Abstract
The bamboo family of plants is one of the fastest-growing species in the world. As such, there is an abundance of bamboo residues available for exploitation, especially in southeast Asian, central African and south American regions. The preparation of efficient adsorbents from bamboo residues is an emerging exploitation pathway. Biochars, activated carbons or raw bamboo fibers embedded with nanoparticles, each class of materials has been shown to be highly efficient in adsorption processes. This review aims to summarize recent findings in the application of bamboo-based adsorbents in the removal of organic, inorganic, or gaseous pollutants. Therefore, this review first discusses the preparation methods and surface modification methodologies and their effects on the adsorbent elemental content and other basic properties. The following sections assess the recent progress in the adsorption of heavy metals, organics, and gaseous substances by bamboo-based adsorbents, focusing on the optimum adsorption capacities, adsorption mechanisms and the optimum-fitting kinetic models and isotherms. Finally, research gaps were identified and directions for future research are proposed.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28083410. [PMID: 37110642 PMCID: PMC10145064 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28083410] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 04/06/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
To effectively remove methylene blue (MB) from dye wastewater, a novel activated carbon (BAC) was manufactured through co-pyrolysis of bamboo shoot shell and K2FeO4. The activation process was optimized to a temperature of 750 °C and an activation time of 90 min based on its excellent adsorption capacity of 560.94 mg/g with a yield of 10.03%. The physicochemical and adsorption properties of BACs were investigated. The BAC had an ultrahigh specific surface area of 2327.7 cm2/g and abundant active functional groups. The adsorption mechanisms included chemisorption and physisorption. The Freundlich model could be used to describe the isothermal adsorption of MB. The kinetics confirmed that the adsorption of MB belonged to the pseudo-second-order model. Intra-particle diffusion was the main rate-limiting step. The thermodynamic study showed that the adsorption process was endothermic and temperature was beneficial for the improvement of adsorption property. Furthermore, the removal rate of MB was 63.5% after three cycles. The BAC will have great potential for commercial development for purifying dye wastewater.

Abstract
Preparation of a novel environmentally friendly and cost-effective composite adsorbent for fluoride removal is presented in this work. An activated sludge lysis ash/chitosan (ASLA/C) composite adsorbent was synthesised using an in situ coprecipitation method, and the removal effect of the material was analysed by static adsorption, isothermal adsorption and kinetic adsorption tests. Langmuir model could better describe the adsorption process and the adsorption was in accordance with the kinetic equation of the pseudo-second-order kinetics reaction. The values of adsorption thermodynamic and kinetic parameters were indicated that the adsorption of fluoride ions is a spontaneous, heat-absorbing entropic process, and the reaction was carried out by a combination of mechanisms, such as electrostatic adsorption, ion exchange, surface complexation and hydrogen bonding. The experimental results indicated that ASLA/C can be used as a cheap and readily available alternative efficient adsorbent where the maximum fluorinate absorption was observed with 7.714 mg g-1, while solving the problem of waste from activated sludge lysis disposal and realizing the environmental benefits of waste.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2022; 304:114297.

Abstract
A magnetic nitrogen-doped sludge-based biochar (NAlSB-Fe-Si) was prepared based on waterworks sludge for raw material and dicyandiamide for nitrogen source to adsorb methylene blue (MB) from water. And the magnetic particles loaded on the adsorbent were obtained through functionalizing iron and silicon ions which were extracted from the biochar by acid and alkali impregnation. Physicochemical properties of sludge-based biochar (SB) were analyzed by SEM, BET, FTIR, XRD, XPS and VSM. Compared with the original biochar, NAlSB-Fe-Si had richer pore structure and higher pore volume, and the SiO2 and Fe3O4 loading made the specific surface area increased by 200%. Possible adsorption mechanism was proposed by exploring the initial pH, MB concentration and reaction time. Results revealed that alkaline environment was more conducive to the rapid removal of cationic dyes such as MB. Pseudo-second-order kinetic model and intra-particle diffusion model could describe the adsorption behavior of MB on NAlSB-Fe-Si. The fitting results of Langmuir model showed that adsorption temperature is positively correlated with adsorption capacity, and the maximum adsorption capacity of MB on nitrogen-doped sludge-based biochar (NSB) and NAlSB-Fe-Si at 25 °C was 26.47 and 300.36 mg/g, respectively. Finally, the MB removal rate of NAlSB-Fe-Si could still reach 70% after four cycles, indicating that the composite was an efficient cationic dye adsorbent, and its preparation could be regarded as a way of resource utilization of waterworks sludge.

Abstract
Pore development and the formation of oxygen functional groups were studied for activated carbon prepared from bamboo (Bambusa bambos) using a two-step activation with CO2, as functions of carbonization temperature and activation conditions (time and temperature). Results show that activated carbon produced from bamboo contains mostly micropores in the pore size range of 0.65 to 1.4 nm. All porous properties of activated carbons increased with the increase in the activation temperature over the range from 850 to 950 °C, but decreased in the temperature range of 950 to 1000 °C, due principally to the merging of neighboring pores. The increase in the activation time also increased the porous properties linearly from 60 to 90 min, which then dropped from 90 to 120 min. It was found that the carbonization temperature played an important role in determining the number and distribution of active sites for CO2 gasification during the activation process. Empirical equations were proposed to conveniently predict all important porous properties of the prepared activated carbons in terms of carbonization temperature and activation conditions. Oxygen functional groups formed during the carbonization and activation steps of activated carbon synthesis and their contents were dependent on the preparation conditions employed. Using Boehm's titration technique, only phenolic and carboxylic groups were detected for the acid functional groups in both the chars and activated carbons in varying amounts. Empirical correlations were also developed to estimate the total contents of the acid and basic groups in activated carbons in terms of the carbonization temperature, activation time and temperature.
