Abstract
This article describes the production of bioadsorbents coming from seven different kinds of organic waste, produced in huge quantities in households, in a two-stage process. In order to determine the influence of the process parameters of carbonization (I stage) and activation with potassium hydroxide solution (II stage), the following analysis of the physicochemical properties of each sample at each stage processing was performed: base elemental composition, structure properties, surface morphology, thermal stability, crystallinity, and transmittance spectra characteristic bands. There was a lack of research on samples after each stage of waste processing in the literature. Addressing this allowed us to evaluate the transformative potential of each kind of organic waste included in the research and select the best waste for the production of bioadsorbents commonly used in environmental protection. Moreover, the results were compared with the ones in the literature. The utilization of particular kinds of organic waste seems to be especially important taking into account the strategy of waste management and sustainable development.

[PMID: 38144862 PMCID: PMC10740018 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.100903] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2023] [Revised: 09/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Biochar is a carbonaceous solid substance produced by heating biomass without using air. This research aimed to create and evaluate local carbonization pyrolysis using a screw conveyor and filtration equipment. Date palm frond (DPF) biochar was studied and tested at pyrolysis temperatures of 320, 390, and 460 °C, as well as feeding rates of 60, 90, and 120 kg/h. The physicochemical parameters of DPF biochar were evaluated using SEM and FTIR. When the pyrolysis temperature was raised from 320 to 450 °C, and the feed rates were reduced from 120 to 60 kg/h, the biochar yield of DPF and volatiles fell. At 460 °C and 60 kg/h, the maximum ash and fixed carbon content were 11.73 and 77.61 %, respectively. As the feed rate decreased and the temperature increased, the H and O values (1.96 and 2.62 %, respectively) of DPF biochar decreased considerably; the C and N values (83.60 and 0.24 %, respectively) trended in opposite directions. The BET surface area and pore volume increased as a result of the micropore surface area and volume at higher temperatures and lower feeding rates, but water holding capacity increased from 6.04 gwater/10 g at 320 °C to 6.78 gwater/10 g at 390 °C (60 kg/h). The results showed that the heating temperature increased and the feeding rate decreased; phosphorus) P(and magnesium (Mg) increased significantly, whereas the levels of potassium (K) and calcium (Ca) showed a non-significant increase. Furthermore, as the pyrolysis temperature increased, pH and EC increased from 7.90 to 10.96 and 2.91 to 4.25 dSm-1, respectively, while CEC declined; however, there were no significant changes in CEC. DPF biochar demonstrated enhanced macro porosity and surface area at 460 °C and 60 kg/h, making it acceptable for agricultural use as a soil supplement.

Abstract
Sorption of 226Ra from produced water with oil production on manganese oxide nanoparticles loaded on walnut shell media was investigated using batch-type technique. The results showed that 226Ra is effectively adsorbed onto the adsorbent with equilibrium time of approximately 30 min. Removal efficiency of 226Ra from produced water depends mainly on the adsorbent dose and concentration of associated ions; removal efficiency decreased when their concentrations increase. The maximum adsorption capacity is reached 58 Bq g-1. The adsorbent is effective and suitable for removing 226Ra ions from the produced water under the studied conditions in this work.

Abstract
Radionuclide-contaminated water is carcinogenic and poses numerous severe health risks and environmental dangers. The activated carbon (AC)-based adsorption technique has great potential for treating radionuclide-contaminated water due to its simple design, high efficiency, wide pH range, quickness, low cost and environmental friendliness. This critical review first provides a brief overview of the concerned radionuclides with their associated health hazards as well as different removal techniques and their efficacy of removing them. Following this overview, this study summarizes the surface characteristics and adsorption capabilities of AC derived from different biomass precursors. It compares the adsorption performance of AC to other adsorbents, such as zeolite, graphene, carbon nano-tubes and metal-organic frameworks. Furthermore, this study highlights the different factors that influence the physical characteristics of AC and adsorption capacity, including contact time, solution pH, initial concentration of radionuclides, the initial dosage of the adsorbent, and adsorption temperature. The theoretical models of adsorption isotherm and kinetics, along with their fitting parameter values for AC/radionuclide pairs, are also reviewed. Finally, the modification procedures of pristine AC, factors determining AC characteristics and the impact of modifying agents on the adsorption ability of AC are elucidated in this study; therefore, further research and development can be promoted for designing a highly efficient and practical adsorption-based radionuclide removal system.

Enhanced Adsorption of Sulfonamides by Attapulgite-Doped Biochar Prepared with Calcination. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27228076.

Abstract
The extensive use of sulfonamides seriously threatens the safety and stability of the ecological environment. Developing green inexpensive and effective adsorbents is critically needed for the elimination of sulfonamides from wastewater. The non-modified biochar exhibited limited adsorption capacity for sulfonamides. In this study, the attapulgite-doped biochar adsorbent (ATP/BC) was produced from attapulgite and rice straw by calcination. Compared with non-modified biochar, the specific surface area of ATP/BC increased by 73.53−131.26%, and the average pore width of ATP/BC decreased 1.77−3.60 nm. The removal rates of sulfadiazine and sulfamethazine by ATP/BC were 98.63% and 98.24%, respectively, at the mass ratio of ATP to rice straw = 1:10, time = 4 h, dosage = 2 g∙L−1, pH = 5, initial concentration = 1 mg∙L−1, and temperature = 20 °C. A pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R2 = 0.99) and the Freundlich isothermal model (R2 = 0.99) well described the process of sulfonamide adsorption on ATP/BC. Thermodynamic calculations showed that the adsorption behavior of sulfonamides on the ATP/BC was an endothermic (ΔH > 0), random (ΔS > 0), spontaneous reaction (ΔG < 0) that was dominated by chemisorption (−20 kJ∙mol−1 > ΔG). The potential adsorption mechanisms include electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding, π−π interaction, and Lewis acid−base interactions. This study provides an optional material to treat sulfonamides in wastewater and groundwater.

Nanoporous carbon materials as a sustainable alternative for the remediation of toxic impurities and environmental contaminants: A review. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 838:155943.

Abstract
Due to rapidly deteriorating water resources, the world is looking forward to a sustainable alternative for the remediation of noxious pollutants such as heavy metals and organic and gaseous contaminants. To address this global issue of environmental pollution, nanoporous carbon materials (NPCMs) can be used as a one-stop solution. They are widely applied as adsorbents for many toxic impurities and environmental contaminants. The present review provides a detailed overview of the role of different synthesis factors on the porous characteristics of carbon materials, activating agents, reagent-precursor ratio and their potential application in the remediation. Findings revealed that synthetic parameters result in the formation of microporous NPCMs (SBET: >4000 m3/g; VTotal (cm3/g) ≥ 2; VMicro (cm3/g) ≥ 1), micromesoporous (SBET: >2500 m3/g; VTotal (cm3/g) ≥ 1.5; VMicro (cm3/g) ≥ 0.7) and mesoporous (SBET: >2500 m3/g; VTotal (cm3/g) ≥ 1.5; VMicro (cm3/g) ≥ 0.5) NPCMs. Moreover, it was observed that a narrow pore size distribution (0.5-2.0 nm) yields excellent results in the remediation of noxious contaminants. Further, chemical activating agents such as NaOH, KOH, ZnCl2, and H3PO4 were compared. It was observed that activating agents KОН, H3PO4, and ZnCl2 were generally used and played a significant role in the possible large-scale production and commercialization of NPCMs. Thus, it can be interpreted that with a well-planned strategy for the synthesis, NPCMs with a "tuned" porosity for a specific application, in particular, microporosity for the accumulation and adsorption of energetically important gases (CO2, CH4, H2), micro-mesoporosity and mesoporosity for high adsorption capacity for towards metal ions and a large number of dyes, respectively.

Abstract
Developing green inexpensive and effective adsorbents is critically needed for elimination of antibiotics from contaminated water. The current study assessed the nanostructured activated biochar (nPPAB) derived from pomegranate peels (PP) as a promising sorbent for efficient removal of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin (CIP). The results affirm that the second order and Langmuir models fit well to adsorption kinetics and equilibrium data respectively. The nPPAB adsorption capacity of Langmuir (qmax) for CIP was 142.86 mg g-1 which is 26.85 times greater than that of bulk PP. Hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction, hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions are the dominant mechanisms of CIP adsorption by nPPAB. The efficiency of nPPAB for CIP removal from real wastewater using batch and packed-bed reactor were 89.94 and 84.74% respectively. This study clearly demonstrated the substantial capacity of nPPAB as an ecofriendly, feasible, and in-expensive adsorbent for successful elimination of CIP from wastewater.

Abstract
Porous materials constitute an attractive research field due to their high specific surfaces; high chemical stabilities; abundant pores; special electrical, optical, thermal, and mechanical properties; and their often higher reactivities. These materials are currently generating a great deal of enthusiasm, and they have been used in large and diverse applications, such as those relating to sensors and biosensors, catalysis and biocatalysis, separation and purification techniques, acoustic and electrical insulation, transport gas or charged species, drug delivery, and electrochemistry. Porous carbons are an important class of porous materials that have grown rapidly in recent years. They have the advantages of a tunable pore structure, good physical and chemical stability, a variable specific surface, and the possibility of easy functionalization. This gives them new properties and allows them to improve their performance for a given application. This review paper intends to understand how porous carbons involve the removal of pollutants from water, e.g., heavy metal ions, dyes, and organic or inorganic molecules. First, a general overview description of the different precursors and the manufacturing methods of porous carbons is illustrated. The second part is devoted to reporting some applications such using porous carbon materials as an adsorbent. It appears that the use of porous materials at different scales for these applications is very promising for wastewater treatment industries.

Abstract
It is very necessary to produce bio-activated carbon for special use with easy procedure and low cost. One kind of huge surface area microporous bio-material was successfully prepared from agricultural residues (peanut shell, Arachis hypogaea Linn.) and beneficially applied to control elemental mercury (Hg0) in simulated coal-fired flue gas in this study. The possible effects of experimental factors including activator, reaction temperature, and flue components were investigated. The physicochemical properties of the prepared adsorbents were characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (SEM-EDX), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicated that the peanut shell activated carbon presented excellent Hg0 removal efficiency near 90% at 150 °C. The characterization analysis indicated that the removal characteristics were governed by both physical adsorption and chemical adsorption. The chemisorbed mercury on the activated carbon was mainly distinguished into mercuric chloride (HgCl2) and mercuric oxide (HgO). The presence of C-Cl and O* promoted Hg0 into HgCl2 and HgO. Zinc chloride could not only improve the micropore quantity of activated carbon but also have remarkably positive effects on the elemental mercury removal. This study provided a practical and easy preparation method of bio-activated carbon for Hg0 removal with low cost. Graphical Abstract.

Abstract
Nanoporous carbons have been prepared from mangosteen peels-derived chars by physical activation under CO2 flow as a function of temperature. As an example of circular bioeconomy, these sustainable adsorbents were used to remove atrazine, a common pesticide from the agroindustry. Several adsorption models such as Langmuir (two parameter), Sips and Redlich-Peterson (three parameters) were applied to verify the influence of carbon's properties on the uptake of atrazine. Additional kinetic models (pseudo-first order, pseudo-second order and Avrami's) allowed to establish that a mixture of physisorption and chemisorption describes the interaction between the nanoporous carbons and atrazine. As a general fact, an important diffusion of atrazine from the bulk of solution to the surface of carbons was observed. All samples were able to remove atrazine, but the highest uptake was found in the carbon with the highest contribution of micropores to the total pore of volume and with the lowest content of basic surface groups. Several correlations between the kinetic and equilibrium parameters for the atrazine adsorption were found as a function of the textural properties and surface chemistry. Based on the kinetics and equilibrium parameters, the present work proposes a mechanism for the atrazine adsorption on nanoporous carbons contributing to the understanding of the interactions between pollutant molecules and the surface functional groups on nanoporous carbons in the liquid-solid interface.

Abstract
Treatment of wastewater is becoming a concern of an increasing prominence. Trace amounts of toxic metalloids and heavy metals (HMs) would contaminate large volumes of water. Being present as traces, removal of these ultratrace contaminants from wastewater is challenging. Adsorption of HMs onto raw (RPP) and burnt (BPP) potato peels (PP) is presented in the current treatise. Both adsorbents (RPP and BPP) proved to be efficient in removing Cd(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Fe(II), La(III), Ni(II), and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions. BPP was a more efficient adsorbent compared to RPP. Ecodesign of a model, green adsorbent was structured executing a multivariate approach, design of experiments (DoE). The purpose of using DoE is to maximize the efficiency of BPP (carbonaceous biomass) as a versatile adsorbent. Plackett–Burman design (PBD) was used as a screening phase. Four factors were considered: pH, contact time (CT), heavy metal concentration (HMC), and the adsorbent dose (AD). The Pareto chart of standardized effects shows that the most influential factor is the HMC. These data were confirmed by analysis of variance (ANOVA). Derringer’s function was operated to find the best factorial blend that maximizes the adsorption process. The percentage (%) removal of Cd(II), for example, was maximized hitting 100%. Adsorbent surface characterization was performed using FTIR, BET, SEM, TGA/dTG, and EDX analyses. Adsorption was found to be physisorption that follows Temkin isotherm with sorption energy 66 kJ/mole. Adsorption kinetics was found to be pseudo-first-order. Adsorption capacity (qm) for BPP was 239.64 mg/g. The diffusion inside the particles was very limited, while the initial rate of the adsorption was extremely high as shown by the Elovich plot.

Abstract
This study proposes the use of activated charcoal made from Umbaúba wood as an adsorbent for the removal of naphthenic acid in an aviation kerosene model mixture. The activated charcoal was characterised as mesoporous with a carbon graphite profile and presented pHpzc equal to 10.5. The best working conditions were obtained for activated charcoal levels of <0.09 mm and 300 r min−1. The system reached the equilibrium after 360 min, without significant statistical difference for the pseudo-first- and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The Weber–Morris and Boyd models corroborated the conclusion that adsorption is not controlled only by the intraparticle diffusion step. For the equilibrium study, the adsorptive capacity obtained was of 1.1 g g−1, with the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller model better correlating with the experimental data. Given the results obtained, the activated charcoal demonstrated to have a remarkable potential for removing naphthenic acid in an aviation kerosene model mixture.

Abstract
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes are adsorptive materials that have potential for remediation of organic contaminants in water. Sediment elutriate exposures were undertaken with Ceriodaphnia dubia to compare the toxic effects of diphenhydramine in the presence and absence of sediment and multi-walled carbon nanotubes. In both sediment and solution-only treatments, addition of 0.318 mg/g of carbon nanotubes significantly decreased 48-h mortality relative to control, with a 78.7%-90.1% reduction in treatments with nanotube-amended sediment and 40.7%-53.3% reduction in nanotube-amended water exposures. The greatest degree of relative mortality reduction occurred in sediments containing higher levels of natural organic matter, indicating a potential additive effect.

Abstract
Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and pharmaceutical compounds are classified by the US Environmental Protection Agency as contaminants of emerging concern, with significant research devoted to determining their potential environmental and toxicological effects. Multiwalled carbon nanotubes are known to have a high adsorptive capacity for organic contaminants, leading to potential uses in water remediation; however, there is concern that co-exposure with MWCNTs may alter the bioavailability of organic compounds. Existing studies investigating MWCNT/organic contaminant co-exposures have shown conflicting results, and no study to date has examined the combined effects of MWCNTs and a common pharmaceutical. In the present study, juvenile fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) were exposed to sublethal concentrations of the over-the-counter antihistamine diphenhydramine (DPH) in the presence of natural sediment for 10 d, with some treatment groups receiving MWCNTs. Addition of MWCNTs did not have a protective effect on DPH-related growth inhibition, and did not reduce the whole-body burden of DPH in exposed fish. Mass-balance calculations indicated that significant amounts of DPH were adsorbed to MWCNTs, and DPH concentrations in water and sediment were commensurately reduced. Bioconcentration factor and biota-sediment accumulation factor increased in the presence of MWCNTs, indicating that P. promelas accumulates DPH adsorbed to MWCNTs in sediment, likely by co-ingestion of MWCNTs during feeding from the sediment surface.
