Abstract
Toxic organic dyes (colorants) are one of the main causes of water pollution that releases destructive effluents in the environment. To overcome this issue, a fundamental need to produce a novel, efficient catalyst for the degradation and mineralization of dye mixtures has arisen. The objective of this research is to develop an eminent Ni-doped magnetic carbon aerogel (Ni-MCA) catalyst using graft co-polymerization method having xanthan gum as backbone doped with Ni-magnetic nanoparticles (Ni-MNPs), that do not show agglomeration and easy to separate. The examination revealed that Ni-MCA provided exceptional magnetic characteristics (Ms = 52.75 emu/g) and potent catalytic activity for the degradation of mono- as well as binary-dye solutions of Congo red (CR) and methyl green (MG) dyes. The formation was verified by various characterization techniques such as FTIR, VSM, XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, and EDX mapping. Interestingly, Ni-MCA shows faster result on anionic dye CR up to 97% with degradation rate of 5.647 × 10-1 min-1, and MG dye shows degradation of 95.7% with the degradation rate of 2.169 × 10-1 min-1, while dye mixture is showing 90% degradation with rate of 2.159 × 10-1 min-1.

Abstract
The growing requirement for clean potable water requires sustainable methods of eliminating heavy metal ions and other organic contaminants. Herein, we synthesized a novel dual-purpose magnetically separable chitosan-based hydrogel system (CSGO-R@IO) that can efficiently remove toxic Cu2+ pollutants from water. FT-IR, XRD, SEM-EDX, VSM, XPS analyses were used to characterize the synthesized hydrogel. The CSGO-R@IO hydrogel showed high swelling capacity (1036.06 %), prominent adsorption capacity for Cu2+ ions (119.5 mg/g), and good recyclability up to four cycles. The adsorption data of Cu+2 ions on hydrogel fitted better to the Langmuir isotherm model (R2 = 0.9942), indicating spontaneous monolayer adsorption of Cu2+ ions on a homogenous surface. The adsorption kinetic studies fitted better with the pseudo-second-order model (R2 = 0.9992), suggesting that the adsorption process was controlled by chemisorption. We also showed a sustainable way to convert harmful Cu2+ pollutants into valuable Cu nanoparticles for catalysis, and Cu nanoparticles loaded hydrogel (CSGO-R@IO/Cu) had high catalytic activity. Hence, building attractive multipurpose hydrogel systems will give us new ideas about how to design and use new adsorbents to clean water in real life. They will also help in recycle metals (copper and maybe others) to conserve resources.

Abstract
Currently, there is a major problem of water contaminations, especially of dyes, all over the world. A new technique is being developed daily for the treatment of contaminated water. In many ways, a photocatalytic degradation of a dye by a mixed metal oxide photocatalyst is counted as the best technique for water treatment. This paper also addresses the preparation and photocatalytic application of newly developed mixed metal oxide nanocomposite, CuO-ZnO-CdWO4. A novel mixed metal oxide CuO-ZnO-CdWO4 nanocomposite has been synthesized by a green route using Brassica Rapa leaves extract. The application of CuO-ZnO-CdWO4 as a photocatalyst in wastewater treatment has been thoroughly discussed. Several spectroscopic and microscopic techniques were used to characterize the prepared nanocomposite. The photocatalytic activity of CuO-ZnO-CdWO4 nanocomposite with a band gap of 3.13 eV was observed under the artificial visible light and sunlight for the degradation of Congo red dye. The results under sunlight show the 1.45 times greater removal efficiency than under the artificial visible light. Pseudo-first-order, diffusion, and Singh kinetics models were used to describe the kinetics of dye degradation. Pseudo-first-order model was found to be best fitted model for present study. The performance of CuO-ZnO-CdWO4 was estimated by significant parameters such as quantum yield, figure of merit, turnover number, and mean turnover frequency. The value these parameters were calculated as 1.70 × 10-8 molecules photon-1, 1.77 × 10-4, 2.98 × 108 s-1, and 3.31 × 10-4 s-1, respectively. These parameters revealed high potential of CuO-ZnO-CdWO4 for Congo red dye degradation.

Abstract
Here, we present the low-temperature (∼600 °C) solution combustion method for the fabrication of CoFe2O4, NiFe2O4, and Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticles (NPs) of 12-64 nm range in pure cubic spinel structure, by adjusting the oxidant (nitrate ions)/reductant (glycine) ratio in the reaction mixture. Although nitrate ions/glycine (N/G) ratios of 3 and 6 were used for the synthesis, phase-pure NPs could be obtained only for the N/G ratio of 6. For the N/G ratio 3, certain amount of Ni2+ cations was reduced to metallic nickel. The NH3 gas generated during the thermal decomposition of the amino acid (glycine, H2NCH2COOH) induced the reduction reaction. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques were utilized to characterize the synthesized materials. XRD analyses of the samples indicate that the Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 NPs have lattice parameter larger than that of NiFe2O4, but smaller than that of CoFe2O4 NPs. Although the saturation magnetization (M s) of Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 NPs lies in between the saturation magnetization values of CoFe2O4 and NiFe2O4 NPs, high coercivity (H c, 875 Oe) of the NPs indicate their hard ferromagnetic behavior. Catalytic behavior of the fabricated spinel NPs revealed that the samples containing metallic Ni are active catalysts for the degradation of 4-nitrophenol in aqueous medium.

Abstract
This study reports a one-pot and eco-friendly method for the synthesis of spherical ibuprofen derived silver nanoparticles (IBU-AgNPs) in aqueous media using ibuprofen analgesics drug as capping as well as reducing agent. Formation of AgNPs occurred within a few min (less than 5 min) at room temperature without resorting to any harsh conditions and hazardous organic solvents. Synthesized AgNPs were characterized with common analytical techniques. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images confirmed the formation of spherical particles having a size distribution in the range of 12.5 ± 1.5 nm. Employment of IBU analgesic aided the control of better size distribution and prevented agglomeration of particles. Such AgNPs solution was highly stable for more than two months when stored at ambient temperature. The IBU-AgNPs solution showed excellent ultra-rapid catalytic activity for the complete degradation of toxic 4-nitrophenol (4-NPh) into non-toxic 4-aminophenol (4-APh) within 40 s. AgNPs were recovered with the help of water insoluble-room temperature ionic liquid and reused with enhanced catalytic potential. This method provides a novel, rapid and economical alternative for the treatment of toxic organic pollutants to maintain water quality and environmental safety against water pollution. It is extendable for the control of other reducible contaminants in water as well. Furthermore, this catalytic activity for an effective degradation of organic toxins is expected to play a crucial role for achieving the Sustainable Development Goal 6 set by United Nations.
