[PMID: 38763721 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2024.122183] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
Phosphorus is a critical factor in the control of eutrophication. We developed a three-dimensional porous, bimetallic-modified adsorbent La-Ca-CS/ATP to remove excess phosphate from water. Langmuir model showed that the theoretical adsorption capacity of La-Ca-CS/ATP was up to 123 mg P/g. The amount of La and Ca leached by La-Ca-CS/ATP was small, and the adsorption of 36.08 mg P/g was maintained during the five cycles of La-Ca-CS/ATP. The La-Ca-CS/ATP adsorption mechanism mainly involved surface precipitation, ligand exchange, electrostatic attraction, and inner-sphere complexation. Molecular dynamics demonstrated that La and Ca had complementary effects on binding sites and energy barriers within the range of 0.5-0.7 nm and 1.2-2 nm, enhancing the adsorption effect of La-Ca-CS/ATP. The life cycle assessment results showed that adding calcium could help reduce the environmental impact of lanthanum and chitosan. The production of La-Ca-CS/ATP adsorbed 73.88 P mg/g and emitted 24.73 kg CO2 eq, which was less than other adsorbents.

Mi FL, Chen WY, Chen ZR, Chang IW, Wu SJ. Sequential removal of phosphate and copper(II) ions using sustainable chitosan biosorbent. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131178.

Abstract
Although adsorbents are good candidates for removing phosphorus and heavy metals from wastewater, the use of biosorbents for the sequential treatment of phosphorus and copper has not yet been studied. Porous chitosan (CS)-based biosorbents (CGBs) were developed to adsorb phytic acid (PA), a major form of organic phosphate. This first adsorbate (PA) further served as an additional ligand (P-type ligand) for the CGBs (N-type ligand) to form a complex with the second adsorbate (copper). After the adsorption of PA (the first adsorbate), the spent CGBs were recycled and used as a new adsorbent to adsorb Cu(II) ions (the second adsorbate), which was expected to have a dual coordination effect through P, N-ligand complexation with copper. The interactions and complexation between CS, PA and Cu(II) ions on the PA-adsorbed CGBs (PACGBs) were investigated by performing FTIR, XPS, XRD, and SEM-EDS analyses. The PACGBs exhibited fast and enhanced adsorption of Cu(II) ions, owing to the synergistic effect of the amino groups of CS (the original ligand, N-type) and the phosphate groups of PA (an additional ligand, P-type) on the adsorption of Cu(II) ions. This is the first time that sequential removal of phosphorus and heavy metals by biosorbents has been performed using biosorbents.

Abstract
Many industrial effluents release cyanide, a well-known hazardous and bio-recalcitrant pollutant, and thus, the treatment of cyanide wastewater is a major challenge. In the current study, a CuFe2O4-SnO2-rGO nanocomposite was synthesized to remove cyanide from an aqueous system. The structural and morphological characterizations of the nanomaterials were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectra (EDX) analysis. The results revealed that almost 97.7% cyanide removal occurred using the nanocomposite at an initial concentration of 100 mg L-1 within 1 h. The experimental data were fitted to various adsorption models, among which the Langmuir model fitted the data very well, confirming the monolayer adsorption process. The kinetic investigation revealed that the cyanide adsorption process followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating a chemisorption process with a high cyanide adsorption capacity of 114 mg g-1. The result of the intraparticulate diffusion model fitting revealed a decreasing slope value (K) from stage 1 to stage 2, indicating that external mass transfer is the predominating step. Moreover, the CuFe2O4-SnO2-rGO nanocomposite shows excellent reusability.

Abstract
Since the electroplating industry is springing up, effective control of phosphate has attracted global concerns. In this study, a novel biosorbent (MIL-88@CS-HDG) was synthesized by loading a kind of Fe-based metal organic framework called MIL-88 into chitosan hydrogel beads and applied in deep treatment of phosphate removal in electroplating wastewater. The adsorption capacities of H2PO4- on MIL-88@CS-HDG could reach 1.1 mmol/g (corresponding to 34.1 mg P/g and 106.7 mg H2PO4-/g), which was 2.65% higher than that on single MOF powders and chitosan hydrogel beads. The H2PO4- adsorption was well described by the Freundlich isotherm model. Over 90% H2PO4- could be adsorbed at contact time of 3 h. It could keep high adsorption capacity in the pH range from 2 to 7, which had a wider pH range of application compared with pure MIL-88. Only NO3- and SO42- limited the adsorption with the reduction rate of 11.42% and 23.23%, proving it tolerated most common co-existing ions. More than 92% of phosphorus could be recovered using NaOH and NaNO3. Electrostatic attraction between Fe core and phosphorus in MIL-88@CS-HDG and ion exchange played the dominant role. The recovered MIL-88@CS-HDG remained stable and applicable in the treatment process of real electroplating wastewater even after six adsorption-regeneration cycles. Based on the removal properties and superb regenerability, MIL-88@CS-HDG is potentially applicable to practical production.

Abstract
Over the past decades, considerable efforts have been made to find useful solutions for phosphate pollution control. The state transition of nanomaterials from freely dispersed to encapsulated provides a realizable route for their application in phosphate elimination. The separation convenience offered by encapsulation has been widely recognized, however, the unique binding mode of nanostructures and phosphate in the confined space remains unclear, limiting its further development. Here, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) microspheres were used as hosts to deploy layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles. On this basis, we described an attempt to explore the adsorption behavior of LDH and phosphate in the microsphere space. Compared to their freely dispersed analogues, LDH particles exhibited higher structural stability, wider pH adaptability, and better phosphate selectivity when spatially confined in the CMC microsphere. Nevertheless, the kinetic process was severely inhibited by three orders of magnitude. Besides, the saturated phosphate adsorption capacity was also reduced to 74.6 % of the freely dispersed system. A combinative characterization revealed that the highly electronegative CMC host not only causes electrostatic repulsion to phosphate, but also extracts the electron density of the metal center of LDH, weakening its ability to act as a Lewis acid site for phosphate binding. Meanwhile, the microsphere encapsulation also hinders the ion exchange function of interlayer anions and phosphate. This study offers an objective insight into the reaction of LDH and phosphate in the confined microsphere space, which may contribute to the advanced design of encapsulation strategies for nanoparticles.

Abstract
In modern times, wastewater treatment is vital due to increased water contamination arising from pollutants such as nutrients, pathogens, heavy metals, and pharmaceutical residues. Polysaccharides (PSAs) are natural, renewable, and non-toxic biopolymers used in wastewater treatment in the field of gas separation, liquid filtration, adsorption processes, pervaporation, and proton exchange membranes. Since addition of nanoparticles to PSAs improves their sustainability and strength, nanocomposite PSAs has gained significant attention for wastewater treatment in the past decade. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of PSA-based nanocomposites used for efficient wastewater treatment, focusing on adsorption, photocatalysis, and membrane-based methods. It also discusses potential future applications, challenges, and opportunities in adsorption, filtration, and photocatalysis. Recently, PSAs have shown promise as adsorbents in biological-based systems, effectively removing heavy metals that could hinder microbial activity. Cellulose-mediated adsorbents have successfully removed various pollutants from wastewater, including heavy metals, dyes, oil, organic solvents, pesticides, and pharmaceutical residues. Thus, PSA nanocomposites would support biological processes in wastewater treatment plants. A major concern is the discharge of antibiotic wastes from pharmaceutical industries, posing significant environmental and health risks. PSA-mediated bio-adsorbents, like clay polymeric nanocomposite hydrogel beads, efficiently remove antibiotics from wastewater, ensuring water quality and ecosystem balance. The successful use of PSA-mediated bio-adsorbents in wastewater treatment depends on ongoing research to optimize their application and evaluate their potential environmental impacts. Implementing these eco-friendly adsorbents on a large scale holds great promise in significantly reducing water pollution, safeguarding ecosystems, and protecting human health.

Abstract
In order to mitigate the harmful effects of eutrophication in water bodies, the applications of lanthanum-modified materials for phosphate removal from wastewater have attracted much attention. Unlike conventional adsorbents, plant wastes usually have poor adsorption abilities and are difficult to be reused for desorption of phosphate due to their small pore sizes and ununiform loading of modified ions. In this paper, a composite adsorbent (LC-MM) was synthesized by hydrothermal treatment of waste traditional Chinese medical materials (MMs) with load of lanthanum carbonate and co-heating treatment with coal fly ash (CFA), which was applied to remove phosphate from water. The results showed that maximum adsorption capacity of LC-MM was 52 mg g-1, and the LC-MM showed appreciable adsorption capacity of phosphate for agricultural wastewater in the presence of complex interfering ions and for urban surface waters with low phosphate concentrations. Five adsorption-desorption cycles showed good reusability. The mechanism study showed that the La3+ ions were more uniformly distributed on the surface of the absorbents with the introduction of Fe3+, Al3+, Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions in CFA. The ligand exchange between phosphate and carbonate, the internal spherical complexation formed by lanthanum ion and phosphate, and surface chemical precipitation attachment are the main reasons why the adsorption capacity of LC-MM approached or even surpassed that of conventional lanthanum-modified adsorbents. In conclusions, this work proposed an effective method for the modification of plant materials.

Abstract
In this study, the sludge filter wastewater is confirmed to investigate the effects of adsorption-electrochemical mediated precipitation (EMP) driven phosphorus recovery on the basis of lanthanum-modified cellulose sponge filter (LCLM) material. The adsorption-EMP method relies on in situ recovery phosphate (P) from the used desorption agent (NaOH-NaCl binary solution) via the formation of Ca5(PO4)3OH all while preserving the alkalinity of the desorption agents which benefited long-term application. The lanthanum content of LCLM was 9.0 mg/g, and the adsorption capacity reached 226.1 ± 15.2 mg P/g La at an equilibrium concentration of 3.9 mg P/L. After adsorption, 55.7 % of P was recovered, and the corresponding alkalinity increased from 1.9 mmol/L to 2.2 mmol/L. Adsorption mechanism analysis revealed that the high lanthanum usage of LCLM was attributed to the synergistic effect of the lattice oxygen of LaO and LaPO4·0.5H2O crystallite formation. Additionally, the Ca5(PO4)3OH was found precipitated in the precipitation in the cathode chamber (P-CC) rather than on the surface/section of cation exchange membrane (CEM) and cathode indicating that the P recovery process was controlled by the saturation of CaP species in the EMP system and the electromigration effect. These findings present a new strategy to promote the effective utilization of rare earth elements for P adsorption and demonstrate the potential application of adsorption-EMP systems in dephosphorization for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Developing mitigation mechanisms for eutrophication caused by the uncontrolled release of nutrients is in the interest of the scientific community. Adsorption, being operationally simple and economical with no significant secondary pollution, has proven to be a feasible technology for resource recovery. However, the utility of adsorption often lies in the availability of effective adsorbents. In this regard, polymer-based nanocomposite (PNC) adsorbents have been highly acclaimed by researchers because of their high surface area, multiple functional groups, biodegradability, and ease of large-scale production. This review paper elaborates on the functionality, adsorption mechanisms, and factors that affect the adsorption and adsorption-desorption cycles of PNC adsorbents toward nutrient resources. Moreover, this review gives insight into the application of recovered nutrient resources in soil amendment.

Cerium(IV) chitosan-based hydrogel composite for efficient adsorptive removal of phosphates(V) from aqueous solutions. Sci Rep 2023; 13:13049. [PMID: 37567895 PMCID: PMC10421956 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-40064-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
The excess presence of phosphate(V) ions in the biosphere is one of the most serious problems that negatively affect aqueous biocenosis. Thus, phosphates(V) separation is considered to be important for sustainable development. In the presented study, an original cerium(IV)-modified chitosan-based hydrogel (Ce-CTS) was developed using the chemical co-precipitation method and then used as an adsorbent for efficient removal of phosphate(V) ions from their aqueous solutions. From the scientific point of view, it represents a completely new physicochemical system. It was found that the adsorptive removal of phosphate(V) anions by the Ce-CTS adsorbent exceeded 98% efficiency which is ca. 4-times higher compared with the chitosan-based hydrogel without any modification (non-cross-linked CTS). The best result of the adsorption capacity of phosphates(V) on the Ce-CTS adsorbent, equal to 71.6 mg/g, was a result of adsorption from a solution with an initial phosphate(V) concentration 9.76 mg/dm3 and pH 7, an adsorbent dose of 1 g/dm3, temperature 20 °C. The equilibrium interphase distribution data for the Ce-CTS adsorbent and aqueous solution of phosphates(V) agreed with the theoretical Redlich-Peterson and Hill adsorption isotherm models. From the kinetic point of view, the pseudo-second-order model explained the phosphates(V) adsorption rate for Ce-CTS adsorbent the best. The specific effect of porous structure of adsorbent influencing the diffusional mass transfer resistances was identified using Weber-Morris kinetic model. The thermodynamic study showed that the process was exothermic and the adsorption ran spontaneously. Modification of CTS with cerium(IV) resulted in the significant enhancement of the chitosan properties towards both physical adsorption (an increase of the point of zero charge of adsorbent), and chemical adsorption (through the presence of Ce(IV) that demonstrates a chemical affinity for phosphate(V) anions). The elaborated and experimentally verified highly effective adsorbent can be successfully applied to uptake phosphates(V) from aqueous systems. The Ce-CTS adsorbent is stable in the conditions of the adsorption process, no changes in the adsorbent structure or leaching of the inorganic filling were observed.

Abstract
Low-cost and reliable wastewater treatment is a relevant issue worldwide to reduce the concentration of environmental pollutants. Industrial effluents containing dyes, heavy metals, and other inorganic and organic compounds can pollute water resources; therefore, novel technologies are required to mitigate and control their release into the environment. Adsorption is one of the simplest methods for treating contaminated water in which a wide spectrum of adsorbents can be used to remove emerging compounds. Hydrogels are interesting materials with high adsorption capacities that can be synthesized via green routes. These adsorbents are promising for large-scale industrial wastewater treatment applications; however, gaps still exist in achieving sustainable commercial implementation. This review focuses on the discussion and analysis of preparation, characterization, and adsorption properties of hydrogels for water purification. The advantages of these polymeric materials for water treatment were analyzed, including their performance in the removal of different organic and inorganic contaminants. Recent advances in the functionalization of hydrogels and the synthesis of novel composites have also been described. The adsorption capacities of hydrogel-based adsorbents are higher than 500 mg/g for different organic and inorganic pollutants, and can reach values of up to >2000 mg/g for organic compounds, significantly outperforming other materials reported for water cleaning. The main interactions involved in the adsorption of water pollutants using hydrogel-based adsorbents were described and explained to allow the interpretation of their removal mechanisms. The current challenges in the implementation of hydrogels for water purification in real-life operations are also highlighted. This review provides an updated picture of hydrogels as interesting materials to address water depollution worldwide.

Abstract
Phosphate (P) removal is significant for water pollution control. In this paper, a novel penicillin biochar modified with zirconium (ZMBC) was synthesized and used to adsorb P in water. The results showed that ZMBC had a porous structure and magnetic properties, and the zirconium (Zr) was mainly present in the form of an amorphous oxide. P adsorption displayed strong pH dependence. The Freundlich model described the adsorption process well, and the saturated adsorption capacity was 27.97 mg/g (25 ℃, pH = 7). The adsorption kinetics were consistent with the pseudo-second-order model, and the adsorption rates were jointly controlled by the surface adsorption stage and intraparticle diffusion stage. Coexisting anion experiments showed that CO32- inhibited P adsorption, reducing the adsorption capacity by 62.63%. The adsorbed P was easily desorbed by washing with a 1 M NaOH solution, and after 5 cycles, the adsorbent had almost the same capacity. The mechanism for P adsorption was inner-sphere complexation and electrostatic adsorption.

Abstract
In this study, biochar was prepared using penicillin fermentation residue (PR) as the raw material by different methods. The adsorption behavior and adsorption mechanism of biochar on tetracycline (TC) in an aqueous environment were investigated. The results showed that K2CO3 as an activator could effectively make porous structures, and that biochar with mesoporous or microporous could be prepared in a controlled manner with two kinds of different activation methods, the dry mixing method and the impregnation method. The dry mixing method could create more mesopores, while the impregnation method could prepare more micropores. Microporous biochar (IKBCH) with a high specific surface area could be prepared by the impregnation method combined with HCl soaking, which has an excellent adsorption effect on tetracycline. When the concentration of tetracycline was 200 mg/L, the removal rate of 99.91% could be achieved with the dosage of microporous biochar at 1 g/L. The adsorption process was in accordance with the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order model, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity of IKBCH was 268.55 mg/g (25°C). The adsorption mechanisms were pore filling, π-π interaction, electrostatic adsorption, and hydrogen bond. Its stable and wide applicability adsorption process does not cause ecological pollution in the aqueous environment, and it is a promising biochar adsorbent.

Abstract
Presence of excessive phosphorus in surface waters is the main cause for eutrophication. In this study, a lanthanum/chitosan (La/CS) bead was prepared so as to provide a cost-effective solution to the problem. The optimization of bead for the treatment was conducted, leading to the optimal condition: 30 wt% La/CS bead at a dosage of 30 g L-1 (wet weight). A higher phosphate removal around 90% was obtained in pH 4.0-10.0. Most of uptake occurred in the first 2 h and the equilibrium was reached in about 6 h. Coexisting ions of Cl-, [Formula: see text] , [Formula: see text] , and [Formula: see text] had negligible effects on the treatment, while the presence of F- reduced the uptake by 10.39%. The maximum adsorption capacity of 261.1 mg-PO4·g-1 (dried weight) at pH 5.0 was achieved, which is much better than many reported La-based adsorbents. The adsorbed phosphate can be effectively recovered with an alkaline solution. A multi-cycle regeneration-reuse study illustrated that the treated water still met the phosphorus discharge standard. The characterization results demonstrated the disappearance of La(OH)3 and La2(CO3)3 on the bead and the formation of NH3+ … P and La-P groups after the adsorption, indicating the significant roles of ion exchange and electrostatic attraction on the uptake. The excellent performance found in this study clearly indicates that the optimized La/CS bead is promising in the treatment of phosphate and perhaps its recovery for industrial use.

Abstract
Adsorption technology based on various adsorbents has been widely applied in wastewater treatment containing phosphate. A novel diatomite adsorbent composited with ZIF-8 (CZD) was developed for removing phosphate from water in this work. The chitosan was used to pre-modify the diatomite so that ZIF-8 could be anchored on the surface of the diatomite solidly and uniformly. The diatomite composited with ZIF-8 was then used to remove phosphate in water by an adsorption process, the process variables such as adsorption time, temperature, pH, and competitive ions were investigated. The electrostatic attraction was the primary mechanism of phosphate removal. The adsorption reached equilibrium within 90 min, and its sorption capacity increased when adsorption time and temperature increased. Especially, CZD had a rapid adsorption rate and 85% of the phosphate in the solution can be adsorbed within the first 10 min. The maximum phosphate adsorption capacities of the modified diatomite reached 13.46, 13.55, and 13.95 mg/g at 25, 35, and 45 °C, respectively. The removal efficiencies of CZD for phosphate were more than 98% and even came up to 100% at 45 °C. The adsorption isotherms fit well with the Langmuir isotherm model. The Freundlich isotherm and Temkin isotherm showed that the adsorption process is physical in nature. The kinetic data of the adsorption process were fitted by the pseudo-second-order kinetics. Thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption process was endothermic. This adsorbent provided an alternative for phosphate removal on account of the high adsorption efficiency in a short time. Therefore, CZD could be a promising and eco-friendly phosphate adsorbent for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
A lanthanum modified sludge biochar chitosan (La-SBC-CS) microsphere was successfully synthesized by dropping sludge biochar (BC) and chitosan into a lanthanum chloride solution. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the adsorption kinetics and isotherm. Application of continuous phosphate removal was achieved via lab-scale column reactors. The phosphate adsorption equilibrium data of the La-SBC-CS fitted well with the Freundlich isotherm, with a maximum adsorption amount of 81.54 mg p/g at 25 °C. Characterization of the adsorbent using scanning electron microscopy analysis (SEM), X-ray energy spectrum analysis (EDS), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and Fourier infrared analysis (FTIR) techniques suggested that the possible adsorption mechanisms were electrostatic interaction, ligand exchange and complexation. The La-SBC-CS kept 76.37% phosphate removal efficiency after eight recycles. The results of continuous column reactor experiment demonstrated that the breakthrough time increased with an increase in adsorbent filling height, while it decreased with an increase in initial phosphate concentration or flow velocity. The Yoon model was applied to the continuous experimental data to predict breakthrough curves and determined the characteristic adsorption parameters for process design. This study indicated the potential for the practical application of La-SBC-CS in phosphate removal from wastewater.
