Abstract
Adsorption processes are being widely used by various researchers for the removal of heavy metals from waste streams and biochar has been frequently used as an adsorbent. In this study, a MgO-loaded biochar derived from Alternanthera philoxeroides (MAPB) was synthesized for the removal of Cu(II). Compared with other biochar absorbents, MAPB showed a relatively slow adsorption kinetics, but an effective removal of Cu(II) with a maximum sorption capacity of 1, 238 mg/g. The adsorption mechanism of Cu(II) by MAPB was mainly controlled by chemical precipitation as Cu2(OH)3NO3, complexation and ion replacement. Fixed bed column with MAPB packed in same dosage (1, 000 mg) and different bed depth (1.3, 2.6 and 3.9 cm) showed that the increased of bed depth by mixing MAPB with quartz sand could increase the removal of Cu(II). The fitted breakthrough (BT) models showed that mixing MAPB with support media could reduce the mass transfer rate, increase the dynamic adsorption capacity and BT time. Therefore, MAPB adsorbent act as a highly efficient long-term adsorbent for Cu(II) contaminated water treatment may have great ecological and environmental significance.

[PMID: 37765968 PMCID: PMC10535157 DOI: 10.3390/s23187910] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023]
Abstract
A simple hydrothermal synthesis approach was used to synthesize porous MgNiO2 Chrysanthemum Flowers (CFs) nanostructures and applied as a sensing electrode for quick detection of hazardous mercury (Hg2+ ions). The morphological, structural, and electrochemical properties of MgNiO2 CFs were investigated. The morphological characteristic of MgNiO2 CFs, with a specific surface area of 45.618 m2/g, demonstrated strong electrochemical characteristics, including cations in different oxidation states of Ni3+/Ni2+. Using a three-electrode system for electrochemical detection, the MgNiO2 CFs based electrode revealed a good correlation coefficient (R2) of ~0.9721, a limit of detection (LOD) of ~11.7 μM, a quick response time (10 s), and a sensitivity of 8.22 μA∙μM-1∙cm-2 for Hg2+ ions over a broad linear range of 10-100 μM. Moreover, the selectivity for Hg2+ ions in tap water and drinking water was determined, and a promising stability of 25 days by MgNiO2 CFs electrode was exhibited. The obtained results indicate that the developed MgNiO2 CFs are a promising electrode for detecting hazardous Hg2+ ions in water and have the potential to be commercialized in the future.

Abstract
In order to minimize the toxicity of vanadium extraction tailings, the vanadium extraction efficiency should be as high as possible to minimize the residual V(V) content in tailings. In this work, the kinetics of the novel magnesiation roasting of vanadium slag, including the roasting mechanism and kinetic models, is explored to intensify the vanadium extraction. By combination of various characterizations, the microscopic mechanism of magnesiation roasting is revealed, which indicates the simultaneous occurrence of the salt-formation→oxidation routine (major) and the oxidation→salt-formation routine (minor). Macroscopic kinetic model studies show the magnesiation roasting of vanadium slag proceeds in two stages. In the initial 50 min, the roasting follows the Interface Controlled Reaction Model, during which the stable roasting temperature is essential to intensify the magnesiation. In the long-time range (50-90 min), the roasting follows the Ginstling-Brounstein Model, during which the acceleration of air blow rate is most favorable. With intensified roasting kinetics, the vanadium extraction efficiency is as high as 96.65%. This work has provided the guideline to intensify the magnesiation roasting of vanadium slag for vanadium extraction, which can not only minimize the tailing toxicity of vanadium extraction but also accelerate the industrial application of the novel magnesiation roasting technique.

Eco-Friendly Polysaccharide-Based Synthesis of Nanostructured MgO: Application in the Removal of Cu 2+ in Wastewater. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:693. [PMID: 36676431 PMCID: PMC9860860 DOI: 10.3390/ma16020693] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2022] [Revised: 12/28/2022] [Accepted: 12/31/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The present study described three synthesis routes using different natural polysaccharides as low-cost non-toxic fuels and complexing agents for obtaining MgO. Cassava starch, Aloe vera leaves (mainly acemannan) gel, and citric pectin powder were mixed with magnesium nitrate salt and calcined at 750 °C for 2 h. The samples were named according to the polysaccharide: cassava starch (MgO-St), citrus pectin (MgO-CP), and Aloe vera (MgO-Av). X-ray diffraction identified the formation of a monophasic periclase structure (FCC type) for the three samples. The N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms (B.E.T. method) showed an important difference in textural properties, with a higher pore volume (Vmax = 89.76 cc/g) and higher surface area (SA = 43.93 m2/g) obtained for MgO-St, followed by MgO-CP (Vmax = 11.01 cc/g; SA = 7.01 m2/g) and MgO-Av (Vmax = 6.44 cc/g; SA = 6.63 m2/g). These data were consistent with the porous appearance observed in SEM images. Porous solids are interesting as adsorbents for removing metallic and molecular ions from wastewater. The removal of copper ions from water was evaluated, and the experimental data at equilibrium were adjusted according to the Freundlich, Langmuir, and Temkin isotherms. According to the Langmuir model, the maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) was 6331.117, 5831.244, and 6726.623 mg·g-1 for the adsorbents MgO-St, MgO-Av, and MgO-CP, respectively. The results of the adsorption isotherms indicated that the synthesized magnesium oxides could be used to decrease the amount of Cu2+ ions in wastewater.

Abstract
Magnesium oxide nanostructured particles (NP) were prepared using a simple solution combustion technique using different leaf extracts such as Mangifera indica (Mango - Ma), Azadirachta indica (Neem-Ne), and Carica papaya (Papaya-Pa) as surfactants. The highly crystalline phase of MgO nanostructures was confirmed by PXRD and FTIR studies for 2 h 500°C calcined samples. To analyze the characteristics of obtained material-MaNP, NeNP, and PaNP for dosimetry applications, thermoluminescence (TL) studies were carried out for Co-60 gamma rays irradiated samples in the dose range 10-50 KGy; PaNP and NeNP exhibited well-defined glow curve when compared with MaNP samples. In addition, it was observed that the TL intensity decreases, with increase in gamma dose and the glow peak temperature is shifted towards the higher temperature with the increase in heating rate. The glow peak was segregated using glow curve deconvolution and thermal cleaning method. Kinetic parameters estimated using Chen's method, trap depth (E), and frequency factor (s) were found to be 0.699, 7.408, 0.4929, and 38.71, 11.008, and 10.71 for PaNP, NeNP, and MaNP respectively. The well-resolved glow curve, good linear behavior in the dose range of 10-50, KGy, and less fading were observed in PaNP as compared with MaNP and NeNP. Further, the antibacterial activity was checked against human pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A visible zone of clearance was observed at 200 and 100 μg/mL by the PaNP and NeNP, indicating the death of colonies by the nanoparticles. Therefore, PaNP nanomaterial is a potential phosphor material for dosimetry and antibacterial application compared to NeNP and MaNP.

Abstract
Growing international problem with pathogens acquiring resistance to antibiotics is the reason for the search for bactericidal substances against which microorganisms cannot become resistant. The aim of this study was to synthesize inorganic-organic nanohybrids and obtain materials with antimicrobial effects. Chitosan (CS) was deposited on nanocomposite carriers such as calcium oxide with titanium dioxide (CaO-TiO2), magnesium oxide with titanium dioxide (MgO-TiO2) and copper(II) oxide with titanium dioxide (CuO-TiO2). The efficiency of the process was examined at varying concentrations of chitosan and temperature. The parameters for nanohybrids synthesis were selected based on the highest amount of nano-chitosan deposited on the nanohybrids-for each carrier, the process conditions were as follows: chitosan solution at 5 g l-1and 20 °C. The materials were obtained using these parameters and were used for microbiological tests againstE. coliATCC 25922,S. aureusATCC 25923 andC. albicansATCC 10231. The growth inhibitory activity of the obtained materials was qualitatively defined. These results suggest that the synthesized nanohybrids and nanocomposites exhibit biostatic action. The material with the broadest effect was the CuO-TiO2-CS hybrid, which had biostatic properties against all tested strains at a minimal concentration of 1250μg ml-1. Further research is required to find eco-friendly, non-toxic, and more effective antimicrobials with a broad action to prevent the acquisition of resistance.

Abstract
The divalent transition metal ions (Ni, Co, and Fe)-doped MgO nanoparticles were synthesized via the sol–gel method. X-ray diffraction showed the MgO pure, single cubic phase of samples at 600 °C. Field emission electron microscope showed the uniform spherical shape of samples. The magnetic behavior of Ni, Co, Fe-doped MgO system were varied with Ni, Co, Fe content (0.00, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07). The magnetic nature of pure had changed from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic. The number of oxygen vacancies increases with increasing amounts of dopant ions that lead to an ionic charge imbalance between Ni2+/Co2+/Fe2+ and Mg2+, leading to increase magnetic properties of the samples. The magnetic nature of prepared samples makes them suitable for biomedical applications. A comparative study of the antibacterial activity of nanoparticles against the Gram-negative (E. coli) and Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus) was performed by disc diffusion, pour plate techniques, and study surface morphology of untreated and treated bacterial cell wall. An investigation of the antibacterial activity of doped MgO nanoparticles reveals that the doped MgO nanoparticles show effective antibacterial activity against the Gram-negative (E. coli) and Gram-positive (S. aureus) bacterium. The minimum inhibitory concentration of the synthesized nanoparticles against microorganisms was recorded with 40 μg/ml, while the maximum inhibitory concentration was observed with 80 μg/ml. At a concentration of 80 μg/ml, the complete growth inhibition of the E. coli was achieved with 7% Co-doped MgO and 7% Fe-doped MgO, while bacterial growth of S. aureus was inhibited by 100% in the presence of 7% Fe-doped MgO. The present work is promising for using nanomaterials as a novel antibiotic instead of the conventional antibiotics for the treatment of infectious diseases which are caused by tested bacteria.

Abstract
In this work, we studied the phases in a Mg-Ti-O system using a 1:1 formulation of MgO:TiO2, mixing synthetic brucite of Mexican origin with TiO2 microparticles of high purity, with a heat treatment at 1100 °C for 1 h. Due to its valence electrons, TiO2 can contribute to the sintering process to improve density in MgO products. The raw materials and formulation by XPS and X-RD techniques were characterized. The results demonstrate the presence of different oxidation states in titania and the formation of different oxides in the Mg-Ti-O system when mixed and calcined at 1100 °C; additionally, we estimated the formation of vacancies in the crystal lattice during the transformation from hexagonal brucite to magnesia with a cubic structure centered on the faces. Its thermal behavior is indicated by the MgO-TiO2 phase diagram.

Abstract
The organic synthetic dyes employed in industries are carcinogenic and harmful. Dyes must be removed from wastewater to limit or eliminate their presence before dumping into the natural environment. The current study aims to investigate the use of MgO nanoparticles to eliminate basic fuchsine (BF), as a model cationic dye pollutant, from wastewater. The MgO nanorods were synthesized through a coprecipitation method. The obtained nanocomposite was characterized using various techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), and FTIR spectroscopy. It was found that the variation of dye concentration and pH influenced the removal of BF by MgO. The adsorption capacity of 493.90 mg/g is achieved under optimum operating conditions (pH = 11, contact time = 236 min, and initial BF concentration = 200 ppm). Pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetics and Freundlich isotherm models best fitted BF sorption onto MgO nanorods. The BF sorption mechanism is associated with the electrostatic attractions and hydrogen bond between the O–H group of MgO and the NH2 groups of BF, as indicated by the pH, isotherms, and FTIR studies. The reusability study indicates that MgO was effectively used to eliminate BF in at least four continuous cycles. The investigation of MgO with different dyes suggests the high adsorption selectivity of BF, crystal violet (CV), and malachite green (MG) dyes compared with methyl orange (MO) dye. Overall, MgO nanorods can act as a potential and promising adsorbent for the efficient and rapid removal of cationic dyes (CV, MG, and BF) from wastewater.

Abstract
The development of biodegradable Zn matrix composites has been considered a promising approach to achieving enhanced mechanical properties, controllable degradation rate, good biocompatibility, and good osseointegration as orthopedic implants. However, scant literature regarding Zn matrix composites has been reported because of the great difficulty in dispersing the nano-sized bioactive reinforcements uniformly within the Zn matrix. In the present study, a novel and effective method were employed to obtain Zn matrix composites reinforced by uniformly dispersed beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) via graphene oxide (GO)-assisted hetero-agglomeration and subsequent spark plasma sintering process. A very low-content (0.04 vol%) few-layered GO was used as a coupling reagent to connect the Zn matrix and nano-sized TCP particles. In an appropriate polarity solvent, the negatively charged GO sheets could combine with both the positively charged Zn powder and TCP particles by electrostatic attraction and charge neutralization. Due to the nature of hetero-agglomeration, the flexible GO sheet could adhere to the large Zn powder and attracted a certain amount of TCP particles to form a Zn/GO/TCP sandwich structure by charge neutralization thereby forming a uniform dispersion of TCP particles within Zn matrix. After the spark plasma sintering (SPS) process, the TCP particles incorporated with very thin ZnO layers (thickness of a few dozen nanometers) formed a homogeneous and unique 3D network-like distribution in as-sintered TCP/Zn composites. A unique "snap pea"-like structure was confirmed at the grain boundary of α-Zn grains, which consisted of the TCP particles as "pea" and thin ZnO layer as "pod". Due to the uniform dispersion of bioactive TCP particles and unique structure of the TCP incorporating grain boundary, as-sintered 3TCP/Zn matrix composites possessed yield strength (YS) of 140.8 ± 7.7 MPa, failure strain of 36.0 ± 2.8%, the moderate degradation rate of 19.1 ± 3.3 μm·y-1 and good cytocompatibility to MC3T3-E1 cells. Moreover, osteogenic differentiation activity evaluation revealed that the addition of TCP could significantly improve the expressions of the osteogenic differentiation-related gene (ALP) in MC3T3-E1 cells, thereby resulting in improved osteogenic capability. Therefore, biodegradable 3TCP/Zn matrix composites fabricated by GO-assisted hetero-agglomeration and subsequent SPS process could be a promising material as orthopedic implants.

Abstract
The activities of various MgO catalysts, which were prepared from different methods such as hydration synthesis, thermal decomposition, combustion, sol–gel and co-precipitation, were conducted in dimethyl carbonate (DMC) synthesis via transesterification of ethylene carbonate with methanol. MgO-P-Na2CO3-3.14 synthesized by the excess Na2CO3 precipitation compared the best catalytic activity and stability, which could be reused for seven times without obvious deactivation. The DMC yield was as high as 69.97% at 68 °C. The transesterification reaction could be separated into two steps, and the samples obtained by NaOH precipitant exhibited better ring-opening capability, while the catalysts acquired by Na2CO3 precipitant displayed superior transesterification ability. The structure-performance relationship was evaluated by multiple characterization methods. The results indicated that the as-synthesized catalyst derived from dried precursors with more crystalline magnesium carbonate was favorable for the promotion of DMC yield, and MgO-P-Na2CO3-3.14 with more Mg-O pairs, which were the active center for the transesterification of 2-hydroxyethyl methyl carbonate (HEMC) intermediate with methanol, resulted in more moderately basic sites left that was in accordance with the DMC yield variation. MgO-P-Na2CO3-3.14 with greater BET surface area and mesopore volume, relative low surface oxygen content and larger moderately basic sites amount compared the excellent activity in DMC synthesis.

Abstract
Investigating the electrokinetic (EK) response in the vicinity of interfaces has regained interest due to the development of new membrane based processes for energy harvesting or soil depollution. However, the case of reactive interfaces, ubiquitous in these processes, remains scarcely explored. Here we experimentally investigate the EK response of a model interface between an aqueous electrolyte and a bulk MgO crystal surface (100), for different pH. For that purpose, we use a lab-scale non invasive method to monitor the zeta potential of the interface versus time, by confocal fluorescent particle tracking. An unexpected motion of the particles, repelled and then attracted again by the interface is observed. We attributed this motion to the surface reactivity, inducing ion concentration gradients perpendicular to the interface and subsequent diffusiophoresis of the charged particle. Accordingly, we could describe at a semi-quantitative level the particle dynamics by solving numerically the Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations to establish concentration profile in the system and subsequent diffusiophoretic motion. These experiments open the way to the characterization of both the EK response and the reaction rate in the vicinity of reactive interfaces.

Abstract
This paper concerns research on magnesium oxide layers in terms of their potential use as a gate material for SiC MOSFET structures. The two basic systems of MgO/SiC(0001) and MgO/graphite/SiC(0001) were deeply investigated in situ under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV). In both cases, the MgO layers were obtained by a reactive evaporation method. Graphite layers terminating the SiC(0001) surface were formed by thermal annealing in UHV. The physicochemical properties of the deposited MgO layers and the systems formed with their participation were determined using X-ray and UV photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS, UPS). The results confirmed the formation of MgO compounds. Energy level diagrams were constructed for both systems. The valence band maximum of MgO layers was embedded deeper on the graphitized surface than on the SiC(0001).

Abstract
Bone graft infections are serious complications in orthopaedics and the growing resistance to antibiotics is increasing the need for antibacterial strategies. The use of magnesium oxide (MgO) is an interesting alternative since it possesses broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Additionally, magnesium ions also play a role in bone regeneration, which makes MgO more appealing than other metal oxides. Therefore, a bone substitute composed of hydroxyapatite and MgO (HAp/MgO) spherical granules was developed using different sintering heat-treatment cycles to optimize its features. Depending on the sintering temperature, HAp/MgO spherical granules exhibited distinct surface topographies, mechanical strength and degradation profiles, that influenced the in vitro antibacterial activity and cytocompatibility. A proper balance between antibacterial activity and cytocompatibility was achieved with HAp/MgO spherical granules sintered at 1100 ºC. The presence of MgO in these granules was able to significantly reduce bacterial proliferation and simultaneously provide a suitable environment for osteoblasts growth. The angiogenic and inflammation potentials were also assessed using the in vivo chicken embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model and the spherical granules containing MgO stimulated angiogenesis without increasing inflammation. The outcomes of this study evidence a dual effect of MgO for bone regenerative applications making this material a promising antibacterial bone substitute.

Abstract
Water scarcity is a worldwide issue that significantly affects the environment, population, and economy of the arid zones. In this study, we report a straightforward method for water-harvesting based on modifications of the surface wettability. Using magnesium chloride, lauric acid, and electrodeposition process, a superhydrophobic surface (155°) is obtained. Morphological characterization techniques allow determination of the characteristic flower-like microstructures combined with close packed nanoarrays that lead to the hierarchical structure. Furthermore, the coating presents vertically aligned microarrays in a non-linear cone morphology formed by dynamic templating of hydrogen bubbles. From a chemical point of view, magnesium laurate is responsible for the surface tension decrease. To determine the durability of the obtained surface ultra-violet (UV) light test and abrasive paper test, tests are carried out revealing high durability against these severe conditions. The water-harvesting ability of the superhydrophobic surface is studied at 45° and 90° tilted samples. The capacity of the water to be harvested efficiently is found to be at 90° tilt under fog conditions. The use of green reactants associated with this hierarchical structure broadens a new scope for sustainable freshwater collection and it becomes an excellent example of a green solution.

Abstract
Since the complexity of photocatalyst synthesis process and high cost of noble cocatalyst leftovers a major hurdle to producing hydrogen (H2) from water, a noble metal-free Ni-Si/MgO photocatalyst was realized for the first time to generate H2 effectively under illumination with visible light. The catalyst was produced by means of simple one-pot solid reaction using self-designed metal reactor. The physiochemical properties of photocatalyst were identified by XRD, FESEM, HRTEM, EDX, UV-visible, XPS, GC and PL. The photocatalytic activities of Ni-Si/MgO photocatalyst at different nickel concentrations were evaluated without adjusting pH, applied voltage, sacrificial agent or electron donor. The ultrathin-nanosheet with hierarchically porous structure of catalyst was found to exhibit higher photocatalytic H2 production than hexagonal nanorods structured catalyst, which suggests that the randomly branched nanosheets are more active surface to increase the light-harvesting efficiency due to its short electron diffusion path. The catalyst exhibited remarkable performance reaching up to 714 µmolh−1 which is higher among the predominant semiconductor catalyst. The results demonstrated that the photocatalytic reaction irradiated under visible light illumination through the production of hydrogen and hydroxyl radicals on metals. The outcome indicates an important step forward one-pot facile approach to prepare noble ultrathin photocatalyst for hydrogen production from water.

Abstract
Surface catalyzed reactions can be a convenient way to deactivate toxic chemical warfare agents (CWAs) and remove them from the contaminated environment. In this study, pure titanium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, and their composites TiO2/Mg(OH2) were prepared by thermal decomposition and precipitation of the titanium peroxo-complex and/or magnesium nitrate in an aqueous solution. The as-prepared composites were examined by XRD, XPS, HRTEM, and nitrogen physisorption. Their decontamination ability was tested on CWA surrogates and determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Dimethyl methyl phosphonate (DMMP) was used as a G simulant for the nerve agents sarin (GB) and soman (GD) while 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (2-CEES) and 2-chloroethyl phenyl sulfide (2-CEPS) were used as surrogates of sulfur mustard (HD). The activity of the as-prepared composites was correlated with acid–base properties determined by potentiometric titrations and pyridine adsorption studied by in situ DRIFTS. The mixing of Ti and Mg led to an increase of the surface area and the amount of surface –OH groups (with an increasing amount of Ti) that caused improved degradation of DMMP. Surface catalyzed reactions can be a convenient way to deactivate toxic chemical warfare agents (CWAs) and remove them from the contaminated environment.![]()

Abstract
The study was undertaken to investigate deposition behaviors of various size-segregated particles and indoor air quality using dust accumulated on the air conditioner filter acting as a sink for PTEs and nanoparticles that can pose a significant health risk. However, the particulate matter size and chemical composition in AC dust and its relationship with PTEs remains uncertain. Current study aims to investigate the PTEs and nanoparticles composition of AC dust using different analytical approaches including ICP-MS, XRD, XPS, SEM/TEM along with EDS and Laser Diffraction particle size analyzer. The mean concentration of PTEs like Al, As, Cd, Cu, Li, Pb, Sb, Se, Sn, Ti, V and Zn exceeded the corresponding background value. Pb, As, Sn, Sb, Cd were categorizing under geo-accumulation index class IV. Most of the particles were found to be > 100 μm and it decreased significantly with increase in floor altitude. A significantly negative correlation was found between particles size and PTEs concentration showing a significant increase in PTEs content with decrease in particles size. The XPS results showed dominant peaks for TiO2, Ti-O-N, As2O3, Fe+3, Fe+2, Al-OH and Al203. Additionally, As, Pb, Si and Fe were dominant metallic nanoparticles identified using SEM/TEM along with EDS.
