Ding W, Sun H, Li X, Li Y, Jia H, Luo Y, She D, Geng Z. Environmental applications of lignin-based hydrogels for Cu remediation in water and soil: adsorption mechanisms and passivation effects. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 250:118442. [PMID: 38368919 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118442] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 02/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
Heavy metal pollution, particularly the excessive release of copper (Cu), is an urgent environmental concern. In this study, sodium lignosulfonate/carboxymethyl sa-son seed gum (SL-Cg-g-PAA) designed for remediation of Cu-contaminated water and soil was successfully synthesized through a free radical polymerization method using lignin as a raw material. This hydrogel exhibits remarkable Cu adsorption capability when applied to water, with a maximum adsorption capacity reaching 172.41 mg/g. Important adsorption mechanisms include surface complexation and electrostatic attraction between Cu(Ⅱ) and oxygen-containing functional groups (-OH, -COOH), as well as cation exchange involving -COONa and -SO3Na. Furthermore, SL/Cg-g-PAA effectively mitigated the bioavailability of heavy metals within soil matrices, as evidenced by a notable 14.1% reduction in DTPA extracted state Cu (DTPA-Cu) content in the S4 treatment (0.7% SL/Cg-g-PAA) compared to the control group. Concurrently, the Cu content in both the leaves and roots of pakchoi exhibited substantial decreases of 55.19% and 36.49%, respectively. These effects can be attributed to the precipitation and complexation reactions facilitated by the hydrogel. In summary, this composite hydrogel is highly promising for effective remediation of heavy metal pollution in water and soil, with a particular capability for the immobilization of Cu(Ⅱ) and reduction of its adverse effects on ecosystems.

Abstract
Lignin has been overlooked and used as a waste for long due to its complex and partially hydrophobic structure. Many efforts have been carried out to overcome these deficiencies and apply it as a high-value product, which are insufficient to reach the full potential of lignin in various advanced applications, since they require with procedures for the obtaining of more specific and fine-tuned chemical structures. This work focuses on the obtaining of differently structured hydrophilic lignins derived both from Kraft and organosolv isolation processes. The chemical structures of the different lignin types were studied, and the effect of the structural differences in the modification processes and their subsequent properties analyzed, valorizing their potential application for diverse purposes. The carboxymethylation and sulfomethylation reactions were carried out with the aim of enhancing the polarity of the lignin samples, while the methylation reaction aimed to obtain lignins with higher stability. The physicochemical analyses of the samples, carried out by FTIR, GPC, 31P NMR, 13C NMR, and HSQC NMR, verified the effectiveness of the chemical reactions and conditions selected, obtaining lignins with lower hydroxyl content, due to their substitution and insertion of carboxymetyl, sulfomethyl and methyl groups, therefore obtaining more condensed, aromatic and oxygenated aromatic carbon structures. While the methylation reaction was the most efficient in substituting the OH groups, due to its non-selectivity, OL showed higher modification yields than KL. In terms of the thermal and morphological properties, analyzed by DLS and TGA respectively, it was observed that the modified samples showed lower Z potential values, along with higher conductivity, being the sulfomethylated organosolv lignin the one showing the best results, which was also the one with the smallest particle size and polydispersity index. Finally, all the modified samples showed higher T50% values, suggesting a better stability towards degradation.

Abstract
Rapid industrialization has led to an increase in cadmium pollution, a dangerously toxic heavy metal. Cadmium (Cd) is released into the environment through industrial processes and can contaminate air, water, and soil. This pollution poses a significant risk to human health and has become a pressing concern in many industrialized areas. Due to its extended half-life, it leads to a range of health problems, including hepato-nephritic toxicity, brain damage, and degenerative bone disorders. Intoxication alters various intracellular parameters, leading to inflammation, tissue injury, and oxidative stress within cells, which disrupts normal cellular functions and can eventually result in cell death. It has also been linked to the development of bone diseases such as osteoporosis. These adverse effects highlight the urgent need to address cadmium pollution and find effective solutions to mitigate its impact on human health. This article highlights the Cd-induced risks and the role of Catharanthus roseus (C. roseus) extract as a source of alternative medicine in alleviating the symptoms. Numerous herbal remedies often contain certain bioactive substances, such as polyphenols and alkaloids, which have the power to mitigate these adverse effects by acting as antioxidants and lowering oxidative cell damage. Research conducted in the field of alternative medicine has revealed its enormous potential to meet demands that may be effectively used in safeguarding humans and their environment. The point of this review is to investigate whether C. roseus extract, known for its bioactive substances, is being investigated for its potential to mitigate the harmful effects of cadmium on health. Further investigation is needed to fully understand its effectiveness. Moreover, it is important to explore the potential environmental benefits of using C. roseus extract to reduce the negative effects of Cd. This review conducted in the field of alternative medicine has revealed its enormous potential to meet demands that could have significant implications for both human health and environmental sustainability.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 247:125809.

Abstract
The use of lignin carbon as an adsorbent for the adsorption of phosphates from wastewater is a promising technology. However, most lignin carbon-based adsorbents still suffer from low adsorption efficiency and poor selectivity. Herein, a novel FeLaO3-modified sulfomethylated lignin (SL) biochar adsorbent (FLO@CSL) was prepared for phosphate removal. The development of this adsorbent took into consideration the strong affinity of lanthanum (La) and iron (Fe) (hydro) oxides for phosphate and the excellent carrier properties of lignin-based biochar. As the core of FLO@CSL, FeLaO3 active sites are highly dispersed on the surface of SL biochar. Besides, doping of Fe(III) not only imparts magnetic properties to FLO@CSL, thereby effectively improving the separation efficiency of the adsorbent, but also enhances the phosphate adsorption performance. Performance studies revealed that FLO@CSL exhibits remarkable adsorption selectivity and substantial phosphate-adsorption capacity. Notably, the maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 137.14 mg P g-1. Phosphate adsorption on the FLO@CSL surfaces proceeds via chemisorption in a single layer, and ligand exchange plays an important role in determining the adsorption behaviour. Because of its exceptional selectivity, remarkable adsorption capacity and outstanding magnetic separation efficiency, FLO@CSL is a highly promising adsorbent material for effectively treating phosphates in wastewater.

Abstract
It is a great challenge to develop an effective super-sensitive capture method for multiplex heavy metal ions (HMIs), because HMIs is extremely toxic to public health and the environment, what's more their contamination is usually multiplex ions pollution. In this work, a 3D high-porous conductive polymer hydrogel was designed and prepared with high-stable and easy mass production, which is very favorable for the industrialization. The polymer hydrogel (g-C3N4-P(Ani-Py)-PAAM) was formed from the mixture of aniline pyrrole copolymer and acrylamide cross-linked with phytic acid as dopant and cross-linker and integrated with g-C3N4. The 3D networked high-porous hydrogel not only exhibits excellent electrical conductivity, but also provides a large surface area for increasing the number of immobilized ions. Importantly, the 3D high-porous conductive polymer hydrogel was applied successfully in electrochemical multiplex sensing of HIMs. The prepared sensor used differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry exhibited high sensitivities, low detection limit and wide detection ranges for Cd2+, Pb2+, Hg2+ and Cu2+, respectively. Moreover, the sensor showed a high accuracy in lake water test. The preparation and application of the hydrogel in electrochemical sensor provided an availability strategy to capture and detect the various HMIs by electrochemistry in solution and has great commercial application prospect.

Abstract
Low-cost and reliable wastewater treatment is a relevant issue worldwide to reduce the concentration of environmental pollutants. Industrial effluents containing dyes, heavy metals, and other inorganic and organic compounds can pollute water resources; therefore, novel technologies are required to mitigate and control their release into the environment. Adsorption is one of the simplest methods for treating contaminated water in which a wide spectrum of adsorbents can be used to remove emerging compounds. Hydrogels are interesting materials with high adsorption capacities that can be synthesized via green routes. These adsorbents are promising for large-scale industrial wastewater treatment applications; however, gaps still exist in achieving sustainable commercial implementation. This review focuses on the discussion and analysis of preparation, characterization, and adsorption properties of hydrogels for water purification. The advantages of these polymeric materials for water treatment were analyzed, including their performance in the removal of different organic and inorganic contaminants. Recent advances in the functionalization of hydrogels and the synthesis of novel composites have also been described. The adsorption capacities of hydrogel-based adsorbents are higher than 500 mg/g for different organic and inorganic pollutants, and can reach values of up to >2000 mg/g for organic compounds, significantly outperforming other materials reported for water cleaning. The main interactions involved in the adsorption of water pollutants using hydrogel-based adsorbents were described and explained to allow the interpretation of their removal mechanisms. The current challenges in the implementation of hydrogels for water purification in real-life operations are also highlighted. This review provides an updated picture of hydrogels as interesting materials to address water depollution worldwide.

Abstract
Heavy metal contamination of water sources has emerged as a major global environmental concern, threatening both aquatic ecosystems and human health. Heavy metal pollution in the aquatic environment is on the rise due to industrialization, climate change, and urbanization. Sources of pollution include mining waste, landfill leachates, municipal and industrial wastewater, urban runoff, and natural phenomena such as volcanic eruptions, weathering, and rock abrasion. Heavy metal ions are toxic, potentially carcinogenic, and can bioaccumulate in biological systems. Heavy metals can cause harm to various organs, including the neurological system, liver, lungs, kidneys, stomach, skin, and reproductive systems, even at low exposure levels. Efforts to find efficient methods to remove heavy metals from wastewater have increased in recent years. Although some approaches can effectively remove heavy metal contaminants, their high preparation and usage costs may limit their practical applications. Many review articles have been published on the toxicity and treatment methods for removing heavy metals from wastewater. This review focuses on the main sources of heavy metal pollution, their biological and chemical transformation, toxicological impacts on the environment, and harmful effects on the ecosystem. It also examines recent advances in cost-effective and efficient techniques for removing heavy metals from wastewater, such as physicochemical adsorption using biochar and natural zeolite ion exchangers, as well as decomposition of heavy metal complexes through advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). Finally, the advantages, practical applications, and future potential of these techniques are discussed, along with any challenges and limitations that must be considered.

Abstract
Chitosan is a kind of natural polysaccharide biomass with the second highest content in nature after cellulose, which has good biological properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, hemostasis, mucosal adsorption, non-toxicity, and antibacterial properties. Therefore, hydrogels prepared from chitosan have the advantages of good hydrophilicity, unique three-dimensional network structure, and good biocompatibility, so they have received extensive attention and research in environmental testing, adsorption, medical materials, and catalytic supports. Compared with traditional polymer hydrogels, biomass chitosan-based hydrogels have advantages such as low toxicity, excellent biocompatibility, outstanding processability, and low cost. This paper reviews the preparation of various chitosan-based hydrogels using chitosan as raw material and their applications in the fields of medical materials, environmental detection, catalytic carriers, and adsorption. Some views and prospects are put forward for the future research and development of chitosan-based hydrogels, and it is believed that chitosan-based hydrogels will be able to obtain more valuable applications.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 448:130988.

Abstract
Developing the lignin-based functional materials for uranium uptake is extremely attractive, but challenging due to the complex structure, poor solubility and reactivity of lignin. Herein, a novel phosphorylated lignin (LP)/sodium alginate/ carboxylated carbon nanotube (CCNT) composite aerogel (LP@AC) with vertically oriented lamellar configuration was created for efficient uranium uptake from acidic wastewater. The successful phosphorylation of lignin by a facile solvent-free mechanochemical method achieved more than six-times enhancement in U(VI) uptake capacity of lignin. While, the incorporation of CCNT not only increased the specific surface area of LP@AC, but also improved its mechanical strength as a reinforcing phase. More importantly, the synergies between LP and CCNT components endowed LP@AC with an excellent photothermal performance, resulting in a local heat environment on LP@AC and further boosting the U(VI) uptake. Consequently, the light irradiated LP@AC exhibited an ultrahigh U(VI) uptake capacity (1308.87 mg g-1), 61.26% higher than that under dark condition, excellent adsorptive selectivity and reusability. After exposure to 10 L of simulated wastewater, above 98.21% of U(VI) ions could be rapidly captured by LP@AC under light irradiation, revealing the tremendous feasibility in industrial application. The electrostatic attraction and coordination interaction were considered as the main mechanism for U(VI) uptake.

The treatment of polluted water is a serious environmental problem in the world. Biomass is easily modified and can be prepared into adsorbent materials, which is expected to solve the problem of heavy metal ion adsorption in sewage. In this paper, esterified tobacco straw based hydrogels (ETS-PAA) were synthesized from waste tobacco straw biomass. The structure and thermal stability of these hydrogels were characterized by FTIR, SEM, EDS, XPS and TG. The adsorption of metal ions by the hydrogel was measured by ICP-MS. The effects of initial ion concentration, adsorption time, pH, and temperature on the heavy metal adsorption were investigated. The results showed that ETS-PAA possessed more pores, which led to a better adsorption capacity. The maximum adsorption amounts of Pb2+, Cu2+ and Cd2+ were 2.41 mmol·g-1, 1.93 mmol·g-1 and 1.77 mmol·g-1, respectively. Finally, the adsorption mechanism and kinetics were analyzed. The adsorption was mainly accomplished by ion exchange of -COOK on the monomer chain with heavy metal ions, coordination of -OH and -CONH with heavy metal ions and interaction of ester bond, -COOH with heavy metal ions. The adsorption process was in accordance with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Freundlich model. The adsorption process belonged to multilayer chemisorption. This work shows that ETS-PAA was a promising material for the removal of heavy metal pollutants from aqueous solution.

Abstract
Multifunctional lignin bio-based adsorbent, b-LMS, was obtained via inverse copolymerization in the suspension of acryloyl modified kraft lignin (KfL-AA) and bio-based trimethylolpropane triacrylate (bio-TMPTA). Morphological and structural characterization of KfL-AA and b-LMS was performed using BET, FTIR, Raman, NMR, TGA, SEM, and XPS techniques. The b-LMS microspheres with 253 ± 42 μm diameters, 69.4 m2 g-1 surface area, and 59% porosity efficiently adsorb Malachite Green (MG), Tartrazine (T), and Methyl Red (MR) dye. The influence of pH, pollutant concentration, temperature, and time on the removal efficiency was studied in a batch mode. Favorable and spontaneous processes with high adsorption capacities e.g. 116.8 mg g-1 for MG, 86.8 mg g-1 for T, and 68.6 mg g-1 for MR indicate the significant adsorptive potential of b-LMS. Results from diffusional and single mass transfer resistance studies indicate that pore diffusion is a rate-limiting step. Theoretical calculations confirmed a higher affinity of b-LMS to cationic dye MG compared with an anionic and neutral one, i.e. T and MR, respectively. The data fitting from a flow system, using semi-empirical equations and Pore Surface Diffusion Modelling (PSDM) provided breakthrough point determination. The results from the desorption and competitive adsorption study proved the exceptional performance of b-LMS. Moreover, sulfation of b-LMS, i.e.production of b-LMS-OSO3H, introduced high-affinity sulfate groups with respect to cationic dye and cations. Developed methodology implements the principle of sustainable development and offers concept whose results contribute to the minimization of environmental pollution.

Abstract
In this paper, we successfully synthesized a fluorescent hybrid material (f-Silica gel) for the removal and recognition of cations. A Bodipy derivative was used as a source of fluorescent material. The characterization of Bodipy derivative and the modified surfaces were performed by some techniques like NMR, XRD, SEM, and FT-IR. The spectroscopic studies (complex stoichiometry, pH effect, response time) were carried out with fluorescence spectroscopy for the sensitive and selective recognition of Cu (II) ions. The LOD (limit of detection) was calculated as 4.63 μM and the most optimum response time was determined as 25 min. Moreover, the complex interaction between f-Silica gel and Cu (II) ions stables generally in the range of pH: 1-12. f-Silica gel can be also used as a solid support surface to remove Cu (II) ions from the wastewater. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms of Cu (II) on the f-Silica gel were determined with several parameters such as the amount of adsorbent, temperature, and pH. Langmuir adsorption isotherm model was performed for the adsorption of Cu (II) ions and the maximum capacity was found to be 19. 920 mg/g. The kinetic data ensured that the R2 value was obtained as 0.9941 from the kinetic model (pseudo-second-order). Thus, it is very close to the desired value (1) and the value of qe(expe) is very close to the value of qe(calc). The thermodynamic results support the spontaneous, random, and endothermic adsorption process. All results indicated that the hybrid material can be used as both a sensor and an adsorbent for the detection and removal of Cu (II) ions in environmental processes.

Abstract
Hydrogel is a type of crosslinked three-dimensional polymer network structure gel. It can swell and hold a large amount of water but does not dissolve. It is an excellent membrane material for ion transportation. As transport channels, the chemical structure of hydrogel can be regulated by molecular design, and its three-dimensional structure can be controlled according to the degree of crosslinking. In this review, our prime focus has been on ion transport-related applications based on hydrogel materials. We have briefly elaborated the origin and source of hydrogel materials and summarized the crosslinking mechanisms involved in matrix network construction and the different spatial network structures. Hydrogel structure and the remarkable performance features such as microporosity, ion carrying capability, water holding capacity, and responsiveness to stimuli such as pH, light, temperature, electricity, and magnetic field are discussed. Moreover, emphasis has been made on the application of hydrogels in water purification, energy storage, sensing, and salinity gradient energy conversion. Finally, the prospects and challenges related to hydrogel fabrication and applications are summarized.

Abstract
The development of green materials, especially the preparation of high-performance conductive hydrogels from biodegradable biomass materials, is of great importance and has received worldwide attention. As an aromatic polymer found in many natural biomass resources, lignin has the advantage of being renewable, biodegradable, non-toxic, widely available, and inexpensive. The unique physicochemical properties of lignin, such as the presence of hydroxyl, carboxyl, and sulfonate groups, make it promising for use in composite conductive hydrogels. In this review, the source, structure, and reaction characteristics of industrial lignin are provided. Description of the preparation method (physical and chemical strategies) of lignin-based conductive hydrogel is elaborated along with their several important properties, such as electrical conductivity, mechanical properties, and porous structure. Furthermore, we provide insights into the latest research advances in industrial lignin conductive hydrogels, including biosensors, strain sensors, flexible energy storage devices, and other emerging applications. Finally, the prospects and challenges for the development of lignin-conductive hydrogels are presented.

Abstract
The rationally-designed lignocellulose valorization that promotes a novel "waste-treats-pollutant" standpoint is highly desired yet still challenging for the spread of biomass industry. At this point, a cascade technique with the assistance of deep eutectic solvent (DES) fractionation is tailored to dually valorize wheat straw into fluorescent lignin carbon dots (LCDs) and bimetallic Mg-Fe oxide-decorated biochar (MBC) via solvothermal engineering and co-precipitation/pyrolysis respectively. Benefitting from the abundance of β-aryl ether and hydroxyl groups in DES-extracted lignin, the photoluminescence LCDs emit blue color in a wide excitation span, which can be adopted to selectively detect ferric ions (Fe3+) in a broad dosage scale with a highly linear correlation of 10-50 μM. Taking advantages of the MBC-aided persulfate activation, we propose the efficient arbidol removal system with a universal concentration of 20-200 ppm in the scalable pH ranging from 3 to 11. The dominate migration pathways involving with active oxygen species and surface electron transfer are comprehensively studied via electron paramagnetic resonance, radical-quenching experiments, and theoretical arithmetic. With the endeavor of biorefineries, this full-scale platform ignites the dazzling wildfire from dual lignocellulose valorization that will also seek its accurate position in the kingdoms of functional materials and wastewater restoration.

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

Abstract
The development of functional biomass-based carbon aerogels (CAs) with excellent mechanical flexibility and ultra-high phosphate capture capacity is crucial for capture and recovery of phosphate from waste water. Herein, a functional biomass-derived CA (MgO@SL/CMC CA) with an ordered wave-shaped layered structure and excellent compressibility was fabricated with the aim of creating a material with efficient phosphate capture performance. The incorporation of sulfonomethylated lignin (SL) significantly improves the mechanical flexibility of MgO@SL/CMC CA. Numerous MgO nano-particles (NPs), which act as principal adsorption sites, were uniformly anchored on the MgO@SL/CMC CA. The prepared MgO@SL/CMC CA with high Mg content (20.34 wt%) exhibited an ultra-high phosphate capture capacity (218.51 mg P g-1 for adsorbent or 644.58 mg P g-1 for MgO), excellent adsorptive selectivity for phosphate and a wide pH range of application (2-8). Notably, more than 81.95% of the phosphate capture capacity was retained after six cyclic adsorption-desorption tests. A considerable effective treatment volume (468 BV) of actual wastewater (1.7 mg P L-1) could be achieved by the MgO@SL/CMC CA in the fixed-bed adsorption column. Research into the adsorption mechanism reveals that monolayer chemisorption of phosphate occurs on the MgO@SL/CMC CA through a ligand exchange process. The combination of favorable flexibility, green raw materials and superior phosphate capture performance endows MgO@SL/CMC CA with great application potential in the practical treatment of wastewater.

Abstract
The pulp and biorefining industries produce their waste as lignin, which is one of the most abundant renewable resources. So far, lignin has been remained severely underutilized and generally burnt in a boiler as a low-value fuel. To demonstrate lignin's potential as a value-added product, we will review market opportunities for lignin related applications by utilizing the thermo-chemical/biological depolymerization strategies (with or without catalysts) and their comparative evaluation. The application of lignin and its derived aromatics in various sectors such as cement industry, bitumen modifier, energy materials, agriculture, nanocomposite, biomedical, H2 source, biosensor and bioimaging have been summarized. This comprehensive review article also highlights the technical, economic, environmental, and socio-economic variable that affect the market value of lignin-derived by-products. The review shows the importance of lignin, and its derived products are a platform for future bioeconomy and sustainability.

Abstract
The elimination of toxic and hazardous contaminants from different environmental media has become a global challenge, causing researchers to focus on the treatment of pollutants. Accordingly, the elimination of inorganic and organic pollutants using sustainable, effective, and low-cost heterogeneous catalysts is considered as one of the most essential routes for this aim. Thus, many efforts have been devoted to the synthesis of novel compounds and improving their catalytic performance. Recently, palladium- and copper-based hydrogels have been used as catalysts for reduction, degradation, and decomposition reactions because they have significant features such as high mechanical strength, thermal stability, and high surface area. Herein, we summarize the progress achieved in this field, including the various methods for the synthesis of copper- and palladium-based hydrogel catalysts and their applications for environmental remediation. Moreover, palladium- and copper-based hydrogel catalysts, which have certain advantages, including high catalytic ability, reusability, easy work-up, and simple synthesis, are proposed as a new group of effective catalysts. The elimination of toxic and hazardous contaminants from different environmental media has become a global challenge, causing researchers to focus on the treatment of pollutants.![]()

Computational study of the interaction of heavy metal ions, Cd(II), Hg(II), and Pb(II) on lignin matrices. J Mol Graph Model 2021; 111:108080. [PMID: 34826714 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmgm.2021.108080] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2021] [Revised: 11/01/2021] [Accepted: 11/15/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
Contamination by heavy metal ions, particularly in water resources, is a severe environmental problem. In this study, the interaction of metal ions, namely, Cadmium Cd(II), Mercury Hg(II), and Lead Pb(II), on lignin matrices was investigated based on theoretical calculations. Binding energy (ΔEBind) values proved that the Pb(II) interacted better with lignin matrices than Cd(II) or Hg(II), having energy values between -8.4 kcal mol-1 to -20.2 kcal mol-1. The Gibbs energy (ΔG) and enthalpy (ΔH) values for Pb(II) were <0, indicating that the process was spontaneous and released heat. However, the lignin matrices studied in this work did not interact efficiently with Cd(II) and Hg(II) ions because almost all ΔEBind, ΔG, and ΔH values were positive. The bond length of the interaction proved that the Pb ions yielded the smallest values, ratifying the values for the interaction energy. Analyses based on the quantum theory of atoms in molecules showed that the interactions between Pb(II) and the matrices were partially covalent, whereas the interactions of Cd(II) and Hg(II) were predominantly electrostatic, justifying the positive values of ΔEBind, ΔG, and ΔH. The natural bond orbital results showed that the ligand orbitals of the matrix interacted with the lone pair antibonding orbital (LP*) of the metal ions. The theoretical results of the study show the possibility of applying lignin to remove heavy metal ions, especially Pb, and providing information for research related to wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Due to the impacts of water scarcity, the world is looking at all possible solutions for decreasing the over-exploitation of finite freshwater resources. Wastewater is one of the most reliable and accessible water supplies. As the population expands, so do industrial, agricultural, and household operations in order to meet man’s enormous demands. These operations generate huge amounts of wastewater, which may be recovered and used for a variety of reasons. Conventional wastewater treatment techniques have had some success in treating effluents for discharge throughout the years. However, advances in wastewater treatment techniques are required to make treated wastewater suitable for industrial, agricultural, and household use. Diverse techniques for removing heavy metal ions from various water and wastewater sources have been described. These treatments can be categorized as adsorption, membrane, chemical, or electric. Membrane technology has been developed as a popular alternative for recovering and reusing water from various water and wastewater sources. This study integrates useful membrane technology techniques for water and wastewater treatment containing heavy metals, with the objective of establishing a low-cost, high-efficiency method as well as ideal production conditions: low-cost, high-efficiency selective membranes, and maximum flexibility and selectivity. Future studies should concentrate on eco-friendly, cost-effective, and long-term materials and procedures.
