Abstract
Nanocelluloses (NCs) isolated from lignocellulosic resources usually require harsh chemical pretreatments to remove lignin, which face constraints such as high energy consumption and inefficient resource utilization. An alternative strategy involving the partial retention of lignin can be adopted to endow NCs with better versatility and functionality. The resulting lignin-containing nanocelluloses (LNCs) generally possess better mechanical property, thermal stability, barrier property, antioxidant activity, and surface hydrophobicity than lignin-free NCs, which have attracted extensive interest as a promising green nanomaterial for numerous applications. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the recent advances in the preparation, properties, and food application of LNCs. The effect of residual lignin on the preparation and properties of LNCs is discussed. Furthermore, the key roles of lignin in the properties of LNCs, including particle size, crystalline structure, dispersibility, thermal, mechanical, antibacterial, rheological and adhesion properties, are summarized comprehensively. Furthermore, capitalizing on their dietary fiber and nanostructure properties, the food applications of LNCs in the forms of films, gels and emulsions are also discussed. Finally, the challenges and opportunities regarding the development of LNCs are provided.

Antimicrobial Composites Based on Methacrylic Acid-Methyl Methacrylate Electrospun Fibers Stabilized with Copper(II). Molecules 2024; 29:2835. [PMID: 38930901 PMCID: PMC11206514 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29122835] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 06/08/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
This study presents fibers based on methacrylic acid-methyl methacrylate (Eudragit L100) as Cu(II) adsorbents, resulting in antimicrobial complexes. Eudragit L100, an anionic copolymer synthesized by radical polymerization, was electrospun in dimethylformamide (DMF) and ethanol (EtOH). The electrospinning process was optimized through a 22-factorial design, with independent variables (copolymer concentration and EtOH/DMF volume ratio) and three repetitions at the central point. The smallest average fiber diameter (259 ± 53 nm) was obtained at 14% w/v Eudragit L100 and 80/20 EtOH/DMF volume ratio. The fibers were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectroscopy in attenuated total reflectance mode (FTIR-ATR), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The pseudo-second-order mechanism explained the kinetic adsorption toward Cu(II). The fibers exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity (qe) of 43.70 mg/g. The DSC analysis confirmed the Cu(II) absorption, indicating complexation between metallic ions and copolymer networks. The complexed fibers showed a lower degree of swelling than the non-complexed fibers. The complexed fibers exhibited bacteriostatic activity against Gram-negative (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria. This study successfully optimized the electrospinning process to produce thin fibers based on Eudragit L100 for potential applications as adsorbents for Cu(II) ions in aqueous media and for controlling bacterial growth.

Preparation of reusable hydrogel spheres based on sodium alginate/Fe 3O 4 modified with carboxymethyl Huangshui polysaccharide and the efficient adsorption performance for methylene blue. Food Chem 2024; 438:138064. [PMID: 37995582 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.138064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 11/05/2023] [Accepted: 11/20/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
This study successfully constructed a novel multifunctional bio-adsorbent using sodium alginate (SA), ferroferric oxide (FFO), and carboxymethyl Huangshui polysaccharide (CMHSP) with rapid separation, pH sensitivity, efficient adsorption, and reusability for enhancing the removal of methylene blue (MB) in wastewater. FTIR, XRD, SEM, and VSM results indicated CMHSP improved the porosity of the hydrogel spheres, thus significantly enhancing the MB adsorption capacity with the rate-limiting controlled by chemical adsorption, intraparticle diffusion, and film diffusion. The maximum adsorption capacity obtained from Langmuir model of SA-FFO-CMHSP (186.57 mg/g) was obviously higher than that of SA-FFO (178.82 mg/g). Thermodynamic results showed that the MB adsorption process was endothermic, spontaneous, and favorable, and physical adsorption was dominant. Remarkably, MB adsorption maintained 87% ∼ 95% of the initial after four adsorption-desorption cycles, and proper carboxymethylation was conducive to MB adsorption over a broader range pH. These findings provided reference for designing new efficient bio-adsorbents and the recyclable utilization of Huangshui by-products, which was of great value.

Integrated acetic acid and deep eutectic solvent pretreatment on poplar for co-production of xylo-oligosaccharides, fermentable sugars and lignin antioxidants/adsorbents. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 259:129138.

Abstract
Efficient fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass in usable forms of hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin is very important for the sustainable lignocellulosic biorefinery. Herein, poplar sawdust was pretreated with an integrated process composed of acetic acid pre-hydrolysis (170 °C, 60 min) for xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) production and mild deep eutectic solvent (90-130 °C, 60 min) post-delignification for recovering lignin fractions, resulting in easily hydrolyzed cellulose fraction. Results showed that, after integrated pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis, 51 % of xylan and 92 % of glucan in raw biomass could be converted to XOS (DP 2-6) and glucose, respectively, while 71 % of the original lignin could be recovered in DES solvent. The resulting XOS were proven to ensure the growth of probiotics, Bifidobacterium adolescentis. Besides, the lignin macromolecules recovered from DES solvent showed high-purity (around 95 %), low-molecular weight (Mw around 2000), small particle size (270-170 nm) and high-PhOH (3.08 mmol/g) content, which were likely relevant to the excellent antioxidant activity (RSI = 15.16) and adsorbent activity (Pb(II) 461.89 mg/g lignin). Finally, mass balance and energy analysis revealed that the integrated pretreatment could be used as a promising approach for the production of bio-based chemicals and materials from woody biomass.

Abstract
Rapid extraction and concentration systems based on green materials such as cellulose or lignin are promising. However, there is still a need to optimize the material properties and production processes. Unlike conventional cellulose or lignin sorbent materials, aquatic reed root cells can concentrate external organic pollutants in the water and accumulate them in the plant. Inspired by this, a new nanocellulose-lignin aerogel (NLAG) was designed, in which nanocellulose was used as a substrate and lignin and polyamide epoxy chloropropane were used to crosslink cellulose in order to enhance the strength of the NLGA, resulting in good mechanical stability and water-oil amphiphilic properties. In practical applications, the organic membrane on the NLAG can transport organic pollutants from water to the NLAG, where they are immobilized. This is evidenced by the fact that the aerogel can remove more than 93% of exogenous phenol within a few minutes, highly enriching it inside. In addition, the aerogel facilitates filtration and shape recovery for reuse. This work establishes a novel biopolymer-aerogel-based extraction system with the advantages of sustainability, high efficiency, stability, and easy detachability, which are hard for the traditional adsorbent materials to attain.

Sulfation of Birch Wood Microcrystalline Cellulose with Sulfamic Acid Using Ion-Exchange Resins as Catalysts. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15051116.

Abstract
Cellulose sulfates are important biologically active substances with a wide range of useful properties. The development of new methods for the production of cellulose sulfates is an urgent task. In this work, we investigated ion-exchange resins as catalysts for the sulfation of cellulose with sulfamic acid. It has been shown that water-insoluble sulfated reaction products are formed in high yield in the presence of anion exchangers, while water-soluble products are formed in the presence of cation exchangers. The most effective catalyst is Amberlite IR 120. According to gel permeation chromatography, it was shown that the samples sulfated in the presence of the catalysts KU-2-8, Purolit s390 plus, and AN-31 SO42- underwent the greatest degradation. The molecular weight destribution profiles of these samples are noticeably shifted to the left towards low-molecular-weight compounds with an increase in fractions in the regions Mw ~2.100 g/mol and ~3.500 g/mol, indicating the growth of microcrystalline cellulose depolymerization products. The introduction of a sulfate group into the cellulose molecule is confirmed using FTIR spectroscopy by the appearance of absorption bands at 1245-1252 cm-1 and 800-809 cm-1, which correspond to the vibrations of the sulfate group. According to X-ray diffraction data, amorphization of the crystalline structure of cellulose is observed during sulfation. Thermal analysis has shown that with an increase in the content of sulfate groups in cellulose derivatives, thermal stability decreases.

Abstract
Nanostructured materials offer a significant role in wastewater treatment with diminished capital and operational expense, low dose, and pollutant selectivity. Specifically, the nanocomposites of cellulose with inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) have drawn a prodigious interest because of the extraordinary cellulose properties, high specific surface area, and pollutant selectivity of NPs. Integrating inorganic NPs with cellulose biopolymers for wastewater treatment is a promising advantage for inorganic NPs, such as colloidal stability, agglomeration prevention, and easy isolation of magnetic material after use. This article presents a comprehensive overview of water treatment approaches following wastewater remediation by green and environmentally friendly cellulose/inorganic nanoparticles-based bio-nanocomposites. The functionalization of cellulose, functionalization mechanism, and engineered hybrid materials were thoroughly discussed. Moreover, we also highlighted the purification of wastewater through the composites of cellulose/inorganic nanoparticles via adsorption, photocatalytic and antibacterial approach.

Abstract
The utilization of solid waste for resource recovery and production of value-added products is the theme of green chemistry. Currently, how to using solid wastes to prepare environmentally-functional materials with high performance and strength is one of the hot topics. In this research, electrolytic manganese residue (EMR) was thermally activated with calcite to prepare a silicon-based functionalized adsorbent (C-EMR) for the removal of cadmium (Cd2+, 467.14 mg/g) and lead (Pb2+, 972 mg/g). The thermodynamic results indicated that the removal process of Cd2+ and Pb2+ by C-EMR were endothermic and spontaneous. HNO3 can effectively strip the two adsorbed metals from C-EMR with the stripping efficiency of nearly 80% for Cd2+ and 99.92% for Pb2+, indicating that adsorption and ion exchange may be the main reason for the removal of the metals on C-EMR. Besides, surface precipitation was also responsible for removing some Pb2+ from the aquatic environment according to the X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS) analysis. Results indicate that -SiO3- has stronger affinity with Pb2+ and Cd2+ than other groups ((-MnO2), -OH) by theoretical calculation (VASP, GGA-PBE). This study shows that this novel adsorbent (C-EMR) can be adopted as an environmentally-friendly, inexpensive and efficient adsorbent for removal of Cd2+ and Pb2+ from aquatic solution. This technique not only provides potential adsorbent for the elimination of heavy metals but also proposes an alternative route for the treatment and utilization of waste solid.

Abstract
Heavy metal ions in industrial sewage constitute a serious threat to human health. Nanocellulose-based adsorbents are emerging as an environmentally friendly material platform for heavy metal ion removal based on their unique properties, which include high specific surface area, excellent mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. In this review, we cover the most recent works on nanocellulose-based adsorbents for heavy metal ion removal and present an in-depth discussion of the modification technologies for nanocellulose in the process of assembling high-performance heavy ion adsorbents. By introducing functional groups, such as amino, carboxyl, aldehyde, and thiol, the assembled nanocellulose-based adsorbents both remove single heavy metal ions and can selectively adsorb multiple heavy ions in water. Finally, the remaining challenges of nanocellulose-based adsorbents are pointed out. We anticipate that this review will provide indispensable guidance on the application of nanocellulose-based adsorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions.

Abstract
Lead is one of the most hazardous toxic heavy metal ions in industrial wastewater. The removal of Pb(II) from aqueous environment is an extremely essential topic due to acquiring clean water resources and its significant impact on human health. Adsorption is an effective and the most widely used method for heavy metal removal from an aqueous medium. Nanofibers have potential advantages in the adsorption of heavy metal ions from wastewater. In this study, nanofibers based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were fabricated for the removal of lead ions from aqueous samples. Nanofibers produced by electrospinning were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM/EDX) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) techniques. A batch system was used for the adsorption of Pb(II) ions onto cross-linked PVA (%10) and PVA (%10):MSs (%2) (Malva Sylestris L. seed biomaterial) nanofibers. The effectiveness of cross-linking was determined by the water absorbency test. The pH, adsorbent amount, adsorption kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamic values were thoroughly investigated in the adsorption tests. Pb(II) adsorption on the polymer was confirmed by EDX analysis. The optimum values found were a pH of 6, an adsorbent dose of 5.0 mg, and a contact time of 120 min. Lead ion concentrations were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). The Freundlich models could explain the results from the adsorption data. Similar results were obtained from adsorption isotherm models, and the results were found to support each other. The adsorption capacity for PVA (10%) and PVA (10%):MSs (2%) nanofibers were found to be 444.2 mg g-1 and 588.2 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption capacity increases with the addition of MSs (2%) biomaterial. As a result, nanofibers can be used as effective adsorbents in the removal of Pb(II) ions. The developed methods are environmentally friendly and promising for the separation of toxic Pb(II) ions from aqueous systems, which is a major problem for environmental pollution.

Abstract
Soda lignin is a by-product of the soda process for producing cellulose from grassy raw materials. Since a method for the industrial processing of lignin of this type is still lacking, several research teams have been working on solving this problem. We first propose a modification of soda lignin with sulfamic acid over solid catalysts. As solid catalysts for lignin sulfation, modified carbon catalysts (with acid sites) and titanium and aluminum oxides have been used. In the elemental analysis, it is shown that the maximum sulfur content (16.5 wt%) was obtained with the Sibunit-4® catalyst oxidized at 400 °C. The incorporation of a sulfate group has been proven by the elemental analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The molecular weight distribution has been examined by gel permeation chromatography. It has been demonstrated that the solid catalysts used in the sulfation process causes hydrolysis reactions and reduces the molecular weight and polydispersity index. It has been established by the thermal analysis that sulfated lignin is thermally stabile at temperatures of up to 200 °C. According to the atomic force microscopy data, the surface of the investigated film consists of particles with an average size of 50 nm. The characteristics of the initial and sulfated β-O-4 lignin model compounds have been calculated and recorded using the density functional theory.

Abstract
Nanocelluloses (NC) are nature-based sustainable biomaterials, which not only possess cellulosic properties but also have the important hallmarks of nanomaterials, such as large surface area, versatile reactive sites or functionalities, and scaffolding stability to host inorganic nanoparticles. This class of nanomaterials offers new opportunities for a broad spectrum of applications for clean water production that were once thought impractical. This Review covers substantial discussions based on evaluative judgments of the recent literature and technical advancements in the fields of coagulation/flocculation, adsorption, photocatalysis, and membrane filtration for water decontamination through proper understanding of fundamental knowledge of NC, such as purity, crystallinity, surface chemistry and charge, suspension rheology, morphology, mechanical properties, and film stability. To supplement these, discussions on low-cost and scalable NC extraction, new characterizations including solution small-angle X-ray scattering evaluation, and structure-property relationships of NC are also reviewed. Identifying knowledge gaps and drawing perspectives could generate guidance to overcome uncertainties associated with the adaptation of NC-enabled water purification technologies. Furthermore, the topics of simultaneous removal of multipollutants disposal and proper handling of post/spent NC are discussed. We believe NC-enabled remediation nanomaterials can be integrated into a broad range of water treatments, greatly improving the cost-effectiveness and sustainability of water purification.

Cationic Lignocellulose Nanofibers from Agricultural Waste as High-Performing Adsorbents for the Removal of Dissolved and Colloidal Substances. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14050910.

Abstract
The accumulation of dissolved and colloidal substances (DCS) in the increasingly closed paper circulating water system can seriously lower the productivity and safety of papermaking machines, and it has been a challenge to develop an adsorbent with low cost, high adsorption efficiency and large adsorption capacity for DCS removal. In this study, cationic lignocellulose nanofibers (CLCNF) were obtained by cationic modification of agricultural waste bagasse in deep eutectic solvents (DES) followed by mechanical defibrillation, and then CLCNF were employed as an adsorbent for DCS model contaminant polygalacturonic acid (PGA) removal. CLCNF was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared, elemental analysis, X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis. The analytical results confirmed the successful preparation of CLCNF with 4.6–7.9 nm diameters and 0.97–1.76 mmol/g quaternary ammonium groups. The effects of quaternary ammonium group contents, pH, contact time and initial concentration of PGA on the adsorption were investigated in a batch adsorption study. According to the results, the cationic modification significantly enhanced the adsorption of PGA by CLCNF and the adsorption performance increased with the increase of the quaternary ammonium group contents. The adsorption of PGA on CLCNF followed the pseudo-second-order and the fitted Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption showed fast initial kinetics and the experimental maximum adsorption capacity was 1054 mg/g, which is much higher than PGA adsorbents previously reported in the literature. Therefore, CLCNF with high cationic group content developed in this paper is a promising adsorbent for DCS removal.

Abstract
This review considers the most recent developments in supramolecular and supraparticle structures obtained from natural, renewable biopolymers as well as their disassembly and reassembly into engineered materials. We introduce the main interactions that control bottom-up synthesis and top-down design at different length scales, highlighting the promise of natural biopolymers and associated building blocks. The latter have become main actors in the recent surge of the scientific and patent literature related to the subject. Such developments make prominent use of multicomponent and hierarchical polymeric assemblies and structures that contain polysaccharides (cellulose, chitin, and others), polyphenols (lignins, tannins), and proteins (soy, whey, silk, and other proteins). We offer a comprehensive discussion about the interactions that exist in their native architectures (including multicomponent and composite forms), the chemical modification of polysaccharides and their deconstruction into high axial aspect nanofibers and nanorods. We reflect on the availability and suitability of the latter types of building blocks to enable superstructures and colloidal associations. As far as processing, we describe the most relevant transitions, from the solution to the gel state and the routes that can be used to arrive to consolidated materials with prescribed properties. We highlight the implementation of supramolecular and superstructures in different technological fields that exploit the synergies exhibited by renewable polymers and biocolloids integrated in structured materials.

Abstract
This study assessed the capacity of leaf litters to adsorb copper ions applied as a copper-based pesticide. Leaf litters of two fruit tree species with different lignin/N ratios were examined to determine their protective role against the incorporation of Cu into soil. A leaf litter Cu-adsorption capacity assay and a degradation assay were performed using table grape (lignin/N = 2.35) and kiwi (lignin/N = 10.85) leaf litters. Table grape leaf litter had a significantly (p = 0.001) higher Cu-adsorption capacity (15,800 mg kg-1) than kiwi leaf litter (14,283 mg kg-1). Following leaf litter degradation, significant differences (p = 0.011) were observed in the release of Cu from Cu-enriched leaf litter into soil, showing that kiwi litter has a greater protective effect against the incorporation of Cu into soil, regardless of the amount of Cu applied. This protective role is reflected in a significantly higher (p = 0.015) Cu concentration in table grape soil (41.71 ± 2.14 mg kg-1) than in kiwi soil (35.87 ± 0.69 mg kg-1). Therefore, leaf litter with higher lignin/N ratio has greater protective role against copper incorporation into soil.

Abstract
Water pollution is a major global challenge given the increasing growth in the industry and the human population. The present study aims to investigate the efficiency of TiO2 and γ-Al2O3 nanoadsorbents for removal of copper (Cu(II)) from aqueous solution as influenced by different chemical factors including pH, initial concentration, background electrolyte and, ionic strength. The batch adsorption experiment was performed according to standard experimental methods. Various isotherm models (Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevich) were fitted to the equilibrium data. According to geochemical modeling data, adsorption was a predominant mechanism for Cu(II) removal from aqueous solution. Calculated isotherm equations parameters were evidence of the physical adsorption mechanism of Cu(II) onto the surface of the nanoparticles. The Freundlich adsorption isotherm model could well fit the experimental equilibrium data at different pH values. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of TiO2 and γ-Al2O3 nanosorbents were found to 9288 and 3607 mg kg-1 at the highest pH value (pH 8) and the highest initial Cu(II) concentration (80 mg L-1) respectively. Copper )Cu(II) (removal efficiency with TiO2 and γ-Al2O3 nanoparticles increased by increasing pH. Copper )Cu(II) (adsorption deceased by increasing ionic strength. The maximum Cu(II) adsorption (4510 mg kg-1) with TiO2 nanoparticles was found at 0.01 M ionic strength in the presence of NaCl. Thermodynamic calculations show the adsorption of Cu(II) ions onto the nanoparticles was spontaneous in nature. Titanium oxide (TiO2) nanosorbents could, therefore, serve as an efficient and low-cost nanomaterial for the remediation of Cu(II) ions polluted aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Abstract
In this study, the nanocomposites from biomass (soybean straw) and layered double hydroxides (LDHs), denoted as B/LDHs, were fabricated using the mechanical-hydrothermal method. The obtained B/LDHs nanocomposites were characterized by TEM, SEM, FT-IR, and N2 adsorption–desorption techniques. Adsorption of the heavy-metal ions Pb(ii) on the B/LDHs was determined at 25°C and pH 6.0 using a batch technique. The experimental results demonstrated that biomass contributed to the sorption process. The pseudo-second-order, Langmuir, and Freundlich models well fitted the sorption process, indicating chemisorption and monolayer adsorption were the main adsorption mechanisms. Meanwhile, it is found that there is an obvious effect of adsorbent concentration in the studied adsorption system. In comparison with soybean straw and Mg–Al LDHs, the B/LDHs nanocomposites exhibit significantly enhanced sorption capacities. It is evident from this study that the construction of B/LDHs nanocomposites is an effective strategy for improving the sorption capacity of LDHs, and the modified LDH-based adsorbent shows a good potential in the removal of heavy metals from water. More importantly, it solves the problem of a large number of agricultural waste disposals. And, it achieved the goal of a win-win situation.

Abstract
The use of Reactive Deep Eutectic Solvents (RDESs) in the preparation of polar head modified phospholipids (PLs) with phospholipase D (PLD)-catalyzed biotransformations has been investigated. Natural phosphatidylcholine (PC) has been submitted to PLD-catalyzed transphosphatidylations using a new reaction medium composed by a mixture of RDES/buffer. Instead of exploiting deep eutectic solvents conventionally, just as the reaction media, these solvents have been designed here in order to contribute actively to the synthetic processes by participating as reagents. RDESs were prepared using choline chloride or trimethyl glycine as hydrogen-bond acceptors and glycerol or ethylene glycol, as hydrogen-bond donors as well as nucleophiles for choline substitution. Specifically designed RDES/buffer reaction media allowed the obtainment of PLs with optimized yields in the perspective of a sustainable process implementation.

Abstract
A facile technique has been used to synthesize the strontium phosphate interlinked with graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (SrP/g-CN NSs) nanocomposite for highly selective detection of acetaminophen (AP). The formation of SrP/g-CN NSs nanocomposite is evidenced by several spectroscopic and analytical methods. It was demonstrated that the SrP/g-CN NSs modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) exhibits excellent catalytic performance with low peak potential towards AP detection than those of pristine SrP-, g-CN NSs-, and bare- SPCEs. The outstanding electrochemical performance can be attributed to the robust synergistic effect between SrP and g-CN NSs. Likewise, g-CN NSs possess a porous multilayer network, which provides a large surface area, fast charge transferability, electrical conductivity, and numerous active sites. Under the optimal conditions, the fabricated sensor could detect AP with a linear relationship range from 0.01 to 370 µM, and the detection limit is calculated to be as low as 2.0 nM. The proposed sensor is successfully used to determine AP in water samples with satisfactory results.

Xie N, Wang H, You C. Role of oxygen functional groups in Pb 2+ adsorption from aqueous solution on carbonaceous surface: A density functional theory study. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 405:124221. [PMID: 33082021 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.124221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Revised: 09/18/2020] [Accepted: 10/06/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
The adsorption mechanism of Pb2+ from aqueous solution on carbonaceous surface modified with oxygen functional groups was investigated by using density functional theory method. The zigzag model with seven benzene rings and armchair model with four benzene rings were used to simulate the different structures of carbonaceous surfaces. It was found that the adsorption of Pb2+ on the pure zigzag surface was chemisorption with the adsorption energy of - 306.26 to - 322.36 kJ/mol, while that on the armchair surface was physisorption with the adsorption energy of - 32.39 kJ/mol. The introduction of oxygen functional groups significantly enhanced the Pb2+ adsorption on the armchair surface. The physisorption changed to chemisorption after adding carboxyl, phenolic hydroxyl, or carbonyl functional group, indicating the stronger adsorption ability of the carbonaceous surfaces after modification. On the zigzag surface, however, the studied functional groups cannot benefit the Pb2+ adsorption. The results showed that the Pb2+ tended to adsorb on the carbon atoms instead of moving to the oxygen atoms from the introduced functional groups for adsorption, which suggests that the oxygen functional groups promoted the Pb2+ adsorption by increasing the activity of their neighboring carbon atoms.

Abstract
Pulp and paper mill wastewater contains lignin related synthetic, aromatic and chlorinated chemical compounds. Extracting lignin from pulp and paper mill wastewater is one way of recovering valuable organic material. Due to its complex structure, lignin is difficult to break and provides economical and technical provocations in biomass recovery. The conventional wastewater treatment processes are seldom efficacious for the complete removal of lignin from paper mill effluents. A wide range of thermal, mechanical and physico-chemical methods have been reported for the removal of lignin. Moreover, biological method of lignin removal employed microorganisms including bacteria and fungi as a one-step treatment and/or amalgamation of various physico-chemical techniques. Compared with other methods, biological process for degradation of lignin is regarded as eco-friendly, cost-effective and sustainable. Therefore, this review will provide insight into the recent breakthroughs and future trends in lignin removal with special emphasis on biological treatment and scope of lignin utilization.

A novel composite of SiO 2 decorated with nano ferrous oxalate (SDNF) for efficient and highly selective removal of Pb 2+ from aqueous solutions. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 391:122193. [PMID: 32062548 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.122193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2020] [Accepted: 01/25/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Developing a material with high adsorption capacity and selectivity to remove lead from Pb2+ polluted wastewater is of vital importance for environment protection and resources utilization. In this study, a novel composite, SiO2 decorated with nano ferrous oxalate (SDNF), was prepared from natural biotite containing ores to remove Pb2+. Pseudo-first-order kinetic (R2 = 0.99) and Langmuir models (R2 = 0.99) fitted the data well, manifesting that Pb2+ adsorption process was monolayer adsorption. The maximum Pb2+ adsorption capacity was identified as 446.98 mg/g. SEM and TEM images showed that nano ferrous oxalate with average size of 11.51 nm was coated on the surface of ores, and their distributions were uniform. Results of XRD, XPS, FTIR and zeta potential indicated that ion exchange, surface complexation and electrostatic attraction interaction were involved in the remvoal of Pb2+, and the ion exchange between Fe2+ and Pb2+ played a major role. Moreover, both Cd2+ and Zn2+ removal efficiency are less than 2 % in Pb-Cd or Pb-Zn coexisted solution, indicating the composite possessed high selectivity for Pb2+ removal. All above results indicated that the composite was a material with high adsorption capacity and selectivity for Pb2+, which was suitable for remediation of Pb2+ pollution from Pb2+ containing wastewater.
