Abstract
The excessive utilization of antimicrobials in humans and animals has resulted in considerable environmental contamination, necessitating the development of high-performance antibiotic adsorption media. A significant challenge is the development of composite nanofibrous materials that are both beneficial and easy to fabricate, with the aim of improving adsorption capacity. Herein, a new kind of zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8)-modified regenerated cellulose nanofibrous membrane (ZIF-8@RC NFM) was designed and fabricated by combining electrospinning and in situ surface modification technologies. Benefiting from its favorable surface wettability, enhanced tensile strength, interconnected porous structure, and relatively large specific surface area, the resulting ZIF-8@RC NFMs exhibit a relatively high adsorption capacity for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) of 105 mg g-1 within 3 h. Moreover, a Langmuir isotherm model and a pseudo-second-order model have been demonstrated to be more appropriate for the description of the TCH adsorption process of ZIF-8@RC-3 NFMs. Additionally, this composite fibrous material could keep a relatively stable adsorption capability under various ionic strengths. The successful fabrication of the novel ZIF-8@RC NFMs may shed light on the further development of wastewater adsorption treatment materials.

Abstract
This study synthesized a carboxymethyl chitosan-modified bimetallic Co/Zn-ZIF (CZ@CMC) with strong hydrophilicity and adsorption performance via the one-pot method. Tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) was used as the model contaminant to evaluate the adsorption and peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation properties of CZ@CMC. Mechanism showed that the adsorption behavior occurred through pore filling, electrostatic attraction, surface complexation, hydrogen bonding, and π-π stacking. In addition, a CZ@CMC/PMS system was constructed, which had excellent catalytic performance. The hydrophilicity and selective adsorption properties of CMC conferred a greatly accelerated CZ@CMC in catalyzing the PMS process with kobs of 0.095 min-1, in which OH, 1O2, SO4-, O2-, and Co(III) were the main ROS which quenching tests, EPR, and chemical probe experiments verified. In addition, the degradation pathways of TCH were obtained utilizing DFT and HPLC-MS and analyzed to show that the system possessed a good detoxification capacity. This work is expected to provide a green, efficient, and stable strategy to enhance the adsorption properties of catalytic materials and subsequently their co-catalytic properties.

[PMID: 38447605 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118562] [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: 12/31/2023] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/08/2024]
Abstract
Increased levels of heavy metals (HMs) in aquatic environments poses serious health and ecological concerns. Hence, several approaches have been proposed to eliminate/reduce the levels of HMs before the discharge/reuse of HMs-contaminated waters. Adsorption is one of the most attractive processes for water decontamination; however, the efficiency of this process greatly depends on the choice of adsorbent. Therefore, the key aim of this article is to review the progress in the development and application of different classes of conventional and emerging adsorbents for the abatement of HMs from contaminated waters. Adsorbents that are based on activated carbon, natural materials, microbial, clay minerals, layered double hydroxides (LDHs), nano-zerovalent iron (nZVI), graphene, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), metal organic frameworks (MOFs), and zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) are critically reviewed, with more emphasis on the last four adsorbents and their nanocomposites since they have the potential to significantly boost the HMs removal efficiency from contaminated waters. Furthermore, the optimal process conditions to achieve efficient performance are discussed. Additionally, adsorption isotherm, kinetics, thermodynamics, mechanisms, and effects of varying adsorption process parameters have been introduced. Moreover, heavy metal removal driven by other processes such as oxidation, reduction, and precipitation that might concurrently occur in parallel with adsorption have been reviewed. The application of adsorption for the treatment of real wastewater has been also reviewed. Finally, challenges, limitations and potential areas for improvements in the adsorptive removal of HMs from contaminated waters are identified and discussed. Thus, this article serves as a comprehensive reference for the recent developments in the field of adsorptive removal of heavy metals from wastewater. The proposed future research work at the end of this review could help in addressing some of the key limitations facing this technology, and create a platform for boosting the efficiency of the adsorptive removal of heavy metals.

Mi FL, Chen WY, Chen ZR, Chang IW, Wu SJ. Sequential removal of phosphate and copper(II) ions using sustainable chitosan biosorbent. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131178. [PMID: 38554905 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131178] [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: 12/30/2023] [Revised: 03/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
Although adsorbents are good candidates for removing phosphorus and heavy metals from wastewater, the use of biosorbents for the sequential treatment of phosphorus and copper has not yet been studied. Porous chitosan (CS)-based biosorbents (CGBs) were developed to adsorb phytic acid (PA), a major form of organic phosphate. This first adsorbate (PA) further served as an additional ligand (P-type ligand) for the CGBs (N-type ligand) to form a complex with the second adsorbate (copper). After the adsorption of PA (the first adsorbate), the spent CGBs were recycled and used as a new adsorbent to adsorb Cu(II) ions (the second adsorbate), which was expected to have a dual coordination effect through P, N-ligand complexation with copper. The interactions and complexation between CS, PA and Cu(II) ions on the PA-adsorbed CGBs (PACGBs) were investigated by performing FTIR, XPS, XRD, and SEM-EDS analyses. The PACGBs exhibited fast and enhanced adsorption of Cu(II) ions, owing to the synergistic effect of the amino groups of CS (the original ligand, N-type) and the phosphate groups of PA (an additional ligand, P-type) on the adsorption of Cu(II) ions. This is the first time that sequential removal of phosphorus and heavy metals by biosorbents has been performed using biosorbents.

Abstract
The dyes in printing and dyeing wastewater are harmful to the human body and the environment. It is essential to develop practical and effective adsorbents to deal with them. In this study, an Fe-doped, ZIF-67 derived Fe/Co/C composite material with strong magnetism was successfully synthesized. The effects of pH, initial concentration, and adsorption time on the properties of the adsorbent were investigated. To further improve the removal efficiency and enhance the practicality, potassium peroxymonosulfate (PMS) was added to the system due to its Fenton-like effect. Then, an Fe/Co/C composite was used with PMS to remove Congo red (CR) with a 98% removal of 250 mg·L-1. Moreover, for its high saturation magnetization of 85.4 emu·g-1, the Fe/Co/C composite can be easily recovered by applying a magnetic field, solving the problem that powdery functional materials are difficult to recover and, thus, avoiding secondary pollution. Furthermore, since the composite material was doped before carbonization, this synthetic strategy is flexible and the required metal elements can be added at will to achieve different purposes. This study demonstrates that this Fe-doped, ZIF-67 derived magnetic material has potential application prospects for dye adsorption.

One-pot co-crystallized hexanal-loaded ZIF-8/quaternized chitosan film for temperature-responsive ethylene inhibition and climacteric fruit preservation. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 265:130798.

Abstract
Controlling ethylene production and microbial infection are key factors to prolong the shelf life of climacteric fruit. Herein, a nanocomposite film, hexanal-loaded ZIF-8/CS (HZCF) with "nano-barrier" structure, was developed by a one-pot co-crystallized of ZIF-8 in situ growth on quaternized chitosan (CS) and encapsulation of hexanal into ZIF-8 via microporous adsorption. The resultant film realized the temperature responsive release of hexanal via the steric hindrance and hierarchical pore structure as "nano-barrier", which can inhibit ethylene production in climacteric fruit on demand. Based on this, the maximum ethylene inhibition rate of HZCF was up to 52.6 %. Meanwhile, the film exhibits excellent antibacterial, mechanical, UV resistance and water retention properties, by virtue of the functional synergy between ZIF-8 and CS. Contributed to the multifunctional features, HZCF prolonged the shelf life of banana and mango for at least 16 days, which is 8 days longer than that of control fruit. More strikingly, HZCF is washable and biodegradable, which is expected to replace non-degradable plastic film. Thus, this study provides a convenient novel approach to simplify the encapsulation of active molecule on metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), develops a packaging material for high-efficient freshness preservation, and helps to alleviate the survival crisis caused by food waste.

Abstract
ABSTRACTChitosan (CS) is commonly used as an adsorbent for wastewater treatment because of its low cost, strong adsorption properties, and high availability of raw materials required for its production. However, CS exhibits limited adaptability to pH, poor mechanical properties, and high swelling in aqueous media; these limitations restrict its widespread use. To address these issues, herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) is loaded onto crosslinked CS microspheres (CSM) to prepare CSM@ZIF-67, a composite adsorbent. Next, the CSM@ZIF-67 is applied to the treatment of Congo red (CR) dye, which is typically present in printing and dyeing wastewater. The results demonstrate that the in situ synthesis of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on CSM improve the dispersion of MOFs and preserve the morphology of the MOFs. The adsorption equilibrium of CSM@ZIF-67 is reached within 150 min, and its adsorption capacity is as high as 538.4 mg/g at a pH of 9 and temperature of 25 °C. The CR adsorption process is consistent with the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models, thus revealing that chemisorption is the primary rate-limiting step, and the pollutants are adsorbed on the adsorbent surface in a monolayer. Experiments on material cycling and regeneration performance reveal that the removal efficiency of CSM@ZIF-67 remains above 90%, even after five rounds of adsorption. CSM@ZIF-67 has abundant functional groups and adsorption sites and can efficiently remove CR through mutual interactions between the metal coordination effect, π-π conjugation, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions.

Abstract
Efficient sequestration of arsenic from drinking water is a global need. Herein we report eco-friendly porous hybrid adsorbent beads for removal of arsenic, through in situ synthesis of MIL-100(Fe) in the chitosan solvogel. To understand the structural vs. performance correlation, series of hybrid adsorbents were synthesized by modulating synthesis conditions like temperature, crystallization time, and concentration. Adsorbents were investigated using PXRD, FT-IR, SEM, and ICP-OES. Intriguing correlation between crystallinity and adsorption performance was observed as low and high crystalline MIL-100(Fe)-chitosan (ChitFe5 and ChitFe7, respectively) exhibited exceptional adsorption towards As5+ by removing it from water with 99% efficiency, whereas for As3+ species removal of about 85% was afforded. Adsorption isotherms indicated that increase in crystallinity (ChitFe5 -> ChitFe7), adsorption capacities of As5+ and As3+ increased from 23.2 to 64.5, and from 28.1 to 35.3 mg/g, respectively. Selectivity tests of the adsorbents towards As5+ and As3+ over competitive anions in the equimolar competitive systems having nitrates, sulfates, and carbonates demonstrated that the performance of the absorbents was fully maintained, relative to the control system. Through this study a highly selective and efficient adsorbent for arsenic species is designed and a clear insight into the structural tuning and its effect on adsorption performance is provided.

Deep insight into selective adsorption behavior and mechanism of novel deep eutectic solvent functionalized bio-sorbent towards methcathinone: Experiments and DFT calculation.

Abstract
This work designed and synthesized novelly selective, highly efficient and friendly environmental biochar nanomaterial (ZMBC@ChCl-EG) by screening suitable deep eutectic solvent (DES) as the functional monomer via Density Functional Theory (DFT). The prepared ZMBC@ChCl-EG achieved the highly efficient adsorption of methcathinone (MC) and exhibited excellent selectivity as well as good reusability. Selectivity analysis concluded that the distribution coefficient value (KD) of ZMBC@ChCl-EG towards MC was 3.247 L/g, which was about 3 times higher than that of ZMBC, corresponding to stronger selective adsorption capacity. The studies of isothermal and kinetics indicated that ZMBC@ChCl-EG had an excellent adsorption capacity towards MC and the adsorption was mainly chemically controlled. In addition, DFT was used to calculate the binding energies between MC and each component. The binding energies were -10.57 kcal/mol for ChCl-EG/MC, -3.15∼-9.51 kcal/mol for BCs/MC, -2.33 kcal/mol for ZIF-8/MC, respectively, suggesting that DES played a major role in enhancing methcathinone adsorption. Lastly, the adsorption mechanisms were revealed by variables experiment combined with characterizations and DFT calculation. The main mechanisms were hydrogen bonding and π-π interaction.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 226:115694.

Abstract
The annual growth of water pollution resulting from the uncontrolled entry of heavy metals, like Pb2+ ions, is one of the most critical global concerns due to its direct and indirect effects on human life. The absorption of this component by the body could affect the nervous system via oxidative stress production or disturbing cellular biological mechanism. So, it is important to find an effective method for purifying the existing waters. This study aims to fabricate and compare the effect of two new nano-adsorbents (Fe3O4@ZIF-8 and Fe3O4@SiO2@ZIF-8) on removing Pb2+ ions from the aqueous solution. Accordingly, iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized via co-precipitation method at first and then coated with a silica shell through the sol-gel method. Both nanoparticles were coated with a layer of metal-organic framework (MOF), ZIF-8, and analyzed with different physicochemical tests. In the following parts, the Pb2+ ion removal capability of the nano-adsorbents was evaluated in the presence of different parameters, including nanosorbent concentrations, contact time, pH, and pollutant concentrations. Results confirmed preparation of nanoparticles with a mean size of about 110 ± 10 nm and 80 ± 10 nm for Fe3O4@ZIF-8 and Fe3O4@SiO2@ZIF-8, respectively. Both nanoparticles showed the highest amount of pollutants removal (near 90% for both nanoparticles) at pH = 6 within 15 min of contact in the presence of 100 ppm Pb2+ ions. Besides, in the case of real samples, with a concentration of about 150 ppm of Pb2+ ions, they showed maximum adsorption of about 93.61% and 99.2% for Fe3O4@ZIF-8 and Fe3O4@SiO2@ZIF-8, respectively. The presence of iron oxide nanoparticles in the structure of this adsorbent makes it easy to separate them in a user-friendly method. A brief comparison between these nanosorbents indicates that Fe3O4@SiO2@ZIF-8 nanoparticles have better performance due to their higher porosity and surface area ratio and so it could be used as a cost-effective ideal nanosorbent candidate for easy removal of heavy metals from water.

Abstract
In this study, a green adsorbent (Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2) with the ability of addressing the issues of separation and recovery of UiO-66-NH2 is obtained using a simple co-precipitation method under environmentally benign conditions. Various characterization techniques are utilized for evaluating the properties of the developed adsorbent. The capability of Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2 towards 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and glyphosate (GP) from solution is explored. The results revealed that the magnetization process did not destroy the crystal structure of UiO-66-NH2, which ensured that Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2 had good adsorption performance for 2,4-D and GP. The adsorption processes showed a wide pH application range, high salt tolerance, and regeneration performance as well as an excellent adsorption rate. Results from thermodynamic study showed that both processes were spontaneous and endothermic. The unit uptake ability of Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2 for 2,4-D and GP reached up to 249 mg·g-1 and 183 mg·g-1 from Langmuir model at 303 K, respectively. When solid-liquid ratio was 2 g·L-1, Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2 can reduce the content of 2,4-D or GP with the initial density of 100 mg·L-1 below the drinking water requirement limit. In addition, the reusability efficiency of Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2 towards 2,4-D and GP was found to be 86% and 80% using 5 mmol·L-1 NaOH as eluent. Analysis of simulated water samples indicated that Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2 could achieve the single or simultaneous removal of 2,4-D and GP from wastewater. Summarily, Fe3O4-UiO-66-NH2 as a green adsorbent can serve as an alternative for removing 2,4-D and GP from water body.

Abstract
Modified uncrosslinked and crosslinked chitosan derivatives were investigated as green sorbents for the removal of copper (Cu2+) and lead (Pb2+) cations from simulated solutions. In this regard, N, O carboxymethyl chitosan (N, O CMC), chitosan beads (Cs-g-GA), chitosan crosslinked with glutaraldehyde/methylene bisacrylamide (Cs/GA/MBA), and chitosan crosslinked with GA/epichlorohydrin (Cs/GA/ECH) were prepared and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy analyses. Atomic force microscopy investigation was carried out to compare the surface topography of the prepared samples before and after the metal uptake. The kinetics of the removal process were investigated by pseudo-first-order and -second-order models. Moreover, the adsorption isotherms were carefully studied by applying Langmuir and Freundlich models. The data reveal that upon adsorption of copper(II) metal ions, all chitosan-modified products followed the Langmuir isotherm except for Cs/GA/ECH which followed the Freundlich isotherms, and the highest adsorption capacity (q e) was obtained for Cs/GA/MBA due to the formation of stable chelate structures between the metal cation and the functional groups present on the modified chitosan product. The order of metal uptake at the optimum pH value is as follows: Cs/GA/MBA (Cu: 95.7 mg/g, Pb: 99.15 mg/g), Cs/GA/ECH (Cu: 80.4 mg/g, Pb: 93.14 mg/g), Cs-g-GA (Cu: 77 mg/g, Pb: 88.4 mg/g), and N, O CMCh (Cu: 30.2 mg/g, Pb: 44.8 mg/g). The AFM data confirmed the metal uptake process by comparing the roughness and height measurements of the free sorbents and the metal-loaded sorbents.

Abstract
Three zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) materials including ZIF-8 (H2O), ZIF-8 (methanol) and ZIF-L were synthesized and applied to the adsorption and detoxification of gossypol in cottonseed oil. The characterization results showed three ZIFs materials had good crystal structure, thermal stability and high specific surface area. The ZIFs materials had also good adsorption performance for gossypol and their adsorption processes can be described by the pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetic models. Adsorption isotherm analysis indicated that Langmuir model expressed a better conformity than Freundlich model, suggesting that the adsorption was the single-layer adsorption on a uniform site. Furthermore, the spiked experiment showed that the detoxification rate of ZIFs materials in vegetable oil was 72-86 %. A satisfied detoxification rate of 50-70 % was found in the detoxification experiment of real cottonseed oil samples. Therefore, these results demonstrate the great potential of using ZIFs materials as detoxification in cottonseed oil.

Abstract
New developments require innovative ecofriendly materials defined by their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and versatility. For that reason, the scientific society is focused on biopolymers such as chitosan, which is the second most abundant in the world after cellulose. These new materials should show good properties in terms of sustainability, circularity, and energy consumption during industrial applications. The idea is to replace traditional raw materials with new ecofriendly materials which contribute to keeping a high production rate but also reducing its environmental impact and the costs. The chitosan shows interesting and unique properties, thus it can be used for different purposes which contributes to the design and development of sustainable novel materials. This helps in promoting sustainability through the use of chitosan and diverse materials based on it. For example, it is a good sustainable alternative for food packaging or it can be used for sustainable agriculture. The chitosan can also reduce the pollution of other industrial processes such as paper production. This mini review collects some of the most important advances for the sustainable use of chitosan for promoting circular economy. Hence, the present review focuses on different aspects of chitosan from its synthesis to multiple applications.
