Abstract
The unsaturated behavior of permeable reactive barriers (PRB) is a critical component in predicting the removal efficiency through the adsorption of contaminants. This study investigates the framework to estimate the soil water characteristic curve (SWCC) and hydraulic conductivity function (HCF) for iron oxide-coated sand (IOCS) and zeolite, which are common materials used in PRBs. A multistep outflow (MSO) experiment was performed and the results of the MSO experiment were used to optimize associated parameters in Kosugi's SWCC and HCF. In addition, three scenarios of optimization analysis were investigated to evaluate the best-fitting model for estimating SWCC and HCF. The low root mean square error (RMSE) of fitted parameters indicates the Kosugi model well described the observed suction profiles in MSO experiments. In addition, the lowest RMSE and coefficient of variation suggested the inclusion of the additional parameter β provided the best estimation of the three materials (clean sand, IOCS, and zeolite). The physically reasonable estimation of SWCC and HCF of the three materials from the optimized parameters suggests the proposed framework is a reasonable model for the unsaturated behavior of PRBs.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 340:122659. [PMID: 37839682 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122659] [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: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 09/08/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/17/2023]
Abstract
Dye pollution is becoming increasingly severe. This study used the Schiff base reaction to synthesize a polyaromatic ring covalent organic polymer material with amide bonds and high electronegativity named SLEL-9 to adsorb Methylene Blue (MB) and Rhodamine B (RhB). SLEL-9 was characterized by Fourier transform infra-red spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectra, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), zeta potential analysis, and other techniques. It was found that SLEL-9 material contains C-C, CN, C-N, and CO. SLEL-9 had a zeta potential of about -45 mV under neutral conditions, which proved that the material had been synthesized successfully. The BET and Langmuir surface areas of SLEL-9 were 35.187 m2 g-1 and 56.419 m2 g-1, respectively. The adsorptions of SLEL-9 on low concentration (10 mg L-1) Methylene Blue and Rhodamine B reached equilibrium within 48 h. The results showed that SLEL-9's adsorption of dye molecules are more consistent with pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption process is a spontaneous endothermic reaction, mainly chemisorption. The maximum adsorption capacity of SLEL-9 for MB and RhB were 132.45 mg g-1 and 101.94 mg g-1. In addition, this study investigated to determine the optimal reaction parameters. The primary mechanisms of SLEL-9 adsorption of two dyes are n→π* interaction, π-π EDA interaction and electrostatic attraction. Selective adsorb ability experiment results showed that SLEL-9 could selectively adsorb MB and RhB to a certain extent. Finally, it was found that SLEL-9 can maintain over 70% adsorption capacity after five reuses and can maintain stability after soaking in different pH water and organic solvents for 120 h. SLEL-9 proved to be a promising organic covalent polymer adsorption material for the removal of Methylene Blue and Rhodamine B in water.

Contaminant containment for sustainable remediation of persistent contaminants in soil and groundwater. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 455:131575. [PMID: 37172380 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131575] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Revised: 05/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 05/14/2023]
Abstract
Contaminant containment measures are often necessary to prevent or minimize offsite movement of contaminated materials for disposal or other purposes when they can be buried or left in place due to extensive subsurface contamination. These measures can include physical, chemical, and biological technologies such as impermeable and permeable barriers, stabilization and solidification, and phytostabilization. Contaminant containment is advantageous because it can stop contaminant plumes from migrating further and allow for pollutant reduction at sites where the source is inaccessible or cannot be removed. Moreover, unlike other options, contaminant containment measures do not require the excavation of contaminated substrates. However, contaminant containment measures require regular inspections to monitor for contaminant mobilization and migration. This review critically evaluates the sources of persistent contaminants, the different approaches to contaminant remediation, and the various physical-chemical-biological processes of contaminant containment. Additionally, the review provides case studies of contaminant containment operations under real or simulated field conditions. In summary, contaminant containment measures are essential for preventing further contamination and reducing risks to public health and the environment. While periodic monitoring is necessary, the benefits of contaminant containment make it a valuable remediation option when other methods are not feasible.

Jia A, Zhao Y, Liu Z, Zhang F, Shi C, Liu Z, Hong M, Li Y. New insight into enhanced transport of multi-component porous covalent-organic polymers with alkyl chains as injection agents for levofloxacin removal in saturated sand columns. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 862:160773. [PMID: 36509275 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.160773] [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: 08/25/2022] [Revised: 11/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/04/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Levofloxacin (LEV) is prone to be retained in aquifers due to its strong adsorption affinity onto sand, thus posing a threat to groundwater quality. In-situ injection technology for remediating LEV-contaminated soil and groundwater is still challenging owing to the lack of appropriate remedial agents. Herein, two novel multi-component porous covalent-organic polymers (namely, SLEL-1 and SLEL-2) with alkyl chains were constructed through Schiff-base reactions to adsorb LEV from an aqueous solution, in which the kinetics, isotherms, influenced factors were investigated. Plausible adsorption mechanisms were proposed through characterization and experimental analysis, including pore filling effect, π-π electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) interaction, hydrogen bonding force, hydrophobic-hydrophobic interaction as well as electrostatic force. In addition, response surface methodology (RSM) revealed the treatment optimization and reciprocal relationship within multi-variables. Furthermore, taking advantage of favorable dispersion and outstanding competitive behavior, SLEL-1 was established as an in-situ adsorptive agent in dynamic saturated columns on a laboratory scale to investigate the removal of LEV from water-bearing stratum. Overall, the findings of this work provided an insight into the fabrication of SLELs as long-term mobile and reusable adsorptive agents for practical in-situ applications in the future.
