[PMID: 36780087 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-25710-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/14/2023]
Abstract
Biosorbent composites like chitin, alginate, moss, xanthene, and cotton can be derived from biotic species such as plants, algae, fungi, and bacteria which can be used for the exclusion of both organic and inorganic toxicants from sewage, industrial effluent, polluted soils, and many more. The use of composites in place of raw substrates like alginate and chitin increases the adsorption capacity as CS4CPL1 beads increase the adsorption capacity for copper and nickel from 66.7 mg/g and 15.3 mg/g in the case of alginate microsphere to 719.38 mg/g and 466.07 mg/g respectively. Biosorbent fabricated from algae Chlorella vulgaris having surface area of 12.1 m2/g and pore size of 13.7 nm owing to which it displayed a higher adsorption capacity for Pb 0.433 mmol/g indicating their potential as an efficient biosorbent material. This article contains detailed information related to heavy metals as well as biosorbent that includes different isotherms, kinetics, techniques to estimate heavy metal concentration, removal methods, and adverse health effects caused due to heavy metal pollution. Apart from the above recovery and reuse of biosorbent, correlation with the sustainable development goals has also been included.

Abstract
The interaction behaviors of heavy metals and micaceous minerals are extremely important to understand the environmental behaviors of heavy metals. In this work, the interaction behaviors of Cr(VI) and biotite in the presence and absence of HA were studied combining batch and spectroscopic approaches. Batch experiments showed that biotite had the ability to remove Cr(VI) from the water and the removal markedly increased with decreasing pH. However, sorption of total Cr onto biotite increased with increasing pH (2.0-4.0), whilst quickly decreased above pH ∼ 4.0. It was worth noting that redox process of Cr(VI) to Cr(III), caused by structural Fe(II) on biotite, was another important factor for the high removal of Cr(VI) in a pH range of 2.0-4.0. Ionic strength also influenced Cr(VI) removal that Cr(VI) removal became higher with increasing ion strength. The presence of HA did not show obvious macroscopic effect on Cr(VI) removal, however, HA could cover biotite surface, and promote the sorption of total Cr onto biotite and attenuate the reduction effect caused by Fe(II) on biotite. Spectroscopic approaches, like FT-IR, XRD and XPS further confirmed the existence of Cr(III) on biotite interacting with Cr(VI) and the reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) was drove by the Fe(II) dissolving from biotite to Fe(III). Further, sorption effect and reduction effect competitively contributed to the Cr(VI) removal by biotite, and reduction effect played a more important role at lower pH.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 305:114387.

Abstract
Composting is suitable for recycling livestock manure into valuable organic fertilizer, which can improve soil quality while mitigating potential risk of heavy metal pollution. Humic substances (HS) in compost have been demonstrated to play a key role in regulating the redistribution of heavy metal fractions. However, limited direct information have been reported on how different components of HS complexes with heavy metals to affect their bioavailability during composting. In this study, sequential extraction procedures (H2O, KCl, Na4P2O7, NaOH and HNO3) were used to assess the characteristics that HS bound with Cu and Zn during composting of swine manure and straw added either 5% boron waste (BW) or 5% phosphate rock (PR). Organically complexed fraction extracted by Na4P2O7 contained only 33-41% of the Cu but most of the Zn (81-87%). During composting, initially mobile fractions of Cu and Zn (extracted by H2O or KCl) changed into more stable fractions (extracted by NaOH and HNO3), and both organic matter and fulvic acids (FA) were identified as critical factors to explain this redistribution based on redundancy analysis. Over 80% of Cu and Zn were complexed with FA of HS. However, exogenous additives (phosphate rock and boron waste) enhanced Cu conversion by promoting humification (Humic acid/Fulvic acids, HA/FA) whereas they had limited influence on Zn, due to the relatively weak binding relationship between Zn and HA.

Abstract
The primary, most obvious parameter indicating water quality is the color of the water. Not only can it be aesthetically disturbing, but it can also be an indicator of contamination. Clean, high-quality water is a valuable, essential asset. Of the available technologies for removing dyes, adsorption is the most used method due to its ease of use, cost-effectiveness, and high efficiency. The adsorption process is influenced by several parameters, which are the basis of all laboratories researching the optimum conditions. The main objective of this review is to provide up-to-date information on the most studied influencing factors. The effects of initial dye concentration, pH, adsorbent dosage, particle size and temperature are illustrated through examples from the last five years (2017-2021) of research. Moreover, general trends are drawn based on these findings. The removal time ranged from 5 min to 36 h (E = 100% was achieved within 5-60 min). In addition, nearly 80% efficiency can be achieved with just 0.05 g of adsorbent. It is important to reduce adsorbent particle size (with Φ decrease E = 8-99%). Among the dyes analyzed in this paper, Methylene Blue, Congo Red, Malachite Green, Crystal Violet were the most frequently studied. Our conclusions are based on previously published literature.

Abstract
Adsorption process is considered as one of the most used separation and purification processes, in which adsorption occurs by the formation of the physical or chemical bonds between a porous solid medium and a mixture of liquid or gas multi-component fluid. By taking into consideration the equilibrium data and the adsorption properties of both the adsorbent and the adsorbate, adsorption isotherm models can describe the interaction mechanisms between the adsorbent and the adsorbate at constant temperature. Therefore, understanding modelling of the equilibrium data is a very essential way of predicting the adsorption mechanisms of various adsorption systems. Furthermore, adsorption isotherms in batch experiments can be used for the determination of the solid-water distribution coefficient (Kid). This review paper discusses the guidelines of using mono/multi-parametric isotherm models with different applications. The aim of this paper is to establish criteria for choosing the optimum isotherm model through a critical review of different adsorption models and the use of various mathematically error functions such as linear regression analysis, nonlinear regression analysis, and error functions for adsorption data optimization. In this paper, 15 mono-parametric adsorption isotherm models having one, two, three, four and five parameters were investigated. In addition, 10 multi-parameter isotherm models were reviewed as well as addressing their applications.

Abstract
The main aim of this work was to study the mechanisms of interaction between iron(II) ions and humic acids as a function of pH, iron concentration and various humic acids chemical properties, including the degree of humification, elemental composition, aromaticity and content of acidic functional groups. The results indicated that iron was bound by humic acids at pH 7 in amounts ∼2 times higher than at pH 5 (averaged capacities: 117 and 57 cmol/kg, respectively). Iron binding at pH 7 increased with increasing the total carboxylic and phenolic groups content and the degree of humification of humic acids (R-coefficients: 0.99 and 0.95, respectively). The stability of humic acid-iron complexes at pH 7 were only slightly lower than at pH 5 due to iron hydroxides formed at pH > 5 (averaged stability constants: 5.18 and 5.26, respectively). Iron coordination mode varied depending on pH: at pH 5, the bidentate (chelate) mode dominated, whereas at pH 7 the bridging mode appeared prevalent. The total amount of bound iron was much smaller than the content of the carboxylic and phenolic groups in humic acids, on average by ∼80 (pH 7) and ∼90.1% (pH 5) indicating the occurrence of steric effects in humic acid structure i.e. the reduction of the complexation capacity of free functional groups by adjacent groups occupied by iron and/or the formation of intramolecular aggregates with iron hindering the access of further metal ions. At pH 5 the complexes were soluble in the iron concentration range positively correlated to carboxylic and phenolic groups content, showing the protective nature of negatively charged functional groups on the stability of the solution. At this pH, the destabilization of the system was governed by the neutralization of humic acid charged structures by metal cations and the compression of the double electric layer. At pH 7 the stability of the humic acid-iron solution was largely determined by the form of iron, mainly by the precipitation of metal hydroxides acting as a flocculant destabilizing the solution by co-precipitation of humic acid-iron complexes.

Abstract
Copper (Cu) and norfloxacin (Nor) are frequently used as feed additives for animal growth promotion, which results in a great probability of Cu2+ and Nor coexisting in animal excretion and in soils. Sorption of Cu2+ and Nor on soil organic matter (SOM) can markedly affect their environmental fate. Thus, humic acid (HA), a major fraction of SOM, was chosen to investigate the cosorption behaviors of Cu2+ and Nor on HA under different solution chemistry conditions (pHs, ionic strengths, and foreign ions). The addition of Nor decreased the maximum adsorption capacity (Qm) of Cu2+ and an increasing effect was observed with increasing Nor concentration. Meanwhile, the addition of Cu2+ also markedly inhibited the sorption of Nor on HA. The Qm of Cu2+ increased with increasing pH from 3.0 to 5.0 whether Nor was present or not, but more addition of Nor led to less increment in Qm of Cu2+ at the same pH. The Qm of Nor was observed at pH 4.0 without Cu2+, but that was found at pH 5.0 and 3.0 with the addition of 20 and 100 mg L-1 Cu2+, respectively. The sorption of Cu2+ on HA decreased with increasing ionic strength and followed an order of NaH2PO4 > Na2SO4 ≈ NaNO3 at pH 5.0 whether Nor was present or not. Additionally, the higher valence cation had a stronger inhibition effect on Cu2+ sorption. The competition between Cu2+ and Nor for sorption on HA under the same conditions indicated that the coexistence of Cu2+ and Nor may enhance the feasibility of their mobility and environmental risk.

Abstract
Surface Tension (ST) of water solutions of humic acids extracted from volcanic ash derived soils (soil humic acids, S-HA), were measured under controlled conditions of pH (13.0), temperature (25 °C) and ionic strength (NaOH 0.1M) to establish the Critical Micellar Concentration (CMC). All S-HA were characterized by elemental analysis, acid-base titration, Transmission Electronic Microscopy (TEM) micrographs, isoelectric point (IEP) and solid state 13C-NMR. After that, these humic acids were evaluated as potential biomaterials to be used in mineral flotation processes, where a series of experiments were conducted at different S-HA and molybdenite ratio (from 0.2 to 50 g ton-1) establishing the IEP of all resultant materials. The use of solid state 13C-NMR enabled the following sequence of intensity distribution areas of S-HA to be established: O/N Alkyl>Alkyl C>Aromatic C>Carboxyl. The experimental values of ST and the calculated CMC (ranging from 0.8 to 3.3 g L-1) revealed that for S-HA no relationship between the abundance groups and their behavior as surfactant materials was observed. In relation with IEP determined for all materials, the highest surface charge, which can be useful for flotation processes, was obtained with 0.2 g of S-HA per ton of molybdenite. Additionally, TEM studies confirm the formation of pseudoaggregates for all the S-HA considered. Finally, the S-HA could be considered as an alternative to chemical products and commercial humic acids materials in mineral flotation processes.
