Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine disruptor widely used in industrial production, is found in various environmental sources. Despite numerous reports on BPA degradation and removal, the details remain unclear. This paper aims to address this gap by providing a comprehensive review of BPA degradation methods, focusing on biological, physical, and chemical treatments and the factors that affect the degradation of BPA. Firstly, the paper uses VOSviewer software (version 1.6.15) to map out the literature on BPA degradation published in the past 20 years, which reveals the trends and research focus in this field. Next, the advantages and limitations of different BPA degradation methods are discussed. Overall, this review highlights the importance of BPA degradation to protect the environment and human health. The paper provides significant insights for researchers and policymakers to develop better approaches for BPA degradation and removal.

[PMID: 36120114 PMCID: PMC9469769 DOI: 10.1021/acsestengg.2c00201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2022] [Revised: 08/02/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The prevalence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) and their persistence in water supplies have raised serious concerns for drinking water safety and public health. Conventional water treatment technologies, including adsorption and biological treatment, are known to be insufficient in treating OMPs and have demonstrated poor selectivity toward a wide range of OMPs. Pressure-driven membrane filtration has the potential to remove many OMPs detected in water with high selectivity as a membrane's molecular weight cutoff (MWCO), surface charge, and hydrophilicity can be easily tailored to a targeted OMP's size, charge and octanol-water partition coefficient (Kow). Over the past 10 years, polymeric (nano)composite microfiltration (MF), ultrafiltration (UF), and nanofiltration (NF) membranes have been extensively synthesized and studied for their ability to remove OMPs. This review discusses the fate and transport of emerging OMPs in water, an assessment of conventional membrane-based technologies (NF, reverse osmosis (RO), forward osmosis (FO), membrane distillation (MD) and UF membrane-based hybrid processes) for their removal, and a comparison to the state-of-the-art nanoenabled membranes with enhanced selectivity toward specific OMPs in water. Nanoenabled membranes for OMP treatment are further discussed with respect to their permeabilities, enhanced properties, limitations, and future improvements.

Abstract
In the current work, a novel nanocomposite membrane for wastewater treatment applications has been synthesized. A hydrophilic nature nanoadditive comprised grafting polyethylenimine (PEI) molecules onto the surfaces of silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) was synthesized then entrapped within a polyethersulfone polymeric matrix at disparate ratios via the classical phase inversion technique. A series of experimental tools were employed to probe the influence of SiO2-PEI on the surface topography and morphological changes, hydrophilicity, porosity, surface chemistry as well as permeation and dyes retention characteristics of the new nanocomposite. Upon increasing the nanoadditives content (up to 0.7 wt. % SiO2- PEI), clear cross-sectional changes were depicted along with a noticeable decline in the water contact angle by 29.7%. Performance evaluation measurements against synthetic dye solutions were disclosed explicit enhancement in both; retention and permeation characteristics of the nanocomposite membranes. Besides, prolonged permeation test has maintained high flux stability against real textile wastewater; implying better resistance and self-cleaning characteristics have been achieved.

Defect-rich porous carbon with anti-interference capability for adsorption of bisphenol A via long-range hydrophobic interaction synergized with short-range dispersion force. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 403:123705.

Abstract
Wastewater features-directed design of an adsorbent is promising but challenging strategy for sustainable remediation of actual bisphenol A (BPA)-polluted water. Herein, we report that the discarded cigarette butt-derived porous carbon (AC-800) exhibit high capacity (865 mg/g), rapid reaction rate (186.9 mg/g/min) and outstanding durability for adsorption of BPA. Different from the most reported carbon-based adsorbents, quantitative structure-activity relationship studies unveil that graphitic defect plays a crucial role in the improvement of adsorptivity. Further studies illuminate that π-π interactions, electrostatic attraction and hydrogen-bond interaction play a negligible role whereas long-range hydrophobic interaction synergized with short-range dispersion force make a substantial contribution to BPA adsorption on AC-800. Benefited from this unique adsorption mechanism, AC-800 features a remarkable anti-interference capability and realizes the efficient clean-up of BPA from actual wastewater with complex backgrounds. This work sheds new light on mechanistic insight into the BPA adsorption on carbon-based materials and develops a fit-for-purpose designed adsorbent toward green remediation of practical wastewater.

Abstract
Water is a critical resource necessary for life to be sustained, and its availability should be secured, appropriated, and easily obtainable. The continual detection of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) (ng/L or µg/L) in water and wastewater has attracted critical concerns among the regulatory authorities and general public, due to its associated public health, ecological risks, and a threat to global water quality. Presently, there is a lack of stringent discharge standards regulating the emerging multiclass contaminants to obviate its possible undesirable impacts. The conventional treatment processes have reportedly ineffectual in eliminating the persistent EDCs pollutants, necessitating the researchers to develop alternative treatment methods. Occurrences of the EDCs and the attributed effects on humans and the environment are adequately reviewed. It indicated that comprehensive information on the recent advances in the rejection of EDCs via a novel membrane and membrane bioreactor (MBR) treatment techniques are still lacking. This paper critically studies and reports on recent advances in the membrane and MBR treatment methods for removing EDCs, fouling challenges, and its mitigation strategies. The removal mechanisms and the operating factors influencing the EDCs remediation were also examined. Membranes and MBR approaches have proven successful and viable to eliminate various EDCs contaminants.

Abstract
Massive utilization of bisphenol A (BPA) in the industrial production of polycarbonate plastics has led to the occurrence of this compound (at μg/L to ng/L level) in the water treatment plant. Nowadays, the presence of BPA in drinking water sources is a major concern among society because BPA is one of the endocrine disruption compounds (EDCs) that can cause hazard to human health even at extremely low concentration level. Parallel to these issues, membrane technology has emerged as the most feasible treatment process to eliminate this recalcitrant contaminant via physical separation mechanism. This paper reviews the occurrences and effects of BPA toward living organisms as well as the application of membrane technology for their removal in water treatment plant. The potential applications of using polymeric membranes for BPA removal are also discussed. Literature revealed that modifying membrane surface using blending approach is the simple yet effective method to improve membrane properties with respect to BPA removal without compromising water permeability. The regeneration process helps in maintaining the performances of membrane at desired level. The application of large-scale membrane process in treatment plant shows the feasibility of the technology for removing BPA and possible future prospect in water treatment process.
