Abstract
Lignin-based carbon material can be utilized as carbonaceous adsorbents for the removal of toxic gaseous organic pollutants, while the poor heat-resistance limited its widely application. Here in, B-N co-doped lignin carbon (BN-C) with high thermal stability was synthesized, and the optimized BN-C (1:2) exhibited notably improved heat resistance with the decomposition temperature up to 505 °C, and excellent adsorption capacity for o-dichlorobenzene (o-DCB) (1510.0 mg/g) and toluene (947.3 mg/g), together with good cyclic stability over 10 cycles for o-dichlorobenzene. The existence of abundant hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) with good thermal conductivity contributed to the superior heat-resistance of BN-C (1:2), and the high specific surface area (1764.5 m2/g), enriched hydroxyl functional groups and improved graphitization degree contributed to its enhanced adsorption performance. More importantly, BN-C (1:2) supported Ru could effectively remove o-DCB and toluene at wide temperature range (50-300 °C). The present work guided the development of heat-resistant lignin-derived adsorbent-catalyst for gaseous aromatic pollutants removal, which benefits both environmental protection and resource utilization.

[PMID: 38731612 PMCID: PMC11085801 DOI: 10.3390/molecules29092121] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2024] [Revised: 04/20/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Organic dyes are widely used in many important areas, but they also bring many issues for water pollution. To address the above issues, a reconstructed kaolinite hybrid compound (γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol) was obtained from raw kaolinite (Kaol) in this work. The product was then characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the absorption properties of γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol for congo red were further studied. The results demonstrated that flower-like γ-AlOOH with nanolamellae were uniformly loaded on the surface of acid-treated Kaol with a porous structure (A-Kaol). In addition, the surface area (36.5 m2/g), pore volume (0.146 cm3/g), and pore size (13.0 nm) of γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol were different from those of A-Kaol (127.4 m2/g, 0.127 cm3/g, and 4.28 nm, respectively) and γ-AlOOH (34.1 m2/g, 0.315 cm3/g, and 21.5 nm, respectively). The unique structure could significantly enhance the sorption capacity for congo red, which could exceed 1000 mg/g. The reasons may be ascribed to the abundant groups of -OH, large specific surface area, and porous structure of γ-AlOOH@A-Kaol. This work provides an efficient route for comprehensive utilization and production of Kaol-based compound materials that could be used in the field of environmental conservation.

Abstract
The reuse of waste papers by conversion into valuable carbon materials has received considerable attention for diverse applications such as energy storage and water purification. However, traditional methods for converting waste papers into materials with suitable properties for specific applications are often complex and ineffective, involving consecutive carbonization and activation steps. Herein, we propose a simple one-step microwave (MW)-assisted synthesis for preparing waste paper-derived porous carbons (WPCs) for energy storage and water purification. Through a 30-min synthesis, WPCs with graphitic structure and high specific surface area were successfully produced. The fabricated WPCs exhibited outstanding charge storage capability with a maximum specific capacitance of 237.7 F g-1. Additionally, the WPC demonstrates a high removal efficiency for various dyes, achieving a maximum removal efficiency of 95.0% for methylene blue. The developed one-step MW synthesis not only enables the production of porous carbon from waste paper, but also offers a viable approach to address solid waste management challenges while simultaneously yielding valuable materials.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2024; 31:29497-29512.

Abstract
Using Euryale ferox husk as raw material, pristine biochar (EBC), Bi2MoO6-modified biochar (BM-EBC), and BiFeO3-modified biochar (BF-EBC) were prepared and employed for decontaminating Congo red (CR) from wastewater. Compared with EBC (217.59 mg/g) and BF-EBC (359.49 mg/g), a superior adsorption capacity of 460.77 mg/g was achieved by BM-EBC. Based on the evaluation results of the Freundlich and pseudo-second-order models, multilayer chemisorption was suggested as the adsorption mechanism. The adsorption process of BM-EBC was spontaneous and endothermic, and the rate-limiting step pertained to liquid film diffusion and intraparticle diffusion. The underlying removal mechanism was explored via SEM, BET, FTIR, XPS, Raman spectra, and Zeta potential analyses. The introduction of bismuth oxymetallates with their high number of M-O (M: Bi, Mo, Fe) structural elements provided the adsorbent with enlarged surface areas and reinforced oxygen functional groups, thereby promoting pore filling, π-π interactions, hydrogen bonding, and complexation, leading to enhanced adsorption capacity. These results demonstrate that Euryale ferox husk biochar modified by bismuth oxymetallates has high prospects for valorizing biomass waste and removing CR from wastewater.

Abstract
Converting waste resource into porous carbon toward contaminant capturing is a crucial strategy for realizing "treating waste with waste". Inspired by bread baking process, the soybean meal activated carbon (SAC) with multimodal pore structures was developed via thermally remodeling the pores of waste soybean meal. The obtained SAC-3-800 has ultra-high specific surface area (3536.952 m2/g), as well as a hierarchically porous structure. SAC-3-800 exhibits extremely high adsorption capacity for methylene blue (MB) (3015.59 mg/g), methyl orange (MO) (6486.30 mg/g), and mixed dyes (8475.09 mg/g). The hierarchically porous structure enabled fast adsorption kinetics of SAC-3-800 for MB and MO (∼30 min). Additionally, SAC-3-800 shows excellent dynamic adsorption and regeneration performance, exhibiting great potential for industrial applications. This work showcases a feasible method for synthesizing hierarchically porous carbon with outstanding adsorption performance that can simultaneously achieve efficient treatment of dye-wastewater and value-added utilization of waste resources.

Abstract
Citric acid (CA) is a green and safe food-grade crosslinking agent for starch, but its high crosslinking temperature limits its application. In this study, a "one-step" extrusion modification method based on Ca2+-esterification synergistic crosslinking was proposed for the preparation of high gel performance crosslinked starch at low temperatures (90 °C). The linear and nonlinear rheological properties of crosslinked starch were comprehensively characterized, and the enhancement effect of synergistic crosslinking reactions on starch gel properties was quantitatively studied. The results show that the elastic modulus of the synergistically crosslinked starch (SC-0.5Ca2+, G' = 3116 ± 36) was significantly increased by 879 % compared to the elastic modulus of starch without synergistically crosslinked modification (SC, G' = 318 ± 9). The elastic modulus of starch gels can be adjusted by changing the ion concentration. Nonlinear rheological Lissajous curve analysis results show that the synergistic crosslinked gel system has a stronger anti-deformation ability. In addition, the honeycomb porous structure and smaller pore size distribution of the synergistic crosslinked gels were characterized using scanning SEM. The XPS, FTIR and XRD results suggest that the synergistic crosslinking enhancement effect may involve various molecular forces such as electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bonding and ester bonding.

Abstract
N, S-dual doping graphene aerogels with three dimensional interconnected network and large specific surface area have been fabricated by cellulose nanofibers (CNF), Eucalyptus wood tar-based activated carbon (AC), and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for the energy storage applications as well as the removal of Cr(VI). Benefiting from the particular pore structural characteristics, the optimized activated carbon aerogel electrode (GDAC) exhibited prominent capacitances of 813.8 F/g at 1 A/g, and prominent cycling stability. The Ragone plot for the GDAC supercapacitor depicted that the energy density reached maximum (50 Wh/kg) when the power density was 370 W/kg. As far as the adsorption capacity of GDAC for Cr(VI), GDAC achieved a removal rate of 97 % for Cr(VI) and a maximum adsorption capacity of 939.20 mg/g. The fabrication method and excellent performance of GDAC proposed in this study provided new perspective into the potential application of Eucalyptus wood tar-based materials in the supercapacitor applications. Additionally, the comprehensive analysis of the structure-function relationship also provided important theoretical foundations for the removal of Cr(VI).

Abstract
Crosslinking is a promising method to modulate the gel properties of food-grade starch gels. Still, the poor crosslinking effect of a single type of crosslinker limits the application of this method in starch gel modification. In this study, an Ca2+ synergistic multiple crosslinking modification method was proposed to prepare crosslinked starches with good gel properties and setting. The rheological properties of the samples were tested. The modified sample (SC-Ca-N3, G' = 1347 ± 27) showed a 79% improvement compared to the starch without synergistic crosslinking modification (SC-N, G' = 752 ± 6). The elastic modulus of starch gels can be adjusted by changing the degree of the crosslinking reaction. The results of nonlinear rheological Lissajous curve analysis showed that the synergistically crosslinked gel system strongly resisted deformation. In addition, the microstructure of the modified samples was characterized using scanning electron microscopy. The XPS, FTIR, and XRD results indicated that multiple molecular forces participate in the synergistic crosslinking reaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Porous carbon electrode (PCE) is identified as a highly suitable electrode material for commercial application due to its production process, which is characterized by simplicity, cost-effectiveness and environmental friendliness. PCE was synthesized using torch ginger (Etlingera elatior (Jack) R.M. Smith) leaves as the base material. The leaves were treated with different concentrations of ZnCl2 , resulting in a supercapacitor cell electrode with unique honeycomb-like three-dimensional (3D) morphological pore structure. This PCE comprises nanofibers from lignin content and volatile compounds from aromatic biomass waste. RESULTS From the characterization of physical properties, PCE-0.3 had an impressive amorphous porosity, wettability and 3D honeycomb-like structural morphology with a pore framework consisting of micropores and mesopores. According to the structural advantages of 3D hierarchical pores such as interconnected honeycombs, PCE-0.3 as supercapacitor electrode had a high specific capacitance of up to 285.89 F g-1 at 1 A. Furthermore, the supercapacitor exhibited high energy and power density of 21.54 Wh kg-1 and 161.13 W kg-1 , respectively, with a low internal resistance of 0.059 Ω. CONCLUSION The results indicated that 3D porous carbon materials such as interconnected honeycombs derived from the aromatic biomass of torch ginger leaves have significant potential for the development of sustainable energy storage devices. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
This study focuses on the synthesis of magnetic fly ash composites and its application for the removal of methylene blue (MB) from wastewater. By-product of oil power plants, oil fly ash, was treated with magnetic nanoparticles after chemical surface modification and dubbed modified fly ash (MFA). MFA was characterized by X-ray fluorescence, diffractogram analysis, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and N2 physisorption. MB (methylene blue) was removed from an aqueous solution using the response surface modelling (RSM) technique, which was used for optimization reasons. All four independent factors were investigated to see how they affected the removal process: adsorbent dosage; contact time; pH; and beginning dye concentration. The rate of MB removal was strongly influenced by the pH of the solution. The Langmuir and Freundlich models were used to examine equilibrium data A for MB adsorption onto the MFA in linear and nonlinear forms. Langmuir gave a better fit. The adsorption kinetics shown by increased kinetic statistics were better characterized by a pseudo-second-order MFA model. As far as thermodynamic characteristics go, adsorption is endothermic and occurs spontaneously. It has been proven that MFA may be used as an adsorbent to remove MB dye with high efficiency, and the quadratic model has been proved to be statistically significant.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) sheet-like biochar as promising alternatives to graphene nanosheets has gained significant attention in materials science while being highly restricted by its complicated synthetic steps. In this study, the dimethyl sulfoxide/potassium hydroxide (DMSO/KOH) superbase system was first used to pretreat sweet sorghum residues (SS) and then carbonized to prepare sheet-like biochar. Ascribing to the strong nucleophilicity of DMSO/KOH, a synergistic effect was achieved by partially removing non-cellulosic components in SS and swelling the amorphous region of cellulose, leaving more layered cellulose behind (∼46.5 wt %), which was favorable for the formation of 2D biochar nanosheets with high graphitization degrees (∼93.1%). This strategy was also suitable for other biomass fibers (e.g., straw, wood powders, and nuclear shells) to obtain sheet-like biochar. The resulting sheet-like biochar could be compounded with cellulose nanofibers to achieve the structural design of composites and solve the molding problem of biochar, which was beneficial for dyeing wastewater treatment. Thus, this work provides insight into a simple strategy for developing 2D ultrathin sheet-like biochar from sustainable biomass wastes.

Zhu W, Liu L, Lao Y, He Y. Preparation of porous silica materials using a eucalyptus template method and its efficient adsorption of methylene blue. ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY 2023:1-13. [PMID: 37947794 DOI: 10.1080/09593330.2023.2283082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/05/2023] [Indexed: 11/12/2023]
Abstract
Methylene blue (MB) is a prevalent pollutant in organic wastewater. For this research, eucalyptus wood was used as a template, into which quartz powder dissolved in NaOH was grown, resulting in a low-cost and efficient porous silica adsorbent material (PSAM). This PSAM successfully replaces expensive materials for MB removal from water. Through the application of Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, it became evident that PSAM displays a porous slit pore structure characterized by numerous active sites, leading to an impressive maximum specific surface area of 88.05 m²/g. The central objective of this research was to investigate the impact of experimental temperature, initial dye concentration, and pH on the adsorption process. The adsorption kinetics were analyzed using the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models, as well as the Langmuir model. Remarkably, PSAM exhibited a substantial maximum adsorption capacity of 90.01 mg/g at 293 K, achieving an adsorption rate of over 85% within a mere 10-minute timeframe. The thermodynamic analysis revealed that the adsorption of MB onto PSAM was characterized by spontaneity and accompanied by heat absorption. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) and SEM comparisons of PSAM before and after adsorption indicated that MB adsorption primarily occurred through electrostatic gravitational binding. In comparison to other adsorbents, PSAM exhibited exceptional efficacy in removing MB from water.

Abstract
Here, a Cu2+-doped lignin-based adsorbent (Cu-AL) was fabricated via the amination and Cu2+-doping of industrial alkali lignin for massive and selective adsorption of cationic dyes azure B (AB) and saffron T (ST). The Cu-N coordination structures endowed Cu-AL with stronger electronegativity and higher dispersity. Through the electrostatic attraction, π-π interaction, H-bonding, and Cu2+ coordination, the adsorption capacities of AB and ST reached up to 1168 and 1420 mg g-1, respectively. The pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm model were more relevant to the AB and ST adsorption on Cu-AL. Based on the thermodynamic study, the adsorption progresses were endothermic, spontaneous, and feasible. The Cu-AL maintained high removal efficiency to dyes after 4 reuses (>80%). Importantly, the Cu-AL could efficiently remove and separate AB and ST from dye mixtures even in real time. All the above characteristics demonstrated that Cu-AL was an excellent adsorbent for fast wastewater treatment.

Abstract
To effectively remove methylene blue (MB) from dye wastewater, a novel activated carbon (BAC) was manufactured through co-pyrolysis of bamboo shoot shell and K2FeO4. The activation process was optimized to a temperature of 750 °C and an activation time of 90 min based on its excellent adsorption capacity of 560.94 mg/g with a yield of 10.03%. The physicochemical and adsorption properties of BACs were investigated. The BAC had an ultrahigh specific surface area of 2327.7 cm2/g and abundant active functional groups. The adsorption mechanisms included chemisorption and physisorption. The Freundlich model could be used to describe the isothermal adsorption of MB. The kinetics confirmed that the adsorption of MB belonged to the pseudo-second-order model. Intra-particle diffusion was the main rate-limiting step. The thermodynamic study showed that the adsorption process was endothermic and temperature was beneficial for the improvement of adsorption property. Furthermore, the removal rate of MB was 63.5% after three cycles. The BAC will have great potential for commercial development for purifying dye wastewater.

Abstract
Utilization of kraft lignin to produce bio-based adsorptive material for effective dye adsorption from industrial wastewater is essential to fulfilling the significant environmental protection needs. Lignin is the most abundant byproduct material with a chemical structure containing various functional groups. However, the complicated chemical structure makes it somewhat hydrophobic and incompatible, which limits its direct application as an adsorption material. Chemical modification is a common way to enhance lignin properties. In this work, the kraft lignin was modified through direct amination using Mannich reaction and oxidization followed by amination as new route of lignin modification. The prepared lignins, including aminated lignin (AL), oxidized lignin (OL), and aminated-oxidized lignin (AOL), as well as unmodified kraft lignin, were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), elemental analysis and 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance measurements (1HNMR). The adsorption behaviors of modified lignins for the malachite green in aqueous solution were investigated well and discussed, as well as the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamic equations. Compared with other aminated lignin (AL), the AOL displayed a high adsorption capacity of 99.1 % dye removal, due to its more effective functional groups. The change in structure and functional groups on the lignin molecules during oxidation and amination had no effect on its adsorption mechanisms. The adsorption process of malachite green on different kinds of lignin belongs to endothermic chemical adsorption, which mainly consists of monolayer adsorption. The modification of lignin through oxidation followed by amination process, afforded kraft lignin a broad potential application in the field of wastewater treatment.

Abstract
The development of adsorbents with outstanding adsorption capacities, wide versatility, and excellent recyclability for the removal of organic dyes remains a challenge. In this study, a quaternised chitosan-based aerogel (QCSA) was fabricated via a facile method to effectively treat concomitant anionic dyes. Porous QCSA with high hydrophilicity, nontoxicity, excellent thermal stability, and sustainability exhibits adsorption properties superior to most previously reported adsorbents. The equilibrium adsorption capacities for Congo red, Sunset yellow, and Methyl orange were 1259.6, 550.2, and 607.5 mg/g, respectively. Notably, the spent QCSA exhibits excellent cyclic performance. The multilayer adsorption, external-internal mass transfer resistance, and adsorption on the active site models were employed to enable a more accurate description of the dynamic characteristics, confirming that double-layer chemisorption was the dominant process. A quantitative analysis of the electrostatic potential and the independent gradient model further verified that electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals forces led to the highly efficient adsorption of dye molecules. Therefore, the eco-friendly and recyclable QCSA is a promising adsorbent for trapping anionic dyes from aquatic systems.

Abstract
This study aims to prepare graphene oxide (GO) from raw date seeds (RDSs), considered one of the available agricultural wastes in Saudi Arabia. The preparation method is done by the conversion of date seeds to lignin and then to graphite which is used in a modified Hummer's method to obtain GO. The adsorption of insoluble phenothiazine-derived dye (PTZS) over raw date Seeds (RDSs) as a low-cost adsorbent was investigated in this study. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to characterize (RDSs). According to the calculations, Freundlich isotherms and pseudo-second-order accurately predicted the kinetic rate of adsorption. The adsorption ability was 4.889 mg/g, and the removal rate was 93.98% GO-date Seeds mass, 11 mg/L starting dye concentration, at a temperature of 328 K, pH 9, and contact length of 30 min by boosting the PTZS solution's ionic strength. In addition, the computed free energies revealed that the adsorption process was physical. Thermodynamic calculations revealed that dye adsorption onto GO-date seeds was exothermic and spontaneous.

Abstract
The preparation of heterogeneous Fenton catalysts with both adsorption and catalytic properties has become an effective strategy for the treatment of refractory organic wastewater. In this work, 4A-Fe@Cu bimetallic Fenton catalysts with a three-dimensional core-shell structure were prepared by a simple, template-free, and surfactant-free methodology and used in the adsorption and degradation of Congo red (CR). The results showed that the open three-dimensional network structure and the positive charge of the surface of the 4A-Fe@Cu catalyst could endow a high adsorption capacity for CR, reaching 432.9 mg/g. The good adsorption property of 4A-Fe@Cu for CR not only did not inactivate the catalytic site on 4A-Fe@Cu but also could promote the contact between CR and the active sites on the catalyst surface and accelerate the degradation process. The 4A-Fe@Cu bimetallic catalyst exhibited higher catalytic activity than monometallic 4A@Cu and/or 4A-Fe catalysts due to low work function value. The effects of different pH, H2O2 dosages, and catalyst dosages on the catalytic performance of 4A-Fe@Cu were explored. In the conditions of 7.2 mM H2O2, 2 g/L 4A-Fe@Cu, and 1 g/L CR solution, the degradation ratio of CR by 4A-Fe@Cu could reach 99.2% at pH 8. This strategy provided guidance to the design of high-performance Fenton-like catalysts with both adsorption and catalysis properties for dye wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Although several green methods for the preparation of biomass adsorbents have been proposed, the low adsorption performance of the biomass adsorbents prepared by these methods has limited the development of this technological route. This is the first work that uses an ultrasound-assisted binary solvent system and low temperature ice crystal fixation to achieve high adsorption performance of a biomass sorbent. Chestnut thorns shell (CTS) sorbent with high adsorption performance on MB was successfully prepared with an adsorption performance of 305.81 mg/g, which is on par with most high temperature carbonized adsorbents. Further reaction kinetics, TEM, XPS and FTIR studies showed that the MB adsorption of CTS was through electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bonding, ion-dipole interaction and π-π interaction. After five cycles, the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent remained at a high level. This work provided an effective strategy for safer and greener preparation of high adsorption performance adsorbents from agroforestry waste.

Abstract
Hierarchically porous activated Starbons® derived from starch are found to make excellent adsorbents for methylene blue, even in the presence of other dyes and inorganic salts, highlighting their potential to be used in water purification. The optimal material (S950C90) has a methylene blue adsorption capacity (891 mg g-1) almost nine times higher than that of unactivated S800 and four times higher than that of commercial activated carbon at 298 K. The adsorption of methylene blue onto optimal materials (S950C90 and S800K4) reaches equilibrium within 5 min. Adsorption data for all the adsorbents show a good fit to the Freundlich isotherm which allows the Gibbs free energies of adsorption to be calculated. The adsorption capacities increase as the pH of the methylene blue solution increases, allowing the dye to be desorbed by treatment with acidic ethanol and the Starbon® materials reused. Porosimetry and SEM-EDX imaging indicate that methylene blue adsorbs throughout the surface and completely fills all the micropores in the Starbon® adsorbent. The methylene blue adsorption capacities show excellent correlations with both the BET surface areas and the micropore volumes of the materials.

Advanced wastewater treatment technologies are effective methods and currently attract growing attention, especially in arid and semi-arid areas, for reusing water, reducing water pollution, and explicitly declining, inactivating, or removing SARS-CoV-2. Overall, removing organic matter and micropollutants prior to wastewater reuse is critical, considering that water reclamation can help provide a crop irrigation system and domestic purified water. Advanced wastewater treatment processes are highly recommended for contaminants such as monovalent ions from an abiotic source and SARS-CoV-2 from an abiotic source. This work introduces the fundamental knowledge of various methods in advanced water treatment, including membranes, filtration, Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, ozonation, chlorination, advanced oxidation processes, activated carbon (AC), and algae. Following that, an analysis of each process for organic matter removal and mitigation or prevention of SARS-CoV-2 contamination is discussed. Next, a comprehensive overview of recent advances and breakthroughs is provided for each technology. Finally, the advantages and disadvantages of each method are discussed.

Abstract
Herein, the cork activated carbon (CAC) with excellent adsorption performance for cationic dye, anionic dye, and mixed dye was obtained by a two-step pyrolysis method. The CAC exhibits a fluffy honeycomb structure consisted of porous carbon nanosheets (100-200 nm), ultra-high specific surface area (3402.68 m2/g), and well-developed hierarchical porous structure, which offers a great deal of adsorption sites and transport channels to dye molecules. The adsorption process of all the dyes onto CAC is better described by Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-2nd-order kinetic model. The CAC shows ultra-high adsorption capacity for methylene blue (1283.99 mg/g), rhodamine B (4067.57 mg/g), methyl orange (2666.2 mg/g), and congo red (8920.61 mg/g), with an extremely low equilibrium adsorption time (∼10 min). Collectively, this study demonstrated the potential of converting waste cork into high value-added adsorbent for the efficient purification of dye wastewater.

High-pressure carbon dioxide-hydrothermal enhance yield and methylene blue adsorption performance of banana pseudo-stem activated carbon. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2022; 354:127137.

Abstract
In order to reduce environmental risks and fungus disease spread of banana waste, the high-pressure CO2-hydrothermal treatment was developed to produce hydrochar as a precursor of activated carbon from banana pseudo-stem(BP). SEM, BET, XRD, Raman and FTIR was used to investigate the influence mechanism of the high-pressure CO2-hydrothermal pretreatment on the yield and methylene blue(MB) adsorption capacities of the activated carbon. The results show that although the adsorption capacities of BP after high-pressure CO2-hydrothermal pretreatment(BPx) is decrease due to decrease of oxygen-containing functional group and flatter spatial structure, that of BPx after KOH activation(BPx-A) significantly increase and is higher than that of BP by direct KOH activation(BP-A). Because BP-A presents honeycomb porous microstructures and has a higher mesoporous structure(138-472 m2/g), plentiful active sites and rich the abundant influential adsorption group of MB adsorption. In addition, compared to BP-A(0.68%), the total yield of BPx-A(2.42-9.11%) is 356-1340%.

One-Pot Synthesis of TiO2/Hectorite Composite and Its Photocatalytic Degradation of Methylene Blue. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
TiO2/hectorite composite photocatalysts with different molar ratios of lithium, magnesium, and silicon were synthesized by a one-pot hydrothermal method. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms, and ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-Vis DRS). When the molar ratio of lithium, magnesium, and silicon was 1.32:5.34:8 (TH-2), the composite showed the highest UV photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue (MB). The apparent rate constant of TH-2 was 0.04361 min−1, which was about 3.12 times that of EVONIK Degussa commercial TiO2 of AEROXIDE P25. The improvement of photocatalytic efficiency of the composite was mainly due to its high specific surface area, light trapping ability, and effective separation of electrons (e−) and holes (h+). At the same time, the F element of hectorite is beneficial to the formation of Ti3+ in TiO2, thus enhancing the photocatalytic activity. After five cycles, the removal rate of MB with TH-2 still reached 87.9%, indicating its excellent reusability.

Abstract
Monolithic carbon foams are promising materials for adsorption due to the easy recyclability and without secondary-pollution. However, poor adsorption efficiency for organic pollutants limits its practical application. Hence, this work proposed a novel monolithic porous carbon foam by a facile carbonization approach as freestanding electrodes to remove the organic dyes. The prepared carbon foam derived from waste cigarette filters and zeolitic-imidazolate frameworks-8 with well-developed pores, and the calculated surface area is 1457 m2·g-1, and exhibited an outstanding removal efficiency for methylene blue in aqueous. The maximum adsorption capacity for methylene blue can reach up to 1846.7 mg·g-1 under the applied voltage of -1.2 V. Importantly, as-prepared carbon foams possessed excellent stability, and the removal efficiency can remain above 85% after 5 cycles. Thus, obtained porous carbon foams in this paper as a free standing electrode is expected to be promising materials of adsorbent besides supercapacitors.
