Abstract
As a noble metal with extremely high economic benefits, the recovery of silver ions has attracted a particular deal of attention. However, it is a challenge to recover silver ions efficiently and selectively from aqueous solutions. In this research, the novel metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) adsorbent (Zr-DPHT) is prepared for the highly efficient and selective recovery of silver ions from wastewater. Experimental findings reveal that Zr-DPHT's adsorption of Ag(I) constitutes an endothermic process, with an optimal pH of 5 and exhibits a maximum adsorption capacity of 268.3 mg·g-1. Isotherm studies show that the adsorption of Ag(I) by Zr-DPHT is mainly monolayer chemical adsorption. Kinetic studies indicate that the internal diffusion of Ag(I) in Zr-DPHT may be the rate-limiting step. The mechanism for Ag(I) adsorption on Zr-DPHT involves electrostatic interactions and chelation. In competitive adsorption, Ag(I) has the largest partition coefficient (9.64 mL·mg-1), indicating a strong interaction between Zr-DPHT and Ag(I). It is proven in the adsorption-desorption cycle experiments that Zr-DPHT has good regeneration performance. The research results indicate that Zr-DPHT can serve as a potential adsorbent for efficiently and selectively capturing Ag(I), providing a new direction for MOFs in the recycling field of precious metals.

Abstract
For environmental sustainability and to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs), drinking water treatment must be done at a reasonable cost with minimal environmental impact. Therefore, treating contaminated drinking water requires materials and approaches that are inexpensive, produced locally, and effortlessly. Hence, locally available materials and their derivatives, such as biochar (BC) and activated carbon (AC) were investigated thoroughly. Several researchers and their findings show that the application of locally accessible materials and their derivatives are capable of the adsorptive removal of organic and inorganic contaminants from drinking water. The application of locally available materials such as lignocellulosic materials/waste and its thermo-chemically derived products, including BC and AC were found effective in the treatment of contaminated drinking water. Thus, this review aims to thoroughly examine the latest developments in the use of locally accessible feedstocks for tailoring BC and AC, as well as their features and applications in the treatment of drinking water. We attempted to explain facts related to the potential mechanisms of BC and AC, such as complexation, co-precipitation, electrostatic interaction, and ion exchange to treat water, thereby achieving a risk-free remediation approach to polluted water. Additionally, this research offers guidance on creating efficient household treatment units based on the health risks associated with customized adsorbents and cost-benefit analyses. Lastly, this review work discusses the current obstacles for using locally accessible materials and their thermo-chemically produced by-products to purify drinking water, as well as the necessity for technological interventions.

THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 912:168931. [PMID: 38042197 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.168931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 11/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/04/2023]
Abstract
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic pollutants that are bioaccumulative, toxic, and persistent. One long-term source for PFAS release is PFAS-contaminated soil. Addition of activated carbon (AC) to soil has shown the potential to immobilize PFAS and reduce PFAS bioavailability, but PFAS-loaded spent AC remaining in the treated soil could lead to remobilization. Here we report a novel approach to address this challenge. By applying magnetic activated carbon (MAC) to remediate PFAS-impacted soil, the PFAS-loaded MAC can be retrieved from the treated soil and sorbed PFAS in the spent MAC can be destroyed using hydrothermal alkaline treatment (HALT). Effective MAC recovery was observed when water/soil ratios (w/w) were either <0.07 or > 1. Soil organic content and pH affected PFAS adsorption by the MAC added to soil. After three months of incubation with MAC, high PFAS removals [PFOS (87.6 %), PFOA (83.8 %), and 6:2 FTSA (81.5 %)] were observed for acidic environmental sandy soils with low organic content. In contrast, PFAS removal by MAC was poor for garden soils with high organic matter content. MAC was also used to remediate aqueous film-forming foam (AFFF)-impacted and PFAS-contaminated aged soils with varying PFAS removal performance. HALT technology was able to destroy and defluorinate PFAS adsorbed to the spent MAC. Additionally, the HALT-treated MAC retained its magnetic properties and PFOS sorption capacity, suggesting the potential reusability of HALT-treated MAC. Considering the low energy footprint of HALT compared to conventional PFAS thermal destruction techniques, the combination of MAC and HALT could be a promising treatment train for PFAS-contaminated soils.

Abstract
There is a growing need to develop new strategies for rare earth element (REE) recovery from secondary resources. Herein, a novel approach to utilize biogenic silica (from rice husk) and metakaolin was employed to fabricate magnetic geopolymer (MGP) by incorporating metallic iron. The fabricated MGP adsorbent material was used to uptake Ce3+, La3+, and Nd3+ from synthetic solutions and real phosphogypsum leachate in batch and column modes. The MGP offers a negatively charged surface at pH above 2.7, and the uptake of REEs rises from pH 3 to 6. The kinetic study validated that the kinetics was much faster for Nd3+, followed by La3+ and Ce3+. A thermodynamic investigation validated the exothermic nature of the adsorption process for all selected REEs. The desorption experiment using 2 mol L-1 H2SO4 as the eluent demonstrated approximately 100% desorption of REEs from the adsorbent. After six adsorption-desorption cycles, the MGP maintained a high adsorption performance up to cycle five before suffering a significant decrease in performance in cycle six. The effectiveness of MGP was also assessed for its applicability in recovering numerous REEs (La3+, Ce3+, Pr3+, Sm3+, and Nd3+) from real leachate from phosphogypsum wastes, and the highest recovery was achieved for Nd3+ (95.03%) followed by Ce3+ (86.33%). The operation was also feasible in the column presenting suitable values of the length of the mass transfer zone. The findings of this investigation indicate that MGP adsorbent prepared via a simple route has the potential for the recovery of REEs from synthetic and real samples in both batch and continuous operations modes.

Abstract
There is a significant concern about the accessibility of uncontaminated and safe drinking water, a fundamental necessity for human beings. This concern is attributed to the toxic micropollutants from several emission sources, including industrial toxins, agricultural runoff, wastewater discharges, sewer overflows, landfills, algal blooms and microbiota. Emerging micropollutants (EMs) encompass a broad spectrum of compounds, including pharmaceutically active chemicals, personal care products, pesticides, industrial chemicals, steroid hormones, toxic nanomaterials, microplastics, heavy metals, and microorganisms. The pervasive and enduring nature of EMs has resulted in a detrimental impact on global urban water systems. Of late, these contaminants are receiving more attention due to their inherent potential to generate environmental toxicity and adverse health effects on humans and aquatic life. Although little progress has been made in discovering removal methodologies for EMs, a basic categorization procedure is required to identify and restrict the EMs to tackle the problem of these emerging contaminants. The present review paper provides a crude classification of EMs and their associated negative impact on aquatic life. Furthermore, it delves into various nanotechnology-based approaches as effective solutions to address the challenge of removing EMs from water, thereby ensuring potable drinking water. To conclude, this review paper addresses the challenges associated with the commercialization of nanomaterial, such as toxicity, high cost, inadequate government policies, and incompatibility with the present water purification system and recommends crucial directions for further research that should be pursued.

Abstract
Adsorption of toxic compounds from water using zeolites and magnetite was developed due to the various advantages of their applicability. In the last twenty years, the use of zeolite-based compositions in the form of zeolite/inorganic or zeolite/polymer and magnetite has been accelerated for the adsorption of emergent compounds from water sources. The main adsorption mechanisms using zeolite and magnetite nanomaterials are high surface adsorption, ion exchange capacity and electrostatic interaction. This paper shows the capacity of Fe3O4 and ZSM-5 nanomaterials of adsorbing the emerging pollutant acetaminophen (paracetamol) during the treatment of wastewater. The efficiencies of the Fe3O4 and ZSM-5 in the wastewater process were systematically investigated using adsorption kinetics. During the study, the concentration of acetaminophen in the wastewater was varied from 50 to 280 mg/L, and the maximum Fe3O4 adsorption capacity increased from 25.3 to 68.9 mg/g. The adsorption capacity of each studied material was performed for three pH values (4, 6, 8) of the wastewater. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were used to characterize acetaminophen adsorption on Fe3O4 and ZSM-5 materials. The highest efficiencies in the treatment of wastewater were obtained at a pH value of 6. Fe3O4 nanomaterial presented a higher removal efficiency (84.6%) compared to ZSM-5 nanomaterial (75.4%). The results of the experiments show that both materials have a potential to be used as an effective adsorbents for the removal of acetaminophen from wastewater.

Abstract
Researchers have recently focused their attention on emerging contaminants (ECs) in wastewater because they pose serious health and environmental risks. Because ECs are persistent in the environment and have the ability to disrupt the physiology of target receptors, they have been labeled as contaminants of recent environmental concern. For removing various ECs, a variety of treatment technologies have been developed, including biological, chemical, and physical methods. However, no single technology can currently effectively remove ECs, whereas hybrid systems have consistently proven to be more effective. Furthermore, the majority of existing technologies are energy and resource intensive, as well as expensive to maintain and operate. Furthermore, the majority of advanced treatment technologies that have been proposed have yet to be evaluated for large-scale feasibility. Some ECs, particularly pharmaceuticals and pesticides, were found to be significantly removed using a hybrid technique that included ozone/UV and granular activated carbon (GAC). Besides, the removal of effluent parameters (TDS, COD, TOC) was enhanced through the GAC surface oxidization as a catalyst with NaOH before the process and by ozone within the procedure as well.

Abstract
Herein, a highly porous bimetal-organic framework (bi-MOF) based on cobalt and nickel was successfully in situ grown on organoclay (OC) clusters by solvothermal method. Accordingly, the hierarchical porous CoNi-MOF/OC composite with a superior specific surface area of 2046 m2/g and a large pore volume of 0.763 cm3/g was obtained, which facilitated the adsorption of organic dyes. A morphological study using scanning electron microscopy indicated the formation of uniform bi-MOF crystals on the OC plates. Furthermore, the single- and multi-dye adsorption assays were implemented to precisely evaluate the adsorption capacity and selectivity of CoNi-MOF/OC composite to anionic and cationic dyes. The results revealed a high adsorption capacity of 58.61 mg/g at an adsorbent content of 15 mg, initial dye concentration of 20 ppm, and contact time of 25 min for MB, which is superior to several existing clay-based adsorbents. The adsorption kinetics study showed that the adsorption of cationic and anionic dyes onto the CoNi-MOF/OC composite followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Interestingly, the regeneration study showed appropriate reusability and stability of the CoNi-MOF/OC composite for the removal of organic dyes with an almost unchanged structure after four regeneration cycles. The results of this study provide new insights for the rational design and fabrication of next-generation clay-based adsorbent by combining the synergistic advantages of bi-MOF with superior specific surface area and pore volume with organoclay composition and structure.

Abstract
The anti-inflammatory drug ibuprofen is considered to be an emerging contaminant because of its presence in different environments (from water bodies to soils) at concentrations with adverse effects on aquatic organisms due to cytotoxic and genotoxic damage, high oxidative cell stress, and detrimental effects on growth, reproduction, and behavior. Because of its high human consumption rate and low environmental degradation rate, ibuprofen represents an emerging environmental problem. Ibuprofen enters the environment from different sources and accumulates in natural environmental matrices. The problem of drugs, particularly ibuprofen, as contaminants is complicated because few strategies consider them or apply successful technologies to remove them in a controlled and efficient manner. In several countries, ibuprofen's entry into the environment is an unattended contamination problem. It is a concern for our environmental health system that requires more attention. Due to its physicochemical characteristics, ibuprofen degradation is difficult in the environment or by microorganisms. There are experimental studies that are currently focused on the problem of drugs as potential environmental contaminants. However, these studies are insufficient to address this ecological issue worldwide. This review focuses on deepening and updating the information concerning ibuprofen as a potential emerging environmental contaminant and the potential for using bacteria for its biodegradation as an alternative technology.

Abstract
Cellulose fiber rejects from industrial-scale recycling of waste papers were dried and de-ashed using a combined cyclone-drying and sieving process. The upgraded fiber reject was used as a component of substrates for the cultivation of Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus eryngii mushrooms. Acetic acid (AA) and acid whey (AW) were used to adjust the pH of fiber reject-based substrates. Spent substrate (SMS) was used for the production of activated biochar using H3PO4 and KOH as activating agents and pyrolysis temperatures of 500, 600, and 700 °C. The effectiveness of the biochars in removing pollutants from water was determined using acetaminophen and amoxicillin. By using a feeding rate of 250 kg/h and a drying air temperature of 70 °C, the moisture content of the raw fiber rejects (57.8 wt %) was reduced to 5.4 wt %, and the ash content (39.2 wt %) was reduced to 21.5 wt %. Substrates with 60 and 80 wt % de-ashed cellulose fiber were colonized faster than a birch wood-based control substrate. The adjustment of the pH of these two substrates to approximately 6.5 by using AA led to longer colonization times but biological efficiencies (BEs) that were higher or comparable to that of the control substrate. The contents of ash, crude fiber, crude fat, and crude protein of fruit bodies grown on fiber reject-based substrates were comparable to that of those grown on control substrates, and the contents of toxic heavy metals, that is, As, Pb, Cd, and Hg, were well below the up-limit values for food products set in EC regulations. Activated biochar produced from fiber reject-based SMS at a temperature of 700 °C resulted in a surface area (BET) of 396 m2/g (H3PO4-activated biochar) and 199 m2/g (KOH-activated biochar). For both activated biochars, the kinetics of adsorption of acetaminophen and amoxicillin were better described using the general order model. The isotherms of adsorption were better described by the Freundlich model (H3PO4-activated biochar) and the Langmuir model (KOH-activated biochar).

Abstract
Globally, ibuprofen is the third most consumed drug and its presence in the environment is a concern because little is known about its adverse effects on humans and aquatic life. Environmentalists have made monitoring and the detection of ibuprofen in biological and environmental matrices a priority. For the detection and monitoring of ibuprofen, sensors and biosensors have provided rapid analysis time, sensitivity, high-throughput screening, and real-time analysis. Researchers are increasingly seeking eco-friendly technology, and this has led to an interest in developing biodegradable, bioavailable, and non-toxic sensors, or biosensors. The integration of polymers into sensor systems has proven to significantly improve sensitivity, selectivity, and stability and minimize sample preparation using bioavailable and biodegradable polymers. This review provides a general overview of perspectives and trends of polymer-based sensors and biosensors for the detection of ibuprofen compared to non-polymer-based sensors.

Abstract
A novel core-shell nanomaterial, ZnO@SiO2, based on rice husk for antibiotic and bacteria removal, was successfully fabricated. The ZnO@SiO2 nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method, diffuse reflectance ultraviolet-vis (DR-UV-vis) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, and ζ-potential measurements. β-Lactam antibiotic amoxicillin (AMX) was removed using ZnO@SiO2 nanoparticles with an efficiency greater than 90%, while Escherichia coli removal was higher than 91%. The optimum effective conditions for AMX removal using ZnO@SiO2, including solution pH, adsorption time, and ZnO@SiO2 dosage, were 8, 90 min, and 25 mg/mL, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity reached 52.1 mg/g, much higher than those for other adsorbents. Adsorption isotherms of AMX on ZnO@SiO2 were more in accordance with the Freundlich model than the Langmuir model. The electrostatic attraction between negative species of AMX and the positively charged ZnO@SiO2 surface induced adsorption, while the removal of E. coli was governed by both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. Our study demonstrates that ZnO@SiO2 based on rice husk is a useful core-shell nanomaterial for antibiotic and bacteria removal from water.

Abstract
This review discusses the fundamental principles and mechanism of antibiotic removal from water of some commonly applied treatment techniques including chlorination, ozonation, UV-irradiation, Fenton processes, photocatalysis, electrochemical-oxidation, plasma, biochar, anaerobicdigestion, activated carbon and nanomaterials. Some experimental shortfalls identified by researchers such as certain characteristics of degradation agent applied and the strategies explored to override the identified limitations are briefly discussed. Depending on interactions of a range of factors including the type of antibiotic compound, operational parameters applied such as pH, temperature and treatment time, among other factors, all reviewed techniques can eliminate or reduce the levels of antibiotic compounds in water to varying extents. Some of the reviewed techniques such as anaerobic digestion generally require longer treatment times (up to 360, 193 and 170 days, according to some studies), while others such as photocatalysis achieved degradation within short contact time (within a minimum of 30, but up to 60, 240, 300 and 1880 minutes, in some cases). For some treatment techniques such as ozonation and Fenton, it is apparent that subjecting compounds to longer treatment times may improve elimination efficiency, whereas for some other techniques such as nanotechnology, application of longer treatment time generally meant comparatively minimal elimination efficiency. Based on the findings of experimental studies summarized, it is apparent that operational parameters such as pH and treatment time, while critical, do not exert sole or primary influence on the elimination percentage(s) achieved. Elimination efficiency achieved rather seems to be due more to the force of a combination of several factors.

Abstract
Fluoroquinolones are one of most commonly used antibiotics for preventing and treating bacterial infections and their unsatisfactory removal by conventional wastewater treatment technology have aroused widespread attention. A novel adsorbent of KMSBC was the first time synthesized and tested to adsorb three typical fluoroquinolone antibiotics of CIP, NOR and OFL from water. The characterization analysis showed that KMSBC possessed the superior porous structure, abundant functional groups and greater graphitic degree. Together with kinetics, isotherms, thermodynamics and critical factors (e.g., biochar dose, reaction time/temperature, fluoroquinolone antibiotics concentration, pH, co-existing ionic strength and HA concentration) analysis suggested that pore filling, π-π conjugation, H-bonding and electrostatic interaction were the key mechanisms for fluoroquinolone antibiotics adsorption by KMSBC. KMSBC exhibited the optimum adsorption performance at pH = 5 despite the adsorbates. The maximum adsorption capacity of KMSBC for CIP, NOR and OFL were 49.9, 55.7 and 47.4 mg/g at 25 °C, respectively. Also, KMSBC exhibited the good magnetic sensitivity and stability with the leaching concentrations of Fe were far below than environmental limit (GB5749-2006) at various pH (from 3 to 12), ionic strength and HA concentrations. Additionally, KMSBC performed a stable sustainable adsorption performance in recycles by NaOH regeneration. Thus, KMSBC had the potential to be a promising adsorbent for fluoroquinolone antibiotics removal with favorable adsorption capacity, environmental security and easy regeneration performance.

Abstract
This study presents an adsorbent material (activated carbon) used in the treatment of wastewater with the role of removing ibuprofen, acetaminophen, diclofenac and ketoprofen pollutants. The wastewater treatment efficiencies of the activated carbon were systematically investigated using adsorption kinetics. The parameters studied were: pH (4 and 6 values of pH), initial concentration of wastewater (1, 5, and 10 mg/L), contact time (10 min), adsorbent quantity (0.1, 0.5, and 1 g), and isotherm models (Langmuir and Freundlich). The highest wastewater treatment efficiency was obtained at the 6 pH value. The determination of four anti-inflammatory drugs, frequently monitored in wastewater, was performed by a simple and fast method using the HPLC-technique-type DAD (diode array detector). The method was linear when the concentration ranged between 0.5 and 20 m/L for all compounds. The equilibrium concentration was obtained after 8 min. The octanol/water coefficient influenced the removal efficiency of the four drugs by the adsorbent material (activated carbon). The dose of activated carbon (0.1 to 1 g) significantly influenced the efficiency of wastewater treatment, which increased considerably when the dose of the adsorbent material increased. Using 1 g of the adsorbent material for the treatment of wastewater containing 1 mg/L initial concentration of pollutant compounds, the efficiencies were 98% for acetaminophen, 92% for diclofenac, 88% for ketoprofen and 96% for ibuprofen.

Abstract
This review covers the preparation, characterization, and application of magnetic adsorbents obtained from carbon-based sources and their application in the adsorption of both inorganic and organic pollutants from water. Different preparation routes to obtain magnetic adsorbents from activated carbon, biochar, hydrochar, graphene, carbon dots, carbon nanotubes, and carbon nanocages, including the magnetic phase incorporated on the solid surface, are described and discussed. The performance of these adsorbents is analyzed for the removal of fluoride, arsenic, heavy metals, dyes, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and other emerging and relevant water pollutants. Properties of these adsorbents and the corresponding adsorption mechanisms have been included in this review. Overall, this type of magnetic adsorbents offers an alternative for facing the operational problems associated to adsorption process in water treatment. However, some gaps have been identified in the proper physicochemical characterization of these adsorbents, the development of green and low-cost preparation methods for their industrial production and commercialization, the regeneration and final disposal of spent adsorbents, and their application in the multicomponent adsorption of water pollutants.

Abstract
Serious environmental deterioration caused by synthetic waste plastics, and the pollution of freshwater resources are the most alarming and marked challenges of the 21st century. Therefore, immense scientific efforts are being made towards the management of waste plastics and treatment of polluted water. The current study reports on the utilization of waste polyethylene terephthalate (wPET) and waste polystyrene (wPS) for fabrication of activated carbon (AC) and its application for the removal of hazardous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) pollutants from water. AC was prepared from wPET and wPS by carbonization under a N2 atmosphere followed by chemical activation with 1 M KOH and 1 M HCl. The AC was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, surface area analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Adsorption of PAHs from aqueous solutions through AC was examined by batch adsorption tests. The optimum parameters for maximum adsorption of PAHs were found to be: initial PAHs concentration 40 ppm, 2 h contact time, pH 3, 5, and 7, 50 °C temperature and adsorbent dose of 0.8 g. Kinetic and isotherm models were applied to evaluate the adsorbent capacity for PAHs adsorption. The kinetic study shows that the adsorption of these PAHs onto AC follows pseudo-second-order kinetics. The experimental results demonstrated that the Langmuir isotherm model best fitted the data. The thermodynamic factors calculated such as entropy change (ΔS°), enthalpy change (ΔS°) and free energy change (ΔG°) show that the adsorption process is non-spontaneous and endothermic in nature. Results were also compared with the efficiencies of some commercial adsorbents used in practice. This examination revealed that the novel plastic-derived AC possesses a great potential for elimination and recovery of PAH elimination from industrial wastewater.

Abstract
A noticeable interest and steady rise in research studies reporting the design and assessment of smart adsorbents for sequestering aqueous metal ions and xenobiotics has occurred in the last decade. This motivates compiling and reviewing the characteristics, potentials, and performances of this new adsorbent generation's metal ion and xenobiotics sequestration. Herein, stimuli-responsive adsorbents that respond to its media (as internal triggers; e.g., pH and temperature) or external triggers (e.g., magnetic field and light) are highlighted. Readers are then introduced to selective adsorbents that selectively capture materials of interest. This is followed by a discussion of self-healing and self-cleaning adsorbents. Finally, the review ends with research gaps in material designs.

Abstract
Wastewater is water that has already been contaminated by domestic, industrial and commercial activity that needs to be treated before it could be discharged into some other water bodies to avoid even more groundwater contamination supplies. It consists of various contaminants like heavy metals, organic pollutants, inorganic pollutants and Emerging contaminants. Research has been doing on all types of contaminates more than a decade, but this emerging contaminants is the contaminants which arises mostly from pharmaceuticals, personal care products, hormones and fertilizer industries. The majority of emerging contaminants did not have standardized guidelines, but may have adverse effects on human and marine organisms, even at smaller concentrations. Typically, extremely low doses of emerging contaminants are found in the marine environment and cause a potential risk to the aquatic animals living there. When contaminants emerge in the marine world, they are potentially toxic and pose many risks to the health of both man and livestock. The aim of this article is to review the Emerging contaminate sources, detection methods and treatment methods. The purpose of this study is to consider the adsorption as a beneficial treatment of emerging contaminants also advanced and cost effective emerging contaminates treatment methods.

Abstract
This work aims to synthesize a core-shell material of CeO2@SiO2 based on rice husk as a novel hybridized adsorbent for antibiotic removal. The phase structures of CeO2@SiO2 and CeO2 nanoparticles that were fabricated by a simple procedure were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, while their interfacial characterizations were performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method, and ζ-potential measurements. The removal efficiency of the antibiotic amoxicillin (AMX) using CeO2@SiO2 nanoparticles was much greater than that using SiO2 and CeO2 materials in solutions of different pH values. The optimum conditions for AMX removal using CeO2@SiO2 including contact time and adsorbent dosage were 120 min and 5 mg/mL, respectively. The maximum AMX removal using CeO2@SiO2 reached 100% and the adsorption capacity was 12.5 mg/g. Adsorption isotherms of AMX onto CeO2@SiO2 were fitted by Langmuir, Freundlich, and two-step adsorption models, while the adsorption kinetics of AMX achieved a better fit by the pseudo-second-order model than the pseudo-first-order model. The electrostatic and nonelectrostatic interactions between the zwitterionic form of AMX and the positively charged CeO2@SiO2 surface were controlled by adsorption. The effects of different organics such as humic acid, ionic surfactants, and pharmaceutical substances on AMX removal using CeO2@SiO2 were also thoroughly investigated. The high AMX removal efficiencies of about 75% after four regenerations and about 70% from an actual water sample demonstrate that CeO2@SiO2-based rice husk is a hybrid nanomaterial for antibiotic removal from water environments.

Evaluation of CNT-COOH/MnO 2/Fe 3O 4 nanocomposite for ibuprofen and paracetamol removal from aqueous solutions. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 403:123528.

Abstract
The nanocomposite CNT-COOH/MnO2/Fe3O4 was synthesized and characterized by different techniques, namely X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, magnetic measurement, point of zero charge and hydrophobicity index. Analyzes revealed the groups -COOH, MnO2 and Fe3O4 attached to the carbon nanotubes, the acidic character of the obtained nanocomposite and its stability. The surface area for the obtained nanocomposite was 114.2 m2 g-1. The prepared nanocomposite was used for adsorption of ibuprofen and paracetamol from aqueous solution. Isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were determined for predicting the ibuprofen and paracetamol adsorption on synthetized nanocomposite. The equilibrium data obtained from adsorption were well represented by Langmuir model and kinetics data were well fitted by the pseudo-second order model. The maximum adsorption capacity obtained for ibuprofen and paracetamol was 103.093 mg g-1, 80.645 mg g-1 respectively. The thermodynamic analysis showed that the adsorption process for both pollutants was spontaneous and endothermic. The synthetized nanocomposite can be a suitable new absorbent for ibuprofen and paracetamol removal from aqueous solutions due to its high adsorbing capacity and it can be separated by an external magnetic field.

Abstract
Here, inspired by the poisoning process of heavy metal in human body that the accidental ingested heavy metal can anchor to the functional groups of DNA/protein/enzyme to exert their toxicities during the rapid blood circulation, we developed the adsorbent that enveloped Etched UiO-66 with abundant functional groups into chitosan (CTS) aerogel to capture Pb(II) and Cd(II) in aqueous and apple juice. SEM, XRD and FTIR spectra were used to characterize the Etched UiO-66/CTS aerogel. The results showed that Etched UiO-66/CTS aerogel has a three-dimensional porous structure, and -OH groups of CTS interact with Zr(IV) of Etched UiO-66 to form the stable UiO-66/CTS aerogel. Benefiting from the intrinsic properties of porous and abundant functional groups, Etched UiO-66/CTS aerogel exhibits satisfactory adsorption capacities of 654.9 mg g-1 for Pb(II) and 343.9 mg g-1 for Cd(II) at 45 °C. Moreover, the aerogel shows excellent removal efficiencies of 98.21% for Pb(II) and 98.70% for Cd(II) with initial concentration of 1.0 mg L-1 in apple juice with little effect on the quality of apple juice. This strategy of mimetic heavy metal ions' poisoning behavior opens up a new avenue for the removal of heavy metal ions in complex matrices.

Abstract
A column granular electrode loaded with metallic cobalt was prepared using powder activated carbon (namely Co/AC) and used in a continuous electrochemical reactor to degrade humic acid (HA). The results of XRD indicated that the form of catalyst prepared at 600 °C for 4 h mainly consisted of Co0, whereas it consisted of CoO when prepared at 450-500 °C for 4 h. The Co0 possessed better catalytic effects in the degradation of HA than CoO. When C0 of HA was 200 mg L-1, the C/C0 approached 0.06-0.12 under 0.1 A, pH of 7.0, 0.01 M Na2SO4, and 20 min of hydraulic retention time (HRT). The current, HRT, initial pH, electrolyte type and concentration influenced the degradation of HA. The ESR signals indicated that both H∗ and OH were catalytically generated by Co/AC electrode. Compared to AC electrodes, the Co/AC electrodes showed a faster reaction Tafel slope (68 mV dec-1) and larger electrochemical double-layer capacitance (Cdl = 1.93 mF cm-2). The degradation and removal of HA was achieved by both the electro-oxidation and electro-reduction in the Co/AC electrode system.

Abstract
The present research describes the synthesis of new nanomagnetic activated carbon material with high magnetization, and high surface area prepared in a single pyrolysis step that is used for the carbonization, activation, and magnetization of the produced material. The pyrolysis step of tucumã seed was carried out in a conventional tubular oven at 600 °C under N2-flow. It was prepared three magnetic carbons MT-1.5, MT-2.0, MT-2.5, that corresponds to the proportion of biomass: ZnCl2 always 1:1 and varying the proportion of NiCl2 of 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5, respectively. These magnetic nanocomposites were characterized by Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM), X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, hydrophobic/hydrophilic balance, CHN/O elemental analysis, modified Boehm titration, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms; and pHpzc. All the materials obtained presented Ni particles with an average crystallite size of less than 33 nm. The MT-2.0 was employed for the removal of nicotinamide and propranolol from aqueous solutions. Based on Liu isotherm, the Qmax was 199.3 and 335.4 mg g-1 for nicotinamide and propranolol, respectively. MT-2.0 was used to treat simulated pharmaceutical industry effluents attaining removal of all organic compounds attaining up to 99.1 % of removal.

Abstract
The minimum set of parameters that can be used to assess the adsorption capacity of activated carbon (AC) produced from termite bio-waste was determined. Three types of AC were prepared: AC600 at 600 °C, MAC600 at the same temperature and impregnated with FeCl3, and AC800 at 800 °C. The influence of the solution pH on the adsorption, adsorption kinetics, isotherms and thermodynamic parameters was considered to characterize the amoxicillin (AMX) adsorption process. The AC materials had surface areas (m2 g-1) of approximately 248.8 for AC600, 501.6 for AC800 and 269.5 for MAC600, with point of zero charge (pHPZC) values of 8.3, 7.5 and 1.7, respectively. A time period of 30 min was chosen for the adsorption kinetics, which was best represented by the pseudo-first-order model for AC600, the intraparticle diffusion model for AC800 and the pseudo-second-order model for MAC600. Regarding the isotherms, a maximum adsorption of 23.4 mg g-1 was found for AC800. In general, the thermodynamic parameters demonstrated a non-spontaneous process. It seems that the medium conditions, the adsorbate and adsorbent characteristics, and the Gibbs free energy are the most important parameters to be considered in a preliminary assessment of the adsorption efficiency of specific adsorbent/adsorbate pairs.

Combination of solar photo-Fenton and adsorption process for removal of the anticancer drug Flutamide and its transformation products from hospital wastewater. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 396:122699. [PMID: 32344362 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.122699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2020] [Revised: 04/03/2020] [Accepted: 04/09/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
The anti-cancer drug Flutamide (FLUT) is widely used and is of great environmental concern. The solar photo-Fenton (SPF) process can be an effective treatment for the removal of this type of micropollutant. The use of a single addition of 5 mg L-1 of Fe2+ and 50 mg L-1 of H2O2 achieved 20% primary degradation and only 3.05% mineralization. By using three additions of 5 mg L-1 Fe2+, with an initial H2O2 concentration of 150 mg L-1, 58% primary degradation was achieved, together with 12.07% mineralization. Consequently, thirteen transformation products (TPs) were formed. The SPF process was further combined with adsorption onto avocado seed activated carbon (ASAC) as an environmentally friendly approach for the removal of remained FLUT and the TPs. Doehlert design was used to assess the behavior of 13 TPs by optimizing the contact time and the adsorbent mass load. The optimal conditions for removal of FLUT and the TPs were 14 mg of ASAC and a contact time of 40 min. Remained FLUT and the TPs were totally removed using the adsorption process. The mechanisms of adsorption of FLUT and the TPs were strongly influenced by their polarity and π-π interactions of the TPs onto ASAC.

Abstract
Antibiotics are known as emergent pollutants because of their toxicological properties. Due to continuous discharge and persistence in the aquatic environment, antibiotics are detected almost in every environmental matrix. Therefore antibiotics that are polluting the aquatic environment have gained significant research interest for their removal. Several techniques have been used to remove pollutants, but appropriate technology is still to be found. This review addresses the use of modified and cheap materials for antibiotic removal from the environment.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 393:122487.

Abstract
Three nanocomposites of carbon and MnOx (C-Mns) were prepared via mechanochemical reaction of CaC2 with excessive MnO2 in a planetary ball mill. Their structure and composition were analyzed by XPS, Raman, FT-IR, XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption, SEM and TEM, respectively, and their adsorption performance for heavy metal ions was studied. In addition, a series of nanocomposites of carbon and transition metal oxides (C-MOx) were prepared by ball milling CaC2 with excessive TiO2, V2O5, Fe2O3, CuO, MoO3, Co2O3, and CrO3, respectively, and their adsorptivity was evaluated. C-Mn1 is a micro-mesoporous sorbent with rich MnOx, alkynyl and oxygenated groups, and moderate specific area (∼180 m2 g-1), showing excellent Pb2+ adsorption with its saturated adsorptivity being 404.4 mg-Pb g-1. Further, it is also effective for other heavy metals (Hg2+, Cd2+, Cr3+, Zn2+ and Cu2+). Some C-MOx show even better adsorptivity for Pb2+ and Hg2+, being superior to most of the advanced carbon-based sorbents. We reported herein a facile method for preparing a new kind of C-MOx nanocomposites for the efficient adsorption of heavy metal ions from wastewater.

Abstract
Pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) are the one of sub-class under emerging organic contaminants (EOCs). Ibuprofen is the world's third most consumable drug. This drug enters into our water system through human pharmaceutical use. It attracts the attention of environmentalist on the basis of risk associated, presence and transformation in the environment. The detection and removal are the two key area where we need to focus. The concentration of such compounds in waterbodies detected through conventional and also by the advanced methods. This review we described the available technologies including chemical, physical and biological methods, etc used the for removal of Ibuprofen. The pure culture based method, mixed culture approach and activated sludge culture approach focused and pathway of degradation of ibuprofen was deciphered by using the various methods of structure determination. The various degradation methods used for Ibuprofen are discussed. The advanced methods coupled with physical, chemical, biological, chemical methods like ozonolysis, oxidation and adsorption, nanotechnology based methods, nanocatalysis and use of nonosensors to detect the presence of small amount in waterbodies can enhance the future degradation of this drug. It is necessary to develop the new detection methods to enhance the detection of such pollutants. With the developments in new detection methods based on GC-MS//MS, HPLC, LC/MS and nanotechnology based sensors makes easier detection of these compounds which can detect even very minute amount with great sensitivity and in less time. Also, the isolation and characterization of more potent microbial strains and nano-photocatalysis will significantly increase the future degradation of such harmful compounds from the environment.

Abstract
The adsorption of pharmaceutical substances using carbonaceous materials, such as activated carbon (AC), biochar (BC) and hydrochar (HC), has received substantial attention by researchers working on water treatment, due to the simplicity, low-cost and high performance of this process. In order to widen the potentiality of these carbonaceous materials and to overcome some of their limitations, particularly the inefficient separation of powdered formulations from treated water, the incorporation of magnetic nanoparticles has been explored. The recovery of magnetic carbon materials (MCM) from the treated water can be attained by applying an external magnetic field, avoiding inefficient and costly filtration and centrifugation processes, typically applied in the case of non-magnetic carbonaceous adsorbents. In the last ten years, some work has been devoted to the preparation of MCM specifically from AC (MCACM), biochar (MCBCM) and hydrochar (MCHCM). This review aims to present the different aspects of using MCM in water treatment, namely in the removal of pharmaceutical compounds. The synthesis routes used to produce MCM, their physical, morphologic and chemical features, and their application in the removal of these micro-organic contaminants from water will be assessed. The advantages and disadvantages of using MCM in water treatment, and their comparative performance with the carbonaceous non-magnetic precursors will be also discussed in this review.
