[PMID: 39094877 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134350] [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: 04/14/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 07/29/2024] [Indexed: 08/04/2024]
Abstract
In this study, a novel and cost-effective approach was employed to prepare an effective Pb(II) adsorbent. We synthesized highly porous CMCSB-SCB microbeads with multiple active binding sites by combining carboxymethylated chitosan Schiff base (CMCSB) and sugarcane bagasse (SCB). These microbeads were structurally and morphologically characterized using various physical, analytical, and microscopic techniques. The SEM image and N2-adsorption analysis of CMCSB-SCB revealed a highly porous structure with irregularly shaped voids and interconnected pores. The CMCSB-SCB microbeads demonstrated an impressive aqueous Pb(II) adsorption capacity, reaching a maximum of 318.21 mg/g, under identified optimal conditions: pH 4.5, 15 mg microbeads dosage, 30 min contact time, and Pb(II) initial concentration (350 mg/L). The successful adsorption of Pb(II) onto CMCSB-SCB beads was validated using FTIR, EDX, and XPS techniques. Furthermore, the experimental data fitting indicated a good agreement with the Langmuir model (R2 = 0.99633), whereas the adsorption kinetics aligned well with the pseudo-second-order model (R2 = 0.99978). The study also identified the Pb(II) adsorption mechanism by CMCSB-SCB microbeads as monolayer chemisorption.

Abstract
The current study tries to find the impact of the integration of laccase enzyme (Lac) onto magnetized chitosan (Cs) nanoparticles composed of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 NPs) (Fe3O4/Cs/MoS2/Lac NPs) on the removal of AFM1 in milk samples. The Fe3O4/Cs/MoS2/Lac NPs were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, BET, TEM, FESEM, EDS, PSA, and VSM analysis. The cytotoxic activity of the synthesized nanoparticles in different concentrations was evaluated using the MTT method. The results show that the synthesized nanoparticles don't have cytotoxic activity at concentrations less than 20 mg/l. The ability of the prepared nanoparticles to remove AFM1 was compared by bare laccase enzyme, MoS2, and Fe3O4/Cs/MoS2 composite, indicating that the Fe3O4/Cs/MoS2/Lac NPs the highest adsorption efficiency toward AFM1. Besides, the immobilization efficiency of laccase with a concentration range of 0.5-2.0 was investigated, indicating that the highest activity recovery of 96.8% was obtained using 2 mg/ml laccase loading capacity. The highest removal percentage of AFM1 (68.5%) in the milk samples was obtained by the Fe3O4/Cs/MoS2/Lac NPs at a contact time of 1 h. As a result, Fe3O4/MoS2/Cs/Lac NPs can potentially be utilized as an effective sorbent with high capacity and selectivity to remove AFM1 from milk samples.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133878.

Abstract
The adsorption efficiency of cheap, ecofriendly, and easily available agro-waste, Trapa natans (Chestnut) and Citrullus lanatus (Watermelon) peels, has been investigated in their native forms (TNAT and CLAN) as well as citric acid impregnated forms (C-TNAT and C-CLAN), respectively, for the detoxification of toxic, deleterious, and carcinogenic Eosin yellow dye (EYD) from wastewater streams. Different operational parameters were optimized for the investigation of isothermal, kinetic and the thermodynamic models. R2 for sportive decontamination of Eosin by citric acid treated adsorbents were close to one, supporting the applicability of Langmuir, Temkin, and pseudo-second-order in this investigation. Maximum sorption capabilities were 222 and 667 mg/g for chemically treated bio-waste C-TNAT and C-CLAN, respectively, reflecting their efficient and promising performance, while Gibbs free energy revealed exothermic and spontaneous adsorption behavior. The kinetic statics for qe (cal) are quite close to qe (exp), indicating the viability and fitness of pseudo-second-order mechanisms. The present study suggests that both citric acid fabricated bio-waste C-TNAT and C-CLAN can be substantially employed to decontaminate persistent organic pollutants, like: Eosin yellow dye from wastewater using green approach to resolve socio-economic problems of developing countries.

Employing a magnetic chitosan/molybdenum disulfide nanocomposite for efficiently removing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from milk samples. Sci Rep 2024; 14:15054. [PMID: 38956159 PMCID: PMC11220064 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-66087-w] [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: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/04/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to develop a highly efficient nanocomposite composed of magnetic chitosan/molybdenum disulfide (CS/MoS2/Fe3O4) for the removal of three polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)-pyrene, anthracene, and phenanthrene. Novelty was introduced through the innovative synthesis procedure and the utilization of magnetic properties for enhanced adsorption capabilities. Additionally, the greenness of chitosan as a sorbent component was emphasized, highlighting its biodegradability and low environmental impact compared to traditional sorbents. Factors influencing PAH adsorption, such as nanocomposite dosage, initial PAH concentration, pH, and contact time, were systematically investigated and optimized. The results revealed that optimal removal efficiencies were attained at an initial PAH concentration of 150 mg/L, a sorbent dose of 0.045 g, pH 6.0, and a contact time of 150 min. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model exhibited superior fitting to the experimental data, indicating an equilibrium time of approximately 150 min. Moreover, the equilibrium adsorption process followed the Freundlich isotherm model, with kf and n values exceeding 7.91 mg/g and 1.20, respectively. Remarkably, the maximum absorption capacities for phenanthrene, anthracene, and pyrene on the sorbent were determined as 217 mg/g, 204 mg/g, and 222 mg/g, respectively. These findings underscore the significant potential of the CS/MoS2/Fe3O4 nanocomposite for efficiently removing PAHs from milk and other dairy products, thereby contributing to improved food safety and public health.

Abstract
This study presents the adsorption properties of a bioinspired grafted mesoporous silica material and the competitive effects between Cd(II) or Cu(II) and Pb(II) during the adsorption process. Glutathione, a natural antioxidant known for its metal binding properties, has been successfully grafted to SBA-15 mesoporous silica and the optimum adsorption parameters were determined. This original and multidisciplinary approach combines classical adsorption studies with thermodynamic investigations to understand the adsorption behavior of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) on this material. To this end, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) has been used to elucidate the mechanisms of single-metal and two-metal adsorption. The results showed affinity in the order Pb(II) > Cu(II) > Cd(II) in single metal systems. Cd(II) adsorption relied mainly on physical contributions while Cu(II) and Pb(II) adsorption was shown to be chemically driven. Two-metal systems highlighted that Cd(II) and Pb(II) are adsorbed on the same coordination sites, whereas Cu(II) and Pb(II) are adsorbed on different sites. The material showed good selectivity and encouraging results were obtained on real effluents.

Abstract
Analysis of food additives is highly significant in the food industry and directly related to human health. This investigation into the removal efficiency of sunset yellow as an azo dye in fruit juices using Chitosan-nickel ferrite nanoparticles (Cs@NiFe2O4 NPs). The nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized using various techniques. The effective parameters for removing sunset yellow were optimized using the response surface methodology (RSM) based on the central composite design (CCD). Under the optimum conditions, the highest removal efficiency (94.90%) was obtained for the initial dye concentration of 26.48 mg L-1 at a pH of 3.87, a reaction time of 67.62 min, and a nanoparticle dose of 0.038 g L-1. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model had a better fit for experimental data (R2 = 0.98) than the other kinetic models. The equilibrium adsorption process followed the Freundlich isotherm model with a maximum adsorption capacity of 212.766 mg g-1. The dye removal efficiency achieved for industrial and traditional fruit juice samples (91.75% and 93.24%), respectively, confirmed the method's performance, feasibility, and efficiency. The dye adsorption efficiency showed no significant decrease after five recycling, indicating that the sorbent has suitable stability in practical applications. variousThe synthesized nanoparticles can be suggested as an efficient sorbent to remove the sunset yellow dye from food products.

Simultaneous removal of four aflatoxins using magnetic nanobentonite as a green and fast sorbent: kinetic, thermodynamic, and isotherm investigation. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:110515-110527.

Abstract
In the study, an adsorptive removal strategy as a straightforward and fast procedure was developed to remove four aflatoxins, including aflatoxin B1 (AF-B1), aflatoxin B2 (AF-B2), aflatoxin G1 (AF-G1), and aflatoxin G2 (AF-G2). A simple and green sorbent consisting of two components (activated nanobentonite and Fe3O4 nanoparticles) was synthesized based on three steps using acidic treatment, ultrasonic procedure, and chemical precipitation method. The sorbent was characterized by several techniques such as FTIR, FESEM, TEM, XRD, and VSM to determine the sorbent structure and morphology. An experimental design based on a central composite design was utilized to optimize factors in the removal of AFs. The optimum values of the factors (pH, sorbent amount, shaking rate) were 6.8, 0.076 g, and 160 rpm, respectively. Three models, including pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intra-particle diffusion models, were used to investigate the kinetics of the removal process. The removal of AFs using magnetic nanobentonite was fitted with the pseudo-second-order model better than other models with an equilibrium time lower than 30 min. The thermodynamic data show that the adsorption of AFs on the sorbent is a spontaneous and feasible process due to negative values of the Gibbs-free energy change (ΔG) at different temperatures. Two models (Langmuir and Freundlich models) were chosen to study the isotherm of the removal procedure, indicating that the Freundlich model describes the results better than the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacity of the sorbent for removing AF-B1, AF-B2, AF-G1, and AF-G2 is 357.14, 400.0, 370.37, and 400.0 mg g-1, respectively. The sorbent reusability was also evaluated to study the sorbent's ability for the removal of AFs, indicating that the sorbent was used for 5 cycles without a significant reduction in the ability to remove AFs.

Abstract
Herein, NaP and LTA zeolites were successfully synthesised from woody biomass ash with alkali fusion-assisted hydrothermal method by altering the NaOH/ash ratio, crystallisation time and crystallisation temperature. In order to reduce the synthesis costs, NaP zeolite was synthesised with no additional source of aluminium and silicon. The synthesised zeolites were utilized for the monocomponent and simultaneous adsorption of Cu(II), Cd(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II) ions. The maximum adsorbed amount of metals had the trend Pb(II) > Cu(II) > Cd(II) > Zn(II) for both NaP and LTA zeolite. The kinetic data fit well to the pseudo-second order model indicating that chemisorption is the rate-limiting step. The isotherm data were well described with Sips and Redlich-Peterson models indicating a non-ideal heterogeneous adsorption process. Maximum adsorption capacity of NaP zeolite was 42.9 mg/g for Cu(II) and 117.3 mg/g for Cd(II), while LTA had 140.1 mg/g and 223.5 mg/g for Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions, respectively.

Abstract
As copper and its compounds are of fundamental importance for the development of innovative materials, the synthesis of composites intended for water purification was undertaken in which submicron copper containing particles were dispersed within the matrix of a strongly basic anion exchanger, with a macroporous and gel-like structure. Due to their trimethylammonium functional groups, the host materials alone exhibited an affinity to anionic water contaminants and antimicrobial properties. The introduction of such particles as CuO, Cu2O, metallic Cu, CuO/FeO(OH), Cu4O3, Cu(OH)2, Cu4(OH)6SO4, Cu2(OH)3Cl increased these properties and demonstrated new properties. The composites were obtained unconventionally, in ambient conditions, using eco-friendly reagents. Alternative synthesis methods were compared and optimized, as a result of which a new group of hybrid ion exchangers was created (HIXs) containing 3.5-12.5 wt% of Cu. As the arrangement of the inorganic phase in the resin matrix was atypical, i.e., close to the surface of the beads, the obtained HIXs exhibited excellent kinetic properties in the process of oxidation and adsorption of As(III), as well as catalytic properties for the synthesis of triazoles via click reaction, and also antimicrobial properties in relation to Gram-positive Enterococcus faecalis and Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli, preventing biofilm formation. Using thermogravimetry, the effect of the inorganic phase on decomposition of the polymeric phase was evaluated for the first time and comprehensively, confirming the relationship and finding numerous regularities. It was also found that, depending on the oxidation state (CuO, Cu2O, Cu), copper-containing particles affected the textural properties of the polymeric phase endowing a tighter structure, limiting the porosity and reducing the affinity for water.

Abstract
CONTEXT The co-adsorption of sulfate and metal ions on intrinsic and Al-doped graphene is investigated through first principles calculations. When SO42- ions exist only, both of intrinsic and Al-doped graphene can form stable adsorption configurations with SO42-. However, the presence of Cu2+/Ca2+/Zn2+/Mg2+ ions attenuates the interaction between intrinsic graphene and SO42-, resulting in weak physical adsorption between them, while Al-doped graphene can still constitute co-adsorption chemically with both SO42- and Cu2+/Ca2+/Zn2+/Mg2+ ions simultaneously. The sensitivity of Al-doped graphene towards co-adsorbed ions is in the order of SO42--Cu2+ > SO42--Zn2+ > SO42--Ca2+ > SO42--Mg2+. The research indicates Al-doped graphene could be a promising material for sensing sulfate ions under the presence of various metal ions. METHODS All of the calculations were carried out by using a first principles method based on density functional theory (DFT). The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) functional was selected to describe electron exchange-correlation energy. The double numerical plus polarization (DNP) was employed as the basis set. The conductor-like screening model (COSMO) was implemented to simulate the aqueous solvent effect.

Abstract
In this research, molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is used to investigate the efficiency of carbon nanotubes (CNT) and boron nitride nanotubes (BNNT) in removing lead ions from contaminated waters. Then the effect of functionalizing nanotubes with -COO- and COOH- functional groups and the nanotubes' absorption performance of two different concentrations of lead ions are studied. To better evaluate adsorption process, the set of descriptors, such as interaction energies, radial distribution function, etc., are calculated. The MD results show that the absorption performance is significantly improved by modifying the surface of CNT and BNNT with functional groups. In addition, the adsorption capacity increases in higher concentrations of Pb ions at BNNTCOO- and CNTCOOH systems. The interaction energy of BNNTCOO- with a concentration of 50 lead ions is - 2879.28 kJ/mol, which is about 106 kJ/mol more negative than BNNTCOO- at a concentration of 20 lead ions. Also, it is observed that the functionalization of both nanotubes with -COO- increases their absorption capacity. The obtained results from this study provide significant information about the mechanisms of lead adsorption on the surface of nanotubes.

Optimization and prediction of lead removal from aqueous solution using FO-MD hybrid process: Statistical and artificial intelligence analysis. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 337:117731. [PMID: 36933539 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.117731] [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: 02/09/2023] [Revised: 03/03/2023] [Accepted: 03/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Heavy metals (HMs) has become one of the most serious pollutants that are harmful to the environment and ecology. This paper focused on the removal of lead contaminant from wastewater by forward osmosis-membrane distillation (FO-MD) hybrid process using seawater as draw solution. Modeling, optimization, and prediction of FO performance are developed using complementary approach based on response surface methodology (RSM) and an artificial neural network (ANN). FO process optimization using RSM revealed that under initial lead concentration of 60 mg/L, feed velocity of 11.57 cm/s and draw velocity of 7.66 cm/s, FO process achieved highest water flux of 6.75 LMH, lowest reverse salt flux of 2.78 gMH and highest lead removal efficiency of 87.07%. Fitness of all models was evaluated based on determination coefficient (R2) and mean square error (MSE). Results showed highest R2 value up to 0.9906 and lowest RMSE value up to 0.0102. ANN modeling generates the highest prediction accuracy for water flux and reverse salt flux, while RSM produces the highest prediction accuracy for lead removal efficiency. Subsequently, FO optimal conditions are applied on FO-MD hybrid process using seawater as draw solution and evaluate their performance to simultaneously remove lead contaminant and desalination of seawater. Results displays that FO-MD process shows a highly efficient solution to produce fresh water with almost free heavy metals and very low conductivity.

Abstract
Tramadol is an analgesic drug that is mainly excreted in the urine. The entry of Tramadol into water samples causes their biological contamination. Therefore, three catalysts such as bismuth ferrite, cobalt-doped bismuth ferrite, and a magnetized Keggin type of polyoxometalate (α-Fe2O3@phosphotungstic acid), were synthesized as photocatalysts to degrade Tramadol in water samples. The morphology and properties of the prepared photocatalysts were evaluated using several techniques. Effects of several factors, including tramadol concentration, pH, hydrogen peroxide concentration, and photocatalyst amount, were studied and optimized by a design experiment procedure based on Box-Behnken design for reducing the number of experiments and cost and investigating the interactions between factors in the photocatalytic degradation process of Tramadol. These factors were optimized for each prepared photocatalyst individually. Under the optimum conditions, the percentages of tramadol degradation and kinetics of the degradation process were evaluated in the presence of each photocatalyst. The tramadol degradation percentages using bismuth ferrite, cobalt-doped bismuth ferrite, and α-Fe2O3 @phosphotungstic acid were 81.10% for 120 min, 90.63% for 80 min, and 91.32% for 80 min, respectively. The rate constants of tramadol degradation were 0.0145, 0.0329, and 0.0312 min-1 for bismuth ferrite, cobalt-doped bismuth ferrite, and α-Fe2O3 @phosphotungstic acid, respectively. The results indicated the highest percentage of tramadol degradation and rate of the degradation process were obtained using α-Fe2O3 @phosphotungstic acid and cobalt-doped bismuth ferrite, respectively.

Abstract
Fungi make a fundamental contribution to several biotechnological processes, including brewing, winemaking, and the production of enzymes, organic acids, alcohols, antibiotics, and pharmaceuticals. The present review explores the biotechnological importance of the filamentous yeast-like fungus Geotrichum candidum, a ubiquitous species known for its use as a starter in the dairy industry. To uncover G. candidum's biotechnological role, we performed a search for related work through the scientific indexing internet services, Web of Science and Google Scholar. The following query was used: Geotrichum candidum, producing about 6500 scientific papers from 2017 to 2022. From these, approximately 150 that were associated with industrial applications of G. candidum were selected. Our analysis revealed that apart from its role as a starter in the dairy and brewing industries, this species has been administered as a probiotic nutritional supplement in fish, indicating improvements in developmental and immunological parameters. Strains of this species produce a plethora of biotechnologically important enzymes, including cellulases, β-glucanases, xylanases, lipases, proteases, and α-amylases. Moreover, strains that produce antimicrobial compounds and that are capable of bioremediation were identified. The findings of the present review demonstrate the importance of G. candidum for agrifood- and bio-industries and provide further insights into its potential future biotechnological roles.

Application of covalent organic frameworks and metal–organic frameworks nanomaterials in organic/inorganic pollutants removal from solutions through sorption-catalysis strategies. CARBON RESEARCH 2023; 2:8. [DOI: doi.org/10.1007/s44246-023-00041-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/25/2023]
Abstract
AbstractWith the fast development of agriculture, industrialization and urbanization, large amounts of different (in)organic pollutants are inevitably discharged into the ecosystems. The efficient decontamination of the (in)organic contaminants is crucial to human health and ecosystem pollution remediation. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted multidisciplinary research interests because of their outstanding physicochemical properties like high stability, large surface areas, high sorption capacity or catalytic activity. In this review, we summarized the recent works about the elimination/extraction of organic pollutants, heavy metal ions, and radionuclides by MOFs and COFs nanomaterials through the sorption-catalytic degradation for organic chemicals and sorption-catalytic reduction-precipitation-extraction for metals or radionuclides. The interactions between the (in)organic pollutants and COFs/MOFs nanomaterials at the molecular level were discussed from the density functional theory calculation and spectroscopy analysis. The sorption of organic chemicals was mainly dominated by electrostatic attraction, π-π interaction, surface complexation and H-bonding interaction, whereas the sorption of radionuclides and metal ions was mainly attributed to surface complexation, ion exchange, reduction and incorporation reactions. The porous structures, surface functional groups, and active sites were important for the sorption ability and selectivity. The doping or co-doping of metal/nonmetal, or the incorporation with other materials could change the visible light harvest and the generation/separation of electrons/holes (e−/h+) pairs, thereby enhanced the photocatalytic activity. The challenges for the possible application of COFs/MOFs nanomaterials in the elimination of pollutants from water were described in the end.

Abstract
Water consumption has grown in recent years due to rising urbanization and industry. As a result, global water stocks are steadily depleting. As a result, it is critical to seek strategies for removing harmful elements from wastewater once it has been cleaned. In recent years, many studies have been conducted to develop new materials and innovative pathways for water purification and environmental remediation. Due to low energy consumption, low operating cost, and integrated facilities, membrane separation has gained significant attention as a potential technique for water treatment. In these directions, MXene which is the advanced 2D material has been explored and many applications were reported. However, research on MXene-based membranes is still in its early stages and reported applications are scatter. This review provides a broad overview of MXenes and their perspectives, including their synthesis, surface chemistry, interlayer tuning, membrane construction, and uses for water purification. Application of MXene based membrane for extracting pollutants such as heavy metals, organic contaminants, and radionuclides from the aqueous water bodies were briefly discussed. Furthermore, the performance of MXene-based separation membranes is compared to that of other nano-based membranes, and outcomes are very promising. In order to shed more light on the advancement of MXene-based membranes and their operational separation applications, significant advances in the fabrication of MXene-based membranes is also encapsulated. Finally, future prospects of MXene-based materials for diverse applications were discussed.

Abstract
A highly efficient adsorbent functionalized with phosphate groups made from a local agricultural waste, ramie stalk, was designed for Zn2+ removal from water. SEM, EDS, FTIR, zeta potential, and XPS tests were used to study the morphology and properties of modified ramie stalk (RS-P). The results showed that the phosphate groups were successfully grafted to the surface of the ramie stalk, which has a multilayered and porous structure and can provide large adsorption sites. Adsorption performance and mechanism were investigated in the static and dynamic adsorption experiments. The adsorption kinetics of Zn2+ by RS-P were better fitted by the pseudo-second-order model, indicating chemical adsorption. Adsorption isotherm was better described by Redlich-Peterson isotherm, which suggested heterogeneous and multi-site adsorption, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 0.558 mmol g-1. The characterization of adsorbents before and after adsorption indicated that a combined action of electrostatic interaction and ion exchange was the primary mechanism of adsorption. Dynamic adsorption experiments with fixed-bed column displayed excellent water treatment capabilities. RS-P exhibited good reusability in 5 cycles without much deterioration in its adsorption performances. Complex co-existing ions impaired Zn2+ adsorption during real wastewater treatment. This research benefits agricultural waste recycling and provides safe water to ensure economic, social, and environmental sustainability.

Abstract
In the present study, a magnetically separable adsorbent, manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4)/sugarcane bagasse biochar magnetic composites (MFSCBB-MCs), was fabricated through a one-step pyrolysis method. The characterization of the prepared adsorbents indicated that MnFe2O4 nanoparticles were successfully embedded into the biochar matrix, offering magnetic separability and increasing the negative charges on the surface relative to the pristine biochar. Batch adsorption tests indicated that the adsorption of lead on MFSCBB-MCs was pH- and dose-dependent. The experimental results were effectively fitted using the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R 2 > 0.99) and the Langmuir isotherm equation (R 2 > 0.99), indicating the main chemisorption pathway and monolayer coverage process. Meanwhile, lead adsorption was found to be spontaneous and endothermic, as shown by the study of thermodynamic parameters. The maximum capacity, q m, calculated from the Langmuir model was 155.21 mg·g-1 at 25 °C, demonstrating excellent adsorption capability compared with several previously reported bagasse adsorbents. Based on adsorption mechanism analysis, physical adsorption, electrostatic attraction, and complexation were all involved in the lead(II) adsorption process on MFSCBB-MCs. Furthermore, the adsorbent was easily regenerated as indicated by the high magnetic separation and chemical desorption potential after five cycles, so it is a cost-effective and environmentally favorable adsorbent for wastewater lead removal.

Abstract
This study evaluated the synthesis of novel binary functionaladsorbent based on sporopollenin, magnetic nanoparticles, and polyaniline to produce MSP-PANI. The MSP-PANI was applied to enhance uptake of lead ions (Pb2+) from wastewater samples. The functionalities, surface morphology, magnetic properties, and elemental composition of the newly synthesized nanocomposite were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), vibration sample magnetometer (VSM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), respectively. The experimental condition for the adsorption process was MSP/PANI ratio 1:1, pH ∼6, adsorbent dosage 40 mg, and contact time 90 min at room temperature. Under the proposed condition, lead ions removal were obtained as 83%, 88% and 95% for MSPE, PANI, and MSP/PANI, respectively. Based on the experimental and predicted data, the adsorption was corresponded to the psudo-second-order (R2 = 0.999) kinetics model, and the adsorption equilibrium corresponded to the Langmuir model (R2 = 0.996). Langmuir isotherm showed the maximum adsorption capacity of MSP-PANI for lead ions was 163 mg/g and followed the monolayer pattern. Hence, thermodynamic model under Van't Hoff equation suggested that the adsorption mechanism was physio-sorption with endothermic nature. Therefore, this research can help the researchers to use magnetic nanoparticles for lead removal in highly polluted areas.

Abstract
Phosphorus is one of the main nutrients required for all life. Phosphorus as phosphate form plays an important role in different cellular processes. Entrance of phosphorus in the environment leads to serious ecological problems including water quality problems and soil pollution. Furthermore, it may cause eutrophication as well as harmful algae blooms (HABs) in aquatic environments. Several physical, chemical, and biological methods have been presented for phosphorus removal and recovery. In this review, there is an overview of phosphorus role in nature provided, available removal processes are discussed, and each of them is explained in detail. Chemical precipitation, ion exchange, membrane separation, and adsorption can be listed as the most used methods. Identifying advantages of these technologies will allow the performance of phosphorus removal systems to be updated, optimized, evaluate the treatment cost and benefits, and support select directions for further action. Two main applications of biochar and nanoscale materials are recommended.

Abstract
The contamination of microplastics in aquatic environment is regarded as a serious threat to ecosystem especially to aquatic environment. Microplastic pollution associated problems including their bioaccumulation and ecological risks have become a major concern of the public and scientific community. The removal of microplastics from their discharge points is an effective way to mitigate the adverse effects of microplastic pollution, hence has been the central of the research in this realm. Presently, most of the commonly used water or wastewater treatment technologies are capable of removing microplastic to certain extent, although they are not intentionally installed for this reason. Nevertheless, recognizing the adverse effects posed by microplastic pollution, more efforts are still desired to enhance the current microplastic removal technologies. With their structural multifunctionalities and flexibility, nanomaterials have been increasingly used for water and wastewater treatment to improve the treatment efficiency. Particularly, the unique features of nanomaterials have been harnessed in synthesizing high performance adsorbent and photocatalyst for microplastic removal from aqueous environment. This review looks into the potentials of nanomaterials in offering constructive solutions to resolve the bottlenecks and enhance the efficiencies of the existing materials used for microplastic removal. The current efforts and research direction of which studies can dedicate to improve microplastic removal from water environment with the augmentation of nanomaterial-enabled strategies are discussed. The progresses made to date have witnessed the benefits of harnessing the structural and dimensional advantages of nanomaterials to enhance the efficiency of existing microplastic treatment processes to achieve a more sustainable microplastic cleanup.

Abstract
Sample pretreatment in analytical chemistry is critical, and the selection of materials for sample pretreatment is a key factor for high enrichment ability, good practicality, and satisfactory recoveries. In this review, the recent progress of the sample pretreatment methods based on various nanomaterials (i.e., carbon nanomaterials, porous nanomaterials, and magnetic nanomaterials) with excellent adsorption efficiency, selectivity, and reproducibility, as well as their applications, are presented. Due to the unique nanoscale physical–chemical properties, magnetic nanomaterials have been used for the extraction of target analytes by easy-to-handle magnetic separation under a magnetic field, which can avoid cumbersome centrifugation and filtration steps. This review also highlights the preparation process and reaction mechanism of nanomaterials used in the sample pretreatment methods, which have been applied for the extraction organophosphorus pesticides, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, phenoxy carboxylic acids, tetracycline antibiotics, hazardous metal ions, and rosmarinic acid. In addition, the remaining challenges and future directions for nanomaterials used as sorbents in the sample pretreatment are discussed.

Abstract
Environmental pollution has accelerated and intensified because of the acceleration of industrialization, therefore fabricating excellent materials to remove hazardous pollutants has become inevitable. MXenes as emerging transition metal nitrides, carbides or carbonitrides with high conductivity, hydrophilicity, excellent structural stability, and versatile surface chemistry, become ideal candidates for water purification and environmental remediation. Particularly, MXenes reveal excellent sorption capability and efficient reduction performance for various contaminants of wastewater. In this regard, a comprehensive understanding of the removal behaviors of MXene-based nanomaterials is necessary to explain how they remove various pollutants in water. The eliminate process of MXene-based nanomaterials is collectively influenced by the physicochemical properties of the materials themselves and the chemical properties of different contaminants. Therefore, in this review paper, the synthesis strategies and properties of MXene-based nanomaterials are briefly introduced. Then, the chemical properties, removal behaviors and interaction mechanisms of heavy metal ions, radionuclides, and organic pollutants by MXene-based nanomaterials are highlighted. The overview also emphasizes associated toxicity, secondary contamination, the challenges, and prospects of the MXene-based nanomaterials in the applications of water treatment. This review can supply valuable ideas for fabricating versatile MXene nanomaterials in eliminating water pollution.

Abstract
This study is aimed at comparing the use of zinc oxide (ZnO), titanium dioxide (TiO2), and aluminium oxide (Al2O3) for removing lead ions from water through adsorption. The point of zero charge was obtained for ZnO, TiO2, and Al2O3 and was found to be 7.3, 7.1, and 9.0, respectively. The effect of pH, adsorbent dose, contact time, initial concentrations, and temperature was investigated in batch experiments. The optimal conditions obtained were 7, 2 g/L, 120 mins, 100 ppm, and 41°C, respectively, where the optimal removal efficiencies were 98.43%, 96.45%, and 85.50% for ZnO, TiO2, and Al2O3, respectively. In addition, analyses of adsorption kinetics, mechanisms, isotherms, and thermodynamics were performed. The adsorption kinetics of Pb(II) were compared to popular models, and it was found that the pseudo-second-order (PSO) model best fitted the Pb(II) uptake for all adsorbents at correlation coefficient (
). The adsorption isotherms of Pb(II) were also compared to popular models, and it was found that the Pb(II) uptake by TiO2 and ZnO was well-described by the Langmuir model (
) with maximum adsorption capacities of 55.04 and 58.88 mg/g, respectively. On the other hand, the behaviour of Al2O3 is described more accurately by the Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) model (
), and the maximum adsorption capacity was 53.64 mg/g. The isotherm analysis proved that the limiting step of the adsorption process is the film diffusion mechanism. In addition, studying the heat of adsorption of Pb(II) implied that the adsorption is endothermic due to the positive values of enthalpy (
) for all adsorbents. The absorbents were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) to study the morphology of surfaces and the chemical characterization of the adsorbents to ensure that adsorption is achieved. ZnO showed better performance for the uptake of lead followed by TiO2 then Al2O3.

Abstract
Water contamination is an environmental burden for the next generations, calling for advanced methods such as adsorption to remove pollutants. For instance, unwanted biowaste and invasive plants can be converted into biosorbents for environmental remediation. This would partly solve the negative effects of invasive plants, estimated at 120 billion dollars in the USA. Here we review the distribution, impact, and use of invasive plants for water treatment, with emphasis on the preparation of biosorbents and removal of pollutants such as cadmium, lead, copper, zinc, nickel, mercury, chromate, synthetic dyes, and fossil fuels. Those biosorbents can remove 90-99% heavy metals from aqueous solutions. High adsorption capacities of 476.190 mg/g for synthetic dyes and 211 g/g for diesel oils have been observed. We also discuss the regeneration of these biosorbents.

Abstract
There is nothing more fundamental than clean potable water for living beings next to air. On the other hand, wastewater management is cropping up as a challenging task day-by-day due to lots of new additions of novel pollutants as well as the development of infrastructures and regulations that could not maintain its pace with the burgeoning escalation of populace and urbanizations. Therefore, momentous approaches must be sought-after to reclaim fresh water from wastewaters in order to address this great societal challenge. One of the routes is to clean wastewater through treatment processes using diverse adsorbents. However, most of them are unsustainable and quite costly e.g. activated carbon adsorbents, etc. Quite recently, innovative, sustainable, durable, affordable, user and eco-benevolent Geopolymer composites have been brought into play to serve the purpose as a pretty novel subject matter since they can be manufactured by a simple process of Geopolymerization at low temperature, lower energy with mitigated carbon footprints and marvellously, exhibit outstanding properties of physical and chemical stability, ion-exchange, dielectric characteristics, etc., with a porous structure and of course lucrative too because of the incorporation of wastes with them, which is in harmony with the goal to transit from linear to circular economy, i.e., "one's waste is the treasure for another". For these reasons, nowadays, this ground-breaking inorganic class of amorphous alumina-silicate materials are drawing the attention of the world researchers for designing them as adsorbents for water and wastewater treatment where the chemical nature and structure of the materials have a great impact on their adsorption competence. The aim of the current most recent state-of-the-art and scientometric review is to comprehend and assess thoroughly the advancements in geo-synthesis, properties and applications of geopolymer composites designed for the elimination of hazardous contaminants viz., heavy metal ions, dyes, etc. The adsorption mechanisms and effects of various environmental conditions on adsorption efficiency are also taken into account for review of the importance of Geopolymers as most recent adsorbents to get rid of the death-defying and toxic pollutants from wastewater with a view to obtaining reclaimed potable and sparkling water for reuse offering to trim down the massive crisis of scarcity of water promoting sustainable water and wastewater treatment for greener environments. The appraisal is made on the performance estimation of Geopolymers for water and wastewater treatment along with the three-dimensional printed components are characterized for mechanical, physical and chemical attributes, permeability and Ammonium (NH4+) ion removal competence of Geopolymer composites as alternative adsorbents for sequestration of an assortment of contaminants during wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Polyelectrolyte composite nanospheres are relatively new adsorbents which have attracted much attention for their efficient pollutant removal and reuse performance. A novel polyelectrolyte nanosphere with magnetic function (SA@AM) was synthesized via the electrostatic reaction between the polyanionic sodium alginate (SA) and the surface of a prepared terminal amino-based magnetic nanoparticles (AMs). SA@AM showed a size of 15-22 nm with 6.85 emu·g-1 of magnetization value, exhibiting a high adsorption capacity on Pb(II) ions representing a common heavy metal pollutant, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 105.8 mg g-1. The Langmuir isotherm adsorption fits the adsorption curve, indicating uniform adsorption of Pb(II) on the SA@AM surfaces. Repeated adsorption desorption experiments showed that the removal ratio of Pb(II) by SA@AM was more than 76%, illustrating improved regeneration performance. These results provide useful information for the production of bio-based green magnetic nano scale adsorption materials for environmental remediation applications.

[PMID: 33735679 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2021.112245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2020] [Revised: 01/05/2021] [Accepted: 02/20/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
In the last decades, phosphate is considered the main cause of eutrophication and has received substantial attention from the scientific community. Phosphate is a major pollutant that deteriorates water quality, which has been increasing in water resources, primarily due to the increasing global population and corresponding activities. Adsorption technology is amongst the different technologies used to decrease the phosphate levels in water, and has been found to be highly effective even at low phosphate concentrations. Carbonaceous materials and their composites have been widely used for phosphate removal due to their exceptional surface properties and high phosphate sorption capacity. Considering the importance of the topic, this study reviews the reported literature in the field of adsorptive removal of phosphate over various carbon-based adsorbents such as activated carbon, charcoal, graphene, graphene oxide, graphite and carbon nanotubes. Moreover, insights into the adsorption behaviour, experimental parameters, mechanisms, thermodynamics, effect of coexisting ions and the possible desorption processes of phosphate onto modified and unmodified carbonaceous adsorbents are also considered. Finally, research challenges and gaps have been highlighted.

Abstract
Graphene stratiform membrane materials have been recently applied to heavy metal removal in aqueous systems via adsorption due to their high mechanical strength, chemical stability, and other properties. We applied reduced graphene oxide (rGO) alone as an adsorbent to remove heavy metal ions from wastewater. Self-supported rGO membrane was prepared using a green reduction method with sodium hydrosulfite. We used the Raman spectra to observe the structure of the rGO membrane. The morphology of the self-supported membrane was measured by a scanning electron microscope. The Cu2+ adsorption performance was measured in terms of pH, reaction time, metal ion concentration, and temperature. The maximum Cu2+ adsorption capacity of the rGO membrane was found to be 149.25 mg/g. The adsorption process followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and adsorption isotherms were simulated by the Freundlich model.

Abstract
Tetracyclines are extensively used to treat human and animal infectious diseases due to its effective antimicrobial activities. About 70-90% of its parent materials are released into the environment through urine and feces, implying they are the most frequently detected antibiotics in the environment with high ecological risks. Adsorption and photocatalysis have been promising techniques for the removal of tetracyclines due to effectiveness and efficiency. Graphene-based materials provide promising platforms for adsorptive and photocatalytic removal of tetracyclines from aqueous environment owning to distinctive remarkable physicochemical, optical, and electrical characteristics. Herein, we intensively reviewed the available literatures in order to provide comprehensive insight about the applications and mechanisms of graphene-based materials for removal of tetracyclines via adsorption and phototocatalysis. The synthesis methods of graphene-based materials, the tetracycline adsorption and photocatalytic-degradation conditions, and removal mechanisms have been extensively discussed. Finally concluding remarks and future perspectives have been deduced and recommended to stimulate further researches in the subject. The review study can be used as theoretical guideline for further researchers to improve the current approaches of material synthesis and application towards tetracyclines removal.

WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH : A RESEARCH PUBLICATION OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT FEDERATION 2020; 92:1935-1947. [PMID: 32319707 DOI: 10.1002/wer.1346] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2019] [Revised: 04/08/2020] [Accepted: 04/11/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
A novel sorbent based on a mixture of magnetic functionalized graphene oxide and MOFs was developed to remove enrofloxacin (EFX) from water samples. The prepared sorbent was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectra, scanning electron microscope images, and X-ray powder diffraction pattern. The sorbent compositions were optimized by the mixture experimental design. Under the optimal condition, the percentages of each sorbent component, including triethylene tetramine-functionalized graphene oxide (FGO), Fe3 O4 , and MOF-5, were 40%, 21%, and 39%, respectively. Besides, the intraparticle diffusion and pseudo-second-order kinetic models can describe the EFX adsorption procedure because of two adsorption mechanisms of EFX on FGO and MOF-5. A positive standard enthalpy of 49.80 kJ/mol indicated the EFX adsorption is endothermic with a chemisorption process. The negative values of ΔGo obtained in the range of -8.979 to -3.431 kJ/mol at all studied temperatures showed that the adsorption process was also spontaneous. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were analyzed with the partition coefficient to reduce bias in the isotherm model evaluation. The maximum adsorption capacity of 344.83 mg/g and a high partition coefficient of 17.42 g/L in an initial EFX concentration of 10 mg/L were obtained for the EFX removal. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Magnetic functionalized graphene oxide @MOF-5 as a sorbent for the enrofloxacin removal is synthesized. The percentage amount of each component of the sorbent is optimized using the D-optimal mixture design. Adsorption mechanisms of enrofloxacin on magnetic functionalized graphene oxide @MOF-5 are discussed. Thermodynamic parameters for the enrofloxacin adsorption with the sorbents are determined. Isotherm model for the enrofloxacin removal with the sorbent is investigated.
