Abstract
Mercury pollution poses a global health threat due to its high toxicity, especially in seafood where it accumulates through various pathways. Developing effective and affordable technologies for mercury removal from water is crucial. Adsorption stands out as a promising method, but creating low-cost materials with high selectivity and capacity for mercury adsorption is challenging. Here we show a sustainable method to synthesize low-cost sulfhydrylated cellulose with ethylene sulfide functionalities bonded glucose units. Thiol-functionalized cellulose exhibits exceptional adsorption capacity (1325 mg g-1) and selectivity for Hg(II) over other heavy metals (Co, Cu, Zn, Pb) and common cations (Ca++, Mg++) found in natural waters. It performs efficiently across a wide pH range and different aqueous matrices, including wastewater, and can be regenerated and reused multiple times without significant loss of performance. This approach offers a promising solution for addressing mercury contamination in water sources.

Abstract
Functionalized magnetic nanocomposites were considered as promising adsorbents owing to their abundant functional groups and ease of separation properties. Herein, we combined the solvothermal method with molecular copolymerization to synthesize a salicylaldoxime-grafted magnetic polydopamine (SMP) core-shell hybrid and exploited it for Cu(II) adsorption. The physicochemical properties of SMP were comprehensively studied by SEM, TEM, XRD, FT-IR, TGA, XPS, and VSM measurements. The results manifested that polydopamine acts as a bridge connecting magnetic iron oxide and salicylaldoxime to fabricated core-shell hybrids with rich functional groups. The batch experimental results showed that the Cu(II) adsorption was consumingly pH-reliant behavior, while adsorption data fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isothermal model well, and the adsorption process achieved equilibrium within 60 min. Moreover, SMP exhibited remarkable anti-interference and can be recycled for 5 times with an inconspicuous decrease in adsorption performance. Importantly, salicylaldoxime functionalization endowed SMP with maximum Cu(II) adsorption capacity of 141.24 mg/g at pH 6.0 and 25 °C as compared with pure MP. Based on FT-IR and XPS study, the main adsorption mechanisms were proposed with a synergistic effect including a strong chemical chelation and partial Cu(II) reduction. Importantly, this strategy can be extended to multifunctional magnetic composites for Cu-contaminated wastewater cleanup.

Abstract
Adsorbents consisting of spherical nanoparticles exhibit superior adsorption performance and hence, have immense potential for various applications. In this study, a tri-aldehyde spherical nanoadsorbent premodification platform (CTNAP), which can be grafted with various amino acids, was synthesized from corn stalk. Subsequently, two all-biomass spherical nanoadsorbents, namely, cellulose/l-lysine (CTNAP-Lys) and cellulose/L-cysteine (CTNAP-Cys), were prepared. The morphologies as well as chemical and crystal structures of the two adsorbents were studied in detail. Notably, the synthesized adsorbents exhibited two important characteristics, namely, a spherical nanoparticle morphology and cellulose II crystal structure, which significantly enhanced their adsorption performance. The mechanism of the adsorption of Cr(VI) onto CTNAP-Lys and that of Cu(II) onto CTNAP-Cys were studied in detail, and the adsorption capacities were determined to be as high as 361.69 (Cr(VI)) and 252.38 mg/g (Cu(II)). Using the proposed strategy, it should be possible to prepare other all-biomass cellulose/amino acid spherical nanomaterials with high functional group density for adsorption, medical, catalytic, analytical chemistry, corrosion, and photochromic applications.

Abstract
Emerging technologies or advanced materials which can simultaneously adsorb and detect highly toxic Cr(VI) are urgently in demand for environmental remediation. Herein, we have designed and synthesized a functional polyarylene ether with aromatic main chain and pendent carboxyl groups along with amidoxime group that can be coordinated with different metal ions. Thanks to its versatile activation of the lanthanide ions' inherent fluorescence and good processability, the fluorescent nanofiber membranes with competitive Cr(VI) adsorption and detection performance have been fabricated via one-step electrospinning of mixed solution containing synthesized polymer and terbium salt. More specifically, the optimized nanofiber membrane exhibits a maximal Cr(VI) adsorption of 278.2 mg/g and specific detection for hexavalent chromium down to 11.76 nM. More importantly, the prepared fluorescent nanofiber membranes can be easily re-generated and re-used for both Cr(VI) adsorption and detection for five times. Given the unique advantages of easy fabrication, competitive dual functionalities as well as good reusability of electrospun fluorescent nanofiber membranes, the present work basically opens up new insight in the design of multifunctional recyclable material for the remediation of heavy metal pollution.

Abstract
The growing shortage of non-renewable resources and the burden of toxic pollutants in water have gradually become stumbling blocks in the path of sustainable human development. To this end, there has been great interest in finding renewable and environmentally friendly materials to promote environmental sustainability and combat harmful pollutants in wastewater. Of the many options, lignocellulose, as an abundant, biocompatible and renewable material, is the most attractive candidate for water remediation due to the unique physical and chemical properties of its constituents. Herein, we review the latest research advances in lignocellulose-based adsorbents, focusing on lignocellulosic composition, material modification, application of adsorbents. The modification and preparation methods of lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose and their applications in the treatment of diverse contaminated water are systematically and comprehensively presented. Also, the detailed description of the adsorption model, the adsorption mechanism and the adsorbent regeneration technique provides an excellent reference for understanding the underlying adsorption mechanism and the adsorbent recycling. Finally, the challenges and limitations of lignocellulosic adsorbents are evaluated from a practical application perspective, and future developments in the related field are discussed. In summary, this review offers rational insights to develop lignocellulose-based environmentally-friendly reactive materials for the removal of hazardous aquatic contaminants.

Abstract
Alkaline water electrolysis (AWE) is considered a promising technology for green hydrogen (H2 ) production. Conventional diaphragm-type porous membranes have a high risk of explosion owing to their high gas crossover, while nonporous anion exchange membranes lack mechanical and thermochemical stability, limiting their practical application. Herein, a thin film composite (TFC) membrane is proposed as a new category of AWE membranes. The TFC membrane consists of an ultrathin quaternary ammonium (QA) selective layer formed via Menshutkin reaction-based interfacial polymerization on a porous polyethylene (PE) support. The dense, alkaline-stable, and highly anion-conductive QA layer prevents gas crossover while promoting anion transport. The PE support reinforces the mechanical and thermochemical properties, while its highly porous and thin structure reduces mass transport resistance across the TFC membrane. Consequently, the TFC membrane exhibits unprecedentedly high AWE performance (1.16 A cm-2 at 1.8 V) using nonprecious group metal electrodes with a potassium hydroxide (25 wt%) aqueous solution at 80 °C, significantly outperforming commercial and other lab-made AWE membranes. Moreover, the TFC membrane demonstrates remarkably low gas crossover, long-term stability, and stack cell operability, thereby ensuring its commercial viability for green H2 production. This strategy provides an advanced material platform for energy and environmental applications.

Abstract
Heavy metals are a notable pollutant in aquatic ecosystems that results in many deadly diseases of the human body after enrichment through the food chain. As an environmentally friendly renewable resource, nanocellulose can be competitive with other materials at removing heavy metal ions due to its large specific surface area, high mechanical strength, biocompatibility and low cost. In this review, the research status of modified nanocellulose for heavy metal adsorbents is primarily reviewed. Two primary forms of nanocellulose are cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and cellulose nanofibers (CNFs). The preparation process of nanocellulose was derived from natural plants, and the preparation process included noncellulosic constituent removal and extraction of nanocellulose. Focusing on heavy metal adsorption, the modification of nanocellulose was explored in depth, including direct modification methods, surface grafting modification methods based on free radical polymerization and physical activation. The adsorption principles of nanocellulose-based adsorbents when removing heavy metals are analyzed in detail. This review may further facilitate the application of the modified nanocellulose in the field of heavy metal removal.

Abstract
There is a growing interest in advanced materials that can effectively treat wastewater contaminated with radioactive cesium (137Cs), which is an extremely hazardous material. Here, we report a new class of Cs-adsorptive membranes compactly assembled with Cs-adsorptive Prussian blue (PB) particles. The PB particle assembly was formed via an in-situ interfacial reaction between two PB precursors in the presence of tannic acid (TA) as a binder on a porous support. While the interfacial reaction enabled the formation of a defect-less PB network, TA enhanced the PB-PB and PB-support compatibilities, consequently producing a uniform, densely packed PB assembly near the support surface. The fabricated TA-assisted PB membrane (PB/TA-M) synergistically rejected Cs via a combination of adsorption and membrane filtration, although adsorption predominantly determined Cs rejection initially. Hence, the PB/TA-M membrane showed considerably higher Cs removal performance than commercial nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) polyamide (PA) membranes for a sufficiently long operation time. Furthermore, the PB/TA-M membrane displayed excellent radioactive 137Cs removal performance, significantly exceeding those of commercial NF and RO PA membranes due to its higher radiation stability, indicating its viability for application in treating actual radioactive wastewater.

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
In this work, a novel alkali lignin-based adsorption material, alkali lignin-based poly(tetraethylene pentamine-pyrogallol) (AL-PTAP), was prepared using a Mannich reaction and catechol-amine reaction for removal of Cr(vi). It was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The effects of tetraethylene pentamine (TEPA) dosage, pyrogallol (PL) dosage, contact time, pH, temperature and other factors on the adsorption behavior of the adsorbent were systematically investigated. These experimental data show that the adsorption behavior conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity is 769.2 mg g-1 at 303 K, which is much higher than that of alkali lignin (AL). AL-PTAP can achieve a removal rate of almost 100% for Cr(vi) solutions with a concentration of less than 90 mg L-1 at 1 min. Furthermore, the toxic Cr(vi) is partly reduced to nontoxic Cr(iii) during the adsorption process. Therefore, AL-PTAP is a fast and efficient alkali lignin-based adsorbent, which is expected to improve the utilization value of alkali lignin in Cr(vi) wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Given the large amount of toxic Cr(VI) wastewater from various industries, it is urgent to take effective treatment measures. Adsorption has been regarded as highly desirable for Cr(VI) removal, but the effectiveness of most adsorbents is significantly dependent on pH value, in which precipitous performance drop and even structural collapse generally occur in strong acidic/alkaline aqueous. Thus, maintaining high adsorption performance and structural integrity over a wide pH range is challenging. To efficiently remove Cr(VI), we designed and prepared of an acid-base resistant metal-organic framework (MOF) Zr-BDPO, by introducing weak acid-base groups (-NH-, -N= and -OH) onto the ligand. Zr-BDPO achieved a maximum adsorption capacity of 555.6 mg·g-1 and retained skeletal structure at pH= 1-11. Interestingly, all these groups can generate conjugate acid-base pairs by means of H+ and OH- in the external solution and then form buffer layer. The removal of Cr(VI) at a broad range of pH values primarily via hydrogen bonds between -NH- and -OH, and the oxoanion species of Cr(VI) is unusual. This strategy that insulating high concentrations of acids and bases and relying on hydrogen bonds to capture Cr(VI) oxoanions provides a new perspective for actual Cr(VI) wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have brought great changes to human society, and development has gradually shifted the focus to environmentally friendly applications. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are new one-dimensional nanomaterials that exhibit environmental friendliness and ensure the biological safety of water environment. CNCs have excellent physical and chemical properties, such as simple preparation process, nanoscale size, high specific surface area, high mechanical strength, good biocompatibility, high hydrophilicity and antifouling ability. Because of these characteristics, CNCs are widely used in ultrafiltration membranes, nanofiltration membranes and reverse osmosis membranes to solve the problems hindering development of membrane technology, such as insufficient interception and separation efficiency, low mechanical strength and poor antifouling performance. This review summarizes recent developments and uses of CNCs in water treatment membranes and discusses the challenges and development prospects of CNCs materials from the perspectives of ecological safety and human health by comparing them with traditional one-dimensional nanomaterials.

Abstract
The world is going through a colossal drinking water scarcity. Unchecked discharge (even at trace levels) of Cr (VI) from industries into water bodies is a serious environmental concern. Here, we report waste fungal biomass (WFB) for the detoxification and removal of chromium ions. Biomass understudy was collected from Calocybe indica fruiting bodies. WFB was used after drying and pretreatment with two distinctive chemical methods, which improved the remediation effectiveness of Cr (VI). Light microscope and Field emission Scanning microscope (FESEM) were employed to elucidate the surface morphology of waste fungal biomass. While Fourier-Transform Infrared-Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray analysis (EDAX) were deployed to explore the mechanism of interaction between Cr (VI) anion and waste fungal biomass. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analyses demonstrated considerable conversion of Cr (VI) into nontoxic Cr (III) species. The most favorable condition for optimum Cr (VI) remediation of 99.66% by treated waste fungal biomass (TWFB) occurred at pH 3, contact time 10 min, adsorbent dosage 3 gL-1, Cr (VI) concentration 4 mgL-1, stirring speed 140 rpm, and temperature 320 K, where for untreated waste fungal biomass (UWFB) the optimum of 85% remediation occurred at a contact time 15 min, and adsorbent dosage 2 gL-1 whereas other experimental conditions remained identical as TWFB biosorbent. Pseudo-second-order kinetics (R2 > 0.99) model matched the adsorption rate. And, the Freundlich isotherm model (R2 > 0.99) is shown to be a better match for the experimental data. The optimum amount of Cr (VI) adsorbed by the TWFB and UWFB were 205.8 ± 10.1 and 72.85 ± 2.36 mgg-1, respectively. Thermodynamic parameters revealed that the adsorption was spontaneous (ΔG ˂ 0), endothermic (ΔH > 0), and entropy-driven (ΔS > 0). The generated WFB adsorbent also has significant recycling potential. After five cycles of regeneration and adsorption. It can still keep up good remediation effectiveness of Cr (VI) ions to 85.5.

Abstract
The manganese is successfully induced as a "bridge joint" to fabricate a new adsorbent (CNC-Mn-PEI) connecting cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) respectively. It was used to remove As (III) from waste water. It has been proved that the incompact CNC and PEI were successfully connected by Mn ions, which induced the formation of O-Mn-O bonds and the removal efficiency is maintained in the broad pH range of 4-8, even with the influence of NO3- and CO32-. The CNC-Mn-PEI was characterized by Brunauer-Emmett-Telley (BET) method and the results showed that the nanoparticle of the specific surface area was 106.5753 m2/g, it has a significant improvement, compared with CNC-Mn-DW (0.1918 m2/g). The isotherm and kinetic parameters of arsenic removal on CNC-Mn-PEI were well-fitted by the Langmuir and pseudo-second-order models. The maximum adsorption capacities toward As (III) was 78.02 mg/g. After seven regeneration cycles, the removal of As (III) by the adsorbent decreased from 80.78% to 68.2%. Additionally, the hypothetical adsorption mechanism of "bridge joint" effect was established by FTIR and XPS, which provided the three activated sites from CNC-Mn-PEI can improve the arsenic removal efficiency, and providing a new stratagem for the arsenic pollution treatment.

Abstract
Based on the premise that aqueous anions of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) are capable of electrostatic interaction with cationic and polar active sites, acid-washed Madacamia nutshell biomass was sequentially treated with diethylenetriamine (DETA) and maleic anhydride (MA) to graft poly(diethylenetriamine-co-maleic anhydride). By displaying a new peak at 1685 cm-1 ascribed to amide CO stretching vibrations, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy highlighted the formation of amide groups through reaction of DETA with carboxyl groups on the biomass surface. Scanning electron microscopic images of the MA-modified biomass displayed polymeric growths attributed to copolymerization of DETA with MA. The polar and ionizable amide and amine groups of the grafted copolymer endowed the adsorbent with Cr(VI) removal capabilities over a wide pH range demonstrated by removal efficiencies between 70.9% and 81.7% in the pH 1.6 to pH 10.0 range for the treatment of 20 mL solutions containing 100 mg L-1 Cr(VI) with 200 mg of adsorbent. Conformity of the adsorption isotherm data to the Freundlich model revealed the heterogeneous nature of the adsorbent surface, which comprised a variety of functional groups capable of interaction with Cr(VI) species in solution. The Sips isotherm model provided the best fit to the equilibrium experimental data, and the adsorption capacity was 779.1 mg g-1 at pH 1.6, room temperature and an adsorbent dosage of 5.0 g L-1. The findings indicate that Cr(VI) adsorption onto diethylenetriamine and maleic anhydride modified Madacamia nutshell biomass is a promising option for Cr(VI) removal from aqueous solutions.

Abstract
Globally, developing countries require access to safe drinking water to support human health and facilitate long-term sustainable development, in which waste management and control are critical tasks. As the most plentiful, renewable biopolymer on earth, cellulose has significant utility in the delivery of potable water for human consumption. Herein, recent developments in the application of nanoscale cellulose and cellulose derivatives for water treatment are reviewed, with reference to the properties and structure of the material. The potential application of nanocellulose as a primary component for water treatment is linked to its high aspect ratio, high surface area, and the high number of hydroxyl groups available for molecular interaction with heavy metals, dyes, oil-water separation, and other chemical impurities. The ability of superhydrophobic nanocellulose-based textiles as functional fabrics is particularly acknowledged as designed structures for advanced water treatment systems. This review covers the adsorption of heavy metals and chemical impurities like dyes, oil-water separation, as well as nanocellulose and nanostructured derivative membranes, and superhydrophobic coatings, suitable for adsorbing chemical and biological pollutants, including microorganisms.

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.

Abstract
In the present study, supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) was utilized as a waterless pulping for the isolation of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from waste cotton cloths (WCCs). The isolation of CNCs from the scCO2-treated WCCs’ fiber was carried out using sulphuric acid hydrolysis. The morphological and physicochemical properties analyses showed that the CNCs isolated from the WCCs had a rod-like structure, porous surface, were crystalline, and had a length of 100.03 ± 1.15 nm and a width of 7.92 ± 0.53 nm. Moreover, CNCs isolated from WCCs had a large specific surface area and a negative surface area with uniform nano-size particles. The CNCs isolated from WCCs were utilized as an adsorbent for the hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] removal from aqueous solution with varying parameters, such as treatment time, adsorbent doses, pH, and temperature. It was found that the CNCs isolated from the WCCs were a bio-sorbent for the Cr(VI) removal. The maximum Cr(VI) removal was determined to be 96.97% at pH 2, 1.5 g/L of adsorbent doses, the temperature of 60 °C, and the treatment time of 30 min. The adsorption behavior of CNCs for Cr(VI) removal was determined using isothermal, kinetics, and thermodynamics properties analyses. The findings of the present study revealed that CNCs isolated from the WCCs could be utilized as a bio-sorbent for Cr(VI) removal.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution generated by urban and industrial activities has become a major global concern due to its high toxicity, minimal biodegradability, and persistence in the food chain. These are the severe pollutants that have the potential to harm humans and the environment as a whole. Mercury, chromium, copper, zinc, cadmium, lead, and nickel are the most often discharged hazardous heavy metals. Nanocellulose, reminiscent of many other sustainable nanostructured materials, is gaining popularity for application in bioremediation technologies owing to its many unique features and potentials. The adsorption of heavy metals from wastewaters is greatly improved when cellulose dimension is reduced to nanometric levels. For instance, the adsorption efficiency of Cr3+ and Cr6+ is found to be 42.02% and 5.79% respectively using microcellulose, while nanocellulose adsorbed 62.40% of Cr3+ ions and 5.98% of Cr6+ ions from contaminated water. These nanomaterials are promising in terms of their ease and low cost of regeneration. This review addresses the relevance of nanocellulose as biosorbent, scaffold, and membrane in various heavy metal bioremediation, as well as provides insights into the challenges, future prospects, and updates. The methods of designing better nanocellulose biosorbents to improve adsorption efficiency according to contaminant types are focused.

Abstract
Various toxic chemicals are discharging to the environment due to rapid industrialization and polluting soil, water, and air causing numerous diseases including life-threatening cancer. Among these pollutants, Cr(VI) or hexavalent chromium is one of the most carcinogenic and toxic contaminants hostile to human health and other living things. Therefore, along with other contaminants, the removal of Cr(VI) efficiently is very crucial to keep our environment neat and clean. On the other hand, silica has a lot of room to modify its surfaces as it is available with various sizes, shapes, pore sizes, surface areas etc. and the surface silanol groups are susceptible to design and prepare adsorbents for Cr(VI). This review emphases on the progress in the development of different types of silica-based adsorbents by modifying the surfaces of silica and their application for the removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater. Toxicity of Cr(VI), different silica surface modification processes, and removal techniques are also highlighted. The adsorption capacities of the surface-modified silica materials with other parameters are discussed extensively to understand how to select the best condition, silica and modifiers to achieve optimum removal performance. The adsorption mechanisms of various adsorbents are also discussed. Finally, future prospects are summarized and some suggestions are given to enhance the adsorption capacities of the surface-modified silica materials.

Abstract
Cellulose-based materials have been advanced technologies that used in water remediation. They exhibit several advantages being the most abundant biopolymer in nature, high biocompatibility, and contain several functional groups. Cellulose can be prepared in several derivatives including nanomaterials such as cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs), and TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical)-mediated oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNF). The presence of functional groups such as carboxylic and hydroxyls groups can be modified or grafted with organic moieties offering extra functional groups customizing for specific applications. These functional groups ensure the capability of cellulose biopolymers to be modified with nanoparticles such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), graphene oxide (GO), silver (Ag) nanoparticles, and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles. Thus, they can be applied for water remediation via removing water pollutants including heavy metal ions, organic dyes, drugs, and microbial species. Cellulose-based materials can be also used for removing microorganisms being active as membranes or antibacterial agents. They can proceed into various forms such as membranes, sheets, papers, foams, aerogels, and filters. This review summarized the applications of cellulose-based materials for water remediation via methods such as adsorption, catalysis, and antifouling. The high performance of cellulose-based materials as well as their simple processing methods ensure the high potential for water remediation.

Abstract
Due to its lethal effect on the human body and other creatures, Cr(VI) ions have attained widespread public attention, and an effective adsorbent for removing Cr(VI) ions is vital. Chitosan (CS)/cellulose nanocrystals grafted with carbon dots (CNCD) composite hydrogel with strong sorption ability and sensitive detection ability for Cr(VI) was formed. The cellulose nanocrystals (CN) offered a natural skeleton for assembling 3D porous structures, and then improved the sorption ability for Cr(VI); moreover, carbon dots (CD) acted as a fluorescent probe for Cr(VI) and provided Cr(VI) adsorption sites. With a maximum adsorption capacity of 217.8 mg/g, the CS/CNCD composite hydrogel exhibited efficient adsorption properties. Meanwhile, with a detection limit of 0.04 μg/L, this hydrogel was used for selective and quantitative detection of Cr(VI). The determination of Cr(VI) was based on the inner filter effect (IFE) and static quenching. This hydrogel retained its effective adsorption ability even after four repeated regenerations. Furthermore, the economic feasibility of the CS/CNCD composite hydrogel over activated carbon was confirmed using cost analysis. This study provided one new method for producing low-cost adsorbents with effective sorption and sensitive detection for Cr(VI).

Abstract
Wastewater management has significant interest worldwide to establish viable treatment techniques to ensure the availability of clean water. The specialities of nanocellulose for this particular application is due to their high aspect ratio and accessibility of plenty of -OH groups for binding with dyes, heavy metals and other pollutants. This review aggregates the application of nanocellulose for wastewater treatment particularly as adsorbents of dyes and heavy metals, and also as membranes for filtering various other contaminants including microbes. The membrane technologies are proven to be effective relating to their durability and separation effectiveness. The commercial scale application of nanocellulose based materials in water treatment processes depend on various factors like routes of synthesis, surface modifications, hydrophilic/hydrophobic, porosity, durability etc. The recent developments on production of novel adsorbents or membranes encourage the implementation of nanocellulose based cleaner technologies for wastewater treatment.

Abstract
A novel graphene oxide-dicationic ionic liquid composite (GO-DIL) was prepared by modifying graphene oxide (GO) with a dicationic ionic liquid (DIL), 3,3'-(butane-1,4-diyl) bis (1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium) chloride ([C4(MIM)2]Cl2). GO and GO-DIL were characterized by SEM, BET, FTIR, and XPS, and the materials were used for Cr(VI) adsorption. Batch adsorption studies showed that adsorption reached equilibrium within 40 min, and the optimal pH was 3, where the electrostatic attraction between GO-DIL and Cr(VI) was maximized. The maximum theoretical Cr(VI) adsorption capacity (qm) was 271.08 mg g-1, and qm remained above 228.00 mg g-1 after five cycles. The adsorption data were fitted well by both the pseudo-first-order kinetic model and the Langmuir model. Furthermore, thermodynamics calculations revealed that adsorption was a spontaneous endothermic process. Importantly, electrostatic attraction between Cr(VI) and the protonated imidazole N+ of GO-DIL played a critical role in Cr(VI) adsorption, and Cr(VI) was reduced to Cr(III). Thus, GO-DIL is predicted to be an effective adsorbent for Cr(VI) and other heavy metal ions in wastewater.

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
Poly(amidoamine)s (PAMAM) are very effective in the removal of heavy metal ions from water due to their abundant amine and amide functional groups, which have a high binding ability to heavy metal ions. We synthesized a new class of hyperbranched poly(amidehydrazide) (PAMH) hydrogel particles from dihydrazides and N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) monomer by using the A2 + B4 polycondensation reaction in an inverse suspension polymerization process. In Cd2+ and Cu2+ ion sorption tests, the synthesized dihydrazide-based PAMH hydrogel particles exhibited sorption capacities of 85 mg/g for copper and 47 mg/g for cadmium. Interestingly, the PAMH showed only a 10% decrease in sorption ability in an acidic condition (pH = 4) compared to the diamine-based hyperbranched PAMAM, which showed a ~90% decrease in sorption ability at pH of 4. In addition, PAMH hydrogel particles remove trace amounts of copper (0.67 ppm) and cadmium (0.5 ppm) in water, below the detection limit.

Abstract
The remediation of heavy metal is facing the great challenge of failing to achieve valuable transformation. Therefore, the development of a sustainable technology for heavy metal recycling and reuse is essential. The present study proposed a new way to convert Cr(VI) into value-added biological Cr2O3 nanoparticles (bio-Cr2O3 NPs) with B. megaterium-secreted tryptophan residues proteins (TPN). In this process, Cr(VI) was reduced extracellularly to Cr(III) by B. megaterium without additional reductant and electron donors. This study overcomes the difficulty of separation of NPs and biomass, and realizes the recovery of bio-Cr2O3 NPS from biomass. The conversing efficiency of bio-Cr2O3 NPs reached the highest level (96.56%) at the concentration of 10 ppm Cr(VI). In particular, bio-Cr2O3 NPs exhibited excellent catalytic activity for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in 1 M KOH, outperforming chemically synthesized Cr-base catalysts. Three-dimensional matrix fluorescence (EEM), verification of tryptophan reduction and computation chemistry fully confirmed that TPN was responsible for the bio-Cr2O3 NPs formation. This comprehensive approach to bioremediation, synthesis NPs and recovery, as well as application will open a window for sustainable energy development and heavy metal pollution remediation.

Abstract
We herein report a facile strategy to prepare poly(allylamine hydrochloride) cross-linked amino-modified graphene oxide (PAH-ASGO) by Schiff-base reactions. The resulting PAH-ASGO exhibited a maximum adsorption capacity of 373.1 mg/g for Cr(VI), which was nearly 9 times higher than that of pure graphene oxide, exceeding that of most GO-based materials previously reported. More significantly, PAH-ASGO can effectively diminish the Cr(VI) concentration from 9.9 mg/L to the extremely low level of 0.004 mg/L within 10 s, far below the maximum allowable level of Cr(VI) (0.05 mg/L) in drinking water. In addition, the adsorbents still displayed excellent removal efficiency of 91.8% after 10 cycles. Considering the broad diversity, we developed also a magnetic PAH-ASGO/Fe3O4 adsorbent by a simple cross-linking reaction to achieve rapid separation of PAH-ASGO from their aqueous solution. Finally, the PAH-ASGO was successfully utilized to treat the actual industrial effluent.

Abstract
Decontamination of radioactive TcO4- from nuclear wastes is increasingly crucial for spent nuclear fuel reprocessing and environmental remediation. In the presence of a large excess of competitive anions, the selective separation of TcO4- is a major challenge for adsorbents. Herein, by using pre-radiation induced grafting polymerization, we have modified economical and environmentally friendly cellulose microspheres to obtain quaternary phosphonium decorated TcO4- adsorbents with an ultra-high selectivity, designated CMS-g-VBPPh3NO3. The prepared materials show adsorption capacities of 251 mg g-1 (for the surrogate Re). The selective factor against NO3- in 0.5 mol kg-1 HNO3 is as high as 168, showing excellent anion-exchange selectivity towards TcO4-. Moreover, CMS-g-VBPPh3NO3 was packed in column for treating simulated acidic waste solutions containing Cs, Sr, Eu, Zr, Ru, U and Re, and it showed excellent Re separation performance. Tracer amount of 99mTc experiments showed that comparing to ReO4-, CMS-g-VBPPh3NO3 has a better adsorption selectivity for TcO4-.

Abstract
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are a new class of carbon nanoparticles with superior advantages as small particle size, excellent biocompatibility and low toxicity which advance their recent applications in biotechnology, bioimaging and biosensing. The use of free CQDs in water treatment is greatly rendered by their high solubility in water. Therefore, this work is aimed to rapidly synthesize CQDs in only 10 min via microwave irradiation pyrolysis of starch-water system. The maximum fluorescence emission of CQDs was detected at 526 nm throughout the excitation wavelength (390 nm). The CQDs have been targeted to occupy the surface and pores of a polymeric material based on poly(anthranilic acid-formaldehyde-phthalic acid) (PAFP) to produce a novel CQDs@PAFP nanobiosorbent. The surface area of CQDs@PAFP was detected (28.79 m2 g-1 BET) and the nanoparticle size was confirmed (TEM). The highest removals of U(VI) by CQDs@PAFP nanobiosorbent were 95.5-98.0 % for 30-90 mg L-1. The sorption mechanism was designated to the pseudo-second-order model and closely tailored with Freundlich model. CQDs@PAFP was emerged as an excellent nanobiosorbent for U(VI) removal from wastewater (97.3 %) and sea water (96.0 %). CQDs@PAFP confirmed its excellent reusablity for efficient multi- recovery of U(VI) from different water samples.
