Sci Rep 2024; 14:530. [PMID: 38177240 PMCID: PMC10766997 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-49972-8] [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: 08/01/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Over the past decade, CdS QDs have become versatile semiconductors. Surface modification of CdS QDs has become an interesting case study, as it can eliminate surface defects and improve their photochemical properties. In this study, we report a new strategy of using carbon quantum dots containing a large number of thiol groups (CQDs-SH) as a passivating agent for the stabilization of CdS quantum dots (QDs). Various characterization techniques have clearly revealed that the CdS QDs have been successfully passivated by CQDs-SH. The photocatalytic performance of CQDs-SH/CdS QDs was investigated for the degradation of the insecticide imidacloprid from an aqueous solution. Parameters affecting the photodegradation process, including the light source, photocatalyst amount, initial concentration of the pollutant, radiation time, pH, oxidizing agent, and temperature, were investigated. Furthermore, the HPLC technique was applied to quantitatively analyze imidacloprid and its degradation products. The results of the HPLC analysis revealed that under simulated visible light at pH 9, imidacloprid scarcely existed after 90 min of irradiation (90.13% degradation). The LC-MS method was also used to detect the degradation products and investigate the mechanism of photodegradation of the pesticide. The results showed that the CQDs-SH/CdS QDs composite was a promising photocatalyst for the degradation of imidacloprid in wastewater.

Bhende RS, Dafale NA. Insights into the ubiquity, persistence and microbial intervention of imidacloprid. Arch Microbiol 2023; 205:215. [PMID: 37129684 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-023-03516-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/23/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Imidacloprid, a neonicotinoid pesticide, is employed to increase crop productivity. Meanwhile, its indiscriminate application severely affects the non-target organisms and the environment. As an eco-friendly and economically workable option, the microbial intervention has garnered much attention. This review concisely outlines the toxicity, long-term environmental repercussions, degradation kinetics, biochemical pathways, and interplay of genes implicated in imidacloprid remediation. The studies have highlighted imidacloprid residue persistence in the environment for up to 3000 days. In view of high persistence, effective intervention is highly required. Bacteria-mediated degradation has been established as a viable approach with Bacillus spp. being among the most efficient at 30 ℃ and pH 7. Further, a comparative metagenomic investigation reveals dominant neonicotinoid degradation genes in agriculture compared to forest soils with distinctive microbial communities. Functional metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids, and lipids demonstrated a significantly superior relative abundance in forest soil, implying its quality and fertility. The CPM, CYP4C71v2, CYP4C72, and CYP6AY3v2 genes that synthesize cyt p450 monooxygenase enzyme play a leading role in imidacloprid degradation. In the future, a systems biology approach incorporating integrated kinetics should be utilized to come up with innovative strategies for moderating the adverse effects of imidacloprid on the environment.

Study of Photocatalytic Oxidation of Micropollutants in Water and Intensification Case Study. Catalysts 2022.

Abstract
During the last decades, heterogenous photocatalysis has shown as the most promising advanced oxidation process for the removal of micropollutants due to degradation rate, sustainability, non-toxicity, and low-cost. Synergistic interaction of light irradiation, photocatalysts, and highly reactive species are used to break down pollutants toward inert products. Even though titanium dioxide (TiO2) is the most researched photocatalyst, to overcome shortcomings, various modifications have been made to intensify photocatalytic activity in visible spectra range among which is modification with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Therefore, photocatalytic oxidation and its intensification by photocatalyst’s modification was studied on the example of four micropollutants (diclofenac, DF; imidacloprid, IMI; 1-H benzotriazole, BT; methylene blue, MB) degradation. Compound parabolic collector (CPC) reactor was used as, nowadays, it has been considered the state-of-the-art system due to its usage of both direct and diffuse solar radiation and quantum efficiency. A commercially available TiO2 P25 and nanocomposite of TiO2 and MWCNT were immobilized on a glass fiber mesh by sol-gel method. Full-spectra solar lamps with appropriate UVB and UVA irradiation levels were used in all experiments. Photocatalytic degradation of DF, IMI, BT, and MB by immobilized TiO2 and TiO2/CNT photocatalysts was achieved. Mathematical modelling which included mass transfer and photon absorption was applied and intrinsic reaction rate constants were estimated: kDF=3.56 × 10−10s−1W−0.5m1.5, kIMI=8.90 × 10−11s−1W−0.5m1.5, kBT=1.20 × 10−9s−1W−0.5m1.5, kMB=1.62 × 10−10s−1W−0.5m1.5. Intensification of photocatalysis by TiO2/CNT was observed for DF, IMI, and MB, while that was not the case for BT. The developed model can be effectively applied for different irradiation conditions which makes it extremely versatile and adaptable when predicting the degradation extents throughout the year using sunlight as the energy source at any location.

Abstract
Pesticide pollution is a major issue, given their intensive use in the 20th century, which led to their accumulation in the environment. At the international level, strict regulations are imposed on the use of pesticides, simultaneously with the increasing interest of researchers from all over the world to find methods of neutralizing them. Photocatalytic degradation is an intensively studied method to be applied for the degradation of pesticides, especially through the use of solar energy. The mechanisms of photocatalysis are studied and implemented in pilot and semi-pilot installations on experimental platforms, in order to be able to make this method more efficient and to identify the equipment that can achieve the photodegradation of pesticides with the highest possible yields. This paper proposes a brief review of the impact of pesticides on the environment and some techniques for their degradation, with the main emphasis on different photoreactor configurations, using slurry or immobilized photocatalysts. This review highlights the efforts of researchers to harmonize the main elements of photocatalysis: choice of the photocatalyst, and the way of photocatalyst integration within photoreaction configuration, in order to make the transfer of momentum, mass, and energy as efficient as possible for optimal excitation of the photocatalyst.

Abstract
Pesticides have been frequently used in agricultural fields. Due to the expeditious utilization of pesticides, their excessive usage has negative impacts on the natural environment and human health. This review discusses the successful implications of nanotechnology-based photocatalysis for the removal of environmental pesticide contaminants. Notably, various nanomaterials, including TiO2, ZnO, Fe2O3, nanoscale zero-valent iron, nanocomposite-based materials, have been proposed and have played a progressively essential role in wastewater treatment. In addition, a detailed review of the crucial reaction condition factors, including water matrix, pH, light source, temperature, flow rate (retention time), initial concentration of pesticides, a dosage of photocatalyst, and radical scavengers, is also highlighted. Additionally, the degradation pathway of pesticide mineralization is also elucidated. Finally, the challenges of technologies and the future of nanotechnology-based photocatalysis toward the photo-degradation of pesticides are thoroughly discussed. It is expected that those innovative extraordinary photocatalysts will significantly enhance the performance of pesticides degradation in the coming years.

Abstract
In this work, the application of high-power LED365nm and commercial, low-price LED398nm for heterogeneous photocatalysis with TiO2 and ZnO photocatalysts are studied and compared, focusing on the effect of light intensity, photon energy, quantum yield, electrical energy consumption, and effect of matrices and inorganic components on radical formation. Coumarin (COU) and its hydroxylated product (7-HC) were used to investigate operating parameters on the •OH formation rate. In addition to COU, two neonicotinoids, imidacloprid and thiacloprid, were also used to study the effect of various LEDs, matrices, and inorganic ions. The transformation of COU was slower for LED398nm than for LED365nm, but r07-HC/r0COU ratio was significantly higher for LED398nm. The COU mineralization rate was the same for both photocatalysts using LED365nm, but a significant difference was observed using LED398nm. The impact of matrices and their main inorganic components Cl- and HCO3- were significantly different for ZnO and TiO2. The negative effect of HCO3- was evident, however, in the case of high-power LED365nm and TiO2, and the formation of CO3•- almost doubled the r07-HC and contributes to the conversion of neonicotinoids by altering the product distribution and mineralization rate.

Abstract
In present study, a simple, effective and rapid green method using leaf extract of Melia azedarach was explored for the synthesis of Cu-ZnO nano heterojunction particles. The leaf extract of Melia azedarach acts as a reducing agent and prevents the agglomeration of nanoparticles. Different standard analytical techniques were used to study the morphology and size of synthesized nanocomposite. The efficiency of the synthesized material was tested as a photocatalyst for the degradation of simulated wastewater having chlorpyriphos pesticide. The different factors have been investigated such as pH of the solution, catalyst dosage and conact time. Approximately, 81% of chlorpyrifos was degraded after 240 min of solar illumination. The generation of hydroxyl radicals at the catalysts surface owing to photo-irradiation contributed to the chlorpyrifos degradation. The maximum photo-degradation (91%) of pesticides was observed at 6.0 pH. The pathway for the degradation of chlorpyriphos has been checked by LC-MS and this hinting the absence of any harmfull side product. The COD removal and TOC was found to be 32.4% and 28.5%, respectively. The photodegradation of chlorpyriphos using Cu-ZnO nanocomposite was followed the pseudo-first-order kinetic with higher value of regressiuon coefficient (0.99).

Abstract
The present study focused on exploring the potential of Ag-ZnO composites for complete mineralization of imidacloprid with the aim to sustain the pollutant free safe water supply. The composites were prepared by hydrothermal method and characterized by Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Energy dispersive X-ray crystallography (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and band gap measurements. These composites were used to study the UV irradiated degradation of imidacloprid while optimizing the process parameters such as time of UV irradiation, pH of medium, pesticide concentration and composite loading. The results of the study revealed an increase in photodegradation of imidacloprid by Ag-ZnO composites than pure ZnO. Temperature and catalyst loading had a positive effect on degradation efficiency, while an inverse relation was observed between pesticide concentration and degradation. Moreover, no harmful degradation products of imidacloprid were observed in GC-MS analyses that confirmed its complete mineralization.
