Abstract
In this work, we report the structural analysis of Cu+ and Cu2+ ions in zeolite as a nanoreactor with antibacterial applications. A simple one-step process was implemented to obtain Cu ions in zeolite A (ZA4) by controlling the temperature in the solutions to guarantee the ions' stability. Samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, showing the characteristic zeolite elements as well as the characteristic bands with slight modifications in the chemical environment of the zeolite nanoreactor attributed to Cu ions by FT-IR spectroscopy. In addition, a shift of the characteristic peaks of ZA4 in X-ray diffraction was observed as well as a decrease in relative peak intensity. On the other hand, the antibacterial activity of Cu ions in the zeolite nanoreactor was evaluated.

Use of a Waste-Derived Linde Type-A Immobilized in Agarose for the Remediation of Water Impacted by Coal Acid Mine Drainage at Pilot Scale. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:ma16114038. [PMID: 37297172 DOI: 10.3390/ma16114038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2023] [Revised: 05/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/27/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
A new adsorbent based on an immobilized waste-derived LTA zeolite in agarose (AG) has proven to be an innovative and efficient alternative for removing metallic contaminants from water impacted by acid mine drainage (AMD) because the immobilization prevents the solubilization of the zeolite in acidic media and eases its separation from the adsorbed solution. A pilot device was developed containing slices of the sorbent material [AG (1.5%)-LTA (8%)] to be used in a treatment system under an upward continuous flow. High removals of Fe2+ (93.45%), Mn2+ (91.62%), and Al3+ (96.56%) were achieved, thus transforming river water heavily contaminated by metallic ions into water suitable for non-potable use for these parameters, according to Brazilian and/or FAO standards. Breakthrough curves were constructed and the corresponding maximum adsorption capacities (mg/g) (Fe2+, 17.42; Mn2+, 1.38; Al3+, 15.20) calculated from them. Thomas mathematical model was well fitted to the experimental data, indicating the participation of an ion-exchange mechanism in the removal of the metallic ions. The pilot-scale process studied, in addition to being highly efficient in removing metal ions at toxic levels in AMD-impacted water, is linked to the sustainability and circular economy concepts, due to the use as an adsorbent of a synthetic zeolite derived from a hazardous aluminum waste.

Abstract
The accurate and rapid detection for the nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor lamivudine (LAM, 3TC) in cellular systems is always a challenge in the clinic application. Here, a sensitive Cu and Ni nano cluster sensor for LAM is generated under hydrothermal conditions.The Cu and Ni atoms are highly dispersed and aggregated in the nanosized opening pore windows of the synthesized LTA zeolite, through the diatomic synergistic contribution of Cu and Ni and the enrichment of zeolitic channel pores. Using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), the detection limit (LOD) of LAM at the potential (- 0.15 V) can reach 0.001 pM and the linear range is 0.002 pM-0.002 μM. Since the nano cluster is separated and restricted by the nanosized windows of the zeolite framework, the sensor provides high stability, good recovery (92.5-109%) and RSD (0.8-3.2%) in the analysis of tap water, RPMI 1640 medium, and rabbit serum. The Cu/Ni/LTA zeolite-modified glassy carbon electrode (Cu/Ni/LTA/GCE) exhibits excellent catalytic performance for LAM with high selectivity over potentially interfering agents. A sensitive Cu and Ni nano cluster sensor for LAM is generated in the hydrothermal condition that the Cu and Ni atoms are highly dispersed and aggregated in the nanosized opening pore windows of the as-synthesized LTA zeolite. Through the diatomic synergistic contribution of Cu and Ni and the enrichment of zeolitic channel pores, the observed limit of detection (LOD) can reach 0.001 pM under differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) method with a wide linear relationship to 0.002 μM.

Abstract
Due to their numerous effects on human health and the natural environment, water contamination with heavy metals and metalloids, caused by their extensive use in various technologies and industrial applications, continues to be a huge ecological issue that needs to be urgently tackled. Additionally, within the circular economy management framework, the recovery and recycling of metals-based waste as high value-added products (VAPs) is of great interest, owing to their high cost and the continuous depletion of their reserves and natural sources. This paper reviews the state-of-the-art technologies developed for the removal and recovery of metal pollutants from wastewater by providing an in-depth understanding of their remediation mechanisms, while analyzing and critically discussing the recent key advances regarding these treatment methods, their practical implementation and integration, as well as evaluating their advantages and remaining limitations. Herein, various treatment techniques are covered, including adsorption, reduction/oxidation, ion exchange, membrane separation technologies, solvents extraction, chemical precipitation/co-precipitation, coagulation-flocculation, flotation, and bioremediation. A particular emphasis is placed on full recovery of the captured metal pollutants in various reusable forms as metal-based VAPs, mainly as solid precipitates, which is a powerful tool that offers substantial enhancement of the remediation processes' sustainability and cost-effectiveness. At the end, we have identified some prospective research directions for future work on this topic, while presenting some recommendations that can promote sustainability and economic feasibility of the existing treatment technologies.

Abstract
Nitroaromatic explosives are major pollutants produced during wars that cause serious environmental and health problems. The removal of a typical nitroaromatic explosive, 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), from aqueous solution, was conducted using a new recyclable magnetic nano-adsorbent (Fe@SiO2NH2). This adsorbent was prepared by grafting amino groups onto Fe@SiO2 particles with a well-defined core-shell structure and demonstrated monodispersity in solution. The removal performance of the nano-adsorbent towards TNT was found to be 2.57 and 4.92 times higher than that towards two analogous explosives, 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT) and 2-nitrotoluene (2-NT), respectively, under neutral conditions. The difference in the removal performance among the three compounds was further compared in terms of the effects of different conditions (pH value, ionic strength, humic acid concentration, adsorbent modification degree and dosage, etc.) and the electrostatic potential distributions of the three compounds. The most significant elevation is owing to modification of amino on Fe@SiO2 which made a 20.7% increase in adsorption efficiency of TNT. The experimental data were well fit by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich adsorption isotherm model, indicating multilayer adsorption on a heterogeneous surface. The experimental results and theoretical considerations show that the interactions between Fe@SiO2NH2 NPs and TNT correspond to dipole-dipole and hydrophobic interactions. These interactions should be considered in the design of an adsorbent. Furthermore, the adaptability to aqueous environment and excellent regeneration capacity of Fe@SiO2NH2 NPs makes these remediation materials promising for applications.

Abstract
Metal pollutant adsorbents are an essential material platform for sustainable environmental remediation, but the adsorbents are typically disposable after sorption, which secondarily contaminates the environment. We report on recyclable Cu(II) adsorbent of deprotonated poly-N-phenylglycine nanofibers (d-PPG NFs)-grafted reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheets intercalated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs), which are synthesized via wet chemical process. The adsorption performances of ternary Fe3O4 NPs@rGO-d-PPG NFs and binary Fe3O4 NPs@rGO composites are compared, and the ternary ones exhibit much higher Cu2+-adsorption capacity than binary ones under diverse pH conditions due to both high specific surface area and high cationic affinity of d-PPG NFs that follow the Freundlich adsorption model. Density-functional theory calculation results explain why/how the ternary composites show greater Cu2+ adsorption capability in higher pH environment. The ternary composites present stable, high Cu2+ adsorption capability, irrespective of Co2+ concentration in bimetallic Cu and Co aqueous solution. The Fe3O4 NPs in the ternary composites allow magnet-assisted collection after adsorption batches, whose collection yield is ∼95 % without adsorption capacity degradation in repeated adsorbent reuses over 10 times. This study provides a general, promising pathway to synthesize reusable sorptive materials for water purification/remediation.
