Liu Y, Shan H, You S, Mo H, Zhan H. Enhanced arsenic removal by graphene oxide chitosan composites through FeOx decoration: Influences and mechanism. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131078. [PMID: 38521309 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131078] [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: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 03/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Iron decoration has been recognized as one of the most important paths to enhance contaminant adsorption by carbon-based composites. In this study, varying amounts of Fe (II) are used for the modification of graphene oxide chitosan (GOCS) materials to assess the impact of iron oxide (FeOx) morphology on the composites and their efficiency in arsenic (As) removal. Results show that incorporating 0.08 mol Fe(II) into GOCS yields better As removal performance, leading to a remarkable enhancement by 5 times for As(V) and 6 times for As(III). The iron minerals in the material consist of goethite (FeO(OH)) and magnetite (Fe3O4), with FeO(OH) playing a predominant role in As removal through the complexation and electrostatic attraction of -OH and Fe - O groups. The adsorption capacity for As (Qe) decreases with the increasing pH and the mass and volume ratio (m/v) but increases with the increasing initial concentration (C0). Besides, the presence of SO42- and HPO42- can significantly reduce As removal by the FeOx-modified GOCS. Under the conditions of pH = 3, m/v = 1.0 g/L, and C0 = 10 mg/L, a maximum Qe value reaches 61.94 mg/g. The adsorption is well-fitted to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model and is an endothermic, spontaneous, and monolayer adsorption process.

[PMID: 37806569 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.167575] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2023] [Revised: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/01/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023]
Abstract
In this study, we demonstrated the effective acquisition of magnetic iron oxide (MIO) for As(V) adsorption by high-temperature pyrolysis of waste iron sludge from the water treatment plant under a confined environment without adding extra chemical reagents. The operating temperature and time in the pyrolysis process were optimized to improve the yield of MIO and its As(V) adsorption capacity. MIO500-2(500 °C, 2 h) had both relatively high yield and arsenic adsorption efficiency, which was characterized by XRD and XPS as mainly γ-Fe2O3 with small particle size (100-900 nm), significant mesopore (12.43 nm), high specific surface area (65.25 m2/g), and effective saturation magnetization intensity (14.45 emu/g). The maximum adsorption capacity was 14.2 ± 0.4 mg/g, and the removal rate could still reach about 80 % after five times of adsorbent regeneration. Considering this facile preparation route and its high yield, large-scale production of MIO from waste iron sludge is feasible, which is expected to provide a low-cost and efficient adsorbent for the treatment of arsenic-containing water in less economically developed areas.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 328:117000.

Abstract
The use of ceramsite to construct filtration systems (e.g., biofilters) is a common method for water treatment. To promote such applications, the development of low-cost, high-performance, and environmentally friendly ceramsites has received increasing attention from scientists, and a critical step in the development is the preparation of raw materials. As an inevitable and non-hazardous by-product during potable water production, drinking water treatment residue (DWTR) is typically recycled to make water treatment ceramsite to promote recycling in filtration systems. This study aims to bridge the knowledge gap regarding DWTR in making ceramsites for water treatment. The results suggest that the fabrication methods for DWTR-based ceramsite can be generally classified into sintering and non-sintering procedures. For the sintering method, owing to the heterogeneous properties (especially aluminum, iron, and calcium), DWTR has been applied as various sub-ingredients for raw materials preparations. In contrast, for the non-sintering method, DWTR is commonly applied as the main ingredient, and natural curing, physical crosslinking, and thermal treatment methods have been typically adopted to make ceramsite. However, DWTR-based ceramsites tend to have a high adsorption capability and favorable microbial effects to control different kinds of pollution (e.g., phosphorus, nitrogen, and organic matter). Future work is typically recommended to thoroughly evaluate the performance of DWTR-based ceramsite-constructed filtration systems to control water pollution concerning the making procedures, the potential to control pollution, the stability, and the safety of raw DWTR-based ceramsite, providing systematic information to design more proper planning for beneficial recycling.

Abstract
Accessibility to clean drinking water often remains a crucial task at times. Among other water pollutants, arsenic is considered a more lethal contaminant and has become a serious threat to human life globally. This review discussed the sources, chemistry, distribution, and toxicity of arsenic and various conventional technologies that are in option for its removal from the water system. Nowadays, biosorbents are considered the best option for arsenic-contaminated water treatment. We have mainly focused on the need and potential of biosorbents especially the role of chitosan-based composites for arsenic removal. The chitosan-based sorbents are economically more efficient in terms of their, low toxicity, cost-effectiveness, biodegradability, eco-friendly nature, and reusability. The role of various modification techniques, such as physical and chemical, has also been evaluated to improve the physicochemical properties of biosorbent. The importance of adsorption kinetic and isotherm models and the role of solution pH and pHPZC for arsenic uptake from the polluted water have also been investigated. Some other potential applications of chitosan-based biosorbents have also been discussed along with its sustainability aspect. Finally, some suggestions have been highlighted for further improvements in this field.
