[PMID: 39383908 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.136377] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2024] [Revised: 09/27/2024] [Accepted: 10/05/2024] [Indexed: 10/11/2024]
Abstract
An eco-friendly κ-carrageenan/potato starch bio-hydrogel is designed for the efficient removal of methylene blue (MB) dye from water. The incorporation of potato starch was successfully confirmed through XRD, FT-IR, and SEM analysis, while TGA highlighted the hydrogel's thermal stability. Batch adsorption experiments demonstrated excellent MB removal efficiency, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 116.1 mg/g under optimal conditions (initial dye concentration: 100 mg/L, contact time: 180 min, temperature: 20 °C, adsorbent dosage: 1.6 g/L, and pH: 11). FT-IR analysis indicated that electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding primarily govern the adsorption process. The adsorption followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm model. Thermodynamic studies revealed that the adsorption was exothermic and spontaneous. A key feature of this bio hydrogel is its selective affinity for the cationic dye MB, in a mixture with Acid Orange (AO) and other cationic dyes (Rhodamine B (Rh B) and crystal violet (CV)). The adsorbent also demonstrated impressive reusability, maintaining 93 % of its efficiency after five cycles, highlighting its potential for sustainable and cost-effective water treatment.

Abstract
An improvement to Hummers' method involving a cascade-design graphite oxidation reaction is reported to optimize safety and efficiency in the production of graphite oxide (GrO) and graphene oxide (GO). Chemical reduction using highly alkaline ammonia solution is a novel approach to synthesizing reduced graphene oxide (RGO). In this original research, we revisit the oxidation and reduction reactions, providing significant findings regarding the synthetic pathway to obtain a bioinspired water-intercalated hydrogel of RGO nanosheets. Influential factors in the graphite oxidation reaction, typically the exothermic reaction temperature and hydrogen peroxide effect, are described. Furthermore, the chemical reaction of GO reduction using highly alkaline ammonia solution (pH 14) was investigated to produce hydrated RGO nanosheets assembled in a hydrogel structure (97% water). Three-dimensional assembly and water intercalation are key to preserve the non-stacking state of RGO nanosheets. Therefore, ultrasound transmission to aqueous channels in the macroscopic RGO hydrogel vibrated and dispersed the RGO nanosheets in water. Analytical results revealed the single-layer nanostructures, functional groups, optical band gaps, optimized C/O ratios, particle sizes and zeta potentials of GO and RGO nanosheets. The reversible self-assembly of RGO hydrogels is essential for many applications, such as RGO coatings and polymer/RGO nanocomposites. In a water purification application, the RGO hydrogel was dispersed in aqueous solution by simple agitation and showed a high capacity for organic dye adsorption. After the adsorption, the RGO/dye particles were easily removed by filtration through ordinary cellulose paper. The process of adsorption and filtration is effective and inexpensive for practical environmental remediation. In summary, a bioinspired structure of RGO hydrogel is conceptualized for prospective nanotechnology.

[PMID: 38975120 PMCID: PMC11226824 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e32792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024] Open
Abstract
This study presents a sustainable approach to activated carbon production from olive stones in comparison to commercial ones, using various activating agents such as H3PO4, KOH, and ZnCl2, for enhancing the adsorption properties and versatile adsorption capability to remove a range of pollutants including copper ion, methylene blue, and 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid from aqueous solutions. The performances of activated carbons across varying conditions such as pollutant concentrations, temperatures, pH levels, and adsorbent amounts were tested. Increased initial pollutant concentrations correlated with higher adsorption capacities. Maximum adsorption capacities were achieved at pH levels of 5, 10, and 2 for Cu, MB, and 2,4-D, respectively. For KOSAC, Cu removal rose from 27 % to 52 %, for ZOSAC, MB removal increased from 39 % to 65 %, and for ZOSAC, 2,4-D removal surged from 33 % to 99 % at varying adsorbent amounts. Model validation was carried out utilizing the kinetic models (PFO, PSO) and isotherm models (Langmuir, Redlich-Peterson). The PFO kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model proved more suitability for Cu adsorption, whereas PFO and PSO kinetic models, along with Redlich-Peterson isotherm models, were more prominent for MB and 2,4-D adsorption. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that the adsorption of Cu and 2,4-D was exothermic, while MB adsorption was endothermic. By optimization of experimental conditions, the maximum adsorption capacities were attained at 30.34 °C and 297.65 mg L-1 for KOSAC-Cu, 48.62 °C and 269.37 mg L-1 for ZOSAC-MB, and 30.31 °C and 299.02 mg L-1 for ZOSAC-2,4-D sorption. This research highlights ZOSAC's potential as a cost-effective, eco-friendly solution for water treatment, contributing to environmental sustainability and economical feasibility.

Abstract
Persistent water contaminants include a variety of substances that evade natural cleaning processes posing severe risks to ecosystems. Their adsorptive elimination is a key approach to safer attenuation. Herein we present the design and development of Prussian blue incorporated polypyrrole (PPY/PB) hybrid nanocomposite as a high-performance adsorbent for the elimination of malachite green (M.G.), isoniazid (INH) and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) water contaminants. The nanocomposite synthesis was favored by strong dopant-polymer interactions, leading to a PPY/PB material with enhanced electro-active surface area compared to pristine PPY. The structure-activity response of the nanocomposite for the adsorption of target contaminants was unveiled by evaluating its maximum adsorption capacities under environmentally viable conditions. In-depth analysis and optimization of adsorption influencing factors (pH, temperature, and adsorbent dose) were performed. Using equilibrium studies, kinetic model fitting, aided with FTIR analysis, a multi-step mechanism for the adsorption of target contaminants on the nanocomposite was proposed. Furthermore, the PPY/PB nanocomposite also acts as a catalyst, enabling contaminant elimination following a synergistic scheme that was demonstrated using 4-NP contaminant. The synergetic adsorption and catalytic degradation of 4-NP using PPY/PB as adsorbent and catalyst was demonstrated in the presence of NaBH4 as a reducing agent in absence of light. In summary, this work highlights the targeted design of adsorbent, its optimization for adsorptive avidity, and the synergistic role of adsorption trapping in the catalytic degradation of persistent contaminants.

ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:25251-25264.

Abstract
Sugar cane bagasse (SB) was modified with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), followed by impregnation with zinc oxide (ZnO) to create a synergistic adsorption and photocatalytic system for methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB) removal. The presence of CTAB and ZnO was confirmed by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and energy dispersive X-ray (for Zn and O). Modification of SB with CTAB (CSB) generated more positive sites on the surface of SB, which enhanced MO removal compared with that of pristine SB. ZnO impregnation induces a decrease in MO removal due to the ZnO presence on the CSB surface, which might reduce the positive sites on the CSB. In addition, the positive sites on CSB can interact with Zn2+ and O2- to form ZnO and lead to a decrease in MO removal. In contrast, the presence of ZnO facilitated good removal of MB compared to CSB, indicating that the photocatalytic process plays a greater role in removing MB. However, the addition of H2O2 can improve MO and MB removal under irradiation due to the formation of external •OH. The photocatalytic performance of MO and MB was also observed to be favored under acidic and alkaline conditions, respectively.

Functionalization of porous silica with graphene oxide and polyethyleneimine, containing zinc copper ferrite nanoparticles for water treatment and antibacterial application.

Abstract
The article discusses the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye, a common cationic dye used in the textile industry, from aqueous solutions through an adsorption process. The use of porous components as adsorbents are shown to facilitate complete separation after the process is completed. The substrate was synthesized by connecting zinc copper ferrite (ZnCuFe2O4), polyethyleneimine (PEI), and Graphene Oxide (GO) sheets to MCM-48, which is a mesoporous material. The surface of MCM-48 was modified using CPTMS, which created an O-Si-Cl bridge, thereby improving the adsorption rate. The substrate was shown to have suitable sites for electrostatic interactions and creating hydrogen bonds with MB. The adsorption process from the Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.9224) and the pseudo-second-order diagram (R2 = 0.9927) demonstrates the adsorption of several layers of dye on the heterogeneous surface of the substrate. The synthesized substrate was also shown to have good bactericidal activity against E. coli and S. aureus bacterial strain. Furthermore, the substrate maintained its initial ability to adsorb MB dye for four consecutive cycles. The research resulted that ZnCuFe2O4@MCM-48/PEI-GO substrate has the potential for efficient and economical removal of MB dye from aqueous solutions (R = 88.82%) (qmax = 294.1176 mg. g-1), making it a promising solution for the disposal of harmful industrial waste.

Abstract
Dye-contaminated water and waste plastic both pose enormous threats to human health and the ecological environment, and simultaneously solving these two issues in a sustainable and resource-saving way is highly important. In this work, a sodium alginate-polyethylene terephthalate-sodium alginate (SA@PET) composite adsorbent for efficient dye removal is fabricated using wasted PET bottle and marine plant-based SA via simple and energy-efficient nonsolvent-induced phase separation (NIPS) method. Benefiting from its porous structure and the abundant binding sites, SA@PET shows an excellent methylene blue (MB) adsorption capacity of 1081 mg g-1. The Redlich-Peterson model more accurately describes the adsorption behavior, suggesting multiple adsorption mechanisms. In addition to the electrostatic attractions of SA to MB, polar interactions between the PET matrix and MB are also identified as adsorption mechanisms. It is worth mentioning that SA@PET could be recycled 7 times without a serious decrease in performance, and the trifluoroacetic acid-dichloromethane solvent involved in the NIPS process has the possibility of reuse and stepwise recovery. Finally, the discarded adsorbent could be completely degraded under mild conditions. This work provides not only a composite adsorbent with excellent cationic dye removal performance for wastewater treatment, but also an upcycling strategy for waste PET.

Abstract
Herein, a novel biosorbent was successfully fabricated through a two-step process employing Pinus massoniana pollen as raw material. The efficacy of this biosorbent in eliminating methylene blue (MB), a typical organic cationic dye, from highly concentrated industrial wastewater was investigated. The results demonstrated that by adjusting the wettability of pollen microcarriers, it is possible to significantly increase their adsorption capacity for cationic dyes, resulting in a remarkable 25-fold improvement. The modified Pinus massoniana pollen microcarriers (MPPMC) exhibited an optimal adsorption capacity (585 mg/g) under specific conditions and a rapid equilibrium (97.6% in 5 min, uptake 487.8 mg/g) even at room temperature, showing excellent performance in removing MB efficiently and quickly. It is worth noting that the modified microcarriers could be regenerated via a simple pH-controlled adsorption-desorption cycle, maintaining their superior efficiency (> 99%) even after undergoing five cycles, indicating their excellent reproducibility. The MB adsorption process on MPPMC obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and followed the Langmuir model. Through the introduced modifications, the substantial deprotonation of carboxyl groups notably augmented electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions between MPPMC and MB. Overall, this study offers a sustainable, eco-friendly biological adsorbent, and the MPPMC exhibit the considerable potential for efficient and rapid removal of organic cationic dyes in wastewater.

Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate the preparation of laser-cum KOH-activated porous carbon with tunable ionic states, unique surface chemistry, and physical texture from renewable and environmentally friendly precursors (waste cardboard boxes). The adsorption performance of the engineered adsorbents is examined on the adsorption of methyl blue (MB, anionic) and methylene blue (MeB, cationic). The adsorption mechanism was determined using detailed batch adsorption, and the MB was adsorbed via the formation of ternary complexes, whereas the MeB was adsorbed through cation-π interaction. Furthermore, the non-activated laser-induced carbon (LIC100) and the KOH-activated carbon (KAC(L)) exhibit superior dye adsorption capacities of 9610 (MB) and 1882 mg g-1 (MeB), respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest ever reported at dye removal in the field of adsorptive dye removal. Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order are fitted well for both MB and MeB adsorption. Lastly, the carbons generated through this modern technique can be remodeled into a more secure device to obtain clean and microorganism-free water. This study showed the potential of laser-induced carbonization of KOH-activated substrate and provided unique insights into future development for universal dye adsorption and other possible applications.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 237:116940. [PMID: 37619624 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2023.116940] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Revised: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
This study designed a composite material with internal synergistic effects among multiple components to achieve highly selective adsorption of Cu (II). Through controlled synthesis, the Fe3O4/MnO2(3 1 0)/ZIF-67 composite was successfully fabricated, leading to significant improvement in adsorption selectivity, capacity, and adsorption rate. The experimental results showed that the composite is of outstanding selectivity in the adsorption of Cu (II), with a partition coefficient K of Cu (II) that was 2.2-5.3 times higher than that of other coexisting ions. Moreover, the composite exhibited a remarkable adsorption capacity of 1261.0 mg g-1 and a fast adsorption rate of 840.7 mg g-1 h-1 at 298 K. Additionally, its magnetic property facilitated easy separation from wastewater, thereby enhancing its potential for commercial applications. The synergetic effect mechanism was analyzed through characterizations and DFT calculations. Furthermore, the recyclability of the composite was investigated, which showed that after seven cycles, the adsorption efficiency remained at 85% of its initial efficiency. It can be concluded that Fe3O4/MnO2(3 1 0)/ZIF-67 has potential to address challenges posed by heavy metal pollution in copperplating effluents.

ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT 2023; 195:1266.

Abstract
Kinetic studies play an instrumental role in determining the most appropriate reaction rate model for industrial-scale applications. This study focuses on the kinetics of methylene blue (MB) adsorption from aqueous solutions by biochar derived from jackfruit peel. Various kinetic models, including pseudo-first-order (PFO), pseudo-second-order (PSO), intra-diffusion, and Elovich models, were applied to study MB adsorption kinetics of jackfruit peel biochar. The experiments were performed with two initial concentrations of MB (24.23 mg/L and 41.42 mg/L) over a span of 240 min. Our findings emphasized that the Elovich model provided the best fit of the experimental data for MB adsorption. When compared to other materials, biochar from jackfruit peel emerges as an eco-friendly adsorbent for dye decolorization, with potential applications in the treatment of environmental pollution.

Abstract
Converting more CO2 absorbed by plant photosynthesis into biomass-activated carbon effectively reduces carbon emissions. In this study, we used a one-step preparation of biomass-activated carbon loaded with MgO nanoparticles to investigate the effect of Mg loading on the catalytic pyrolysis process. The influences of magnesium loading on biochar yield and fixed carbon production were assessed. The addition of 1% Mg weakened the carbonyl C=O, inhibited the dehydroxylation reaction, enhanced the C-H signal strength, and the formation of MgO inhibited the weaker- bound substituent breakage. Additionally, the addition of magnesium altered the morphological features and chemical composition of the biochar material. It also increased the activated carbon mesoporosity by 3.94%, biochar yield by 5.55%, and fixed carbon yield by 12.14%. The addition of 1% Mg increased the adsorption capacity of the activated carbon to potassium dichromate, acid magenta, methylene blue, and tetracycline effluents by 8.71 mg, 37.15 mg, 117.68 mg, and 3.53 mg, respectively. The results showed that MgCl2 played a significant role in promoting the thermal degradation of biomass and improving the solid yield and adsorption performance of activated carbon.

Efficient removal of Tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate by biochar derived from shrimp shell: Adsorption performance and mechanism study. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2023; 254:114728. [PMID: 36889208 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.114728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) has been detected all over the world as a typical refractory organic phosphate, especially in groundwater. This work applied a calcium-rich biochar derived from shrimp shell as a low-cost adsorbent for TCEP removal. Based on the kinetics and isotherm studies, the adsorption of TCEP on biochar was monolayer adsorbed on a uniform surface, with SS1000 (the biochar was prepared at the carbonization temperature of 1000 °C) achieving the maximum adsorption capacity of 264.11 mg·g-1. The prepared biochar demonstrated stable TCEP removal ability throughout a wide pH range, in the presence of co-existing anions, and in diverse water bodies. A rapid removal rate of TCEP was observed during the adsorption process. When the dosage of SS1000 was 0.2 g·L-1, 95% of TCEP could be removed within the first 30 min. The mechanism analysis indicated that the calcium species and basic functional groups on the SS1000 surface were highly involved in the TCEP adsorption process.

Heliyon 2023; 9:e15502.

Abstract
In this study, the adsorptive removal of methylene blue dye, which is commonly used in textile industries, was investigated using the MnO2@reduced graphene oxide (rGO) adsorbent. The sonication-assisted synthesis from rGO nanosheets and MnO2 nanoparticles resulted to the MnO2@rGO nanocomposite with improved physicochemical properties. The characterization results showed the improved surface area, porous structure and adsorption sites from the nitrogen adsorption-desorption studies, improved morphology from the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and the improved crystal structure from X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The improved physicochemical properties on the MnO2@rGO nanocomposite played a significant role in enhancing the dye removal in textile wastewater. The equilibrium experimental data was best described by the Langmuir isotherm model with a maximum adsorption capacity of 156 mg g-1, suggesting a monolayer adsorption. The kinetic data best fitted the pseudo-second order kinetic model, suggesting a chemisorption adsorption process. The thermodynamic data (ΔG°, ΔH° and ΔS°) confirmed the feasibility, randomness and spontaneous nature of the adsorption process. The mechanism of adsorption involved the hydrogen bonding, π-π interactions and electrostatic interactions. The removal of methylene blue using MnO2@rGO nanocomposite in spiked textile wastewater yielded a 98-99% removal. The method demonstrated competitiveness when compared with literature reported results, paving way for further investigations towards industrial scale applications.

Abstract
In this research, magnetic metal-organic framework nanofibers were produced by the electrospinning method. The nanocomposite was functionalized by third generation hyperbranched poly(amidoamine) dendrimer (PAMAM) to improve its dye adsorption efficiency from aqueous media. The characteristics of the synthesized magnetic nanocomposite was determined by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) along with elemental mapping analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Central composite design (CCD) based on response surface methodology (RSM) was performed to optimize the adsorption variables and the values of coefficient of determination (R2) and adjusted R2 were 0.9837 and 0.9490, respectively. The results obtained demonstrated remarkable properties of the synthesized nanofiber as adsorbent for methylene blue from aqueous solutions with the removal efficiency of 95.37% and maximum methylene blue (MB) adsorption capacity of 940.76 mg g-1 under optimized conditions. In addition, it was shown that kinetics and adsorption isotherm of the dye removal process followed Langmuir and pseudo-second-order models, respectively. Thermodynamic study of the dye removal indicated that the process was spontaneous and favorable at higher temperatures. Also, the reusability study shows favorable dye removal efficiency of 80.67% even after 4 cycles. To investigate the performance of the adsorbent for the removal of MB in real samples, a sewage sample from a local hospital was used. The result showed good efficiency of the adsorbent.

Adsorption Performance of Methylene Blue by KOH/FeCl3 Modified Biochar/Alginate Composite Beads Derived from Agricultural Waste. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28062507.

Abstract
In this study, high-performance modified biochar/alginate composite bead (MCB/ALG) adsorbents were prepared from recycled agricultural waste corncobs by a high-temperature pyrolysis and KOH/FeCl3 activation process. The prepared MCB/ALG beads were tested for the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) dye from wastewater. A variety of analytical methods, such as SEM, BET, FTIR and XRD, were used to investigate the structure and properties of the as-prepared adsorbents. The effects of solution pH, time, initial MB concentration and adsorption temperature on the adsorption performance of MCB/ALG beads were discussed in detail. The results showed that the adsorption equilibrium of MB dye was consistent with the Langmuir isothermal model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The maximum adsorption capacity of MCB/ALG−1 could reach 1373.49 mg/g at 303 K. The thermodynamic studies implied endothermic and spontaneous properties of the adsorption system. This high adsorption performance of MCB/ALG was mainly attributed to pore filling, hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions. The regeneration experiments showed that the removal rate of MB could still reach 85% even after five cycles of experiments, indicating that MCB/ALG had good reusability and stability. These results suggested that a win-win strategy of applying agricultural waste to water remediation was feasible.

Abstract
Traditional regeneration of activated carbon is usually carried out by high-temperature oxidation in industrial processes, which reduces the quality and performance of the adsorbent, thereby increasing costs and damaging the environment. In this study, a simple drying process is proposed to enable reuse of spent activated carbon. The feasibility and merits of this method were evaluated in batch and continuous adsorption modes using dyes as adsorbates. The batch adsorption results showed that the activated carbon could be reused seven times after a simple drying process, because it led to full occupancy of the activated carbon pores by adsorbate molecules. The cumulative adsorption capacities of the activated carbon were as high as 1005.3 mg/g for methyl orange (MO) and 954.8 mg/g for methylene blue (MB). Continuous adsorption experiments in a fixed-bed column demonstrated that the activated carbon column could be reused more than three times after simply drying. Moreover, dye molecules adsorbed by the activated carbon were not leached by the stream of dye solution during reuse. This drying method exhibits three main merits for reuse of activated carbon, including (1) remarkably reduced consumption of fresh activated carbon to 51.5% or below, (2) significantly increased recovery of high-value adsorbate from the liquid phase, and (3) potential integration of multiple steps for industrial adsorption processes.

Abstract
Alkaline leachate, dust generation, and foul smell during the stacking process of natural rubber biosludge (NRBS) can pollute surrounding water, soil, and air. In this study, natural rubber chemically activated carbon (NRCAC) has been synthesized for the first time from NRBS by pyrolysis using ZnCl2 at 700 °C for adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) and methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions. Both NRBS and NRCAC were characterized by X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). FTIR and SEM-EDS suggested significant functional and morphological transformations in NRCAC. Experimental investigations of different process parameters, such as pH, concentration, contact time, salt concentration, etc., were conducted to study their influences on adsorption. Adsorption and desorption kinetics followed a pseudo-second-order model, while adsorption equilibrium followed Liu isotherm. Maximum uptake calculated from the Liu model was 81.28 and 211.90 mg/g for Cr(VI) and MB, respectively. Thermodynamic analysis established spontaneous and endothermic adsorption. Up to five adsorption/desorption cycles were conducted using eluents such as 1 M NaOH and water for Cr(VI) and MB, respectively. Electrostatic attraction and ion-exchange favored Cr(VI)/MB adsorption, while hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking were significant in MB uptake. Overall findings suggest that NRBS (a renewable agro-industrial, abundant, and freely available) could be employed to synthesize biochar for adsorptive removal of wastewater containing Cr(VI)/MB.

Abstract
The presence of hazardous dyes in wastewater cause disastrous effects on living organisms and the environment. The conventional technologies for the remediation of dyes from water have several bottlenecks such as high cost and complex operation. This review aims to present a comprehensive outlook of various bio-sorbents that are identified and successfully employed for the removal of dyes from aqueous environments. The effect of physicochemical characteristics of adsorbents such as surface functional groups, pore size distribution and surface areas are critically evaluated. The adsorption potential at different experimental conditions of diverse bio-sorbents has been also explored and the influence of certain key parameters like solution pH, temperature, concentration of dyes, dosage of bio-sorbent and agitation speed is carefully evaluated. The mechanism of dyes adsorption, regeneration potential of the employed bio-sorbents and their comparison with other commercial adsorbents are discussed. The cost comparison of different adsorbents and key technological challenges are highlighted followed by the recommendations for future research.

Abstract
With the rapid development of the textile industry, a large amount of dyeing wastewater discharge has caused great harm to the ecological environment. In this work, a dual-network, composite hydrogel adsorbent with excellent mechanical properties, good reusability, and large adsorption capacity was prepared by introducing chitosan cross-linked polyvinylamine into the N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide cross-linked polyacrylic acid network. The dual cross-linking network gave the hydrogel excellent mechanical properties with maximum tensile stress and strain up to 1.9 MPa and 920 %. The adsorption capacity of methylene blue on hydrogel was up to 596.14 mg/g. In addition, the prepared hydrogel exhibited good reusability, and their adsorption efficiency remained above 85 % in five consecutive cycles. The adsorption behavior was well fitted by Pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir equation, indicating that the hydrogel was chemisorbed to the dye as a monolayer. The adsorption mechanism analysis showed that the electrostatic interactions and hydrogen bonding between the functional groups of the hydrogels and methylene blue molecules contributed to the good adsorption capacity. Overall, the synthesized composite hydrogels could be used as an efficient adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue dye, particularly from textile industry wastewater.

Abstract
Hierarchically porous activated Starbons® derived from starch are found to make excellent adsorbents for methylene blue, even in the presence of other dyes and inorganic salts, highlighting their potential to be used in water purification. The optimal material (S950C90) has a methylene blue adsorption capacity (891 mg g-1) almost nine times higher than that of unactivated S800 and four times higher than that of commercial activated carbon at 298 K. The adsorption of methylene blue onto optimal materials (S950C90 and S800K4) reaches equilibrium within 5 min. Adsorption data for all the adsorbents show a good fit to the Freundlich isotherm which allows the Gibbs free energies of adsorption to be calculated. The adsorption capacities increase as the pH of the methylene blue solution increases, allowing the dye to be desorbed by treatment with acidic ethanol and the Starbon® materials reused. Porosimetry and SEM-EDX imaging indicate that methylene blue adsorbs throughout the surface and completely fills all the micropores in the Starbon® adsorbent. The methylene blue adsorption capacities show excellent correlations with both the BET surface areas and the micropore volumes of the materials.

Abstract
The effects of initial total phosphorus (TP) concentration, current density, conductivity and initial pH value on the removal rate of TP and energy consumption, as well as the behaviour and mechanism of phosphorus removal, were investigated by sinusoidal alternating current coagulation (SACC). The flocs produced by SACC were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR and X-ray photo electron spectroscopy. The thermodynamic and kinetic behaviours of phosphorus removal by iron sol adsorption were also studied in detail. In a self-made SACC reactor equipped with five sets of parallel iron electrodes spacing 10 mm, the removal rate of TP reached 90.9% for a pH 7.0 wastewater with 5 mg dm-3 TP (κ = 800 μS cm-1) after being treated for 60 min by applying 2.12 mA cm-2 sinusoidal alternating current. Compared with direct current coagulation (DCC), SACC exhibits a higher removal efficiency of phosphorus due to the stronger adsorption of the produced flocs. It was found that the adsorption in the SACC process follows pseudo-second-order kinetic with the involvement of the intra-particle model. The adsorption of iron sol to phosphorus was an endothermic and spontaneous process, and its adsorption behaviour can be characterized with Langmuir and Redlich-Peterson isothermal adsorption models. SACC may be employed for the treatment of more complex wastewater combined with biological and/or electrochemical techniques.

Abstract
This study evaluated the synthesis of novel binary functionaladsorbent based on sporopollenin, magnetic nanoparticles, and polyaniline to produce MSP-PANI. The MSP-PANI was applied to enhance uptake of lead ions (Pb2+) from wastewater samples. The functionalities, surface morphology, magnetic properties, and elemental composition of the newly synthesized nanocomposite were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), vibration sample magnetometer (VSM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), respectively. The experimental condition for the adsorption process was MSP/PANI ratio 1:1, pH ∼6, adsorbent dosage 40 mg, and contact time 90 min at room temperature. Under the proposed condition, lead ions removal were obtained as 83%, 88% and 95% for MSPE, PANI, and MSP/PANI, respectively. Based on the experimental and predicted data, the adsorption was corresponded to the psudo-second-order (R2 = 0.999) kinetics model, and the adsorption equilibrium corresponded to the Langmuir model (R2 = 0.996). Langmuir isotherm showed the maximum adsorption capacity of MSP-PANI for lead ions was 163 mg/g and followed the monolayer pattern. Hence, thermodynamic model under Van't Hoff equation suggested that the adsorption mechanism was physio-sorption with endothermic nature. Therefore, this research can help the researchers to use magnetic nanoparticles for lead removal in highly polluted areas.

Abstract
Waste paper (WP) is rich in cellulose, which can be activated to produce porous carbon, bio-oil, and combustible gases. During chemical activation of WP, the use of varied chemical agents not only generates activated carbon of distinct pore structure but also bio-oil/gases of different property. In this study, the activation of WP with varied chemical agents was conducted. The distinct characteristics of activated carbon and also bio-oil/gases were correlated with the different nature of the used chemical agents. The results indicated that H3PO4 and ZnCl2 catalyzed polymerization reactions for producing more bio-oil while less gases owing to their Brønsted and Lewis acidic sites. K2C2O4 showed high activity for cracking/gasification reactions, forming bio-oil with higher abundance of organics with smaller π-conjugated structures. In addition, ZnCl2 could create a very coarse porous structure with abundant macropores via destroying fiber structure in WP and promoting the growth of graphitic crystals. In comparison, K2C2O4 hindered the aromatization and facilitated the formation of amorphous activated carbon. K2C2O4 and ZnCl2 were much more effective than H3PO4 for creating micropores and mesopores from WP, the derived activated carbon showed superior performances as the electrode of supercapacitor and adsorbent for adsorption of oxytetracycline from aqueous solution. In addition, K2C2O4 as activating agent showed lower environmental impact than ZnCl2 in terms of energy consumption, environmental pollution and the greenhouse effect.

Abstract
In this work, an innovative nano-carbon material (N-CM) adsorbent was reported for exploring its adsorption behaviors toward cationic methylene blue (MB) and anionic reactive blue 19 (RB19) pollutants. The proposed N-CM was synthesized by a one-step solvothermal treatment of citric acid and zinc gluconate small precursors. N-CM consists of nanosheets that have an advantageous specific surface area, large sp2/sp3 hybridized domains, and abundant nitrogen/oxygen-containing surface functional groups. The synergistic effects of these features are conducive to the MB and RB19 adsorption. Different from anionic RB19 adsorption (79.54 mg/g) by the cooperative π-π stacking and hydrogen bonding, cationic MB adsorbed onto N-CM mainly by the electrostatic attraction at the natural pH solution (> pHpzc), with an adsorption capacity up to 118.98 mg/g. Interestingly, both MB and RB19 adsorption conformed to the pseudo-second order kinetic (R2 ≥ 0.995) and Langmuir isothermal (R2 ≥ 0.990) models, accompanied by similar maximum monolayer adsorption capacities of 120.77 and 116.01 mg/g, respectively. Their adsorption processes exhibited spontaneously endothermic characteristics. Moreover, N-CM showed superior selective capability toward MB in different mixed dye systems, with high removal efficiencies of 73−89%. These results demonstrate that the high-performance carbon adsorbent prepared from small precursors via low-temperature carbonization shows great potentials in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Treatment of coal-to-gas brine (CGB) is a great challenge since it contains elevated inorganic salts and a high level of toxic and bio-accumulative organics. In this study, CGB treatment was conducted by adsorptionregeneration and electrochemically driven UV/chlorine (E-UV/Cl2) processes. LS-109D macroporous resin was optimal adsorbent primarily due to unique pore structure, which preferably adsorbed the aromatic fluorescent components with quenching Cl∙ effect and low molecular weight acids recalcitrant to ∙OH. The E-UV/Cl2 process outperformed the UV photolysis process and electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs) for oxidation of organic compounds due to its full utilization of Cl- in CGB to produce highly active oxidation agents. Thanks to the synergy between process units in organic matter removal, dissolved organic carbon (DOC) of CGB was reduced from 163.41 mg/L to 26.58 mg/L by the multistage system. Furthermore, the CGB with characteristics of high fluorescence and molecular weight (MW) distribution was converted to effluent with low fluorescence and MW distribution. The exhausted LS-109D was regenerated by ultrasound-assisted hot water elution at 363 K. After pretreated by ozonation, the eluate can be easily treated by biological process. The study suggests that the multistage system can provide an effective treatment option for removing organics from CGB.

Abstract
Carbon-based adsorbents show high adsorption capacity towards caffeine due to their porosity and surface functionality. However, the main limiting factor for high performance has not been addressed; furthermore, the adsorption interaction with different active sites needs to be explored. In this study, we synthesized a hierarchical porous nitrogen-doped carbon with unique surface functionality by single-step calcination of coffee waste with KOH under N2. The porous structure, nitrogen content, and types are optimized by varying calcination temperature and KOH concentration. The result of the adsorption experiments shows that both the nitrogen type and the pore size distribution are the limiting factors to adsorption. In addition, the effect of acidic and basic functional groups is studied in detail. The adsorption of caffeine on CW-C is dominantly governed by EDA interaction between the resonance structure of pyridonic-N and the electron-withdrawing group of the caffeine, and the dispersive force caused by the oxidized-N and delocalized π electron of caffeine. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the surface of CW-C is not suitable for the formation of electrostatic and non-electrostatic interaction with caffeine. The maximum adsorption capacity of caffeine at 25 °C is 274.2 mg/g. Moreover, we demonstrate that the unique physio-chemical properties of CW-C are capable of adsorbing other emerging contaminants such as diclofenac, where maximum adsorption capacity of 242.3 mg/g diclofenac is recorded.

Abstract
The iron metal-organic framework composite with chitosan (CS/MOF-235) was synthesized using a solvothermal method and its synthesis was confirmed by surface area, PZC, XRD, FESEM, XPS, TGA, TEM, EDX mapping and EDX analysis. The chitosan composite of the iron metal-organic framework (CS/MOF-235), MOF-235 and chitosan were used for the removal of methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) from aqueous solutions. The maximum adsorption capacities were found to be 2857-2326 mg/g for CS/MOF-235, 357 - 236 mg/g for MOF-235 and 209-171 mg/g for chitosan (CS) which reveal that the adsorption capacity of CS/MOF-235 is almost 8 and 14 times greater than MOF-235 and chitosan respectively. The adsorption selectivity of the (CS/MOF-235) towards the dye was in the order MO > MB. Moreover, hydrogen bonding, pi-pi bonding, pore-filling, electrostatic interactions and chemisorption were proposed as possible mechanisms for the removal of dyes onto CS/MOF-235. The intraparticle diffusion and Richenberg models confirmed that the adsorption process was jointly controlled by the pore and film diffusion. The negative values of the isosteric heat of adsorption (ΔH¯) fall with surface coverage indicating that a lesser amount of heat is required for the greater uptake of dyes.

Abstract
In this study, we evaluated the use of prickly pear seed cake, a by-product of prickly pear seed oil extraction, as a new precursor for producing activated carbon by phosphoric acid activation, and the obtained carbon’s capacity for heavy metal removal from aqueous solution. Response surface methodology based on the full factorial design at two levels (24) was developed to reduce the number of experiments and reach optimal preparation conditions for the removal of cadmium and lead ions from aqueous solutions. Design Expert 11.1.2.0 Trial software was used for generating the statistical experimental design and analyzing the observed data. Factors influencing the activation process, such as carbonization temperature, activation temperature, activation time, and impregnation ratio, were studied. Responses were studied in depth with an analysis of variance to estimate their significance. Each response was outlined by a first-order regression equation demonstrating satisfactory correspondence between the predicted and experimental results as the adjusted coefficients of correlation. Based on the statistical data, the best conditions for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution by the obtained activated carbon were indicated. The maximum iodine number and methylene blue index were 2527.3 mg g−1 and 396.5 mg g−1, respectively, using activated carbon obtained at the following conditions: Tc = 500 °C, Ta = 500 °C, impregnation ratio = 2:1 (g H3PO4: g carbon), and activation time of two hours. The maximum adsorption reached 170.2 mg g−1 and 158.4 mg g−1 for Cd2+ and Pb2+, respectively, using activated carbon obtained at the following conditions: Tc = 600 °C, Ta = 400 °C, impregnation ratio = 2:1 (g H3PO4: g carbon), and activation time of one hour. The activated carbon obtained was characterized by Boehm titration, pH of point of zero charge (pHPZC), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area (SBET), and scanning electron microscopy. Adsorption was performed according to different parameters: pH solution, adsorbent dosage, temperature, contact time, and initial concentration. Regeneration experiments proved that the obtained activated carbon still had a high removal capacity for Cd2+ and Pb2+ after five regeneration cycles.

Kaya-Özkiper K, Uzun A, Soyer-Uzun S. A novel alkali activated magnesium silicate as an effective and mechanically strong adsorbent for methylene blue removal. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 424:127256. [PMID: 34879543 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.127256] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2021] [Revised: 09/13/2021] [Accepted: 09/14/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
A novel, cheap, and easy-to-synthesize sepiolite-based alkali-activated material (Sep-AAM), synthesized by the reaction of a magnesium silicate source, sepiolite, with sodium silicate solution, demonstrating high mechanical strength and methylene blue (MB) removal performance is introduced. Kinetics data indicated that MB adsorption occurs through pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetics model, while the Langmuir isotherm model provided a better fit to adsorption isotherms. The Sep-AAM provided a removal capacity of 99.92 mg g-1 at 50 °C, setting a new benchmark value among the materials used for this purpose. Thermodynamical parameters indicated that the adsorption of MB onto Sep-AAM was endothermic and the interaction between Sep-AAM and MB included weak chemical bonding. Regenerability of the Sep-AAM in powder and monolith forms was confirmed up to four-cycles. Structural parameters determined by several characterization tools demonstrated that the surface hydroxyl groups are responsible for the superior MB adsorption performance. The mechanical strength measurements showed that Sep-AAM in monolith form displayed a remarkable compressive strength value of 40 MPa. To establish a new approach forward on the development of AAMs for wastewater treatment, this study shows that sepiolite can effectively be utilized and Sep-AAM provides a sustainable solution for dye removal with advanced mechanical properties.

Abstract
Adsorbents reported for liquid phase decontamination under both aqueous and non-aqueous media are all dispersed phase sorbents that further require a tedious separation step post adsorption. Herein, a monolith, highly porous, and mechanically robust scaffold was synthesized for the adsorption of pollutants from both aqueous and non-aqueous media with facile separation and regeneration. Methylcellulose-tannic acid complex particles were prepared and systematically decorated on the surface of interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) scaffold via Pickering emulsion. Due to the surface coating of the particles, plausible amphiphilic adsorption of quinoline (QUI) and methylene blue (MB) was achieved from fuel and water, respectively. The hydroxyl (OH-) and carboxyl (COOH-) groups of tannic acid, alginate, and polyacrylic acid created hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interaction, acid-base interaction, and π-π stacking. Maximum adsorption capacity of 791.17 mg/g MB and 460.92 mg/g QUI was recorded with facile separation, excellent adsorbent regeneration, and reusability. Although both followed the pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetic model, a different mechanism was identified to govern the adsorption under aqueous and non-aqueous environment i.e. only the surface particles were active for QUI adsorption while the scaffold was also involved for MB adsorption.

Abstract
The adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) and methylene blue (MB) was studied in a batch reactor using activated carbon (RAC), prepared from natural rubber waste, along with the commercial activated carbon (CAC). Maximum uptake of Cr(VI) and MB by the RAC was 21 and 30 mg g-1, respectively, whereas the corresponding uptake by CAC was 145 and 224 mg g-1. The kinetics of adsorption, however, was found to be faster in RAC than CAC. Both adsorbents were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, and FESEM-EDS. The predictability of various kinetic models, including the Weber-Morris model, was adversely affected by linearization. A multi-linear plot of adsorbed concentration versus square root of time failed to justify the multi-resistance hypothesis of mass transfer. Experimental kinetic data matched well with four surface reactions and an intraparticle diffusion model but showed substantial deviation from the numerical solution of another Fickian model incorporating mass balance and Langmuir isotherm.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have recently come to the fore as potential adsorbents due to their high surface, high efficiency, and adsorption capacity. This study the performance of polypyrrole nanotube incorporated sodium alginate (SA/PPyNT) on the adsorptive removal of methylene blue dye from an aqueous solution was investigated. Firstly, polypyrrole nanotubes were synthesized by oxidative chemical polymerization. Then, polypyrrole nanotubes were added to the sodium alginate gel and the composite beads were prepared by a crosslinking process in a 3% CaCl2 solution. The composite beads were characterized using Fourier transform infrared-attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and atomic force microscopy analyzes. In the adsorption studies, to determine the optimum conditions, experiments were carried out at different conditions namely temperature (25-45 °C), contact time, initial pH (2-12), adsorbent dosage (1-5 g/L), dye concentrations (10-50 mg/L). The studies indicated that the removal percentage of MB reached up to 90.5% at pH = 7 and 25 °C. Furthermore, different isotherm models such as Freundlich, Langmuir, D-R, and Harkins-Jura were applied. Considering the correlation coefficients, the Langmuir isotherm model was found to be the most suitable model (r2 = 0.9974). The adsorption capacity showed the maximum at 666.7 mg/g in pH = 7 at 25 °C. As a result of the kinetic studies, it was seen that adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (r2 = 0.9976). When thermodynamic parameters were examined, it was seen that the adsorption occurred exothermically (∆HA = - 68.1 kJ/mol) and spontaneously (∆GA298 = - 27.4 kJ/mol). From the data obtained, it was concluded that the SA/PPyNT composites are promising material as an adsorbent.

Abstract
In this work, we presented the paracetamol-activated carbon interactions and their effect on the adsorption capacity. We evaluated kinetic, equilibrium, and calorimetric data using different solvents (water, HCl 0.1 M, and NaCl 0.1 M) to evaluate the changes in the adsorbent-adsorbate interaction. In addition, the commercial activated carbon (AC) was modified through thermal (ACTT) and chemical (ACNA) methods to change the physicochemical properties of the adsorbents. The relative kinetic constants decrease with the content of basic groups on the activated carbon, indicating a lower influence of diffusion on the adsorption rate when the chemical interactions increase (0.1 ACNA >0.09 AC >0.03 ACTT mmol g-1). The adsorption capacity for AC at acidic pH increases slightly compared to tests carried out in the water. Under this condition, the adsorbed amount of paracetamol was 1.31 mmol g-1. However, the maximum adsorption capacity was achieved on ACTT using water as solvent (1.57 mmol g-1). The paracetamol adsorbed decreases in NaCl (osmotic, ionic strength) on all activated carbons by around 20%. The interaction enthalpy of the paracetamol-activated carbon interaction presents values between - 18.0 and 2.3 J per molecule adsorbed. The Gibbs energy released during the adsorption process is between - 33.1 and - 29.8 kJ mol-1.

Abstract
Adsorption is one of the commonly used methods in wastewater treatment, but it has the problem of high cost and a complicated production process. In this paper, a low-cost and efficient decolorizing adsorbent was successfully prepared based on waste polyacrylonitrile fiber (PANF). The waste PANF was ammoniated by propylene diamine derivates (PANAMF), and benzylamine (PANABMF) and quaternary ammonium ions (PANQMF) were introduced for PANAMF to regulate hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity. With acidic red 249 as the model anionic dye, influences of the adsorption center structure, the degree of modification, the concentration of acid, the dye structure, and the auxiliary agent in the solution on the dye adsorption performance were studied. Isothermal models, kinetic models, reusability, and continuous application ability of the fiber adsorbent were discussed. PANAMF, PANABMF, and PANAQF exhibit excellent adsorption performance compared to the common adsorbent. After protonation, the saturation adsorption value can reach 2051.3 mg/g for PANAMF. PANAMF also exhibited excellent reusability, and the adsorption capacity after being reused eight times still can keep 72.7% of that for the first time. The adsorption of the anionic dye for PANAMF is a chemisorption process, and the rate-determining step is changed from the diffuse step to the adsorption on the surface with the adsorption time. PANAMF can also be used in the continuous flow process, and the absorption amount is similar to that in the batch adsorption, which shows excellent commercial application potential.

Abstract
A series of hydroxylated polystyrene (PS-OH) resins were prepared from macroporous poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) by nitration, reductive amination, diazotation and hydrolysis in sequence, and then a series of hyper-cross-linked hydroxylated polystyrene (HCPS-OH) resins were successfully prepared from the PS-OH resins by the Friedel–Crafts post-cross-linking using dichloromethane as an external cross-linker. Benefiting from the synthetic protocol, the HCPS-OH resins showed better adsorption performance for methylene blue in aqueous solution as compared with the corresponding PS-OH resins. HCPS-OH-4, one of the fabricated HCPS-OH resins which had the hydroxyl content of 5.0 mmol g−1 and BET specific surface area of 69.0 m2 g−1, showed the highest adsorption capacity and selectivity for methylene blue. Higher temperature, higher pH, and higher ionic strength were beneficial to adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution. HCPS-OH-4 could be regenerated by treatment with 1.0 M HCl methanol solution and deionized water sequentially. Moreover, HCPS-OH-4 retained good adsorption performance for methylene blue even after 5 cycles of adsorption and regeneration, which implied that it was a good candidate for adsorptive removal of methylene blue dye in waste water. This study presents the preparation of hyper-cross-linked hydroxylated polystyrene (HCPS-OH) resins using dichloromethane as an external cross-linker for the adsorption of methylene blue.![]()

Abstract
Hierarchical Zn-ZSM-5 photocatalyst structures were synthesized via a hydrothermal one-pot synthesis route using a double template. Activated attapulgite (Si-ATP) and zinc nitrate (Zn(NO3)2) precursors were used as silicon and zinc sources, respectively. The structural properties, morphology, photocatalytic activity and the texture properties of the synthesized Zn-ZSM-5 photocatalysts were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), diffracted ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectrometry (DRUV–Vis) and N2 adsorption/desorption, respectively. It was found that the composites exhibit a typical MFI framework structure, a hexahedral twin structure and typical UV absorption peaks at 292 nm and 246 nm, when the Zn/Si mole ratio reaches its optimum value of 1:100. The hierarchical nanocrystals exhibit a similar Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area (309 m2 g−1) and a high mesopore ratio (37.47%) as compared to commercial zeolites. Sub-nano-sized zinc oxide (ZnO) particles with small size moieties were implanted and isolated in the silica matrices of micro-mesoporous zeolite, which had a significant photocatalytic activity and reusability of degrading methylene blue (MB) dyeing wastewater. Using a 500 W mercury lamp with the wavelength range from 185–500 nm operating during an illumination time of 30 min, the concentration of MB decreases significantly in the presence of Zn-ZSM-5 photocatalyst leading to a 95.56% of degradation, where the ratio still remained at 94.32% after six times of reuse.
