JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2024; 365:121609. [PMID: 38943744 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2024.121609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/23/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024]
Abstract
Sustainable management of critical raw materials is of paramount importance to ensure a steady supply and reduce environmental impact. The application of newly synthesized and environmentally friendly ALG@CS material as a bio-adsorbent for the effective rare earth elements removal from aqueous solution has been presented. The synthesized material underwent FTIR, XPS, EDX, and SEM analysis to determine its suitability for metal uptake. To evaluate the adsorption capacity of ALG@CS for rare earth elements several factors were taken into consideration. These factors included alginate:chitosan ratios, bead size, pH level, composite mass, interaction time, metal ion concentration, and temperature, being all varied during the batch mode evaluation process. Under the optimal conditions, the maximum adsorption capacities were found to be 145.90 mg La(III)/g, 168.44 mg Ce(III)/g, 132.51 mg Pr(III)/g, 128.40 mg Nd(III)/g, 154.36 mg Sm(III)/g, and 165.10 mg Ho(III)/g. The equilibrium data fits well with non-linear three-parameter Sips and Redlich-Peterson isotherm models. The PSO model finds the highest process suitability. The synthesized ALG@CS bio-adsorbent showed excellent regenerative capacity in ten cycles, making it a suitable adsorbent for rare earth elements uptake. The unique bio-adsorbents combination allows for efficient critical raw materials adsorption providing a promising solution for their recovery and recycling.

Abstract
We report the preparation of surfactant-assisted carbon nanotube dispersions using gum arabic, Triton X-100, and graphene oxide as dispersing agents for removing rare earth elements in an aqueous solution. The analytical tools, including (a) scanning electron microscopy and (b) neutron activation analysis, were utilized for qualitative and quantitative examinations, respectively. Neutron activation analysis was employed to quantitatively determine the percent of extraction of nuclides onto the carbon structure, while the images produced from the scanning electron microscope allowed the morphological structure of the surfactant-CNT complex to be analyzed. This report tested the effects responsible for nuclide removal onto CNTs, including the adsorbent to target mass ratio, the CNT concentration and manufacturing process, the pH, and the ionic radius. Observable trends in nuclide extraction were found for each parameter change, with the degree of dispersion displaying high dependency.

Abstract
The demand for new renewable energy sources, improved energy storage and exhaust-free transportation requires the use of large quantities of rare earth (REE) and late transition (LTM, group 8-12) elements. In order to achieve sustainability in their use, an efficient green recycling technology is required. Here, an approach, a synthetic route and an evaluation of the designed bio-based material are reported. Cotton-derived nano cellulose particles were functionalized with a polyamino ligand, tris(2-aminoethyl) amine (TAEA), achieving ligand content of up to ca. 0.8 mmol g-1. The morphology and structure of the produced adsorbent were revealed by PXRD, SEM-EDS, AFM and FTIR techniques. The adsorption capacity and kinetics of REE and LTM were investigated by conductometric photometric titrations, revealing quick uptake, high adsorption capacity and pronounced selectivity for LTM compared to REE. Molecular insights into the mode of action of the adsorbent were obtained via the investigation of the molecular structure of the Ni(II)-TAEA complex by an X-ray single crystal study. The bio-based adsorbent nanomaterial demonstrated in this work opens up a perspective for tailoring specific adsorbents in the sequestration of REE and LTM for their sustainable recycling.

Abstract
Although they are not as favorable as other influential gas sensors, metal-oxide semiconductor-based chemiresistors ensure minimal surface reactivity, restricting their gas selectivity, gas response, and reaction kinetics, particularly when functioning at room temperature (RT). A hybrid design, which includes metal-oxide/carbon nanostructures and passivation with specific gas filtration layers, can address the concerns of surface reactivity. We present a novel hierarchical nanostructured zinc oxide (ZnO), decorated with graphitic carbon (GC) and synthesized via a wet-chemical strategy, which is then followed by the self-assembly of a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8). Because of its large surface area, high porosity, and efficient inspection of other analyte (interfering) gases, the ZnO@GC can provide intensified surface reactivity at RT. In the present study, such a hybrid sensor confirmed extraordinary gas sensing properties, which was characterized by excellent H2 selectivity, fast response, rapid recovery kinetics, and high gas response (ΔR/R0 ∼ 124.6%@10 ppm), particularly in extremely humid environments. The results reveal that adsorption sites provided by the ZIF-8 template-based ZnO@GC frameworks facilitate the adsorption and desorption of H2.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 425:127771.

Abstract
A new zirconium-based adsorption material (UiO-66-AMP) was prepared by modifying UiO-66-NH2 with 5-adenosine to effectively remove Pb(II) and Cr(VI) from wastewater. The SEM, EDS, XRS and FT-IR characterization confirmed the successful synthesis of UiO-66-AMP. We conducted a sets of experiments to test the adsorption effectiveness of UiO-66-AMP for Pb(II) and Cr(VI). The maximum adsorption capacity of UiO-66-AMP for Cr(VI) (pH=2) and Pb(II) (pH=4) are 196.60 and 189.69 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption process conforms to the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models, which indicates that the adsorption is a single-layer chemical process. Gibbs free energy (∆G) indicates that the adsorption of Pb(II) is an exothermic reaction, while the adsorption of Cr(VI) is an endothermic reaction. At the same time, the adsorbent maintains excellent adsorption capacity at least after 4 cycles. The good adsorption performance of UiO-66-AMP towards the metal ions was attributed to the surface complexation and electrostatic interactions. Therefore, the new adsorbent has obvious application prospect to remove Pb(II) and Cr(VI) from wastewater.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) is a natural biopolymer that has gained great interest in many research fields due to its promising biocompatibility, biodegradability, and favorable mechanical properties. The versatility of this low-cost polymer allows for a variety of chemical modifications via covalent conjugation and non-covalent interactions, which are designed to further improve the properties of interest. This review aims at presenting the broad range of functionalization strategies reported over the last five years to reflect the state-of-the art of CS derivatization. We start by describing covalent modifications performed on the CS backbone, followed by non-covalent CS modifications involving small molecules, proteins, and metal adjuvants. An overview of CS-based systems involving both covalent and electrostatic modification patterns is then presented. Finally, a special focus will be given on the characterization techniques commonly used to qualify the composition and physical properties of CS derivatives.

Abstract
2,2′-thiobisethanol dimethacrylate/ethylene glycol dimethacrylate copolymer (coP-TEDMA/EGDMA) was used as a sorbent for gold recovery from residual solutions resulting from the electroplating industry. Firstly, synthesized material was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The sorption process mechanism was evidenced on the basis of kinetic, thermodynamic and equilibrium studies. To highlight this, the influence of solution pH, temperature and gold initial concentration on maximum sorption capacity was studied. The obtained experimental data were modeled using Langmuir, Freundlich and Sips sorption isotherms, and it was observed that the Sips one was better for describing the studied sorption process. Kinetic data were fitted using pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. Of these models, the studied process was better described by the pseudo-second-order model. The thermodynamic parameters free Gibbs energy (ΔG0), enthalpy (ΔH0), and entropy (ΔS0) were evaluated on the basis of the van’t Hoff equation. On the basis of the thermodynamic study, it was concluded that gold recovery on coP-TEDMA/EGDMA is a spontaneous and endothermic process.
