[PMID: 38484520 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.03.054] [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: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 03/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/07/2024]
Abstract
The instability and high electron-hole recombination have limited the application of black phosphorus (BP) as an excellent photocatalyst. To address these challenges, poly dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride (PDDA), poly (allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH), and polyethyleneimine (PEI) are introduced to the functionalization of BP (F-BP), which can not only enhance its stability, but also boost the carrier transfer. Furthermore, a high-performance heterojunction photocatalyst is fabricated using F-BP and titania nanosheets (TNs) via a layer-by-layer self-assembly approach. The experimental outcomes unequivocally indicate that F-BP exhibits fast charge migration compared to BP. The density functional theory (DFT), in situ Kelvin-probe force microscopy (KPFM) and other advanced characterization techniques collectively unfold that PDDA modified BP can notably boost separation and propagation of charges, along with an enhanced carrier abundance. In summary, this novel strategy of using polyelectrolytes to enhance the electron transfer and the stability of BP permits immense potential in building next-generation BP-based high efficiency photocatalysts.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 347:123707. [PMID: 38447652 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.123707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 03/02/2024] [Indexed: 03/08/2024]
Abstract
The establishment of heterojunctions was considered as an exceptional strategy to obtain high-efficiency charge separation and enhanced photocatalytic performance. Herein, a series of FePMo/MIL-53(Fe) (FeM-53) heterojunctions were successfully constructed through in-situ growth of FePMo onto MIL-53(Fe) surface and their photocatalytic capacity were examined by visible-light-induced Cr(VI) reduction. Interestingly, the as-fabricated composites offered various photocatalytic activities controllably relying on the mass ratio of FePMo to MIL-53(Fe). Particularly, the one with the 10% ratio displayed the highest Cr(VI) reduction rate (100%) within 75 min, which was respectively over 4 and 2 folds higher than pure FePMo and MIL-53(Fe). The boosted photoactivity might be ascribed to the establishment of S-scheme heterojunction with suitable band alignment between FePMo and MIL-53(Fe), which broadened the light absorption range and improved charge separation. Further mechanism investigations implied both •O2- and e- were the key reactive species for Cr(VI) removal. Besides, the composite preserved excellent stability after 4 consecutive tests, and performed well in the presence of organic dyes. Such a S-scheme heterojunction may promise for highly efficient environmental mitigation.

Abstract
A series of NH2-functionalized nano-sized magnetic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) were prepared in this study for Cr(VI) removal from wastewater. It was observed that not only the morphological, i.e., orientation growth of N-doped and iron-based metal-organic frameworks, but also the adsorption of magnetic MOFs is largely related to the used amount of ammonium hydroxide in preparation. For example, with increasing amounts of ammonium hydroxide used in preparation, the morphology of magnetic MOFs changed from spherical to cube and triangular cone. Moreover, the maximum adsorption capacity of spherical-magnetic MOFs, cubic-magnetic MOFs and triangular cone-magnetic MOFs could be up to 204.08 mg/g, 232.56 mg/g and 270.27 mg/g, respectively. Under optimal conditions, the adsorption process of magnetic MOFs for Cr(VI) was consistent with the pseudo-second-order rate equation (R2 = 1) and Langmuir isotherm model (R2 > 0.99). Therefore, magnetic MOFs developed in this work offered a viable option for the removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater.

JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT 2023; 348:119302.

Abstract
Building S-scheme heterostructures is a sophisticated approach to receiving outstanding catalysts for environmental detoxification. Herein, ternary CuO/Cd0.5Zn0.5S/Bi5O7I (CO/CZS/BOI) nanocomposites were constructed by in-situ decorating of CuO and Cd0.5Zn0.5S nanoparticles onto Bi5O7I micro-sphere in a facile route. The optimal CO/CZS/BOI reflected reinforced bisphenol A (BPA) photo-oxidation (95% in 70 min) and Cr(VI) photo-reduction (96.6 in 60 min) under visible light. Besides, CO/CZS/BOI afforded 5.10 (4.44), 4.42 (3.71), and 6.60 (5.27) fold reinforcement in the BPA (Cr(VI)) photo-reaction rate compared to BOI, CZS, and CO, respectively. This behavior was linked to the development of S-scheme mechanisms resulting from the co-effects of BOI, CZS, and CO in retaining the optimum redox capacity, facilitating the dissolution of photo-carriers, increasing reactive sites, and strengthening the visible-light response. The parameters influencing the catalytic reaction of CO/CZS/BOI, such as light intensity, catalyst dosage, and pH, were deeply studied. The quenching tests declared the prominent roles •O2- and •OH in the breaking down of BPA and the participation of electrons and •O2- in the photocatalytic conversion of Cr(VI). The cyclic tests verified the robust photostability of CO/CZS/BOI, which is associated with the reintegration process between the free h+ coming from CZS and the photo-induced e- of CO and BOI in the S-scheme system. In conclusion, the present study provides a profound understanding of the photo-reaction mechanism of CO/CZS/BOI and introduces a novel concept for constructing a superior dual-Scheme system for efficient wastewater detoxification.

Abstract
The proven high carcinogenicity to humans and high destructive force to the environment determine the extreme urgency of eliminating hypertoxic Cr(VI) in water bodies. Herein, a route of room temperature synthesis and secondary grafting was proposed to fabricate graphene oxide-based nanoadsorbent co-functionalized with polydopamine and branched polyethyleneimine (GOPP) to remove Cr(VI). The flexible decoration of polydopamine and polyethyleneimine on GO flakes could gradually enhance the amount of N-containing functional groups and realize selective removal of Cr(VI) with the maximum experimental adsorption capacity of 564.7 mg/g, displaying a significantly high separation factor against alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, and other transition metal ions. Various combination mechanisms, such as electrostatic attraction, reduction, complexation, and hydrogen bonding, were demonstrated to be involved in the adsorption process of Cr(VI) by XPS, ESP, and DFT calculations. And the interaction energies of the five protonated configurations of primary amine, tertiary amine, secondary amine, imine, and secondary amine on the ring with HCrO4- were: -22.66, -12.08, -24.92, -24.26, -27.64 kcal/mol. In the actual industrial wastewater study, a Cr(VI) removal rate of 85.8% was realized. This work provided a viable idea for the elimination of Cr(VI) and was expected to be applied in the field of wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) fabrication is a significant approach to enhance the visible light response of photocatalysts, to realize inexpensive and more harmful compound removal, at larger scale. The poor electrons and holes separation capability and low light activity of bulk materials can be notably enhanced through developing NPs. From photocatalytic investigation, better performance was received in the tungsten diselenide (WSe2) NPs than that in bare WSe2, exhibiting the action of restrained recombination of charge carriers in the NPs. The photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction efficiency of WSe2 NPs is 2.7 folds greater than that by bare WSe2. On the other hand, the photocatalytic efficiency follows the order of nano WSe2-3 > nano WSe2-2 > nano WSe2-1 > bare WSe2, nano WSe2-3 is nearly 2.7 folds greater than that of bare WSe2. The results imply the fabrication of WSe2 NPs and it possesses improved visible light utilization. The proposed WSe2 NPs have merged with the three aspects of photocatalytic capability including the visible light activity, the valid separation of photo-response charge carriers and enough surface active sites owing to the nanoscale formed. This research endows conduct on the potential style of NPs for photo-response water environmental remediation.

Abstract
Heavy metals in water are critical global environmental problems. In particular, the anionic heavy metal chromium (Cr) has carcinogenic and genotoxic risks on human health. To this end, an ultralight and flexible nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC)/chitosan (CS) aerogel was developed only by freeze-drying combined with physical thermal cross-linking for efficient one step co-removal of Cr(VI) and Cr(III). The maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) and total Cr calculated according to the Langmuir model was 197.33 and 134.12 mg/g, respectively. Even in the presence of competing soluble organics, anions and oil contaminants, the resulting NFC/CS-5 aerogels showed excellent selectivity. The aerogel exhibited outstanding mechanical integrity, remaining intact after 17 compressions in air and underwater. Meanwhile, after 5 adsorption-desorption cycles, the aerogel was easy to regenerate and maintained a high regeneration efficiency of 80.25%. Importantly, self-assembled NFC/CS-5 aerogel filter connected with the peristaltic pump could purify 752 mL of industrial wastewater with Cr(VI) pre-concentration capacity of 49.71 mg/g. XPS and FT-IR verified that electrostatic interactions, reduction and complexation acted as the main driving forces for the adsorption process. Moreover, such aerogel possessed broad application prospects for alleviating heavy metal pollution in agriculture.

Abstract
A Fe-N conjugated organic polymer (SMP-Fr-Py) was prepared from ferrocene and pyrrole using a Scholl coupling reaction, which significantly improved the performance of Cr(VI) removal compared to the polymer (HCP-Fr-Py) prepared by adding the cross-linker formaldehyde dimethyl acetal (FDA). The results showed that at a pH of 2 and at 25 °C, the removal of Cr(VI) reached 90% for SMP-Fr-Py and only 58% for HCP-Fr-Py after 20 min of reaction. Subsequently, 99% and 78% were achieved after 120 min of reaction, respectively. The test results showed that the removal reaction followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The removal efficiency decreased with increasing solution pH and initial Cr(VI) concentration, but increased with increasing SMP-Fr-Py dosage, reaching three cycles. The characterization of the reaction complexes and measurements of Cr species conversion revealed the near absence of Cr(VI) species in the solution. Approximately 38% of Cr(VI) was found to be adsorbed on the material surface, with another fraction present in solution (24%) and on the material surface (38%) in the form of Cr(III). The overall study showed that the direct connection of ferrocene and pyrrole in SMP-Fr-Py through C-C bonding increased the conjugated structure of the polymer backbone, which facilitated electron transfer and transport. Furthermore, the Fe-N elements worked synergistically with each other more easily, which improved the removal performance of Cr(VI) and provided a reference for the subsequent work.

Abstract
The recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from discharged electronic devices or mineral waste water is highly essential but still facing challenges. In this work, two amino-functionalized carboxyl-UiO-66 (UiO-66-COOH-TETA and UiO-66-(COOH)2-ED) prepared via the postmodification method were employed as the adsorbents for Yb(III) capture. The experimental results revealed their superior adsorption capacities of 161.5 and 202.6 mg/g, respectively. Meanwhile, their adsorption processes can be described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir model. Effects of initial pH and temperature on adsorptions were systematically evaluated, affording an optimal operating condition (i.e., pH of 5.5-6, T of 65 °C, t of 10 h). Moreover, the fabricated materials exhibited great reusability after five adsorption-regeneration cycles. UiO-66-COOH-TETA demonstrated good separation selectivity for Yb(III) over light REEs (i.e., 3.98 of Yb/Ce, 3.51 of Yb/Nd). Based on the density functional theory calculations and characterization analysis (XPS, Zeta, mapping, and IR), the adsorption mechanisms were mainly attributed to significant electrostatic attraction and strong surface complexation between N and O sites and Yb(III).

Abstract
In order to solve the poor structural stability of graphene oxide (GO) membrane, a facile and effective cross-linking technology was employed to create a high-performance GO membrane. Herein, DL-Tyrosine/amidinothiourea and (3-Aminopropyl) triethoxysilane were used to crosslink GO nanosheets and porous alumina substrate, respectively. The group evolution of GO with different cross-linking agents was detected via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Ultrasonic treatment and soaking experiment were conducted to explore the structural stability of the different membranes. The GO membrane cross-linked with amidinothiourea exhibits exceptional structural stability. Meanwhile, the membrane has superior separation performance, with the pure water flux reaching approximately 109.6 l·m-2·h-1·bar-1. During the treatment of 0.1 g l-1NaCl solution, its permeation flux and rejection for NaCl are about 86.8 l·m-2·h-1·bar-1and 50.8%, respectively. The long-term filtration experiment also demonstrates that the membrane exhibits great operational stability. All these indicate the cross-linking graphene oxide membrane has promising potential applications in water treatment.

Abstract
Multiple potentially toxic elements (PTEs) often coexist in practical wastewater environment, which poses serious risks to the ecological environment and human health. However, few of the reported adsorbents are capable of simultaneously and effectively removing multiple PTEs from wastewater due to the unique properties of each element. In this work, a multifunctional adsorbent FMHs was developed by optimizing Fe2+/Fe3+/Mn2+/HA ratio, and applied to remove Cd(II), Pb(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), As(III), Sb(III), As(V) and Sb(V) from aqueous solution. Results revealed that the adsorption data obeyed the Elovich, Sips and Redlich-Peterson models in the mono-component system, and the maximum adsorption capacity of FMHs was superior to most adsorbents reported in the literatures. In addition, FMHs retained considerable removal capacity after four cycles, and maintained excellent adsorption performance under the interference of different environmental factors (including pH, ionic strength, co-existing ions and humic acid). In the multi-component system, FMHs also presented high adsorption capacity for all the selected PTEs, especially for Sb(III/V) and Pb(II). Characterization results confirmed that various removal mechanisms, such as precipitation, surface complexation, ion exchange, electrostatic attraction and redox, were responsible for the capture of PTEs by FMHs.

[PMID: 36679268 PMCID: PMC9863183 DOI: 10.3390/polym15020388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2022] [Revised: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Sorptive removal of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) bears the advantages of simple operation and easy construction. Customized polymeric materials are the attracting adsorbents due to their selectivity, chemical and mechanical stabilities. The mostly investigated polymeric materials for removing Cr(VI) were reviewed in this work. Assembling of robust functional groups, reduction of self-aggregation, and enhancement of stability and mechanical strength, were the general strategies to improve the performance of polymeric adsorbents. The maximum adsorption capacities of these polymers toward Cr(VI) fitted by Langmuir isotherm model ranged from 3.2 to 1185 mg/g. Mechanisms of complexation, chelation, reduction, electrostatic attraction, anion exchange, and hydrogen bonding were involved in the Cr(VI) removal. Influence factors on Cr(VI) removal were itemized. Polymeric adsorbents performed much better in the strong acidic pH range (e.g., pH 2.0) and at higher initial Cr(VI) concentrations. The adsorption of Cr(VI) was an endothermic reaction, and higher reaction temperature favored more robust adsorption. Anions inhibited the removal of Cr(VI) through competitive adsorption, while that was barely affected by cations. Factors that affected the regeneration of these adsorbents were summarized. To realize the goal of industrial application and environmental protection, removal of the Cr(VI) accompanied by its detoxication through reduction is highly encouraged. Moreover, development of adsorbents with strong regeneration ability and low cost, which are robust for removing Cr(VI) at trace levels and a wider pH range, should also be an eternally immutable subject in the future. Work done will be helpful for developing more robust polymeric adsorbents and for promoting the treatment of Cr(VI)-containing wastewater.

Abstract
Emerging chromium (Cr) species have attracted increasing concern. A majority of Cr species, especially hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)), could lead to lethal effects on human beings, animals, and aquatic lives even at low concentrations. One of the conventional water-treatment methodologies, adsorption, could remove these toxic Cr species efficiently. Additionally, adsorption possesses many advantages, such as being cost-saving, easy to implement, highly efficient and facile to design. Previous research has shown that the application of different adsorbents, such as carbon nanotubes (carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene oxide (GO) and its derivatives), activated carbons (ACs), biochars (BCs), metal-based composites, polymers and others, is being used for Cr species removal from contaminated water and wastewater. The research progress and application of adsorption for Cr removal in recent years are reviewed, the mechanisms of adsorption are also discussed and the development trend of Cr treatment by adsorption is proposed.

Abstract
Abstract
Due to the relative abundance, long half-life and high mobility of radioactive cesium (Cs), new adsorbents are urgently needed to treat Cs to ensure public health. In this study, a graphene oxide (GO) based adsorbent for Cs(I) adsorption was prepared by 1-aza-18-crown-6 ether modification. XRD, FT-IR, XPS and SEM results showed that the properties of 1-aza-18-crown 6 ether modified GO (18C6-GO) changed dramatically compared with that of raw graphite. The adsorption properties of 18C6-GO for Cs(I) were studied by batch static adsorption experiments. The results showed that the adsorption equilibrium time of 18C6-GO was 20 h. Kinetic study revealed that the adsorption rate of Cs(I) conformed to pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Langmuir adsorption isotherm simulation indicated that the adsorption arises at homogeneous adsorption sites on 18C6-GO. Therefore, crown ether modified GO may have implications for the treatment of wastewater.

Abstract
Hexavalent chromium is widely used in industrial fields, but its pollution has posed a great threat to the environment due to its high toxicity. We created a chitosan-based microsphere biosorbent (CP) by combining polyethyleneimine with chitosan adopting inverse emulsion polymerization method. Under the optimal conditions (pH = 3), the maximum adsorption capacity of composite microspheres can reach 299.89 mg g-1, which is much higher than that of chitosan microspheres (168.91 mg g-1). When the amount of CP is 0.25 g L-1, the removal rate of 50 mg L-1 Cr(VI) and 50 mg L-1 Eriochrome blue-black R (EBBR) can reach 95% and 99%, respectively. The time required for CP to reach adsorption equilibrium (180 min) was significantly shorter than that of chitosan microspheres (540 min), and the adsorption rate was significantly improved. Langmuir isotherm model, pseudo-second-order kinetic model and thermodynamic calculation results penetrated an endothermic spontaneous, monolayer, and chemical adsorption process. Biomass composite microspheres CP has obvious selectivity and the adsorption capacity retention rate of CP was still 71.32% after four adsorption cycles. This work proposed an easily prepared and biomass-based microspheres for the effective removal of Cr(VI) in printing and dyeing wastewater pollution through adsorption.

Abstract
It is an urgent and onerous task to develop catalysts for photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) in wastewater under wide pH range. In this work, a novel hierarchical Z-scheme MnO2/MnIn2S4 (MISO) heterojunction photocatalyst with MnIn2S4 nanosheets growing on the surface of β-MnO2 nanorods is constructed for efficient photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI). The optimized 2.0-MISO photocatalyst exhibits the almost 100% reduction efficiency in the pH range of 2.1-5.6 under visible light irradiation, and the apparent rate constant is 0.05814 min-1, which is 29.96 and 3.27 times higher than the pure β-MnO2 and MnIn2S4, respectively. A efficient photocatalytic reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) species on 2.0-MISO photocatalyst in actual industry wastewater (286.7 mg/L) up to 99.8% is achieved. Under natural light, the 2.0-MISO photocatalyst also shows rapid reduction of Cr(VI) species. The photocorrosion of MnIn2S4 was significantly hindered by the construction of heterojunction. And the O2- and e- species are the main active species during the Cr(VI) photoreduction process. The connection mode between MnIn2S4 and β-MnO2 is verified by DFT calculations and a possible photocatalytic mechanism is also proposed.

Abstract
A novel adsorbent substrate based on zero-valent iron in activated carbon (Fe(0)@AC) was introduced in this work, and was evaluated as a cheap adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions. The as-prepared Fe(0)@AC material was chemically prepared via NaBH4 reduction in the presence of ferric chloride as an iron source, followed by the addition of powdered activated carbon. The different physicochemical tools confirm the successful preparation of Fe(0) composite with activated carbon as a heterogeneous composite with heterogeneous morphology of the rock-shape structure, which could play a role in the metal adsorption application. Interestingly, the removal efficiency (RE) of Cr(VI) was increased from 52% to 84% due to the Fe(0)@AC adsorbent being changed from 0.2 to 0.4 g/100 mL. Following this, the increase rate was stabilized, and the RE reached 95% in the case of 0.8 g/100 mL from Fe(0)@AC adsorbent. This result could be due to the increase in the sorbent active sites with more contents from Fe(0)@AC. The adsorption model based on the Langmuir approach could successfully describe the experimental outcomes for Cr(VI) removal by Fe(0)@AC with the correlation coefficient of 0.977. To conclude, Fe(0)@AC heterogeneous material is an active adsorbent for Cr(VI) removal from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
The presence of various heavy metal ions in the industrial waste waters has recently been a challenging issue for human health. Since heavy metals are highly soluble in the aquatic environments and they can be absorbed easily by living organisms, their removal is essential from the environmental point of view. Many studies have been devoted to investigating the environmental behaviour of graphene-based nanomaterials as sorbent agents to remove metals from wastewaters arising by galvanic industries. Among the graphene derivates, especially graphene oxide (GO), due to its abundant oxygen functional groups, high specific area and hydrophilicity, is a high-efficient adsorbent for the removal of heavy and precious metals in aquatic environment. This paper reviews the main graphene, GO, functionalized GO and their composites and its applications in the metals removal process. The influencing factors, adsorption capacities and reuse capability are highlighted for the most extensively used heavy metals, including copper, zinc, nickel, chromium, cobalt and precious metals (i.e., gold, silver, platinum, palladium, rhodium, and ruthenium) in the electroplating process.

Abstract
Applications of nanocellulose as a water treatment material are being actively pursued based on its interesting properties, such as renewability, large specific surface area, hydrophilic surface chemistry, and biodegradability. This study used carboxymethyl cellulose nanofibrils (CMCNFs) to prepare a typical bead-type adsorbent with improved structural stability as an actual water treatment restoration material. In addition, a cationized nanocellulose adsorbent was prepared by introducing polyethyleneimine (PEI) on the surface of the CMCNF (P/CMCNF), the removal efficiency of Cr(VI) was evaluated, and its mechanism was elucidated. As a result, the P/CMCNF beads showed an excellent Cr(VI) removal capacity of 1302.3 mg/g, the best result among cellulose-based adsorption materials. Cr(VI) was effectively removed by electrostatic attractions combined with chemical reduction and chelation mechanisms. Furthermore, the macrobead fabrication and PEI surface modification process improved the underwater stability of the P/CMCNF, and it showed excellent reuse efficiency.

Microscopic mechanism about the selective adsorption of Cr(VI) from salt solution on nitrogen-doped carbon aerogel microsphere pyrolysis products. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 798:149331. [PMID: 34333442 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.149331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2021] [Revised: 07/20/2021] [Accepted: 07/24/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
A series of nitrogen-doped carbon aerogels (NCAs) were obtained through phase reaction polymerization and different carbonization temperatures to enhance adsorption efficacy of hexavalent chromium (Cr[VI]) from wastewater significantly. Factors that influence adsorption properties of carbon aerogel microspheres toward Cr(VI), such as pH, adsorbent content, initial Cr(VI) concentrations, and coexisting anion, were investigated. Three isotherm (Langmuir, Freundlich, and Sips) and three kinetic (pseudofirst-order, pseudosecond-order, and Elovich) models were used to interpret the adsorption process. The adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) reached 180.62 mg·g-1, which was superior to that of most aerogel adsorbents. In addition to the adsorption effect, the XPS results also showed that N-containing groups on the NCA surface reduce the adsorbed Cr(VI) to the less toxic Cr(III). The prepared sorbent demonstrates a negligible loss in adsorption capacity after 6 cycles. NCAs show acceptable application prospects in selective removal of Cr(VI) ions.

Abstract
Facile fabrication of the ultra-high-performance adsorbent can effectively ameliorate the Cr(VI)-pollution elimination in sewage control. Herein, a simple synthesis strategy is proposed to tap a versatile chelating resin poly(pyrogallol-tetraethylene pentamine) (PPTA) with respect to Cr(VI) removal from solution. Multiple changing factors which affect the adsorption behavior of PPTA are explored sequentially, such as initial pH, adsorbate concentration, adsorbent dosage, temperature, foreign ions, etc. The microstructure and functional mechanism of synthetic adsorbent are investigated systematically by means of various characterizations including TEM, EDS, FT-IR, XPS, etc. Consequently, the as-prepared PPTA-3 microsphere by reactant ratio of 1: 1 represents a brilliant synergistic adsorption and reduction result for Cr(VI) by the drastic electrostatic interaction of -NH3+ and -OH2+ groups, including satisfactory removal efficiency which closes to 100 % in low concentration, favorable specificity for the influence from coexistent ions (Mo(VI), Mn(VII), Cl-, Cr(III), etc), and passable recyclability. Following the surpassingly fitting with Langmuir isotherm model, its maximum capacity reaches 714.29 mg g-1 at 30 °C. The removal performance is essentially in agreement with the pseudo-second-order kinetics, simultaneously, suffers the rate-limiting impact depending on intra-particle diffusion process. In brief, this newly developed chelating resin presents an effective means with regard to the Cr(VI)-wastewater treatment or other uses in the future.

Abstract
Advanced wastewater treatment processes are required to implement wastewater reuse in agriculture or industry, the efficient removal of targeted priority and emerging organic & inorganic pollutants being compulsory (due to their eco-toxicological and human health effects, bio-accumulative, and degradation characteristics). Various processes such as membrane separations, adsorption, advanced oxidation, filtration, disinfection may be used in combination with one or more conventional treatment stages, but technical and environmental criteria are important to assess their application. Natural and synthetic polyelectrolytes combined with some inorganic materials or other organic or inorganic polymers create new materials (composites) that are currently used in sorption of toxic pollutants. The recent developments on the synthesis and characterization of composites based on polyelectrolytes, divided according to their macroscopic shape-beads, core-shell, gels, nanofibers, membranes-are discussed, and a correlation of their actual structure and properties with the adsorption mechanisms and removal efficiencies of various pollutants in aqueous media (priority and emerging pollutants or other model pollutants) are presented.

Abstract
The influence of alkylphenols to environment cannot be ignored, as they are common product from chemical industries and potential threat to human health. Some alkylphenols are listed as persistent toxic substances (PTS) by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). In this study, the optimized magnetic reduced graphene oxide (MrGO) was synthesized by a facile solvothermal method, and investigated for adsorption of three typical alkylphenols. In neutral condition, MrGO showed extremely high adsorption capacity of three typical alkylphenols, 4-heptylphenol (4-HP), 4-tert-octylphenol (4-OP), and 4-nonylphenol (4-NP), which could reach 938.9 mg g-1 (40 °C), 987.8 mg g-1 (40 °C), and 989.7 mg g-1 (20 °C), respectively. This study revealed that the adsorption process was a heterogeneous multi-layer physical adsorption, and the adsorption rates were related to the number of unoccupied vacancies on the adsorbent surface. From batch experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the main adsorption interactions between MrGO and alkylphenols were deduced to be π-π, hydrogen-bond, and hydrophobic interactions. What's more, the different affinities of MrGO towards different targets were further distinguished and explained in detail. The wonderful stability and recyclability of MrGO made it a promising cost-effective remediation candidate.

Abstract
Developing metal-organic framework (MOF)-based fluorescent probes for efficient detection and discrimination of polluting ions in groundwater is vital for environmental protection and human health. In this paper, we prepared two luminescence-active transition MOFs, namely, Zn-MOF and Cd-MOF, and conducted sensing experiments. The results show that they both exhibit multiple-target detection for Fe3+, Pb2+ and Cr(VI) with high sensitivity, good anti-interference ability and good recyclability even with different frameworks. In addition, Eu3+-incorporated samples, Eu3+@MOFs, with dual-emission have been fabricated via efficient encapsulation of Eu3+ ions into the MOF host. As expected, Eu3+@MOF hybrids also act as multi-target and self-calibrated probes to selectively detect Fe3+ and Cr(VI) ions. However, the quenching efficiencies of the original MOFs towards Fe3+ are higher than those of Eu3+@MOFs. Thus, we could differentiate Fe3+, Pb2+ and Cr(VI) ions by comparing the changes of fluorescence emission between Eu3+@MOFs and the original MOFs. The recognition mechanism may be attributed to the competitive energy absorption between MOFs or Eu3+@MOFs and the analytes.

Abstract
A novel copper-based catalyst supported by a long-chain hydrocarbon stearic acid (Cu x O@C18H36O2) was synthesized by a hydrothermal method and double replacement reactions. The as-prepared catalyst is shown as self-assembled hierarchical nanoflakes with an average size of ∼22 nm and a specific surface area of 51.4 m2 g-1. The catalyst has a good performance on adsorption as well as Fenton-like catalytic degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB). The catalyst (10 mg/L) showed an excellent adsorption efficiency toward RhB (20 mg/L) for pH ranging from 5 to 13, with the highest adsorption rate (99%) exhibited at pH 13. The Fenton-like catalytic degradation reaction of RhB (20 mg/L) by Cu x O@C18H36O2 nanoflakes was effective over a wide range of pH of 3-11, and •OH radicals were generated via Cu2O/H2O2 interactions in acidic conditions and CuO/H2O2 reactions in a neutral solution. The highest efficiency catalytic degradation of RhB (20 mg/L) was 99.2% under acidic conditions (pH = 3, H2O2 = 0.05 M), with an excellent reusability of 96% at the 6th cycle. The results demonstrated that the as-prepared Cu x O@C18H36O2 nanoflakes are an efficient candidate for wastewater treatment, with excellent adsorption capacity and superior Fenton-like catalytic efficiency and stability for RhB.

Abstract
The adsorbents with high adsorption capacity for simultaneously removing Cr(VI) and Hg(II) from aqueous solutions under broad working pH range are highly desirable but still extremely scarce. Here, a novel adsorbent with multidentate ligands was facilely fabricated by covalently bonding 4-amino-3-hydrazino-5-mercapto- 1,2,4-triazole on graphene oxide via the Schiff's base reaction. The maximum adsorption capacities of Cr(VI) and Hg(II) on the current adsorbent were 734.2 and 1091.1 mg/g, which were 14.36 and 5.61 times higher than that of the pure graphene oxide, respectively, exceeding those of most adsorbents previously reported. More interestingly, Cr(VI) and Hg(II) concentrations were decreased from 2 mg/L to 0.0001 mg/L for Hg(II) and 0.004 mg/L for Cr(VI), far below the WHO recommended threshold for drinking water. Moreover, the adsorbent shows an excellent performance for simultaneous removal of Cr(VI) and Hg(II) with more than 99.9% and 98.6% removal efficiencies in aqueous solutions. Finally, the adsorbent was successfully applied in dealing with the real industrial effluent, implying huge potential in industrial application. This work offers a new possibility for the removal of the metallic contaminants by rational designing target groups and ligands.

Abstract
Although the electrochemical production of hydrogen has been considered as a promising strategy to obtain the sustainable resources, the sluggish kinetics of anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) hindered the sustainable energy development. Herein, we design mesoporous cobalt ferrite phosphides hybridized on reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as a highly efficient bifunctional catalyst through a simple nanocasting method. The hybrid catalyst possesses the abundant interface, which provides the large active sites, as well as the hybrid rGO accelerates the electron exchange and ion diffusion. Moreover, the mesoporous structure not only prevents the aggregation of actives sites, but also benefits for the rapid escape of bubbles during catalytical process, which can significantly improve the catalytic performance. Consequently, the resulting mCo0.5Fe0.5P/rGO shows superior catalytic performance with a low overpotential of 250 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 for OER and outstanding long-term stability. More importantly, an electrolyzer with mCo0.5Fe0.5P/rGO as both anode and cathode catalysts shows a low voltage of 1.66 V to afford a current density of 10 mA cm-2. This work offers a new route for designing the highly efficient OER and overall water splitting electrocatalysts.

Abstract
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) is considered to be a potential metal contaminant because of its toxicity and carcinogenicity. In this work, the surface charge density of nickel-iron layered double hydroxide (NiFe LDH) is tuned through iron valence change to improve the performance in adsorption of Cr(VI). The addition of iron divalent in the precursor enhances the surface positivity and reducibility of Fe2+-NiFe LDH, resulting in a nearly 150% Cr(VI) maximum adsorption capacity improvement. The increase of hydroxyl groups and charge density on the surface of NiFe LDH is due to the topological chemical transition from Ni2+-Fe2+ LDH to Ni2+-Fe3+ LDH. The adsorption of Cr(VI) onto Fe2+-NiFe LDH prepared via topochemical approach is highly pH-dependent. The adsorption dynamics and isotherms results may be clearly elucidated by the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm model. Electrostatic attraction, interlayer anion exchange and adsorption-coupled reduction are proven to be the main Cr(VI) removal mechanisms for Fe2+-NiFe LDH. This finding demonstrates that Fe2+-NiFe LDH adsorbents have potential application for efficient removal of Cr(VI) pollutants.

Highly porous copper-supported magnetic nanocatalysts: made of volcanic pumice textured by cellulose and applied for the reduction of nitrobenzene derivatives. RSC Adv 2021; 11:25284-25295.

Abstract
Herein, a novel designed heterogeneous catalytic system constructed of volcanic pumice magnetic particles (VPMPs), cellulose (CLS) as a natural polymeric matrix, and copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) is presented. Also, to enhance the inherent magnetic property of VPMP, iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles have been prepared and incorporated in the structure via an in situ process. As its first and foremost excellent property, the designed composite is in great accordance with green chemistry principles because it contains natural ingredients. Another brilliant point in the architecture of the designed composite is the noticeable porosity of VPMP as the core of the composite structure (surface area: 84.473 m2 g-1). This great porosity leads to the use of a small amount (0.05 g) of the particles for catalytic purposes. However, the main characterization methods, such as Fourier-transform infrared and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and electron microscopy, revealed that the spherical metallic particles (Fe and Cu oxides) were successfully distributed onto the surface of the VPMP and CLS matrices. Further, vibrating-sample magnetometer analysis confirmed the enhancement of the magnetic property (1.5 emu g-1) of the composite through the addition of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. Further, the prepared (Fe3O4@VPMP/CLS-Cu) nanocomposite has been applied to facilitate the reduction reaction of hazardous nitrobenzene derivatives (NBDs) to their aniline analogs, with 98% conversion efficiency in eight minutes under mild conditions. Moreover, the good reusability of the catalytic system has been verified after recycling it ten times without any significant decrease in the performance.

Abstract
In this work, we develop a novel synthetic strategy for wrinkled magnetic composite microspheres (Fe3O4@C). Firstly, hydrophobic oleic acid modified Fe3O4 (OA-Fe3O4) nanoparticles acted as the magnetic component are prepared by synchronous modification coprecipitation method. The macromolecular emulsifier with initiating activity is obtained by means of soap-free emulsion polymerization under the presence of 1,1-diphenylethylene (DPE). Then, interfacial polymerization is employed to synthesis Fe3O4@polymethylglycidyl ester/divinylbenzene composite microspheres (Fe3O4@PGMA/DVB). Fe3O4@C composite microspheres are obtained by vacuum carbonization of the microspheres. The effect of magnetic content on the microwave absorbing properties of Fe3O4@C composite microspheres is explored. The results show that Fe3O4@C composite microspheres exhibit the excellent application performance at the Fe3O4 content of 0.15 g. The reflection loss can reach -53.7 dB at only thickness of 1.7 mm. The Maximum effective absorption bandwidth is up to 5.26 GHz with a thickness of 1.9 mm. The microwave attenuation mechanism of Fe3O4@C composite microspheres is revealed. The excellent absorbing performance is attributed to the enhanced interfacial polarization ability, the surface wrinkled structure and the good synergy between dielectric and magnetic losses. This work provides an effective strategy for the design and preparation of new magnetic composite materials.

Abstract
It is especially significant to design and construct high-performance and stable three-dimensional (3D) bifunctional nanoarchitecture electrocatalysts toward overall water splitting. Herein, we have constructed 3D self-supported phosphorus-doped ruthenium-cobalt nanowires on nickel foams (RuCoP/NF) via a simple hydrothermal reaction followed by a low-temperature phosphating reaction. Doping P can not merely enhance the intrinsic activity of electrocatalysts for overall water splitting but at the same time increase electrochemical surface areas (ECSAs) to expose more accessible active sites. As a 3D bifunctional catalyst, RuCoP/NF demonstrates superior performance for HER (44 mV@10 mA cm-2) and OER (379 mV@50 mA cm-2) in 1.0 M KOH electrolyte solution. The overall water-splitting system was assembled using RuCoP/NF as both anode and cathode. Besides, it exhibits a voltage of 1.533 V at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 and long-term durability within 24 h. P-dopant changes the electron structure of Ru and Co, which is conducive to the formation of Ruδ- and Coδ+, resulting in the adjustment of binding H*/OH* and the improvement of the overall water-splitting reaction kinetics. This work provides a facile method to produce heteroatom-doped and high-performance catalysts for efficient overall water splitting.

Abstract
Herein, a synthetic strategy for a rough microsphere Cr(VI)-adsorbent via the reaction of tannic acid (TA) and 1,6-hexanediamine (HA) and using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as surface modifier was presented. This adsorbent was characterized by a Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer (FTIR), thermogravimetic analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), etc. Certain factors, including contact time, PEG@poly(tannin-1,6-hexanediamine) (PEG@PTHA) dosage, initial concentration, and experimental temperature affecting the Cr(VI) adsorption performance of adsorbent were explored. PEG@PTHA can adsorb Cr and the Cr(VI) was reduced up to Cr(III) due to the existence of phenolic hydroxyl groups. Its adsorption capacity can reach up to 300 mg/g within 10 min and approximately 100% removal percentage below the initial concentration of 100 mg/L. Its behavior matched well with the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model. A PEG@PTHA adsorbent with maximum adsorption capacity (450 mg/g) has great prospects in Cr(VI)-sewage treatment.

Abstract
It is highly desirable but remains extremely challenging to develop a facile strategy to prepare adsorbent for dealing with heavy metal pollution in water. Here, we report a facile approach for preparing sulfydryl-functionalized graphene oxide (S-GO) by cross-linking method with an unprecedented adsorption capacity and ultrahigh selectivity for efficient Hg(II) removal. The adsorbents exhibit a prominent performance in capturing Hg(II) from wastewater with a record-high adsorption capacity of 3490 mg/g and rapid kinetics to reduce Hg(II) contaminants below the discharge standard of drinking water (2 ppb) within 60 min under a wide pH range even in the coexistent of other interfering metal ions. In addition, the adsorbents can be also easily recycled and reused multiple times with no apparent decline in removal efficiency. Considering the broad diversity, we developed also a magnetic Fe3O4/S-GO adsorbent by a simple chemical cross-linking reaction to achieve rapid separation of S-GO from their aqueous solution. In addition, the adsorbents were successfully applied in dealing with the practical industrial wastewater. The results indicate the potential of rationally designed sulfydryl-functionalized graphene oxide for high performance Hg(II) removal.
