Polymers (Basel) 2024; 16:1027. [PMID: 38674947 PMCID: PMC11054624 DOI: 10.3390/polym16081027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2024] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting opens up many possibilities for tissue engineering, thanks to its ability to create a three-dimensional environment for cells like an extracellular matrix. However, the use of natural polymers such as silk fibroin in 3D bioprinting faces obstacles such as having a limited printability due to the low viscosity of such solutions. This study addresses these gaps by developing highly viscous, stable, and biocompatible silk fibroin-based inks. The addition of 2% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium and 1% sodium alginate to an aqueous solution containing 2.5 to 5% silk fibroin significantly improves the printability, stability, and mechanical properties of the printed scaffolds. It has been demonstrated that the more silk fibroin there is in bioinks, the higher their printability. To stabilize silk fibroin scaffolds in an aqueous environment, the printed structures must be treated with methanol or ethanol, ensuring the transition from the silk fibroin's amorphous phase to beta sheets. The developed bioinks that are based on silk fibroin, alginate, and carboxymethyl cellulose demonstrate an ease of printing and a high printing quality, and have a sufficiently good biocompatibility with respect to mesenchymal stromal cells. The printed scaffolds have satisfactory mechanical characteristics. The resulting 3D-printing bioink composition can be used to create tissue-like structures.

Abstract
With the continuous improvement in oilfield development and the application of tertiary oil recovery technology, the water content of oilfield-produced fluids has gradually increased, and a large number of oilfield sewage with complex components has also been produced after oil–water separation, and effective treatment is urgently needed. ASP flooding sewage contains alkali, various surfactants, polymers, microemulsion oil droplets, and solid impurities, which are difficult to be effectively treated by traditional water treatment agents and methods. In this study, aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES) was used to modify the nano-Fe3O4 coated with tetraethyl silicate (TEOS). The product was used as the ferromagnetic nano-core for the iterative reaction of Michael addition and ester amidation to synthesize a magnetic hyperbranched polyamide amine, and its performance in the treatment of ASP flooding wastewater was evaluated experimentally. For the preparation of APTES-modified Fe3O4@SiO2 (FOSN) product, TEOS was coated over Fe3O4 in an ethanol aqueous solution environment and then APTES was added dropwise. The first-generation branched product (1-FSMN) was obtained by the reaction of FOSN and methyl acrylate graft product (FOSN-M) with ethylenediamine, and the highest yield was 93.7%. The highest yield of the second-generation branched product (2-FSMN) was 91.6%. In this study, a composite flooding wastewater sample from a block in the Bohai oilfield was taken. The suspended solids content was 143 mg/L, the oil content was 921.09 mg/L, the turbidity was 135 NTU, and the zeta potential was −47 mV. The third-generation hyperbranched polymer (3-FSMN) and its quaternary ammonium salt (3-FSMN-Q) performed best in the appropriate dosage range, with the highest oil removal rate of 97%, suspended solid removal rate of 90.3%, turbidity reduction rate of 86.6% and zeta potential reduction rate of 88%. For 3-FSMN and its quaternary ammonium salt, the gravity/magnetic PAC compound treatment experiment was carried out. In the settlement time of only 5 min, 3-FSMN/PAC and 3-FSMN-Q/PAC can achieve the maximum oil removal rate of 87.1% and suspended solids removal rate of 87.3% for polymer containing wastewater from ASP flooding, and 86.3 and 86.0% for 120 mg/L. Its treatment capacity was much better than that of common treatment agent combination (CPAM/PAC).

Synthesis of nano-silica and biogenic iron (oxyhydr)oxides composites mediated by iron oxidizing bacteria to remove antimonite and antimonate from aqueous solution: Performance and mechanisms. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 422:126821. [PMID: 34419843 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2021.126821] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Removal of antimony from wastewater is essential because of its potential harm to the environment and human health. Nano-silica and biogenic iron (oxyhydr)oxides composites (BS-Fe) were prepared by iron oxidizing bacteria (IOB) mediation and the batch adsorption experiments were applied to investigate antimonite (Sb(III)) and antimonate (Sb(V)) removal behaviors. By contrast, the synthetic BS-Fe calcined at 400 ℃ (BS-Fe-400) exhibited a large specific surface area (157.353 m2/g). The maximum adsorption capacities of BS-Fe-400 were 102.10 and 337.31 mg/g for Sb(III) and Sb(V), respectively, and experimental data fit well to the Langmuir isotherm and Temkin models, and followed the pseudo-second order kinetic model. Additionally, increasing pH promoted Sb(III) adsorption, while inhibited the adsorption of Sb(V), indicating that electrostatic attraction made a contribution to Sb(V) adsorption. Moreover, different co-existing ions showed different effects on adsorption. Characterization techniques of FTIR and XPS indicated that the main functional groups involved in the adsorption were -OH, C-O, CO, C-C, etc. and Sb(III) and Sb(V) may bind to iron (oxyhydr)oxides via the formation of inner-sphere complexes. The present work revealed that the synthetic BS-Fe-400 by nano-silica and biogenic iron (oxyhydr)oxides held great application potential in antimony removal from wastewater.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 410:124633.

Abstract
There is a growing demand for heavy metal removal by membrane technology in real applications. However, few studies were reported concerning antimony (Sb) removal by membrane technology. Herein, a novel thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane comprising an alginate (SA) selective layer and a polyether sulfone (PSF) support membrane incorporating chitosan functionalized iron nanocomposite has been firstly developed for Sb removal via electrostatic self-assembly. The support matrix membrane contained iron nanocomposite (denoted as CIM) retained high water flux and porosity, and it reached a maximum removal capacity of 16.5 and 13.6 mg/g for Sb(III) and Sb(V) with nanofiller loading rate of 20% during static experiments, respectively. The coated SA top layer endowed the hybrid membrane (denoted as SA-CIM) to have a lower membrane flux, and have stronger retention abilities for Sb species than that by CIM during dynamic filtration experiments. The SA-CIM membranes also possess tolerable reversibility towards Sb removal. Benefiting from the negatively-charged dense selective layer and high adsorption capacity of the iron nanocomposites, the SA-CIM membranes demonstrated an enhanced removal capacity for Sb species via steric hindrance effect, electrostatic repulsion and adsorption. Our study offers a simple method to remove Sb by a novel polysaccharide functionalized hybrid membrane.
