Abstract
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) synthesized from chain functional monomers are restricted by spatial extension and exhibit relatively poor affinity and selectivity; this results in unsatisfactory applications in complex media. In this study, we prepared unique spherical carbonized polymer dots (CPDs-OH) via the incomplete carbonization of 1-allyl-3-vinylimidazolium bromide and ethylene glycol, and used it as a functional monomer to prepare a newly imprinted polymer (CPDs-OH@MIP) in aqueous media. As a result, the CPDs-OH@MIP exhibited effective recognition of oxytetracycline with an impressive imprinting factor of 6.17, surpassing MIPs prepared with chain functional monomers (1-3). Furthermore, CPDs-OH@MIP exhibited excellent adsorption for oxytetracycline (278.52 mg g-1) and achieved equilibrium in 30 min, with stronger resistance to coexisting cations, anions, and humic acid. Compared to other MIPs and adsorbents, the recognition performance of CPDs-OH@MIP improved 2-4 times; this polymer could remove >92.1% of oxytetracycline in real water samples with at least 10 cycle times. CPDs-OH@MIP prepared using the special spherical monomer forms a denser structure with fewer nonimprinted regions and precisely imprinted sites, remarkably improving the affinity and selectivity of MIPs combined via hydrogen bonds and electrostatic and π-π interactions. Our proposed strategy provides an effective basis for breakthroughs in the practical application of MIPs.

Role of soil organic matter on the retention and mobility of common plastic additives, Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, bisphenol A and benzophenone, in soil. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 236:116725. [PMID: 37487922 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Revised: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/26/2023]
Abstract
The objectives of this study were to assess the role of soil organic matter on retaining plastic additives, Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), Bisphenol A (BPA) and Benzophenone (BP), to postulate the retention mechanisms and mobility in soil. Batch experiments were conducted for red yellow podzolic soil (OM) and soil subjected to high temperature oxidation at 600 °C for 2 h to remove total organic matter (OMR). Pristine soil, which contains organic matter abbreviated as OM (soil with organic matter) whereas total organic matter removed soil is abbreviated as OMR (organic matter removed soil). The pH edge and kinetic experiments were conducted with 20 g/L soil suspension spiked with 10 mg/L of each additive, whereas 1-20 mg/L concentration range was used in isotherm experiments and analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography. DEHP demonstrated the highest retention, 331 and 615.16 mg/kg in OM and OMR soils respectively, at pH 6.6. However, BPA and BP showed highest retentions of 132 and 128 mg/kg, respectively around pH 4.3 in pristine soil. DEHP interaction with soil OM indicated weak physical bonding whereas chemisorption to OMR soil. In the case of BPA, physisorption governed its interaction with both soil organic matter and mineral fraction. Nevertheless, BP demonstrated chemical interactions with OM and minerals. Desorption of DEHP was close to 100% however, BPA and BP were <15%. Overall, DEHP and BPA could be easily released into soil water and possibly be available for plant uptake while, BP is immobilized in soil.

Abstract
Aminopropyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diphosphonium tetrachloroferrate immobilized on halloysite nanotubes [(APTDP)(FeCl4)2@HNT] was prepared and fully characterized using different techniques such as FT-IR, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), SEM/EDX, elemental mapping, TEM, ICP-OES, and elemental analysis (EA). This nanocatalyst was found to be highly effective for synthesis of various benzothiazole derivatives in excellent yields under solvent-free conditions. Furthermore, bis- and tris-benzothiazoles were smoothly synthesized from dinitrile and trinitrile in the presence of this catalytic system. High yields and purity, easy work up procedure, high catalytic activity (high TON and TOF) and easy recovery and reusability of the catalyst make this method a useful and important addition to the present methodologies for preparation of these vital heterocyclic compounds.

Study of the Efficiency of a Polycation Using the Diafiltration Technique in the Removal of the Antibiotic Oxytetracycline Used in Aquaculture. MEMBRANES 2023; 13:828. [PMID: 37888000 PMCID: PMC10608924 DOI: 10.3390/membranes13100828] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023]
Abstract
The presence of antibiotics in aquatic systems in recent years has become a global environmental and public health concern due to the appearance of strains resistant to these antibiotics. Oxytetracycline (OXT) is a high-impact antibiotic used for both human and veterinary consumption, and it is the second most used antibiotic in aquaculture in Chile. Based on the above, this problem is addressed using a linear polymer whose structure is composed of aromatic rings and quaternary ammonium groups, which will help enhance the removal capacity of this antibiotic. To obtain the polycation, a radical polymerization synthesis was carried out using (4-vinylbenzyl)-trimethylammonium chloride as the monomer. The polycation was characterized via Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). The removal studies were conducted under different experimental conditions such as pH levels (3.0, 5.0, 7.0, 8.0, and 11.0), ionic strength (0.0-0.50 mg L-1 of NaCl), polymer dose (0.25-25.5 mg), variation of the antibiotic concentration (1-100 mg L-1), and evaluation of the maximum retention capacity, as well as load and discharge studies. The antibiotic retention removal was higher than 80.0%. The antibiotic removal performance is greatly affected by the effect of pH, ionic strength, molar ratio, and/or OXT concentration, as these parameters directly affect the electrostatic interactions between the polymer and the antibiotics. The diafiltration technique was shown to be highly efficient for the removal of OXT, with maximum removal capacities of 1273, 966, and 778 mg OXT g-1 polycation. In conclusion, it can be said that coupling water-soluble polymers to the diafiltration technique is an excellent low-cost way to address the problem of antibiotics in aquatic systems.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 459:132285.

Abstract
Starvation and antibiotics pollution are two frequent perturbations during breeding wastewater treatment process. Supplying magnetite into anaerobic system has been proved efficient to accelerate microbial aggregates and alleviate the adverse effect caused by process disturbance. Nevertheless, whether these magnetite-based granules are still superior over normal granules after a long-term starvation period remains unknown, the responsiveness of these granules to antibiotics stress is also ambiguous. In current study, we investigated the resilience of magnetite-based anaerobic granular sludge (AnGS) to starvation and oxytetracycline (OTC) stress, by unravelling the variations of reactor performance, sludge properties, ARGs dissemination and microbial community. Compared with the AnGS formed without magnetite, the magnetite assisted AnGS appeared more robust defense to starvation and OTC stress. With magnetite supplement, the average methane yield after starvation recovery, 50 mg/L and 200 mg/L OTC stress was enhanced by 48.95%, 115.87% and 488.41%, respectively, accompanied with less VFAs accumulation, improved tetracycline removal rate (76.3-86.6% vs. 51.0-53.5%) and higher ARGs reduction. Meanwhile, magnetite supplement effectively ameliorated the potential sludge breakage by triggering more large granules formation. Trichococcus was considered an important impetus in maintaining the stability of magnetite-based AnGS process. By inducing more syntrophic methanogenesis partnerships, especially for hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis, magnetite ensured the improved reactor performance and stronger resilience at stress conditions.

Abstract
Spent bleaching earth (SBE), a waste by-product produced from the bleaching step of edible oil by montmorillonite clays (bleaching earth), causes serious public health and environmental problems. Accordingly, in this study, SBE was pyrolyzed to yield mineral carbon materials (SBE@C) and cobalt oxide (Co3O4) was loaded to improve the active site of those materials. Due to the carrier function of SBE@C, ultra-fine Co3O4 quantum dots (QDs) (2-6 nm) were homogeneously and robustly immobilized onto SBE@C. The obtained adsorbent exhibited high regeneration performance and an outstanding adsorption capacity (253.36 mg/g). It can be attributed to the surface complexation of cobalt with TC being the dominant process contributing to adsorption behavior. Further, Co3O4 QDs-SBE@C still maintained adequate sorption capacity at a broad range of pH values and in the presence of co-occurring ions. These results suggested the significant application potential of SBE and demonstrated the efficiency of using Co3O4 QDs-SBE@C for wastewater remediation.

Abstract
The pharmaceutical factories of oxytetracycline (OTC) massively produce OTC fermentation residues (OFRs). The high content of residual OTC and antibiotic resistance genes in OFRs must to be considered and controlled at an acceptable level. This study therefore investigated the applicability of Fenton oxidation in OTC degradation and resistant gene inactivation of OFRs. The results revealed that Fe2+ as catalyzer could very rapidly activate H2O2 to produce HO•, leading to instantaneous degradation of OTC. The optimum conditions for OTC removal were 60 mM H2O2 and 140 mg/L Fe2+ under pH 7. After Fenton oxidation treatment, the release of water-soluble polysaccharides, NO3-N, and PO4-P was enhanced, whereas for proteins and NH3-N were reduced. Three soluble fluorescence components (humic, tryptophan-like, and humic acid-like substances) were identified through fluorescence spectra with parallel factor analysis, and their reduction exceeded 50% after Fenton oxidation. There were twelve intermediates and three degradation pathways of OTC in OFRs during Fenton process. According to toxicity prediction, the comprehensive toxicity of OTC in OFRs was alleviated via Fenton oxidation treatment. In addition, Fenton oxidation showed the ability to reduce antibiotic resistance genes and mobile genetic elements, and even tetO, tetG, intI1, and intI2 were eliminated completely. These results suggested that Fenton oxidation treatment could be an efficient strategy for removing OTC and resistance genes in OFRs.

Abstract
Tetracycline (TCC) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) are two of the most consumed antibiotics for human therapies and bacterial infection treatments in aquafarming fields, but their accumulative residues can result in negative effects on water and aquatic microorganisms. Removal techniques are therefore required to purify water before use. Herein, we concentrate on adsorptive removal of TCC and SDZ using cobalt@carbon nanotubes (Co@CNTs) derived from Co-ZIF-67. The presence of CNTs on the edge of nanocomposites was observed. Taguchi orthogonal array was designed with four variables including initial concentration (5-20 mg L-1), dosage (0.05-0.2 g L-1), time (60-240 min), and pH (2-10). Concentration and pH were found to be main contributors to adsorption of tetracycline and sulfadiazine, respectively. The optimum condition was found at concentration 5 mg L-1, dosage 0.2 g L-1, contact time 240 min, and pH 7 for both TCC and SDZ removals. Confirmation tests showed that Co@CNTs-700 removed 99.6% of TCC and 97.3% of SDZ with small errors (3-5.5%). Moreover, the kinetic and isotherm were studied, which kinetic and isotherm data were best fitted with pseudo second-order model and Langmuir. Maximum adsorption capacity values for TCC and SDZ were determined at 118.4-174.1 mg g-1 for 180 min. We also proposed the main role of interactions such as hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and electrostatic attraction in the adsorption of antibiotics. With high adsorption performance, Co@CNTs-700 is expected to remove antibiotics efficiently from wastewater.

Abstract
The application of amorphous ferrihydrite (Fh) for Cd(II) removal is restricted by its unstable and easily transformable nature. Although doping with silicates stabilized ferrihydrite, its product siliceous ferrihydrite (SiFh) again suffered from the disadvantage of spontaneous agglomeration. Herein, ferrihydrite was hybridized with halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) to prepare a novel siliceous ferrihydrite - coated halloysite nanorods (SiFh@HNTs) in alkaline medium, to break through the current barriers. The characterization results showed that SiFh@HNTs could simultaneously overcome the defects of easy phase transformation of ferrihydrite and easy aggregation of SiFh nanoparticles (NPs). Meanwhile, the optimal SiFh@HNT40 with halloysite content of 40 % formed a well-developed mesoporous structure and exhibited the desired surface properties: a high specific surface area of 303.4 m2/g, an isoelectric point as low as pHiep = 4.5, and rich functional Fe - OH groups. The formation mechanism of such excellent sturcture-properties of SiFh@HNT40 were mainly attributed to two factors: the generation of smaller (∼5 nm) SiFh NPs induced by the integration of halloysite-derived SiO44- into ferrihydrite, and the dispersion of SiFh NPs on clay nanotubes. Furthermore, the adsorption capacity of SiFh@HNT40 for Cd(II) was up to 137.8 mg/g at 30 °C and pH 6, which was much higher than that of aggregated ferrihydrite (11.2 mg/g), halloysite (18.8 mg/g) and goethite (49.4 mg/g). The adsorption thermodynamics study revealed the adsorption of Cd(II) on SiFh@HNT40 was clearly chemisorption with a (ΔHads)q of 43.3 kJ/mol. Characterization results of XPS and FTIR confirmed that the rich Fe - OH groups on SiFh@HNT40 was the main adsorption sites, and Cd(II) was specifically adsorbed by inner-sphere surface complexation. In addition, SiFh@HNT40 had application potential in the mixed-metal wastewaters treatment. Cyclic regeneration experiments showed that SiFh@HNT40 had good regeneration performance and could be reused many times.

Abstract
With rapid increase in the human population, a large amount of wastewater is generated every year. The availability of fresh water is decreasing at an alarming rate due to rapid industrialization and agricultural development. Pharmaceutical drugs which are credited for improving standards of life worldwide have emerged as major water contaminants, raising global concern about their potential risk to human health and environment. The presence of pharmaceutical compounds is detected in surface water (sea, river, lakes, etc.), groundwater, effluents from municipal, hospitals, and wastewater treatment plants, and even in drinking water. Efficient removal of pharmaceutical pollutants still remains a challenging task. Many techniques, including photodegradation, photocatalysis, oxidation, reverse osmosis, biodegradation, nanofiltration, adsorption, etc., have been used for the remediation of wastewater. Adsorption of pharmaceutical compounds on nanoadsorbents, as a low-cost and feasible technology, has gained immense popularity for wastewater treatment over the last decade. Adsorption techniques can be integrated with wastewater treatment plants to achieve efficient removal on an industrial level. Herein, we review the literature on the remediation techniques used for the pharmaceutical waste treatment using carbon nanotubes, metal oxides, nanoclay, and new-generation MXenes via adsorption. These materials show excellent adsorptive properties owing to their high surface area, low cost, high porosity, easy functionalization, and high surface reactivity. The adsorption mechanism of the nanoadsorbents and their reusability as a factor of sustainability have also been included in the review. The factors affecting the adsorption, including pH, the concentration of adsorbate, ionic strength, and adsorbate dose, have also been discussed.

Abstract
The wide spread of phenols and their toxicity in the environment pose a severe threat to the existence and sustainability of living organisms. Rapid detection of these pollutants in wastewaters has attracted the attention of researchers from various fields of environmental science and engineering. Discoveries regarding materials and method developments are deemed necessary for the effective detection and remediation of wastewater. Although various advanced materials such as organic and inorganic materials have been developed, secondary pollution due to material leaching has become a major concern. Therefore, a natural-based material is preferable. Clay is one of the potential natural-based sorbents for the detection and remediation of phenols. It has a high porosity and polarity, good mechanical strength, moisture resistance, chemical and thermal stability, and cation exchange capacity, which will benefit the detection and adsorptive removal of phenols. Several attempts have been made to improve the capabilities of natural clay as sorbent. This manuscript will discuss the potential of clays as sorbents for the remediation of phenols. The activation, modification, and application of clays have been discussed. The achievements, challenges, and concluding remarks were provided.

Abstract
Halloysite nanoclay (HNC) was examined as an adsorbent for the individual and simultaneous removal of antibiotic enrofloxacin (ENRO) and methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions, alongside its regeneration via cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) bubbling. Initially, batch kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out, while the effect of several parameters was evaluated. Both ENRO and MB adsorption onto HNC was better described by Langmuir model, with its maximum adsorption capacity being 34.80 and 27.66 mg/g, respectively. A Pseudo-second order model fitted the experimental data satisfactorily, suggesting chemisorption (through electrostatic interactions) as the prevailing adsorption mechanism, whereas adsorption was also controlled by film diffusion. In the binary system, the presence of MB seemed to act antagonistically to the adsorption of ENRO. The saturated adsorbent was regenerated inside a CAP microbubble reactor and its adsorption capacity was re-tested by applying new adsorption cycles. CAP bubbling was able to efficiently regenerate saturated HNC with low energy requirements (16.67 Wh/g-adsorbent) in contrast to Fenton oxidation. Most importantly, the enhanced adsorption capacity of the CAP-regenerated HNC (compared to raw HNC), when applied in new adsorption cycles, indicated its activation during the regeneration process. The present study provides a green, sustainable and highly effective alternative for water remediation where pharmaceutical and dyes co-exist.

Abstract
Antibiotic contamination in water has been an increasing global concern, and how to effectively remove antibiotics (e.g., oxytetracycline [OTC] hydrochloride) from wastewater becomes imperative. In this study, the biochar derived from an invasive plant (Mikania micrantha Kunth) was synthesized with Zn/Fe- layered double hydroxide (LDH) by co-precipitation method (ZnFe-LDH/MBC) to remove OTC from water. ZnFe-LDH/MBC posed the highest OTC removal performance of 426.61 mg/g. ZnFe-LDH/MBC exhibited stability and efficiency in OTC adsorption at different pH levels and under interfering conditions with co-existing ions, as well as outstanding regeneration capabilities during adsorption-desorption cycles. Furthermore, the removal of OTC by ZnFe-LDH/MBC was mediated by several processes including pore filling, hydrogen bonding force, electrostatic interaction, π-π interaction, as well as complexation. Consequently, ZnFe-LDH/MBC has excellent potential for the purification of OTC pollutants that is low-cost, efficient, and environmentally friendly.

Abstract
The integration of metal-organic frameworks with other functional materials has recently emerged as a promising approach for creating innovative materials for environmental remediation. Here, a nano-sized iron/nickel (Fe/Ni) functionalized zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8-Fe/Ni) was fabricated for oxytetracycline (OTC) removal from wastewater. Cyclic voltammetry and amperometric I-t measurements indicated that OTC was degraded by ZIF-8-Fe/Ni. X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD), transmission electron microscopy mapping (TEM-mapping) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicated that Fe/Ni was evenly dispersed throughout ZIF-8 and partially oxidized after reaction with OTC. OTC adsorption isotherms and kinetics best fitted the Langmuir isotherm (R2 > 0.982) and pseudo-second-order model (R2 > 0.997), respectively. Reduction kinetics data followed the pseudo-first-order model (R2 > 0.905), where the apparent activation energy (Ea) was 22.9 kJ mol-1, demonstrating that OTC degradation was mainly via a chemical process. The practical removal efficiency of OTC from real wastewater by ZIF-8-Fe/Ni was 92.6%, where even after application of ZIF-8-Fe/Ni for 5 consecutive removal cycles, a high OTC removal of 74.9% was maintained. Thus ZIF-8-Fe/Ni exhibited both high removal efficiency and good recyclability.

Abstract
Currently, the applications of biochar (BC) in agricultural practices and for environmental remediation purposes have demonstrated multifaceted advantages despite a few limitations. Nano-BC offers considerable opportunities especially for the remediation of hazardous contaminants as well as the improvement of crop productivity. Positive outcomes of nano-BC on soil physico-chemical and biological characteristics have indicated its suitability for agricultural applications. Nano-BC may effectively regulate the mobilization and sorption of important micro- and macro-nutrients, along with the hazardous contaminants including potentially toxic metals, pesticides, etc. Additionally, the sorption characteristics of nano-BC depends substantially on feedstock materials and pyrolysis temperatures. Nevertheless, the conducted investigations regarding nano-BC are in infant stages, requiring extensive field investigations. The nano-enhanced properties of BC on one hand dramatically improve its effectiveness and sustainability, on the other hand, there may be associated with toxicity development in diverse aquatic and/or terrestrial environments. Therefore, risk assessment on soil organisms and its indirect impact on human health is another area of concern linked with the field application of nano-BC. The present review delineates the potentiality of nano-BC as an emerging sorbent for sustainable agriculture and environmental applications.

Abstract
In this study, sycamore flocs (SF), which caused environmental and health problems, were utilized to prepare biochar. SFB2-900 obtained under the conditions of activation agent K2CO3, pyrolysis temperature 900℃ and m(K2CO3):m(BC) 2 had the strongest adsorption capacity (730 mg/g) for oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OTC-HCl). The pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir model described the adsorption kinetics and isotherms best. SFB2-900 exhibited high OTC-HCl adsorption capacity in both higher ionic strength and wide pH range. The theoretical simulation indicated that the closest interaction distance between OTC-HCl and SFB2-900 was 2.44 Å via π-π stacking configuration. Pore filling, π-π electron donor acceptor (EDA) interaction, H-bonding and electrostatic interactions were also involved in the process of OTC-HCl removal. SFB2-900 showed great removal efficiency for OTC-HCl in different water matrices and good regeneration ability. This study solved the problems caused by SF, realized waste biomass recycling, and achieved preparing high-efficient adsorbent for antibiotic.

Abstract
Kaolinite and methoxy-modified kaolinite were used as novel adsorbents for oxytetracycline (OTC) removal and recovery from aqueous media. Batch adsorption experiments were performed to study the effect of pH, ionic strengths, initial concentration, and contact time on OTC adsorption. The adsorbents were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) before and after adsorption. Adsorption of OTC reached its maximum when solution pH increased up to 6 for 0.001 M ionic strength, above which adsorption decreased further when solution pH increased. Freundlich and Langmuir's models best fit the equilibrium data with a strong dependency on OTC adsorption capacity giving its maximum at 36 mg g-1. Binding is postulated for OTC adsorption on pristine kaolinite as a special case of Hill model with independent binding interaction of OTC adsorption onto the clay that affects the adjacent sites on the pristine kaolinite, in contrast with the adsorption of OTC on methoxy-modified kaolinite. Nitrogen peaks of the XPS spectra indicated changes in the oxidation states of C-N bonds in the N1s peaks by forming tertiary amide C-N and methoxy O-CH3 bonds which corroborated with the results from FTIR spectra. Removal efficiencies and spectroscopic results indicate that performance on methoxy-modified kaolinite is a promising modification on the clay for recovering antibiotics from wastewater.

Abstract
Halloysite (HS) nanoclay was used for the environmental treatment of desalination brine water discharge via the adsorptive removal of selected heavy metals ions; zinc, iron, nickel, and copper, as well as salinity. Different techniques were used for the characterization of the HS nanoclay and it was found that HS nanoclay exists as transparent hollow nanotubes with high surface area. The study showed that most of the heavy metal ions could be removed successfully using the HS nanoclay in a few minutes, at normal conditions. The adsorptive removal of zinc, iron, nickel, and copper, as well as salinity on HS nanoclay was explored kinetically. It was concluded that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model was able to describe the remediation process. In addition, it was found that most of the heavy metals and salinity were removed from the desalination plant outfall brine discharge and the final concentrations were lower than those in the control and standard samples.

This catalyst was found to be highly efficient for the convenient synthesis of naphthopyranopyrimidine derivatives through a one-pot three-component reaction of β-naphthol, aldehydes and N,N-dimethylbarbituric acid in excellent yields under solvent-free conditions. Furthermore, the catalyst could be recovered and reused five times without any notable loss of its activity. A novel method for synthesis of naphthopyranopyrimidines, using [(PATDBP)(HSO4)2@HNT] as a green and reusable catalyst is reported.![]()

Abstract
Membrane separation technology has been widely utilised to obtain clean permeate and concentrated nutrients from biogas digested slurry. However, some antibiotics are frequently found in digested slurry. Antibiotic removal during the steps, including paper filtration (PF), hollow-fibre membrane ultrafiltration (HF), nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO), of combined membrane separation processing (CMP) remain poorly understood. Experiments were performed on a pilot-scale CMP plant to investigate antibiotic transport and rejection efficiencies in CMP products and analyse the antibiotic removal performances of additional treatments. Results showed average relative antibiotic rejection efficiencies of 50%, 83%, 28% and 14% for PF, HF, NF and RO during CMP, respectively. Each CMP product needed additional treatment for antibiotic removal. Antibiotic removal capacity followed the order of fine halloysite > P25 > activated charcoal > coarse halloysite. The average antibiotic removal rates for different CMP products ranged from 73.3% to 99.9%. But antibiotics can only be adsorbed by fine halloysite and must be degraded through other treatments, Thus, P25 has considerable practical importance for the removal of antibiotics, as antibiotics can be degraded during photocatalysis.

Abstract
A comprehensive strategy for manufacturing a novel sorbent based on magnetic molecularly imprinted polymers (MMIPs) is addressed for selective capture of oxytetracycline from seawater. The novel MMIPs were synthesized by nano-Fe3O4 as sacrificial matrix and adsorption properties of the polymers demonstrate rapid adsorption kinetics, high adsorption capacity, and specificity towards oxytetracycline provided by the core-shell composite structure. After screening the critical parameters by multivariate optimization, a magnetic imprinting solid phase extraction method combined with fluorescence spectrophotometry (MMIP-SPE-FL) was constructed for sensitive determination of oxytetracycline in seawater samples. The results show a good linear response dependence on the spiking concentration of 3-100 μg L-1, and a satisfactory limit of detection of 0.7 μg L-1 after the MMIP-SPE preconcentration. Seven seawater samples from Jiaozhou bay were analyzed to give recoveries in the range of 89.75-107.65% with relative standard deviation values of less than 5.44% (n = 3).

Abstract
As a new kind of water pollutant, antibiotics have encouraged researchers to develop new treatment technologies. Electrospun fiber membrane shows excellent benefits in antibiotic removal in water due to its advantages of large specific surface area, high porosity, good connectivity, easy surface modification and new functions. This review introduces the four aspects of electrospinning technology, namely, initial development history, working principle, influencing factors and process types. The preparation technologies of electrospun functional fiber membranes are then summarized. Finally, recent studies about antibiotic removal by electrospun functional fiber membrane are reviewed from three aspects, namely, adsorption, photocatalysis and biodegradation. Future research demand is also recommended.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2020; 267:115683. [PMID: 33254678 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2020.115683] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2020] [Revised: 08/08/2020] [Accepted: 09/15/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Macro (BC), colloidal (CBC) and nanobiochar (NBC) were examined for the particle size effect for adsorptive removal of oxytetracycline (OTC) and co-occurring nutrients, which are present in synthetic hydrolyzed human urine. The surface morphologies and functionality of biochars were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) specific surface area and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) Spectroscopy. Experiments for the removal of OTC were performed at the natural pH (pH 9.0) of hydrolyzed human urine using solid-solutions of 3 types of chars (1 g/L) with a contact time of 5 h, at initial OTC concentration of 50 mg/L where isotherm experiments were investigated with OTC concentrations from 25 to 1000 mg/L. The highest maximum adsorption capacity of 136.7 mg/g was reported for CBC, while BC reported slightly low value (129.34 mg/g). Interestingly, NBC demonstrated a two-step adsorption process with two adsorption capacities (16.9 and 113.2 mg/g). Colloidal biochar depicted the highest adsorption for NH4+, PO43-, and SO42- nutrients. All 3 types of chars showed strong retention with a poor desorption (6% in average) of OTC in synthetic hydrolyzed urine medium. CBC and NBC demonstrated both physisorption and chemisorption, whereas the OTC removal by BC was solely via physisorption. Nevertheless, CBC biochar demonstrated the best performance in adsorptive removal of OTC and nutrients in hydrolyzed human urine and its capability towards wastewater treatment. As the removal of nutrients were low, the treated urine can possibly be used as a safe fertilizer.

Abstract
In recent years, biochar composites have received considerable attention for environmental applications. This paper reviews the current state of research on Layered Double Hydroxides (LDHs) tailored biochar composites in terms of their synthesis methods, characteristics, and their use as adsorbents for the removal of various pollutants from water, highlighting and discussing the key advancement in this area. The adsorption potential of LDHs-biochar composites for different inorganic and organic contaminants, important factors affecting composites' properties and the adsorption process, and the mechanisms involved in adsorption are discussed in this review. Though the adsorption capacities are high for the composites studied, partition coefficient which suggest the performance of composites remain low for most adsorbents. Despite the recent progress in the synthesis of LDHs-biochar composites, further research is needed to improve the performance of composites for different classes of aquatic pollutants, and to test their applicability in pilot-scale with real wastewater under real environmental conditions.

Abstract
The discharge of antibiotics and the potential threat to organisms posed by this have received increasing attention. In this work, flocculent magnesium silicate (FMS) was fabricated by a facile hydrothermal and freeze-drying process, and its adsorption behavior for antibiotic oxytetracycline (OTC) was investigated. FMS presented a sepiolite-type structure and the alkaline solution promoted its hydroxylation. A hierarchical pore structure ranging from micropores to macropores and a high specific surface area of 660 m2/g were exhibited. FMS exhibited a higher adsorption amount in neutral solution than in acidic or alkaline conditions as the physicochemical properties of FMS and OTC were significantly affected by the pH. Adsorption isotherm could be well-described by the Langmuir model, and the calculated saturated adsorption capacity was as high as 265 mg/g. Adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and the adsorption rate-controlling step was intraparticle diffusion. Thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption was a spontaneous physicochemical reaction. After five cycles, around 91% of the adsorption performance was still maintained, demonstrating the excellent reusability of FMS. The sepiolite-type FMS fabricated in this work could be applied to remove OTC from wastewater.
