Abstract
In recent years, the treatment of organic pollutants has become a global concern due to the threat to human health posed by emerging contaminants, especially antibiotic contamination. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) can solve the organic pollution problem well, which have been identified as a promising solution for the treatment of hard-to-handle organic compounds including antibiotic contaminants. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are excellent catalysts because of their flexible tunability, favorable thermal stability, abundant active sites, and facile exchangeability of intercalated anions. This paper conducted a systematic review of LDHs-based materials used for common antibiotic removal by three significant AOP technologies, such as photocatalysis, the Fenton-like processes, and peroxymonosulfate catalysis. The degradation effects studied in various studies were reviewed, and the mechanisms were discussed in detail based on the type of AOPs. Finally, the challenges and the application trends of AOPs that may arise were prospected. The aim of this study is to suggest ways to provide practical guidance for the screening and improvement of LDH materials and the rational selection of AOPs to achieve efficient antibiotic degradation. This could lead to the development of more efficient and environmentally friendly materials and processes for degrading antibiotics, with significant implications for our ecological conservation by addressing water pollution.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are class of porous coordination polymers made up of organic building blocks joined together by covalent bonding through thermodynamic and controlled reversible polymerization reactions. This review discussed versatile applications of COFs for remediation of wastewater containing dyes, emphasizing the advantages of both pristine and modified materials in adsorption, membrane separation, and advanced oxidations processes. The excellent performance of COFs towards adsorption and membrane filtration has been centered to their higher crystallinity and porosity, exhibiting exceptionally high surface area, pore size and pore volumes. Thus, they provide more active sites for trapping the dye molecules. On one hand, the photocatalytic performance of the COFs was attributed to their semiconducting properties, and when coupled with other functional semiconducting materials, they achieve good mechanical and thermal stabilities, positive light response, and narrow band gap, a typical characteristic of excellent photocatalysts. As such, COFs and their composites have demonstrated excellent potentialities for the elimination of the dyes.

Occurrence, fate, and potential risk of pharmaceutical pollutants in agriculture: Challenges and environmentally friendly solutions. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 899:165323. [PMID: 37422238 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.165323] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2023] [Revised: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 07/10/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, pharmaceutical active compounds (PhACs) have attained global prevalence. The behavior of PhACs in agricultural soils is complex and depends on several factors, such as the nature of the compounds and their physicochemical characteristics, which affect their fate and potential threats to human health, ecosystems, and the environment. The detection of residual pharmaceutical content is possible in both agricultural soils and environmental matrices. PhACs are commonly found in agricultural soil, with concentrations varying significantly, ranging from as low as 0.048 ng g-1 to as high as 1420.76 mg kg-1. The distribution and persistence of PhACs in agriculture can lead to the leaching of these toxic pollutants into surface water, groundwater, and vegetables/plants, resulting in human health risks and environmental pollution. Biological degradation or bioremediation plays a critical role in environmental protection and efficiently eliminates contamination by hydrolytic and/or photochemical reactions. Membrane bioreactors (MBRs) have been investigated as the most recent approach for the treatment of emerging persistent micropollutants, including PhACs, from wastewater sources. MBR- based technologies have proven to be effective in eliminating pharmaceutical compounds, achieving removal rates of up to 100%. This remarkable outcome is primarily facilitated by the processes of biodegradation and metabolization. In addition, phytoremediation (i.e., constructed wetlands), microalgae-based technologies, and composting can be highly efficient in remediating PhACs in the environment. The exploration of key mechanisms involved in pharmaceutical degradation has revealed a range of approaches, such as phytoextraction, phytostabilization, phytoaccumulation, enhanced rhizosphere biodegradation, and phytovolatilization. The well-known advanced/tertiary removal of sustainable sorption by biochar, activated carbon, chitosan, etc. has high potential and yields excellent quality effluents. Adsorbents developed from agricultural by-products have been recognized to eliminate pharmaceutical compounds and are cost-effective and eco-friendly. However, to reduce the potentially harmful impacts of PhACs, it is necessary to focus on advanced technologies combined with tertiary processes that have low cost, high efficiency, and are energy-saving to remove these emerging pollutants for sustainable development.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023:139282.

Abstract
Removal of Metronidazole (MNZ) and Oxytetracycline (OTC) from wastewater by the prepared (C, N codoped)-TiO2/g-C3N4 (Graphitic carbon nitride) was examined. l-Arginine (C, N codoped)-TiO2 and l-Arginine (C, N codoped)-TiO2/g-C3N4 photocatalysts were successfully synthesized through the sol-gel method, and optimal ratio of l-arginine:TiO2, as well as l-arginine/TiO2:g-C3N4, was determined by a kinetic study of photodegradation process. The maximum photocatalytic removal rate (0.065 min-1 for MNZ removal) was observed using 1% l-Arginine-TiO2/g-C3N4 (1:1) under visible light illumination, 2.2 and 6.5 times greater than those of 1% l-Arginine-TiO2 and pure TiO2, respectively. l-Arginine (1%)-TiO2/g-C3N4 (1:1) (co-doped-TCN) was investigated using X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), Photo-luminescence (PL), and Differential Reflectance Spectroscopy (DRS) as the best-performing photocatalyst. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to study the effect of co-doped-TCN dosage (0.5-1.0 g/L), pH of simulated wastewater (4-10), initial concentration of MNZ and OTC (50-100 mg/L), and irradiation time (30-90 min for MNZ and 20-40 min for OTC) on removal efficiency of the antibiotics. Also, their optimum values were determined by RSM. The treated pharmaceutical wastewater showed high biodegradability features with 5-day biological oxygen demand/chemical oxygen demand (BOD5/COD) of 0.51 and 0.46 after 40 and 100 min reaction for OTC and MNZ, respectively. The order of reactive species responsible for the photodegradation of pollutants was •O2─> •OH > h+>1O2. The effect of inorganic anions showed that all anions decreased the removal efficiency of both antibiotics in order of NO3─> Cl─ >SO42─>HPO42─ >HCO3─ for MNZ and NO3─> SO42─ > Cl─ >HPO42─ >HCO3─ for OTC. Also, introducing different oxidants improved the photocatalytic removal efficiency with the order of H2O2>K2S2O8> KBrO3.

Abstract
The multistep chemical modification of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) in the presence of 4-aminophenazone (A-PH) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) has been successfully conducted. The environmental performance of this material has been thoroughly investigated. Crystal violet (CV) and brilliant green (BG) were eliminated by utilising a new hybrid nanocomposite material (A-PH-CMC/MWCNTs) from a simulated textile wastewater solution. Using SEM, EDX, XRD and FTIR spectroscopy methods, the detailed characterisation of A-PH-CMC/MWCNT nanocomposites was investigated. The results indicated that the adsorption capacity was dependent on six factors (e.g., contact duration, starting concentration, adsorbent mass, the effect of the solution pH, temperature and the effect of KNO3). In addition, thermodynamic and regeneration studies have been reported. According to the theories of pseudo-second-order kinetics, the removal process involves chemical adsorption. The experimental results were best suited by the Langmuir model, in which maximum adsorption capacities of 20.83 and 22.42 mg g-1 were predicted for the BG and CV dyes, respectively. The research is a preliminary case study demonstrating the excellent potential of A-PH-CMC/MWCNT nanocomposites as a material for CV and BG dye removal.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has been widely used in the field of pesticides. Integration of nano-pesticides and carbon dot fluorescence can fully utilize the potential for high admission of pesticides on leaves and convenience observation of its distribution and transport in the tissues. In the present study, a fluorescent mesoporous nanosilica with double hollow shells for loading imidacloprid (Im@FL-MSNs) was designed and synthesized. The physical and chemical properties of the imidacloprid nanocarriers were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and N2 adsorption/desorption. When the mass ratio of FL MSNs to imidacloprid is 6:5, Im@FL-MSNs exhibits good fluorescence properties, high loading efficiency (∼30%), great slow-release performance as well as pH controllability. Besides, Im@FL-MSNs can improve the ability of imidacloprid to adhere on the leaf surface of bok choy (Initial contact angled is greater than 80°). Importantly, Im@FL-MSNs did not reduce the biological activity of imidacloprid (LC50 (95% CI) = 1.43 mg/L). It was able to visually study the absorption and distribution of imidacloprid in bok choy plants, and provide theoretical and technical guidance for pesticide reduction.

Abstract
One of the most widely used antibiotics is amoxicillin (AMX), which is the most widely used in humans and animals, but it is discharged metabolically due to its indigestibility. Conventional biological and physicochemical methods for removing AMX from water are not enough to mineralize it; it is only concentrated and transferred to produce new residues that require further processing to remove the new residues. In this research, naked and modified surfaces with TiO2 nanotubes (TiO2,nt) electrophoretically modified with PbO2, IrO2, RuO2, and Ta2O5 were used to evaluate their efficiency in the electrochemical degradation of AMX in acid media (0.1 mol L-1 H2SO4). After their comparison, Pb-Ta 50:50|TiO2,nt|Ti showed the highest removal efficiency of AMX (44.71%) with the lowest specific energy consumption (8.69 ± 0.78 kWh Kg COD-1) and the average instant current efficiency of 26.67 ± 9.19%, in comparison with the others naked and modified surfaces of TiO2,nt∣Ti.

Abstract
Advancement in medication by health care sector has undoubtedly improved our life but at the same time increased the chemical burden on our natural ecosystem. The residuals of pharmaceutical products become part of wastewater streams by different sources such as excretion after their usage, inappropriate way of their disposal during production etc. Hence, they are serious health hazards for human, animal, and aquatic lives. Due to rapid urbanization, the increased demand for clean drinking water is a burning global issue. In this regard it is need of the present era to explore efficient materials which could act as photocatalyst for mitigation of pharmaceuticals in wastewater. Nanohybrid as photocatalyst is one of the widely explored class of materials in photocatalytic degradation of such harmful pollutants. Among these nanohybrids; metal based nanohybrids (metals/metal oxides) and carbon based nanohybrids (carbon nanotubes, graphene, fullerenes etc.) have been explored to remove pharmaceutical drugs. Keeping in view the increasing harmful impacts of pharmaceuticals; the sources of pharmaceuticals in wastewater, their health risk factors and their mitigation using efficient nanohybrids as photocatalysts have been discussed in this review.

Abstract
The outbreak of SARS-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) has become a global health emergency. Although enormous efforts have been made, there is still no effective treatment against the new virus. Herein, a TiO2 supported single-atom nanozyme containing atomically dispersed Ag atoms (Ag-TiO2 SAN) is designed to serve as a highly efficient antiviral nanomaterial. Compared with traditional nano-TiO2 and Ag, Ag-TiO2 SAN exhibits higher adsorption (99.65%) of SARS-CoV2 pseudovirus. This adsorption ability is due to the interaction between SAN and receptor binding domain (RBD) of spike 1 protein of SARS-CoV2. Theoretical calculation and experimental evidences indicate that the Ag atoms of SAN strongly bind to cysteine and asparagine, which are the most abundant amino acids on the surface of spike 1 RBD. After binding to the virus, the SAN/virus complex is typically phagocytosed by macrophages and colocalized with lysosomes. Interestingly, Ag-TiO2 SAN possesses high peroxidase-like activity responsible for reactive oxygen species production under acid conditions. The highly acidic microenvironment of lysosomes could favor oxygen reduction reaction process to eliminate the virus. With hACE2 transgenic mice, Ag-TiO2 SAN showed efficient anti-SARS-CoV2 pseudovirus activity. In conclusion, Ag-TiO2 SAN is a promising nanomaterial to achieve effective antiviral effects for SARS-CoV2.

Abstract
Pharmaceuticals have been recognized for saving billions of lives, but they also appear as a novel group of environmental pollutants. The presence of pharmaceutically active residues in seawater, surface water, wastewater treatment plants, sludges, and soils has been widely reported. Their persistence in the environment for extended durations exerts various adverse consequences, such as gene toxicity, hormonal interference, antibiotic resistance, sex organs imposition, and many others. Various methodologies have been envisioned for their removal from the aqueous media. Different processes have been restricted due to high cost, inefficient removal, generation of toxic materials, and high capital requirement. The employment of nanostructured materials to mitigate pharmaceutical contaminants has been increasing during the last decades. The adsorptive nanomaterials have a high surface area, low cost, eco-friendliness, and high affinity for inorganic and organic molecules. In this review, we have documented the rising concerns of environmental pharmaceutical contamination and their remediation by applications of nanomaterials. Nanomaterials could be a robust candidate for the removal of an array of environmental contaminants in water.

Abstract
The feasibility of in-silico techniques, together with the computational framework, has been applied to predictive bioremediation aiming to clean-up contaminants, toxicity evaluation, and possibilities for the degradation of complex recalcitrant compounds. Emerging contaminants from different industries have posed a significant hazard to the environment and public health. Given current bioremediation strategies, it is often a failure or inadequate for sustainable mitigation of hazardous pollutants. However, clear-cut vital information about biodegradation is quite incomplete from a conventional remediation techniques perspective. Lacking complete information on bio-transformed compounds leads to seeking alternative methods. Only scarce information about the transformed products and toxicity profile is available in the published literature. To fulfill this literature gap, various computational or in-silico technologies have emerged as alternating techniques, which are being recognized as in-silico approaches for bioremediation. Molecular docking, molecular dynamics simulation, and biodegradation pathways predictions are the vital part of predictive biodegradation, including the Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR), Quantitative structure-biodegradation relationship (QSBR) model system. Furthermore, machine learning (ML), artificial neural network (ANN), genetic algorithm (GA) based programs offer simultaneous biodegradation prediction along with toxicity and environmental fate prediction. Herein, we spotlight the feasibility of in-silico remediation approaches for various persistent, recalcitrant contaminants while traditional bioremediation fails to mitigate such pollutants. Such could be addressed by exploiting described model systems and algorithm-based programs. Furthermore, recent advances in QSAR modeling, algorithm, and dedicated biodegradation prediction system have been summarized with unique attributes.

Abstract
Water contamination by dyes is a matter of concern for human health and the environment. Various methods (membrane separation, coagulation and adsorption) have been explored to remove/degrade dyes. However, now the exploitation of semiconductor assisted materials using renewable solar energy has emerged as a potential candidate to resolve the issue. Although, single component photocatalysts (ZnO, TiO2, ZrO2) were experimented, due to their low efficiency and stability due to the high recombination rate electron-hole pair and inefficient visible light absorption, composites of semiconductor materials are being used. Semiconductor heterojunction systems are developed by coupling two or more semiconductor components. The synergistic effect of their properties, such as adsorption and improved charge carrier migration, is observed to increase overall stability. This review covers recent progress in advanced nanocomposite materials based on g-C3N4, TiO2 and ZnO used as photocatalysts with details of enhancing the photocatalytic properties by heterojunctions, crystallinity and doping. The conclusion at the end displays a summary, research gaps and future outlook. A holistic analysis of recent progress to demonstrate the efficient heterojunctions for photodegradation with optimal conditions, this review will be helpful for the development of efficient heterostructured systems for photodegradation. This review covers references from the year 2017-2020.

Abstract
The carrier medium plays a key role in improving existing remediation potential of conventional biological contact oxidation reactors. In this study, a biological contact oxidation reactor was constructed using basalt fiber (R-BF) as a biological carrier. The bioreactor performance was investigated in terms of reduction in chemical oxygen demand (COD), ammonium nitrogen (NH4+-N), and total nitrogen (TN) at organic loadings rate of 15.243 kg/m3·d and nitrogen loading rate of 1.068 kg/m3·d. We found that COD, NH4+-N, and TN were reduced to 99.1%, 97.9%, and 97.8%, respectively. Within the R-BF, a bio-nest was developed which had abundant pores and channels and supported successful movement of nutrients, resulting in high biological activity (55.78%). The microbial communities within the bio-nest were diverse and rich and sludge production during operation was minimal. This makes BF a promising application for wastewater treatment. This research might be useful in the construction of integrated bioreactors that can operate under high organic and nitrogen loadings rates with reduced energy consumption, i.e. 75% in this study.

Abstract
Free and partially encapsulated manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) nanoparticles are synthesized and characterized regarding structure, surface, and electronic and magnetic properties. The preparation method of partially encapsulated manganese ferrite enables the formation of a hybrid nanoparticle/tube system, which exhibits properties of manganese ferrite nanoparticles inside and attached to the external surface of the tubes. The effect of having manganese ferrite nanoparticles inside the tubes is observed as a shift in the X-ray diffraction peaks and as an increase in stress, hyperfine field, and coercivity when compared to free manganese ferrite nanoparticles. On the other hand, a strong charge transfer from the multiwall carbon nanotubes is attributed to the attachment of manganese ferrite nanoparticles outside the tubes, which is detected by a significant decrease in the σ band emission of the ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy signal. This is followed by an increase in the density of states at the Fermi level of the attached manganese ferrite nanoparticles in comparison to free manganese ferrite nanoparticles, which leads to an enhancement of the metallic properties.

Abstract
The presence of contaminants in water is concerning due to the potential impacts on human health and the environment, and ingested contaminants cause harm in various ways. The conventional water treatment systems are not efficient to remove these contaminants. Therefore, novel techniques and materials for the removal of contaminants are increasingly being developed. The separation process using modified membranes can remove these micropollutants; therefore, they have attracted significant research attention. Among the materials used for manufacturing of these membranes, composites based on graphene oxide and reduced graphene oxide are preferred owing to their promising properties, such as mechanical resistance, thermal and chemical stability, antifouling capacity, water permeability, high thermal and electrical conductivity, high optical transmittance and high surface area. Membrane separation processes (MSP) can be used as secondary or tertiary treatment during the supply of wastewater. However, the efficient and accessible applications of these technologies are challenging. This study aims to demonstrate the main concepts of membrane separation processes and their application in the removal of emerging contaminants. This study reports bibliometric mapping, relevant data on studies using membranes as water treatment processes, and their viability in industrial applications. The main challenges and perspectives of these technologies are discussed in detail as well.

Abstract
Rapidly increasing water contamination has turned into a major threat globally. The pollutants such as organic and inorganic compounds, heavy metals, and biological organisms are among the major contributor to water pollution. Therefore, the removal of these contaminants has attracted the researchers a lot. Various methodologies are being carried out for the purpose. Among them, the metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with several active sites and tailorable porous architectures as adsorbents or photocatalytic removal agents is a fast-growing class of coordination chemistry to remove these agents from water. To date, numerous approaches dealing with water treatment including conservative and advanced technologies have been presented. This article thoroughly reviews the application of MOFs toward how to remove the toxic agents from water. The leading objective is to present up-to-date information and references regarding MOFs based materials toward wastewater treatment applications.

Abstract
Emerging pollutants (EPs) refer to a class of pollutants, which are emerging in the environment or recently attracted attention. EPs mainly include pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs), endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). EPs have potential threats to human health and ecological environment. In recent years, the continuous detections of EPs in surface and ground water have brought huge challenges to water treatment and also made the treatment of EPs become an international research hotspot. This paper summarizes some research results on EPs treatment published in 2019. This paper may be helpful to understand the current situations and development trends of EP treatment technologies.

Au-TiO2 Synthesized by a Microwave- and Sonochemistry-Assisted Sol-Gel Method: Characterization and Application as Photocatalyst. Catalysts 2020.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a widely used and well studied photocatalyst synthesized using different methodologies, including sol-gel, which allows one to modify the material in a one-pot step. By using a microwave- and sonochemistry-assisted sol-gel method, x wt.% Au-TiO2 photocatalysts were successfully synthesized. Physicochemical characterization of the photocatalysts shows an average crystallite size of 10.5 nm and an even morphological distribution of spherical particles with the sonochemistry synthesis method. For the microwave method an average value of crystallite size of 8.3 nm was found and it presents an increase with the amount of Au load. The cyclic voltammetric response and Mott-Schottky analysis are consistent with a semiconductor material containing metallic particles and for a heterophase junction of anatase and brookite with oxygen vacancies, respectively. The photocatalytic activity was assessed by paracetamol degradation in an aqueous solution as model. The sonochemistry-synthesized photocatalysts display the most promising results as they have a better paracetamol removal and the amount of gold in the catalyst (0.7 wt.%) was found to be optimal for this process.

Abstract
An unprecedented rise in population growth and rapid worldwide industrial development are associated with the increasing discharge of a range of toxic and baleful compounds. These toxic pollutants including dyes, endocrine-disrupters, heavy metals, personal care products, and pharmaceuticals are destructing nature's balance and intensifying environmental toxicity at a disquieting rate. Therefore, finding better, novel and more environmentally sound approaches for wastewater remediation are of great importance. Nanoscale materials have opened up some new horizons in various fields of science and technology. Among a range of treatment technologies, nanostructured materials have recently received incredible interest as an emerging platform for wastewater remediation owing to their exceptional surface-area-to-volume ratio, unique electrical and chemical properties, quantum size effects, high scalability, and tunable surface functionalities. An array of nanomaterials including noble metal-based nanostructures, transition metal oxide nanomaterials, carbon-based nanomaterials, carbon nanotubes, and graphene/graphene oxide nanomaterials to their novel nanocomposites and nanoconjugates have been attempted as the promising catalysts to overcome environmental dilemmas. In this review, we summarized recent advances in nanostructured materials that are particularly engineered for the remediation of environmental contaminants. The toxicity of various classes of relevant tailored nanomaterials towards human health and the ecosystem along with perspectives is also presented. In our opinion, an overview of the up-to-date advancements on this emerging topic may provide new ideas and thoughts for engineering low-cost and highly-efficient nanostructured materials for the abatement of recalcitrant pollutants for a sustainable environment.

Environmental threatening concern and efficient removal of pharmaceutically active compounds using metal-organic frameworks as adsorbents. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2020; 185:109436. [PMID: 32278154 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2020.109436] [Citation(s) in RCA: 73] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2019] [Revised: 03/23/2020] [Accepted: 03/23/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
An alarming number of contaminants of emerging concern, including active residues from pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), are increasingly being introduced in water systems and environmental matrices due to unavoidable outcomes of modern-day lifestyle. Most of the PPCPs based contaminants are not completely eliminated during the currently used water/wastewater treatment processes. Therefore, highly selective and significant removal of PPCPs from environmental matrices remains a scientific challenge. In recent years, a wide range of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and MOF-based nanocomposites have been designed and envisioned for environmental remediation applications. MOF-derived novel cues had shown an adsorptive capability for the extraction and removal of an array of trace constituents in environmental samples. Noteworthy features such as substantial surface area, size, dispersibility, tunable structure, and repeated use capability provide MOFs-derived platform a superiority over in-practice conventional adsorptive materials. This review provides a comprehensive evaluation of the efficient removal or mitigation of various categories of PPCPs by diverse types of MOF-derived adsorbents with suitable examples. The growing research investigations in this direction paves the way for designing more efficient porous nanomaterials that would be useful for the elimination of PPCPs, and separation perspectives.

Superparamagnetic nanosorbent for water purification: Assessment of the adsorptive removal of lead and methyl orange from aqueous solutions. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2020; 711:134644. [PMID: 32000319 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2019.134644] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2019] [Revised: 09/23/2019] [Accepted: 09/23/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
The present study describes the preparation of 50.3 nm superparamagnetic nanosorbents with high surface area for the adsorptive removal of lead and methyl orange from water. This material is based on the surface modification of iron oxide superparamagnetic nanoparticles with a double-shell coating of mesoporous silica whose porosity was increased up to 570 m2/g by the addition of a porogenic material and its calcination. The adsorptive performance of the nanosorbent was evaluated as a function of several parameters (e.g. solution pH, pollutant initial concentration, and contact time), concluding that pHs around 5 are needed to avoid precipitation of Pb2+ as Pb(OH)2 and the equilibrium adsorption capacity is reached after 2 h in all cases. The experimental data on the adsorption capacity of lead and methyl orange onto the nanosorbent were fit to a pseudo-second order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity value increases from 35 up to 50 mg/gNS for lead removal with increasing nanosorbent surface area. Contrary, for methyl orange the maximum adsorption goes up to 240 mg/gNS, indicating a larger nanosorbent surface affinity for the organic matter that is able to diffuse through the silica pores as probed by the intraparticle diffusion model. In addition, we found an good reusability (100% recovering after 4 sorption/desorption cycles for methyl orange removal), which makes of this magnetic nanosorbent suitable for remediation technologies.
