Abstract
The multi-source hazardous waste co-disposal system, a recent innovation in the industry, offers an efficient approach for hazardous waste disposal. The incineration fly ash (HFA) produced by this system exhibits characteristics distinct from those of typical incineration fly ash, necessitating the use of adjusted disposal methods. This study examined the physicochemical properties, heavy metal content, heavy metal leaching concentration, and dioxin content of HFA generated by the new co-disposal system and compared them with those of conventional municipal waste incineration fly ash. This study investigated the solidification and stabilization of HFA disposal using the organic agent sodium diethyl dithiocarbamate combined with cement on a field scale. The findings revealed significant differences in the structure, composition, and dioxin content of HFA and FA; HFA contained substantially lower levels of dioxins than FA did. Concerning the heavy metal content and leaching; HFA exhibited an unusually high concentration of zinc, surpassing the permitted emission limits, making zinc content a critical consideration in HFA disposal. After stabilization and disposal, the heavy metal leaching and dioxin content of HFA can meet landfill disposal emission standards when a 1% concentration of 10% sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC) and 150% silicate cement were employed. These results offer valuable insights into the disposal of fly ash resulting from incineration of mixed hazardous waste.

Feather-weight cryostructured thiourea-chitosan aerogels for highly efficient removal of heavy metal ions and bacterial pathogens. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 235:123910. [PMID: 36870629 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.123910] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2022] [Revised: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/06/2023]
Abstract
Designing of economically feasible and recyclable polysaccharide-based materials with thiourea functional groups for removal of specific metal ions such as Ag(I), Au(I), Pb(II) or Hg(II) remains a major challenge for environmental applications. Here, we introduce ultra-lightweight thiourea-chitosan (CSTU) aerogels engineered by combining successive freeze-thawing cycles with covalent formaldehyde-mediated cross-linking and lyophilization. All aerogels exhibited outstanding low densities (0.0021-0.0103 g/cm3) and remarkable high specific surface areas (416.64-447.26 m2/g), outperforming the common polysaccharide-based aerogels. Benefitting from their superior structural features (honeycomb interconnected pores and high porosity), CSTU aerogels demonstrate fast sorption rates and excellent performance in sorption of heavy metal ions from highly-concentrated single or binary-component mixtures (1.11 mmol Ag (I)/g and 0.48 mmol Pb(II)/g). A remarkable recycling stability was observed after five sorption-desorption-regeneration cycles when the removal efficiency was up to 80 %. These results support the high potential of CSTU aerogels in the treatment of metal-containing wastewater. Moreover, the Ag(I)-loaded CSTU aerogels exhibited excellent antimicrobial properties against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus bacterial strains, the killing rate being around 100 %. This data points towards the potential application of developed aerogels in circular economy, by employing the spent Ag(I)-loaded aerogels in the biological decontamination of waters.

Abstract
Resourcization has become a popular research topic for the final disposal of municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWI FA). However, the current research is limited to building material preparation or valuable chloride recovery, which may cause resource waste and secondary pollution. A unique process, heat treatment with the addition of kaolin (KL), was presented to achieve complete resource utilization of MSWI FA. The physical properties of ceramsite could be improved by adding KL, and dioxin removal, heavy metals, and valuable chloride separation could be achieved via sintering at 1150 °C. The separation and purification of dust carried by the flue gas during thermal treatment (secondary fly ash) was achieved via wet separation. A building ceramsite with a compressive strength of 24.8 MPa was obtained, whereas dioxin and heavy metal toxicity were far below the standard limits. Heavy metal content was enriched by 12 times, approximately 59.6%, achieved after secondary fly ash separation and purification. A heavy metal product containing 39.5% Zn, 19.1% Pb, and chloride salt containing 41.8% KCl were obtained. This showed a high potential for the developed process to separate multiple valuable elements from ashes. This novel process will further promote the development and application of harmless and resourceful technologies for MSWI FA.

Abstract
Municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (FA) contains high contents of salts and high concentrations of heavy metals, which makes FA disposal extremely difficult. However, heavy metal elements could potentially be separated from FA during thermal treatment process to make it possible to be recycled. This work aims to study the volatilization of heavy metals in FA treated by molten salt method. The influence of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and coal ash (CA) on volatilization of heavy metals was investigated. Within the scope of this study, the highest heavy metal removal rate can be under the condition: the calcium chloride/sodium chloride weight ratio 1:1, the FA/molten salt weight ratio 1:10, treatment temperature 1000°C for 2 hours in reducing atmosphere. The volatilization rates of lead, zinc, copper, chromium and manganese were 86.20, 67.53, 65.24, 50.07 and 39.45%, respectively. On the basis of molten salt treatment, adding PVC could promote the volatilization of heavy metals. The volatilization rate of lead was 96.71%, and the volatilization rates of chromium and manganese were higher than 60% when the content of PVC was 5 wt%. When adding 10 wt% CA and 1 wt% polyvinyl chloride, the volatilization rate of lead could reach 100%. The experiments and thermodynamic calculations showed that silicon dioxide and aluminium oxide in CA and hydrochloric acid decomposed from PVC could promote the chlorination and volatilization of heavy metals. The volatilized heavy metal chlorides provided the possibility of recovery and utilization of heavy metals in FA.

Abstract
Incineration has gradually become the most effective way to deal with MSW due to its obvious volume reduction and weight reduction effects. However, since heavy metals and organic pollutants carried by municipal solid waste incinerator fly ash (MSWI FA) pose a serious threat to the ecological environment and human health, they need to be handled carefully. In this study, the current status of MSWI FA disposal was first reviewed, and the harmless and resourceful disposal technologies of heavy metals and organic pollutants in MSWI FA are summarized as well. A summary of the advantages and disadvantages of each technology, including sintering, melting/vitrification, hydrothermal treatment, mechanochemistry, solidification/stabilization of MSWI FA, is compared. Finally, the research work that needs to be strengthened in the future (such as codisposal of multiple wastes, long-term stability research of disposal products, etc.) was proposed. Through comprehensive analysis, some reasonable and feasible suggestions were provided for the effective and safe disposal of MSWI FA in the future.

Abstract
Sufficient attention should be attached to the large amount of fly ash containing high levels of toxic heavy metals generated after municipal solid waste incineration. Because heavy metals could be leached out of the fly ash under specific conditions, it is necessary to stabilize the heavy metals in fly ash before landfill disposal. Processing technologies of incineration fly ash include solidification/stabilization technology, thermal treatments, and separation processes. This study reviewed the current treatment technologies of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash, with the main focus on the treatment of heavy metals in fly ash with chemical stabilization. Chemical stabilization processes involve chemical precipitation of heavy metal and chelation of heavy metals. In multiple studies, chemical stabilization technology has shown practical feasibility in terms of technology, economy, and effect. In addition, the combination of two or more stabilization agents broadens the general applicability of the agents to heavy metals and reduces the cost. The application of joint processing technology realizes the remove of soluble salt from fly ash. To minimize pollutants while increase their usable value, effective use of waste and co-disposal of several kinds of wastes have gradually become the research hotspots. New developments in chemical stabilization are progressively moving towards the sustainable direction of harmlessness and resource utilization of MSWI fly ash.

Abstract
In this study, N and S co-doped chitosan polymer matrix-derived composite (CuS/NSC) was synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal technique using a low-cost copper complex of chitosan polymer. Cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry revealed excellent electrocatalytic performance. The glucose sensor exhibited a linear range of 160 μM to 11.76 mM, a low detection limit 2.72 μM and a sensitivity of 13.62 mA mM-1 cm-2 with an excellent linear response. Furthermore, the sensor also displayed selectivity for glucose over potential interfering agents and exhibited a satisfactory recovery percentage using real sample in human serum. The results demonstrate that, CuS/NSC is an efficient nanocomposite material for non-enzymatic glucose sensors and is applicable for glucose detection in biological fluids.

Abstract
Polymer materials have become one of the potential materials for remediation of heavy metal (HM) contamination in water and soil. However, the specific advantages of polymers are rarely studied. Water-soluble thiourea formaldehyde resin (WTF) is one of the effective polymer amendments. Through leaching experiments, WTF can stabilize 93.0% of Cd2+ and 99.7% of Cu2+. The results of HM morphology analysis show that after adding WTF, most of the HMs have been transformed into a relatively stable state. For example, in the process of remediation of 6 mg/kg Cd contaminated soil, the proportion of acid-soluble Cd decreased from 56.5% to 12.8%, and the residual state increased from 13.5% to 45.4%. Compared with the resin-free structure, the three-dimensional structure of the resin plays an important role, but the efficiency of precipitation with HMs is doubled. According to the simulation of the adsorption process by Materials Studio, the characterization of the scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive instrument and the results of the adsorption experiment, in the solution, the precipitate formed by WTF and Cd2+ has multilayer adsorption of HMs, and can further adsorb HM by -OH. Soil enzyme activity experiments proved that the risk of secondary pollution by adding WTF is rare, and even WTF can achieve the effect of slow-release nitrogen fertilizer. In the WTF remediation process, the biological toxicity reduction of HMs is result from, on the one hand, the complexation of functional group of WTF; on the other hand, the resin structure of WTF; in addition, multi-layer adsorption and adsorption of end groups in the precipitation formed by WTF and HM. This work provides a theoretical basis for the potential capabilities of water-soluble resins and is beneficial to the design and development of subsequent amendments.

Selective recovery of platinum from spent autocatalyst solution by thiourea modified magnetic biocarbons. Sci Rep 2021; 11:19281.

Abstract
The precious platinum group metals distributed in urban industrial products should be recycled because of their rapid decline in the contents through excessive mining. In this work, thiourea modified magnetic biocarbons are prepared via an energy-efficient microwave-assisted activation and assessed as potential adsorbents to recover platinum ions (i.e., Pt(IV)) from dilute waste solution. The physicochemical properties of prepared biocarbons are characterized by a series of spectroscopic and analytic instruments. The adsorption performance of biocarbons is carried out by using batch tests. Consequently, the maximum adsorption capacity of Pt(IV) observed for adsorbents is ca. 42.8 mg g-1 at pH = 2 and 328 K. Both adsorption kinetics and isotherm data of Pt(IV) on the adsorbents are fitted better with non-linear pseudo second-order model and Freundlich isotherm, respectively. Moreover, the thermodynamic parameters suggest that the Pt(IV) adsorption is endothermic and spontaneous. Most importantly, the adsorbents exhibit high selectivity toward Pt(IV) adsorption and preserve ca. 96.9% of adsorption capacity after six cyclic runs. After adsorption, the regeneration of the prepared adsorbents can be effectively attained by using 1 M thiourea/2% HCl mixed solution as an eluent. Combined the data from Fourier transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies, the mechanisms for Pt(IV) adsorption are governed by Pt-S bond between Pt(IV) and thiourea as well as the electrostatic attraction between anionic PtCl62- and cationic functional groups of adsorbents. The superior Pt(IV) recovery and sustainable features allow the thiourea modified magnetic biocarbon as a potential adsorbent to recycle noble metals from spent autocatalyst solution.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Anti-tumor activity of some thioureas derivatives is well documented in literature and received considerable attention. The present study aims to synthesize and characterize some novel thioureas and carbonylthioureas as anti-tumor agents for MCF-7 breast cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. MATERIALS AND METHODS Several 1-allyl-3-(substituted phenyl), N,N'-(phenylene) bis(3- allyldithithiourea) and 1-cyclopropanecarbonyl-3-(substituted phenyl)-thioureas derivatives were synthesized and confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy, NMR and 13C-NMR. Anti-tumor activity of these compounds was determined by various in vitro and in vivo assays including; MTT, tumor volume measurement as well as,99mTc-MIBI tumor uptake in MCF-7 tumor bearing nude mice. RESULTS Among all of the synthesized compounds, some thioureas derivatives [3i] and [4b] at 100 nM concentration exhibited significant inhibitory effects on the proliferation of MCF-7 cell in vitro. However, this inhibition was not observed in HUVEC human endothelial normal cells. In vivo anti-tumor effects of the synthesized compounds on MCF-7 xenograft mouse models demonstrated a reduction in the tumor volume for various concentrations between 2 to 10 mg/kg after 21 days. These effects were comparable with Tamoxifen as standard anti-estrogen drug. According to the 99mTc-MIBI biodistribution result, treatment of MCF-7 bearing nude mice with both [3i] and [4b] compounds at the maximum concentration (10 mg/kg) can lead to a significant decrease of 99mTc- MIBI tumor uptake. CONCLUSION Compounds [3i] and [4b] suppressed the growth of MCF-7 cells in the xenograft nude mice at the doses that were well-tolerated. Our study suggests that these new compounds with their significant anti-tumor effects, may serve as useful candidates for breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
It is very important to seek a heavy metal soil stabilization/solidification (S/S) agent that has less risk of secondary release and has less impact on the soil. This study explored the repair effect of a new resin repair agent water-soluble thiourea-formaldehyde (WTF), and its stability under indigenous biodegradation and compared the repair effect with sodium sulfide (Na2S) and hydroxyapatite (HAP). Diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid leaching experiments show that WTF can effectively solidify/stabilize 97.9-84.7% of Cu. At the same time, heavy metal speciation analysis experiments show that WTF does indeed convert the exchangeable Cu in the soil into a non-exchangeable form. Research on soil organic matter, biological carbon and enzyme activity after remediation shows that WTF has a more positive effect on soil function, compared with HAP and Na2S. Experiments using indigenous microorganisms to decompose the precipitation formed by WTF and Cu show that under the condition of less impact on soil microorganisms, the risk of secondary release of heavy metals caused by soil microorganisms after WTF remediation is less. These findings provide valuable experience for understanding the role of resin structure in preventing the secondary release of heavy metals and restoring soil function.

Abstract
Fly ash is a hazardous material that is produced from municipal solid waste incineration. It contains heavy metals and should be properly treated to meet landfill entry requirements. In this study, under the precondition that the leachable concentration of lead (Pb) exceeded the limit value for landfill disposal, the effects of cement solidification, chemical stabilization, and their combination on the leachable Pb concentration and the chemical state of Pb were systematically investigated. In addition, the reaction conditions were optimized by response surface methodology (RSM) in terms of leachable Pb concentration, volume change ratio, and treatment cost. The results indicated that the leachable Pb concentration decreased at lower cement or sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PO4) dosages in cement solidification or NaH2PO4 stabilization, and the liquid-to-solid ratio had a significant influence on cement solidification. The leachable Pb concentration met the limit value for landfill disposal in the individual processes with 20% cement or 5% NaH2PO4, and in the combined process with 10% cement + 2% NaH2PO4. The combined process achieved the best treatment efficiency by enabling Pb to transform to a stable residual state. According to the RSM, a combined cement content of 11.64%, NaH2PO4 content of 2.79%, and liquid-to-solid ratio of 0.48 were the optimal parameters, resulting in substantial decreases in the volume change ratio and treatment costs, while satisfying the preconditions for landfill disposal. In conclusion, the combined process can reduce the pollution risk to the environment, and is an efficient and cost-effective pre-treatment method for incinerator fly ash.

Abstract
In this work, the hydrothermal coupling pyrolysis (HTP) method was used to treat municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (IFA) and municipal sewage sludge (MSS). The regulation of migration mechanism of heavy metals (HMs), which included Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb, were investigated, including the conditional effects of hydrothermal pretreatment (HTT), the pyrolysis temperature, the pyrolysis time, and the heating rate (HR) on the HM distribution. The results indicated that HTT, as a pretreatment method, achieved the redistribution and preliminary immobilization of the HMs, decreasing the potential environmental risk level. After HTP, the HMs (Cr, Ni, and Cu) were more immobilized, and this effect was enhanced when the pyrolysis temperature was increased from 300 to 800 °C. However, Zn, Cd, and Pb evaporated under high temperature. Leaching experiments revealed that all the HMs in the pyro-char from pyrolysis at 800 °C were below the standard (US EPA). The influences of the HR and pyrolysis time on the HM immobilization were slight under a higher temperature. After HTP, the HM environmental risk decreased to a low level. The physico-chemical characteristics of the pyro-char demonstrated that carbon trapping and chemical sedimentation played leading roles in the middle-temperature range, while mineral matrix encapsulation might have been dominant under high temperature.

Abstract
A novel heavy metal chelating agent, dithiocarboxylate-functionalized polyaminoamide dendrimer (PAMAM-0G-DTC), was evaluated for the stabilization of heavy metals from municipal solids waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash. PAMAM-0G-DTC achieved overall stabilization performance at a lower dosage (3% w/w) and a wider pH range (2-13) compared to conventional chelating agents such as sodium dimethyl dithiocarbamate (SDD) and dithiocarboxylate-functionalized tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA-DTC). The leaching toxicity of Pb and Cd in the MSWI fly ash by PAMAM-0G-DTC stabilization met the landfill requirements but could not be achieved by SDD and TEPA-DTC even at a 10 wt% concentration. Sequential chemical extraction of fly ash before and after stabilization shows that PAMAM-0G-DTC can be combined with active heavy metals in water-soluble, interchangeable, and carbonate states to form more stable heavy metals in organic and residual states. Mechanistic studies show that multiple PAMAM-0G-DTC molecules can combine with multiple heavy metals to form three-dimensional network-like super-molecular compounds with an infinite extension of space size. This makes the heavy metals more stable and embedded in the network-like super-molecular structure, thus minimizing the potential risk of leaching. Overall, by forming more geochemically stable phases, the treatment of fly ash with PAMAM-0G-DTC has a strong ability to reduce the toxic leaching of heavy metals at a lower dosage and suppress the risk of secondary pollution in a landfill at a wide range of pH values (2-13).

Technologies for the management of MSW incineration ashes from gas cleaning: New perspectives on recovery of secondary raw materials and circular economy. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2018; 635:526-542.

Abstract
Environmental policies in the European Union focus on the prevention of hazardous waste and aim to mitigate its impact on human health and ecosystems. However, progress is promoting a shift in perspective from environmental impacts to resource recovery. Municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) has been increasing in developed countries, thus the amount of air pollution control residues (APCr) and fly ashes (FA) have followed the same upward trend. APCr from MSWI is classified as hazardous waste in the List of Waste (LoW) and as an absolute entry (19 01 07*), but FA may be classified as a mirror entry (19 0 13*/19 01 14). These properties arise mainly from their content in soluble salts, potentially toxic metals, trace organic pollutants and high pH in contact with water. Since these residues have been mostly disposed of in underground and landfills, other possibilities must be investigated to recover secondary raw materials and products. According to the literature, four additional routes of recovery have been found: detoxification (e.g. washing), product manufacturing (e.g. ceramic products and cement), practical applications (e.g. CO2 sequestration) and recovery of materials (e.g. Zn and salts). This work aims to identify the best available technologies for material recovery in order to avoid landfill solutions. Within this scope, six case studies are presented and discussed: recycling in lightweight aggregates, glass-ceramics, cement, recovery of zinc, rare metals and salts. Finally, future perspectives are provided to advance understanding of this anthropogenic waste as a source of resources, yet tied to safeguards for the environment.

Abstract
Stabilization/Solidification (S/S) can be regarded as necessary for remediation of heavy metal contaminated soil. There is, however, solid agent is not very convenient to use. Water-soluble thiourea-formaldehyde (WTF) is a novel chelating agent, which has more practical applications. The process of WTF resin for S/S process of heavy metal contaminated soils was studied. Laboratory-prepared slurries, made of field soils spiked with Cd2+ and Cr6+ were treated with WTF resin. The toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) showed that with 2 wt% WTF, in the neutral condition of soil after treatment for 7 d, the leaching concentrations of Cd2+ and Cr6+ in contaminated soil were decreased by 80.3% and 92.6% respectively. Moreover, Tessier sequence extraction procedure showed WTF resin reduced the leaching concentration by transforming heavy metal from exchange form to organic form. The structure of WTF is obtained according to elemental analysis result and reaction mechanism. Through analysis of the infrared spectrogram of WTF and WTF heavy mental chelating precipitation, WTF can form stable chelate with heavy mental through coordination. The significant groups are hydroxyl, nitrogen and sulphur function groups in WTF mainly. Toxicology test revealed that the WTF resin is nontoxic to microorganism in the soils.
