Unveiling the Aftermath: Exploring Residue Profiles of Insecticides, Herbicides, and Fungicides in Rice Straw, Soils, and Air Post-Mixed Pesticide-Contaminated Biomass Burning. TOXICS 2024; 12:86. [PMID: 38251041 PMCID: PMC10819870 DOI: 10.3390/toxics12010086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
This study delved into the impact of open biomass burning on the distribution of pesticide and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) residues across soil, rice straw, total suspended particulates (TSP), particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter ≤ 10 µm (PM10), and aerosols. A combination of herbicides atrazine (ATZ) and diuron (DIU), fungicide carbendazim (CBD), and insecticide chlorpyriphos (CPF) was applied to biomass before burning. Post-burning, the primary soil pesticide shifted from propyzamide (67.6%) to chlorpyriphos (94.8%). Raw straw biomass retained residues from all pesticide groups, with chlorpyriphos notably dominating (79.7%). Ash residue analysis unveiled significant alterations, with elevated concentrations of chlorpyriphos and terbuthylazine, alongside the emergence of atrazine-desethyl and triadimenol. Pre-burning TSP analysis identified 15 pesticides, with linuron as the primary compound (51.8%). Post-burning, all 21 pesticides were detected, showing significant increases in metobromuron, atrazine-desethyl, and cyanazine concentrations. PM10 composition mirrored TSP but exhibited additional compounds and heightened concentrations, particularly for atrazine, linuron, and cyanazine. Aerosol analysis post-burning indicated a substantial 39.2-fold increase in atrazine concentration, accompanied by the presence of sebuthylazine, formothion, and propyzamide. Carcinogenic PAHs exhibited noteworthy post-burning increases, contributing around 90.1 and 86.9% of all detected PAHs in TSP and PM10, respectively. These insights advance understanding of pesticide dynamics in burning processes, crucial for implementing sustainable agricultural practices and safeguarding environmental and human health.

Abstract
Microwave-assisted catalytic oxidation technology has become an effective technology for rapid removal of organic pollutants in wastewater. In this research, the removal of methyl orange (MO) from aqueous solution by CuFe2O4 loaded on carbon nanotubes (CuFe2O4/CNTs) under microwave irradiation was studied. The effects of different loadings (1:2, 1:4, 1:8) of CuFe2O4 on the dielectric loss, magnetic loss, dielectric loss factor, magnetic loss factor, and reflection loss of composite materials were studied. The results showed that the microwave adsorption performance was improved by loading CuFe2O4 on CNTs. These different composites were further characterized by SEM, FTIR, and XRD techniques. In addition, this article also studied the effects of different microwave irradiation time, pH, and ionic factors on the degradation of MO. In particular, the mechanism of MO degradation by composite materials under different pH conditions was also studied in detail. The results showed that the removal rate reaches 97% with 5 min under the best conditions, and the composite material had good anti-interference performance. This study may provide a new option to degrade organic dye in wastewater treating.

Abstract
There is an obvious gap between efforts dedicated to the control of chemicophysical and morphological properties of catalyst active phases and the attention paid to the search of new materials to be employed as functional carriers in the upgrading of heterogeneous catalysts. Economic constraints and common habits in preparing heterogeneous catalysts have narrowed the selection of active-phase carriers to a handful of materials: oxide-based ceramics (e.g. Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, and aluminosilicates-zeolites) and carbon. However, these carriers occasionally face chemicophysical constraints that limit their application in catalysis. For instance, oxides are easily corroded by acids or bases, and carbon is not resistant to oxidation. Therefore, these carriers cannot be recycled. Moreover, the poor thermal conductivity of metal oxide carriers often translates into permanent alterations of the catalyst active sites (i.e. metal active-phase sintering) that compromise the catalyst performance and its lifetime on run. Therefore, the development of new carriers for the design and synthesis of advanced functional catalytic materials and processes is an urgent priority for the heterogeneous catalysis of the future. Silicon carbide (SiC) is a non-oxide semiconductor with unique chemicophysical properties that make it highly attractive in several branches of catalysis. Accordingly, the past decade has witnessed a large increase of reports dedicated to the design of SiC-based catalysts, also in light of a steadily growing portfolio of porous SiC materials covering a wide range of well-controlled pore structure and surface properties. This review article provides a comprehensive overview on the synthesis and use of macro/mesoporous SiC materials in catalysis, stressing their unique features for the design of efficient, cost-effective, and easy to scale-up heterogeneous catalysts, outlining their success where other and more classical oxide-based supports failed. All applications of SiC in catalysis will be reviewed from the perspective of a given chemical reaction, highlighting all improvements rising from the use of SiC in terms of activity, selectivity, and process sustainability. We feel that the experienced viewpoint of SiC-based catalyst producers and end users (these authors) and their critical presentation of a comprehensive overview on the applications of SiC in catalysis will help the readership to create its own opinion on the central role of SiC for the future of heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
In this work, perovskite intercalated montmorillonite (MMT) composite catalyst loaded by different mass fraction iron oxide, xFe2O3/LaCu0.5Co0.5O3-MMT0.2 (x was the mass fraction of Fe2O3 and x = 0.02, 0.04, 0.06), were prepared by impregnation method, and their catalytic activity were evaluated by microwave induced catalytic degradation of bisphenol A (BPA). Fe2O3 had a certain absorption effect on microwave, which could enhance the absorption property of composite material, improve the catalytic activity of catalyst. XRD, SEM, XPS and vector network analysis were used to analysis the structure, morphology, surface element composition and microwave absorption performance of the composite catalyst. The results indicated that the sample had uniform structure, a larger specific surface, a higher ratio of Oads/Olat and excellent microwave absorption performance. The effects of microwave power, pH value and H2O2 dosage on the catalytic degradation performance were studied, and 0.04Fe2O3/LCCOM0.2 had the most obvious effect on the removal of BPA. The possible reaction mechanisms were discussed by characterization and experimental results of free radical capture. The surface active sites of the catalyst could be excited by microwave to generate oxidative free radicals, which could degrade BPA through electron hole transport. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the operation parameters for the 0.04Fe2O3/LCCOM0.2-BPA microwave degradation system.

Stabilization treatment of arsenic-alkali residue (AAR): Effect of the coexisting soluble carbonate on arsenic stabilization. ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2020; 135:105406.

Abstract
Arsenic-alkali residue (AAR) from antimony smelting is highly hazardous due to its ready leachability of As, seeking for proper disposal such as stabilization treatment. However, As stabilization in AAR would be challenging due to the high content of coexisting soluble carbonate. This study conducted the stabilization treatments of AAR by ferrous sulfate and lime, respectively, and revealed the significant influence of coexisting carbonate. It was found that ferrous sulfate was more efficient than lime, which required only one-tenth of dosages of lime to reduce the As leaching concentration from 915 mg/L to a level below 2.5 mg/L to meet the Chinese regulatory limit. The combining qualitative and quantitative analyses based on XRD, SEM-EDS, and thermodynamic modeling suggested that the formation of insoluble arsenate minerals, ferrous arsenate or calcium arsenate, was the predominant mechanism for As stabilization in the two treatment systems, and their efficiency difference was primarily attributed to the coexisting carbonate, which had a slight effect on ferrous arsenate but severely obstructed calcium arsenate formation. Moreover, the examination of As leaching concentrations in 1-year-cured samples indicated that the long-term stability of ferrous sulfate treatment was far superior to that of lime treatment. This study provides ferrous salts as a promising and green scheme for stabilization treatment of AAR as well as other similar As-bearing solid wastes with coexisting soluble carbonate.

Abstract
Monitoring of groundwater is fundamentally important due to it has emerged as a major source of drinking water and also used for irrigation purposes in many places in the world. Arsenic contamination in surface water and groundwater resources is a major concern due to its presence at high concentration and associated adverse health effects. Thus, the remediation of As in water resources, alongside other chemical species including fluoride, lithium, vanadium aluminium and nitrate is necessary. We have designed a hybrid [polyethyleneimine (PEI)-supported Fe3+-attached poly-(HEMA-co-GMA)] column for the reduction of arsenic (III and V) and other groundwater chemicals from natural groundwater as a potential contribution to water resource management. Swelling behaviour and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed for the characterization of hybrid material. For the optimization of experimental conditions, the effects of pH and initial arsenic concentrations on adsorption were studied using arsenic solutions. Maximum adsorption capacity in equilibrium was 11.44 and 5.79 mg/g polymer for As(III) and As(V), respectively at pH 7. The reduction of metalloids and other subsurface chemicals were carried out with natural groundwater samples obtained from local sources. The mean concentrations of arsenic were recorded between 44.96 and 219.04 μg/L and of which 71.3-95.4 % (0.32-1.22 mg/g) were removed. The average removals were determined as F-1 50-86%, Li+ 43.2-99.7%, Al+3 83.8-91.4%, NO3- 48.4-72.2% and V 91.3-95.7. Chemical-loaded hybrid columns were regenerated successfully 15 times with only a loss of 5% in adsorption capacity by 0.01 M NaCl- treatment for potential adaptation into water industry. No pre-oxidation of As species was performed for the treatment of ground water samples prior to the hybrid column testing.

Abstract
The removal of methyl orange (MO) in a copper-loaded silicon carbide (Cu/SiC) system under microwave (MW) irradiation was studied. Cu/SiC was synthesized by employing an impregnation method and the effects of parameters such as reaction time, catalyst dosage, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) dosage, microwave power and pH on the rate of degradation of MO were also studied. The obtained results showed that almost complete degradation was obtained in the presence of Cu/SiC catalyst within 8 min of irradiation when 100 mL of MO solution (20 mg/L), 3 ml/L of H2O2, 2 g/L of catalyst dose, 600 W of MW power, and pH 7 were applied. The Cu-bearing catalyst with H2O2 formed a Fenton-like system and the rate of generation of hydroxyl radicals (·OH) was also accelerated by subjecting to MW. From the kinetic analysis, it is revealed that the degradation of MO using the MW-Cu/SiC-H2O2 system follows the pseudo-first-order.
