Abstract
Nanocellulose is a bio-based material that holds significant potential in the field of water purification. Of particular interest is their potential use as a key sorbent material for the removal of metal ions from solution. However, the structure of metal ions adsorbed onto cellulose surfaces is not well understood. The focus of this work is to determine quantitatively the three-dimensional distribution of metal ions of different valencies surrounding negatively charged carboxylate functionalized cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) using anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering (ASAXS). These distributions can affect the water and ionic permeability in these materials. The data show that increasing the carboxylate density on the surface of the CNCs from 740 to 1100 mmol/kg changed the nature of the structure of the adsorbed ions from a monolayer into a multilayer structure. The monolayer was modeled as a Stern layer around the CNC nanoparticles, whereas the multilayer structure was modeled as a diffuse layer on top of the Stern layer around the nanoparticles. Within the Stern layer, the maximum ion density increases from 1680 to 4350 mmol of Rb+/(kg of CNC) with the increase in the carboxylate density on the surface of the nanoparticles. Additionally, the data show that CNCs can leverage multiple mechanisms, such as electrostatic attraction and the chaotropic effect, to adsorb ions of different valencies. By understanding the spatial organization of the adsorbed metal ions, the design of cellulose-based sorbents can be further optimized to improve the uptake capacity and selectivity in separation applications.

Revealing the role of calcium alginate-biochar composite for simultaneous removing SO 42- and Fe 3+ in AMD: Adsorption mechanisms and application effects. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 329:121702.

Abstract
The remediation of acid mine drainage (AMD) is particularly challenging because it contains a large amount of Fe3+ and a high concentration of SO42-. To reduce the pollution caused by SO42- and Fe3+ in AMD and realize the recycling of solid waste, this study used distillers grains as raw materials to prepare biochar at different pyrolysis temperatures. Calcium alginate-biochar composite (CA-MB) was further synthesized via the entrapment method and used to simultaneously remove SO42- and Fe3+ from AMD. The effects of different influencing factors on the sorption process of SO42- and Fe3+ were studied through batch adsorption experiments. The adsorption behaviors and mechanisms of SO42- and Fe3+ were investigated with different adsorption models and characterizations. The results showed that the adsorption process of CA-MDB600 on SO42- and Fe3+ could be well described by Elovich and Langmuir-Freundlich models. It was further proved by the site energy analysis that the adsorption mechanisms of SO42- onto CA-MDB600 were mainly surface precipitation and electrostatic attraction, while that of Fe3+ removal was attributed to ion exchange, precipitation, and complexation. The applications of CA-MDB600 in actual AMD proved its good application potential. This study indicates that CA-MDB600 could be applied as a promising eco-friendly adsorbent for the remediation of AMD.

Abstract
In this study, water treatment sludge was investigated through batch modes for the treatment of saline water to meet livestock drinking consents. The water quality was assessed using water quality index (WQI).The kinetic data was best described by the Pseudo - Second - Order model and the equilibrium isotherm by the Freundlich model. The maximum removal efficiency was 51.5 ± 0.65%, 22.6 ± 0.5% and 100% for Sulphates (SO4 2-), Chloride (Cl-), and Nitrates (NO3 -), respectively. The maximum removal efficiency of sodium (Na) and nickel (Ni) was 100% each at 0.4g dose and that of manganese (Mn) was 87.5% at 1.2g dose. The effect of temperature revealed that the adsorption capacity for anions, decreased with increasing temperature, whereas for the cations the adsorption capacities increased with increasing temperature. The water treatment sludge reduced the total dissolved solids (TDS) and electrical conductivity (EC) from the initial values of 19600 mgL-1 and 38900 μScm-1 to 98 mgL-1 and 1728 μScm-1,respectively. The Water Quality Indices were 37.35 and 7.57, before and after treatment, respectively. Water treatment sludge can be used for the pre-treatment process before using conventional treatment technologies. Pilot scale investigations should be conducted before field trials.

Abstract
This paper estimates the suitability of the strongly basic anion exchangers, Dowex PSR2 and Dowex PSR3, as sorbents of nickel ions in aqueous solutions. These actions are aimed at searching for new solutions due to the growing discharge of nickel into wastewaters, primarily due to its addition to steel. The nickel sorption experiments were conducted under static conditions and resulted in the optimization of pH, phase contact time, initial solution concentration, and temperature. The next step was to calculate the kinetic, isothermal, and thermodynamic parameters. Moreover, the ion exchangers were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and CHN elemental analysis. It was found that the sorption process was most effective at pH 6 after 240 min and at the temperature of 293 K. The values of the thermodynamic parameters revealed that the adsorption was exothermic and spontaneous. The physicochemical analyses combined with the experimental research enabled determination of the sorption mechanism of Ni(II) ions.

Abstract
Alginate is a polysaccharide with the property of forming hydrogels, which is economic production, zero toxicity, and biocompatibility. In the agro-industry, alginate is used as a super absorbent polymer, coating seeds, fruits, and vegetables and as a carrier of bacteria and fungi as plant-growth promoters and biocontrol. The latter has a high impact on agriculture since the implementation of microorganisms in a polymer matrix improves soil quality; plant nutrition, and is functional as a preventive measure for the appearance of phytopathogenic. Additionally, it minimizes losses of foods due to wrong post-harvest handling. In this review, we provide an overview of physicochemical properties of alginate, some methods for preparation and modification of capsules and coatings, to finally describe its application in agro-industry as a matrix of plant-growth-promoting microorganisms, its effectiveness in cultivation and post-harvest, and its effect on the environment, as well as the prospects for future agro-industrial applications.

Abstract
The green synthesis of titanium dioxide nanoparticles was performed using the sol-gel method for their use in the modification of several agricultural biomasses (orange, lemon, cassava and yam peels) to evaluate the enhancement of adsorption capacity. To this end, different particle sizes (0.355, 0.5 and 1.0 mm) and initial solution pHs (2, 4 and 6) were assessed to identify the optimum conditions for further experimentation with the selected lignocellulosic materials. The defined conditions reporting the highest removal yields were used to perform adsorption experiments for chemically modified biosorbents. The biomaterials were characterized via elemental and bromatological analysis in order to quantify their composition. After the incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles, the resulting biosorbents were characterized via FT-IR and SEM techniques. The results revealed that the pH solution significantly affects the nickel ion uptake, reaching the best performance at pH = 6 for all biomasses. Unmodified biomasses shown adsorption capacities between 18–20 mg/g. For chemically modified with TiO2 orange peels and yam peels biomass, the increase in adsorption capacities was 21.3 and 18.01 mg/g, respectively. For cassava and lemon peels chemically modified, it was found the increasing in adsorption capacities with values of 21.3 and 18.01 mg/g, respectively, which suggested that the incorporation of nanoparticles enhances adsorption capacities.

Abstract
Flocculation is still one of the most important and efficient processes for water treatment. However, most industrial processes, such as in water treatment plants, still use huge amounts of synthetic polyelectrolytes for the flocculation process. Here we compare the flocculation of two different suspended particles, i.e., silica particles and china clay, with the biopolymer chitosan and two common strong synthetic polyelectrolytes. As a flocculant, chitosan featured a minimum uptake rate of 0.05 mg/g for silica and 1.8 mg/g for china clay. Polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDADMAC) for comparison possessed a minimum uptake rate of 0.05 mg/g for silica and 2.2 mg/g for china clay. Chitosan as an environmentally friendly biopolymer competes with the synthetic polyelectrolytes and thus represents a beneficial economic alternative to synthetic flocculants.

Abstract
In recent years, chitosan has attracted considerable interest in many fields due to its sufficient charge density under biological, non-hazardous conditions. Since chitosan originates from natural resources and has two different monomer units, its characterization must be carried out in a goal-oriented and precise manner. This work focuses on the characterization of chitosans most important parameters - solubility, crystallinity, degree of deacetylation (DD) and molecular weight - in a simple and convenient way. The DD was determined using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (NMR), Particle Charge Detection (PCD), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), CHN elemental analysis (CHN-EA) and conductometric/potentiometric titration with special attention to its physical state as solid or liquid. Investigation of DD by FTIR was successfully determined by calculating peak heights, peak areas and peak deconvolution from a linear combination of Gaussian and Lorentzian functions. Asymmetrical flow field flow fractionation with light scattering detection (AF4-LS) was applied in order to calculate molar masses and radii. In addition, pH-potentiometric titrations demonstrated a reproducible displacement of the point of zero charge (PZC) in form of a hysteresis depending on the titration direction. The DD affects the crystallinity, which was determined by deconvolution of the crystalline and amorphous domains.

Abstract
Composite solid surfaces with high content of functional groups (FGs) are useful materials in different types of applications requiring stimuli-responsive "hard/soft" architectures, their improved properties rising from the combination of organic-inorganic parts. Among different types of weak polyelectrolytes, poly(ethyleneimine) (PEI) is of great interest in the construction of composite systems with thin layer-by-layer (LbL) organic films due to the large number of amino groups per unit mass of polymer. Herein, the spherical silica microparticles were modified with linear (L) or branched (B) PEI chains using LbL deposition of a copper complex (PEIL-Cu2+ or PEIB-Cu2+) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), glutaraldehyde selective cross-linking, followed by copper and PAA extraction from the multilayer. The newly formed silica/(PEIL)10 and silica/(PEIB)10 composites were used in batch and column sorption/desorption experiments of four heavy metal ions (Cu2+, Ni2+, Co2+, and Cd2+). In noncompetitive conditions ([FG]/Σ[M2+] > 9), all heavy metal ions were retained on composites, demonstrating the potential application of the prepared functional microparticles in surface water treatment. However, in competitive conditions ([FG]/Σ[M2+] < 9), only Cu2+ is sorbed in high amount (∼2.5 mmol·g-1 PEI) on composites, with simultaneous displacement of already sorbed ions, demonstrating the solid-phase extraction and chromatographic properties of the synthesized silica/(PEIL)n and silica/(PEIB)n composites.

Abstract
The biopolymer chitosan is a very efficient adsorber material for the removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. Due to the solubility properties of chitosan it can be used as both a liquid adsorber and a solid flocculant for water treatment reaching outstanding adsorption capacities for a number of heavy metal ions. However, the type of anion corresponding to the investigated heavy metal ions has a strong influence on the adsorption capacity and sorption mechanism on chitosan. In this work, the adsorption capacity of the heavy metal ions manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, and zinc were investigated in dependence on their corresponding anions sulfate, chloride, and nitrate by batch experiments. The selectivity of the different heavy metal ions was analyzed by column experiments.

Abstract
For groundwater treatment, the technologies involving oxidation on MnOx filter bed are beneficial, common, and effectively used. The presence of MnOx is the mutual feature of filter media, both MnOx-coated mineral materials like quartz sand and gravel, chalcedonite, diatomite, glauconite, zeolite, or anthracite along with consisting of MnOx manganese ores. This review is based on the analysis of research and review papers, commercial data sheets, and standards. The paper aimed to provide new suggestions and useful information for further investigation of MnOx filter media for groundwater treatment. The presented compilations are based on the characteristics of coatings, methods, and conditions of its obtaining and type of filter media. The relationship between the properties of MnOx amendments and the obtained purification effects as well as the commonly used commercial products, their features, and applications have been discussed. The paper concludes by mentioning about improving catalytic/adsorption properties of non-reactive siliceous media opposed to ion-exchange minerals and about possible significance of birnessite type manganese oxide for water treatment. Research needs related to the assessment of the use MnOx filter media to heavy metals removal from groundwater in field operations and to standardize methodology of testing MnOx filter media for water treatment were identified.

Review of Heavy Metal Adsorption Processes by Several Organic Matters from Wastewaters. WATER 2018. [DOI: 10.3390/w10101377] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Heavy metal contamination of natural rivers and wastewaters is a problem for both the environment and human society. The accumulation and adsorption of heavy metals could happen with several organic and inorganic matters, but the most used adsorbents are (biological and chemical) organic compounds. This review article presents the basics of heavy metal adsorption on several organic surfaces. There are many organic matters, which seem to be useful as agents for heavy metal adsorption. All of the cited authors and articles present the adsorption kinetics by the most used isotherm models (such as Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms). By comparing several research results presented by a pre-selected assortment of papers, we would like to give an overview of the microbiological, organic chemical, and other surface adsorption possibilities. We draw conclusions for two new adsorption fields (adsorption with biosorbent and artificial materials). We present an optional possibility to study adsorption kinetics, efficiency and regeneration methods to successfully conclude the heavy metal treatment process, and we make some recommendations about the efficient water usage calculations using the water allowance coefficient (WAC) indicator.
