Abstract
On the global level, uranium is considered the main nuclear energy source, and its removal from terrestrial ores is enough to last until the end of the current century. Therefore, a major focus is attracted toward the capture of uranium from a sustainable source (seawater). Uranium recovery from seawater has been reported over the last few decades, and recently many efforts have been devoted to the preparation of such adsorbents with higher selectivity and adsorption capacity. The purpose of this review is to report the advancement in adsorbent preparation and modification of porous materials. It also discusses challenges such as adsorbent selectivity, low uranium concentration in seawater, contact time, biofouling, and the solution to the problems necessary to ensure a better adsorption performance of the adsorbent.

[PMID: 37742762 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023]
Abstract
The conventional carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) stabilization hampered available active sites of adsorption and reduction, due to irregular shape of nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) particles with augmented average size and passivated surface, leading to insufficient removal and poor resistance against complex environmental conditions. Herein, we presented (2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl)-mediated (TEMPO-mediated) oxidation of cellulose nanocrystal (TOCNC) scaffolded nZVI (nZVI@TOCNC) with enhanced efficiency for chromium removal in comparison with CMC stabilized nZVI (nZVI@CMC). The anchoring of nZVI at the functional sites of TOCNC was initiated by liquid-phase chemical reduction method. The nZVI@TOCNC showed improved nZVI distribution with uniform particle size and thinner shell (∼1 nm). Characterizations using FT-IR, XPS and XRD demonstrated that bindings between TOCNC and nZVI were through hydrogen bonds, electrostatic attractions, coordination-covalent bonds and bidentate chelation. TOCNC with shorter branch-chain (-COC-) surrounding the nZVI could potentially form a porous and compact "mesh" to rigidly encapsulate nZVI, while CMC wrapped around nZVI in the way of traditional polymeric stabilizers. Thus, 0.5 g/L nZVI@TOCNC achieved 99.96% Cr (Ⅵ) removal efficiency (20 mg/L) at pH = 7 and the removal capacity were up to 55.86 mg/g. The nZVI@TOCNC consistently presented higher removal efficiency than nZVI@CMC under wide pH range (3-7). Cr (Ⅵ) was reduced to Cr (Ⅲ) by nZVI@TOCNC with deposition of CrxFe1-x (OH)3 and Cr2O3. The predominant mechanisms of removal probably consisted of electrostatic attractions, reduction, co-precipitation and surface complexation. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model well-fitted the sorption kinetic, indicating TOCNC scaffold stabilized nZVI for efficient reduction of Cr (Ⅵ) through multi-layer adsorption. As a template and delivery carrier, TOCNC shows promising potential to further improve the capability and practice of nZVI for in situ treatment of industrial waste water with heavy metal pollution.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2023; 455:131578. [PMID: 37172389 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2023.131578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2023] [Revised: 05/01/2023] [Accepted: 05/03/2023] [Indexed: 05/14/2023]
Abstract
Developing a convenient, efficient and eco-friendly approach for the recovery of U(VI) ion is a key measure to solve the environmental problems arising from the utilization of nuclear energy. Herein, the high efficiency of uranium extraction is realized by the piezo property of perovskite BaTiO3, revealing the intrinsically morphological engineering effect on the piezocatalytic performance. Especially, BaTiO3 nanowires (BTO NWs) exhibit not only an excellent piezocatalytic activity with U(VI) extraction rate of 96.8% in a UO2(NO3)2 aqueous solution compared to 71.3% of BaTiO3 nanoparticles (BTO NPs), but also a promising piezocatalyst for U extraction in a real U-mining wastewater with various pH ranges. Piezo response force microscopy and finite elemental simulation show that the piezo response of BTO NWs is much higher than BTO NPs. Additionally, some factors (pH, various ions, different powers) are explored on piezocatalytic efficiency for U(VI) extraction. The results from electron spin resonance and the charge/radical capture experiments confirm that the active species (e-, •O2-, •OH) stemmed from the piezo induction of BTO NWs and BTO NPs in the piezocatalytic U(VI) reduction process. The present work reveals the structure-performance correlation during piezocatalysis and highlights the crucial role of piezocatalysis in dealing with environmental problems.

Abstract
The efficient removal of U(vi) ions from contaminated natural waters and wastewaters of industrial processing plants by novel magnetic nanocomposites based on magnetite and Zn,Al-layered double hydroxides intercalated with citric and EDTA groups (Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/Cit and Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA) was shown. These adsorbents were obtained using co-precipitation and ion-exchange techniques. The infrared spectroscopy confirmed the existence of O-containing groups on the surfaces of Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/Cit and Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA, which could provide active sites in the interlayer of the adsorbents for the pollutants removal. The intercalation of Zn,Al-LDH with chelating EDTA-groups significantly increased the adsorption capacity toward U(vi) ions (131.22 mg g-1) compared to citric moieties in a wide range of pH (3.5-9.0). The maximum adsorption capacities of U(vi) at pH 7.5 were 81.12 mg g-1 for Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA and 21.6 mg g-1 for Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/Cit. The higher adsorption capacity of Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA vs. the citric sample might be explained by high affinity of LDH-supports and high-activity of the chelating groups in formation of the complexes in the interlayer space of the magnetic nanocomposite. The removal of U(vi) by the magnetic nanocomposites occurred due to interlayer complexation and electrostatic interactions. The cations (Na+, K+, Ca2+), HCO3 - and fulvic acid anions being typical for natural waters were practically not affected upon the removal of U(vi) from aqueous media. The adsorption performance of Fe3O4/Zn,Al-LDH/EDTA nanocomposites was evaluated in the analysis of environmental and wastewater samples with recoveries in the range of 95.8-99.9%. This superior intercalation performance of LDH-supports provides simple and low-cost adsorbents, providing a strategy for decontamination of radionuclides from wastewater.

Abstract
Magnetite nanoparticles (MNPs) with varied organic coatings (OCs) which improved their stability have broad environmental applications. However, the adsorbed amounts and layer thickness of varied OCs onto MNPs during the synthesis were generally not or poorly characterized, and their interactions with natural organic matter (NOM) were still in progress. In this study, acetic (HAc), citric (CA), and polyacrylic acid (PAA) were selected as model OCs, the adsorption behaviors of OCs on MNPs were characterized under varied aqueous C/Fe ratios, and the aggregation behaviors of MNPs with varied OCs (OC-MNPs) at neutral pH (7.0 ± 0.2) with NaCl (5-800 mM) in the presence/absence of NOM were systematically investigated. Under low aqueous C/Fe ratio, the adsorbed amounts of model OCs as -COOH/Fe ratio followed the order: CA ≈ PAA > > HAc. With high aqueous C/Fe ratio, the maximum adsorbed masses of OC-MNPs were similar. The adsorbed layer thicknesses of OC-MNPs were thoroughly characterized using three different methods, all showing that the adsorbed layer of PAA was thicker than that of CA and HAc. Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) and extended DLVO (EDLVO) calculations showed that electrostatic and van der Waals forces were dominant for CA-MNPs and HAc-MNPs stabilization; while steric repulsion played major roles in stabilizing PAA-MNPs, probably due to a thicker PAA layer. In the presence of NOM, stability behaviors of all OC-MNPs were similar, ascribing to the much greater amounts of NOM adsorbed than the OCs, causing greater steric repulsion. This study provides new mechanistic insights which could help better understand the effects of varied OCs on MNPs' colloidal stability.

Abstract
One-pot magnetic separation of uranium (U) in seawater and groundwater samples has been made possible by synthesizing phosphoramidate functionalized Ag coated citrate-Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs). The magnetic saturation value of these functionalized NPs is 27.1 emu g-1. The synergistic extraction mechanism of U(VI) ion by the surface-modified phosphoramidate and citrate molecules make these NPs highly selective towards U(VI). The adsorption kinetics follows a pseudo-second-order model and the adsorption isotherm fits successfully to the Langmuir adsorption model. The functionalized NPs show quantitative extraction efficiency in the pH range of 6.5-8 with a maximum loading capacity (Qm) of 108.7 mg g-1. The equilibration time required by these functionalized NPs to attain the Qm value is 120 s. The recycling of these NPs can be done up to 5-6 times with 1.0 mol L-1 of Na2CO3 or NH4OH for quantitative extraction of U(VI). These functionalized NPs show high resilience towards large number of naturally abundant metal ions.

Abstract
Nanostructured polymeric materials, functionalized with an appropriate receptor, have opened up newer possibilities for designing a reagent that shows analyte-specific recognition and efficient scavenging of an analyte that has either a detrimental influence on human physiology and environment or on its recovery for further value addition. Higher active surface area, morphological diversity, synthetic tunability for desired surface functionalization, and the ease of regeneration of a nanostructured material for further use have provided such materials with a distinct edge over conventional reagents. The use of a biodegradable polymeric backbone has an added significance owing to the recent concern over the impact of polymers on the environment. Functionalization of biodegradable sodium alginate with AENA (6.85% grafting) as the receptor functionality led to a unique open framework nanoring (NNRG) morphology with a favorable spatial orientation for specific recognition and efficient binding to uranyl ions (U) in an aqueous medium over a varied pH range. Nanoring morphology was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy images. The nanoscale design maximizes the surface area for the molecular scavenger. A combination of all these features along with the reversible binding phenomenon has made NNRG a superior reagent for specific, efficient uptake of UO22+ species from an acidic (pH 3-4) solution and compares better than all existing UO22+-scavengers reported till date. This could be utilized for the recovery of uranyl species from a synthetic acidic effluent of the nuclear power. The results of the U uptake experiments reveal a maximum adsorption capacity of 268 mg of U per g of NNRG in a synthetic nuclear effluent. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy studies revealed a reductive complexation process and stabilization of U(IV)-species in adsorbed uranium species (U@NNRG).

Abstract
Surface-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles are promising adsorbents due to their large surface areas and ease of separation after contaminant removal. In this work, the affinity of Cr(VI) adsorption to 8 nm surface-functionalized superparamagnetic magnetite nanoparticles was determined for surface coatings with amine (trimethyloctadecylammonium bromide, CTAB) and carboxyl (stearic acid, SA) functional groups. Cr(VI) adsorbed more strongly to the CTAB-coated nanoparticles than to the SA-coated materials due to electrostatic interactions between positively charged CTAB and anionic Cr(VI) species. The adsorption of Cr(VI) by CTAB- and SA-coated nanoparticles increased with decreasing pH (4.5-10), which could be simulated by a surface complexation model. Cr(VI) removal performance by the nanocomposite was evaluated for two realistic drinking water compositions. The co-occurrence of divalent cations (Ca2+ and Mg2+) and Cr(VI) resulted in decreased Cr(VI) adsorption as particles were destabilized, leading to the aggregation and lower effective surface area, confirming the importance of the overall water composition on the performance of novel engineered nanomaterials for water treatment applications.

Abstract
Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles (NPs), the most traditional magnetic nanoparticles, have received a great deal of attention in the biomedical field, especially for targeted drug/gene delivery systems, due to their outstanding magnetism, biocompatibility, lower toxicity, biodegradability, and other features. Naked Fe₃O₄ NPs are easy to aggregate and oxidize, and thus are often made with various coatings to realize superior properties for targeted drug/gene delivery. In this review, we first list the three commonly utilized synthesis methods of Fe₃O₄ NPs, and their advantages and disadvantages. In the second part, we describe coating materials that exhibit noticeable features that allow functionalization of Fe₃O₄ NPs and summarize their methods of drug targeting/gene delivery. Then our efforts will be devoted to the research status and progress of several different functionalized Fe₃O₄ NP delivery systems loaded with chemotherapeutic agents, and we present targeted gene transitive carriers in detail. In the following section, we illuminate the most effective treatment systems of the combined drug and gene therapy. Finally, we propose opportunities and challenges of the clinical transformation of Fe₃O₄ NPs targeting drug/gene delivery systems.

Abstract
Surface-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles have high capacity for U(VI) adsorption and can be easily separated from the aqueous phase by applying a magnetic field. A surface-engineered bilayer structure enables the stabilization of nanoparticles in aqueous solution. Functional groups in stearic acid (SA), oleic acid (OA), and octadecylphosphonic acid (ODP) coatings led to different adsorption extents (SA≈ OA > ODP) under the same conditions. The impact of water chemistry (initial loading of U(VI), pH, and the presence of carbonate) has been systematically examined for U(VI) adsorption to OA-coated nanoparticles. A diffuse double layer surface complexation model was developed for surface-functionalized magnetite nanoparticles that could simulate both the measured surface charge and the U(VI) adsorption behavior at the same time. With a small set of adsorption reactions for uranyl hydroxide and uranyl carbonate complexes to surface sites, the model can successfully simulate the entire adsorption data set over all uranium loadings, pH values, and dissolved inorganic carbon concentrations. The results show that the adsorption behavior was related to the changing U(VI) species and properties of surface coatings on nanoparticles. The model could also fit pH-dependent surface potential values that are consistent with measured zeta potentials.
