Abstract
Heavy metals are highly toxic and nonbiodegradable, posing a serious threat to the water environment and human beings. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a highly efficient adsorbent that is easy to recover and separate for the removal of heavy metals. In this paper, nitrogen-doped magnetic carbon (NC-67) was prepared by carbonization and hydrochloric acid treatment using cobalt-containing MOF (ZIF-67) as precursor. Then, polyaniline (PANI) was grown directly on NC-67 with high specific surface area by in situ polymerization to prepare polyaniline-coated nitrogen-doped magnetic carbon (NC-67@PANI), which was characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM and VSM, etc. and used for the removal of Cr(VI)from wastewater. The experimental results showed that the adsorption process of Cr(VI) by NC-67@PANI was spontaneous and endothermic, which conformed to the pseudo-second-order model and Freundlich adsorption isotherm model. Due to the synergistic effect of adsorption and reduction, the experimental adsorption capacity of NC-67@PANI for Cr(VI) was 410.2 mg/g. NC-67@PANI maintained a removal efficiency of 65.8% for Cr(VI) after five cycles. In addition, NC-67@PANI had good magnetism and was easy to separate under external magnetic field. The excellent adsorption capacity and easy separation characteristics of NC-67@PANI indicate that it is a promising adsorbent for Cr(VI) removal from wastewater.

Magnetic bio-composite based on zirconium and chitosan modified activated carbon from peanut husk with enhanced antibacterial and adsorptive potential for alizarin red and congo red in wastewater. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 273:132995. [PMID: 38862056 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 06/13/2024]
Abstract
Creating new adsorbents is crucial for removing contaminants from water due to increased industrialization, which has worsened water pollution in recent years. In this study, a magnetic biocomposite, Zirconium (Zr)-doped chitosan (CS)-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4-NPs)-peanut husk (PH)-based activated carbon (AC) (Zr-CS/Fe3O4-NPs@PH-AC), was synthesized for efficient removal of alizarin red (AR) and congo red (CR) dyes, alongside antibacterial applications. Characterization via scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis revealed micropores and mesopores development due to chemical activation of PH biomaterial and Fe3O4-NPs addition. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) identified functional groups and structural properties. Vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) analyzed magnetic properties. Optimal conditions for AR/CR removal were determined, including Zr-CS/Fe3O4-NPs@PH-AC dose, dye dose, contact time, and temperature, achieving maximum removal percentages. Experimentally determined maximum adsorption capacities for AR and CR were 374.3 and 154.1 mg·g-1, respectively. Cytotoxicity studies affirmed the eco-friendly and non-toxic nature of the adsorbent by exhibiting the reduction in the cell viability from 100 % to 88.68 % from the 0 to 200 μg·L-1 respectively. Additionally, the biocomposite exhibited significant antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) due to magnetic NPs. The material in this study shows extreme compatibility for numerous applications.

SUSTAINABLE CHEMISTRY FOR THE ENVIRONMENT 2024; 6:100092. [PMID: 38947873 PMCID: PMC11212447 DOI: 10.1016/j.scenv.2024.100092] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2023] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024]
Abstract
Untreated tannery wastewater contains a large amount of toxic metals, dyes, and other pollutants, which pose adverse effects on the ecosystem and public health. In this work, a calcium alginate-poly vinyl alcohol-graphene oxide (CA-PVA-GO) composite was prepared to remove metals and dyes, particularly Cr(Ⅲ) and CI acid violet 54 (AV54) dye, from tannery wastewater. FESEM, FTIR, and XRD analyses were applied to characterize the GO and CA-PVA-GO. Different operational variables, viz. pH (3.0-5.5 for Cr(III) and 2-7 for dye), dosage (0.164-2.46 g/L), contact time (10-60 min), initial concentration (39, 65, 98, and 201 ppm for Cr(III) and 21.5, 38.5, 54.5, and 61.75 ppm for dye), and temperature (298, 308, 318, and 328 K) were studied to evaluate the efficiency of the CA-PVA-GO composite. The optimum conditions for Cr(Ⅲ) and AV54 dye adsorption were found to be pH (5.0 and 3.0), dosage (0.82 g/L for both), and time (45 and 60 min), respectively, with 35.35 ± 1.43% and 84.63 ± 2.54% removal efficiency. The experimental data was analyzed through the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The maximum adsorption capacity (qm) was observed at 173.01 and 74.68 mg/g for Cr(Ⅲ) and AV54 dye, respectively. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model was fitted better (R2 = 0.981, 0.995, 0.92, and 0.995) than first-order for AV54 dye adsorption. Thermodynamic analyses revealed that the Cr(Ⅲ) and AV54 dye adsorption processes were spontaneous and exothermic. The value of Gibbs free energy (ΔG) for Cr(III) adsorption was obtained at -7.433, -4.508, -2.626, and -1.311 kJ/mol, whereas it was -5.178, -4.867, -4.628, and -4.555 kJ/mol for dye. The values of ΔH and ΔS were -67.257 and -0.198 kJ/mol for Cr(III) and -10.852 and -0.019 kJ/mol for the dye removal. The regenerated CA-PVA-GO composite was reused successfully. Different physicochemical parameters, viz., concentration, pH, TDS, EC, BOD5, and COD of chrome tanning and dyeing effluents, were analyzed before and after the adsorption. The results of chromium and dye removal from tannery wastewater were 53.18% and 93.91%, revealing that the developed eco-friendly CA-PVA-GO composite could be an operative adsorbent for tannery wastewater treatment and possibly scaled up to an industrial level.

Abstract
The presence of levofloxacin (LEV) in aqueous solutions can pose health risks to humans, have adverse effects on aquatic organisms and ecosystems, and contribute to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This study aims to investigate the feasibility of using electrocoagulation residuals (ECRs) as a heterogeneous catalyst in the electro-Fenton process for degrading LEV. By combining electrocoagulation residuals with sodium alginate, ECRs-alginate beads were synthesized as a heterogeneous electro-Fenton composite. The response surface method was employed to investigate the optimization and influence of various operating parameters such as the initial concentration of LEV (10-50 mg/L), voltage (15-35 V), pH (3-9), and catalyst dose (1-9 g/L). The successful incorporation of iron and other metals into the ECRs-alginate beads was confirmed by characterization tests such as EDX and FTIR. By conducting a batch reaction under optimal conditions (initial LEV concentration = 20 mg/L, pH = 4.5, voltage = 30V, and catalyst dose = 7 g/L), a remarkable degradation of 99% for LEV was achieved. Additionally, under these optimal conditions, a high removal efficiency of 92.3% for total organic carbon (TOC) could be attained within 120 min and these findings are remarkable compared to previous studies. The results further indicated that the degradation of levofloxacin (LEV) could be accurately quantified by utilizing the first-order kinetic reaction with a 0.03 min-1 rate constant. The synthesized beads offered notable advantages in terms of being eco-friendly, simple to use, highly efficient, and easily recoverable from the liquid medium after use.

Abstract
This experimental study was conducted to synthesize magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticles and investigate their efficiency in removing arsenic, brilliant cresyl blue, and neutral red from aqueous solutions. The MgO nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray (EDS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) analyses. The results revealed that the synthesized MgO nanoparticles had a spherical structure with an estimated average size of approximately 30 nm. The influence of solution pH, concentration, adsorbent amount, type of eluent, and interference of interfering ions was examined and optimized for removing arsenic, brilliant cresyl blue, and neutral red. The optimal conditions for the removal process were determined as pH of 7, MgO amount of 0.037 g, ultrasonication time of 16 min, and concentration of 25 mg L-1. The experimental removal efficiencies of arsenic, brilliant cresyl blue, and neutral red in aqueous samples ranged from 88.49% to 96.03%. The results of eluent selection showed that ethanol had the highest removal efficiency of analytes from the absorbent surface. The reusability of the MgO adsorbent demonstrated its effective use for the continuous removal of arsenic, brilliant cresyl blue, and neutral red for at least four consecutive cycles. Overall, the results suggest that MgO nanoparticles could be an effective and cost-efficient adsorbent for removing arsenic, brilliant cresyl blue, and neutral red from real samples.

Abstract
This study evaluated the performance of TiO2-ZnO/biochar as activator of persulfate (PS) for degradation of furfural. After the successful synthesis of the catalyst, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) methods were used to investigate the properties of TiO2-ZnO/biochar. The findings of this research suggests that under optimal conditions (pH = 3, catalyst dosage = 1 g/L, persulfate concentration = 1.2 mM, and furfural concentration = 10 mg/L), the PS/Catalysts/UV system can remove 96 % of furfural within 15 min. Under ideal conditions, the experimental results fit well with the first-order kinetic model (R2 > 0.95), and the rate constant (Kobs) was derived as 0.195 min-1. The quenching experiments provided further insights that confirmed the participation of SO4°- and OH° radicals in the degradation process. Nevertheless, the evidence strongly supports the idea that SO4°- plays a more prominent and dominant role as the primary radical species responsible for furfural degradation. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that the PS/Catalysts/UV system has an appropriate ability to remove furfural from aqueous solutions, which suggests promising perspectives for its practical application in pollutant treatment scenarios.

Abstract
Dye-contaminated wastewaters from the printing batik industry are hazardous if discharged into the environment without any treatment. Finding an optimization and reusability assessment of a new fungal-material composite for dye-contaminated wastewater treatment is important for efficiency. The study purposes to optimize fungal mycelia Trametes hirsuta EDN 082 - light expanded clay aggregate (myco-LECA) composite for real priting batik dye wastewater treatment by using Response Surface Methodology with Central Composite Design (RSM-CCD). The factors included myco-LECA weight (2-6 g), wastewater volume (20-80 mL), and glucose concentration (0-10%) were applied for 144 h of incubation time. The result showed that the optimum condition was achieved at 5.1 g myco-LECA, at 20 mL wastewater, and at 9.1% glucose, respectively. In this condition, the decolorization values with an incubation time of 144 h were 90, 93, and 95%, at wavelengths 570, 620, and 670 nm, respectively. A reusability assessment was conducted for 19 cycles and the result showed that decolorization effectiveness was still above 96%. GCMS analysis showed the degradation of most compounds in the wastewater and the degradation products of the wastewater demonstrated detoxification against Vigna radiata and Artemia salina. The study suggests that myco-LECA composite has a good performance and therefore is a promising method for the treatment of printing batik wastewater.

Abstract
The quest for a cheap, effective, and eco-friendly wastewater treatment technique that is free of secondary toxic byproducts, calls for the fabrication of a nature-friendly adsorbent with a robust capacity to decontaminate polluted water sources and be recycled. To this end, we report the fabrication of novel nanocomposite (KMCM) from microcline (KMC) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The adsorbents (KMC and KMCM) were characterized using XRD, BET, SEM, TGA and FTIR. The novel and low-cost nano sorbent were designed for the elimination of tartrazine (Tatz) from wastewater. The adsorption of Tatz onto KMC and KMCM was influenced by adsorbent dose, initial Tatz concentration, contact time and solution pH. Experimental data acquired from the equilibrium studies were well addressed by the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum uptake capacity of 37.96 mg g-1 and 67.17 mg g-1 were estimated for KMC and KMCM. The kinetics for the adsorption of Tatz onto KMC and KMCM was best expressed by pseudo-second-order and Elovich models. The thermodynamic parameters revealed that the uptake of Tatz onto KMC and KMCM was an endothermic (ΔH: KMC = 35.0 kJ mol-1 and KMCM = 42.91 kJ mol-1), entropy-driven (ΔS: KMC = 177.6 J K-1 mol-1 and KMCM = 214.2 J K-1 mol-1) and spontaneous process. Meanwhile, KMCM demonstrated good reusability potential and superior adsorption efficiency when compared to other adsorbents.

Abstract
The problems of lead and reactive blue 4 (RB4) dye contamination in wastewater are concerns because of their toxicities to aquatic life and water quality, so lead and RB4 dye removals are recommended to remove from wastewater before discharging. Sawdust powder (SP), sawdust powder doped iron (III) oxide-hydroxide (SPF), sawdust beads (SPB), and sawdust powder doped iron (III) oxide-hydroxide beads (SPFB) were synthesized and characterized with various techniques, and their lead or RB4 dye removal efficiencies were investigated by batch experiments, adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and desorption experiments. SPFB demonstrated higher specific surface area (11.020 m2 g-1) and smaller pore size (3.937 nm) than other materials. SP and SPF were irregular shapes with heterogeneous structures whereas SPB and SPFB had spherical shapes with coarse surfaces. Calcium (Ca) and oxygen (O) were found in all materials whereas iron (Fe) was only found in SPF and SPFB. O-H, C-H, C=C, and C-O were detected in all materials. Their lead removal efficiencies of all materials were higher than 82%, and RB4 dye removal efficiencies of SPB and SPFB were higher than 87%. Therefore, adding iron (III) oxide-hydroxide and changing material form helped to improve material efficiencies for lead or RB4 dye adsorption. SP and SPB corresponded to Langmuir model related to a physical adsorption process whereas SPF and SPFB corresponded to the Freundlich model correlated to a chemisorption process. All materials corresponded to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model relating to the chemical adsorption process. All materials could be reused more than 5 cycles with high lead removal of 63%, and SPB and SPFB also could be reused more than 5 cycles for high RB4 dye removal of 72%. Therefore, SPFB was a potential material to apply for lead or RB4 dye removal in industrial applications.

Abstract
This review focuses on the role of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), their physicochemical properties, their potential applications, and their association with the consequent toxicological effects in complex biologic systems. These MNPs have generated an accelerated development and research movement in the last two decades. They are solving a large portion of problems in several industries, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, diagnostics, water remediation, photoelectronics, and information storage, to name a few. As a result, more MNPs are put into contact with biological organisms, including humans, via interacting with their cellular structures. This situation will require a deeper understanding of these particles’ full impact in interacting with complex biological systems, and even though extensive studies have been carried out on different biological systems discussing toxicology aspects of MNP systems used in biomedical applications, they give mixed and inconclusive results. Chemical agencies, such as the Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemical substances (REACH) legislation for registration, evaluation, and authorization of substances and materials from the European Chemical Agency (ECHA), have held meetings to discuss the issue. However, nanomaterials (NMs) are being categorized by composition alone, ignoring the physicochemical properties and possible risks that their size, stability, crystallinity, and morphology could bring to health. Although several initiatives are being discussed around the world for the correct management and disposal of these materials, thanks to the extensive work of researchers everywhere addressing the issue of related biological impacts and concerns, and a new nanoethics and nanosafety branch to help clarify and bring together information about the impact of nanoparticles, more questions than answers have arisen regarding the behavior of MNPs with a wide range of effects in the same tissue. The generation of a consolidative framework of these biological behaviors is necessary to allow future applications to be manageable.

SiO2 was prepared from rice husk (RH) with the assistance of cetrimonium bromide (CTAB), and the CuO•Fe3O4/SiO2 composite was prepared by a simple coprecipitation method to enhance the Fenton-like degradation of dyes in a wide pH range. SiO2 was a mesoporous material with a relatively large surface area of 496.4 m2/g and a highly relative pore volume of 1.154 cm3/g. The Fe3O4 and CuO particles with the size of 20–50 nm were well dispersed in the composite, making the composite tighter and causing the disappearance of large pores in the range of 20–55 nm. The surface area and pore volume of the composite were reduced to 248.6 m2/g and 0.420 cm3/g, respectively. Fe3O4/SiO2 and Fe3O4 samples only exhibited high catalytic activity in an acidic medium, while the CuO•Fe3O4/SiO2 composite could effectively work in a wide pH range of 3–7. Besides, the effects of reaction conditions such as catalyst dosage, H2O2 concentration, and initial dye concentration on the catalytic performance of the composite were studied. The optimal conditions for the degradation of dye were tartrazine (TA) concentration of 50 mg/L, dosage catalyst of 0.5 g/L, H2O2 concentration of 120 mM, and pH 5. The CuO•Fe3O4/SiO2 composite reached the highest activity at pH 5, showing a degradation efficiency (DE) of 93.3% and a reaction rate of 0.061 min−1. The reusability of the catalyst was investigated by cyclic experiments. The DE of the 3rd reuse remained at 55.1%, equivalent to 93.5% of the first use. The catalytic mechanism for the Fenton system has also been proposed.

WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH : A RESEARCH PUBLICATION OF THE WATER ENVIRONMENT FEDERATION 2022; 94:e10755. [PMID: 35789513 DOI: 10.1002/wer.10755] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Revised: 06/06/2022] [Accepted: 06/09/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The Fenton and photo-Fenton oxidation processes (FOP and PFOP) are usually applied as a secondary unit process, and direct usage of both processes is critical in textile wastewater treatment. There is seldom study on the direct application of the FOP or PFOP showing the treatment of raw textile industry wastewaters. This study demonstrates the application and comparison of both FOP and PFOP as single units separately for the treatment of wastewater in a textile industry producing woven fabrics. In both processes, the highest treatment efficiency was achieved at pH 3. Chemical oxygen demand (COD), suspended solids (SS), and color parameters in FOP reduced from 1341 to 254 mg/L, 99.5 to 19.9 mg/L, and 1396 to 97.7 Pt-Co, respectively. Separately, in the PFOP, 365-nm wavelength UV radiation sources have been used. In PFOP, the same parameters were reduced from 715 to 42.9 mg/L, 90 to 9 mg/L, and 2080 to 83.2 Pt-Co, respectively. These results were obtained at 0.7 g Fe2+ /L and 2 mM H2 O2 concentrations in both studies. PFOP can meet the textile industry receiving environment discharge standards of many countries, especially in Turkey. The use of PFOP as a single unit is possible in the treatment of textile industry wastewater without primary precipitation. The findings in this study may be practical for the adaptation of the processes on the field scale. PRACTITIONER POINTS: There is seldom study on the direct application of Fenton or photo-Fenton processes as a single unit to raw textile wastewaters This study shows the application of the Fenton or photo-Fenton processes as single units for the treatment of raw wastewater in a textile industry Results of both processes in this study meet the discharge standards of many countries Evaluations of efficiencies of both processes were achieved This study may be the focus of attention of treatment plant operators and researchers.

Bioremediation of Textile Industrial Effluents Using Nutraceutical Industrial Spent: Laboratory-Scale Demonstration of Circular Economy. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12101684. [PMID: 35630906 PMCID: PMC9147257 DOI: 10.3390/nano12101684] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2022] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
This research reports the first-ever study on abundantly available, environmentally friendly, low-cost and ready-for-use Nutraceutical Industrial Cumin Seed Spent (NICUS) as an innovative adsorbent for bioremediation of a bisazo Acid Red 119 (AR119) dye, a probable mutagen from textile industrial effluents (TIEs). The experiment at the laboratory scale is designed to suit the concepts of sustainability and valorisation under the domain of circular economy. The experimental qe value obtained was 96.00 mg g−1. The optimised conditions of parameters are as follows: pH of 2; adsorption time, 210 min; adsorbent dosage, 0.300 g L−1; particle size, 175 µM; initial dye concentration, 950 mg L−1; orbital shaking, 165 rpm and temperature, 50 °C, producing an impressive value of 748 mg of dye adsorbing on 1 g of dry NICUS. The adsorption capacity of NICUS obtained from the quadratic model developed for process optimisation gave values of 748 mg g−1. As a prelude to commercialisation, five variables that affect the adsorption process were experimentally studied. For the feasibility and efficiency of the process, a two-level fractional factorial experimental design (FFED) was applied to identify variables that influence the adsorption capacity of NICUS. The identified variables were applied to scale experiments by three orders. Nine isotherm models were used to analyse the adsorption equilibrium data. The Vieth–Sladek adsorption isotherm model was found to be the best fit. The pseudo-second-order reaction was the appropriate mechanism for the overall rate of the adsorption process. Mechanistic studies related to mass transfer phenomena were more likely to be dominant over the diffusion process. Techniques such as SEM, FTIR and CHN analysis were used to characterise NICUS. The dye-adsorbed NICUS obtained as “sludge” was used as a reinforcing material for the fabrication of composites using plastic waste. The physicomechanical and chemical properties of thermoplastic and thermoset composite using dye-adsorbed NICUS were evaluated and compared with NICUS composites. Prospects of integrating Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) into the circular economy of Nutraceutical Industrial Spent (NIS) are discussed.

Abstract
Abstract
In this research, the efficiency of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) including Fenton−Peracetic Acid (PAA) and photo-Fenton− PAA in the removal of the Rodamine B (RhB) dye from aqueous solutions were studied. Investigating the effect of operating parameters such as pH (3–9), contact time (2–30 min), PAA concentration (10–80 mg/L), FeCl3.7H2O concentration (10–100 mg/L), and dye concentration (25–500 mg/L) on the performance of AOPs in removal of RhB was considered. The results showed that by decreasing pH and dye concentration, RhB removal efficiency increased. The optimal conditions for removal of RhB using Fenton− PAA process were determined to be as follows: dye concentration = 50 mg/L, pH = 3, PAA concentration = 50 mg/L, contact time = 10 min, and FeCl3 = 50 mg/L; in these conditions, removal efficiency of the RhB was 99.9%. In contrast, the photo-Fenton− PAA process was able to remove this amount of dye in just 5 min. The high performance of the system in a short time is attributed to the synergistic effect of the photo-Fenton− PAA process in the presence of UV. Finally, RhB dye was completely degraded by the photo-Fenton− PAA process and converted into CO2 and H2O products. In general, the photo-Fenton− PAA process compared to other methods can be used as a suitable and reliable method for the treatment of effluents of the dyeing industry and discharge them to the environment.
