wasted Myriophyllum aquaticum biomass.

Abstract
Eradication of heavy metals and dyes simultaneously from wastewater is urgently needed to safeguard public and environmental health. In this study, magnetic porous biochar derived from wasted Myriophyllum aquaticum (MPMaB) was synthesized by KOH-activation and co-precipitation method to treat chromate and rhodamine B (RhB)-bearing wastewater. The KOH activation significantly improved the pore structure of biochar with a high specific surface area of 937.1 m2 g-1. The sorption performance of MPMaB for Cr(VI) and RhB in single and co-solutes conditions was evaluated. In single system, a pH-dependent sorption pattern for Cr(VI) by MPMaB was revealed and the estimated sorption capability reached 175.4 mg g-1, whereas the Langmuir-based sorption capacity of RhB was 175.4 mg g-1 pH-independently. MPMaB partially transformed Cr(VI) to less toxic Cr(III) (approximately 59.3%). Synergistic sorption of Cr(VI) with the coexistence of RhB was observed, where synergistic effect ranged from 119% to 527% depending on pH. For example, the sorption capacity of Cr(VI) on MPMaB, at pH 2, augmented from 175.4 mg g-1 (single system) to 208.3 mg g-1 (binary system). Preferential sorption of Cr(VI) was found and was further confirmed by the post-sorption of Cr(VI) (or RhB) by MPMaB pre-sorbed with RhB (or chromate). Chromate sorption mechanisms mainly include electrostatic interactions and complexation, while the sorption of RhB is ascribed to π-π interactions, pore filling and hydrogen bonding. Additionally, MPMaB showed excellent reusability and maintained high removal efficiency after 5 cycles. In short, MPMaB can efficiently treat chromium and dyes-containing wastewater as sustainable and environmentally friendly adsorbent.

Biorefining of rapeseed meal: A new and sustainable strategy for improving Cr(VI) biosorption on residual wastes from agricultural byproducts after phenolic extraction. WASTE MANAGEMENT (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2023; 165:70-81.

Abstract
Phenolic recovery from agricultural byproducts has been highlighted due to their health-promoting bioactivities. However, uncontrolled discard of residues after extraction process would induce environmental pollution and bioresource waste. In this study, biorefining of phenolic-rich rapeseed meal (RSM) and its defatted sample (dRSM) was attempted by holistic utilization of phenolic extract and residue separately. Phenolic removal could significantly improve residues' Cr(VI) adsorption capacities by about 21%, which presented extended physical surface and more released functional groups. Moreover, simulating raw material by remixing 3% separated phenolic extracts or main component sinapic acid therein with corresponding residues further improved about 12% adsorption efficiencies. These indicated that the different present forms of phenolics had opposite effects on Cr(VI) removal. While natural conjugational form inhibited hosts' biosorption, free form had enhanced functions for either extract or residue. Four optimal adsorption parameters (pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time and initial Cr(VI) concentration), three kinetic (pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and intra-particle diffusion) models and two isotherms (Langmuir and Freundlich) were used to reveal the adsorption process. The maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity on residues could reach about 100 mg/g, which was superior to that of most biosorbents derived from agricultural byproducts, even some biochar. Together with the residues' advantages with everlasting capacity after 3 adsorption-desorption cycles and excellent abilities for adsorbing multiple co-existed metal ions (Cr(VI), Cd(II), Cu(II), Pb(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II)), phenolic recovery was first proved to be a new and sustainable strategy for modifying biosorbents from agricultural byproducts with zero waste.

Abstract
Polyamidoamine hydrogels prepared by the radical post-polymerization of α,ω-bisacrylamide-terminated M-AGM oligomers, in turn obtained by the polyaddition of 4-aminobutylguanidine with N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide, were reinforced with raw silk fibers, which can establish covalent bonds with the polyamidoamine matrix via reaction of the amine groups in the lysine residues with the acrylamide terminals of the M-AGM oligomer. Silk/M-AGM membranes were prepared by impregnating silk mats with M-AGM aqueous solutions and subsequent crosslinking by UV irradiation. The guanidine pendants of the M-AGM units imparted the ability to form strong but reversible interactions with oxyanions, including the highly toxic chromate ions. The potential of the silk/M-AGM membranes to purify Cr(VI)-contaminated water down to the drinkability level, that is, below 50 ppb, was tested by performing sorption experiments both in static (Cr(VI) concentration 20-2.5 ppm) and flow conditions (Cr(VI) concentration 10-1 ppm). After static sorption experiments, the Cr(VI)-loaded silk/M-AGM membranes could easily be regenerated via treatment with a 1 M sodium hydroxide solution. Dynamic tests performed using two stacked membranes and a 1 ppm Cr(VI) aqueous solution reduced Cr(VI) concentration down to 4 ppb. Remarkably, the use of renewable sources, the environmentally friendly preparation process, and the goal achieved meet eco-design requirements.

Abstract
Organic pollutants pose a serious threat to water environment, thus it is essential to develop high-performance adsorbent to remove them from wastewater. Herein, nitrogen-doped magnetic porous carbon (M-PLAC) with three-dimensional porous structure was synthesized from lignin to adsorb methylene blue (MB) and tetracycline (TC) in wastewater. The calculated equilibrium adsorption amount by M-PLAC for MB and TC was 645.52 and 1306.00 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption of MB and TC on M-PLAC conformed to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The removal of MB by M-PLAC showed fast and efficient characteristics and exhibited high selectivity for TC in a binary system. In addition, M-PLAC was suitable for a variety of complex water environments and had good regeneration performance, demonstrating potential advantages in practical wastewater treatment. The organic pollutant adsorption by M-PLAC was attributed to electrostatic interaction, hole filling effect, hydrogen bonding, and the π-π interaction.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 857:159312. [PMID: 36220470 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.159312] [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: 08/19/2022] [Revised: 09/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Among toxic chemicals, hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is one of the most carcinogenic and toxic pollutants that hostiles to the health of both humans and other living things. Therefore, the removal of Cr(VI) is of great importance to keep our environment clean and tidy. In this study, an easy-make, inexpensive, and natural biosorbent material (Sp-P[5]) was prepared to preserve our environment using a pillar[5]arene based-on sporopollenin microcapsule. The prepared biosorbent was successfully characterized by some techniques such as FTIR, XRD, and SEM. The biosorbent, Sp-P[5], exhibited an open mesoporous structure richly decorated with multi-amine-containing moieties resulting in enhanced Cr(VI) sorption. The sorption behavior of Cr(VI) ions is satisfactorily adapted from the sorption kinetics pseudo-second-order law and the isotherm models to the Langmuir model at different temperatures. The Langmuir model fits at different temperatures (298-328 K) and the maximum sorption capacities of the Cr(VI) ion ranged from 106.38 to 117.26 mg/g. The thermodynamic calculations reveal that the sorption of Cr(VI) ions on the Sp-P[5] is entropy-driven, endothermic, and spontaneous. The prepared biosorbent was also applied to the natural wastewater samples and different ions (chromate and dichromate). The sorption and desorption experiments showed that the sorption efficiency for Cr(VI) ions of the Sp-P[5] decreased to 70.88 % after 8 cycles. As result, the synthesized biosorbent, Sp-P[5], has outstanding potential in the removal of Cr(VI) ions from water bodies and natural wastewater systems.

Abstract
In this work, a novel alkali lignin-based adsorption material, alkali lignin-based poly(tetraethylene pentamine-pyrogallol) (AL-PTAP), was prepared using a Mannich reaction and catechol-amine reaction for removal of Cr(vi). It was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The effects of tetraethylene pentamine (TEPA) dosage, pyrogallol (PL) dosage, contact time, pH, temperature and other factors on the adsorption behavior of the adsorbent were systematically investigated. These experimental data show that the adsorption behavior conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity is 769.2 mg g-1 at 303 K, which is much higher than that of alkali lignin (AL). AL-PTAP can achieve a removal rate of almost 100% for Cr(vi) solutions with a concentration of less than 90 mg L-1 at 1 min. Furthermore, the toxic Cr(vi) is partly reduced to nontoxic Cr(iii) during the adsorption process. Therefore, AL-PTAP is a fast and efficient alkali lignin-based adsorbent, which is expected to improve the utilization value of alkali lignin in Cr(vi) wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The objectives of the study were to evaluate and compare the efficacy of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) removal by amino-modified (HDA-MPBC) and pristine biochar (MPBC) derived from an invasive plant Mimosa pigra. Prepared biochars were characterized and batch experiments were conducted to check the performance and the mechanisms of Cr(VI) removal. FTIR spectra revealed that the surface of HDA-MPBC is abundant with amino functional groups which was further confirmed by XPS analysis. The highest Cr(VI) removal for both HDA-MPBC (76%) and MPBC (62%) was observed at pH 3.0. The batch sorption data were well fitted to the Freundlich isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model, suggesting the involvement of both physisorption and chemisorption mechanisms for Cr(VI) removal. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies showed that both Cr(VI) and Cr(III) were presented at the modified biochar surface after adsorption. These results indicated that the electrostatic attraction of Cr(VI) coupled with reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and complexation of Cr(III) ions with functional groups on HDA-MPBC as the most plausible mechanism for removal of Cr(VI) by modified biochar. Regeneration experiment concluded that adsorbed Cr(VI) onto the surface of HDA-MPBC had the least tendency of being desorbed in basic conditions. HDA-MPBC showed a high performance in adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) compared to pristine biochar signifying the amino modification to enhance adsorption performance of biochar in Cr(VI) removal from wastewater.

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
The low reactivity of zero-valent iron (ZVI) usually limits its application for pollutant remediation. Therefore, a microscopic galvanic cell (mGC) with short-circuited cathode and anode was synthesized to intensify its galvanic corrosion. The prepared mGC exhibited 7.14 times higher Fe(II) release performance than ordinary nanoscale-ZVI (nZVI), rendering efficient Cr(VI) removal performance. Density functional theory (DFT) revealed mutual-activation of the cathode and anode due to close proximity, dramatically enhancing the galvanic corrosion of Fe(0) in mGC. The corrosion potential of mGC was measured as -0.77 V, which was 100 mV more negative than nZVI. The released electrons and surface-bond Fe(II) from anode in mGC was proved to be the dominant reductive species. More importantly, Cr(VI) reduction was slightly inhibited by hydroxyl radicals generated by a series of inherent side-reactions in the system, which could be well eliminated by low concentrations of 4-acetamido phenol. This study provides a promising strategy for ZVI activation, and sheds light on its environmental applications.

Abstract
Cr(VI), a serious threat to human health, widely exists in the effluents of various industrial processes. In this paper, the potential of industrial lignin for efficient removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater was systematically investigated, including pulping black liquor lignin (BLN), enzymolysis lignin (ELN), and SPORL pretreatment spent liquor (FS). The structure characterizations of three lignins were investigated by thermogravimetry (TG), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area measurement, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Among these three lignins, BLN showed the highest adsorption amount of Cr(VI) and good selectivity in wastewater simulation. According to the Langmuir model, the calculated maximum adsorption amount of Cr(VI) on ELN, BLN, and FS was 801.57, 864.30, and 642.26 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption of Cr(VI) by industrial lignins was a chemisorption process, during which Cr(VI) was reduced to low-toxic Cr(III). This paper provided a promising application for the effective utilization of industrial lignins.

Abstract
Furfural residue (FR), a solid waste, was applied as the precursor to prepare activated carbon by steam activation. The Box-Behnken design (BBD) approach-based response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to optimize the preparation conditions to evaluate their effects on the performance of activated carbon from furfural residue (FRAC). The optimum preparation conditions of FRAC were found as follows: activation temperature of 922 °C, activation time of 62 min, and the mass ratio of char to H2O of 1:4.5, resulting in 1,501.84 mg/g of iodine adsorption capacity and 1,662.41 m2/g of specific surface area. The FRAC was characterized and then the adsorption performance of bisphenol S (BPS) on FRAC was investigated. Langmuir and Koble-Corrigan isotherm models were well fitted to the experimental data, and the adsorption kinetics process was perfectly described by the pseudo-second-order model. Thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of BPS was a spontaneous exothermic process. Besides, the regeneration efficiency of FRAC was over 97% after five consecutive cycles. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of FRAC for BPS was 3.2848 mmol/g at 298 K, indicating that the FRAC was an excellent adsorbent for the removal of BPS from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Recent developments in nanoscience have appreciably modified how diseases are prevented, diagnosed, and treated. Metal nanoparticles, specifically silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), are widely used in bioscience. From time to time, various synthetic methods for the synthesis of AgNPs are reported, i.e., physical, chemical, and photochemical ones. However, among these, most are expensive and not eco-friendly. The physicochemical parameters such as temperature, use of a dispersing agent, surfactant, and others greatly influence the quality and quantity of the synthesized NPs and ultimately affect the material’s properties. Scientists worldwide are trying to synthesize NPs and are devising methods that are easy to apply, eco-friendly, and economical. Among such strategies is the biogenic method, where plants are used as the source of reducing and capping agents. In this review, we intend to debate different strategies of AgNP synthesis. Although, different preparation strategies are in use to synthesize AgNPs such as electron irradiation, optical device ablation, chemical reduction, organic procedures, and photochemical methods. However, biogenic processes are preferably used, as they are environment-friendly and economical. The review covers a comprehensive discussion on the biological activities of AgNPs, such as antimicrobial, anticancer anti-inflammatory, and anti-angiogenic potentials of AgNPs. The use of AgNPs in water treatment and disinfection has also been discussed in detail.

Abstract
Cellulose from different lignocellulosic biomass can be used to prepare various materials. In this work, the cellulose nanofibrils were produced from hardwood bleached kraft pulp. Then, a novel biosorbent from cellulose nanofibrils grafted with poly(m-aminobenzene sulfonate) (PABS) was prepared for effective detoxification and adsorption of Cr(VI) in an aqueous medium. 6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO)-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNF) with a high aspect ratio was used as an adsorbent matrix. PABS, an amine-rich conductive polymer, was grafted onto TOCNF via a successive two-step reaction. The analyses of Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) confirmed the successful grafting reaction between TOCNF and PABS. The biosorbent from TOCNF-bonded PABS with the nitrogen content of 7.0% was synthesized. It exhibited excellent Cr(VI) adsorption capacity at a solution pH below 3, and almost 100% Cr(VI) can be removed. The adsorption of Cr(VI) on the biosorbent was described by a pseudo-second-order model and obeyed the Langmuir model. The Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of the biosorbent from TOCNF-bonded PABS was almost 10 times higher than that of TOCNF. It was interesting to note that part of Cr(VI) ions had been reduced to Cr(III) during the adsorption process. It indicated that the biosorbent from TOCNF grafted with PABS could detoxify and adsorb Cr(VI) synchronously.

Abstract
As one of the most significant natural polymer with the highest annual yield, lignin has been applied in the treatment of wastewater to remove heavy metal ions. However, there are still some shortages, such as low reactivity, difficulties in adsorbing oxyanions and low selectivity on specific oxyanions. To improve its adsorption properties, a novel lignin-based adsorbent was prepared in this study, doped with nitrogen by Mannich reaction, using triethylenetetramine (TETA) as N source, and further modified with Ca2+. The adsorption of Ca, N-co-doped lignin (Ca@N-Lig) for As (V), Cr (VI) and P (V) was studied. The Ca@N-Lig shows high capacity, excellent selectivity and prominent regeneration ability for As (V) adsorption. The adsorption of Ca@N-Lig for As (V) followed the Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetics model, yielding a maximum adsorption capacity of 681.59 mg·g-1 and a fast adsorption equilibrium within 30 min. Ca@N-Lig has an excellent regeneration ability on the adsorption of As (V) with a decrease of about 15.60% after 5 adsorption/desorption cycles. This study offers an efficient way to remove As (V) from polluted water.

Abstract
In the present study, a polymeric nanocomposite, CoFe2O4@DHBF, was fabricated using 2,4 dihydroxybenzaldehyde and formaldehyde in basic medium with CoFe2O4 nanoparticles. The fabricated nanocomposite was characterized using FTIR, TGA, XRD, SEM, TEM, and XPS analyses. The analytical results revealed that the magnetic nanocomposite was fabricated successfully with high surface area 370.24 m2/g. The fabricated CoFe2O4@DHBF was used as an efficient adsorbent for the adsorption of U(VI) and Eu(III) ions from contaminated water. pH, initial concentration, adsorption time, and the temperature of the contaminated water solution affecting the adsorption ability of the nanocomposites were studied. The batch adsorption results exposed that the adsorption capacity for the removal of U(VI) and Eu(III) was found to be 237.5 and 225.5 mg/g. The adsorption kinetics support that both the metal ions follow second order adsorption kinetics. The adsorption isotherm well fits with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and the correlation coefficient (R2) values were found to be 0.9920 and 0.9913 for the adsorption of U(VI) and Eu(III), respectively. It was noticed that the fabricated nanocomposites show excellent regeneration ability and about 220.1 and 211.3 mg/g adsorption capacity remains with U(VI) and Eu(III) under optimum conditions.

Abstract
Furfural residue (FR) is an inevitable by-product of industrial furfural production. If FR is not managed properly, it will result in environmental problems. In this study, FR was used as a novel precursor for activated carbon (AC) production by H3PO4 activation under different conditions. Under optimum conditions, the prepared FRAC had high BET surface area (1,316.7 m2/g) and micro-mesoporous structures. The prepared FRAC was then used for the adsorption of Cr(VI). The effect of solution pH, contact time, initial Cr(VI) concentration, and temperature was systematically studied. Characterization of the adsorption process indicated that the experimental data were well-fitted by the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetics model. The maximum adsorption capacity of 454.6 mg/g was achieved at pH 2.0, which was highly comparable to the other ACs reported in the literatures. The preparation of FRAC using H3PO4 activation can make use of FR's characteristic acidity, which could make it preferable in practical industrial production.

Abstract
This study investigated the potential use of spruce sawdust that was pretreated with diethylene glycol and sulfuric acid for the removal of hexavalent chromium from wastewater. The sawdust pretreatment process was conducted at different temperatures and times. The adsorbent was characterized by quantitative saccharification, scanning electron microscopy, and Brunauer-Emmet-Teller surface area analysis. Adsorption capacity was studied for both batch and column processes. The experimental adsorption isotherms were simulated using seven isotherm models, including Freundlich and Langmuir models. By using the Langmuir isotherm model, the maximal Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of organosolv-pretreated spruce sawdust (qm) was 318.3 mg g-1. Furthermore, the kinetic data were fitted to Lagergren, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion models, revealing that the adsorption of Cr(VI) onto spruce sawdust pretreated with diethylene glycol and sulfuric acid is best represented by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Three kinetic models, namely, the Bohart-Adams model, Thomas model, and modified dose-response (MDR) model, were used to fit the experimental data obtained from the column experiments and to resolve the characteristic parameters. The Thomas adsorption column capacity of the sawdust was increased from 2.44 to 31.1 mg g-1 upon pretreatment, thus, demonstrating that organosolv treatment enhances the adsorption capability of the material.
