[PMID: 38547839 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.125913] [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: 10/19/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/04/2024]
Abstract
In this study, a novel three-dimensional hierarchical porous deep eutectic solvents-modified graphene aerogel (3D DES-GA) was synthesized for use as a solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber coating. The SPME fiber was characterized by its fluffy and hierarchical porous structure, uniform thickness, and rapid mass transfer capabilities. This fiber demonstrated a lifetime (≥160 uses) and excellent precision (with relative standard deviations of 2.4-6.6% for single fiber and 6.0-9.8% for fiber-to-fiber repeatability). The SPME fiber also exhibited remarkable extraction performance for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and polychlorinated biphenyls, which are common persistent organic pollutants in environmental samples. When combined with gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, the method allowed for high-efficiency extraction (enrichment factors ranging from 1225 to 4652 folds) and sensitive determination (limit of detection ranging from 0.010 to 0.056 pg g-1) of polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) in complex samples. To validate this method, we applied it to the determination of four PCNs in five types of fish tissues. The results revealed the presence of 1-chloronaphthalene at concentrations of 7.0 ± 2.9-34.8 ± 2.1 pg g-1 and 1,4-dichloronaphthalene at concentrations of 6.0 ± 0.3-10.9 ± 1.4 pg g-1 in three fish species. Compared with reported sample pretreatment methods reported in the literature, this proposed headspace SPME method offers additional advantages, including simplicity of operation and reduced sample and organic solvent consumption.

Abstract
The exceptional photoelectromagnetic characteristics of rare-earth elements contribute significantly to their indispensable position in the high-tech industry. The exponential expansion of the demand for high-purity rare earth and related compounds can be attributed to the swift advancement of contemporary technology. Nevertheless, rare-earth elements are finite and limited resources, and their excessive mining unavoidably results in resource depletion and environmental degradation. Hence, it is crucial to establish a highly effective approach for the extraction and reclamation of rare-earth elements. Adsorption is regarded as a promising technique for the recovery of rare-earth elements owing to its simplicity, environmentally friendly nature, and cost-effectiveness. The efficacy of adsorption is contingent upon the performance characteristics of the adsorbent material. Presently, there is a prevalent utilization of porous adsorbent materials with substantial specific surface areas and plentiful surface functional groups in the realm of selectively separating and recovering rare-earth elements. This paper presents a thorough examination of porous inorganic carbon materials, porous inorganic silicon materials, porous organic polymers, and metal-organic framework materials. The adsorption performance and processes for rare-earth elements are the focal points of discussion about these materials. Furthermore, this work investigates the potential applications of porous materials in the domain of the adsorption of rare-earth elements.

Development of a three-dimensional porous ionic liquid-chitosan-graphene oxide aerogel for efficient extraction and detection of polyhalogenated carbazoles in sediment samples. Talanta 2024; 271:125711.

Abstract
The three-dimensional porous ionic liquid-chitosan-graphene oxide aerogel (IL-CS-GOA) monolithic adsorbent with a through-hole structure was prepared using natural chitosan (CS) as the skeletal framework, graphene oxide (GO) as the support to provide mechanical strength, and ionic liquid (IL) as the porogen and modifier. The resulting IL-CS-GOA demonstrated a fluffy and porous structure with various pore sizes and excellent regeneration capability (over six cycles). Its specific surface area exceeded that of CS-GOA and IL-GOA by more than 7 times, enhancing its polyhalogenated carbazoles (PHCZs) adsorption capacity. Within 5 min, IL-CS-GOA (1.0 mg) exhibited adsorption amounts of 539 ng mg-1 for 3-bromocarbazole (3-BCZ), 716 ng mg-1 for 2,7-dibromocarbazole (2,7-BCZ), and 798 ng mg-1 for 1,3,6,8-tetrabromocarbazole (1,3,6,8-BCZ), showcasing its rapid mass transfer and high adsorption capabilities. IL-CS-GOA was utilized as the adsorbent for glass dropper extraction (GDE) in conjunction with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS), to develop a highly efficient and accurate method for determining PHCZs in sediments. Under optimal conditions, the established method exhibited a wide linear range (0.4-250 ng g-1, r ≥ 0.9990), low detection limits (0.04-0.24 ng g-1), and satisfactory recoveries (80.5 %-93.8 %), enabling the accurate and rapid detection of PHCZs in sediment samples. This study presents a novel approach for creating three-dimensional porous aerogels, introduces a new form of sample pretreatment using GDE with a monolithic adsorbent, and offers a new method for the determination of PHCZs in environmental matrices.

Abstract
Recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) with trace amount in environmental applications and nuclear energy is becoming an increasingly urgent issue due to their genotoxicity and important role in society. Here, highly efficient recovery of low-concentration REEs from aqueous solutions by an enhanced chemisorption and electrosorption process of oxygen-doped molybdenum disulfide (O-doped MoS2) electrodes is performed. All REEs could be extremely recovered through a chemisorption and electrosorption coupling (CEC) method, and sorption behaviors were related with their outer-shell electrons. Light, medium, and heavy ((La(III), Gd(III), and Y(III)) rare earth elements were chosen for further investigating the adsorption and recovery performances under low-concentration conditions. Recovery of REEs could approach 100% under a low initial concentration condition where different recovery behaviors occurred with variable chemisorption interactions between REEs and O-doped MoS2. Experimental and theoretical results proved that doping O in MoS2 not only reduced the transfer resistance and improved the electrical double layer thickness of ion storage but also enhanced the chemical interaction of REEs and MoS2. Various outer-shell electrons of REEs performed different surficial chemisorption interactions with exposed sulfur and oxygen atoms of O-doped MoS2. Effects of variants including environmental conditions and operating parameters, such as applied voltage, initial concentration, pH condition, and electrode distance on adsorption capacity and recovery of REEs were examined to optimize the recovery process in order to achieve an ideal selective recovery of REEs. The total desorption of REEs from the O-doped MoS2 electrode was realized within 120 min while the electrode demonstrated a good cycling performance. This work presented a prospective way in establishing a CEC process with a two-dimensional metal sulfide electrode through structure engineering for efficient recovery of REEs within a low concentration range.

Abstract
Gadolinium is widely applied in medical and high-tech materials because of special magnetic properties. Recovery of gadolinium from waste rare earth products has both economic and environmental value. In this experiment, honeycomb porous composite aerogels were constructed using sericin and sodium alginate mixed with functionally modified carboxymethylated cellulose nanocrystals for the adsorption and separation of gadolinium ions. There were large numbers of carboxyl groups as well as hydroxyl groups on the surface of sodium alginate and filamentous protein, which provided more sites for the adsorption of gadolinium ions. Besides, a stable honeycomb structure appeared on the surface of composite aerogels when the mixture of filamentous protein and sodium alginate was 1:1, which increased the specific surface area of materials to 140.65 m2 g-1. Additionally, the imprinted composite aerogels Ic-CNC/SSA were prepared by virtue of the imprinting technology, enhancing the adsorption selectivity of composite aerogels for gadolinium. The adsorption experiments revealed that the maximum adsorption capacity of Ic-CNC/SSA reached 93.41 mg g-1 at pH 7.0, indicating good selective adsorption of gadolinium ions. In summary, such composite aerogels provide great potential and reference value for the selective adsorption of gadolinium ions in industry.

Abstract
An oleanolic acid (OA) surface molecularly imprinted polymer silylated porous composite aerogels (OA-MIP@Si-PC-aerogels) adsorbent material was successfully prepared and characterized. The material not only has a great selectivity for the target molecule OA but also has other noteworthy qualities including high stability, excellent repeatability, and a sizable adsorption capacity. via cellulose and sodium alginate as the main materials, the carrier Si-PC-aerogels were made through ionic cross-linking, chemical cross-linking, and silylation procedures. By adopting a surface molecular imprinting approach on Si-PC-aerogels, OA-MIP@Si-PC-aerogels were effectively created utilizing OA as the template molecule and MAA as the functional monomer. Due to the presence of a specific imprinted layer on the aerogel surface, the adsorption capacity of OA-MIP@Si-PC-aerogels for OA could reach 66.20 mg g-1. OA-MIP@Si-PC-aerogels could achieve a 68.86% yield of OA from the extracts of lingonberry (Vaccinium Vitis-Idaea L.). The adsorption capacity remained at 90% after five consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles. HepG2 cells were exposed to OA that was effectively enriched with OA-MIP@Si-PC-aerogels in lingonberry (Vaccinium Vitis-Idaea L.) fruit homogenates. This OA significantly inhibited the growth of HepG2 cells in vitro. It further demonstrated that OA-MIP@Si-PC-aerogels could efficiently target OA enrichment and separation with good recovery.

Abstract
It is of tremendous economic and environmental significance to obtain a powerful adsorbent for the extraction of Gd3+ from wastewater. Adsorbents derived from cellulosic materials functionalized with specific chelators show great promise for the removal of heavy metal ions from wastewater. The selectivity of these sorbents for metal ions is, however, still rather poor. Here, we present a technique for trapping Gd3+ ions from wastewater by synthesizing Gd3+ ion-imprinted polymers based on isatinhydrazone-functionalized cellulose (Gd-ISH-CE). Not only did isatinhydrazone work as a tridentate ligand to directly provide ligand vacancies and build hierarchy pores on Gd-ISH-CE, but it also enabled cross-linking through the epichlorohydrine cross-linker thanks to its very effective NH2 functionalization. The as-prepared Gd-ISH-CE with ISH functionality shows a high adsorption capacity of 275 mg/g and a rapid equilibration time of 30 min for Gd3+ due to its plentiful binding sites and hierarchical pore structure. Furthermore, Gd-ISH-CE shows very selective capture of Gd3+ over competing ions. By integrating the benefits of ion-imprinting and chelator functionalization methodologies in an effortless manner, this study presents a practical approach to the development of superior materials for Gd3+ recovery.

Abstract
Research on recycling of used rare earth elements has been of great interest. Adsorption is one of the advantageous methods to recover gadolinium with high value. In the process of adsorption and separation of gadolinium from materials, the selectivity of materials for gadolinium can be significantly improved by using ion imprinting technique. However, gadolinium elution process is a traditional pickling process, which may affect the construction of imprinting sites. In this study, bacterial cellulose with three-dimensional spatial structure was used as the base material of aerogel material, and functional materials containing a large number of carboxyl groups were introduced by chemical grafting method. In combination with ion imprinting technology and N-polyacrylamide as intelligent temperature control valve, intelligent imprinting aerogel (PNBC-IIPS) with specific selectivity to gadolinium was prepared. The properties of aerogel materials were analyzed by SEM, FT-IR, and BET characterization. The experimental analysis shows that the desorption of gadolinium can be achieved by controlling the temperature change. The adsorption experiments show that PNBC-IIPS can selectively adsorb gadolinium ions from aqueous solution. The maximum adsorption capacity reached 95.51 mg g-1. Compared with unimprinted aerogel, the maximum adsorption capacity of gadolinium ion is significantly increased, which proves that the introduced ion imprinting technique plays a key role in the adsorption process. Cyclic experiments show that the adsorption capacity of PNBC-IIPS can still maintain 88% of the original adsorption capacity after 5 times of adsorption and desorption. In conclusion, PNBC-IIPS is a green adsorbent for selective recovery of gadolinium ions.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 340:139804. [PMID: 37579820 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.139804] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 08/16/2023]
Abstract
The proven high carcinogenicity to humans and high destructive force to the environment determine the extreme urgency of eliminating hypertoxic Cr(VI) in water bodies. Herein, a route of room temperature synthesis and secondary grafting was proposed to fabricate graphene oxide-based nanoadsorbent co-functionalized with polydopamine and branched polyethyleneimine (GOPP) to remove Cr(VI). The flexible decoration of polydopamine and polyethyleneimine on GO flakes could gradually enhance the amount of N-containing functional groups and realize selective removal of Cr(VI) with the maximum experimental adsorption capacity of 564.7 mg/g, displaying a significantly high separation factor against alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, and other transition metal ions. Various combination mechanisms, such as electrostatic attraction, reduction, complexation, and hydrogen bonding, were demonstrated to be involved in the adsorption process of Cr(VI) by XPS, ESP, and DFT calculations. And the interaction energies of the five protonated configurations of primary amine, tertiary amine, secondary amine, imine, and secondary amine on the ring with HCrO4- were: -22.66, -12.08, -24.92, -24.26, -27.64 kcal/mol. In the actual industrial wastewater study, a Cr(VI) removal rate of 85.8% was realized. This work provided a viable idea for the elimination of Cr(VI) and was expected to be applied in the field of wastewater treatment.

Abstract
An environmental friendly hydrogel adsorbent (DEC@GEL) was successfully manufactured by a facile free-radical polymerization method. Multiple characterizations demonstrated that the adsorbent was rich in functional groups and porous structures. The batch and multisystem adsorption experiments were applied to systematically investigate the adsorption properties of methylene blue (MB), malachite green (MG), indigo sodium dimethyl sulfonate (IC) and tartrazine (TR) in wastewater. The experimental results proved that the kinetic and isotherms of four dyes were more consistent with the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir model, respectively. Notably, the maximum adsorption capacities of MB, MG, TR and IC at 318 K were 2186.85, 2302.53, 1766.13 and 2301.75 mg/g, respectively, which were higher than many adsorbents that had been reported. Recycle experiment demonstrated the high reusability of the DEC@GEL. The selectivity and adsorption column experiments proved that DEC@GEL was not only widely applicable to various dyes, but also provided a positive start for the industrial application. Moreover, the simulated adsorption experiments further demonstrate that DEC@GEL had the prospect of application in real industrial conditions. Finally, four adsorption mechanisms had been proposed. Various adsorption experiments had shown that DEC@GEL was not only efficient in processing dyes, but also had great potential for practical industrial applications.

Abstract
The introduction of selective recognition sites toward certain heavy metal ions (HMIs) is a great challenge, which has a major role when the separation of species with similar physicochemical features is considered. In this context, ion-imprinted polymers (IIPs) developed based on the principle of molecular imprinting methodology, have emerged as an innovative solution. Recent advances in IIPs have shown that they exhibit higher selectivity coefficients than non-imprinted ones, which could support a large range of environmental applications starting from extraction and monitoring of HMIs to their detection and quantification. This review will emphasize the application of IIPs for selective removal of transition metal ions (including HMIs, precious metal ions, radionuclides, and rare earth metal ions) from aqueous solution by critically analyzing the most relevant literature studies from the last decade. In the first part of this review, the chemical components of IIPs, the main ion-imprinting technologies as well as the characterization methods used to evaluate the binding properties are briefly presented. In the second part, synthesis parameters, adsorption performance, and a descriptive analysis of solid phase extraction of heavy metal ions by various IIPs are provided.

Abstract
Radiation-induced skin injury (RISI) is a common complication of radiotherapy. Interferon-alpha inducible protein 6 (IFI6) significantly reduces the radiation sensitivity of HaCaT cells. Sodium alginate (SA) has substantial moisturizing properties. Graphene oxide (GO) is a suitable substrate with physical antibacterial properties. Therefore, we designed materials to modify IFI6 using the biogule of polydopamine (PDA) connected to GO/SA. The structure, size, morphology, and elemental compositions of IFI6-PDA@GO/SA were analyzed. Cytological studies suggested that IFI6-PDA@GO/SA is non-toxic to HaCaT cells, with antibacterial properties. It promotes migration and vascularization and inhibits apoptosis. These cells express IFI6 after irradiation. The mouse model suggested that IFI6-PDA@GO/SA promotes wound healing and reduces reactive oxygen species expression. IFI6-PDA@GO/SA accelerates RISI healing, possibly by initiating the SSBP1/HSF1 signaling pathway. In addition, IFI6-PDA@GO/SA improves the immune microenvironment. This study constitutes the first use of IFI6 as a RISI wound-healing material.

Abstract
It has been a major challenge to develop stable and cost-effective porous materials that efficiently recover heavy rare earth elements (HREEs) due to ever-increasing demand, low availability and high cost of HREEs. This study presents two novel benzylphosphate-based covalent porous organic polymers (BPOP-1 and BPOP-2) that were prepared by facile one-pot Friedel-Crafts reactions. Various analytical techniques are used to investigate the successful syntheses of BPOP materials and establish their material properties, which include an unusual crystalline nature, large surface area, hierarchical pore structure, and superior chemical stabilities. The BPOPs effectively adsorb, and thus remove HREEs from aqueous media. In particular, BPOP-1 had higher phosphate content and exhibits superior adsorption capacities (Eu3+: 289.5; Gd3+: 292.7; Tb3+: 294.4; Dy3+: 301.9 mg/g) than BPOP-2, while BPOP-2 had higher mesoporosity and correspondingly supports faster adsorption kinetics. Remarkably, both BPOP materials exhibit some of the highest HREE adsorption capacities reported to date, the selective capture of Dy3+ ions, and excellent cyclic adsorption/desorption properties. We provide a potential adsorption mechanism for Dy3+ capture by the BPOP adsorbent. These demonstrate that introducing phosphate functionality into a robust porous polymer backbone with high surface area is a promising strategy for selective HREEs capture from wastewater.

Abstract
The recovery of rare-earth from secondary sources is essential for cleaner production. The development of natural biocomposites is promising for this purpose. Sericin is a waste protein from silk manufacturing. The highly polar groups on the surface of sericin facilitate blending and crosslinking with other polymers to produce biocomposites with improved properties. In this work, we investigate ytterbium recovery onto a natural biocomposite based on sericin/alginate/poly(vinyl alcohol) (SAPVA) in packed-bed column, aiming to establish a profitable application for sericin. Effects of flow rate and ytterbium inlet concentration showed that the highest exhaustion biosorption capacity (128.39 mg/g) and lowest mass transfer zone (4.13 cm) were reached under the operating conditions of 0.03 L/h and 87.95 mg/L. Four reusability cycles were performed under the optimum operating conditions using 0.3 mol/L HNO3. Ytterbium recovery was highly successful; desorption efficiency was higher than 97% and a final ytterbium-rich concentrate (3870 mg/L) was 44 times higher than input concentration. Regenerated beads characterization showed that the cation exchange mechanism plays a major function in continuous biosorption of ytterbium. SAPVA beads also showed higher biosorption/desorption performance for ytterbium than other competing ions. These results suggest the application of SAPVA may be an alternative for large-scale ytterbium recovery.

Abstract
Industrial waste acidic gases are huge hazards to the environment and human health, so a material that can detect and remove them is needed. In this paper, CM chitosan-Eu3+ fluorescence aerogel was prepared via a green method by combining the carboxymethyl chitosan biomass polymer with Eu3+ ions, the structure and properties of this aerogel were characterized by SEM, TG, and stress-strain curves. The coordination of Eu3+ ions and carboxymethyl chitosan was analyzed with XPS and the difference in luminescence intensity of aerogel prepared at different pH values was analyzed. The monitoring of the aerogels revealed different responses to different acidic gases, and the fluorescence intensity of the aerogel showed a linear decrease with the adsorbed hydrogen chloride gas (HCl), while acetic acid gas (HAc) enhanced fluorescence. The adsorption system of the CM chitosan-Eu3+ aerogel was simulated using pseudo-second-order kinetics, which showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of HCl is 9.16 mmol/g. The different response mechanisms of HCl and HAc gas were analyzed with FT-IR, fluorescence lifetime imaging and Judd-Ofelt theory. This fluorescence aerogel was found to have potential applications in ensuring industrial production safety.

Abstract
Chitosan has received widespread attention as an adsorbent for pollutants because of its low cost and great adsorption potentials. Chitosan has abundant hydroxyl and amino groups that can bind heavy metal ions. However, it has defects such as sensitivity to pH, low thermal stability, and low mechanical strength, which limit the application of chitosan in wastewater treatment. The functional groups of chitosan can be modified to improve its performance via crosslinking and graft modification. The porosity and specific surface area of chitosan in powder form are not ideal, therefore, physical modification has been attempted to generate chitosan nanoparticles and hydrogel. Chitosan has also been integrated with other materials (e.g. graphene, zeolite) resulting in composite materials with improved adsorption performance. This review mainly focuses on reports about the application of chitosan and its derivatives to remove different heavy metals. The preparation strategy, adsorption mechanism, and factors affecting the adsorption performance of adsorbents for each type of heavy metal are discussed in detail. Recent reports on important organic pollutants (dyes and phenol) removal by chitosan and its derivatives are also briefly discussed.

Graphene-Based Materials Immobilized within Chitosan: Applications as Adsorbents for the Removal of Aquatic Pollutants. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14133655. [PMID: 34209007 PMCID: PMC8269710 DOI: 10.3390/ma14133655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2021] [Revised: 06/23/2021] [Accepted: 06/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Graphene and its derivatives, especially graphene oxide (GO), are attracting considerable interest in the fabrication of new adsorbents that have the potential to remove various pollutants that have escaped into the aquatic environment. Herein, the development of GO/chitosan (GO/CS) composites as adsorbent materials is described and reviewed. This combination is interesting as the addition of graphene to chitosan enhances its mechanical properties, while the chitosan hydrogel serves as an immobilization matrix for graphene. Following a brief description of both graphene and chitosan as independent adsorbent materials, the emerging GO/CS composites are introduced. The additional materials that have been added to the GO/CS composites, including magnetic iron oxides, chelating agents, cyclodextrins, additional adsorbents and polymeric blends, are then described and discussed. The performance of these materials in the removal of heavy metal ions, dyes and other organic molecules are discussed followed by the introduction of strategies employed in the regeneration of the GO/CS adsorbents. It is clear that, while some challenges exist, including cost, regeneration and selectivity in the adsorption process, the GO/CS composites are emerging as promising adsorbent materials.
