Abstract
Simultaneous monitoring of plasma concentration levels of multiple antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) is essential for dose adjustment in comprehensive epilepsy treatment, necessitating a sensitive technique for accurate extraction and determination of AEDs. Herein, a magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) technique on the basis of modified biochar (BC) is investigated to extract four AEDs from plasma, in conjunction with high performance liquid chromatography. BC derived from Zizyphus jujuba seed shells was activated by phosphoric acid (PBC) and magnetized via coprecipitation to produce MPBC. The MPBCCD obtained after modification with β-cyclodextrin (CD) was characterized and evaluated for adsorption. It exhibited fast adsorption kinetics based on second-order kinetics and satisfactory adsorption capacity for AEDs. Then it was employed as the MSPE adsorbent and the influencing parameters were optimized. The enrichment factor was 18.75. The validation analysis revealed a favorable linearity that ranged from 0.04 to 20 μg·mL-1 along with a low limit of detection of 6.85 to 10.19 ng·mL-1. The recovery of the AEDs ranged from 78.7 to 109.2 %, with relative standard deviations below 6.7 %. Using quantum chemistry theory calculations and experimental results analysis, the adsorption mechanism was investigated. It disclosed that the suggested strategy built upon MPBCCD was appropriate for the assessment of AEDs in plasma and expanded the usage of BC as the environmentally favorable matrix for the analysis of biological samples.

The dual-configured hydrogen bonds induced by polymerized deep eutectic solvents-modified magnetic biochar enhanced the selectivity for 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 356:124193. [PMID: 38788993 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.124193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
The accurate discovering and monitoring of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) are especially important because of its substantial toxicity and potential harm to human and the ecological systems. Three types of polymerized deep eutectic solvents functionalized magnetic biochar (MBC@poly (AA/AAC/AAm-ChCl)) were successfully synthesized to adsorb MDMA. The isotherm and kinetic data confirmed that MBC@poly (AAm-ChCl) had the strongest adsorption capacity, and the order of adsorption capacity is as follow: MBC@poly(AAm-ChCl) > MBC@poly(AA-ChCl) > MBC@poly(MAA-ChCl), which also revealed that the adsorption was heterogeneous multi-layer chemisorption. The findings of the characterizations manifested that MBC@poly(AAm-ChCl) was the optimal adsorbent owning to its higher nitrogen content, resulting in the formation of a greater number of hydrogen bonds. Due to the strong hydrogen bonding effect of CO and -NH2 functional groups, MBC@poly(AAm-ChCl) exhibited the high selectivity towards MDMA under the coexistence of multiple chemical substances, and excellent adsorption performance over the pH range of 4-11. Urea as a hydrogen bond inhibitor further confirmed MBC@poly(AAm-ChCl) had high-density active hydrogen bonding sites. Furthermore, utilizing density functional theory (DFT) for simulating adsorption both before and after the process verified that the high selectivity of MBC@poly(AAm-ChCl) attributed to the formation of the dual-configured hydrogen bonds. This study provides support for the production of highly selective biochar for use in pretreatment during drug detection.

Liu Y, Xiong YS, Li MX, Li W, Li K. Polyethyleneimine-functionalized magnetic sugarcane bagasse cellulose film for the efficient adsorption of ibuprofen. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 265:130969. [PMID: 38508562 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130969] [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: 10/17/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
Polyethyleneimine-modified magnetic sugarcane bagasse cellulose film (P-SBC/Fe3O4 film) was simply fabricated for the removal of ibuprofen (IBP), a typical emerging organic contaminant. The P-SBC/Fe3O4 film exhibited an equilibrium adsorption amount of 370.52 mg/g for IBP and a corresponding removal efficiency of 92.63 % under following adsorption conditions: 318 K, pH 4, and 0.25 mg/mL dosage. Thermodynamic studies indicated that adsorption of IBP on the P-SBC/Fe3O4 film was spontaneous (∆G < 0) and endothermic (∆H > 0). The adsorption data conformed to the Freundlich isotherm model and multilayer adsorption model (two layers), and an average of 3-4 active sites on the P-SBC/Fe3O4 film share an IBP molecule. Both the EDR-IDR and AOAS models vividly described the dynamic characteristics of adsorption process. Model fitting results, theoretical calculations, and comprehensive characterization revealed that adsorption is driven by electrostatic interactions between the primary amine of P-SBC/Fe3O4 film and the carboxyl group of IBP molecule, while other weak interactions are also non-ignorable. Furthermore, quantitative calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) underscored the importance of PEI functionalization. In conclusion, P-SBC/Fe3O4 film is an environmentally friendly and cost-effective adsorbent with significant potential for effectively removing IBP, while maintaining its efficacy over multiple cycles.

Abstract
This study presents a novel and environmentally friendly method for producing cellulose microspheres (CM) with controllable morphology and size using electrostatic droplets. The traditional droplet method for CM production requires complex equipment and harmful reagents. In contrast, the proposed method offers a simple electrostatic droplet approach to fabricate CM10 at 10 kV, which exhibited a smaller volume, linear microscopic morphology, and a larger specific surface area, with a 36.60 % improvement compared to CM0 (prepared at 0 kV). CM10 also demonstrated excellent underwater structural stability, recovering in just 0.5 s, and exhibited the highest adsorption capacity for Cr(VI) at 190.16 mg/g, a 72.15 % improvement over CM0. This enhanced adsorption capacity can be attributed to the unique structure of CM10 and the introduction of more amino groups. Moreover, CM10 displayed good cyclic adsorption capacity and high dynamic adsorption efficiency, making it highly suitable for practical applications. CM10 exhibited remarkable adsorption capacity, stability, and practical value in treating Cr(VI) wastewater. This work proposes a simple and eco-friendly method for producing CM with excellent structural controllability and stability, providing an effective route for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Mephedrone (4-methylmethcathinone, MEPH) exhibited severe ecologic hazards and health detriments. A novel deep eutectic solvent functionalized magnetic ZIF-8/hierarchical porous carbon (DMZH) with excellent selectivity, interference resistance and recyclability, was developed for the rapid adsorption of MEPH. Initially, potential adsorption sites of MEPH were predicted. Then, π-π and hydrogen bonding interactions were proposed and verified from characterizations, comparative experiments and theoretical calculations. The synergistic effects of the hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions increased the adsorption energies from -15.26 kcal⋅mol-1 to -21.83 kcal⋅mol-1, enhanced the degree of π-dissociation, enlarged the π-π isosurface area, extended the van der Waals surface mutual penetration distance, achieving stronger affinity and remarkable adsorption. Furthermore, offset (parallel-displaced) π-π stacking form existed between DMZH and MEPH. DMZH acted as the hydrogen bond donor and MEPH served as the hydrogen bond acceptor to form O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonding interaction. Profiting from the synergistic effects, DMZH showed satisfactory adsorption for MEPH within 20 min with a maximum adsorption capacity of 3270.11 μg∙g-1, displayed excellent performance in wide pH range of 5∼11 and in the coexistence of multi-chemicals.

Abstract
Large quantities of organic dyes are discharged into the environment, causing serious damage to the ecosystem. Therefore, it is urgent to develop inexpensive adsorbents to remove organic dyes. A novel cellulose-based aerogel (MPPA) with 3D porous structure was prepared by using cassava residue (cellulose) as basic construction blocks, doping ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4) for magnetic separation, and applying polyethyleneimine (PEI) as functional material for highly efficient and selective capture of Congo red (CR). MPPA exhibited porous network structure, numerous active capture sites, nontoxicity, high hydrophilicity, and excellent thermal stability. MPPA showed superior adsorption property for CR, with an equilibrium adsorption capacity of 2018.14 mg/g, and still had an adsorption property of 1189.31 mg/g after five recycling procedures. In addition, MPPA has excellent selectivity for CR in four binary dye systems. The adsorption behavior of MPPA on CR was further explored using a multilayer adsorption model, EDR-IDR hybrid model and AOAS model. Electrostatic potential and independent gradient models were used to further verify the possible interaction between MPPA and CR molecules. In conclusion, MPPA is a promising adsorbent in the field of treating anionic dyes.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 461:132633.

Abstract
Water contamination caused by discharge of spent washes containing colorants remains controversial. In this study, rosin-derived strongly basic macroporous anion-adsorption resin (RSBMAR) was designed as an advanced adsorbent for scavenging caramel, the most recalcitrant colorant in spent washes. Toxicity tests suggest that RSBMAR is environmentally friendly and hardly threatens aquatic organisms. RSBMAR exhibits outstanding caramel capture efficiency because of its rich target quaternary ammonium (-R4N+) and protonated tertiary amine (-R3NH+) groups, abundant porous structure, large specific surface area, excellent thermal stability, and good sphericity. The caramel adsorption capacity of RSBMAR was 165.86 mg/g and the decolorization efficiency reached 96.75%. After five cycles, the spent RSBMAR maintained a high decolorization rate, indicating excellent renewability. Multiple characterizations indicated that caramel capture was largely mediated by charge interaction between -R4N+/-R3NH+ (RSBMAR) and -RCOO-/-RCOOH (caramel), followed by H-bonds. Quantum chemical theory simulations, including electrostatic potential, local ionization energy, frontier molecular orbitals, and independent gradient model analyses, further visualized caramel capture mechanisms at atomic level. Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that RSBMAR acts as both an H-bond donor and acceptor during caramel uptake. Dynamic adsorption was performed to treat real wastewater, laying the foundation for the industrial application of RSBMAR.

Abstract
The preparation, characterization and adsorption performance of the phosphate-modified hydrochar (P-hydrochar) for Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin removal are investigated. Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin adsorption behavior fit well with the Hill model with the adsorption capacity of 119.61 and 98.38 mg/g, respectively. Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin adsorption kinetic process are accurately described by the Pseudo-second-order. Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin have synergy in the binary contaminant system, which reveals that Pb(II) adsorption amount is augmented. While ciprofloxacin adsorption amount is also augmented at low Pb(II) concentration and hindered at high Pb(II) concentration. Pb(II) adsorption mechanisms on P-hydrochar (e.g. precipitation, π-π interaction and complexation) are different from the ciprofloxacin (e.g. hydrogen bonding, pore filling, electrostatic attraction). Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin adsorption process are further analyzed by the density functional theory. The coexisted ions have little influenced on Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin adsorption. P-hydrochar still has large Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin adsorption capacity after five cycles. This result indicates that poplar sawdust waste can be converted into an efficient adsorbent to remove Pb(II) and ciprofloxacin from wastewater,.

Abstract
In this study, vinasse shell biochar (VS) was easily modified with phosphogypsum to produce a low-cost and novel adsorbent (MVS) with excellent fluoride adsorption performance. The physicochemical features of the fabricated materials were studied in detail using SEM, EDS, BET, XRD, FTIR, and XPS techniques. The adsorption experiments demonstrated that the adsorption capacity of fluoride by MVS was greatly enhanced compared with VS, and the adsorption capacity increased with the pyrolysis temperature, dosage, and contact time. In comparison to chloride and nitrate ions, sulfate ions significantly affected adsorption capacity. The fluoride adsorption capacity increased first and then decreased with increasing pH in the range of 3-12. The fluoride adsorption could be perfectly fitted to the pseudo-second-order model. Adsorption isotherms matched Freundlich and Sips isotherm models well, giving 290.9 mg/g as the maximum adsorption capacity. Additionally, a thermodynamic analysis was indicative of spontaneous and endothermic processes. Based on characterization and experiment results, the plausible mechanism of fluoride adsorption onto MVS was proposed, mainly including electrostatic interactions, ion exchange, precipitation, and hydrogen bonds. This study showed that MVS could be used for the highly efficient removal of fluoride and was compatible with practical applications.

Abstract
Developing advanced adsorbents for removing the alarming level of pharmaceuticals active compounds (PhACs) pollution is an urgent task for environmental treatment. Herein, a novel acid-treated carbon nanofiber/polypyrrole/MIL-100-Fe (ACNF/PPy/MIL-100-Fe) with stable 3D-supporting skeleton and hierarchical porous structure had been fabricated to erasure ceftriaxone (CEF) and indomethacin (IDM) from aqueous solution. ACNF as scaffold achieved the highly uniform growth of MIL-100-Fe and PPy. Viewing the large BET surface area (SBET, 999.7 m2/g), highly exposed accessible active sites and copious functional groups, ACNF/PPy/MIL-100-Fe separately showed an excellent adsorption capacity for CEF (294.7 mg/g) and IDM (751.8 mg/g), outstripping the most previously reported adsorbents. Moreover, ACNF/PPy/MIL-100-Fe reached rapid adsorption kinetics and standout reusability property. Further, the redesigned easy-to-recyclable ACF/PPy/MIL-100-Fe inspired by the electrode formation craft achieved prominent adsorption capacity and good reusability property. The adsorption mechanism was evaluated via Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The outcomes revealed that the splendid adsorption capability mainly depended on the electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding and π-π interactions. This work sheds light on one facile practical strategy to exploit advanced materials in water environmental remediation.

[PMID: 37419350 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.165317] [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: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are among the most frequently used pharmaceuticals for human therapy, pet therapeutics, and veterinary feeds, enabling them to enter into water sources such as wastewater, soil and sediment, and seawater. The control of NSAIDs has led to the advent of the novel materials for treatment techniques. Herein, we review the occurrence, impact and toxicity of NSAIDs against aquatic microorganisms, plants and humans. Typical NSAIDs, e.g., ibuprofen, ketoprofen, diclofenac, naproxen and aspirin were detected at high concentrations in wastewater up to 2,747,000 ng L-1. NSAIDs in water could cause genotoxicity, endocrine disruption, locomotive disorders, body deformations, organs damage, and photosynthetic corruption. Considering treatment methods, among adsorbents for removal of NSAIDs from water, metal-organic frameworks (10.7-638 mg g-1) and advanced porous carbons (7.4-400 mg g-1) were the most robust. Therefore, these carbon-based adsorbents showed promise in efficiency for the treatment of NSAIDs.

Sodium-alginate-laden MXene and MOF systems and their composite hydrogel beads for batch and fixed-bed adsorption of naproxen with electrochemical regeneration. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 318:121098.

Abstract
Sodium alginate (SA)-laden two-dimensional (2D) Ti3C2Tx MXene (MX) and MIL-101(Fe) (a type of metal-organic framework (MOF)) composites were prepared and used for the removal of naproxen (NPX), following the adsorption and electrochemical regeneration processes. The fixed-bed adsorption column studies were also conducted to study the process of removal of NPX by hydrogels. The number of interactions via which the MX-embedded SA (MX@SA) could adsorb NPX was higher than the number of pathways associated with NPX adsorption on the MIL-101(Fe)-embedded SA (MIL-101(Fe)@SA), and the MX and MIL-101(Fe) composite embedded SA (MX/MIL-101(Fe)@SA). The optimum parameters for the electrochemical regeneration process were determined: charge passed and current density values were 169.3 C g-1 and 10 mA cm-2, respectively, for MX@SA, and the charge passed and current density values were 16.7 C g-1 and 5 mA cm-2, respectively, for both MIL-101(Fe)@SA and MX/MIL-101(Fe)@SA. These parameters enabled excellent regeneration, consistent over multiple adsorption and electrochemical regeneration cycles. The mechanism for the regeneration of the materials was proposed that the regeneration of MX@SA and MIL-101(Fe)@SA involved the indirect electrooxidation process in the presence of OH radicals, and the regeneration of MX/MIL-101(Fe)@SA involved the indirect oxidation process in the presence of active chlorine species.

Abstract
Melanoidins are hazardous dark-coloured substances contained in molasses-based distillery wastewater. Adsorption is an effective approach to eliminate melanoidins from wastewater. However, melanoidin adsorption capacities of available adsorbents are unsatisfactory, which seriously limits their practical application. A hyperbranched polyethyleneimine-functionalised chitosan aerogel (HPCA) was fabricated as an effective adsorbent for melanoidin scavenging. HPCA demonstrated superior melanoidin adsorption efficiency because of its high specific surface area, abundant amino functional groups, and high hydrophilicity. Melanoidin removal rate of HPCA was 94.95%, which remained at 91.45% after 5 cycles. Notably, using the Langmuir isothermal model, the maximum melanoidin adsorption capacity of HPCA was determined to be 868.36 mg/g, surpassing those of most of previously reported adsorbents. Toxicity experiments indicated that HPCA can be considered a safe adsorbent with excellent biocompatibility that hardly threatens aquatic organisms. The efficient melanoidin removal of HPCA was attributed to electrostatic attraction, H-bonding, and van der Waals force. However, the adsorption might be predominantly controlled by electrovalent interaction between protonated amino groups of HPCA and carboxyl/carboxylate groups of melanoidins. Two novel models, namely, external diffusion resistance-internal diffusion resistance mixed model and adsorption on active site model, were employed to describe the dynamic mass transfer characteristics of melanoidin adsorption by HPCA.

Abstract
Amino-functionalized fly ash based tobermorite (NH2-FAT) was prepared via a two-step process including a hydrothermal preparation of fly ash based tobermorite (FAT) from fly ash (FA) and the impregnation of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). The characteristics of FA, FAT, and NH2-FAT were systematically measured. The removal capacity of Cr(VI) by FAT and NH2-FAT were comparatively studied. The results indicated that the NH2-FAT presented excellent removal efficiency towards Cr(VI) in the condition of pH of 2. The adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) by NH2-FAT in this study was up to 498.39 mg/g resulted from Langmuir model, which was more superior to that of FAT, other reported FA based adsorbents and most amino-functionalized adsorbents. Furthermore, the removal mechanisms of Cr(VI) by NH2-FAT were ascribed to both electrostatic attraction and reduction to Cr(III) by amino groups. Overall, this work indicates the NH2-FAT is a promising adsorbent for treating wastewater containing Cr(VI), and provides a new utilization method of FA.

Abstract
The development of adsorbents with outstanding adsorption capacities, wide versatility, and excellent recyclability for the removal of organic dyes remains a challenge. In this study, a quaternised chitosan-based aerogel (QCSA) was fabricated via a facile method to effectively treat concomitant anionic dyes. Porous QCSA with high hydrophilicity, nontoxicity, excellent thermal stability, and sustainability exhibits adsorption properties superior to most previously reported adsorbents. The equilibrium adsorption capacities for Congo red, Sunset yellow, and Methyl orange were 1259.6, 550.2, and 607.5 mg/g, respectively. Notably, the spent QCSA exhibits excellent cyclic performance. The multilayer adsorption, external-internal mass transfer resistance, and adsorption on the active site models were employed to enable a more accurate description of the dynamic characteristics, confirming that double-layer chemisorption was the dominant process. A quantitative analysis of the electrostatic potential and the independent gradient model further verified that electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals forces led to the highly efficient adsorption of dye molecules. Therefore, the eco-friendly and recyclable QCSA is a promising adsorbent for trapping anionic dyes from aquatic systems.

Abstract
Under the new crown pneumonia (COVID-19) epidemic, the intensive use of therapeutic drugs has caused certain hidden danger to the safety of the water environment. Therefore, the core-shell microporous zinc silicate (SiO2@ZSO) was successfully prepared and used for the adsorption of chloroquine phosphate (CQ), tetracycline (TC) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) for eliminating the threat of COVID-19. The adsorption efficiencies of 20 mg L-1 of CQ, TC and CIP by SiO2@ZSO were all up to 60% after 5 min. The adsorption capacity of SiO2@ZSO for CQ, TC and CIP can reach 49.01 mg g-1, 56.06 mg g-1 and 104.77 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption process is primarily physical adsorption, which is heterogeneous, spontaneous and preferential. Moreover, the effects of temperature, pH, salinity, and reusability on the adsorption of CQ, TC, and CIP on SiO2@ZSO were investigated. The adsorption mechanism mainly involves electrostatic attraction, partitioning and hydrogen bonding, which is insightful through the changes of the elements and functional groups before and after adsorption. This work provides a solution to the problems faced by the treatment of pharmaceuticals wastewater under the COVID-19 epidemic.

Abstract
The penicillin industry produces a large amount of penicillin mycelial dreg (PMD), potentially causing severe environmental problems without proper treatment and disposal. To achieve the goals of PMD management, the present work explored the potential of PMD as a novel feedstock to produce biochar with very high adsorption performance. PMD was pyrolyzed at 400-800 °C to prepare biochars (PMD-BCs), and the physical and chemical properties were characterized using various methods. The adsorption capacities of Pb2+ on PMD-BC400, PMD-BC600, and PMD-BC800 were 37.04, 62.89, and 107.53 mg/g, respectively, at a temperature of 25 °C and pH of 5.0. The adsorption process of Pb2+ on PMD-BCs can be well described by the Langmuir model and pseudo-second-order model. Mineral precipitation, ion exchange, functional group complexation and Pb2+-π interaction were involved in the adsorption of Pb2+ on PMD-BCs. Moreover, mineral precipitation and ion exchange dominated Pb2+ sorption on PMD-BCs (84.71-92.73%). This study indicates the transition of PMD to biochar for Pb2+ adsorption is a promising method for PMD utilization.

Abstract
In the present research work, the use of agro-industrial waste such as agave bagasse from the tequila industry was carried out. The agave bagasse was treated to obtain biosorbent and hydrochar materials. Direct Blue 86 was used as an adsorbate model to evaluate the performance of both materials. The adsorption studies showed an adsorption capacity of 6.49 mg g−1 in static and 17.7 mg g−1 in dynamic, associated with a physisorption process between functional groups of the material and the dye. The characterization of the biosorbent showed that the material was mainly composed of macroporous fibers with a surface area <5.0 m2 g−1. Elemental analysis showed a majority composition of C (57.19 wt%) and O (37.49 wt%). FTIR and XPS analyses showed that the material had C-O, C=O, -OH, O-C=O, and -NH2 surface groups. RAMAN and TGA were used to evaluate the composition, being cellulose (40.94%), lignin (20.15%), and hemicellulose (3.35%). Finally, the life-cycle assessment at a laboratory scale showed that the proposed biosorbent presents a 17% reduction in several environmental aspects compared to hydrochar, showing promise as an eco-friendly and highly efficient method for the remediation of water contaminated with dye, as well as being a promising alternative for the responsible management of solid waste generated by the tequila industry.

Abstract
Vanadium is considered a strategic metal with wide applications in various industries due to its unique chemical and physical properties. On the basis of these considerations, the recovery of vanadium (V) is mandatory because of the lack of raw materials. Various methods are used to recover vanadium (V) from used aqueous solutions. This study develops a clean and effective process for the recovery of vanadium (V) by using the adsorption method. At the same time, this study synthesizes a material starting from silica matrices and iron oxides, which is used as an adsorbent material. To show the phase composition, the obtained material is characterized by X-ray diffraction showing that the material is present in the amorphous phase, with a crystal size of 20 nm. However, the morphological texture of the material is determined by the N2 adsorption-desorption method, proving that the adsorbent material has a high surface area of 305 m2/g with a total pore volume of 1.55 cm3/g. To determine the efficiency of the SiO2FexOy material for the recovery of vanadium through the adsorption process, the role of specific parameters, such as the L-to-V ratio, pH, contact time, temperature, and initial vanadium concentration, must be evaluated. The adsorption process mechanism was established through kinetic, thermodynamic, and equilibrium studies. In our case, the process is physical, endothermic, spontaneous, and takes place at the interface of SiO2FexOy with V2O5. Following equilibrium studies, the maximum adsorption capacity of the SiO2FexOy material was 58.8 mg (V)/g of material.

Abstract
Waste rock from bentonite mining (WRBM) was evaluated as potential adsorbents for removing crystal violet (CV) and methylene blue (MB) cationic dyes from contaminated water. The waste samples (AM01, AM02, and AM03) were collected from different locations of the bentonite mine and characterized through X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, N2 adsorption/desorption, and cation exchange capacity. The adsorption efficiency of CV and MB dyes was investigated through the effect of initial concentration, contact time, pH, the dosage of adsorbent, and temperature. Sample AM02 showed the largest surface area (69.13 m2/g) and the best adsorptive performance for both dyes, with removal more significant than 90%. The adsorption of CV and MB in the waste followed the Langmuir isothermal model. Samples AM01 and AM02 followed the pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic model, while AM03 better fitted the Elovich kinetic model. The enthalpy (ΔH), entropy (ΔS), and Gibbs energy (ΔG) were evaluated as adsorption parameters. The process of adsorption of CV and MB dyes in the waste was predominantly endothermic and occurred spontaneously. WRBM samples proved to be a promising candidate for removing cationic dyes present in water.

Abstract
Diethylenetriaminepenta (methylene phosphonic) acid (DTPMP) was first used as a dopant to modify hydroxyapatite and applied to remove Pb2+. The adsorption capacity of modified hydroxyapatite for Pb2+ can reach 2185.92 mg/g, which was 10.4 times that of commercial nanohydroxyapatite. The characterizations after adsorption of Pb2+ indicated the existence of chelation and the formation of the low bioavailability Pb10(PO4)6(OH)2. Moreover, the interaction of different components containing DTPMP, HAP, and pollutant Pb2+ was investigated by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, which indicated that the organic-phosphonic group of DTPMP (PO3H-) had a stronger complex effect with calcium ions or lead ions than that of the inorganic-phosphate group of HAP (PO43-) with the two metal ions, which affected the crystallinity of HAP, and greatly improved the removal effect of DTPMP doped HAP composites for Pb2+ contaminants, the existence of amino groups can further enhance the affinity between DTPMP and HAP or lead ions. The chelation mechanism of DTPMP and Pb2+ was probed in depth by combining basin analysis, topology analysis of atoms in molecules (AIM), electron localization function (ELF) analysis, bond order density (BOD) & natural adaptive orbital (NAdO)analysis and orbital component analysis.

Polyaniline/Glauconite Nanocomposite Adsorbent for Congo Red Dye from Textile Wastewater. SEPARATIONS 2022.

Abstract
Glauconite (Gl), a naturally occurring clay material, was utilized as an affordable and ecologically friendly adsorbent to explore its capturing capacity towards Congo red (CR) dye from textile industrial waste effluent. To improve adsorption and removal effectiveness, a modification technique utilizing polyaniline (PAN) was investigated. An X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Fourier transformer infrared (FTI-R) were applied as strong familiar characterization techniques for all used adsorbents. The effects of starting concentration, contact duration, adsorbent dose, pH, and temperature on the adsorption process were also studied. The reusability of the adsorbent was studied over four adsorption cycles. The results show that PAN modification of Gl enhances the effectiveness of CR elimination. The clearance efficiency of raw and modified glauconite at 25 °C and pH 7 was 77% and 91%, respectively. The kinetics and isotherms of Congo red dye adsorption were investigated using batch studies to determine the impacts of various experimental conditions. The maximum adsorption capacity of the glauconite/polyaniline (Gl/PAN) nanocomposite rose from 11.9 mg/g for Gl to 14.1 mg/g in accordance with the isotherm analysis, which shows that the Langmuir isotherm properly characterizes the experimental data. The pseudo-second-order model (R2 = 0.998) properly expresses the experimental data. The reusability research proved that the adsorbents may be reused effectively. The overall results suggest that the modified Gl by PAN might be used as a low-cost, natural adsorbent for eliminating CR color from textile effluent.

Abstract
A novel anionic nanostructured cellulose derivate was prepared through the coupling of TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers with 3-aminopropyl sulfonic acid (3-APSA). 3-APSA grafting was variously investigated by FT-IR spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis, confirming a high reaction degree. The surface morphology investigated via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed a more uniform organization of the nanofibers after the 3-APSA coupling, with improvements in terms of fiber packing and pore interconnectivity. This peculiar morphology contributes to improving methylene blue (MB) adsorption and removal efficiency at different operating conditions (pH, initial time, and initial concentration). The results indicated a maximum adsorption capacity of 526 mg/g in the case of 3-APSA grafted nanofibers, over 30% more than that of non-grafted ones (370 mg/g), which confirm a relevant effect of chemical modification on the adsorbent properties of cellulose nanofibers. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms of the current adsorbents match with the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models. This study suggests the use of chemical grafting via 3-APSA is a reliable and facile post-treatment to design bio-sustainable and reusable nanofibers to be used as high-performance adsorbent materials in water pollutant remediation.

Abstract
The conversion of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)), a highly poisonous heavy metal found in natural environment, to less poisonous trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) has attracted a lot of interest. However, little interest has been paid to the development of metal-free catalysts. Here, we demonstrate for the first time a molecular engineering strategy to synthesize a range of donor-acceptor conjugated polymer photocatalysts, which can significantly increase the reduction efficiency of Cr(VI) by a factor of 5.2, corresponding to a significant change in the reduction reaction rate constant (from 0.0337 to 0.1740 min-1). In addition, the apparent quantum efficiency (AQE) of Cr(VI) removal was obtained, and the optimized photocatalyst (Py-SO1) could achieve the highest apparent quantum efficiency at wavelength of 420 nm in those samples. Despite the narrow light absorption of Py-SO1 polymer, its excellent exciton separation efficiency and efficient electron output enabled it to achieve excellent performance in photoreduction of Cr(VI), surpassing that of the reported metal-free photocatalysts. The results show that the present work provides a new perspective for designing suitable environmental remediation catalysts based on molecular engineering strategies.

Abstract
Clay minerals are important soil components and usually coexist with organic matter, forming mineral-organic associations (MOAs), which control the speciation, mobility, and bioavailability of heavy metals. However, the adsorption mechanism of cadmium (Cd) by MOAs is still unclear, especially for the associations of amphotericorganic matter and clay minerals. In this study, 12-aminododecanoic acid (ALA) and montmorillonite (Mt) were chosen to prepare MOAs via intercalation (Mt-ALA composite) and physical mixing (Mt-ALA mixture). Batch experiments were conducted to investigate the adsorption mechanism of Cd(II) by MOAs under different pH values and initial Cd(II) concentrations. The results showed that the Cd(II) adsorption capacities followed as Mt > Mt-ALA mixture > Mt-ALA composite under acidic conditions, Mt-ALA mixture > Mt > Mt-ALA composite under neutral conditions, and Mt-ALA mixture > Mt-ALA composite > Mt under alkaline conditions, suggesting the adsorption behaviors of Cd(II) by MOAs were primarily constrained by the speciation of ALA and solution pH. Under acidic conditions, cationic HALA+ could intercalate into the interlayer of Mt and occupy the adsorption sites, reducing the adsorption capacity of Cd(II). As pH increased to neutral, HALA+ decreased and changed to a zwitterionic state, which caused ALA to release out from the interlayer of Mt-ALA composite or not easily enter into Mt-ALA mixture and promoted Cd(II) adsorption. Under alkaline conditions, the increase of anion ALA- would cause ALA to be mainly adsorbed on the surface of Mt and chelate with Cd(II), enhancing the adsorption of Cd(II). Further analysis by Fourier transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that the carboxyl and amino groups of ALA both participated in the adsorption of Cd(II). These findings could extend the knowledge on the mobility and fate of Cd in clay-based soils and be used as a basis for understanding the biogeochemical behavior of Cd in the environment.

Abstract
Porous organic polymers (POP) have gained attention because of their high specific surface area, porosity and their simplicity in synthesis, but for the most part, they are hydrophobic because of their organic backbone, making it difficult to expand their applications. Here, we have obtained poly(pyrene) porous organic polymers (PyPOP) through the polymerization of pyrene monomers catalysed by aluminium trichloride, which is a simple and inexpensive synthesis method. The sulfonated poly(pyrene) porous organic polymers (PyPOP-SO3H) obtained showed rapid adsorption of cationic dyes, especially malachite green (MG adsorption 1607 mg/g) and methylene blue (MB adsorption 1220 mg/g) in pH = 7 aqueous solution, room temperature. The results show that the Freundlich model is more in line with the adsorption process than the Langmuir model, whether for methylene blue or malachite green. In addition, the PSO kinetic model fits better than PFO kinetic model, whether it is for the adsorption of methylene blue or malachite green. The excellent adsorption performance of PyPOP-SO3H for cationic dyes may be due to the introduction of sulfonic acid groups, which not only increases the specific surface area but also allows better dispersion in water, increasing contact points and adsorption efficiency. This research expands the scope of exploration and application of POP.
