[PMID: 37625740 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126489] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/22/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023]
Abstract
Biodegradable polymers, biochars and metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have manifested as top prospects for elimination of harmful pollutants. In the current study, Ti-MOF was synthesized and decorated with TiO2 nanoparticles, then embedded into watermelon peel biochar and functionalized with chitosan hydrogel to produce Ti-MOF@TiO2@WMPB@CTH. Various instruments were employed to assure the effective production of the bionanocomposite. The HR-TEM and SEM studies referred to excellent surface porosity and homogeneity of Ti-MOF@TiO2@WMPB@CTH bionanocomposite, with 51.02-74.23 nm. Based on the BET analysis, the mesoporous structure has a significant surface area of 366.04 m2 g-1 and a considerable total pore volume of 11.38 × 10-2 cm3 g-1, with a mean pore size of 12.434 nm. Removal of doxorubicin (DOX) and hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) was examined under various experimentations. Pseudo-second order kinetic models in addition to Langmuir isotherm offered the best fitting. Thermodynamic experiments of the two contaminants demonstrated spontaneous and endothermic interactions. After five subsequent adsorption and desorption cycles, Ti-MOF@TiO2@WMPB@CTH bionanocomposite demonstrated an exceptional recyclability for the elimination of DOX and Cr(VI) ions, reaching 97.96 % and 95.28 %, respectively. Finally, the newly designed Ti-MOF@TiO2@WMPB@CTH bionanocomposite demonstrated a high removing efficiency of Cr(VI) ions and DOX from samples of real water.

[PMID: 37516930 DOI: 10.1080/10934529.2023.2241315] [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: 12/02/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023]
Abstract
The discharge of chromium-containing wastewater in industrial production causes resource loss and damage to the ecological environment. Currently, various phenolamine materials have been used to remove chromium, but their harsh adsorption conditions bring many difficulties. For example, ideal chromium removal is only achieved at low pH. In this study, we synthesized catechol/m-phenylenediamine nanospheres (CMN) and combined CMN with Fe(II) for Cr removal from aqueous solutions, and Fe(II) comes from FeSO4·7H2O. CMN was characterized and analyzed by field-emission scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron (XPS). The adsorption performance was studied through a series of adsorption experiments. When C0 = 900 mg/L and pH = 6, the maximum adsorption capacity obtained in the experiment was 977.1 mg/g. It maintains excellent adsorption properties in acidic, neutral and alkaline environments. The results of the adsorption mechanism showed that the ultra-high adsorption capacity of CMN and Fe(II) for Cr was the result of the synergistic effect of adsorption and reduction, including electrostatic attraction, reduction and coprecipitation. CMN is expected to be an ideal adsorbent for Cr removal in aqueous solution due to its low cost, high biocompatibility and high efficiency in Cr removal.

Abstract
Control over adhesion at interfaces from strong bonding to release between thermoplastic polymers (TPs) and metal oxides is highly significant for polymer composites. In this work, we showcase a simple and inexpensive method to tune adhesion between a TP of growing interest, poly(lactic acid) (PLA), and two commercial metal alloys, based on titanium and stainless steel. This is realized by coating titanium and stainless steel wires with polydopamine (PDA), thermally treating them under vacuum at temperatures ranging from 25 to 250 °C, and then comolding them with PLA to form pullout specimens for adhesion tests. Pullout results indicate that PDA coatings treated at low temperatures up to a given threshold significantly improve adhesion between PLA and the metals. Conversely, at higher PDA annealing temperatures beyond the threshold, interfacial bonding gradually declines. The excellent control over interfacial adhesion is attributed to the thermally induced transformation of PDA. In this work, we show using thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared, and 13C solid-state NMR that the extent of the thermal transformation is dependent on the annealing temperature. By selecting the annealing temperature, we vary the concentration of primary amine and hydroxyl groups in PDA, which influences adhesion at the metal/PLA interface. We believe that these findings contribute to optimizing and broadening the applications of PDA in composite materials.

Abstract
Zeolitic imidazolate framework-L/melamine foam (ZIF-L/MF) is fabricated by an in situ growth method to treat the tetracycline hydrochloride in wastewater. The results show that a large amount of leaf-like ZIF-L is vertically grown on the MF surface. ZIF-L/MF exhibits well adsorption performance with a maximum adsorption ability of 1346 mg/g. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model are used to describe the adsorption process well. In addition, the influences of pH and coexisting ions are studied. According to the experimental data and analysis, the adsorption mechanisms may involve H-bonding, π-π interaction, and weak electrostatic interaction. A dynamic adsorption experiment is also performed, and the results show that the time required to achieve the same removal efficiency as static adsorption is reduced by half. This work shows that the obtained ZIF-L/MF has practical applications in antibiotic adsorption.

Abstract
The removal of CrIII ions from contaminated wastewater is of great urgency from both environmental protection and resource utilization perspectives. Herein, we developed a superstable mineralization method to immobilize Cr3+ ions from wastewater using CuO as a stabilizer, leading to the formation of a CuCr layered double hydroxide (denoted as CuCr-LDH). CuO showed a superior Cr3+ removal performance with a removal efficiency of 97.97% and a maximum adsorption capacity of 207.6 mg/g in a 13000 mg/L Cr3+ ion solution. In situ and ex situ X-ray absorption fine structure characterizations were carried out to elucidate the superstable mineralization mechanism. Two reaction pathways were proposed including coprecipitation-dissolution and topological transformation. The mineralized product of CuCr-LDH can be reused for the efficient removal of organic dyes, and the adsorption capacities were up to 248.0 mg/g for Congo red and 240.1 mg/g for Evans blue, respectively. Moreover, CuCr-LDH exhibited a good performance for photocatalytic CO2 reduction to syngas (H2/CO = 2.66) with evolution rates of 54.03 μmol/g·h for CO and of 143.94 μmol/g·h for H2 under λ > 400 nm, respectively. More encouragingly, the actual tanning leather Cr3+ wastewater treated by CuO showed that Cr3+ can reduce from 3438 to 0.06 mg/L, which was much below discharge standards (1.5 mg/L). This work provides a new approach to the mineralization of Cr3+ ions through the "salt-oxide" route, and the findings reported herein may guide the future design of highly efficient mineralization agents for heavy metals.
