THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 904:166918. [PMID: 37689195 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.166918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/11/2023]
Abstract
With rapid industrial development and population growth, the pollution of soil and groundwater has become a critical concern all over the world. Yet, remediation of contaminated soil and water remains a major challenge. In recent years, apatite has gained a surging interest in environmental remediation because of its high treatment efficiency, low cost, and environmental benignity. This review summarizes recent advances in: (1) natural apatite of phosphate ores and biological source; (2) synthesis of engineered apatite particles (including stabilized or surface-modified apatite nanoparticles); (3) treatment effectiveness of apatite towards various environmental pollutants in soil and groundwater, including heavy metals (e.g., Pb, Zn, Cu, Cd, and Ni), inorganic anions (e.g., As oxyanions and F-), radionuclides (e.g., thorium (Th), strontium (Sr), and uranium (U)), and organic pollutants (e.g., antibiotics, dyes, and pesticides); and (4) the removal and/or interaction mechanisms of apatite towards the different contaminants. Lastly, the knowledge or technology gaps are identified and future research needs are proposed.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:106571-106584. [PMID: 37730979 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-29910-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 09/22/2023]
Abstract
In this study, nano-scale hydroxyapatite (HAP) powder was successfully synthesized from waste eggshells and combined with Lysinibacillus cavernae CR-2 to form bio-microcapsules, which facilitated the enhanced removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater. The effects of various parameters, such as bio-microcapsule dosage, HAP dosage, and initial Cr(VI) concentration on Cr(VI) removal, were investigated. Under different treatment conditions, the Cr(VI) removal followed the order of LC@HAP (90.95%) > LC (78.15%) > Free-LC (75.61%) > HAP (6.56%) > NM (0.23%) at the Cr(VI) initial concentration of 50 mg L-1. Relative to other reaction systems, the LC@HAP treatment exhibited a considerable decrease in total Cr content in the solution, with removal rates surpassing 70%. Additionally, the bio-microcapsules maintained significant biological activity after reacting with Cr(VI). Further characterization using SEM, FTIR, XPS, and XRD revealed that the Cr(VI) removal mechanisms by bio-microcapsules primarily involved biological reduction and HAP adsorption. The adsorption of Cr(III) by HAP predominantly occurred through electrostatic interactions and surface complexation, accompanied by an ion exchange process between Cr(III) and Ca(II). Hence, bio-microcapsules, created by combining L. cavernae with HAP, represent a promising emerging material for the enhanced removal of Cr(VI) pollutants from wastewater.

Fu H, Li X, Dai G, Bai M, Sheng W, Zhang X, Liu J, Wang L. Performance of oxalate-doped hydroxyapatite as well as relative contribution of oxalate and phosphate for aqueous lead removal. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 857:159596. [PMID: 36280073 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.159596] [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: 07/26/2022] [Revised: 10/08/2022] [Accepted: 10/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
An oxalate-doped hydroxyapatite (O-HAP) was hydrothermally synthesized for aqueous lead (Pb) removal based on the solubility-limiting ability of oxalate and phosphate over pH range 4-9. Free Pb2+ activities in oxalate and/or phosphate systems were controlled by oxalate to form soluble ion pairs Pb-Ox (aq) and Pb-Ox22- at pH 4-7 while in preference to persist as PbHPO4 (aq) when pH ≥ 8. Both phosphate and oxalate exhibited excellent efficiency in reducing Pb solubility, causing over 99 % of Pb precipitated from solution following oxalate < oxalate-phosphate < phosphate. The Visual MINTEQ model overestimated dissolved Pb and free Pb2+ in nearly all of the reaction systems due to the ill-defined stability constants and solubility products for Pb ion-pair formation. The addition of phosphate acting as a buffer in Pb-oxalate systems tended to lessen the spontaneous pH shifts within 24 h to equilibrate proton release from Pb precipitation and hydrolysis, indicating lower solubility products and faster kinetics of Pb-phosphate mineral formation. The TEM-EDS, FTIR and XRD identified a block-shaped Pb-oxalate mineral phase as the only precipitate at acidic pH while substituted by phosphate to form rod-shaped Pb5(PO4)3OH and Pb3(PO4)2 precipitates as pH increased. The optimum hydrothermal conditions of O-HAP were 433 K, pH 9 and P/Ox doping ratio of 0.5 for 24 h. Batch experiments revealed the endothermic process of O-HAP toward Pb with the maximum adsorption capacity reaching 2333 mg/g at a pH of 7, reaction time of 12 h, initial Pb concentration of 600 mg/L and temperature of 308 K, which were best fitted with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm. The synergetic mechanisms of O-HAP for Pb removal involved dissolution-precipitation, adsorption and ion exchange. This study provides an insight in developing effective remediation strategies for heavy metal contamination by interacting between low-molecular-weight organic acids and secondary mineral phases.

Abstract
Microbial induced phosphate precipitation (MIPP) is an advanced bioremediation technology to reduce the mobility and bioavailability of heavy metals (HMs), but the high level of HMs would inhibit the growth of phosphate solubilizing microbes. This study proposed a new combination system for the remediation of multiple HMs contaminated acidic mine soil, which included hydroxyapatite (HAP) and Phanerochaete chrysosporium (P. chrysosporium, PC) that had high phosphate solubilizing ability and HMs tolerance. Experimental data suggested that in HAP/PC treatment after 35 d of remediation, labile Cr, Zn and As could be transformed into the stable fraction with the maximum immobilization efficiencies increased by 53.01 %, 22.43 %, and 35.65 %, respectively. The secretion of organic acids by P. chrysosporium was proved to promote the dissolution of HAP. Besides, the pH value, available phosphorus (AP) and organic matter (OM) increased in treated soil than in original soil, which also indicated the related dissolution-precipitation mechanism of HMs immobilization. Additionally, characterization results revealed that adsorption and ion exchange also played an important role in the remediation process. The overall results suggested that applying P. chrysosporium coupled with HAP could be considered as an efficient strategy for the remediation of multiple HMs contaminated mine soil and laid a foundation for the future exploration of soil microenvironment response during the remediation process.

Abstract
Mining Ag, Cu, Pb, and Zn sulfides by flotation produces great volume of residues, which oxidized through time and release acid solutions. Leachates from tailing heaps are a concern due to the risk of surface water pollution. Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles may remove trace elements from acid leachate collected from an oxidized tailing heap (pH ranged 1.69 ± 0.3 to 2.23 ± 0.16; [SO42-] = 58 ± 0.67 to 60.69 ± 0.39 mmol). Based on the batch experiments under standard conditions, the average removal efficiency was 96%, 92%, 86%, and 67% for Cd, Pb, Zn, and Cu, respectively. The Zn adsorption was modeled by the Freundlich equation, but Cd, Cu, and Pb isotherms do not fit to Freundlich nor Lagmuir equations. Adsorption and other mechanisms occur during trace elements removal by hydroxyapatite. In the polymetallic system, trace elements saturate the specific surface of hydroxyapatite in the following order Zn, Cd, Cu, and Pb. The pH values must be higher than 7.5 to adsorb trace elements. The dose of 3.8% of hydroxyapatite to acid mine drainage removed efficiently > 80% of the soluble Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn, Cd, Ni, and Pb: 4020.0, 37.3, 34.8, 432.0, 4.4, 0.7, and 0.11 mg L-1 from leachate A and 3357.1, 46.6, 27.8, 569.0, 4.7, 0.6, and 1.7 from leachate B, respectively. The application of 0.7% of hydroxyapatite decreased the extractable Pb in unoxidized tailing heaps from 272 to 100 mg kg-1. It is likely to use hydroxyapatite to control trace element mobility from mine residues to surrounding soils and surface water.
