Abstract
Compared to radical oxidative pathway, recent research revealed that non-radical oxidative pathway has higher selectivity, higher adaptability and lower oxidant requirement. In this work, we have designed and synthesized Cu2O/Cu nanowires (CuNWs), by pyrolysis of copper chloride and urea, to selectively generate high-valent copper (CuIII) upon H2O2 activation for the efficient treatment of actual glyphosate wastewater. The detailed characterizations confirmed that CuNWs nanocomposite was comprised of Cu0 and Cu2O, which possessed a nanowire-shaped structure. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis, in situ Raman spectra, chronoamperometry and liner sweep voltammetry (LSV) verified CuIII, which mainly contributed to glyphosate degradation, was selectively generated from CuNWs/H2O2 system. In particular, CuI is mainly oxidized by H2O2 into CuIIIvia dual-electron transfer, rather than simultaneously releasing OH• via single electron transfer. More importantly, CuNWs/H2O2 system exhibited the excellent potential in the efficient treatment of actual glyphosate wastewater, with 96.6% degradation efficiency and chemical oxygen demand (COD) dropped by 30%. This novel knowledge gained in the work helps to apply CuNWs into heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction for environmental remediation and gives new insights into non-radical pathway in H2O2 activation.

FeS and Fe 3O 4 Co-modified biochar to build a highly resistant advanced oxidation process system for quinclorac degradation in irrigation water. JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 348:119492. [PMID: 37922748 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.119492] [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: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/28/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), based on sulfate radical (SO4·-) produced by peroxymonosulfate (PMS), can effectively mineralize refractory organic pollutants. However, the coexistence of anions and natural organic matters in actual wastewater prevents the application of AOPs. A simple one-step method was used to prepare FeS/Fe3O4 co-modified biochar materials (FFB) that could activate PMS to degrade quinclorac (QNC) with a removal rate of 100%, even exhibiting optimum degradation of QNC reached 99.31% in irrigation water, demonstrating excellent anti-interference performance for co-existing anions and natural organic matter. Meanwhile, ecotoxicity analysis showed that the toxicity of degradation intermediates was lower than that of QNC. Characterization results demonstrated the even distribution of FeS and Fe3O4 onto biochar, supplying abundant Fe2+ to activate PMS producing reactive oxygen species (ROS), while the generated Fe3+ after reactive continue to be reduced with sulfur species to promote the cycle of Fe2+/Fe3+. The coexistence of ·OH, SO4·-, 1O2, and O2·- in the FFB/PMS-QNC system suggest the possession of two pathway with free radical and non-free radical pathways to degrade QNC. The density functional theory (DFT) was used to analyze the adsorption sites and adsorption energy of PMS, as well as the differential charge density, which further proved the generation of SO4·-, O2·- and 1O2. In addition, the electrochemical test results showed that electron transfer also played an important role in the degradation of QNC. This study provides a feasible approach for the removal of organic pollutants in actual water.

Abstract
Due to the worldwide water supply crisis, sustainable strategies are required for a better use of this resource. The use of magnetic water has been shown to have potential for improving irrigation efficacy. However, a lack of modelling methods that correspond to the experimental results and minimize error is observed. This study aimed to estimate the replacement rates of magnetic water provided by irrigation for lettuce production using a mathematical model based on fuzzy logic and to compare multiple polynomial regression analysis and the fuzzy model. A greenhouse study was conducted with lettuce using two types of water, magnetic water (MW) and conventional water (CW), and five irrigation levels (25, 50, 75, 100 and 125%) of crop evapotranspiration. Plant samples for biometric lettuce were taken at 14, 21, 28 and 35 days after transplanting. The data were analyzed via multiple polynomial regression and fuzzy mathematical modeling, followed by an inference of the models and a comparison between the methods. The highest biometric values for lettuce were observed when irrigated with MW during the different phenological stage evaluated. The fuzzy model provided a more exact adjustment when compared to the multiple polynomial regressions.

Direct glyphosate soil monitoring at the triazine-based covalent organic framework with the theoretical study of sensing principle. CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 341:139930.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are emerging as promising sensing materials due to their controllable structure and function properties, as well as excellent physicochemical characteristics. Here, specific interactions between a triazine-based COF and a mass-used herbicide - glyphosate (GLY) have been utilized to design a disposable sensing platform for GLY detection. This herbicide has been extensively used for decades, however, its harmful environmental impact and toxicity to humans have been recently proven, conditioning the necessity for the strict control and monitoring of its use and its presence in soil, water, and food. Glyphosate is an organophosphorus compound, and its detection in complex matrices usually requires laborious pretreatment. Here, we developed a direct, miniaturized, robust, and green approach for disposable electrochemical sensing of glyphosate, utilizing COF's ability to selectively capture and concentrate negatively charged glyphosate molecules inside its nanopores. This process generates the concentration gradient of GLY, accelerating its diffusion towards the electrode surface. Simultaneously, specific COF-glyphosate binding catalyses the oxidative cleavage of the C-P bond and, together with pore nanoconfinement, enables sensitive glyphosate detection. Detailed sensing principles and selectiveness were scrutinized using DFT-based modelling. The proposed electrochemical method has a linear working range from 0.1 μM to 10 μM, a low limit of detection of 96 nM, and a limit of quantification of 320 nM. The elaborated sensing approach is viable for use in real sample matrices and tested for GLY determination in soil and water samples, without pretreatment, preparation, or purification. The results showed the practical usefulness of the sensor in the real sample analysis and suggested its suitability for possible out-of-laboratory sensing.

Effects of Water Deficit on Growth and Productivity in Tomato Crops Irrigated with Water Treated with Very Low-Frequency Electromagnetic Resonance Fields. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:3721. [PMID: 37960077 PMCID: PMC10650588 DOI: 10.3390/plants12213721] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/29/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023]
Abstract
The tomato crop is very sensitive to stress conditions. A water deficit is defined as when precipitation is less than the evapotranspiration (ETc) of the crop in a given period, and in this scenario of climate change, it is identified as responsible for global productivity losses. The use of potential technologies for better irrigation management, such as electromagnetically treated water, remains controversial. Thus, the objective of the present work was to investigate the effects of very low-frequency electromagnetic resonance field treatment on water for tomato crops submitted to different irrigation rates. For this, an experiment was carried out under controlled conditions with different types of water: electromagnetically treated water (WTVLF) and untreated water (UNW), as well as four water replacement rates: 40, 60, 80, and 100% ETc. The electromagnetic treatment of the water was carried out using the commercial equipment AQUA4D®. The experiment was carried out in pots with five replications per treatment. Lower activity of SOD, POD, CAT, and APX enzymes was observed in plants irrigated with water treated with very low-frequency electromagnetic resonance fields (WTVLF), indicating less oxidative stress caused by water deficit. Water deficit reduced chlorophyll content, but the effects were less harmful with WTVLF water. The water deficit resulted in less accumulation of dry matter and less productivity in a linear relationship. However, plants irrigated with WTVLF showed increments of about 20% in dry matter accumulation and 20% in fruit production concerning plants irrigated with untreated water, independent of the irrigation rates. We can conclude that irrigation with WTVLF can be a solution to reduce the damage caused by water deficits and increase the productivity of tomato crops.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 331:121930.

Abstract
Benzoic acid (BA), a secondary metabolite released through root exudates, is considered to be the most common inhibitor that leads to plant autotoxicity, even at low concentrations in closed hydroponic systems. In this study, to mitigate BA-driven autotoxicity, the effects of O3 and O3/H2O2 oxidation treatment (O3 concentration: 1, 2, 4, 8 mg L-1, H2O2 concentration: 4, 8 mg L-1) on waste nutrient solution (WNS) were investigated in terms of BA degradation, the rate of germination inhibition (GI), and the rate of root growth inhibition (RI). In the case of O3 treatment, the BA degradation rate improved up to 14.1% as the O3 concentration increased, while alleviation of GI was insignificant (94.6-100%), confirming that a single O3 treatment was unsuitable for mitigating autotoxicity. On the other hand, O3/H2O2 treatment increased BA degradation by up to 24.8%, thereby significantly reducing GI (up to 7.69%) and RI (up to 0.88%). Both the highest BA mineralization rate and phytotoxicity mitigation was observed at BA125 (4-4) (BA mineralization: 16.7%, GI: 12.82%, RI: 11.69%) and BA125 (1-8) (BA mineralization: 17.7%, GI: 7.69%, RI: 0.88%) at each H2O2 concentration. In addition, the operating costs were evaluated by a chemical and electricity cost analysis at the different treatments. As a result, the operating costs of BA125 (4-4) and BA125 (1-8) were calculated to be 0.40 and 0.42 $ L-1 mg-1 of mineralized BA, respectively. After consideration of the mineralization rate, autotoxicity mitigation, and operating cost, BA125 (1-8) was suggested for the optimal treatment condition and our findings would contribute to the alleviation of BA-driven autotoxicity.
