Abstract
Wastewater treatment and reuse have risen as a solution to the water crisis plaguing the world. Global warming-induced climate change, population explosion and fast depletion of groundwater resources are going to exacerbate the present global water problems for the forthcoming future. In this scenario, advanced electrochemical oxidation process (EAOP) utilising electrocatalytic (EC) and photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) technologies have caught hold of the interest of the scientific community. The interest stems from the global water management plans to scale down centralised water and wastewater treatment systems to decentralised and semicentralised treatment systems for better usage efficiency and less resource wastage. In an age of rising water pollution caused by contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), EC and PEC systems were found to be capable of optimal mineralisation of these pollutants rendering them environmentally benign. The present review treads into the conventional electrochemical treatment systems to identify their drawbacks and analyses the scope of the EC and PEC to mitigate them. Probable electrode materials, potential catalysts and optimal operational conditions for such applications were also examined. The review also discusses the possible retrospective application of EC and PEC as point-of-use and point-of-entry treatment systems during the transition from conventional centralised systems to decentralised and semi-centralised water and wastewater treatment systems.

Abstract
A novel method for remediating eutrophic lakes through electrolysis was made possible by one titanium (Ti) mesh, which serves as a cathode and two anodes of Ti mesh coated with ruthenium (IV) oxide and iridium (IV) oxide (RuO2-IrO2/Ti). Once the three-electrode components RuO2-IrO2/Ti and Ti are stabilized, they can carry out electrolytic reaction to control cyanobacteria blooms and assist with the remediation of eutrophic water. The order of influence on the theoretical energy consumption involved in removing algae is as follows: The electrode spacing was more effective than electrode voltage, which proved more effective than electrolysis time through the orthogonal test method. Thus, an electrode spacing of 60 mm, an electrode voltage of 30 V, and an electrolysis time of 12 h are the optimal electrolysis methods used to remove cyanobacterial blooms. The strong acidic environment produced by the anode increased the concentration of hydroxyl radical (•OH) and other strong oxidizing substances, which were the main roles that made cyanobacteria bloom inactivation. The electrolysis reaction was conducive to the transformation of organophosphorus in cyanobacterial blooms to dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) in water. Some DIP was most deposited on the cathode after electro-depositing enhanced the removal of P in water with the 12-h prolonged electrolysis time. Meanwhile, it was beneficial to reduce the total nitrogen (TN) and ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) in the water. Thus, electrolysis proved to be an effective way to the inactivation of cyanobacteria blooms and simultaneously recover P as the concentration became higher.

Development and characterization of electrochemical sensors based on carbon modified with TiO2 nanoparticles. HEMIJSKA INDUSTRIJA 2022.

Abstract
The aim of this study is the development and characterization of a
carbon-based electrochemical sensor, modified with TiO2 nanoparticles for
potential application in electroanalytical techniques. The influence of
binder and modifier contents on morphological, physicochemical and
electrochemical characteristics of the electrode material was investigated
in order to determine the optimal ratio of the carbon
material/binder/modifier. Carbon pastes were prepared from mixtures
containing graphite powder, TiO2 nanoparticles and liquid hydrocarbons.
Scanning electron microscopy showed that the electrode material becomes more
compact with the addition and the increase in the binder material content,
while increasing the proportion of TiO2 nanoparticles did not have any
significant effect on the material morphology showing fairly homogeneous
nanoparticle distribution in the graphite electrode material. The test
results indicate that the modified carbon paste with 40 vol.% paraffin oil
(PO) and 6-8 wt.% TiO2 nanoparticles is characterized by the lowest value of
specific resistance. By applying cyclic voltammetry, the most pronounced
degree of reversibility was obtained in relation to the standard reversible
redox system ([Fe (CN)]-3/-4) for the electrode material with 30-40 vol.% PO
and 8-10 wt.% TiO2 nanoparticles. Characterization of the electrode material
based on carbon modified with TiO2 nanoparticles indicated that the optimal
composition contains 40 vol.% PO and 6-8 wt.% TiO2 nanoparticles, which is
important for application in electroanalytical techniques.

Abstract
Sensing Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is an important issue for environmental monitoring, as the MC-LR is a common toxic pollutant found in freshwater bodies. The demand for sensitive detection method of MC-LR at low concentrations can be addressed by metasurface-based sensors, which are feasible and highly efficient. Here, we demonstrate an all-dielectric metasurface for sensing MC-LR. Its working principle is based on quasi-bound states in the continuum mode (QBIC), and it manifests a high-quality factor and high sensitivity. The dielectric metasurface can detect a small change in the refractive index of the surrounding environment with a quality factor of ~170 and a sensitivity of ~788 nm/RIU. MC-LR can be specifically identified in mixed water with a concentration limit of as low as 0.002 μg/L by a specific recognition technique for combined antigen and antibody. Furthermore, the demonstrated detection of MC-LR can be extended to the identification and monitoring of other analytes, such as viruses, and the designed dielectric metasurface can serve as a monitor platform with high sensitivity and high specific recognition capability.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anthracycline widely used in treatments of several cancers, so it has found in hospital effluents with a significant concentration (above 1 μg L-1). Electrochemical remediation is an alternative to promote its degradation. The aim of this work was to evaluate the ability of nanostructured graphite electrodes with metallic oxides to degrade DOX by electro-oxidation (EO). Graphite, TiO2@graphite and AuO-TiO2@graphite electrodes were used in medium with tap water or 10 mmol L-1 NaCl. DOX treatments at concentrations of 1.25-5 mg L-1 were carried out in a voltage source with 1.5-5 V. The cathode used was the platinum electrode. The treatment of DOX 1.25 mg L-1 with 10 mmol L-1 NaCl electrolyte using the AuO-TiO2@graphite electrode at 5 V and 1 mA was the best methodology to promote its degradation. Also, the modified electrode was efficient to DOX degradation after 17 cycles of reuse. An energy expenditure of 1.11 and 0.2 kWh m-3 were obtained for 3 and 50 mL of treatment, respectively. Fish embryo acute toxicity test with zebrafish (Danio rerio) were performed before and after treatment by EO using NaCl. This treatment caused no effect on embryo-larval development, however it induced significant damage in the DNA of the zebrafish larvae after 96 h of exposure, which emphasizes the importance of a depth ecotoxicological evaluation during the development of EO methodologies.

Abstract
Methyldopa is a catecholamine widely used in the treatment of mild to moderate hypertension whose determination in pharmaceutical formulae is of upmost importance for dose precision. Henceforth, a low-cost carbon paste electrode (CPE) consisting of graphite powder obtained from a crushed pencil stick was herein modified with nanostructured TiO₂ (TiO₂@CPE) aiming for the detection of methyldopa in pharmaceutical samples. The TiO₂-modified graphite powder was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, which demonstrated the oxide nanostructured morphology. Results evidenced that sensitivity was nonetheless increased due to electro-catalytic effects promoted by metal modification, and linear response obtained by differential pulse voltammetry for the determination of methyldopa (pH = 5.0) was between 10⁻180 μmol/L (Limit of Detection = 1 μmol/L) with the TiO₂@CPE sensor. Furthermore, the constructed sensor was successfully applied in the detection of methyldopa in pharmaceutical formulations and excipients promoted no interference, that indicates that the sensor herein developed is a cheap, reliable, and useful strategy to detect methyldopa in pharmaceutical samples, and may also be applicable in determinations of similar compounds.

Abstract
Amoxicillin (AMX) is one of the most commonly prescribed antibiotics around the world to treat and prevent several diseases in both human and veterinary medicine. Incomplete removal of AMX during wastewater treatment contributes to its presence in water bodies and drinking water. AMX is an emerging contaminant since its impact on the environment and human health remains uncertain. This contribution was aimed to evaluate the electrochemical oxidation (EO) of AMX using different anodes in tap water, NaCl or Na2SO4 solutions and to evaluate the potential toxicity of remaining AMX and its by-products on zebrafish early-life stages. Chemical intermediates generated after EO were determined by mass spectrometry and their resulting antimicrobial activity was evaluated. AMX did not induce significant mortality in zebrafish during extended exposure but affected zebrafish development (increased body length) from 6.25 mg/L to 25 mg/L and inhibited enzymatic biomarkers. Carbon modified with titanium oxide (TiO2@C) anode achieved complete AMX removal in just a few minutes and efficiency of the supported electrolytes occurred in the following order: 0.1 M NaCl > 0.1 M Na2SO4 > 0.01 M NaCl > tap water. The order of potential toxicity to zebrafish early life-stages related to lethal and sublethal effects was as follows: 0.1 M Na2SO4 > 0.1 M NaCl >0.01 M NaCl = tap water. Additionally, the EO of AMX using TiO2@C electrode with 0.01 M NaCl was able to inhibit the antimicrobial activity of AMX, reducing the possibility of developing bacterial resistance.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) and in particular TiO2-NPs are increasingly included in commercial goods leading to their accumulation in sewage sludge which is spread on agricultural soils as fertilizers in many countries. Crop plants are thus a very likely point of entry for NPs in the food chain up to humans. So far, soil influence on NP fate has been under-investigated. In this article, we studied the partitioning of TiO2-NPs between soil and soil leachate, their uptake and biotransformation in wheat seedlings and their impact on plant development after exposure on 4 different types of soil with different characteristics: soil texture (from sandy to clayey), soil pH, cationic exchange capacity, organic matter content. Results suggest that a NP contamination occurring on agricultural soils will mainly lead to NP accumulation in soil (increase of Ti concentration up to 302% in sand) but to low to negligible transfer to soil leachate and plant shoot. In our experimental conditions, no sign of acute phytotoxicity has been detected (growth, biomass, chlorophyll content). Clay content above 6% together with organic matter content above 1.5% lead to translocation factor from soil to plant leaves below 2.5% (i.e. below 13mgTi·kg-1 dry leaves). Taken together, our results suggest low risk of crop contamination in an agro-ecosystem.

Abstract
Six naturally occurring minerals were employed to catalyze the hydrolysis of microcystin-LR (MC-LR) in water. After preliminary screening experiments, siderite stood out among these minerals due to its higher activity and selectivity. In comparison with kaolinite, which is known to act as a Lewis acid catalyst, siderite was found to act primarily as a Brönsted acid catalyst in the hydrolysis of MC-LR. More interestingly, we found that the presence of humic acid significantly inhibited catalytic efficiency of kaolinite, while the efficiency of siderite remained high (∼98%). Reaction intermediates detected by LC-ESI/MS were used to indicate cleavage points in the macrocyclic ring of MC-LR, and XPS was used to characterize siderite interaction with MC-LR. Detailed analysis of the in situ ATR-FTIR absorption spectra of MC-LR indicated hydrogen bonding at the siderite-water-MC-LR interface. A metastable ring, involving hydrogen bonding, between surface bicarbonate of siderite and an amide of MC-LR was proposed to explain the higher activity and selectivity toward MC-LR. Furthermore, siderite was found to reduce the toxicity of MC-LR to mice by hydrolyzing MC-LR peptide bonds. The study demonstrates the potential of siderite, an earth-abundant and biocompatible mineral, for removing MC-LR from water.

Abstract
The bioremediation and electro-oxidation (EO) processes are included among the most promising cleaning and decontamination mechanisms of water. The efficiency of bioremediation is dictated by the biological actuator for a specific substrate, its suitable immobilization and all involved biochemical concepts. The EO performance is defined by the anode efficiency to perform the complete mineralization of target compounds and is highlighted by the low or null use of reagent. Recently, the combination of both technologies has been proposed. Thus, the development of high efficient, low cost and eco-friendly anodes for sustainable EO, as well as, supporting devices for immobilization of biological systems applied in bioremediation is an open field of research. Therefore, the aim of this work was to promote the bio-electrochemical remediation of indigo carmine dye (widely common in textile industry), using new anode based on a microporous activated carbon fiber felt (ACFF) and ACFF with immobilized Laccase (Lcc) from Pycnoporus sanguineus. The results were discolorations of 62.7% with ACFF anode and 83.60% with ACFF-MANAE-Lcc anode, both for 60 min in tap water. This remediation rates show that this new anode has low cost and efficiency in the degradation of indigo dye and can be applied for other organic pollutant.
