JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 359:121045. [PMID: 38703653 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121045] [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: 11/18/2023] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
A multifunctional Ag/AlOOH nanowires (ANW) composite substrate was constructed, which not only accomplishes highly sensitive detection of organic dye molecules, but also has excellent performance in the degradation of pollutants. The ANW in the Ag/ANW substrate possesses a high aspect ratio, which extends the distribution area of Ag and enables a large number of hot spots on the active substrate. Additionally, due to the abundant OH groups on the ANW, there is an increased number of anchor sites for adsorbed metal ions in the Ag/ANW compound, thus contributing to the enhancement and degradation of molecules. Moreover, the constructed multifunctional Ag/ANW nanocomplexes also show great promise for practical applications, providing a reference for the detection and degradation of contaminants.

Rawat S, Ahammed MM. Clay-moringa seedcake composite for removal of cationic and anionic dyes. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 350:141083.

Abstract
The present study investigated the potential of a composite prepared from kaolinite clay and moringa seedcake in removing methylene blue (MB) and acid orange-7 (AO-7) dyes from aqueous solutions using batch and column tests. The composite was modified using different chemicals during the synthesis process, and the composites were characterised using different techniques such as FTIR, SEM-EDS and XRD. Characterisation showed the presence of actively charged functional groups and porous structure on the composites prepared. Batch tests were performed to assess the effect of operating conditions such as adsorbent dosage, pH, initial dye concentration and contact time. NaOH-modified and H2SO4/NaOH-modified composites demonstrated the highest adsorption capacities for AO-7 and MB, respectively, and were selected for subsequent studies. The adsorption process of dye was best fitted by the Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models suggesting that the sorption of MB and AO-7 onto the composites is a heterogeneous, multilayer chemical adsorption process. Long-term fixed-column tests were conducted with the composites to assess the impact of flow rate, bed depth and initial dye concentration on the dye removal efficiency. Optimum removals of 86 and 94%, respectively at pH 2 and pH 10 were obtained for AO-7 and MB in batch tests, along with adsorption capacities of 205.65 and 230.49 mg/g for AO-7 and MB. Results from the column tests were best explained by the Clark model and the Bed Depth-Service Time model. Competing ions impacted the removal of AO-7, while no significant effect was found for MB. The composites could be reused up to four cycles without significantly affecting the adsorption capacity. The present study thus shows the potential of the composite for removal of both the dyes.

Abstract
Rapid industrialization and unscientific disposal of industrial wastewaters have resulted in the pollution of water bodies and deterioration of water quality all over the globe. Valorization of industrial wastewaters will help in reducing the negative impact on the environment and will add value to the waste. The present study targets utilization of sugar processing industrial effluent for bio-based production of Volatile fatty acids (VFA) through anaerobic acidogenesis. Batch studies conducted to determine the VFA production potential of sugar processing industry effluent resulted in the VFA yield of 0.70 g/g COD utilized. Further continuous VFA production system was developed and optimization of Organic loading rate (OLR) (2-22 g COD/L·day) was carried out with constant Hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 1 day. The continuous reactors studies resulted in a maximum VFA yield of 0.72 g/g COD utilized and productivity of 11.04 g COD/L·day at OLR of 14 g COD/L·day and 22 g COD/L·day, respectively. The developed process will provide an environmentally safe and efficient method for the conversion of complex industrial wastes to valuable products such as VFA.

Abstract
The rapid growth of population and industrialization have intensified the problem of water pollution globally. To meet the challenge of industrialization, the use of synthetic dyes in the textile industry, dyeing and printing industry, tannery and paint industry, paper and pulp industry, cosmetic and food industry, dye manufacturing industry, and pharmaceutical industry has increased exponentially. Among these industries, the textile industry is prominent for the water pollution due to the hefty consumption of water and discharge of coloring materials in the effluent. The discharge of this effluent into the aquatic reservoir affects its biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), and pH. The release of the effluents without any remedial treatment will generate a gigantic peril to the aquatic ecosystem and human health. The ecological-friendly treatment of the dye-containing wastewater to minimize the detrimental effect on human health and the environment is the need of the hour. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the catastrophic effects of textile dyes on human health and the environment. This review provides a comprehensive insight into the dyes and chemicals used in the textile industry, focusing on the typical treatment processes for their removal from industrial wastewaters, including chemical, biological, physical, and hybrid techniques.

Abstract
Removal of dye pollutants from wastewater is among the most important emerging needs in environmental science and engineering. The main objective of our work is to develop new magnetic core–shell nanostructures and explore their use for potential removal of pollutants from water using an external magnetic field. Herein, we have prepared magnetic core–shell nanoparticles that demonstrated excellent dye pollutant adsorbent properties. These nanoparticles are composed of a manganese ferrite magnetic core coated with silica, to protect the core and enable further functionalisation, then finally coated with ceria, which is shown to be an effective adsorbent. The magnetic core–shell nanostructures have been synthesized by a modification of solvothermal synthesis. The nanoparticles were fully characterised at each stage of the synthesis by powder X-ray diffraction (pXRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). These particles were found to be effective in removing methylene blue (MB) dye from water, which was validated by UV-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy. These particles can be quickly removed from solution using a permanent magnet and then can be recycled after being placed in the furnace at 400 °C to burn off any organic residues. The particles were found to retain their ability to adsorb the pollutant after several cycles and TEM images of the particles after several cycles showed no change in the morphology. This research demonstrated the capacity of magnetic core–shell nanostructures to be used for water remediation. Magnetic core–shell nanoparticles have been synthesised, characterised and used for methylene blue dye removal from water. They can be magnetically extracted and show no reduction in efficiency after several cycles.![]()

Abstract
Membrane contactor is a promising technology for ammonia recovery from the anaerobic digestion centrate. However, high suspended solids and dissolved organic matter concentrations can reduce the effectiveness of the technology. In this study, coagulation-flocculation (C/F) and aeration pre-treatments were evaluated to reduce chemical oxygen demand (COD), turbidity, suspended solids and alkalinity before the ammonia recovery stage using a membrane contactor. The mass transfer coefficient (Km) and total ammonia (TAN) recovery efficiency of the membrane contactor increased from 7.80 × 10-7 to 1.04 × 10-5 m/s and from 8 to 67%, respectively, after pre-treating the real sidestream centrate. The pre-treatment results showed that dosing aluminium sulphate (Al2(SO4)3) at 30 mg Al/L was the best strategy for the C/F process, providing COD, turbidity and TSS removal efficiencies of 50 ± 5, 95 ± 3 and 90 ± 4%, respectively. The aeration step reduced 51 ± 6% the HCO3- content and allowed reducing alkaline consumption by increasing the pH before the membrane contactor. The techno-economic evaluation showed that the combination of C/F, aeration and membrane contactor can be economically feasible for ammonia recovery. Overall, the results of this study demonstrate that C/F and aeration are simple and effective techniques to improve membrane contactor performance for nitrogen recovery from the anaerobic digestion centrate.

Abstract
In the present study, the use of low-cost, highly efficient, eco-friendly, and abundantly available (in Kashmir region, J&K India) willow leaves from which adsorbents like willow leaves powder (WLP) and willow leaves biochar (WLB) were prepared, have been found to be efficient for malachite green (MG) dye removal and can be used as an alternative to the current expensive methods of removing the same dye from an aqueous solution. The techniques like Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, sulphur (CHNS) analyser were used to characterize the samples without any chemical treatment. SEM of the adsorbents shows the presence of different sized pores, cracks, and crevices. FTIR and CHNS show functional groups and elemental concentration, respectively. The effects of various experimental parameters such as contact time, adsorbent dosage, initial dye concentration, salt treatment, and pH were investigated and optimal experimental conditions were obtained. It has been found that Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherms were useful for describing the equilibrium of adsorption system. The equilibrium adsorption data in this research work was found to follow both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models and maximum monolayer capacity of WLP and WLB were found to be 10.014 and 21.244 mg/g, respectively. The experimental data for both WLP and WLB followed pseudo-second-order kinetic model with R2= 0.999. Intraparticle diffusion model reveals that more than one mechanism influenced the adsorption process. Thermodynamic study concluded that the adsorption is spontaneous for both adsorbents but exothermic for WLP and is endothermic in nature for WLB. Present exploration and comparison with other reported adsorbents concluded that, WLP and WLB may be useful as low-cost attractive option for the removal of MG dye from aqueous solution and therefore, also from wastewater containing MG dye.

Abstract
In this paper, sodium percarbonate (SPC) was activated by ozone (O3) from plasma for catalytic treatment of dye wastewater. Methyl blue (MB), a typical industrial dye, was selected as the target dye contaminant. Results showed that enhancing O3 dosage and reducing MB concentration were beneficial to MB degradation. Compared to acid condition, a higher removal efficiency of MB was obtained in alkaline condition. With an increase of SPC dosage, the removal efficiency of MB first was raised, and then it declined. Under the optimal dosage of 50 mg/L, the removal efficiency of MB reached 85.7% with 30 min treatment time. The energy efficiency was improved from 5.21 g/kWh to 5.71 g/kWh. A synergetic effect can be established between O3 and SPC. Radical capture experiments verified that ·OH, ·O2−, 1O2, and ·CO3− played important parts in MB degradation. With increasing reaction time, the amount of total organic carbon (TOC) declined and the amount of ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) increased. The addition of SPC enhanced the solution’s pH value and conductivity. The degradation pathway was proposed based on density functional theory (DFT) analysis and relevant literatures. The toxicity of MB was alleviated after O3/SPC treatment. The O3/SPC process was also suitable for the treatment of other dyes and actual wastewater.

Abstract
Heterogeneous photocatalysis using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is expected to provide a pivotal solution for the remediation of toxic dyes and heavy metals from textile wastewater. However, MOFs often suffer from a low removal efficiency, due to the rapid recombination between holes and electrons, generated upon photoexcitation. Additionally, the MOFs exhibit poor water stability, which restricts their large-scale application. In this regard, various approaches (i.e. doping of metal nanoparticle, semiconductor, quantum dot, and ligand functionalization) have been adopted for the formation of multifunctional composites. The MOF-composites possess suitable photochemical, surface, optical, and electronic properties, resulting in enhanced water stability, visible light absorption, and reduced recombination between photogenerated species. This comprehensive review targets to provide an insight into the synthesis and subsequent application of various MOF composites for photocatalytic removal of organic contaminants (dyes) and inorganic (Cr(VI)) contaminants from water. MOFs/graphene oxide composites possess improved surface area and reusability whereas noble metal incorporated MOFs composites suffer from photocorrosion and are relatively costly. Zr and Ti based MOFs exhibit tuning from UV to visible light response and surpass the poor water stability upon binary/ternary composite formation. The role of the dopants in enhancing the efficiency of the composites; the effect of influencing factors such as solution pH, pollutant concentration; the mechanism, and the kinetics of reactions have been outlined. In spite of many advancements, the article also summarizes some roadblocks that need to be unraveled to achieve the energy-water-environment nexus and scope for future breakthrough research in this field.

Abstract
Rapid industrial development is associated with high discharge of toxic pollutants into the environment. The industries discharge their wastewater containing organic pollutants directly into the water system without treating them that has posed many serious threats to environmental protection. The use of bioadsorbents for the removal of such toxic pollutants from the waste water due to its simple synthesis, easy operation, effectiveness, and economic viability have emerged a new dimension in the wastewater treatment approaches. Various adsorbents have been prepared to examine their adsorption capacity against different adsorbates, but, to attain sustainability, biocompatibility, and biodegradation, bio-adsorbents have been found to won the battle. Seaweed derived polysaccharide; Carrageenan (CR) has been proven to be an excellent adsorbent for the wastewater treatment. It has been successfully modified with various components to form CR based-magnetic composites, hydrogels, nanoparticle modified CR composites and many others to enrich and diversify its properties. In this review, we have explained the adsorption behaviour of various carrageenan based adsorbents for the removal of different dyes. The influence of various parameters such as the effect of initial concentration, adsorbent dosage, contact time, pH, temperature, and ion concentration on dye adsorption is well explained. This paper also summarizes the structure, morphology, swelling ability, and thermal stability of carrageenan. The data also expounds on the adsorption capacity, kinetic model, isotherm model, and nature of the adsorption process. Different types of solvents are used for the regeneration and reusability of carrageenan adsorbents and their regeneration studies and desorption efficiency is well-explained. The adsorption mechanism of dyes onto carrageenan based adsorbents has been well described in this review. This review provides a deep insight about the use of carrageenan based adsorbents for the wastewater treatment.

[PMID: 34391971 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.126778] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2021] [Revised: 07/14/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Directive, acid and reactive dyes are the carcinogenic dyes which have complex structures and difficult to remove from the industrial wastewater. In this study, coal fly ash (CFA) was modified with HCl and NaOH solution and used for the removal of direct fast scarlet 4BS, direct sky blue 5B, acid navy blue R, and reactive turquoise blue KN-G dyes. Laboratory experiments were carried out to analyze the performance of modified coal fly ash (MCFA) to check the removal efficiency and adsorption capacity of dyes. The maximum removal efficiency of direct fast scarlet 4BS and direct sky blue 5B were recorded 96.03% and 93.820%, respectively using 0.05 g adsorbent dosage at 100 mg/L initial concentration. The results of MCFA were compared with carbon black, chitosan, starch, zeolite and unmodified coal fly ash (UMCFA) at lower dosage 0.05 g and higher dosage 0.4 g. Adsorption isotherm were analyzed by Langmuir and Freundlich model by different dyes concentrations, the result stated that Freundlich and Langmuir model (±0.9918, ±0.9974) was fitted by chemisorption and physisorption methods for all four dyes. Adsorption kinetic were also determined by Pseudo-first-order and Pseudo-second-order at different contact times with dye molecules and adsorbent active sites, and the results showed that the adsorption behaviors of all four dyes were described better by pseudo-second-order kinetics than pseudo-first-order kinetics. Recommended dosage of modified fly ash is between 10 ‱ to 20 ‱ for simulated textile industrial waste water and regeneration temperature is 300 ℃.

Abstract
The pollution of wastewater with dyes has become a serious environmental problem around the world. In this context, the work aims to synthesize and characterize a supported nanocatalyst (NZ-180) from rice husk (RH) and alum sludge (AS) incorporating silver (AgNPs@NZ-180) and titanium nanoparticles (TiNPs@NZ-180) for Rhodamine B (RhB) dye degradation, under UV and visible irradiation. Central rotatable composite design (CRCD) was used to determine ideal conditions, using nanocatalyst and dye concentration such as input variables and degradation percentage like response variable. Samples were characterized by XRD, SEM-EDS, N2 porosimetry, DLS, and zeta potential analyses. TiNPs@NZ-180 showed the best photocatalytic activity (62.62 and 50.82% under UV and visible irradiation, respectively). Specific surface area has increased from 35.90 to 418.90 m2 g-1 for NZ-180 and TiNPs@NZ-180, respectively. Photocatalytic performance of TiNPs@NZ-180 has reduced to 8 and 10% after 5 cycles under UV and visible light irradiation. Ideal conditions found by CRCD were 2.75 g L-1 and 20 mg L-1 for nanocatalyst and RhB concentrations, respectively. Therefore, (agro)industrial waste present such an alternative material for application in the removal of wastewater with dyes, which helps in the reduction of the impact of chemicals/pollutants on human and animal health.

Abstract
Porous alumina has been shown to be an excellent adsorbent for Congo Red (CR) dye. In this work, highly porous g-Al2O3 nanoshells were synthesized from alumina coated carbon black (CB) obtained from a new deposition technique and used for removal of CR dye from aqueous solutions. Adsorption experiments were conducted in a batch mode and a series of parameters were investigated, including contact time, initial dye concentrations, ionic strength and pH of the solutions. It was found that equilibrium for CR adsorption can be reached within 30 min, much faster than reported by other studies in the literature on similar adsorbents. It was also found that the adsorption capacity of Al2O3 nanoshells is 44.8 % higher than that of alumina/CB. The adsorption capacity of Al2O3 nanoshells was more favorable at lower pH, and the optimal adsorption ability was achieved at pH 4.0 with a removal efficiency at 98.6 %. The Al2O3 nanoshells have a maximum adsorption capacity of 370.4 mg g-1 (25 °C; pH 7; no salt added), better than or comparable to those reported in the literature. A pseudo-second-order kinetics model can best fit the kinetics of CR adsorption, which follows the Langmuir isotherm. The high adsorption capacity is attributed to the strong hydrogen-bonding interactions between the anionic dye and Al2O3 nanoshells surface as well as to the electrostatic interactions between CR dye and the Al2O3 nanoshells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A large volume of dye molecules finds its way into the environment, accumulates in water bodies, and makes the aquatic system unsafe to human health. Due to the complex nature of these dye materials, most of the conventional techniques are not effective for their removal. Semiconductor photocatalysis has emerged as a promising technique for the destruction of organic pollutants under UV or visible light irradiation. Among the semiconductors, Bi2S3 is widely employed in photocatalysis due to its non-toxicity and chemical stability. However, one of its problems is the high recombination rate of the charge, and various methods have been employed to enhance the photo-reactivity. One of these methods is the incorporation of transition elements. RESULTS Herein, a facile solvothermal method was used to prepare Bi2S3 nanorods and needle- shaped Sn doped Bi2S3, using bismuth(III) tris(N-phenyldithiocarbamate) as a single-source precursor. The prepared nanomaterials were characterized, and used as efficient photocatalyst for the photo enhanced degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye under visible light irradiation. The nanomaterials exhibited very good photocatalytic activity towards the photo degradation of MB, showing a degradation rate of up to 83% and 94% within 150 min for the pristine and Sn doped Bi2S3, respectively. CONCLUSION The enhancement in the photocatalytic activity of the Sn doped Bi2S3 was attributed to the suppression in the recombination rate of the electron-hole pairs, due to the formation of new energy level below the CB, that was capable of altering the equilibrium concentration of the carrier. This confirmed that Sn doped Bi2S3 could be utilized as valuable cost-efficient catalysts for eliminating methyl blue from aqueous solutions and also possible candidates in environmental pollution treatment.

Abstract
This investigation reports on the biosorption mechanism of Congo Red dyes (CR) in aqueous solution using acid-treated durian peels, prepared for this study. The biosorbent nature was characterized using the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Brunaure-Emmet-Teller (BET). The effect of process parameters within operational range of pH (2–9), contact time (10–200 min), initial concentration (25–400 mg g−1) and temperature (25–65 °C) for the optimum removal of CR dyes was investigated using central composite design (CCD) under response surface methodology (RSM), and revealed that the optimum condition of biosorption was achieved around a pH of 5.5, contact time of 105 min at initial concentration of 212.5 mg L−1 within 45 °C temperature, which corresponds to 95.2% percent removal of CR. The experimental data fitted better to the second order polynomial model, with a correlation coefficient R2 value of 0.9917 and the Langmuir isotherm model with biosorption capacity of 107.52 mg g−1. Gibbs free energy indicated that the adsorption of CR dyes was spontaneous. The mechanism of the adsorption of CR dyes revealed that the biosorption of CR dyes investigated under different operational conditions show that under acidic pH, the adsorption efficiency of the acid treated durian peels is enhanced for the adsorption of CR dye molecules.

Abstract
Contamination of water streams by dyes and heavy metals has become a major problem due to their persistence, accumulation, and toxicity. Therefore, it is essential to eliminate and/or reduce these contaminants before discharge into the natural environment. In recent years, 3D graphene has drawn intense research interests owing to its large surface area, superior charge conductivity, and thermal conductivity properties. Due to their unique surface and structural properties, 3D graphene-based materials (3D GBMs) are regarded as ideal adsorbents for decontamination and show great potential in wastewater or exhaust gas treatment. Here, this minireview summarizes the recent progress on 3D GBMs synthesis and their applications for adsorbing dyes and heavy metals from wastewater based on the structures and properties of 3D GBMs, which provides valuable insights into 3D GBMs' application in the environmental field.

Abstract
The efficiency of the hybrid electrocoagulation-nanofiltration-reverse osmosis (EC-NF-RO) system for the treatment of biologically treated textile effluent was investigated. The treatment performances and membrane fouling behaviours of nanofiltration (NF) and hybrid EC-NF systems were compared. EC process was evaluated concerning mitigate the membrane fouling and increasing the removal efficiencies. Besides, the treated wastewater with the hybrid EC-NF process was finally processed using RO process for reuse purpose in the textile industry. The EC treatment was applied using Fe and Al electrodes at various conditions; pH:4-10, current density:0.5-17 mA/cm2 and operating time:30-180 min. Fe electrode showed better performance in terms of higher removal efficiencies (76% COD, 96% DFZ436), lower energy (21.1 kWh/m3) and electrode consumptions (3.7 kg/m3) for the optimum conditions. Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive Index (ESEM-EDX) and Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses were carried out for EC sludge samples obtained with Fe and Al electrodes. Desal 5 DL and NF 270 membranes were tested in terms of removal efficiency and membrane fouling for NF and hybrid EC-NF process of textile wastewater. Membrane fouling was evaluated with flux values, resistance-in-series model results as well as Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), FTIR and contact angle measurements. NF 270 membrane achieved better chloride (28%) and conductivity (41%) removal efficiencies for NF treatment. EC pretreatment did not result in any noticeable improvement in rejections except for chloride (48%) and conductivity (59%) for the hybrid EC-NF process with NF 270. The ratios of Rc decreased to 40% for NF 270 and 42% for Desal 5DL after EC pretreatment. NF270 membrane indicated high permeate flux and low membrane fouling considering cake resistance distribution, surface roughness, hydrophilicity and chemical structure variation. >93% COD, 99% conductivity, 97% chloride, and 91% TDS removal efficiencies were obtained with the hybrid EC-NF-RO process. Finally, the obtained high quality water by RO after the EC + NF 270 hybrid process could be used for all textile finishing process.

Abstract
Natural dyes have been used from ancient times for multiple purposes, most importantly in the field of textile dying. The increasing demand and excessive costs of natural dye extraction engendered the discovery of synthetic dyes from petrochemical compounds. Nowadays, they are dominating the textile market, with nearly 8 × 105 tons produced per year due to their wide range of color pigments and consistent coloration. Textile industries consume huge amounts of water in the dyeing processes, making it hard to treat the enormous quantities of this hazardous wastewater. Thus, they have harmful impacts when discharged in non-treated or partially treated forms in the environment (air, soil, plants and water), causing several human diseases. In the present work we focused on synthetic dyes. We started by studying their classification which depended on the nature of the manufactured fiber (cellulose, protein and synthetic fiber dyes). Then, we mentioned the characteristics of synthetic dyes, however, we focused more on their negative impacts on the ecosystem (soil, plants, water and air) and on humans. Lastly, we discussed the applied physical, chemical and biological strategies solely or in combination for textile dye wastewater treatments. Additionally, we described the newly established nanotechnology which achieves complete discharge decontamination.

Abstract
A comparison study of an electrolytic, adsorption, and a novel hybrid method towards the removal of malachite green (MGD) dye from the aquatic environment utilizing agricultural biomass, Eucalyptus globulus seeds was examined. The synthesized material has been characterized by thermogravimetric analysis, SEM, FTIR, and XRD. The acid-modified biosorbent developed a microporous structure suggesting a suitable removal process of MDG. The hybrid method was carried in an indigenously designed three-phase three-dimensional electrolytic reactor with varying applied voltage (6, 9, and 12 V) with biosorbent serving as particle electrode. The hybrid method gave the highest removal rate at a voltage of 12 V, compared to other methods. Moreover, the dye removal capacity increased with increased voltage, and contact time was optimized at 15 min. The adsorption isotherm was well fitted with Freundlich isotherm and kinetic data represented pseudo-second-order. Intra particle diffusion studies suggested no interference with gradual adsorption from macropores to micropores. The removal efficiency of particles electrodes for 6, 9, and 12 V were 95, 97, and 99.8%, respectively. The higher removal of MDG towards the hybrid system may be assigned to the synergistic effect of electrolytic and adsorption systems. Regeneration studies indicated that the biosorbent can be reused up to ten times without appreciable loss of efficiency.

Abstract
NOVELTY STATEMENT In the modern era, dyes are inevitable and their surging usage leads to colossal contamination of aqueous streams, thereby threatening both the land and aquatic species. One among such dye is anionic Reactive Red 195 (RR 195), and traceable even at minute concentrations of aqueous streams, posing a severe threat to living species. Moreover, RR 195 is highly recalcitrant offering resistance to biodegradation due to the presence of an azo (-N=N-) group within its structure. Thus, there is a definite need to address the issue of eliminating RR 195 from industrial wastewater effluents. In lieu of this, the primitive objective of this study is to test the effectiveness of the natural adsorbent lotus leaf (Nelumbo nucifera) for the selective sorption of RR 195 from the aqueous stream. Although ample literature is available on the direct utilization of lotus leaf as adsorbent, yet no study was performed on the chemical modification (dimethylamine) of the aforementioned adsorbent. Hence, an attempt has been made in this direction to add a new sorbent into the adsorbents database.

Abstract
Cross-linked chitosan/waste mussel shell (C/WMS) and chitosan/waste mussel shell/waste active sludge char (C/WMS/WASC) composites were prepared from waste mussel shell, waste active sludge (WAS), and chitosan, and cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. The quantities of chitosan, WMS, and WASC used for the C/WMS and C/WMS/WASC composites were 1:1 and 1:0.5:0.5, respectively. The two adsorbents were characterized for their quality by a scanning electron microscope (SEM), an energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and a Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) analyzer. The effects of contact time (0-1,620 mins), pH (1-5), adsorbent dosage (0.01-0.1 g/50 ml), initial dye concentration (20-100 mg/L), and temperature (25-45 °C) on Reactive Blue 49 (RB49) adsorption onto C/WMS and C/WMS/WASC composites were investigated. The maximum RB49 adsorption capacity of C/WMS and C/WMS/WASC composites was 54.7 and 38.8 mg/g, respectively. The experimental data were analyzed by kinetic and isotherm models. The Freundlich isotherm was a good fit for the experimental data of RB49 adsorption on C/WMS and C/WMS/WASC composites, and the adsorption kinetics for both adsorbents were the pseudo-second-order rate equation. All results showed the preparative adsorbents can be used as effective adsorbents for the treatment of waste water contaminated with RB49 since they are low cost and eco-friendly for the environment.

Abstract
Activated carbon (PPAC) from pomelo peels was prepared by carbonization and KOH activation. The performance of PPAC was assessed by removing acid red 88 (AR88) in aqueous solution. The most suitable activation processes were found by orthogonal experiments, aimed to achieve the maximum of removal capacity of AR88. Moreover, the possible mechanisms of adsorption were studied through the results of characterization, isotherm fitting, and kinetics simulation. Results showed the preparation parameter that mattered the most to AR88 removal efficiency was the activation temperature of PPAC, followed by impregnation ratio and activation time. The optimal preparation conditions of PPAC were at activation temperature 800°C, activation time 90 min, and impregnation ratio 2.5 : 1. The characterization results showed optimal PPAC had a microporous and amorphous carbon structure whose BET specific area and total pore volume were 2504 m2/g and 1.185 cm3/g, respectively. The isotherm fitting demonstrated that the sorption process followed the Langmuir model, and theoretical maximal sorption value was 1486 mg/g. The kinetics simulation showed that the pseudo-second-order model described the sorption behavior better, suggesting chemisorption seemed to be the rate-limiting step in the adsorption process. This work presented that PPAC was a promising and efficient adsorbent for AR88 from water.

Abstract
The objective of the present study is to investigate removal of cationic dye, rhodamine B (RhB), in water environment using a high-performance absorbent based on metal oxide nanomaterials toward green chemistry. The adsorption of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) onto synthesized alpha alumina (α-Al2O3) material (M0) at different ionic strengths under low pH was studied to fabricate a new adsorbent as SDS-modified α-Al2O3 material (M1). The RhB removal using M1 was much higher than M0 under the same experimental conditions. The optimal conditions for RhB removal using M1 were found to be contact time 30 min, pH 4, and adsorbent dosage 5 mg/mL. The maximum RhB removal using M1 achieved 100%, and adsorption amount reached 52.0 mg/g. Adsorption isotherms of RhB onto M1 were well fitted by the two-step adsorption model. The electrostatic attraction between positive RhB molecules and negatively charged M1 surface controlled the adsorption that was evaluated by the surface charge change with zeta potential and adsorption isotherms. Very high RhB removal of greater than 98% after four regenerations of M1 and the maximum removal for all actual textile wastewater samples demonstrate that SDS-modified nano α-Al2O3 is a high-performance and reusable material for RhB removal from wastewater.

Simultaneous removal of Congo red and cadmium(II) from aqueous solutions using graphene oxide-silica composite as a multifunctional adsorbent. J Environ Sci (China) 2020; 98:151-160.

Abstract
Graphene oxide is a very high capacity adsorbent due to its functional groups and π-π interactions with other compounds. Adsorption capacity of graphene oxide, however, can be further enhanced by having synergistic effects through the use of mixed-matrix composite. In this study, silica-decorated graphene oxide (SGO) was used as a high-efficiency adsorbent to remove Congo red (CR) and Cadmium (II) from aqueous solutions. The effects of solution initial concentration (20 to 120 mg/l), solution pH (pH 2 to 7), adsorption duration (0 to 140 min) and temperature (298 to 323 K) were measured in order to optimize the adsorption conditions using the SGO adsorbent. Morphological analysis indicated that the silica nanoparticles could be dispersed uniformly on the graphene oxide surfaces. The maximum capacities of adsorbent for effective removal of Cd (II) and CR were 43.45 and 333.33 mg/g based on Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms, respectively. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms displayed the highest values of Qmax for CR and Cd (II) adsorption in this study, which indicated monolayer adsorption of CR and multilayer adsorption of Cd (II) onto the SGO, respectively. Thermodynamic study showed that the enthalpy (ΔH) and Gibbs free energy(ΔG) values of the adsorption process for both pollutants were negative, suggesting that the process was spontaneous and exothermic in nature. This study showed active sites of SGO (π-π, hydroxyl, carboxyl, ketone, silane-based functional groups) contributed to an enormous enhancement in simultaneous removal of CR and Cd (II) from an aqueous solution, Therefore, SGO can be considered as a promising adsorbent for future water pollution control and removal of hazardous materials from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Over the past decades, extensive efforts have been made to use biomass-based-materials for wastewater-treatment. The first purpose of this study was to develop and characterize regenerated-reed/reed-charcoal (RR-ChR), an enhanced biosorbent from Tunisian-reed (Phragmites-australis). The second aim was to assess and optimize the RR-ChR use for the removal of binary ciprofloxacin antibiotic (CIP) and methylene blue dye (MB), using Central Composite Design under Response Surface methodology. The third purpose was to explain the mechanisms involved in the biosorption-process. The study revealed that the highest removal-percentages (76.66 % for the CIP and 100 % for the MB) were obtained under optimum conditions: 1.55 g/L of adsorbent, 35 mg/L of CIP, 75 mg/L of MB, a pH of 10.42 and 115.28 min contact time. It showed that the CIP biosorption mechanism was described by Brouers-Sotolongo-fractal model, with regression-coefficient (R2) of 0.9994 and a Person's Chi-square (X2) of 0.01. The Hill kinetic model better described the MB biosorption (R2 = 1 and X2 = 1.0E-4). The isotherm studies showed that the adsorbent surface was heterogeneous and the best nonlinear-fit was obtained with the Jovanovich (R2 = 0.9711), and Brouers-Sotolongo (R2 = 0.9723) models, for the CIP and MB adsorption, respectively. Finally, the RR-ChR lignocellulosic-biocomposite-powder could be adopted as efficient and cost-effective adsorbent.

Abstract
Soil particles and bound nutrients that erode from agricultural land may end up in surface waters and cause undesirable changes to the environment. Various measures, among them constructed wetlands have been proposed as mitigation, but their efficiency varies greatly. This work was motivated by the assumption that the induced coagulation of particles may accelerate sedimentation in such wetlands and by that help reduce the amount of material that is lost from the vicinity of the diffuse source. Our specific aim was to laboratory-test the effectiveness of various salt-based coagulants in accelerating the process of sedimentation. We tested the effect of Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Fe3+ and Al3+ cations in 10, 20, 40 and 80 mg L-1 doses added to a soil solution in select, soluble forms of their chlorides, sulphates and hydroxides. We mixed such salts with 1 gram of physically dispersed, clay and silt rich (>85% in total) soil material in 500 mL of solution and used time-lapse photography and image analysis to evaluate the progress of sedimentation over 3 hours. We found that 20-40 mg L-1 doses of Mg2+, Ca2+ in their chloride or sulphate forms appeared to provide the best consensus in terms of efficiently accelerating sedimentation using environmentally present and acceptable salts but keeping their dosage to a minimum. Comprehensive in-field efficiency and environmental acceptability testing is warranted prior to any practical implementation, as well as an assessment of small scale economic and large-scale environmental benefits by retaining soil and nutrients at/near the farm.

Abstract
The treatment of wastewater for reuse is a potential solution to meet ever increasing urban, industrial, agricultural, and environmental demands across the world, where clean water availability is scarce. There are several traditional wastewater treatment processes that offer varying degrees of effectiveness in addition to presenting environmental, economic, and social disadvantages. Development of promising and inexpensive technologies to provide the reusable water in needful amounts using wastewaters as a cheap source of key nutrients and organic matter is required. Wastewater treatment by biological methods is becoming more important in the light of recovering value-added plant nutrients, heavy metals, biosolids, and bioenergy resources. Different types of solid contaminants in effluents can be removed simultaneously by pure cultures or mixed microbial consortia. Based on the structural organization of microbial biomass, biological treatment systems are classified into two types: dispersed growth system and attached growth system. Biological treatment methods associated with fixed-film growth have been recognized as highly effective and more energy efficient than suspended growth systems. This review discusses the recent breakthroughs in advanced biological wastewater treatment using both the systems, and also focuses on key energetic resources recovery driven by biological technologies.

Abstract
Unique optical properties render semiconductor Nb2O5 nanoparticles suitable for light harvesting and photocatalytic applications. This study focuses on determining optical properties such as the band gap, conduction band edge, valence band edge and work function of as-prepared solution combustion synthesized Nb2O5 nanoparticles with the help of UV-vis Diffuse Reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) techniques. Phase purity and the oxidation states of the elements present in the material were confirmed from X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns and X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), respectively. Doping semiconductors with different metal ions impacts the activity of the material, and therefore efforts were made to understand the effect on the photocatalytic performance of Nb2O5 due to the incorporation of metal dopants viz. Sr, Y, Zr, and Ag. Lattice parameters were obtained from Rietveld refinement of the XRD patterns. Parameters which are closely related to the photoactivity of the catalysts such as the presence of surface defects, oxygen vacancies, surface area, and charge carrier dynamics were determined from photoluminescence (PL) analysis, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area measurements and time-resolved fluorescence (TRF) analysis respectively. In addition, the dopant concentrations were optimised for enhanced photocatalytic activity. The doped Nb2O5 nanoparticles showed significant activity towards targeted degradation of organic pollutants like 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) and dye contaminants like methylene blue (MB), orange G (OG) and indigo carmine (IC). This strategy yielded a robust response towards inactivation of E. coli and S. aureus as well. Adsorption and photodegradation of MB followed Lagergren's pseudo 1st order reaction model and the Langmuir Hinshelwood model respectively. Bacterial inactivation and OG, IC and 2-CP photodegradation followed 1st order kinetics. The reusability of the catalyst for 5 cycles was demonstrated. Finally, a plausible mechanism is proposed based on radical trapping experiments and combined analysis of the characterization techniques.
