JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 474:134852. [PMID: 38852250 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134852] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2024] [Revised: 05/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
Pharmaceuticals, personal care products (PPCPs), and endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) have seen a recent sustained increase in usage, leading to increasing discharge and accumulation in wastewater. Conventional water treatment and disinfection processes are somewhat limited in effectively addressing this micropollutant issue. Ultrasonication (US), which serves as an advanced oxidation process, is based on the principle of ultrasound irradiation, exposing water to high-frequency waves, inducing thermal decomposition of H2O while using the produced radicals to oxidize and break down dissolved contaminants. This review evaluates research over the past five years on US-based technologies for the effective degradation of EDCs and PPCPs in water and assesses various factors that can influence the removal rate: solution pH, temperature of water, presence of background common ions, natural organic matter, species that serve as promoters and scavengers, and variations in US conditions (e.g., frequency, power density, and reaction type). This review also discusses various types of carbon/non-carbon catalysts, O3 and ultraviolet processes that can further enhance the degradation efficiency of EDCs and PPCPs in combination with US processes. Furthermore, numerous types of EDCs and PPCPs and recent research trends for these organic contaminants are considered.

Abstract
The existence of pollutants, such as toxic organic dye chemicals, in water and wastewater raises concerns as they are inadequately eliminated through conventional water and wastewater treatment methods, including physicochemical and biological processes. Ultrasonic treatment has emerged as an advanced treatment process that has been widely applied to the decomposition of recalcitrant organic contaminants. Ultrasonic treatment has several advantages, including easy operation, sustainability, non-secondary pollutant production, and saving energy. This review examines the elimination of dye chemicals and categorizes them into cationic and anionic dyes based on the existing literature. The objectives include (i) analyzing the primary factors (water quality and ultrasonic conditions) that influence the sonodegradation of dye chemicals and their byproducts during ultrasonication, (ii) assessing the impact of the different sonocatalysts and combined systems (with ozone and ultraviolet) on sonodegradation, and (iii) exploring the characteristics-based removal mechanisms of dyes. In addition, this review proposes areas for future research on ultrasonic treatment of dye chemicals in water and wastewater.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 236:116829.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have drawn much more attention due to their high risk on human health and ecosystem. In this study, the performance of sulfidated nanoscale zero-valent iron (S-nZVI)/periodate (PI) system toward ARB inactivation and ARGs removal was systematically investigated. The S-nZVI/PI system could realize the complete inactivation of 1 × 108 CFU/mL kanamycin, ampicillin, and tetracycline-resistant E. coli HB101 within 40 min, meanwhile, possessed the ability to remove the intracellular ARGs (iARGs) (including aphA, tetA, and tnpA) carried by E. coli HB101. Specifically, the removal of aphA, tetA, and tnpA by S-nZVI/PI system after 40 min reaction was 0.31, 0.47, and 0.39 log10copies/mL, respectively. The reactive species attributed to the E. coli HB101 inactivation were HO• and O2•-, which could cause the destruction of E. coli HB101 morphology and enzyme system (such as superoxide dismutase and catalase), the loss of intracellular substances, and the damage of iARGs. Moreover, the influence of the dosage of PI and S-nZVI, the initial concentration of E. coli HB101, as well as the co-existing substance (such as HCO3-, NO3-, and humic acid (HA)) on the inactivation of E. coli HB101 and its corresponding iARGs removal was also conducted. It was found that the high dosage of PI and S-nZVI and the low concentration of E. coli HB101 could enhance the disinfection performance of S-nZVI/PI system. The presence of HCO3-, NO3-, and HA in S-nZVI/PI system showed inhibiting role on the inactivation of E. coli HB101 and its corresponding iARGs removal. Overall, this study demonstrates the superiority of S-nZVI/PI system toward ARB inactivation and ARGs removal.

Abstract
Treatment of real textile industry effluent using photocatalysis, sonocatalysis, sonophotocatalysis and H2O2 assisted sonophotocatalysis have been studied based on the use of Ce-TiO2 nanocatalyst synthesized using sonochemical co-precipitation method. Characterization studies of the obtained catalyst revealed crystallite size as 1.44 nm with particles having spherical morphology. A shift of the absorption edge to the visible light range was also observed in UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra (UV-DRS) analysis. The effects of different operational parameters viz catalyst dose (0.5 g/L-2 g/L), temperature (30 °C-55 °C) and pH (3-12) on the COD reduction were studied. The reduction in the COD was higher at lower pH and the optimum temperature established was 45 °C. It was also elucidated that the required catalyst dose was lesser in combined sonophotocatalysis when compared with individual photocatalysis and sonocatalysis. Combination of processes and addition of oxidants increased the COD reduction with the sonophotocatalytic oxidation combined with H2O2 treatment showing the best results for COD reduction (84.75%). The highest reduction in COD for photocatalysis was only 45.09% and for sonocatalysis, it was marginally higher at 58.62%. The highest reduction in COD achieved by sonophotocatalysis was 64.41%. Toxicity tests coupled with Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis revealed that there were no additional toxic intermediates added to the system during the treatment. Kinetic study allowed establishing that generalized kinetic model fits the experimental results well. Overall, the combined advanced oxidation processes showed better results than the individual processes with higher COD reduction and lower requirement of the catalyst.

Abstract
Geopolymers have been recently studied as environmentally friendly and low-cost adsorbents especially for the removal of cationic species in wastewater treatment mainly because of their negative surface charge at spontaneous pH conditions. Although there are very few recent studies conducted with different geopolymer composites on anionic dyes, high cost, difficulty of the composite preparation and most importantly the necessity of very low pH values limit their usage. Hence, in this study, a simple and low-cost surface modification with CTAB was applied to a previously prepared fly ash-based geopolymer (GEO) for the removal of anionic Acid Blue 185 (AB185) without the need of strongly acidic conditions. Within this scope, the effects of CTAB dosage (1-5% by weight of GEO), adsorbent dosage (0.5-3.0 g L-1) and initial dye concentration (10-50 mg L-1) were studied as a function of retention time (5-300 min). For 40 min, the removal efficiency of AB185 substantially increased from 0.29 up to 79.36% for the respective GEO and its modified product with 4% CTAB (MGEO4). The efficiency increased with the adsorbent (MGEO4) dosage of up to 2.0 g L-1 at which 89.20% was obtained for 300 min. However, a little decrease was observed down to 81.10% for 3.0 g L-1. The efficiency values of 98.19 and 89.20% were obtained for the initial AB185 concentrations of 10 and 50 mg L-1, respectively. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic model is highly correlated with the experimental results. The high adsorption capacity attained in a very short time suggests that the main mechanism is based on physical adsorption via the electrostatic attraction between MGEO4 and AB185. Overall results have indicated that the CTAB-modified fly ash-based geopolymer can be effectively used for the adsorption of AB185.

Abstract
In this study, ZnCr layered double hydroxide (LDH), ZnCr LDH/carbon nanotube (CNT), and ZnCr LDH/Biochar (BC) were synthesized and characterized by various analyses. The successful synthesis and the great crystallinity of the samples were consented by XRD analysis. SEM and TEM were applied to study the morphology of the synthesized samples. The simultaneous presence of C, Zn, and Cr elements was well confirmed by EDX and dot mapping analyses demonstrating the successful preparation of nanocomposites. According to the BET analysis, ZnCr LDH nanocomposites with BC and CNT had more specific surface area compared to ZnCr LDH alone. The catalytic performances of the samples were determined for the degradation of rifampicin (RF). The degradation efficiency of the sonophotocatalytic process in the presence of 0.6 g L-1 of ZnCr LDH/BC toward 15 mg L-1 of RF under 150 W ultrasound and visible light irradiation was found to be about 100% within 40 min. The influence of the reactive species on the sonophotocatalytic process was assessed via the addition of different scavengers (para-benzoquinone (p-BQ), formic acid (FA), isopropyl alcohol (IPA)), and enhancers (hydrogen peroxide and potassium persulfate). The GC-MS analysis was carried out and eleven by-products during the RF decomposition were detected.

Abstract
Despite extensive studies, the fundamental understanding of synergistic mechanisms between sonolysis and photocatalysis for the abatement of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) remains uncertain. As different phases formed under ultrasound irradiation, hydrophilic POPs, sulfamethoxazole (SMX, Kow: 0.89), predominantly resides in bulk liquid and is ineffectively degraded by sonolysis (kUS = 3.33 × 10-3 min-1) since <10% of hydroxyl radicals (·OH) formed at the gas-liquid interface of cavitation is diffused into the bulk, whereas the other fraction rapidly recombines into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). This study provides a proof-of-concept for the mechanism by presenting various analytical results, endorsing the synergistic role of photoexcited electrons in splitting sonolysis-induced H2O2 into ·OH, particularly in the bulk phase. In a sonophotocatalytic system, the hydrophobic POPs such as bisphenol A (BPA) and atrazine (ATZ) were mainly degraded in gas-liquid interface indicated by the low synergistic values correlation compared to SMX [i.e., SMX has a higher synergistic factor, fsyn (3.26) than BPA (1.30) and ATZ (1.35)]. Also, fsyn was found linearly correlated with the contribution factor of photocatalysis to split H2O2. Three times of consecutive kinetics using an effluent of municipal (MP) wastewater spiked by POPs presented >98% POPs and >96% total organic carbon (TOC) removal.

Evaluation of Sonocatalytic and Photocatalytic Processes Efficiency for Degradation of Humic Compounds Using Synthesized Transition-Metal-Doped ZnO Nanoparticles in Aqueous Solution. J CHEM-NY 2021.

Abstract
The existence of a humic substance in water causes the growth of microorganisms and reduces the quality of water; therefore, the removal of these materials is crucial. Here, the ZnO nanoparticles doped using transition metals, copper (Cu) and manganese (Mn), were used as an effective catalyst for photocatalytic removal of humic substances in an aqueous environment under ultraviolet, visible light, and light-emitting diode irradiations. Also, we study the effect of the sonocatalytic method. A solvothermal procedure is used for doping, and the Cu- and Mn-doped ZnO nanocatalyst were characterized by means of FTIR, XRD, AFM, SEM, and EDAX analyses. We investigate the effect of operational variables, including doping ratio, initial pH, catalyst dose, initial HS content, and illuminance on the removal efficiency of the processes. The findings of the analyses used for the characterization of the nanoparticles illustrate the appropriate synthesis of the Cu- and Mn-doped ZnO nanocatalysts. We observe the highest removal efficiency rate under acidic conditions and the process efficiency decreased with increasing solution pH, when we tested it in the range of 3–7. Photocatalytic decomposition of HS increases with a rise in catalyst dose, but an increase in initial HS content results in decreasing the removal efficiency. We observe the highest photocatalytic degradation of humic acid while using the visible light, and the highest removal efficiency is obtained using Cu.ZnO. The Cu.ZnO also shows better performance under ultraviolet irradiation compared to other agents.

Abstract
A new organic-inorganic nanohybrid compound, ([Cu{(HOCH2CH2)2NCS2}2]3[PMo12O40] (1)), has been prepared by sonochemical technique using copper(II) dithiocarbamate complex and a Keggin-type polyoxomolybdate in this research. FT-IR, XRD, FE-SEM, TEM, EDX, UV-Vis, TGA, BET, and single crystal XRD analyses were applied to describe the properties of the composition of the nanohybrid. Compound (1) is composed of [PMo12O40]3- building blocks and [Cu{(HOCH2CH2)2NCS2}2]1+ cationic moieties, and electrostatic forces and substantial hydrogen-bonding interactions were applied to pack them; and consequently, a three dimensional supramolecular framework was made based on single-crystal X-ray diffraction patterns. FE-SEM and TEM images approved the morphology of the nanohybrid sample to be extremely penetrable. Very good sonocatalytic performance is shown by this supramolecular nanohybrid in the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB), which is a cationic organic dye. The results showed complete degradation of cationic RhB (25 mg/L) within 70 min with the rate constant of 0.039min-1 in the presence of nanohybrid (1) and H2O2 (4 mmol/L). Also, sonocatalytic activity of the nanohybrid (1) was higher than H3PMo12O40, showing that the combining Cu(DEDTC)2 complex with H3PMo12O40 could be an excellent choice to improve its sonocatalytic activity. The used nanohybrid (1) can be recycled after easily removing from the reaction media by centrifuging, and there was no considerable loss of catalytic activity and retention of the structure.

Abstract
A novel approach toward the production of multifunctional printed technical textiles is reported. Three different metal oxides nanoparticles including titanium dioxide, magnesium oxide, and zinc oxide were prepared and characterized. Both natural wool and synthetic acrylic fibers were pretreated with the prepared metal oxide nanoparticles followed by printing using polylactic acid based paste containing acid or basic dyestuffs. Another route was applied via post-treatment of the targeted fabrics with the metal oxide nanoparticles after running the printing process. The color strength (K/S) and colorfastness properties of pretreated and post-treated printed fabrics were evaluated and compared with untreated printed fabrics. The presence of nanoparticles on a fabric surface during the coating process was found to significantly increase the color strength value of the coated textile substrates. The increased K/S value depended mainly on the nature and concentration of the applied metal oxide, as well as the nature of colorant and fabric. In addition, the applied metal oxide nanoparticles imparted the printed fabrics with good antibacterial activity, high ultraviolet protection, photocatalytic self-cleaning, and improved colorfastness properties. Those results suggest that the applied metal oxide-based nanoparticles could introduce ideal multifunctional prints for garments.

Abstract
This study reports the successful synthesis of Fe-Cu layered double hydroxide (Fe-Cu-LDH) /biochar (BC) nanocomposite by a hydrothermal method. The sonocatalytic performance of Fe-Cu-LDH/BC nanocomposite was investigated for the degradation of cefazolin sodium (CFZ), as a model emerging contaminant, from the solution. The physico-chemical properties of the synthesized samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) analyses. The best sonocatalytic efficiency of 97.6% was achieved by using 1.0 g/L sonocatalyst, 0.1 mM CFZ, and an ultrasonic power of 300 W at pH = 6.5 (natural) within 80 min. Additionally, the effects of the addition of various oxidants, dissolved gases, and organic and inorganic scavengers on the degradation of CFZ were studied. Moreover, the possible sonocatalytic mechanism of the sonochemical degradation of CFZ in the presence of Fe-Cu-LDH/BC sonocatalyst was proposed based on the results of GC-MS analysis. The mineralization of CFZ solution was evaluated using COD and IC analyses. Finally, the reusability test of Fe-Cu-LDH/BC nanocomposite in the CFZ degradation revealed that almost 9% drop occurred after five successive cycles.

Abstract
In this research, a novel magnetic sonocatalyst nanocomposite, CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y zeolite, has been successfully fabricated employing a simple hydrothermal method. The as-prepared catalyst was thoroughly identified using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), EDS elemental dot-mapping, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and nitrogen Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (N2-BET) analyses. The procured CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y nanocomposite was then assessed for the decomposition of three types of organic dyes namely methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RhB) and methyl orange (MO) from water solution using ultrasound irradiation and subsequently monitored via UV-Vis absorption technique. The sonodecomposition reactions of organic dyes were accomplished in the presence of the H2O2 solution as a green oxidizing agent. Furthermore, the influence of various experimental independent factors such as irradiation time, process type, initial dye concentration, catalyst dosage, H2O2 concentration, scavenger type, and catalyst regeneration on the decomposition of MB, RhB and MO were surveyed. Additionally, a first order kinetic model was applied to investigate the sonodecomposition reactions of dye contaminants. The rate constant (k) and half-life (t1/2) data were gained as 0.0675 min−1 and 10.2666 min, respectively, for the decomposition of MB in the US/H2O2/CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y system. Besides, evaluating the attained results, the distinctive performance of ˙OH as the radical scavenger originating from H2O2 throughout the sonodecomposition process is vividly approved. A novel magnetically separable CoFe2O4@Cr-MIL-101/Y zeolite ternary nanocomposite was prepared and applied as a sonocatalyst for efficient degradation of organic contaminants.![]()

Abstract
Contamination of water resources by refractory organic pollutants is of great environmental and health concern because these compounds are not degraded in the conventional wastewater treatment plants. In recent years, sonocatalytic treatment has been considered as a promising advanced oxidation technique for the acceptable degradation and mineralization of the recalcitrant organic compounds. For this purpose, various sonocatalysts have been utilized in order to accelerate the degradation process. The present review paper provides a summary of published studies on the sonocatalytic degradation of various organic pollutants based on the application of carbon-based catalysts, including carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene (GR), graphene oxide (GO), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), activated carbon (AC), biochar (BC), graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4), carbon doped materials, buckminsterfullerene (C60) and mesoporous carbon. The mechanism of sonocatalytic degradation of different organic compounds by the carbon-based sonocatalysts has been well assessed based on the literature. Moreover, the details of experimental conditions such as sonocatalyst dosage, solute concentration, ultrasound power, applied frequency, initial pH and reaction time related to each study have also been discussed in this review. Finally, concluding remarks as well as future challenges in this research field regarding new areas of study are also discussed and recommended.

Abstract
In this study, the potential application of sequential Electrocoagulation + Fenton (F) or Photo-Fenton (PF) + Active carbon adsorption (EC + F/PF + AC) processes were analyzed as alternatives for the treatment of an industrial textile wastewater resulting from an industrial facility located in Medellín (Colombia). In order to maximize the organic matter degradation, each step of the treatment was optimized using the Response Surface Methodology. At first, the optimal performance of EC was achieved with Fe electrodes operating at pH = 7, jEC = 10 mA/cm2 and 60 rpm, during 10 min of electrolysis. At these conditions, EC let to remove 94% of the dye's color, 56% of the COD and 54% of the TOC. Next, sequentially applied Fenton or photo-Fenton process (i.e., EC + F/PF), operating at the optimized conditions (pH = 4.3, [Fe2+] = 1.1 mM, [H2O2] = 9.7 mM, stirring velocity = 100 rpm and reaction time = 60 min.), improved the quality of the treated effluent. The EC + F let to achieve total color reduction, as well as COD and TOC removals of 72 and 75%, respectively. The EC + PF reached 100% of color, 76% of COD and 78% of TOC reductions. The EC + F/PF processes were more efficient than EC in elimination of low molecular weight (<5 kDa) compounds from wastewater. Moreover, the BOD5/COD ratio increased from 0.21 to 0.42 and from 0.21 to 0.46 using EC + F and EC + PF processes, respectively. However, EC + F/PF were not fully effective for the removal of acute toxicity to Artemia salina: 20% and 60% of reduction in toxicity using EC + F and EC + PF, respectively, comparing to very toxic (100%) raw textile wastewater. Thus, activated carbon adsorption was applied as an additional step to complete the treatment. After AC adsorption, the acute toxicity decreased to 10% and 0% using EC + F and EC + PF, respectively. The total operational costs, including chemical reagents, electrodes, energy consumption and sludge disposal, were of 1.65 USD/m3 and 2.3 USD/m3 for EC + F and EC + PF, respectively.

Abstract
In this study, a series of oxygen-rich bismuth oxychloride Bi12O17Cl2 samples were prepared at different calcination temperatures and characterized by X-ray diffraction patterns, UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra, scanning electron microscope, X-ray energy dispersion spectroscope, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The calcination temperature greatly affected microstructures and band structures of as-prepared samples, further influencing sonocatalytic degradation efficiencies over dye Rhodamine B. Some dependant factors such as ultrasonic power, catalyst dosage, pH value, initial concentration of Rhodamine B, and reaction temperature were systematically investigated and the robust sample Bi12O17Cl2-550 with a favorable microstructure and band structure provided the best sonocatalytic removal efficiency around 90% at the optimal condition. Based upon reactive species entrapping and hydroxyl radical detection experiments, a primary sonocatalysis mechanism was eventually speculated.

Abstract
Sonocatalysis fascinates to utilize mechanical energy that universally exists in the environment. A big problem for the practical application of sonocatalysts is the incapability of recyclability, which is necessary for resource saving and secondary pollution control. In this work, Bi7Fe2.75Co0.25Ti3O21 was firstly explored as a new sonocatalyst with magnetic recyclability. The magnetic catalysts can be easily collected with a magnetic bar after sonocatalytic reactions, and the structure and efficiency were kept after being recycled. Since the mechanism of sonocatalysis under ultrasonic vibration is still not fully understood, experiments including samples with different polarization and morphology, under different frequencies and intensities of ultrasonic radiation were conducted. The results suggested that the sonocatalytic efficiency was in proportion to polarization instead of morphology and a possible mechanism of squeezed model was proposed.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to employ martite nanoparticles synthesized through planetary ball milling instead of conventional sources of iron for the activation of Oxone in order to decompose tetracycline (TC) antibiotic in the aquatic phase. Accordingly, martite nanoparticles-activated Oxone exhibited a remarkable improvement in degrading TC molecules up to 87%. The results indicated an increased decomposition rate of TC with increasing Oxone concentration, martite nanoparticles dosage, and initial pH. In the absence of ultrasound, the decomposition rate of TC was 0.0481 min-1 within 30 min, while the implementation of ultrasound at 320 W and addition of hydrogen peroxide at 40 mM led to increase in the decomposition rate up to 0.0770 and 0.0907 min-1, respectively. The presence of carbonate and even persulfate ions suppressed the decomposition rate. Inversely, the addition of chloride and carbon tetrachloride enhanced the reactor performance in terms of TC degradation. Within four consecutive experimental runs, only 10.8% was dropped in the decomposition rate, indicating the appropriate reusability potential of martite nanoparticles. The results confirmed the appropriate ability of the treatment process in degrading and mineralizing the target pollutant but a longer exposure time is required for an efficient mineralization.

Abstract
In the present investigation, the treatment of amoxicillin (AMX)-polluted water by the activated persulfate (PS) was considered. As a novel research, continuously electro-generated magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles (CEMNPs) were utilized as the activator of PS in an electrochemical medium. The PS/CEMNPs displayed a remarkable enhancement in the decomposition of AMX molecules up to 72.6% compared with lonely PS (24.8%) and CEMNPs (13.4%). On the basis of pseudo-first order reaction rate constants, the synergy percent of about 70% was achieved due to the combination of PS with CEMNPs. The adverse influence of free radical-scavenging compounds on the efficiency of the PS/CEMNPs process was in the following order: carbonate < chloride < tert-butyl alcohol < ethanol. Overall, these results proved the main role of free radical species in degrading AMX. The implementation of ultrasound (US) enhanced the performance of the PS/CEMNPs process. Nevertheless, the highest degradation efficiency of about 94% was achieved when UV254 lamp was joined the PS/CEMNPs system. Under UV254 and US irradiation, the results showed significant potential of the PS/CEMNPs process for degrading AMX antibiotic and generating low toxic effluent based on the activated sludge inhibition test. However, more time is needed to achieve the acceptable mineralization.

Abstract
This research investigated the removal of carbamazepine (CBZ) and diclofenac (DCF) in water using ultrasonic (US) treatment in the absence or presence of graphene oxides (GOs). Three frequencies and three pH conditions were tested (28, 580, and 1000 kHz and 3.5, 7, and 9.5, respectively). Regarding the effects of US frequency and pH, 580 kHz and pH 3.5 were more effective at removing CBZ and DCF (>86% for CBZ and >92% for DCF) than 1000/28 kHz and pH 7/9.5 within 60 min. However, sonocatalytic removal was enhanced in the presence of GOs; more than 99% CBZ and DCF removal was achieved at 580 kHz and pH 3.5 within 40 min. The sonicated GOs were more stable at 28 kHz than at higher frequencies of 580 and 10,00 kHz. The adsorption of CBZ and DCF has increased when GOs were sonicated at 28 kHz (44% and 61%, respectively) compared with 580 kHz (34% and 52%, respectively) and 1000 kHz (18% and 39%, respectively). The negative charges of GOs increased at 28 kHz (-105.1 mV), however, it decreased at higher frequencies such as 580 kHz (-71.5 mV) and 1000 kHz (-58.6 mV), which led to increased electrostatic repulsion that increased the stability of the GO particles in water. The overall enhancement in CBZ and DCF removal was due to an increase in cavitational bubbles, which in turn led to increased production of OH• and enhanced adsorption due to dispersion (resulting from US irradiation), which caused an increase in active adsorption sites of the GOs.

Abstract
In the present work, the sonocatalytic degradation of sodium isopropyl xanthate (SIPX) was investigated in the presence of Cu2S nanoparticles. Cu2S nanoparticles were produced by means of a high-energy planetary mechanical ball milling method within the processing times of 0.5, 1.5, 3 and 4.5 h. The physical and chemical characteristics of Cu2S particles were studied before and after ball milling process using various analytical techniques, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscope (SEM) coupled Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and nanoparticles size distribution (NSD). The XRD pattern of the samples confirmed the presence of tetragonal and cubic crystalline phases of Cu2S. In addition, the results of SEM and NSD analysis showed that the increase in the ball milling time from 0.5 to 4.5 h notably decreased the size of nanoparticles to the range of 20-40 nm. Furthermore, AAS result showed that the concentration of Cu+ ions was much lower than that of the accepted value in the aqueous media (0.009 mg/L) after 60 min of the sonocatalysis. The study on the effects of the main key parameters showed that 93.99% of SIPX (10 mg/L) was removed during 60 min of the sonocatalytic process under the optimum conditions: pH of 7.3, Cu2S concentration of 1.5 g/L, and ultrasonic power of 150 W. The sonocatalytic degradation mechanism was thoroughly examined in the presence of different organic and inorganic scavenger compounds, including ethanol, EDTA, NaCl and Na2SO4. The obtained results confirmed OH and holes (h+) as the dominant oxidizing species in Cu2S catalyzed sonolysis. In order to get the benefits of the integrated sonocatalytic process, different rate enhancing compounds were introduced into the system. For the first time, the S2O82- and Cu2S catalyzed sonolysis (US/Cu2S/S2O82-) system was introduced as an efficient and novel sonocatalytic system for fast degradation of SIPX. Moreover, the phyto-toxicological assessments proved the reduction in the toxicity of the sonocatalytic-treated SIPX solution by increase in the reaction time, from 20 to 60 min.

Abstract
Pure WO3 powder was prepared from a simple method and applied into sonocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B (RhB), the model compound. The structure and properties of samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. We studied the effects of WO3 on the sonocatalytic degradation of RhB and the operational parameters such as catalyst dosage and RhB concentration. The experimental results showed that the best sonocatalytic degradation ratio (59.39%) of organic dyes could be obtained when the optimal conditions of 10.00-mg/L initial concentration, 3.00-g/L prepared WO3 powder added amount, 99-W ultrasound output power, and 270-min ultrasonic irradiation were adopted. Under ultrasonic conditions, the degradation rate after addition of WO3 reached the highest activity of 57.9%, and about three times the rate of degradation was not added. Abundant ·OH was induced by WO3 powder under ultrasonic irradiation, which may be the main contributor to the high sonodegradation rate.

Abstract
The main aim of the present investigation was the treatment of ibuprofen (IBP)-polluted aquatic phase using a novel oxygen-permeable cathode (OPC)-equipped electrochemical process (ECP) integrated with ultrasound (US). According to kinetic modeling, the decomposition rate of IBP by the integrated process was 3.2 × 10-2 min-1 which was significant in comparison with the OPC-equipped ECP (1.4 × 10-2 min-1) and US alone (2.4 × 10-3 min-1). Increasing the current resulted in the enhanced generation of H2O2 and consequently, improved the degradation of IBP in the solution. Excessive concentrations of Na2SO4 as supporting electrolyte led to no significant enhancement in the reactor efficiency. At initial IBP concentration of 1 mg L-1, complete removal of IBP with reaction rate of 1.7 × 10-1 min-1 was happened within a short reaction time of 30 min. The pulse mode of US led to more than 10% increase in the removal efficiency compared with the normal mode. The presence of scavenging compound of methanol caused the highest drop in the efficiency of the integrated treatment process, indicating the substantial role of free hydroxyl radicals in the degradation of IBP. Intermediate byproducts generated in the solution during the decomposition were also identified and interpreted.

Abstract
The kinetics of ultrasonic-assisted magnesium oxide (MgO) hydration was investigated in the present paper. The degree of hydration at different temperature (298-338K) and reaction time (0.25-3h) was determined by thermal gravity analysis (TGA). And the products of the hydration were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR) and Particle Size Distribution analysis (PSD). A coupling model based on characteristic equations for chemical reaction control and inward diffusion control was employed to describe the hydration process. The experimental data indicated that the degree of hydration at 2h under ultrasound reaction condition was 18-25% higher than that of mechanical stirring reaction condition. However, the value was nearly the same at the first hour. Combined with the analysis results of degree of hydration, characterization of products and model fitting, the hydration process was supposed to be a mixed model, which controlled by both chemical reaction and inward diffusion. A reaction mechanism emphasized on the physical effect of ultrasound was proposed, assuming that the hydration product layer was broken and regenerated during the process. The calculated activation energy of 24.2kJmol-1 corroborated the mechanism proposed in this study.

Abstract
We examined the feasibility of using two types of fly ash (an industrial waste from thermal power plants) as a low-cost catalyst to enhance the ultrasonic (US) degradation of ibuprofen (IBP) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX). Two fly ashes, Belews Creek fly ash (BFA), from a power station in North Carolina, and Wateree Station fly ash (WFA), from a power station in South Carolina, were used. The results showed that >99% removal of IBP and SMX was achieved within 30 and 60min of sonication, respectively, at 580kHz and pH 3.5. Furthermore, the removal of IBP and SMX achieved, in terms of frequency, was in the order 580kHz>1000kHz>28kHz, and in terms of pH, was in the order of pH 3.5>pH 7>pH 9.5. WFA showed significant enhancement in the removal of IBP and SMX, which reached >99% removal within 20 and 50min, respectively, at 580kHz and pH 3.5. This was presumably because WFA contains more silicon dioxide than BFA, which can enhance the formation of OH radicals during sonication. Additionally, WFA has finer particles than BFA, which can increase the adsorption capacity in removing IBP and SMX. The sonocatalytic degradation of IBP and SMX fitted pseudo first-order rate kinetics and the synergistic indices of all the reactions were determined to compare the efficiency of the fly ashes. Overall, the findings have showed that WFA combined with US has potential for treating organic pollutants, such as IBP and SMX, in water and wastewater.

Abstract
Magnetic CoFe2O4@ZnS core-shell nanocomposite was successfully synthesized via one-step hydrothermal decomposition of zinc(II) diethanoldithiocarbamate complex over CoFe2O4 nanoparticles at low temperature of 200°C. The obtained nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, magnetic measurements, and Brunauere-Emmette-Teller. The results confirmed the formation of CoFe2O4@ZnS nanocomposite with the average crystallite size of 18nm. The band gap of 3.4eV was obtained using UV-vis absorption of CoFe2O4@ZnS nanocomposite, which made it a suitable candidate for sono-/photo catalytic processes. This nanocomposite was applied as a novel sonocatalyst for the degradation of organic pollutants under ultrasound irradiation. The results showed complete degradation of methylene blue (MB) (25mg/L) within 70min in the presence of CoFe2O4@ZnS nanocomposite and H2O2 (4mM). The trapping experiments indicated that OH radicals are the main active species in dye degradation. In addition, sonocatalytic activity of the CoFe2O4@ZnS nanocomposite was higher than those of pure ZnS and CoFe2O4, showing that the combining ZnS with magnetic CoFe2O4 could be an excellent choice to improve its sonocatalytic activity. The nanocomposite could be magnetically separated and reused without any observable change in its structure and performance even after five consecutive runs.

Ultrasound-assisted Fenton process using siderite nanoparticles prepared via planetary ball milling for removal of reactive yellow 81 in aqueous phase. ULTRASONICS SONOCHEMISTRY 2017; 35:210-218.

Abstract
Nano-sized siderite was used as catalyst for the heterogeneous Fenton process combined with ultrasonic irradiation to degrade reactive yellow 81 (RY-81) in the aqueous phase. As the most efficient process, nano-sized siderite prepared via ball milling was chosen to carry out the experiments. 6h milled siderite at initial pH of 3.0 led to the highest removal efficiency of 92.09% within the reaction time of 30min. At a short reaction time of 20min, increasing siderite nanoparticles dosage from 0.3 to 0.75g/L resulted in increasing removal efficiency from 49.82 to 79.86%, respectively, while further increase in the dosage caused a substantial decrease in the efficiency. In the case of the effect of solute concentration, increasing the dye up to 400mg/L led to a significant decrease in the removal efficiency (65.77%). The presence of 0.01M Na2CO3 and C2H5OH significantly diminished the decolorization efficiency of RY-81 (<10%) with initial concentration of 100mg/L. The intermediates produced during the treatment process were also identified using GC-MS analysis. This research suggested that ball milled siderite is a potential catalyst for the efficient decolorization of textile effluents via ultrasound-assisted Fenton process.

Abstract
This study was performed to assess the efficiency of silica nanopowder (SNP)/milk vetch-derived charcoal (MVDC) nanocomposite coupled with the ultrasonic irradiation named sono-adsorption process for treating water-contained Basic Red 46 (BR46) dye. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were performed for the characterization of as-prepared adsorbent. The sono-assisted adsorption process was optimized using response surface optimization on the basis of central composite design by the application of quadratic model. Accordingly, the color removal can be retained more than 93% by an initial BR46 concentration of 8 mg/L, sonication time of 31 min, adsorbent dosage of 1.2 g/L and initial pH of 9. The pseudo-second order kinetic model described the sono-assisted adsorption of BR46 reasonably well (R2 > 0.99). The intra-particular diffusion kinetic model pointed out that the sono-assisted adsorption of BR46 onto SNP/MVDC nanocomposite was diffusion controlled as well as that ultrasonication enhanced the diffusion rate.

Abstract
The scope of this study was the use of bentonite as the carrier of ZnO nanoparticles for enhancing the sonocatalytic decolorization of Basic Red 46 (BR46) in the aqueous phase. The results demonstrated the higher sonocatalytic activity of bentonite-supported ZnO nanoparticles (BSZNs) in comparison with the suspended ZnO nanoparticles (SZNs). The particle size of BSZNs (5-40 nm) was lower than that of SZNs (20-120 nm). Due to the immobilization of ZnO nanoparticles, a specific surface area of 80.6 m(2)/g was obtained for the BSZNs, which was higher than the specific surface area of the raw bentonite (42.2 m(2)/g). Optimization of the process via response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design (CCD) showed the maximum sonocatalytic decolorization efficiency (%) of 89.92% in which the initial dye concentration, the ZnO/bentonite ratio, the sonocatalyst dosage, and the initial pH were 6 mg/L, 0.3, 2.5 g/L and 9, respectively. The byproducts generated during the sonocatalysis of BR46 over BSZNs were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. From an application viewpoint, the sonocatalysis of real textile wastewater resulted in a COD removal efficiency (%) of about 44% within a reaction time of 150 min.

Abstract
The improvement of sonocatalytic treatment of real textile wastewater in the presence of MgO nanoparticles was the main goal of the present study. According to our preliminary results, the application of pulse mode of sonication, together with the addition of periodate ions, produced the greatest sonocatalytic activity and consequently, the highest chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency (73.95%) among all the assessed options. In the following, pulsed sonocatalysis of real textile wastewater in the presence of periodate ions was evaluated response surface methodologically on the basis of central composite design. Accordingly, a high correlation coefficient of 0.95 was attained for the applied statistical strategy to optimize the process. As results, a pulsed sonication time of 141min, MgO dosage of 2.4g/L, solution temperature of 314K and periodate concentration of 0.11M gave the maximum COD removal of about 85%. Under aforementioned operational conditions, the removal of total organic carbon (TOC) was obtained to be 63.34% with the reaction rate constant of 7.1×10(-3)min(-1) based on the pseudo-first order kinetic model (R(2)=0.99). Overall, periodate-assisted pulsed sonocatalysis over MgO nanoparticles can be applied as an efficient alternative process for treating and mineralizing real textile wastewater with good reusability potential.
