Bouzikri S, Ouasfi N, Khamliche L. Statistical physics modeling study of an environmentally friendly and efficient adsorbent derived from the brown macroalgae Bifurcaria bifurcata for the removal of Bisphenol A. MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN 2024; 199:116025. [PMID: 38232650 DOI: 10.1016/j.marpolbul.2024.116025] [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: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 12/29/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
The brown macroalgae Bifurcaria bifurcata was valued and used to develop a carbonaceous material activated by H2SO4 (AC-BB@H2SO4), with the goal of assessing its adsorption ability against Bisphenol A (BPA). During the adsorption experiments, the effects of the adsorbent dose, solution pH, and contact time were examined, and the results were m = 0.4 g/L, pH = 8.3, and t = 120 min, with an elimination yield of 91.6 %. With comparatively high R2 values, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model perfectly fitted the experimental data. Langmuir's model was found to be the best appropriate for describing the adsorption equilibrium of BPA on AC-BB@H2SO4. The thermodynamic findings show that BPA adsorption on AC-BB@H2SO4 was spontaneous, favorable, and endothermic in nature. Even after six cycles of reuse, regeneration testing demonstrated that our adsorbent could eliminate BPA by >50 %. The BPA adsorption mechanism's statistical physics control parameters were determined and analyzed. BPA's adsorption energies were <40 kJ/mol, indicating that the interactions between BPA and AC-BB@H2SO4 were governed by physical forces (i.e., hydrogen bonding and van der Waals and electrostatic interactions). All of these intriguing findings indicate that our carbonaceous material might have direct ramifications in the field of wastewater treatment, notably for the clearance of BPA, which is difficult to biodegrade.

[PMID: 37839742 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140448] [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: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 09/29/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
Heavy metal (HM) pollution, particularly in its ionic form in water bodies, is a chronic issue threatening environmental security and human health. The microalgal-bacterial symbiosis (MABS) system, as the basis of water ecosystems, has the potential to treat HM wastewater in a sustainable manner, with the advantages of environmental friendliness and carbon sequestration. However, the differences between laboratory studies and engineering practices, including the complexity of pollutant compositions and extreme environmental conditions, limit the applications of the MABS system. Additionally, the biomass from the MABS system containing HMs requires further disposal or recycling. This review summarized the recent advances of the MABS system treating HM wastewater, including key mechanisms, influence factors related to HM removal, and the tolerance threshold values of the MABS system to HM toxicity. Furthermore, the challenges and prospects of the MABS system in treating actual HM wastewater are analyzed and discussed, and suggestions for biochar preparation from the MABS biomass containing HMs are provided. This review provides a reference point for the MABS system treating HM wastewater and the corresponding challenges faced by future engineering practices.

Qualitative and Quantitative Investigation of Biochar-Cu 0 Composite for Nickel Adsorption. ACS OMEGA 2023; 8:39186-39193. [PMID: 37901509 PMCID: PMC10600888 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c04456] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023]
Abstract
The current investigation deals with the treatment of water pollution that is caused by the leaching of nickel ions from the metallurgical industry and new-energy batteries. Therefore, an eco-friendly treatment of nickel through the use of a composite of cotton stalk biochar with nanozerovalent copper has been presented in this investigation signifying the impact of zerovalent copper in enhancing the adsorption capacity of biochar for nickel adsorption. Thermogravimetric analysis data showed the adsorbent to be significantly stable in the higher thermal range, whereas transmission electron microscopy analysis confirmed the particles to be 27 nm and also showed the cubic geometry of the particles. A much closer scanning electron microscopy analysis shows the morphology of particles to be cubic in shape. Batch adsorption indicated a positive influence of pH increase on adsorption due to the electrostatic attraction between positive nickel ions and post point of zero charge (pHPZC) negative surface of copper biochar composite (pH > 5.5). A high adsorption rate was observed in the first 60 min, whereas adsorption increased with the increase in temperature from 303 to 318 K. Kinetic modeling confirmed the pseudo-first-order to fit best to the data. The apparent activation energy (11.96 kJ mol-1) is indicative of the chemical nature of the process. The adsorption data fitted well to the Langmuir adsorption model. The negative values of apparent ΔG° and the positive values of apparent ΔH° indicate the spontaneity and endothermicity of the process, respectively, whereas the positive values of apparent ΔS° point toward increased randomness during the process. Postadsorption XPS suggests the adsorption of nickel on the surface of biochar composites in the form of Ni(OH)2 and NiO(OH).

Abstract
A novel dielectrophoresis (DEP)-assisted device for the bioremediation of heavy metal ions by using Chlorella microalgae is presented in this paper. To generate the DEP forces, pairs of electrode mesh were inserted in the DEP-assisted device. By applying DC electric field via the electrodes, the inhomogeneous electric field gradient is induced and the strongest non-uniform electric field exists near the mesh cross-corner. After the adsorption of Cd and Cu heavy metal ions by Chlorella, the Chlorella chain were trapped along the vicinity of the electrode mesh. Then, the effects of Chlorella concentration on the adsorption of heavy metal ions, and the applied voltage and electrode mesh size on the removal of Chlorella are conducted. In the co-existing Cd and Cu solutions, the individual adsorption ratio of Cd and Cu reaches as high as approximately 96% and 98%, respectively, showing excellent bioremediation capability of multiple heavy metal ions in wastewater. By adjusting the applied electric voltage and the mesh size, the Chlorella adsorbed with Cd and Cu are captured by negative DC-DEP effects and the removal ratio of Chlorella reach an average of 97%, providing a method for the removal of multiple heavy metal ions in wastewater by using Chlorella microalgae.

Abstract
This study investigated the possibility of using the spent kind of biomass of Pseudomonas putida CA-3 and Zobelella denitrificans MW1 obtained after the pilot-scale production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) as a biosorbent for the bioremediation of aqueous solutions containing toxic cadmium and lead ions. The material was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and amino acid profiling. To check the sorption capacity of spent biomass against Pb and Cd ions, equilibrium studies were performed. To learn about the nature of the sorption process, kinetic modelling was carried out and the obtained results showed that the adsorption process is best described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (PSO), which suggests that the sorption process is connected with the chemical bonding of the ions on the sorbent surface. Information provided by the amino acid profile made it possible to predict the adsorption mechanism and FTIR analysis proved the participation of different chemical groups in the removal process. According to the equilibrium studies, the best-fitted isotherm was the Freundlich model for all used materials and metal ions considering the correlation coefficient. Summarizing the results, the spent biomass after the PHA production is an effective biosorbent and can be reused for heavy metal bioremediation.

Abstract
Triclosan (TCS) is an antimicrobial agent and frequently detected in wastewater or water body. This study investigated the role of TCS in microalgal-bacterial symbiosis (MABS) system treating wastewater. The results showed that the removal efficiencies of NH4+-N, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus decreased under increased TCS stress, with decrease ratios of 32.0%, 28.9%, and 46.1%. The activities of microalgae were more affected than that of bacteria. The secretion of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) and activity of superoxide dismutase firstly increased and then decreased with aggravated TCS stress, while the accumulation of malondialdehyde increased, leading to increased permeability of cytomembrane and bioaccumulation of TCS. In addition, the aggregation properties of microalgae and bacteria were enhanced with TCS loading increasing, and the migration of TCS was affected by enhanced EPSs secretions and MABS aggregates. This work may provide some new insights into the roles of TCS in MABS system.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution of water from industrial discharge is a major problem worldwide. Thus, the quality of the environment and human health are severely affected. Various conventional technologies have been applied for water treatment, but these can be expensive, especially for industrial water treatment, and may have limited treatment efficiencies. Phytoremediation is a method that is successfully applied to remove metal ions from wastewater. In addition to the high efficiency of the depollution treatment, this method has the advantages of a low cost of the operation and the existence of many plants that can be used. This article presents the results of using algae (Sargassum fusiforme and Enteromorpha prolifera) to treat water containing manganese and lead ions. It was observed that maximum efficiencies for wastewater treatment were obtained when was used the algae Enteromorpha prolifera for a 600 min contact time period. The highest wastewater treatment efficiency obtained using Sargassum fusiforme was 99.46%.

Abstract
A simple approach for synthesizing a highly adsorbent composite was described for the uptake of heavy metal ions from wastewater. A simple approach for synthesizing a highly adsorbent composite was also described for the elimination of heavy metal ions from contaminated water. The nanocomposite was synthesized via a polymer grafting of chitosan on the activated carbon surface, followed by a stacking process with the layers of montmorillonite clay. The spectroscopic analyses were exploited to confirm the composite structure of the prepared materials. Various adsorption parameters, such as pH, initial concentration, and adsorption time, were assessed. The results showed that the adsorption capacity of the composite for Pb2+ ions increased as the pH increased until it reached pH 5.5. The maximum adsorption capacity was observed at an initial Pb2+ level of 20 mg/L and a contact time of 150 min. Kinetic models were evaluated, and the pseudo second-order model showed the best match. The adsorption isotherm data were processed by fitting the model with different isotherm behaviors, and the Langmuir isotherm was found to be the most suitable for the system. The maximum adsorption capacity for Pb2+ ion on the MMT/CS/AC composite was found to be 50 mg/g at pH 5.5. Furthermore, the composite maintained a high adsorption capability of 85% for five adsorption-desorption cycles. Overall, this composite is envisioned as an addition to the market of wastewater remediation technology due to its chemical structure, which provides influential functional groups for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
A unique composite based on graphene oxide, magnetite, and diatomite was synthetized by eco-friendly dry coating technique for the removal of four toxic organochlorine pesticides from agricultural drainage. The prepared composite was fully characterized using X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), particle size analyzer, Vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM), magnetic susceptibility meter, zeta potential, scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM-EDS), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis (BET) techniques. The characterization results confirmed the fabrication of a discrete core/shell structured composite possess both adsorptive and magnetic nature. The surface area, pore volume and pore diameter were 23.4 m2/g, 0.0026 cm3/g, and 4.5 nm, respectively. The amenability to use the fabricated composite as an adsorbent for some organochlorine pesticides was investigated under different conditions of concentration, time, pH, and temperature. Batch adsorption experiment showed that 97% removal efficiency was observed for all the studied pesticides with adsorption capacities of 7.78 mg/g after 2 h contact time and at any pH region. The adsorption was exothermic (ΔH < 0), spontaneous (ΔG° < 0), followed pseudo 2nd order kinetics (R2 > 0.998), and fitted well to Langmuir's isotherm pattern for all pesticides (R2 > 0.98). It is assumed that organochlorine pesticides were initially physisorbed by the graphene nanoplatelets via hydrophobic and π-π interactions along with chemisorption for forming monolayer. Moreover, the pesticides molecules could diffuse in the DMG composite micropores and be trapped in the structural defects. The regeneration of the composite exhibited over 90% removal efficiency even after seven cycles. The fabricated composite was examined to remove organochlorine from a real water sample, the obtained results suggest the possibility to use this composite as an economical, effective and sustainable adsorbent for the treatment of pesticides contaminating water.

Abstract
In this study, the adsorptive removal of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] from aqueous solutions by the pristine and salt-treated (CaCl2) erythromycin production residue (EPRs and SEPRs) were investigated. Batch experiments were carried out to determine the effect of contact time, sorbent dosage, pH, initial Cr concentration, and temperature on Cr(VI) sorption by EPRs and SEPRs. The highest adsorptive removal capacities were achieved at the pH equal to 1.0, and the maximum adsorption capacities for EPRs and SEPRs at optimized conditions were 21.74 and 35.24 mg g-1, respectively. The FTIR spectra and SEM studies were examined for the pristine adsorbent and after the adsorption of Cr(VI). Moreover, thermodynamic results indicated that Cr sorption by EPR/SERPs was feasible, spontaneous, and endothermic under the optimum conditions. Langmuir model fitted well with the experimental data. Kinetic modeling revealed that the biosorption of Cr(VI) by EPRs and SEPRs obeyed the second-order model than the first-order model. The process involving rate-controlling step is much complex involving both boundary layer and intra-particle diffusion processes. Furthermore, the adsorption-coupled-reduction process was believed as the main mechanism of Cr(VI) removal by EPRs and SEPRs. In summary, both adsorbents could be considered as promising low-cost biosorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous systems.

Abstract
The present investigation has been designed by Taguchi and hybrid artificial neural network (ANN) paradigms to improve and optimize the binary sorption of Cobalt(II) and methylene blue (MB) from an aqueous solution, depending on modifying physicochemical conditions to generate an appropriate constitution for a highly efficient biosorption by the alga; Sargassum latifolium. Concerning Taguchi's design, the predicted values of the two responses were comparable to actual ones. The biosorption of Cobalt(II) ions was more efficient than MB, the supreme biosorption of Cobalt(II) was verified in run L21 (93.28%), with the highest S/N ratio being 39.40. The highest biosorption of MB was reached in run L22 (74.04%), with a S/N ratio of 37.39. The R2 and adjusted R2 were in reasonable values, indicating the validity of the model. The hybrid ANN model has exclusively emerged herein to optimize the biosorption of both Cobalt(II) and MB simultaneously, therefore, the ANN model was better than the Taguchi design. The predicted values of Cobalt(II) and MB biosorption were more obedience to the ANN model. The SEM analysis of the surface of S. latifolium showed mosaic form with massive particles, as crosslinking of biomolecules of the algal surface in the presence of Cobalt(II) and MB. Viewing FTIR analysis showed active groups e.g., hydroxyl, α, β-unsaturated ester, α, β-unsaturated ketone, N-O, and aromatic amine. To the best of our knowledge, there are no reports deeming the binary sorption of Cobalt(II) and MB ions by S. latifolium during Taguchi orthogonal arrays and hybrid ANN.

Abstract
Heavy metal and pesticide pollution have become an inevitable part of the modern industrialized environment that find their way into all ecosystems. Because of their persistent nature, recalcitrance, high toxicity and biological enrichment, metal and pesticide pollution has threatened the stability of the environment as well as the health of living beings. Due to the environmental persistence of heavy metals and pesticides, they get accumulated in the environs and consequently lead to food chain contamination. Therefore, remediation of heavy metals and pesticide contaminations needs to be addressed as a high priority. Various physico-chemical approaches have been employed for this purpose, but they have significant drawbacks such as high expenses, high labor, alteration in soil properties, disruption of native soil microflora and generation of toxic by-products. Researchers worldwide are focusing on bioremediation strategies to overcome this multifaceted problem, i.e., the removal, immobilization and detoxification of pesticides and heavy metals, in the most efficient and cost-effective ways. For a period of millions of evolutionary years, microorganisms have become resistant to intoxicants and have developed the capability to remediate heavy metal ions and pesticides, and as a result, they have helped in the restoration of the natural state of degraded environs with long term environmental benefits. Keeping in view the environmental and health concerns imposed by heavy metals and pesticides in our society, we aimed to present a generalized picture of the bioremediation capacity of microorganisms. We explore the use of bacteria, fungi, algae and genetically engineered microbes for the remediation of both metals and pesticides. This review summarizes the major detoxification pathways and bioremediation technologies; in addition to that, a brief account is given of molecular approaches such as systemic biology, gene editing and omics that have enhanced the bioremediation process and widened its microbiological techniques toward the remediation of heavy metals and pesticides.

Abstract
In this research work, the biosorption potential of brown algae, Sargassum polycystum, was investigated for the removal of toxic metals, cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn), under controlled environmental conditions. The biosorbent prepared from the S. polycystum was characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. The optimal conditions identified using Box-Behnken design (BBD) for Cd removal were pH: 4.65, biosorbent mass: 1.8 g/L and shaking speed: 76 rpm. For zinc, the optimum values were pH: 5.7, biosorbent mass: 1.2 g/L and shaking speed: 125 rpm, respectively. The equilibrium uptake of the metals, Cd and Zn, was evaluated by isotherm models. The Langmuir isotherm proved to be an excellent fit confirming single layer of sorption. The maximum Cd and Zn uptakes achieved were 105.26 mg/g and 116.2 mg/g respectively. The kinetics of Cd and Zn biosorption onto brown algae Sargassum polycystum, follows pseudo-second order. The thermodynamic parameters were determined, and the sorption process was found to be feasible. Desorption studies of Cd and Zn were performed, and the bio sorbent reproduced appreciable efficiency for five successive cycles of sorption-desorption process using HCl.

Abstract
In this study, a method of removing an anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) from an aqueous solution by cellulose modified with quaternary ammonium cation was discussed. Cellulose, as the adsorbent, was obtained from medical cotton balls, and the quaternary ammonium cation (synthesized from dodecyl dimethyl tertiary amine and epichlorohydrin) was grafted onto the sixth hydroxyl group of D-glucose in the cellulose by the Williamson reaction under alkaline conditions. The modified cellulose was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS); and the zeta potential of the material was also measured after confirmation of the synthesis of quaternary ammonium salts by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). From these analyses, a peak of the quaternary ammonium group was observed at 1637 cm-1; and it was found that the surface of the material exhibited a positive charge in pH 2-7. The optimal conditions for SDS adsorption by modified cellulose were pH of 7, contact time of 3 h, and temperature of 60 °C in this study. Typical adsorption isotherms (Langmuir and Freundlich) were determined for the adsorption process, and the maximal adsorption capacity was estimated as 32.5 mg g-1. The results of adsorption kinetics were more consistent with the pseudo-second-order equation, indicating that the adsorption process was mainly controlled by chemical adsorption. Furthermore, thermodynamic analysis indicated that the adsorption process of SDS on the modified cellulose was endothermic and spontaneous and that an increasing temperature was conducive to adsorption.

Abstract
Cadmium pollution in alkaline soil in some areas of northern China seriously threatens agricultural production and human health, but there are few materials and methods to remediate cadmium pollution in alkaline soil. Therefore, it is necessary to further study the economic and adaptive remediation and regulation techniques of cadmium pollution in alkaline soil. In the study, a pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of MP and MnSO4 combined treatment on the immobilization effect of cadmium contaminated alkaline soils. The results showed that LM and HM treatments in different periods had little effect on the content of extractable Cd fraction in soil without MP treatment, but the EXC-Cd content in the soil with Mn(15) was lower than that in the soil with Mn(29). The EXC-Cd content under MP+ LM and MP + HM treatments reduced by 3%-7% and 7%-9%, respectively. The OX-Cd content increased by 13%-16% after MP + Mn treatment. The content of DTPA-Cd decreased by 17.9%-28.6% under MP + Mn treatment except for MP + HM(15). Under the treatment of MP, LM(29), HM, MP + LM and MP + HM, the content of Cd in shoots of pak choi were decreased by 27.2%, 13.1%, 19.8%-27.9%, 28.5%-54.2% and 34.2%-41.1%, respectively. Compared with CK, the TFCd values in HM(15), LM(29), HM(29), MP + LM(29) and MP + HM(29) treatments were reduced to 35.7%, 41.1%, 35.7%, 42.9% and 37.5%, respectively, while no statistical difference was observed in other treatments. There was no significant difference in BCFCd between MP(15) and LM(15), but the BCFCd was significantly decreased. For MP + MnSO4 treatment group, the content of Mn oxides in soil was negatively correlated with the content of EXC-Cd (P < 0.05) and positively correlated with the content of OX-Cd (P < 0.05).

Abstract
In this study, a Microcystis aeruginosa-based photobioreactor (M. aeruginosa-based PBR) was developed for the removal of cadmium (Cd2+) from diluted actual mine wastewater (DW) and Cd2+-contained simulated wastewater (SW), with a uniform Cd2+ concentration of 0.5 mg/L. For the DW and SW, both K+ -abundant (DWA & SWA) and K+-insufficient (DWB & SWB) treatments were conducted. It was found that continuous supplementation of K+ benefited Cd2+ removal. The Cd2+ removal efficiency in SWA reached 70% during the 41 days of operation, which was 20% higher than that in the SWB. The K+ addition triggered great higher Cd2+ removal efficiency (90%) in the DWA in comparison to the SWA. The Cd2+ assimilation by M. aeruginosa and Cd2+ retention on M. aeruginosa surface were the primary processes involved in the PBR system. The K+ starvation triggered a 45% and 43% loss of M. aeruginosa biomass in the DWA and the DWB, respectively. Hence, the Cd2+ removal efficiency in DWB increased significantly, and this was attributed to the increased abundance of non-living cells and enhanced bioretention of Cd2+. The results revealed that continuous K+ supplementation enhanced the Cd2+ removal efficiency in the M. aeruginosa-based PBR jointly by prompting algal cell growth, Cd2+ assimilation and biosorption, as well as Cd2+ retention on the algal cells.

Abstract
The transporting of oil via the Arabian Gulf for centuries has resulted in the pollution of the coasts by heavy metals, and therefore, remediation actions are needed. In this review, we first evaluated heavy metal pollution on the coasts by assembling the research on published metal concentrations in sediments and water bodies surrounding the Arabian Peninsula. Research revealed uneven pollution of heavy metals, meaning that before remediation, the most polluted sites should be found. This could be done most conveniently using biomonitoring. The Arabian Peninsula is a unique ecoregion due to the extremely high temperature in summer, and therefore, it needs its specific standardization procedure for biomonitoring. To get an overview of the current information on biomonitoring, we gathered a dataset of 306 published macroalgal observations from the Arabian Gulf and the Gulf of Aden. The heavy metal concentration dataset of macroalgae was analyzed with a multivariate principal component analysis. As a result of the published works elsewhere and our data analysis, we recommend that green Ulva and brown Padina species are used in the biomonitoring of heavy metal pollution on the Arabian Peninsula's eastern and southern coasts. However, more species might be needed if these species do not occur at the site. The species incidence should first be monitored systematically in each area, and common species should be used. The species used should be chosen locally and sampled at the same depth at low tide in spring or early summer, from February to May, before the hottest season. The composite samples of different apical sections of the thallus should be collected. The standardization of the monitoring processes benefits future remediation actions.

Abstract
Despite the negative impact on the environment, incineration is one of the most commonly used methods for dealing with waste. Besides emissions, the production of ash, which usually shows several negative properties, such as a higher content of hazardous elements or strongly alkaline pH, is problematic from an environmental viewpoint as well. The subject of our paper was the assessment of biosorption of Ni from ash material by a microbial consortium of Chlorella sp. and Aspergillus niger. The solid substrate represented a fraction of particles of size <0.63 mm with a Ni content of 417 mg kg-1. We used a biomass consisting of two different organisms as the sorbent: a non-living algae culture of Chlorella sp. (an autotrophic organism) and the microscopic filamentous fungus A. niger (a heterotrophic organism) in the form of pellets. The experiments were conducted under static conditions as well as with the use of shaker (170 rpm) with different modifications: solid substrate, Chlorella sp. and pellets of A. niger; solid substrate and pellets of A. niger. The humidity-temperature conditions were also changed. Sorption took place under dry and also wet conditions (with distilled water in a volume of 30-50 ml), partially under laboratory conditions at a temperature of 25°C as well as in the exterior. The determination of the Ni content was done using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The removal of Ni ranged from 13.61% efficiency (Chlorella sp., A. niger with the addition of 30 ml of distilled water, outdoors under static conditions after 48 h of the experiment) to 46.28% (Chlorella sp., A. niger with the addition of 30 ml of distilled water, on a shaker under laboratory conditions after 48 h of the experiment). For the purpose of analyzing the representation of functional groups in the microbial biomass and studying their interaction with the ash material, we used Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. We observed that the amount of Ni adsorbed positively correlates with absorbance in the spectral bands where we detect the vibrations of several organic functional groups. These groups include hydroxyl, aliphatic, carbonyl, carboxyl and amide structural units. The observed correlations indicate that, aside from polar and negatively charged groups, aliphatic or aromatic structures may also be involved in sorption processes due to electrostatic attraction. The correlation between absorbance and the Ni content reached a maximum in amide II band (r = 0.9; P < 0.001), where vibrations of the C=O, C-N, and N-H groups are detected. The presented results suggest that the simultaneous use of both microorganisms in biosorption represents an effective method for reducing Ni content in a solid substrate, which may be useful as a partial process for waste disposal.

Abstract
Pyrolysis gasoline (Py gas) is used as an octane enhancer of gasoline as it is rich in aromatics. However, removal of carcinogenic benzene from Py gas before blending with gasoline is important to meet the fuel specifications. The main focus of this present study is to determine the sorption kinetics and sorption isotherm of a fabricated insitu nano silver/polyvinyl alcohol (insitu nano Ag/PVA) membrane for pervaporative separation of benzene from model Py gas [mixture of benzene (aromatic) and 1-octene (aliphatic)]. The thickness, surface morphological structure (Atomic Force Microscopy) and degree of swelling of the fabricated membrane were determined. The highest pervaporation separation index achieved for the selected system was 14.259 kg/m2/h at 303 K, with 30 volume% benzene in model Py gas using a downstream pressure of 1 mm of Hg. The sorption kinetics of benzene in insitu nano Ag/PVA membrane obeyed the Elovich model while the Temkin isotherm model fitted the experimental data of the chosen system most accurately.

Abstract
Heavy metal contamination is a severe problem with serious ecological and human health effects due to its toxic effect and tendency to accumulate throughout the food chain. Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the simultaneous removal of arsenic, iron and manganese ions from aqueous solutions using Nanocarbon hybrid (NCH). Nanocarbon hybrid (NCH) of carbon xerogel decorated with 1wt% multi-walled carbon nanotubes was prepared by carbonization at 850 °C for 2 h. The TEM, SEM, EDX, FTIR, and N2 adsorption-desorption measurements were used to characterize the prepared NCH. NCH is enriched with surface oxygen functional groups and micropores as well as it have total surface area of 162 m2/g and total pore volume of 0.129 cm3/g. The adsorption of metal ions onto NCH, which confirmed by EDX, happened quickly, with 30%, 97%, and 41% of As, Fe, and Mn adsorbed in less than 10 min, however the equilibrium time was achieved in less than 30 min. The maximum adsorption capacities for As, Fe, and Mn ions onto NCH were 20, 48, and 21 mg/g, respectively. The experimental adsorption results of the three metal ions showed linearly fitting with Freundlich isotherms. In addition, the computed adsorption energies for Fe, Mn, and As ions were 4.08, 1.95, and 2.42 kJ/mol, indicating physical adsorption. NCH are easily regenerated and reusable sorbent owing to the adsorption–desorption studies. Conclusively, NCH is promising material for removing mixture of metal ions from aqueous media.

Abstract
In this research, biomass modification of Nannochloropsis sp. with surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) through a cation exchange reaction to produce adsorbent Nannochloropsis sp.-cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (AlgN-CTAB) has been carried out. Biomass modification of Nannochloropsis sp. by CTAB has been successfully carried out through confirmation from the analysis data produced by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). AlgN-CTAB adsorbent has been tested for its adsorption ability against anionic dye of methyl orange (MO) in solution by way of a sequence of experiments by the batch method. The optimum conditions for MO removal from the solution occurred at an adsorbent quantity of 0.1 g, pH of 5, and an interaction time of 60 min. MO adsorption kinetic data by AlgN and AlgN-CTAB tended to take the kinetic model of pseudo-second-order (PSO) with PSO rate constant (
) values of 0.56 and 2.17 g mg-1 min-1, serially. The MO adsorption isotherm pattern by AlgN tends to take the Freundlich adsorption isotherm, whereas in AlgN-CTAB it follows the Langmuir and Dubinin-Radushkevich adsorption isotherms. The results of the adsorption-desorption of MO by AlgN-CTAB with 4 repetition cycles resulted in % removal of
. The AlgN-CTAB adsorbent can be used repeatedly and is very effective in absorbing MO in water.

Abstract
Biosorption is an emerging technology for the removal of heavy metals from industrial wastewater by natural or modified biomass. In this study, we proposed a novel protocol for making full use of seaweeds. Brown seaweed Sargassum carpophyllum residue (SCR) and green seaweed Caulerpa lentillifera residue (CLR) were obtained after extraction of the bioactive polysaccharides. The obtained residues were further chemical modified by butanedioic anhydride to obtained respective carboxylated product, named CSCR and CCLR. According to the titration results, CSCR and CCLR contained 2.77 and 2.12 mmol/g of carboxyl group. After modification, the adsorption capacity for metal ions increased by 3-6 times. The adsorption capacity of CSCR for Cu2+, Pb2+, Cd2+ and Mn2+ was 52.37, 107.11, 85.62, and 43.52 mg/g, and that of CCLR was 78.10, 108.80, 87.30 and 57.80 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption was well described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir adsorption isotherm equation.

Abstract
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii has been frequently investigated for its resistance to metals; however, few studies have systematically compared the intracellular and extracellular processes involved in the detoxification of Cd and Pb by this microalga. We found that C. reinhardtii was more tolerant to Pb (concentration for 50% of the maximal effect; EC50: 29.48 ± 8.83 mg L-1) than to Cd (EC50: 12.48 ± 1.30 mg L-1) after 96 h of exposure. Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), intracellular starch granules, lipid droplets, and glutathione were significantly increased under Cd and Pb treatments. Lead-containing particles were formed outside of the cells exposed to 30 mg L-1 of Pb, whereas no minerals were present when Cd was added. Various EPS functional groups, including -COOH, C-O-C (polysaccharides), and amide I and II (proteins), were involved in the interactions with Cd and Pb. The Pb removal rate (60.46-78.27%) by C. reinhardtii was higher than that of Cd (50.61-59.38%), and the microalgal cells with intact EPS bound more metals than those without EPS. Adsorption accounted for 79.62% of the total Cd accumulation in the low-Cd treatment, whereas absorption dominated the Pb accumulation at low Pb concentrations. The distributions of Cd and Pb in and out of the microalgal cells were reversed when the concentrations of the two metals increased. The detoxification strategies of C. reinhardtii for Cd and Pb were completely different, and these findings may assist in the phycoremediation of metal pollution in aquatic environments.

Abstract
This study investigates the performance of support vector machine (SVM), multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS), and random forest (RF) models for predicting the lead (Pb) adsorption by attapulgite clay. Models are constructed using batch stochastic data of heavy metal (HM) concentrations under different physicochemical conditions. Implementation of auto-hyper-parameter tuning using grid-search approach and comparative analysis is performed against the benchmark artificial intelligence (AI) models. Models are constructed based on Pb concentration (IC), the dosage of attapulgite clay (dose), contact time (CT), pH, and NaNO3 (SN). Principle component analysis (PCA) and correlation analysis (CA) methods are integrated to assess the importance of the applied predictors and their relationship with the target. Research findings approved the potential of the grid-RF model as a marginal superior predictive model against the grid-SVM in terms of MAE, i.e., 3.29 and 3.34, respectively; moreover, the md scored the same, i.e., 0.93, which reveals the potential predictability for both. Nonetheless, grid-MARS and standalone MARS models remained likewise in their predictability. IC parameter demonstrated the highest influential among all the predictors with the highest value of importance in the case of all three evaluators. The solution pH and dose stands together with marginal differences in case of PCA method; however, solution pH and CT appeared with similarity impact using the PCA method.

Abstract
Rapid industrial development is responsible for severe problems related to environmental pollution. Many human and industrial activities require different metals and, as a result, great amounts of metals/heavy metals are discharged into the water and soil making them dangerous for both human and ecosystems and this is being aggravated by intensive demand and utilization. In addition, compounds with metal binding capacities are needed to be used for several purposes including in activities related to the removal and/or recovery of metals from effluents and soils, as metals' corrosion inhibitors, in the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles and as metal related pharmaceuticals, preferably a with minimum risks associated to the environment. Plants are able to synthesize an uncountable number of compounds with numerous functions, including compounds with metal binding capabilities. In fact, some of the plants' secondary metabolites can bind to various metals through different mechanisms, as such they are excellent sources of such compounds due to their high availability and vast diversity. In addition, the use of plant-based compounds is desirable from an environmental and economical point of view, thus being potential candidates for utilization in different industrial activities, replacing conventional physiochemical methods. This review focuses on the ability of some classes of compounds that can be found in relatively high concentrations in plants, having good metal binding capacities and thus with potential utilization in metal based industrial activities and that can be involved in the progressive development of new environmentally friendly strategies.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) modified with ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) was further modified with the zeolite imidazole framework (ZIF-8) by in situ growth method and was employed as adsorbent for the removal of rare-earth elements (REEs). The material (EDTA-CS@ZIF-8) and ZIF-8 and CS were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and nitrogen adsorption/desorption experiments (N2- Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET)). The effects of adsorbent dosage, temperature, the pH of the aqueous solution, contact time on the adsorption of REEs (La(III), Eu(III), and Yb(III)) by EDTA-CS@ZIF-8 were studied. Typical adsorption isotherms (Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R)) were determined for the adsorption process, and the maximal adsorption capacity was estimated as 256.4 mg g-1 for La(III), 270.3 mg g-1 for Eu(III), and 294.1 mg g-1 for Yb(III). The adsorption kinetics results were consistent with the pseudo-second-order equation, indicating that the adsorption process was mainly chemical adsorption. The influence of competing ions on REE adsorption was also investigated. After multiple cycles of adsorption/desorption behavior, EDTA-CS@ZIF-8 still maintained high adsorption capacity for REEs. As a result, EDTA-CS@ZIF-8 possessed good adsorption properties such as stability and reusability, which have potential application in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
In the present study, a new class of hierarchical silica based imprinted mesoporous polymers was fabricated by ion imprinting technology and it was applied to simultaneous selective extraction of cadmium and lead ions by micro solid phase extraction (μ-SPE). The biological nanocrystalline cellulose (BNCC) was prepared via acid catalyzed hydrolysis of cotton wool. The hierarchical silica (HS), as a substrate material, was synthesized via dual-template method, using BNCC and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) as hard and soft templates respectively. The structure and functional groups was characterized by Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and nitrogen adsorption-desorption. The results indicate that the as-prepared material has a hierarchical mesoporous structure with high specific surface area and high adsorption capacity for Cd(II) and Pb(II). The optimum experimental conditions in the proposed procedure were determined by response surface methodology (RSM) based on Box Behnken Design (BBD) and then it was successfully applied to determine Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions in the river water and fish samples.

Abstract
A biosorbent composed of non-viable Pseudomonas putida trapped in agar beads was able to remove Cu2+ and Zn2+ from solutions containing one or both metals. The process in batch followed pseudo second-order kinetics, with adsorption capacities of 0.255 mg Cu2+/g and 0.170 mg Zn2+/g according to the Langmuir isotherm. These values were up to ten times lower for beads without biomass. The metals became bound to OH, CH2, CO, COC and COP groups, with the last three being provided by the biomass, which highlights its importance. Adsorption values for single-metal solutions filtered in a fixed-bed column were 0.152 mg Cu2+/g and 0.117 mg Zn2+/g, but decreased to 0.075 and 0.058, respectively, with mixed-metal solutions (1:1 ratio). In 10:1-ratio solutions, the metal in greater proportion was better adsorbed. Under all conditions, removal percentage was ∼60 %. The column could be reused throughout ten absorption/desorption cycles without significant alterations in adsorption capacity.

MEMBRANES 2020; 11:membranes11010010. [PMID: 33374757 PMCID: PMC7823771 DOI: 10.3390/membranes11010010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2020] [Revised: 12/16/2020] [Accepted: 12/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
We investigated the adsorption of lead (Pb2+) and nickel (Ni2+) ions by electrospun membranes of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber activated with NaHCO3 (PANmod). Analysis by Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) validated the functionalization of PAN nanofibers with NaHCO3, and the successful agglomeration of Pb2+ and Ni2+ onto PANmod. After a rapid uptake of the heavy metal ions (15 min), the equilibrium contact time was attained (60 min) following a linear increase of both adsorption capacity and removal efficiency. PANmod showed a better affinity for Ni2+ than Pb2+. The adsorption on PANmod was best described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model for both studied models, supporting chemisorption. By varying the solution pH from 2.0 to 9.0, we found that the adsorption capacity followed an increasing trend, reaching a maximum at the pH of 7.0. Despite increasing adsorption capacities, the removal efficiency of both heavy metal ions exhibited a decreasing trend with increase in initial concentrations. The amount of PANmod directly affects the removal efficiency, with 0.7 and 0.2 g being the optimum dose for maximum uptake of Pb2+ and Ni2+, respectively. The Langmuir model fitted well the Pb2+ adsorption data suggesting monolayer adsorption, and the Freundlich model perfectly fitted the Ni2+ adsorption data, indicating heterogeneous adsorption. The estimated values of the mean free energy of adsorption in the D–R isotherm indicated a physical adsorption of both heavy metal ions into the surface of the PANmod.

Abstract
In this study, Pb doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by a sol-gel technique for the sorption of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) textile dye in aqueous solution. The ZnO:Pb (2 and 4%) nanoparticles have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and cryogenic nitrogen adsorption method. The average size of the synthesized nanoparticles was less than 100 nm and the surface areas were 18.8 and 20.8 m2/g, respectively for ZnO:Pb 2% and ZnO:Pb 4%. Batch sorption experiments were performed for color removal of RB5 dye at ambient temperature and 30 mg/L dye concentration. The central composite design with response surface methodology was used to study the effect of sorption condition (pH, nanoparticles dose and contact time). The significance of independent variables and their interactions was tested by analysis of variance. The optimum conditions of color removal were pH = 7, 2 g/L dose of nanoparticles and a contact time of 79 min. The color removal performance was 79.4 and 98.1% for ZnO:Pb 2 and 4% respectively. The pseudo-second-order model described well the removal rates while the Langmuir model fitted well the adsorption isotherms.

Abstract
La contaminación por metales pesados es un problema que afecta a los ambientes acuáticos y terrestres, y cuya principal fuente son las actividades antrópicas. Para atender este problema, la comunidad científica ha desarrollado métodos físico-químicos para la remoción de metales pesados en efluentes contaminados: sin embargo, la mayoría no son económicamente favorables, ya que presentan elevados costos de operación y mantenimiento, además de que algunos generan residuos difíciles de manejar. Sin embargo, existe un método de bajo costo, altamente eficiente y sin formación de contaminantes secundarios, denominado bioadsorción. La bioadsorción utiliza subproductos agroindustriales con el objetivo de utilizar la excesiva generación de estos residuos como bioadsorbentes, para la remoción de metales pesados en aguas residuales. La utilización de subproductos agroindustriales como bioadsorbentes ha mostrado ser una alternativa para su aprovechamiento, consecuentemente, México tiene potencial en la producción de bioadsorbentes. El objetivo de esta revisión es proporcionar información sistematizada del método de remoción de metales pesados por bioadsorción a través del uso de subproductos agroindustriales.

Abstract
This study investigates the use of microalgae as a biosorbent to eliminate heavy metals ions from wastewater. The Chlorella kessleri microalgae species was employed to biosorb heavy metals from synthetic wastewater specimens. FTIR, and SEM/XRD analyses were utilized to characterize the microalgal biomass (the adsorbent). The experiments were conducted with several process parameters, including initial solution pH, temperature, and microalgae biomass dose. In order to secure the best experimental conditions, the optimum parameters were estimated using an integrated response surface methodology (RSM), desirability function (DF), and crow search algorithm (CSA) modeling approach. A maximum lead(II) removal efficiency of 99.54% was identified by the RSM–DF platform with the following optimal set of parameters: pH of 6.34, temperature of 27.71 °C, and biomass dosage of 1.5 g L−1. The hybrid RSM–CSA approach provided a globally optimal solution that was similar to the results obtained by the RSM–DF approach. The consistency of the model-predicted optimum conditions was confirmed by conducting experiments under those conditions. It was found that the experimental removal efficiency (97.1%) under optimum conditions was very close (less than a 5% error) to the model-predicted value. The lead(II) biosorption process was better demonstrated by the pseudo-second order kinetic model. Finally, simultaneous removal of metals from wastewater samples containing a mixture of multiple heavy metals was investigated. The removal efficiency of each heavy metal was found to be in the following order: Pb(II) > Co(II) > Cu(II) > Cd(II) > Cr(II).

Abstract
Heavy metal contamination is a global issue, where the prevalent contaminants are arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr)(VI), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb). More often, they are collectively known as "most problematic heavy metals" and "toxic heavy metals" (THMs). Their treatment through a variety of biological processes is one of the prime interests in remediation studies, where heavy metal-microbe interaction approaches receive high interest for their cost effective and ecofriendly solutions. In this review, we provide an up to date information on different microbial processes (bioremediation) for the removal of THMs. For the same, emphasis is put on oxidation-reduction, biomineralization, bioprecipitation, bioleaching, biosurfactant technology, biovolatilization, biosorption, bioaccumulation, and microbe-assisted phytoremediation with their selective advantages and disadvantages. Further, the literature briefly discusses about the various setups of cleaning processes of THMs in environment under ex situ and in situ applications. Lately, the study sheds light on the manipulation of microorganisms through genetic engineering and nanotechnology for their advanced treatment approaches.

Abstract
In this study, chitosan beads modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) were successfully synthesized and employed for the removal of chromium(VI) (Cr(VI)). The adsorption performance of the adsorbent (SDS-chitosan beads) was examined by batch experiments. The partition coefficient (PC) as well as the adsorption capacity were evaluated to assess the true performance of the adsorbent in this work. The adsorbent (SDS-chitosan beads) showed a maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of 3.23 mg·g−1 and PC of 9.5 mg·g−1·mM−1 for Cr(VI). The prepared adsorbent was characterized by different techniques such as scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). We used inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for the determination of Cr(VI) in solution. The experimental data could be well-fitted by pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models. The thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption process was favorable under the higher temperature condition. The SDS-modified chitosan beads synthesized in this work represent a promising adsorbent for removing Cr(VI).

Abstract
The adsorption process of cadmium ions (Cd), manganese ions (Mn) and lead ions (Pb) onto the spent coffee grounds (SCG) and activated spent coffee grounds (biochar, A-SCG) was investigated. The SCG activation was carried out in the pyrolysis process in a fluidized bed reactor. scanning electron microscope (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) measurements and CHN analysis were used in order to define the differences between biomaterials. In the study the different mass of materials (0.2–0.5 g) and constant heavy metal volume and concentration (20 cm3/100 ppm) were investigated on the adsorption process. In order to describe the sorption parameters the Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin isotherms were used. The maximum adsorption for biochar reached 22.3 mg/g for Pb ions, 19.6 mg/g for Mn ions and 19.4 mg/g for Cd ions which were noticeably higher than the results obtained for spent coffee grounds which reached 13.6 mg/g for Pb ions, 13.0 mg/g for Mn ions and 11.0 mg/g for Cd ions. Metal ion adsorption on both SCG and A-SCG was best described by the Langmuir model, thus chemisorption was a dominant type of adsorption. Studying the kinetics of the sorption process, one can see that the process is of a chemical nature according to the best fit of the pseudo-second rate order model. The obtained results show that the chosen sorbents can be used for the removal of cadmium, manganese and lead compounds from aqueous solutions with high efficiency.

Abstract
During the past years, the ecological integrity and biodiversity of marine ecosystems have been highly threatened due to the controlled or uncontrolled release of high concentrations of pollutants generated through anthropogenic activities. The occurrence of environmentally related hazardous pollutants, such as toxic elements, and recalcitrant compounds in various environmental matrices has raised increasing concern. Different technologies have been developed for efficient removal and complete mitigation or degradation of these toxic elements from the aquatic environment. Among them, biosorption and bioaccumulation by renewable and biodegradable sources are of supreme interest and have not been reviewed much. For instance, the invasive seaweed Sargassum sp. has been spotted as a cost-effective natural material to capture targeted pollutants from the coastal ecosystem, which is currently becoming a pressing problem, around the globe, due to its unusual proliferation near tropical shores. This review is an effort to cover the left behind gap to present the multifunctional potentialities of Sargassum sp. biomass. Herein, salient information is given to highlight the potential of Sargassum sp. biomass for environmental decontamination with particular focus to coastal ecosystems. Bioremediation mechanisms, challenges of implementation and factors involved in adsorption and absorption of pollutants by seaweeds are also discussed in this review. Against this background, a circular economy perspective is given for the integrated use of the algal raw material. The up-taken pollutants can be recovered and reintegrated into the value chain of industrial processes, while residual biomass is refined to obtain added-value products as bioactive compounds with potential applications for biofuel, agriculture, cosmetics, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical industries among others, to make the most of renewable resources.

Abstract
Seaweeds are good bio-monitors of heavy metals pollution in coastal seawater. In the present study, the potential bioremediation effects of cultivated Gracilaria lemaneiformis on heavy metals in Nan'ao coastal sediment from a typical mariculture zone, South China were evaluated. Sediment samples were collected from five different zones (Gracilaria cultivation zone, G; Fish culture zone, F; Shellfish culture zone, S; Transition zone, T; Control zone, C) from December 2014 to July 2015. The concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cu, and Zn in the sediments were significantly different among the various types of mariculture areas. The concentrations varied widely: Cd (0.04-1.02) μg g-1; Cu (1.19-37.70) μg g-1; Pb (8.45-74.45) μg g-1; Zn (36.80-201.24) μg g-1. The lowest heavy metal concentrations in the sediment were occurred at Gracilaria cultivation zone, while higher concentrations occurred at control zones and fish culture zones. The pollution load index, principal components and cluster analysis showed that heavy metal concentrations were the highest at fish culture zone, while the concentrations were the lowest at Gracilaria cultivation zone, and Gracilaria cultivation affects the heavy metals in the sediments. Gracilaria had strong adsorption capacities for heavy metals from seawater, showing the highest heavy metal Bioconcentration Factors in May (higher seaweed biomass period). Consequently, the results suggested that Gracilaria cultivation influences the heavy metal concentrations in sediments from the typical coastal mariculture zone. Gracilaria cultivation has the potential to bioremediate heavy metals in the coastal sediments. Therefore, Gracilaria cultivation can add environmental advantages and ecological values to coastal mariculture zones.

Abstract
Terrestrial fungi, especially arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, enhance heavy metal sequestration and promote ecosystem restoration. However, their ecological functions were historically overlooked in discussions regarding water quality. As an AM fungi-derived stable soil protein fraction, glomalin-related soil protein (GRSP) may provide insights into the ecological functions of AM fungi associated with water quality in coastal ecosystems. Here, we first assessed the metal-loading dynamics and ecological functions of GRSP transported into aquatic ecosystems, characterized the composition characteristics, and revealed the mechanisms underlying Cu and Cd sequestration. Combining in situ sampling and in vitro cultures, we found that the composition characteristics of GRSP were significantly affected by the element and mineral composition of sediments. In situ, GRSP-bound Cu and Cd contributed 18.91-22.03% of the total Cu and 2.27-6.37% of the total Cd. Functional group ligands and ion exchange were the principal mechanisms of Cu binding by GRSP, while Cd binding was dominated by functional group ligands. During the in vitro experiment, GRSP sequestered large amounts of Cu and Cd and formed stable complexes, while further dialysis only released 25.74 ± 3.85% and 33.53 ± 3.62% of GRSP-bound Cu and Cd, respectively.

Abstract
The use of algae to adsorb heavy metals is an efficient and environmentally friendly treatment for contaminated water and has attracted widespread research attention. In this study, a meta-analysis of the heavy metal adsorption capacity of algae from five different phyla and the factors influencing these capacities was conducted. Phaeophyta was found to have a high heavy metal adsorption capacity, whereas Bacillariophyta had a relatively low adsorption capacity; Chlorophyta, Rhodophyta, and Cyanophyta had moderate adsorption capacities. Non-living algae were more effective in practical applications than living algae were. Algal biomass had a relatively high adsorption efficiency of 1-10 g/L, which did not increase significantly when algal concentration increased. The algal adsorption efficiency for initial heavy metal concentrations of 10-100 mg/L was higher than for concentrations of greater than 100 mg/L. The results further show that algal adsorption of heavy metals reached a maximum capacity of 80-90% within 20 min. Heavy metal adsorption by algae was not temperature-dependent, and it was more effective in moderately to weakly acidic environments (pH = 4-7.5). Considering these aspects for practical applications, algae from some phyla can effectively be used for heavy metal biosorption in contaminated water.

Adsorption of Cu(II) Ions on Adsorbent Materials Obtained from Marine Red Algae Callithamnion corymbosum sp. WATER 2020.

Abstract
In recent years, studies on the more efficient use of natural materials in adsorption processes have increased significantly. Thus, obtaining new adsorbents from marine algae biomass with higher adsorptive performance will ensure a better use of these renewable resources. In this study, the adsorption of Cu(II) ions from aqueous solution was done using three types of adsorbent materials obtained from marine red algae biomass (Callithamnion corymbosum sp.), namely: alginate (Alg), algae waste biomass resulted after alginate extraction (AWB) and iron nanoparticles functionalized with alginate (Fe-NPs-Alg), compared to raw marine red algae biomass (RAB). FTIR spectra and SEM images recorded for each type of adsorbent indicate a porous structure and the presence of various superficial functional groups who may be involved in the retention of Cu(II) ions. The biosorption experiments were performed in a batch system, at different initial Cu(II) ion concentrations and contact times, maintaining a constant initial solution pH (4.4), adsorbent dose (2.0 g/L), and temperature (25 ± 1 °C). The obtained results indicate that the retention of Cu(II) ions requires a maximum of 60 min to reach equilibrium, and the maximum adsorption capacity increases in order: RAB (47.62 mg/g) < Fe-NPs-Alg (52.63 mg/g) < AWB (83.33 mg/g) < Alg (166.66 mg/g). The quantitative removal of Cu(II) ions from aqueous effluents can be done in two successive adsorption stages, using AWB (in the first stage) and Fe-NPs-Alg (in the second stage), when the treated solution has a Cu(II) ions concentration below the maximum permissible limit. The quantitative recovery of retained Cu(II) ions (over 97%) can be done by treating these exhausted adsorbent materials with 0.1 N HNO3 solution. Therefore, the extraction of alginate from marine red algae biomass could be a viable solution to obtain efficient adsorbent materials for Cu(II) ions removal from aqueous media, and allow for a better valorisation of marine red algae biomass.

Abstract
Heavy metals are a growing threat to human health due to the resulting damage to the ecology; the removal of heavy metals by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has been a focus of many studies. In this study, 10 LAB strains were evaluated for their ability to absorb and tolerate lead. Lactobacillus plantarum YW11 was found to possess the strongest ability of lead absorbing and tolerance, with the rate of absorption as high as 99.9% and the minimum inhibitory concentration of lead on YW11 higher than 1000 mg/L. Based on the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomics analysis of YW11, a total of 2009 proteins were identified both in the lead-treated strain and the control without the lead treatment. Among these proteins, 44 different proteins were identified. The abundance of 25 proteins increased significantly, and 19 proteins decreased significantly in the treatment group. These significantly differential abundant proteins are involved in the biological processes of amino acid and lipid metabolism, energy metabolism, cell wall biosynthesis, and substance transport. This study contributed further understanding of the molecular mechanism of L. plantarum in the binding and removal of lead to explore its potential application in counteracting heavy metal pollution of environment, food, and other fields.
