Abstract
Creating a microenvironment for enhanced peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation is vital in advanced oxidation processes. The objective of this study was to fabricate nanoshells composed of titanium dioxide embedded with cobalt titanate nanoparticles of perovskite to act as nanoreactors for effectively initiating PMS and degrading contaminants. The unique porous structure and confined space of the nanoreactor facilitated reactant absorption and mass transfer to the active sites, resulting in exceptional catalytic performance for pollutant elimination. Experimental findings revealed close to 100% decomposition efficiency of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) within an hour utilizing the nanoreactors over a wide pH range. The TiO2/CoTiO3 hollow nanoshells catalysts also displayed adaptability in disintegrating organic dyes and antibiotics. The radicals SO4•-, •OH, and non-radicals 1O2 were determined to be accountable for eliminating pollutants, as supported by trapping experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra. The catalyst was confirmed as an electron donor and PMS as an electron acceptor through electrochemical tests and density functional theory calculations. This study underscores the potential of incorporating stable perovskite catalysts in hollow nanoreactors to enhance wastewater treatment.

Abstract
A robust biocompatible solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber, so-called Ti/APTS/GA/CS, was prepared by chemical bonding of cross-linked glutaraldehyde-chitosan to the surface of a titanium wire using APTS. The fiber was applied for sampling of phytohormones in plant tissues, followed by HPLC-UV analysis. The structure and morphology of the fiber coating was investigated by FT-IR, SEM, EDX, XRD, and TGA techniques. A Box-Behnken design was implemented to optimize the experimental variables. The calibration graphs were linear over a wide linear range (0.5-200 μg L-1) with LODs over the range of 0.01-0.06 μg L-1. The intra-day and inter-day precisions were found to be 1.3-6.3% and 4.3-7.3%, respectively. The matrix effect values ranged from 86.5% to 111.7%, indicating that the complex sample matrices had an insignificant effect on the determination of phytohormones. The fiber was successfully employed for the direct-immersion SPME (DI-SPME-HPLC) analysis of the phytohormones in cucumber, tomato, date palm, and calendula samples.

Xu RK, Nkoh JN. Differential immobilization of cadmium and changes in soil surface charge in acidic Ultisol by chitosan and citric acid: effect of their functional groups. ENVIRONMENTAL GEOCHEMISTRY AND HEALTH 2024; 46:275.

Abstract
Soil organic matter plays an important role in cadmium adsorption and immobilization. Since different organic matter components affect cadmium adsorption processes differently, selecting the right organic substrate and knowing how to apply it could improve cadmium remediation. This study compares the effects of two contrasting organic molecules; chitosan and citric acid, on cadmium adsorption and speciation in acidic Ultisol. The adsorption of chitosan to Ultisol significantly increased the soil positive charge while adsorption of citric acid increased the soil negative charge. At pH 5.0, the maximum amount of cadmium adsorbed in excess chitosan was 341% greater than that in excess citric acid. About 73-89% and 60-62% of adsorbed cadmium were bound to Fe/Mn oxides and organic matter/sulfide at pH 4.0 while this fraction was 77-100% and 57-58% for citric acid and chitosan at pH 5.0, respectively. This decrease in the complexing ability of chitosan was related to the destabilizing effect of high pH on chitosan's structure. Also, the sequence through which chitosan, citric acid, and cadmium were added into the adsorption system influenced the adsorption profile and this was different along a pH gradient. Specifically, adding chitosan and cadmium together increased adsorption compared to when chitosan was pre-adsorbed within pH 3.0-6.5. However, for citric acid, the addition sequence had no significant effect on cadmium adsorption between pH 3.0-4.0 compared to pH 6.5 and 7.5, with excess citric acid generally inhibiting adsorption. Given that the action of citric acid is short-lived in soil, chitosan could be a good soil amendment material for immobilizing cadmium.

ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:27766-27788. [PMID: 38973859 PMCID: PMC11223156 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c09713] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024]
Abstract
Water remediation, acknowledged as a significant scientific topic, guarantees the safety of drinking water, considering the diverse range of pollutants that can contaminate it. Among these pollutants, arsenic stands out as a particularly severe threat to human health, significantly compromising the overall quality of life. Despite widespread awareness of the harmful effects of arsenic poisoning, there remains a scarcity of literature on the utilization of biobased polymers as sustainable alternatives for comprehensive arsenic removal in practical concern. Cellulose and chitosan, two of the most prevalent biopolymers in nature, provide a wide range of potential benefits in cutting-edge industries, including water remediation. Nanocomposites derived from cellulose and chitosan offer numerous advantages over their larger equivalents, including high chelating properties, cost-effective production, strength, integrity during usage, and the potential to close the recycling loop. Within the sphere of arsenic remediation, this Review outlines the selection criteria for novel cellulose/chitosan-nanocomposites, such as scalability in synthesis, complete arsenic removal, and recyclability for technical significance. Especially, it aims to give an overview of the historical development of research in cellulose and chitosan, techniques for enhancing their performance, the current state of the art of the field, and the mechanisms underlying the adsorption of arsenic using cellulose/chitosan nanocomposites. Additionally, it extensively discusses the impact of shape and size on adsorbent efficiency, highlighting the crucial role of physical characteristics in optimizing performance for practical applications. Furthermore, this Review addresses regeneration, reuse, and future prospects for chitosan/cellulose-nanocomposites, which bear practical relevance. Therefore, this Review underscores the significant research gap and offers insights into refining the structural features of adsorbents to improve total inorganic arsenic removal, thereby facilitating the transition of green-material-based technology into operational use.

Abstract
The development of chitosan-based adsorbents with facile preparation, high adsorption performance and reusability for the removal of contaminant dyes remains a persistent challenge. To overcome this challenge, herein, we have developed a novel and extremely facile one-step strategy by which a new high-performance chitosan/polyethyleneimine/polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether adsorbent (named as CC/PEI/PGDE) has been successfully fabricated via direct functionalization of CC by PEI at ambient temperature followed by subsequent freeze-drying. The Box-Behnken Design was employed to optimize the concentrations of adsorbent components. Attractively, this adsorbent exhibit outstanding adsorption performances to congo red (RED), acid blue-25 (BLUE) and amino black-10B (BLACK) with 2901 mg g-1 (90.9 %), 3434 mg g-1 (90.9 %), and 1438 mg g-1 (90.1 %) of adsorption capacities (removal efficiencies), respectively, and maintains nearly the same adsorption behaviors to original adsorbent even after 6 cycles of adsorption-desorption processes. Meanwhile, three kinetic models, three isothermal models, and the Vant Hoff model are employed to further investigate the adsorption behaviors of RED, BLUE, and BLACK dyes by CC/PEI/PGDE. The results from SEM, EDS, BET, FT-IR, pHZPC and XPS confirm that hydrogen bond interactions and electrostatic attractions play crucial roles in facilitating dyes adsorption by CC/PEI/PGDE. It is expected that this work can bring forward a new perspective for the facile design of high-performance adsorbent for removing anionic dyes from wastewater.

Abstract
A magnetic adsorbent was synthesized by coupling magnetic nanoparticles, UiO-66-NH2 and 1-butyl-trimethylimidazole bromide ([BMIM][Br]) to chitosan (CS)-based composite conveniently. A series of modern characterizations were employed to assess its properties. The results showed that UiO-66-NH2 was uniformly distributed within the composite via in-situ growth, which can enhance the porosity obviously. The introduction of various ligands enables the composite to exhibit excellent extraction performance for four aflatoxins (AFs) through multiple interactions. The adsorption mechanism was elucidated and the main factors affecting extraction efficiency were evaluated. Under optimal conditions, the limits of detection (LODs) ranged from 0.08 to 0.56 μg/kg. The established method was successfully utilized to determine AFs from cereal samples (rice, glutinous rice, wheat, soybean, paddy, and corn) with satisfactory recovery of 77% ∼ 119% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 1.0% ∼ 11.7% (n = 5). The adsorbent demonstrated sufficient robustness for repeated use at least six times without obvious damage of extraction property.

Mechanochemical Synthesis of Cross-Linked Chitosan and Its Application as Adsorbent for Removal of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances from Simulated Electroplating Wastewater. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:3006. [PMID: 38930375 PMCID: PMC11205816 DOI: 10.3390/ma17123006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Chitosan is a promising adsorbent for removing a wide range of pollutants from wastewater. However, its practical application is hindered by instability in acidic environments, which significantly impairs its adsorption capacity and limits its utilization in water purification. While cross-linking can enhance the acid stability of chitosan, current solvent-based methods are often costly and environmentally unfriendly. In this study, a solvent-free mechanochemical process was developed using high-energy ball milling to cross-link chitosan with various polyanionic linkers, including dextran sulfate (DS), poly[4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid] (PSSM), and tripolyphosphate (TPP). The mechanochemically cross-linked (MCCL) chitosan products exhibited superior adsorption capacity and stability in acidic solutions compared to pristine chitosan. Chitosan cross-linked with DS (Cht-DS) showed the highest Reactive Red 2 (RR2) adsorption capacity, reaching 1559 mg·g-1 at pH 3, followed by Cht-PSSM (1352 mg·g-1) and Cht-TPP (1074 mg·g-1). The stability of MCCL chitosan was visually confirmed by the negligible mass loss of Cht-DS and Cht-PSSM tablets in pH 3 solution, unlike the complete dissolution of the pristine chitosan tablet. The MCCL significantly increased the microhardness of chitosan, with the order Cht-DS > Cht-PSSM > Cht-TPP, consistent with the RR2 adsorption capacity. When tested on simulated rinsing wastewater from chromium electroplating, Cht-DS effectively removed Cr(VI) (98.75% removal) and three per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (87.40-95.87% removal), following pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetics. This study demonstrates the potential of the cost-effective and scalable MCCL approach to produce chitosan-based adsorbents with enhanced stability, mechanical strength, and adsorption performance for treating highly acidic industrial wastewater containing a mixture of toxic pollutants.

Abstract
Among biopolymer-based adsorbents, composites in the form of beads have shown promising results in terms of high adsorption capacity and ease of separation from the effluents. This review addresses the potential of biopolymer-based beads to remediate wastewaters polluted with emerging organic contaminants, for instance dyes, active pharmaceutical ingredients, pesticides, phenols, oils, polyaromatic hydrocarbons, and polychlorinated biphenyls. High adsorption capacities up to 2541.76 mg g-1 for dyes, 392 mg g-1 for pesticides and phenols, 1890.3 mg g-1 for pharmaceuticals, and 537 g g-1 for oils and organic solvents have been reported. The review also attempted to convey to its readers the significance of wastewater treatment through adsorption by providing an overview on decontamination technologies of organic water contaminants. Various preparation methods of biopolymer-based gel beads and adsorption mechanisms involved in the process of decontamination have been summarized and analyzed. Therefore, we believe there is an urge to discuss the current state of the application of biopolymer-based gel beads for the adsorption of organic pollutants from wastewater and future perspectives in this regard since it is imperative to treat wastewater before releasing into freshwater bodies.

Abstract
In this study, a hydrothermal approach was employed to graft chitosan (Chit)/algae (ALG) with salicylaldehyde (SA), resulting in the synthesis of a biocomposite named salicylaldehyde-based chitosan Schiff base/algae (Chit-SA/ALG). The main objective of this biocomposite was to effectively remove methyl violet (MV), an organic dye, from aqueous solutions. The adsorption performance of Chit-SA/ALG toward MV was investigated in detail, considering the effects of three factors: (A) Chit-SA/ALG dose (ranging from 0.02 to 0.1 g/100 mL), (B) pH (ranging from 4 to 10), and (C) time (ranging from 10 to 120 min). The Box-Behnken design (BBD) was utilized for experimental design and analysis. The experimental results exhibited a good fit with both the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm, suggesting their suitability for describing the MV adsorption process on Chit-SA/ALG. The maximum adsorption capacity of Chit-SA/ALG, as calculated by the Langmuir model, was found to be 115.6 mg/g. The remarkable adsorption of MV onto Chit-SA/ALG can be primarily attributed to the electrostatic forces between Chit-SA/ALG and MV as well as the involvement of various interactions such as n-π, π-π, and H-bond interactions. This research demonstrates that Chit-SA/ALG exhibits promising potential as a highly efficient adsorbent for the removal of organic dyes from water systems.

Abstract
Water sources have become extremely scarce and contaminated by organic and inorganic industrial and agricultural pollutants as well as household wastes. Poisoning water resources by dyes and metals is a problem because contaminated water can leak into subsurface and surface sources, causing serious contamination and health problems. Therefore, developing wastewater treatment technologies is valuable. Today, hydrogels have attracted considerable attention owing to their broad applications. Hydrogels are polymeric network compositions with significant water-imbibing capacity. Hydrogels have potential applications in diverse fields such as biomedical, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and biosensors. They can be prepared by using natural (biopolymers) and synthetic polymers. Synthetic polymer-based hydrogels obtained from petrochemicals are not environmentally benign; thus, abundant plant-based polysaccharides are found as more suitable compounds for making biodegradable hydrogels. Polysaccharides with many advantages such as non-toxicity, biodegradability, availability, inexpensiveness, etc. are widely employed for the preparation of environmentally friendly hydrogels. Polysaccharides-based hydrogels containing chitin, chitosan, gum, starch (St), etc. are employed to remove pollutants, metals, and dyes. Among these, St has attracted a lot of attention. St can be mixed with other compounds to make hydrogels, which remove dyes and metal ions to variable degrees of efficiency. Although St has numerous advantages, it suffers from drawbacks such as low stability, low water solubility, and fast degradability in water which limit its application as an environmental adsorbent. As an effective way to overcome these weaknesses, various modification approaches to form starch-based hydrogels (SBHs) employing different compounds have been reported. The preparation methods and applications of SBH adsorbents in organic dyes, hazardous materials, and toxic ions elimination from water resources have been comprehensively discussed in this review.

Abstract
The exponential increase in the production and transportation of petroleum-derived products observed in recent years has been driven by the escalating demand for energy, textiles, plastic-based materials, and other goods derived from petroleum. Consequently, there has been a corresponding rise in spills of these petroleum derivatives, particularly in water sources utilized for transportation or, occasionally, illegally utilized for tank cleaning or industrial equipment maintenance. Numerous researchers have proposed highly effective techniques for detecting these products, aiming to facilitate their cleanup or containment and thereby minimize environmental pollution. However, many of these techniques rely on the identification of individual compounds, which presents significant drawbacks, including complexity of handling, subjectivity, lengthy analysis times, infeasibility for in situ analysis, and high costs. In response, there has been a notable surge in the utilization of sensors or generalized profiling techniques serving as sensors to generate characteristic fingerprints of these products, thereby circumventing the aforementioned disadvantages. This review comprehensively examines the evolution of techniques employed for detecting petroleum-derived products in water samples, along with their associated advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, the review examines current perspectives on methods for the removal and/or containment of these products from water sources, to minimize their environmental impact and the associated health repercussions on living organisms and ecosystems.

Abstract
Due to the expansion of industrial activities, the concentration of dyes in water has been increasing. The dire need to remove these pollutants from water has been heavily discussed. This study focuses on the reproducible and sustainable solution for wastewater treatment and dye annihilation challenges. Adsorption has been rated the most practical way of the several decolorization procedures due to its minimal initial investment, convenient utility, and high-performance caliber. Hydrogels, which are three-dimensional polymer networks, are notable because of their potential to regenerate, biodegrade, absorb bulky amounts of water, respond to stimuli, and have unique morphologies. Natural polysaccharide hydrogels are chosen over synthetic ones because they are robust, bioresorbable, non-toxic, and cheaply accessible. This study has covered six biopolymers, including chitosan, cellulose, pectin, sodium alginate, guar gum, and starch, consisting of their chemical architecture, origins, characteristics, and uses. The next part describes these polysaccharide-based hydrogels, including their manufacturing techniques, chemical alterations, and adsorption effectiveness. It is deeply evaluated how size and shape affect the adsorption rate, which has not been addressed in any prior research. To assist the readers in identifying areas for further research in this subject, limitations of these hydrogels and future views are provided in the conclusion.

Abstract
In this study, a new chitosan Schiff base with surface modification using citric acid was synthesized for efficient removal of pernicious dyes, namely Bismarck Brown R (BBR) and Rhodamine B (RhB), from wastewater. The physicochemical properties of the modified chitosan Schiff base were comprehensively investigated. Adsorption studies demonstrated that BBR adsorption occurred through monolayer formation, while RhB adsorption proceeded via multilayer formation on the heterogeneous surface. The synthesized adsorbent exhibited exceptional dye removal efficiency, with a Langmuir saturation capacity of 348 ± 11.0 mg.g-1 for BBR and 145 ± 18.44 mg.g-1 for RhB. Isotherm data fitting revealed consistency with the Langmuir isotherm model for BBR and the Freundlich isotherm model for RhB. Notably, the modified chitosan Schiff base showcased enhanced antibacterial properties, effectively inhibiting both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The study's findings underscore the potential of this novel chitosan-based Schiff base as an efficient adsorbent for the removal of various dyes from wastewater, emphasizing its versatility and practical applicability in water treatment processes.

Abstract
Novel chitosan polymers were synthesized using two cross-linkers, Glutaraldehyde and Terephthaldehyde, to enhance stability and efficiency. Characterization techniques (XRD, FTIR, FE-SEM, TGA, DTG, BJH, and BET) confirmed successful synthesis. These polymers were employed as adsorbents for removing Malachite Green (MG) and Congo Red (CR) dyes from water. Batch experiments and DFT calculations investigated the adsorption process, thermodynamics, and kinetics. Results showed the CSGT-III polymer achieved the highest removal efficiency. For initial dye concentrations ([CR]o = 50 mg/L, [MG]o = 20 mg/L) and adsorbent doses (0.8 g/L for CR, 0.4 g/L for MG), removal efficiencies were 96.99 % for CR and 99.07 % for MG. Thermodynamic analysis confirmed the spontaneous nature of adsorption, and the process was endothermic for both dyes. The Langmuir model fitted adsorption isotherms well, indicating a homogeneous surface. Kinetic analysis revealed a pseudo-second-order model for both dyes.

Abstract
Fe3+ complexed with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)-modified carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) named Fe-ACMC was synthesized by a one-step method at room temperature and pressure. The surface morphology and chemical structure of Fe-ACMC were characterized by SEM-EDS, XRD, BET, FT-IR, XPS, and ζ-potential. In batch adsorption, the optimum pH for arsenate [As(V)] adsorption onto Fe-ACMC was 3-9 with removal efficiency > 99%. The adsorption of As(V) could reach equilibrium within 25 min and the maximum adsorption capacity was 84.18 mg g-1. The pseudo-second-order model fitted well the kinetic data (R2 = 0.995), while the Freundlich model well described the adsorption isotherm of As(V) on Fe-ACMC (R2 = 0.979). The co-existing anions (NO3-, CO32-, and SO42-) exhibited a slight impact on the As(V) adsorption efficiency, whereas PO43- inhibited As(V) adsorption on Fe-ACMC. The real applicability of Fe-ACMC was achieved to remove ca. 10.0 mg L-1 of As(V) from natural waters to below 0.05 mg L-1. The regeneration and reuse of Fe-ACMC for As(V) adsorption were achieved by adding 0.2 mol L-1 HCl. The main adsorption mechanism of As(V) on Fe-ACMC was attributed to electrostatic attraction and inner-sphere complexation between -NH2···Fe3+ and As(V). In fixed-bed column adsorption, the Thomas model was the most suitable model to elucidate the dynamic adsorption behavior of As(V). The loading capacity of the Fe-ACMC packed column for As(V) was 47.04 mg g-1 at pH 7 with an initial concentration of 60 mg L-1, flow rate of 3 mL min-1, and bed height of 0.6 cm.

Abstract
Anthracene belongs to the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) consisting of benzene rings, unusually highly stable through more π-electrons and localized π-bond in entire rings. Aqueous-phase anthracene adsorption using carbon-based materials such as biochar is ineffective. In this paper, carbon dots (CDs) derived from the acid treatment of coconut shell biochar (CDs/MCSB) decorated with chitosan (CS) are successfully synthesized and applied for anthracene removal from aqueous solutions. The h-CDs/MCSB exhibited fast adsorption of anthracene with significant sorption capacity (Qmax = 49.26 mg g-1) with 95 % removal efficiency at 60 min. The study suggested chemisorption dominated monolayer anthracene adsorption onto h-CDs/MCSB, where a significant role was played by ion-exchange. Density Functional Theory (DFT) suggested the anthracene adsorption was dominated by the electrostatic interactions and delocalized electron, induced by higher polarizability of functional groups on the surface of hybrid CDs/MCSB assisted by chitosan (h-CDs/MCSB). In addition, the aromatic structure of CDs/MCSB and high polarizability of functional groups provided the strong interactions between benzene rings of anthracene and hybrid adsorbent-assisted multiple π-bond through delocalized π-bond and polarization-induced H-bond interactions. The presence of carboxylic and sulfonic groups on the CDs/MCSB surface also contributed to the effective adsorption of anthracene was confirmed by the fluorescence spectra. The results showed that the hybrid adsorbent was an effective material for removing PAHs, usually difficult to remove from water owing to the presence of benzene rings in their structures. Further, consistency in the DFT results suggested the outstanding binding capacity with the anthracene molecules with h-CDs/MCSB.

Abstract
Chitosan has excellent antimicrobial, adsorption, heavy metal removal, and adhesion properties, making it a good substitute for microplastic-based cleaners. Here, chitosan microbeads (chito-beads) of various sizes ranging from 32 μm to 283 μm were prepared via emulsion using a liquid on oil method and the feasibility of using them as an essential constituent in a chemical cleaning solution for a reverse-osmosis (RO) membrane-fouling-control process was assessed. Prior to the assessment the cleaning efficiency of a solution containing chito-beads, the interaction energy between chitosan and a representative organic foulant (humic acid (HA)) in a RO membrane fouling was analyzed using colloidal atomic force microscopy, and the strongest attraction between chitosan and HA was observed in an aqueous solution. When comparing the membrane cleaning efficiency of cleaning solutions with and without chito-beads, smaller chito-beads (32 μm and 70 μm) were found to have higher cleaning efficiency. Applications of chito-beads to the membrane cleaning process can enhance the cleaning efficiency through the physicochemical interaction with organic foulants. This study can widen the use of chito-beads as an additive to membrane chemical cleaning solutions to control membrane fouling in other membrane processes as well.

Abstract
A series of NH2-functionalized nano-sized magnetic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were prepared in this study for Cr(VI) removal from wastewater. It was observed that not only the morphological, i.e., orientation growth of N-doped and iron-based metal-organic frameworks, but also the adsorption of magnetic MOFs is largely related to the used amount of ammonium hydroxide in preparation. For example, with increasing amounts of ammonium hydroxide used in preparation, the morphology of magnetic MOFs changed from spherical to cube and triangular cone. Moreover, the maximum adsorption capacity of spherical-magnetic MOFs, cubic-magnetic MOFs and triangular cone-magnetic MOFs could be up to 204.08 mg/g, 232.56 mg/g and 270.27 mg/g, respectively. Under optimal conditions, the adsorption process of magnetic MOFs for Cr(VI) was consistent with the pseudo-second-order rate equation (R2 = 1) and Langmuir isotherm model (R2 > 0.99). Therefore, magnetic MOFs developed in this work offered a viable option for the removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater.

Abstract
Two eco-friendly and highly efficient adsorbents, namely brushite-chitosan (DCPD-CS), and monetite-chitosan (DCPA-CS) composites were synthesized via a simple and low-cost method and used for tetracycline (TTC) removal. The removal behavior of TTC onto the composite particles was studied considering various parameters, including contact time, pollutant concentration, and pH. The maximum TTC adsorption capacity was 138.56 and 112.48 mg/g for the DCPD-CS and DCPA-CS, respectively. Increasing the pH to 11 significantly enhanced the adsorption capacity to 223.84 mg/g for DCPD-CS and 205.92 mg/g for DCPA-CS. The antibiotic adsorption process was well-fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models. Electrostatic attractions, complexation, and hydrogen bonding are the main mechanisms governing the TTC removal process. Desorption tests demonstrated that the (NH4)2HPO4 solution was the most effective desorbing agent. The developed composites were more efficient than DCPD and DCPA reference samples and could be used as valuable adsorbents of TTC from contaminated wastewater.

Abstract
Herein, a natural material including chitosan (CTS) and algae (food-grade algae, FGA) was exploited to attain a bio-adsorbent (CTS/FGA) for enhanced methyl violet 2B dye removal. A study of the FGA loading into CTS matrix showed that the best mixing ratio between CTS and FGA to be used for the MV 2B removal was 50 %:50 % (CTS/FGA; 50:50 w/w). The present study employed the Box-Behnken design (RSM-BBD) to investigate the impact of three processing factors, namely CTS/FGA-(50:50) dose (0.02-0.1 g/100 mL), pH of solution (4-10), and contact time (5-15 min) on the decolorization rate of MV 2B dye. The results obtained from the equilibrium and kinetic experiments indicate that the adsorption of MV 2B dye on CTS/FGA-(50:50) follows the Langmuir and pseudo-second-order models, respectively. The CTS/FGA exhibits an adsorption capacity of 179.8 mg/g. The characterization of CTS/FGA-(50:50) involves the proposed mechanism of MV 2B adsorption, which primarily encompasses various interactions such as electrostatic forces, n-π stacking, and H-bonding. The present study demonstrates that CTS/FGA-(50:50) synthesized material exhibits a distinctive structure and excellent adsorption properties, thereby providing a viable option for the elimination of toxic cationic dyes from polluted water.

Abstract
The objective of this research is to conduct a comprehensive characterization of chitosan while also improving its attributes by crosslinking with malonic acid, with a focus on its efficacy in removing hexavalent chromium, arsenite and fluoride ions. Crosslinking chitosan in 1:0.5 mass ratio forming a film led to substantial enhancement in confiscation of these target pollutants. The characterization of the adsorbent involved several techniques, including FT-IR, TGA-DSC, SEM-EDX, XRD, and BET surface area analysis. In batch adsorption experiments, Chitosan-malonic acid (CMA) was employed to remove CrVI, AsIII and F- from aqueous solutions. These experiments were conducted while varying conditions such as pH, dosage, concentration, temperature, and time. Through the implementation of response surface methodology (RSM), parameters were optimized, resulting in over 95% removal of CrVI, AsIII and F- ions. The isotherm and kinetics data demonstrated a good fit with the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo second-order kinetics, respectively. According to the Langmuir isotherm, the maximum adsorption capacities on CMA for CrVI, AsIII and F- were determined to be 687.05 mg g-1, 26.72 mg g-1 and 51.38 mg g-1 respectively under optimum pH of 4.0, 7.0 and 5.0 respectively under ambient temperature of 303 K. Thermodynamic analysis indicated that the adsorption process was spontaneous and driven by enthalpy. The regenerability of the adsorbent was validated through five adsorption-desorption cycles, signifying its reusability. An assessment of the adsorbent's sustainability indicated an eco-friendly synthesis, as reflected by the low E-factor value of 0.0028.

Abstract
A composite of chitosan biopolymer with microalgae and commercial carbon-doped titanium dioxide (kronos) was modified by grafting an aromatic aldehyde (salicylaldehyde) in a hydrothermal process for the removal of brilliant green (BG) dye. The resulting Schiff's base Chitosan-Microalgae-TiO2 kronos/Salicylaldehyde (CsMaTk/S) material was characterised using various analytical methods (conclusive of physical properties using BET surface analysis method, elemental analysis, FTIR, SEM-EDX, XRD, XPS and point of zero charge). Box Behnken Design was utilised for the optimisation of the three input variables, i.e., adsorbent dose, pH of the media and contact time. The optimum conditions appointed by the optimisation process were further affirmed by the desirability test and employed in the equilibrium studies in batch mode and the results exhibited a better fit towards the pseudo-second-order kinetic model as well as Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 957.0 mg/g. Furthermore, the reusability study displayed the adsorptive performance of CsMaTk/S remains effective throughout five adsorption cycles. The possible interactions between the dye molecules and the surface of the adsorbent were derived based on the analyses performed and the electrostatic attractions, H-bonding, Yoshida-H bonding, π-π and n-π interactions are concluded to be the responsible forces in this adsorption process.

Abstract
In this study, an innovative approach utilizing betaine as a raw material was employed to effectively modify the surface of chitosan with quaternary ammonium groups. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR) characterization showed that the quaternary ammonium groups on betaine were successfully loaded on the chitosan surface. The effects of dosage, pH, initial perchlorate concentration, temperature and co-existing anions on the removal efficiency of perchlorate were investigated. The saturated adsorption capacity of CGQS was 35.41 mg/g under natural condition. The impact of initial perchlorate concentrations and column flow rates on the column adsorption experiments were investigated, as well as natural water tests. Sterilizing performance experiments of CGQS were carried out innovatively. Under the condition of initial concentration of 0.5 mg/L, 9 BV/h (bed volume per hour), the effluent natural water was up to standard (≤0.07 mg/L) with a treatment capacity of 210 BV/g, and the sterilizing rate of CGQS was up to 97.02%. The proposed adsorption mechanisms involved surface pore adsorption, electrostatic adsorption of quaternary ammonium groups, and ion exchange between chloride and perchlorate ions. The CGQS prepared in this work had great potential for treating trace perchlorate contamination in natural water.

Abstract
Rapid and efficient removal of environmental antibiotics is vital to curb bacterial resistance. Through rational precursors-oriented design, we attain the best Al2O3 absorbent by 500 °C calcination of ammonium aluminium carbonate hydroxide (AACH) precursor from NH4HCO3 route (AACH-NH4HCO3-500) for fast and efficient removal of tetracycline (TC) and other antibiotics from environmental waters including high-salinity wastewater. AACH-NH4HCO3-500 (0.25 g·L-1) can remove (69.92 ± 1.78)% of aqueous TC (0.025 g·L-1) within 5 min and (97.62 ± 2.75)% within 2 h, and the adsorption capacity is 444.4 mg·g-1, which is the highest qmax of TC for the 2 h-adsorptions among numerous adsorbents. AACH-NH4HCO3-500 has fine tolerance to the coexisting substances, and can be easily regenerated and reused, and has no harm even discarded. The relations among the synthetic methods, the structural features, and the adsorption functions of Al2O3 are disclosed through a systematic comparison of the commercial Al2O3 and different Al2O3 nanomaterials attained from three precursors produced by five different routes. The reasons behind the exceptional adsorption performance are discussed throughout. Our findings would facilitate the development of excellent adsorbents for removal of other pollutants.

Abstract
Currently, there is a growing interest in the use of natural materials in various fields of science, technology and environmental protection due to their availability, low-cost, non-toxicity and biodegradability. Chitosan, natural clay of local origin, montmorillonite, zeolite, cross-linking agents (epichlorohydrin, sodium tripolyphosphate, glutaraldehyde) and plasticisers (glycerol) were used to synthesise composites. The composites were characterised by attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), tested for their antibacterial activity and used in batch experiments to study the adsorption of caesium, cobalt and europium ions. The maximum capacities for adsorption of caesium, cobalt and europium on the composites were 1400 mg/g, 900 mg/g and 18 mg/g, respectively. The experimental data fit better the Langmuir isotherm model and indicate favourable monolayer adsorption of Cs+, Co2+ and Eu3+ at homogeneous sites of the composites. The experimental data were in better agreement with the pseudo-second-order non-linear kinetic model for most elements and adsorbents. Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system proved to be a practical tool with good performance and generalisation capability for predicting the adsorption capacity of composites for caesium, cobalt, and europium ions. It was found that the predicted data were very close to the experimental data.

Abstract
This work presents a novel, strong and efficient adsorbent (CS@TDI@EDTA@γ-AlO(OH)) prepared through the green process using three components, chitosan, BNPs and EDTA using amide and ester bridges. An eco-friendly and easy approach was used for the preparation of this novel adsorbent, the low cost, easy access to the used materials, and the simplicity of the preparation method are some of the interesting advantages of this work. Also, this prepared adsorbent was used as an adsorbent to remove diazinon organophosphate poison and tetracycline antibiotic from aqueous solutions. In order to confirm the prepared adsorbent structure, the CS@TDI@EDTA@γ-AlO(OH) composite was investigated by various analyses including FT-IR, EDX, XRD, FESEM and TGA. The adsorption behavior of the adsorbent prepared for the removal of tetracycline and diazinon was investigated under different conditions by varying the concentration, temperature, the adsorbent dose, pH and contact time. Based on various tests, the highest diazinon adsorption capacity was obtained for 0.12 g/L adsorbent at pH 7 and 60 °C with 40 mg/L initial concentration. Also, the maximum adsorption capacity of the tetracycline was obtained for 0.12 g/L adsorbent at pH 9 and 60 °C with 30 mg/L initial concentration. The equilibrium results for diazinon and for tetracycline were in good accordance with the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models, respectively. Also, the highest adsorption capacities for diazinon at pH 7 and tetracycline at pH 9 were 1428.5 and 555.5 mg/g, respectively. Also the kinetic investigations revealed that the correlation factor (R2) of pseudo-second-order model obtained for the adsorption of diazinon and tetracycline was 0.9986 and 0.9988, while the coefficient k (g/mg.min) was 0.000084 and 0.0033, respectively. These results indicate that the adsorption of diazinon and tetracycline is pseudo-second-order kinetics model. Formation of hydrogen bonds between adsorbate and adsorbent as well as the high specific surface area and porosity of the adsorbent are the main mechanisms that contribute to the adsorption process. In addition, thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption of diazinon and tetracycline is a spontaneous endothermic process. The adsorbent prepared in this work was expected to have wide range of applications in wastewater treatment thanks to its good reusability in water and strong removal of diazinon and tetracycline compared to other adsorbents.

Abstract
Chitosan derivatives with two different phenylcarbamate pendants at the 6-position and 2,3-positions of the glucosamine unit were synthesized by triphenylmethyl as a protective group. The regioselective chitosan derivatives were prepared corresponding to coated-type chiral packed materials (CPMs), which were evaluated with thirteen chiral compounds by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The regioselective chitosan derivatives (4aⅠ/4aⅡ, 4bⅠ/4bⅡ) bearing electron-withdrawing 3,5‑chloro or 4‑chloro at the 6-position can recognize 7 or 8 of the 13 enantiomers and achieve baseline separation for enantiomers 5 and 7. They exhibited better chiral recognition abilities than the other derivatives with different substituents at the 6-position and the same 3,5-dimethylphenyl substituent at the 2,3-postion. In comparison to Chit-1 featuring a 3,5-dimethylphenyl substituent at the 2,3- and 6-positions, it was observed that the combination of both an electron-withdrawing and an electron-donating substituent of the regioselective chitosan derivatives (4aⅠ/4aⅡ, 4bⅠ/4bⅡ) showed better or similar enantioseparation abilities for racemic Compounds 7 and 6, respectively. The molecular weight-performance relationship of the regioselective chitosan derivatives was investigated in detail. It was found that with increasing molecular weight, the derivatives 4aⅡ and 4bⅡ all possessed greater enantioseparation power for 4 enantiomers, such as enantiomers 4, 7, 11, and 15, than the corresponding derivatives with low molecular weights. The molecular docking simulation results showed that excellent enantioseparation power significantly depended on the combination and interaction of multiple factors, such as steric hindrance, and polarity of the substituents on the CPMs and enantiomers.

Abstract
For many years, chitosan has been widely regarded as a promising eco-friendly polymer thanks to its renewability, biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-toxicity, and ease of modification, giving it enormous potential for future development. As a cationic polysaccharide, chitosan exhibits specific physicochemical, biological, and mechanical properties that depend on factors such as its molecular weight and degree of deacetylation. Recently, there has been renewed interest surrounding chitosan derivatives and chitosan-based nanocomposites. This heightened attention is driven by the pursuit of enhancing efficiency and expanding the spectrum of chitosan applications. Chitosan's adaptability and unique properties make it a game-changer, promising significant contributions to industries ranging from healthcare to environmental remediation. This review presents an up-to-date overview of chitosan production sources and extraction methods, focusing on chitosan's physicochemical properties, including molecular weight, degree of deacetylation and solubility, as well as its antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant activities. In addition, we highlight the advantages of chitosan derivatives and biopolymer modification methods, with recent advances in the preparation of chitosan-based nanocomposites. Finally, the versatile applications of chitosan, whether in its native state, derived or incorporated into nanocomposites in various fields, such as the food industry, agriculture, the cosmetics industry, the pharmaceutical industry, medicine, and wastewater treatment, were discussed.

Abstract
DOTA@Sludge@Chitosan was synthesized by a facile treatment using DOTA (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N,N'-tetraacetic acid) to modify dry sludge and chitosan in an acidic solution. The performance of developed DOTA@Sludge@Chitosan was investigated for the adsorptive removal of Cr6+ and Pb2+ from water. Characterization studies showed that the materials possess a large surface area (52.009 m2/g), pore volume (0.069 cm3/g), and abundant functional groups of amino and hydroxyl. The prepared material showed a synergetic effect due to carboxylic acid and sludge, effectively removing Cr6+ and Pb2+. It reached 329.4 mg/g (Pb2+) and 273.3 mg/g (Cr6+) at 20 °C, much higher than commercial activated carbon. The regeneration of the adsorbent was tested for six adsorption and desorption cycles. The results demonstrate that the DOTA@Sludge@Chitosan adsorbent well-maintained high adsorption capacity attributed to its stability, making it a promising adsorbent for heavy metals removal from industrial effluent.

Abstract
Herein, a quadruple biomagnetic nanocomposite of cross-linked chitosan-ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether/organo-nanoclay (MCH-EGDE/ORNC) was designed for the uptake of remazol brilliant blue R (RBBR) dye from aqueous environment. The adsorption process was systematically improved via the Box-Behnken design (BBD) to determine the influence of key uptake parameters, including MCH-EGDE/ORNC dosage, pH, and time, on the RBBR removal. The highest RBBR removal of 87.5 % was achieved at the following conditions: MCH-EGDE/ORNC dosage: 0.1 g/100 mL; pH: 4.0; contact time: 25 min. The findings of the kinetics and equilibrium studies revealed an excellent fit to the pseudo-second order and the Freundlich models, respectively. The adsorption capacity of the MCH-EGDE/ORNC for RBBR was found to be 168.4 mg/g, showcasing its remarkable adsorption capability. The present work highlights the potential of MCH-EGDE/ORNC biomaterial as an advanced adsorbent and lays the foundation for future applications in water purification and environmental remediation.

Removal of aflatoxin B 1 from contaminated milk and water by nitrogen/carbon-enriched cobalt ferrite -chitosan nanosphere: RSM optimization, kinetic, and thermodynamic perspectives. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 256:127863. [PMID: 37952803 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127863] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023]
Abstract
In view of the feed/foods inevitably contaminated by toxic and carcinogenic aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), efficient mesoporous metformin-chitosan/silica‑cobalt ferrite nanospheres (Mt-CS/CFS NSs) was prepared to remove AFB1 from aqueous/non-aqueous media. The morphological, functional, and structural characteristics and adsorption properties of C/N-enriched CS/CFS were investigated systematically. The interactive operating variables (temperature (5.0-35 °C); time (10-100 min); AFB1 dose (50-100 μg/mL); and Mt-CS/CFS dosage (0.5-3.5 mg) were optimized via the Box-Behnken design (BBD), which demonstrated good agreement between the experimental data and proposed model. The adsorption efficiency in artificially contaminated cow's milk as well as aqueous environment reached over 91.0 % in a wide pH range (3.0-9.0), without significant change in the nutritional value of milk. Freundlich isotherm and second-order adsorption kinetics were regarded as the most suitable models to fit the adsorption results, and the adsorption rate is dominated by the intra-particle diffusion and boundary layer diffusion. Thermodynamic analyses proved that the process was spontaneous and exothermic. The adsorption mechanism could be explained as physisorption via hydrogen bonding, n-π interaction, and hydrophobic/hydrophilic interactions. The porous Mt-CS/CFS NS derived from chitosan nanoparticles is therefore outstanding adsorbent, offering great adsorptive performance and recycabilities, which impedes economic losses in the food industry.

Abstract
A cleaner and safer environment is one of the most important requirements in the future. It has become increasingly urgent and important to fabricate novel environmentally-friendly materials to remove various hazardous pollutants. Compared with traditional materials, chitosan is a more environmentally friendly material due to its abundance, biocompatibility, biodegradability, film-forming ability and hydrophilicity. As an abundant of -NH2 and -OH groups on chitosan molecular chain could chelate with all kinds of metal ions efficiently, chitosan-based materials hold great potential as a versatile supporting matrix for metal oxide nanomaterials (MONMs) (TiO2, ZnO, SnO2, Fe3O4, etc.). Recently, many chitosan/metal oxide nanomaterials (CS/MONMs) have been reported as adsorbents, photocatalysts, heterogeneous Fenton-like agents, and sensors for potential and practical applications in environmental remediation and monitoring. This review analyzed and summarized the recent advances in CS/MONMs composites, which will provide plentiful and meaningful information on the preparation and application of CS/MONMs composites for wastewater treatment and help researchers to better understand the potential of CS/MONMs composites for environmental remediation and monitoring. In addition, the challenges of CS/MONM have been proposed.

Magnetic perovskite nanohybrid based on g-C 3N 4 nanosheets for photodegradation of toxic environmental pollutants under short-time visible irradiation. Sci Rep 2023; 13:21323. [PMID: 38044342 PMCID: PMC10694144 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-48725-x] [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: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, a magnetic perovskite nanohybrid based on g-C3N4 (gCN) nanosheets was synthesized and developed for the efficient photodegradation of toxic environmental pollutants under short-time visible irradiation. The synthesis of this nanohybrid involved the incorporation of SrTiO3:N (STO:N) and ZnFe2O4 (ZnF) onto the g-C3N4 nanosheets through a simple reflux method. Our investigation encompassed a comprehensive suite of analytical techniques, including BET, TGA, TEM, SEM, EDX, DRS, VSM, XRD, photocurrent, and FT-IR, to elucidate the physicochemical characteristics of this nanocomposite in the context of its application in photodegradation processes. The nanohybrid displayed significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity compared to its individual components, achieving a degradation efficiency of over 90% for various pollutants, including organic dyes like Rhodamine B (Rh-B), within a short irradiation time. This enhanced activity can be attributed to the synergistic effect between gCN, STO:N, and ZnF, which promotes the generation of reactive oxygen species and facilitates the degradation process. Notably, the nanocomposite containing 20 wt% STO:N perovskite and 20 wt% ZnF demonstrated the highest Rh-B degradation rate under visible light irradiation within just 30 min. Furthermore, the nanohybrid displayed excellent stability and reusability over seven consecutive runs, retaining its high photocatalytic activity even after multiple cycles of degradation. This remarkable performance can be attributed to the strong interaction between the gCN nanosheets and the magnetic perovskite components, which prevents their aggregation and ensures their efficient utilization. Additionally, the nanohybrid exhibited excellent visible light absorption, enabling the utilization of a wider range of light for degradation. This feature is particularly advantageous, as visible light is more abundant in sunlight compared to UV light, rendering the nanohybrid suitable for practical applications under natural sunlight. In conclusion, the ternary gCN-STO:N@ZnF nanocomposite represents a promising candidate for the treatment of organic pollutants in aqueous environments, offering a versatile and efficient solution.

Abstract
Rhenium, a rare and critical metal, existing in the industrial wastewater has been aroused extensive interests recently, due to its environmental and resource issues. Chitosan, an easily available, low-cost and eco-friendly biopolymer, was prepared and modified by grafting primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary amino groups, respectively. Adsorption behaviors and interactions between ReO4- and these four types of aminated adsorbents were investigated through batch experiments, spectroscopic analysis, and theoretical computations. Chitosan modified with secondary amines showed an extremely high uptake of ReO4- with 742.0 mg g-1, which was higher than any reported adsorbents so far. Furthermore, a relatively high adsorption selectivity for Re(VII), as well as the stable and facile regeneration of these aminated adsorbents revealed a promising approach for Re(VII) recovery in full-scale applications. The electrostatic attraction was illustrated to be the main adsorption mechanism by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy analyses. Significantly, the sub-steps of the adsorption process, encompassing the transformation of binding sites and the subsequent binding between these sites and the adsorbate, have been thoroughly investigated through the density functional theory (DFT) calculation method. This approach was firstly proposed to clearly demonstrate the differences in Re(VII) adsorption behavior onto four types of aminated adsorbents, resulting the importance of not only strong binding energy but also an appropriate binding spatial environmental for effective Re(VII) adsorption.

Abstract
This study investigates the feasibility of spent tea waste extract (STWE) as a green modifying agent for the modification of chitosan adsorbent towards aspirin removal. Response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design was employed to find the optimal synthesis parameters (chitosan dosage, spent tea waste concentration, and impregnation time) for aspirin removal. The results revealed that the optimum conditions for preparing chitotea with 84.65% aspirin removal were 2.89 g of chitosan, 18.95 mg/mL of STWE, and 20.72 h of impregnation time. The surface chemistry and characteristics of chitosan were successfully altered and improved by STWE, as evidenced by FESEM, EDX, BET, and FTIR analysis. The adsorption data were best fitted to pseudo 2nd order, followed by chemisorption mechanisms. The maximum adsorption capacity of chitotea was 157.24 mg/g, as fitted by Langmuir, which is impressive for a green adsorbent with a simple synthesis method. Thermodynamic studies demonstrated the endothermic nature of aspirin adsorption onto chitotea.

Abstract
To address the imperative need for efficient removal of uranium-containing wastewater and mitigate radioactive contamination risks associated with nuclear energy, the development of materials with high removal efficiency and facile separation is crucial. This study designed and synthesised MnO2@chitosan (CTS) composite aerogel beads by in-situ growing δ-MnO2 on porous CTS aerogel beads. This approach not only mitigates the agglomeration of MnO2 nanospheres but also significantly enhances the porous structure and surface area of MnO2@CTS. These cost-effective and eco-friendly millimeter-scale spherical aerogels exhibited convenient separation properties after adsorption. These characteristics help mitigate the risk of equipment seam blockage and secondary pollution that are often associated with powdered adsorbents. Additionally, MnO2@CTS exhibited remarkable mechanical strength (stress approximately 0.55 MPa at 60 % strain), enabling rapid separation and easy regeneration while maintaining high adsorption performance even after five cycles. Significantly, MnO2@CTS exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity of 410.7 mg/g at pH 6 and 298 K, surpassing reported values for most CTS/MnO2-based adsorbents. The chemisorption process of U(VI) on MnO2@CTS followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Dubinin-Radushkevish models. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis further confirmed the reduction of U(VI) to U(V/IV). These findings highlight the substantial potential of MnO2@CTS aerogel beads for U(VI) removal from aqueous solutions, positioning them as a promising solution for addressing U(VI) contamination in wastewater.

Abstract
Amyloid nanofibrils (ANFs) are supramolecular polymers originally classified as pathological markers in various human degenerative diseases. However, in recent years, ANFs have garnered greater interest and are regarded as nature-based sustainable biomaterials in environmental science, material engineering, and nanotechnology. On a laboratory scale, ANFs can be produced from food proteins via protein unfolding, misfolding, and hydrolysis. Furthermore, ANFs have specific structural characteristics such as a high aspect ratio, good rigidity, chemical stability, and a controllable sequence. These properties make them a promising functional material in water decontamination research. As a result, the fabrication and application of ANFs and their composites in water purification have recently gained considerable attention. Despite the large amount of literature in this field, there is a lack of systematic review to assess the gap in using ANFs and their composites to remove contaminants from water. This review discusses significant advancements in design techniques as well as the physicochemical properties of ANFs-based composites. We also emphasize the current progress in using ANFs-based composites to remove inorganic, organic, and biological contaminants. The interaction mechanisms between ANFs-based composites and contaminants are also highlighted. Finally, we illustrate the challenges and opportunities associated with the future preparation and application of ANFs-based composites. We anticipate that this review will shed new light on the future design and use of ANFs-based composites.

Abstract
As a kind of scarce metal, palladium is widely used in many chemical industries. It essential to recover palladium from secondary resources, especially acidic media, owing to high content of palladium in secondary wastes and widespread extraction of palladium via strong acids. Chemically modified carbon materials not only have the advantage of activated carbon but also achieve the precise removal of specific pollutants, which is a kind of adsorption material with broad application prospects. In this direction, we report a solid carbon material named AT-C, which is obtained by one-step synthesis of 2-aminothiazoles grafted to the carbon surface by amidation. The present adsorbent delivers a high palladium adsorption capacity of 178.9 mg g-1, and desirable thermal and chemical stability. The uniform presence of abundant sulfur atoms and CO in the porous network enables AT-C to achieve selective absorption and rapid adsorption kinetics of Pd2+ in the complex water mixture containing many competing ions in the acidic pH range. For the strongly acidic leachates of catalysts, AT-C exhibits outstanding stability in cyclic experiments. Meanwhile, the fixed-bed column test indicates that 1076 bed volumes of the feeding streams can be effectively treated. In addition, AT-C exhibits superior adsorption selectivity, and the recovery efficiency of Pd2+ in actual industrial wastewater is 96.6%. This work realizes an efficient, rapid, and selective removal of palladium under acidic conditions, and provides a reference for complex industrial water treatment and resource recovery of precious metals.

Abstract
Iron is an important trace element in the body, and it will seriously affect the body's normal operation if it is taken too much or too little. A large number of patients around the world are suffering from iron disorders. However, there are many problems using drugs to treat iron overload and causing prolonged and unbearable suffering for patients. Controlling iron absorption and utilization through diet is becoming the acceptable, safe and healthy method. At present, many literatures have reported that polyphenols can interact with iron ions and can be expected to chelate iron ions, depending on their types and structures. Besides, polyphenols often interact with other macromolecules in the diet, which may complicate this phenols-Fe behavior and give rise to the necessity of building phenolic based biopolymer materials. The biopolymer materials, constructed by self-assembly (non-covalent) or chemical modification (covalent), show excellent properties such as good permeability, targeting, biocompatibility, and high chelation ability. It is believed that this review can greatly facilitate the development of polyphenols-based biopolymer materials construction for regulating iron and improving the well-being of patients.

Abstract
Enzymes with industrial significance are typically used in biological processes. However, instability, high sensitivity, and impractical recovery are the major drawbacks of enzymes in practical applications. In recent years, the immobilization technology has attracted wide attention to overcoming these restrictions and improving the efficiency of enzyme applications. Chitosan (CS) is a unique functional substance with biocompatibility, biodegradability, non-toxicity, and antibacterial properties. Chitosan composites are anticipated to be widely used in the near future for a variety of purposes, including as supports for enzyme immobilization, because of their advantages. Therefor this review explores the effects of the chitosan's structure, molecular weight, degree of deacetylation on the enzyme immobilized, effect of key factors, and the enzymes immobilized on chitosan based composites for numerous applications, including the fields of biosensor, biomedical science, food industry, environmental protection, and industrial production. Moreover, this study carefully investigates the advantages and disadvantages of using these composites as well as their potential in the future.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution in water bodies is a global concern. The prominent source of metal contamination in aqueous streams and groundwater is wastewater containing heavy metal ions. Elevated concentrations of heavy metals in water bodies can have a negative impact on water quality and public health. The most effective way to remove metal contaminants from drinking water is thought to be adsorption. A deacetylated derivative of chitin, chitosan, has a wide range of commercial uses since it is biocompatible, nontoxic, and biodegradable. Due to its exceptional adsorption behavior toward numerous hazardous heavy metals from aqueous solutions, chitosan and its modifications have drawn a lot of interest in recent years. Due to its remarkable adsorption behavior toward a range of dangerous heavy metals, chitosan is a possible agent for eliminating metals from aqueous solutions. The review has focused on the ideas of biosorption, its kinds, architectures, and characteristics, as well as using modified (physically and chemically modified) chitosan, blends, and composites to remove heavy metals from water. The main objective of the review is to describe the most important aspects of chitosan-based adsorbents that might be beneficial for enhancing the adsorption capabilities of modified chitosan and promoting the usage of this material in the removal of heavy metal pollutants.

Abstract
A molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) fabricated from a chitosan doped with graphite to create a conductive composite (CG-MIC) with the ability to trap and detect dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) through a change in resistance of the material has been successfully manufactured. The GC-MIC presented a maximum trapping capacity of 96 ppm (0.096 mg g-1) of DMMP. A similar non-imprinted composite made of chitosan-graphite (CG-NIC) had a surface adsorption of 48 ppm (0.048 mg g-1) of DMMP. The manufacturing process was tested for consistency and there were no significant differences in resistance between batches of CG-MIC before (around 450 Ω) and after (around 70 Ω) DMMP extraction, representing a homogeneous manufacturing process. Although Atomic Force Microscopy studies revealed that the graphite was not homogenously distributed throughout the chitosan matrix, the response was consistent. The changes in the concentration of DMMP within the self-sensing material, being proportional to those in gas concentration, could be followed by the changes in resistance. The inclusion of common interferents: Acetic acid, acetone, ethanol, ammonium hydroxide and 2-propanol, equivalent in concentration to the DMMP, caused a change in the resistance of the material but did not substantially affect the specific resistance response of the composite material. Based on this data, the CG-MIC could be used as a smart material with sensing capabilities to monitor trapping levels of DMMP.

Abstract
Nitrates level in water is a worldwide problem that represents a risk to the environment and people's health; efforts are currently devoted to the development and implementation of new biomaterials for their removal. In this study, chitosan (Ch) from shrimp waste and the related epichlorohydrin-modified crossover chitosan (Ch-EPI) were used to remove nitrates from aqueous solutions. The mechanism of selective nitrate removal was elucidated and validated by theoretical calculations. The physicochemical performance of Ch and Ch-EPI was investigated through the main parameters pH, adsorption capacity, contact time, initial nitrate concentration, coexisting anions, and temperature. The experimental data were fitted to widely used adsorption kinetic models and adsorption isotherms. The maximum percentage of nitrate adsorption was reached at an equilibrium pH of 4.0 at an adsorbent dose of 2.0 g/L after a contact time of 50 min. Competing anion experiments show that chloride and sulfate ions have minimal and maximal effects on nitrate adsorption by Ch-EPI. Experimental adsorption data are best fitted to pseudo-second-order kinetic and isothermal Langmuir models. The maximum adsorption capacities of Ch and Ch-EPI for nitrate removal were 12.0 mg/g and 38 mg/g, respectively.

Abstract
Herein, a novel nanohybrid composite of magnetic chitosan-salicylaldehyde/nanoclay (MCH-SAL/NCLA) was hydrothermally synthesized for removal of azo dye (acid red 88, AR88) from simulated wastewater. Response surface methodology combined with the Box-Behnken design (RSM-BBD) was applied with 29 experiments to assess the impact of adsorption variables, that include A: % NCLA loading (0-50), B: MCH-SAL/NCLA dose (0.02-0.1 g/100 mL), C: pH (4-10), and time D: (10-90 min) on AR88 dye adsorption. The highest AR88 removal (75.16 %) as per desirability function was attained at the optimum conditions (NCLA loading = 41.8 %, dosage = 0.06 g/100 mL, solution pH = 4, and time = 86. 17 min). The kinetic and equilibrium adsorption results of AR88 by MCH-SAL/NCLA reveal that the process follows the pseudo-first-order and Temkin models. The MCH-SAL/NCLA composite has a maximum adsorption capacity (173.5 mg/g) with the AR88 dye. The adsorption of AR88 onto the MCH-SAL/NCLA surface is determined by a variety of processes, including electrostatic, hydrogen bonding, n-π, and n-π interactions. This research revealed that MCH-SAL/NCLA can be used as a versatile and efficient bio-adsorbent for azo dye removal from contaminated wastewater.

Abstract
In this study, we synthesized nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) with remarkable photodynamic antibacterial properties by a hydrothermal method. The composite film was prepared by solvent casting method, compounding N-CDs with chitosan (CS). The morphology and structure of the films were analyzed by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM) techniques. The films' mechanical, barrier, thermal stability, and antibacterial properties were analyzed. A preservation test of the films was studied on the samples of pork, volatile base nitrogen (TVB-N), total viable count (TVC), and pH were determined. Besides, the effect of film on the preservation of blueberries was observed. The study found that, compared with the CS film, the CS/N-CDs composite film is strong and flexible, with good UV light barrier performance. The prepared CS/7 % N-CDs composites showed high photodynamic antibacterial rates of 91.2 % and 99.9 % for E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. In the preservation of pork, it was found that its pH, TVB-N, and TVC indicators were significantly lower. The extent of mold contamination and anthocyanin loss was less in the CS/3 % N-CDs composite film-coated group, which could greatly extend the shelf life of food.

Abstract
This work aims to apply the use of food-grade algae (FGA) composited with chitosan-benzaldehyde Schiff base biopolymer (CHA-BD) as a new adsorbent (CHA-BA/FGA) for methyl violet 2B (MV 2B) dye removal from aqueous solutions. The effect of three processing variables, including CHA-BA/FGA dosage (0.02-0.1 g/100 mL), pH solution (4-10), and contact duration (10-120 min) on the removal of MV 2B was investigated using the Box-Behnken design (BBD) model. Kinetic and equilibrium dye adsorption profiles reveal that the uptake of MV 2B dye by CHA-BA/FGA is described by the pseudo-second kinetics and the Langmuir models. The thermodynamics of the adsorption process (ΔG°, ΔH°, and ΔS°) reveal spontaneous and favorable adsorption parameters of MV 2B dye onto the CHA-BA/FGA biocomposite at ambient conditions. The CHA-BA/FGA exhibited the maximum ability to absorb MV 2B of 126.51 mg/g (operating conditions: CHA-BA/FGA dose = 0.09 g/100 mL, solution pH = 8.68, and temperature = 25 °C). Various interactions, including H-bonding, electrostatic forces, π-π stacking, and n-π stacking provide an account of the hypothesized mechanism of MV 2B adsorption onto the surface of CHA-BA/FGA. This research reveals that CHA-BA/FGA with its unique biocomposite structure and favorable adsorption properties can be used to remove harmful cationic dyes from wastewater.

Abstract
The current challenges in the food packaging field are, on one side, replacing plastic from non-renewable sources with biopolymers and, on the other hand, generating a packaging material with attractive properties for the consumer. Currently, the consumer is ecologically concerned; the food packaging industry must think ahead to satisfy their needs. In this context, the utilization of polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) in this industry presents itself as an excellent candidate for fulfilling these requirements. PECs possess enticing characteristics such as encapsulation, protection, and transportation, among others. On the other hand, diverse types of biopolymers have been used in the formation of PECs, such as alginate, cellulose, gelatin, collagen, and so on. Hence, this paper reviews the use of PECs in food packaging where chitosan forms polyelectrolyte complexes.

Abstract
Goethite was modified by chitosan (CS) or poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) to improve its adsorptive abilities toward components of agrochemicals, i.e., copper ions (Cu), phosphate ions (P), and diuron. The pristine goethite effectively bound Cu (7.68 mg/g, 63.71%) and P (6.31 mg/g, 50.46%) only in their mixed systems. In the one adsorbate solutions, the adsorption levels accounted for 3.82 mg/g (30.57%) for Cu, 3.22 mg/g (25.74%) for P, and 0.15 mg/g (12.15%) for diuron. Goethite modification with CS or PAA did not yield spectacular results in adsorption. The maximum increase in adsorbed amount was noted for Cu ions (8.28%) after PAA modification as well as for P (6.02%) and diuron (24.04%) after CS modification. Both goethite modifications contributed to clear reduction in desorption of pollutants (even by 20.26% for Cu after PAA coating), which was mainly dictated by electrostatic attractive forces and hydrogen bonds formation occurring between macromolecules and impurities. The only exception in this phenomenon was Cu desorption from CS-modified solid-the polymer made it higher (to 95.00%). The Cu adsorption on PAA-modified goethite enhanced solid aggregation and thus facilitated metal cation separation from aqueous media. Consequently, the goethite modification with PAA was considered more promising for environmental remediation.

Hingrajiya RD, Patel MP. Fe 3O 4 modified chitosan based co-polymeric magnetic composite hydrogel: Synthesis, characterization and evaluation for the removal of methylene blue from aqueous solutions. Int J Biol Macromol 2023:125251. [PMID: 37307972 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125251] [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: 03/01/2023] [Revised: 05/28/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The present research comprises the fabrication of magnetic Fe3O4 incorporated chitosan grafted acrylamide and N-vinylimidazole composite hydrogels (CANFe-1 to CANFe-7) via water mediated free radical polymerization technique using ammonium persulfate/tetramethyl ethylenediamine as initiator. The prepared magnetic composite hydrogel was characterized by FT-IR, TGA, SEM, XRD, and VSM analysis. A swelling study was performed to understand the swelling behavior and found CANFe-4 to be more efficient with maximum swelling hence entire removal studies were performed with CANFe-4. pHPZC analysis was performed to determine pH sensitive adsorptive removal of cationic dye (methylene blue). pH dependent adsorption of methylene blue was dominant at pH = 8 with a maximum adsorption capacity of 860 mg/g. After the adsorptive removal of methylene blue from aqueous media, a composite hydrogel can conveniently be separated from the solution with the use of an external magnet. Adsorption of methylene blue is well explained with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and Pseudo-Second-Order kinetic model that validates chemisorption. Moreover, it was found that CANFe-4 could be frequently applied for the adsorptive removal of methylene blue for 5 consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles with 92.4 % removal efficiency. Hence, CANFe-4 offers a promising recyclable, sustainable, robust, and efficient adsorbent for wastewater treatment.

[PMID: 37372538 DOI: 10.3390/foods12122327] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/24/2023] [Revised: 06/02/2023] [Accepted: 06/06/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Naringin (NG), a natural flavanone glycoside, possesses a multitude of pharmacological properties, encompassing anti-inflammatory, sedative, antioxidant, anticancer, anti-osteoporosis, and lipid-lowering functions, and serves as a facilitator for the absorption of other drugs. Despite these powerful qualities, NG's limited solubility and bioavailability primarily undermine its therapeutic potential. Consequently, innovative solubilization methodologies have received considerable attention, propelling a surge of scholarly investigation in this arena. Among the most promising solutions is the enhancement of NG's solubility and physiological activity without compromising its inherent active structure, therefore enabling the formulation of non-toxic and benign human body preparations. This article delivers a comprehensive overview of NG and its physiological activities, particularly emphasizing the impacts of structural modification, solid dispersions (SDs), inclusion compound, polymeric micelle, liposomes, and nanoparticles on NG solubilization. By synthesizing current research, this research elucidates the bioavailability of NG, broadens its clinical applicability, and paves the way for further exploration and expansion of its application spectrum.
