Li D, Jiang H, Luo Z, Geng W, Zhu J. Preparation and Adsorption Performance of Boron Adsorbents Derived from Modified Waste Feathers. Polymers (Basel) 2024; 16:1365. [PMID: 38794557 PMCID: PMC11125364 DOI: 10.3390/polym16101365] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Revised: 05/08/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
This research focuses on modifying discarded feathers by grafting glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto their surface through thiolation, followed by an epoxy ring-opening reaction with N-methyl-D-glucamine (NMDG) to synthesize feather-based boron adsorbents. Optimization of the adsorbent preparation conditions was achieved through single-factor experiments, varying temperature, time, GMA concentration, and initiator dosage. The synthesized adsorbent (F-g-GMA-NMDG) underwent characterization using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The adsorption behavior of the adsorbent was studied, and its boron adsorption capacity at different temperatures was determined through static adsorption kinetic curves. Analysis of adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamics was conducted. Results indicate that the boron adsorption process by F-g-GMA-NMDG follows a pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption process is endothermic, with higher temperatures promoting adsorption efficiency. Gibbs free energy (ΔG) confirms the spontaneity of the adsorption process. Enhanced adsorption efficacy was observed under neutral and acidic pH conditions. After four cycles, the adsorbent maintained its adsorption efficiency, demonstrating its stability and potential for reuse. This study provides novel insights into both the treatment of discarded feathers and the development of boron adsorbents.

Abstract
The numerous oxidation states of the element boron bring great challenges in containing its contamination in receptor bodies. This scenario increases significantly due to the widespread use of boron compounds in various industries in recent years. For this reason, the removal of this contaminant is receiving worldwide attention. Although adsorption is a promising method in boron removal, finding suitable adsorbents, that is, those with high efficiency, and feasible remains a constant challenge. Hence, this review presents the boron removal methods in comparison to costs of adsorbents, reaction mechanisms, economic viability, continuous bed application, and regeneration capacity. In addition, the approach of multivariate algorithms in the solution of multiobjective problems can enable the optimized conditions of dosage of adsorbents and coagulants, pH, and initial concentration of boron. Therefore, this review sought to comprehensively and critically demonstrate strategic issues that may guide the choice of method and adsorbent or coagulant material in future research for bench and industrial scale boron removal.

Abstract
The occurrence of boron in low concentration is essential; however, a higher concentration of boron source in water has a toxic effect on humans as well as have retard effect on agricultural plant growth. Thus, the affordable and facile method to remediate water from higher boron concentrations is highly demanded. This report explores the ability of naturally occurring sustainable bio-waste os sepiae (cuttlefish bone, CFB) as an effective adsorbent for the removal of boron from water. Chemical activation of the os sepiae powder was examined to improve the efficiency of boron adsorption. A batch adsorption study for boron considering various parameters such as chemical modification of os sepiae, pH, initial boron concentration, and the temperature was scrutinized. Untreated (CFB), alkali-treated (CFB-D) and acid-treated (CFB-A) os sepiae powders were investigated and the adsorption capacities reached up to 53.8 ± 0.04 mg/g, 66.4 ± 0.02 mg/g and 69.8 ± 0.02 mg/g, respectively, at optimal pH 8 and 25 °C. Boron adsorption by CFB, CFB-D, and CFB-A were well fitted with the linear Freundlich adsorption isotherm model with a correlation coefficient of 99.4%, 99.8%, and 99.7% respectively. Thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption of boron by CFB is an exothermic process and more feasible at a lower temperature around 25 °C. Moreover, detailed morphological and chemical characterization of the influence of adsorbed boron on adsorbents was conducted and discussed. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis spectra confirms the involvement of various functional groups including amino, carbonate (CO3)2-, and hydroxyl groups on the adsorbent in the adsorption mechanisms for boron removal. The results indicate that CFB can be an excellent example for the recycling and reuse of biowaste for water remediation.

Abstract
Boron overabundance in aquatic environment raises severe concerns about the environment and human health because it is toxic to various crops and induces many human and animal diseases with long-term consequences. In response to the boron pollution of water resources and the difficulty of eliminating boron from water for production and living purposes, this article summarizes the progress in research on boron removal technology, addressing the following aspects: (1) the reasons for the difficulty of removing boron from water (boron chemistry); (2) ecological/biological toxicity and established regulations; (3) analysis of different existing processes (membrane processes, resin, adsorption, chemical precipitation, (electric) coagulation, extraction, and combined methods) in terms of their mechanisms, effectiveness, and limitations; (4) prospects for future studies and possible improvements in applicability and recyclability. The focus of this paper is thus to provide a comprehensive summary of reported deboronation processes to date, which will definitely identify directions for the development of boron removal technology in the future.

Abstract
Controllable ion transport through nanochannels is crucial for biological and artificial membrane systems. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with regular and tunable nanochannels are emerging as an ideal material platform to develop synthetic membranes for ion transport. However, ion exclusion by COF membranes remains challenging because most COF materials have large-sized nanochannels leading to nonselective transport of small ions. Here we develop ionic COF membranes (iCOFMs) to control ion transport through charged framework nanochannels, the interior surfaces of which are covered with arrayed sulfonate groups to render superior charge density. The overlap of an electrical double layer in charged nanochannels blocks the entry of co-ions, narrows their passageways, and concomitantly restrains the permeation of counterions via the charge balance. These highly charged large-sized nanochannels within the iCOFM enable ion exclusion while maintaining intrinsically high water permeability. Our results reveal possibilities for controllable ion transport based on COF membranes for water purification, ionic separation, sensing, and energy conversion.

Abstract
Membrane technologies have found a significant application in separation processes in an exceeding range of industrial fields. The crucial part that is decided regarding the efficiency and effectivity of separation is the type of membrane. The membranes deal with separation problems, working under the various mechanisms of transportation of selected species. This review compares significant types of entrapped matter (ions, compounds, and particles) within membrane technology. The ion-exchange membranes, molecularly imprinted membranes, smart membranes, and adsorptive membranes are investigated. Here, we focus on the selective separation through the above types of membranes and detect their preparation methods. Firstly, the explanation of transportation and preparation of each type of membrane evaluated is provided. Next, the working and application phenomena are evaluated. Finally, the review discusses the membrane modification methods and briefly provides differences in the properties that occurred depending on the type of materials used and the modification protocol.

Abstract
Discharged hospital wastewater contains various pathogenic microorganisms, antibiotic groups, toxic organic compounds, radioactive elements, and ionic pollutants. These contaminants harm the environment and human health causing the spread of disease. Thus, effective treatment of hospital wastewater is an urgent task for sustainable development. Membranes, with controllable porous and nonporous structures, have been rapidly developed for molecular separations. In particular, membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology demonstrated high removal efficiency toward organic compounds and low waste sludge production. To further enhance the separation efficiency and achieve material recovery from hospital waste streams, novel concepts of MBRs and their applications are rapidly evolved through hybridizing novel membranes (non hydrophilic ultrafiltration/microfiltration) into the MBR units (hybrid MBRs) or the MBR as a pretreatment step and integrating other membrane processes as subsequent secondary purification step (integrated MBR-membrane systems). However, there is a lack of reviews on the latest advancement in MBR technologies for hospital wastewater treatment, and analysis on its major challenges and future trends. This review started with an overview of main pollutants in common hospital waste-water, followed by an understanding on the key performance indicators/criteria in MBR membranes (i.e., solute selectivity) and processes (e.g., fouling). Then, an in-depth analysis was provided into the recent development of hybrid MBR and integrated MBR-membrane system concepts, and applications correlated with wastewater sources, with a particular focus on hospital wastewaters. It is anticipated that this review will shed light on the knowledge gaps in the field, highlighting the potential contribution of hybrid MBRs and integrated MBR-membrane systems toward global epidemic prevention.

Abstract
Excess boron in water could result in a critical hazard to plants and humans. Traditional treatment approaches cannot efficiently remove boron from water, especially during seawater desalination using reverse osmosis technology. Achieving satisfactory adsorption capacity and rate for boron remains an unmet goal for decades. Herein, we report cellulose-derived polyols as high-performance adsorbents that can rapidly remove boron and organic pollutants from water. Cellulose-derived polyols were synthesized from saccharides and cellulose via controlled radical polymerization and click reaction. Remarkably, CA@NMDG can adsorb boron with an astonishing capacity of ~34 mg g-1 in 10 min, which surpasses all those cellulose-based materials reported thus far, meanwhile, much faster than those of commercial adsorption resin. Moreover, cellulose-derived polyols also showed high removal efficiencies (70-98% in several minutes) toward certain organic pollutants, including Congo red and Reactive Blue 19. The water-insoluble characteristic of cellulose-derived polyols is advantageous to be separated from the treated sewage after adsorption for reuse. This work provides a novel insight into the fabrication of safe, fast, and high-capacity cellulose adsorbents for water purification.

Abstract
The anthropogenic emission of boron to river has become a serious problem that deteriorates the water quality and endangers the ecosystem. Although boron is a micronutrient, it is toxic to plants, animals and humans upon exposure. In this review, we first present the sources of the boron-containing streams and their composition, and then summarize the recent progress of boron removal methods based on adsorption and coagulation systematically. The boron-spiked streams are produced from coal-fired and geothermal power plants, the manufacturing and the activities of oil/gas excavation and mining. The adsorbents for boron removal are classified into the ones functionalized by chelating groups, the ones on the basis of clays or metal oxide. Three subgroups reside in the coagulation approach: electrocoagulation, chemical precipitation and chemical oxo-precipitation. The hybrid technology that combines membrane process and adsorption/coagulation was covered as well. To provide a comprehensive view of each method, we addressed the reaction mechanism, specified the strength and weakness and summarized the progress in the past 5 years. Ultimately, the prospective for future research and the possible improvement on applicability and recyclability were proposed.

Abstract
Blast furnace slag (BFS) is generated as a by-product in the ironmaking process, and hence, the development of a recycling system for BFS waste is important. In this study, the calcium component of BFS obtained from a steel company in Japan was successfully used as raw material of the synthesis of metaettringite. Metaettringite has been recently considered for as an adsorbent for boron, which is toxic to humans and animals. The BFS used was amorphous, and mainly consisted of CaO, SiO2, Al2O3, and MgO; in particular, it contained 42.82 mass % CaO. The X-ray diffraction pattern and Fourier transform infrared spectrum of the synthesized sample indicated the formation of metaettringite. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy observations revealed its needle-like morphology. The synthesized metaettringite adsorbed 1.189 mg-B/g-adsorbent in 240 min, which was approximately 25 times greater than that achieved using the parent BFS. The metaettringite can reduce the boron concentration to below the uniform effluent standard in industrial wastewater in Japan (16 mg/L).

Abstract
Adsorption plays an important role in seawater desalination, wastewater treatment, and, especially, boron removal from natural aqueous systems. In this paper, two sponge-like multifunctional polymers based on a cyclodextrin backbone were synthesized and used as adsorbents for the removal of boron, methylene blue (MB), methyl orange (MO), and phenol. The syntheses were carried out by esterification, atom transfer polymerization, and nucleophilic addition reaction. The polymers were characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, XRD, XPS, and SEM. The performance of the two different adsorbents was investigated considering the effect of pH, initial concentration, and the anions and cations in an aqueous solution of borates. The experimental data were fitted with an adsorption isothermal model, adsorption kinetic model and other models. Both adsorbents exhibited high adsorption capacities (B: 31.05 mg/g and 20.45 mg/g, MB: 29.43 mg/g and 32.29 mg/g, MO: 47.36 mg/g and 49.23 mg/g, phenol: 5.04 mg/g and 4.35 mg/g, respectively) and a fast adsorption rate. The boron adsorption was found to be an exothermic process. The adsorbents show promising potential for the removal of boron and benzene-containing organic pollutants from aqueous solution.

Abstract
The separation properties of polyamide reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membranes, widely applied for desalination and water reuse, are constrained by the permeability-selectivity upper bound. Although thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes incorporating nanomaterials exhibit enhanced water permeance, their rejection is only moderately improved or even impaired due to agglomeration of nanomaterials and formation of defects. A novel type of TFN membranes featuring an interlayer of nanomaterials (TFNi) has emerged in recent years. These novel TFNi membranes show extraordinary improvement in water flux (e.g., up to an order of magnitude enhancement) along with better selectivity. Such enhancements can be achieved by a wide selection of nanomaterials, ranging from nanoparticles, one-/two-dimensional materials, to interfacial coatings. The use of nanostructured interlayers not only improves the formation of polyamide rejection layers but also provides an optimized water transport path, which enables TFNi membranes to potentially overcome the longstanding trade-off between membrane permeability and selectivity. Furthermore, TFNi membranes can potentially enhance the removal of heavy metals and micropollutants, which is critical for many environmental applications. This review critically examines the recent developments of TFNi membranes and discusses the underlying mechanisms and design criteria. Their potential environmental applications are also highlighted.

Abstract
Petroleum processing wastewater (PPW) is a complex mixture of free, soluble, and emulsive hydrocarbons that often contain heavy metals and/or solid particles. As these hazardous constituents can accumulate in human beings and the environment, exposure to the PPW can have harmful effects in various respects. The use of environmental nanotechnologies (E-Nano) is considered an attractive option to resolve the problems associated with PPW. Among different treatment technologies, E-Nano-based sorption (adsorption/absorption) and membrane filtration approaches have been proven to have outstanding efficacy in remediation of PPW pollutants. It is, however, crucial to determine the appropriate technological option (e.g., low-cost operational conditions) for the practical application of such technologies. In this review, the potential of E-Nano-based sorption and membrane technologies in the treatment of various PPW pollutants is discussed based on their performances in comparison to traditional technologies. Their suitability is evaluated further in relation to their merits/disadvantages and economic feasibility with the goal of constructing a perspective map to efficiently implement the E-Nano technologies.

Abstract
Boron adsorption properties of poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) (PSDVB)-based anion-exchange resins with surface-grafted N-methyl-d-glucamine (NMDG) depend strongly on their local surface compositions, structures, and interfacial interactions. Distinct boron adsorption sites have been identified and quantified, and interactions between borate anions and hydroxyl groups of NMDG surface moieties have been established. A combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy were used to characterize the atomic-level compositions and structures that directly influence the adsorption of borate anions on the NMDG-functionalized resin surface. Surface-enhanced dynamic-nuclear-polarization (DNP)-NMR enabled dilute (3 atom % N) tertiary alkyl amines and quaternary ammonium ions of the NMDG groups to be detected and distinguished with unprecedented sensitivity and resolution at natural abundance 15N (0.4%). Two-dimensional (2D) solid-state 11B{1H}, 13C{1H}, and 11B{11B} NMR analyses provide direct atomic-scale evidence for interactions of borate anions with the NMDG moieties on the resin surfaces, which form stable mono- and bischelate complexes. FT-IR spectra reveal displacements in the stretching vibrational frequencies associated with the O-H and N-H bonds of NMDG groups that corroborate the formation of chelate complexes on the resin surfaces. The atomic-level compositions and structures are related to boron adsorption properties of resin materials synthesized under different conditions, which have important remediation applications.

Abstract
Boron removal remains a major barrier to water purification, it is important to develop a specialized adsorption membrane for boron removal. By means of a simple and effective method, a hydrophilic membrane for boron removal with a polyhydroxy functional group on the surface was prepared. Firstly, a polysulfone (PSF) membrane was modified by co-depositing polyethyleneimine (PEI) with dopamine (DA) in one-step to produce amine-rich surfaces, then the DA/PEI-functionalized membranes were reacted with glycidol, with the prepared membranes corresponding to PSF-PDA/PEI membranes and PSF-diol membranes. The prepared membranes were characterized by water-uptake, FTIR, (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) XPS, (Field emission scanning electron microscope) FESEM, and zeta potential measurements. The hydrophilicity of the membrane was characterized by the static water contact angle (WCA) test. In addition, we systematically studied the impact of initial boron concentration, chelating time, and pH value on boron removal performance. The results showed that the PSF-diol membrane had strong hydrophilicity with a WCA of about 38°. The maximum adsorption capacity of boron appeared to be 1.61 mmol/g within 10 min at a boron concentration of 300 mg/L. Adsorption kinetics showed that saturation adsorption can be achieved in minutes at the initial concentration of 5 mg/L, which is beneficial to a rapid filtration process.

The Use of Lanthanum Ions and Chitosan for Boron Elimination from Aqueous Solutions. Polymers (Basel) 2019; 11:polym11040718. [PMID: 31010215 PMCID: PMC6523116 DOI: 10.3390/polym11040718] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2019] [Revised: 04/07/2019] [Accepted: 04/14/2019] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Boron is an essential element for plants and living organisms; however, it can be harmful if its concentration in the environment is too high. In this paper, lanthanum(III) ions were introduced to the structure of chitosan via an encapsulation technique and the obtained hydrogel (La-CTS) was used for the elimination of the excess of B(III) from modelling solutions. The reaction between boric acid and hydroxyl groups bound to the lanthanum coordinated by chitosan active centres was the preponderant mechanism of the bio-adsorption removal process. The results demonstrated that La-CTS removed boric acid from the aqueous solution more efficiently than either lanthanum hydroxide or native chitosan hydrogel, respectively. When the initial boron concentration was 100 mg/dm3, the maximum adsorption capacity of 11.1 ± 0.3 mg/g was achieved at pH 5 and the adsorption time of 24 h. The successful introduction of La(III) ions to the chitosan backbone was confirmed by Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy, Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, X-Ray Diffraction, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy, and Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy. Due to its high-performance boron adsorption-desorption cycle and convenient form, La-CTS seems to be a promising bio-adsorbent for water treatment.

Abstract
Three-dimensionally ordered macroporous cross-linked poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (3DOM) was constructed by water-soluble colloidal crystal templates and further functionalized with N-methyl-d-glucamine (NMDG) to prepare superhydrophilic adsorbents for boron removal from natural seawater. 3DOM adsorbents possess features of interconnected macropore structure, ultrathin pore wall, and superhydrophilicity, making efficient adsorption possible. The effect of cross-linking degree on the adsorption capacity toward boron was investigated. The NMDG-modified 3DOM adsorbent with rich vicinal diol functional groups showed superhydrophilicity and outstanding performance of adsorption. Significantly, its adsorption effect in boron removal from natural seawater indicated that the concentration of boron in natural seawater could decline to 0.16 from 4.24 mg·L-1 when the adsorbent dosage was 1 g·L-1, whereas the boron rejection reached 96.2%. After 10 regeneration-adsorption cycles, the adsorption capacity of 3DOM adsorbent remained over 85% of the initial value and the ordered structure was hardly changed. Additionally, 3DOM adsorbent could be directly and quickly separated from the seawater by a filter mesh of 16 mesh number. Research shows that the 3DOM adsorbent exhibits an adsorption performance for practical applications in boron removal from natural seawater.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to determine the optimum parameters of electrocoagulation process in treatment of boron in low concentrations. Especially, studies on electrode optimization in low boron concentrated waters are insufficient. Therefore, the effect of electrode combination (Al-Al, Al-Fe, Al-SS, Fe-Al, Fe-Fe, and Fe-SS), pH (5-9), current density (8-24 mA cm-2), distance (1-3 cm), and electrolysis time (10-90 min) on treatment of boron containing wastewater is studied to obtain maximum removal efficiency. The maximum removal efficiency of boron is obtained as 95.6%. Operation conditions for maximum removal are the electrode combination of Fe-Al, current density of 16 mA cm-2, pH 7.0, concentration of 30 mg L-1 and the reaction time of 70 min. Operating cost of the electrocoagulation process is calculated as 2.35 $ m-3. This study indicates that the electrocoagulation process can be successfully applied in order to treat boron-polluted wastewaters at low initial concentrations.
