Comprehensive Adsorption Studies of Doxycycline and Ciprofloxacin Antibiotics by Biochars Prepared at Different Temperatures.

ABSTRACT: This paper comparatively investigated the removal efficiency and mechanisms of rice straw biochars prepared under three pyrolytic temperatures for two kinds of tetracycline and quinolone antibiotics (doxycycline and ciprofloxacin). The influencing factors of antibiotic adsorption (including biochar dosage, pH, background electrolytes, humic acid, initial antibiotics concentration, contact time, and temperature) were comprehensively studied. The results suggest that biochars produced at high-temperature [i.e., 700°C (BC700)], have higher adsorption capacity for the two antibiotics than low-temperature (i.e., 300-500°C) biochars (BC300 and BC500). Higher surface area gives rise to greater volume of micropores and mesopores, and higher graphitic surfaces of the BC700 contributed to its higher functionality. The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be in the following order: DOX > CIP. The π-π EDA interaction and hydrogen bonding might be the predominant adsorption mechanisms. Findings in this study highlight the important roles of high-temperature biochars in controlling the contamination of tetracycline and quinolone antibiotics in the environment.

Adsorption characteristics of Cd(ii) in aqueous solutions using spent mushroom substrate biochars produced at different pyrolysis temperatures.

Project description:To effectively remove Cd from water, biochars were produced by pyrolyzing surplus agricultural wastes of spent mushroom substrate (SMS) at 300, 500, and 700 °C. The biochars were characterized, and their Cd(ii) removal ratios and adsorption capacities in aqueous solutions were evaluated. The physical and chemical properties of the biochars were significantly affected by increasing the pyrolysis temperature; the data indicated that the ash content, pH and specific surface area of the biochars increased, whereas the yield and contents of carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen decreased. In addition, the molar ratios of H/C, O/C and (O + N)/C decreased, which implied that the biochars became more aromatic and carbonaceous with a lower polarity and fewer oxygen-based functional groups. The pseudo-second-order kinetics model and Langmuir and Temkin isotherm models described the Cd(ii) adsorption better than the other tested models. The biochars derived at higher pyrolysis temperatures had higher adsorption capacities, and the maximum adsorption capacities for PC700 and SC700 were 71.49 and 46.87 mg g-1, respectively. The Q m values in our study were equivalent to or even higher than those for other modified biochars. This result shows that the biochars in this study are effective adsorbents for Cd(ii) removal from wastewater.

Assessing the Potential of Biochars Prepared by Steam-Assisted Slow Pyrolysis for CO2 Adsorption and Separation.

Project description:The potentialities in the use of biochars prepared by steam-assisted slow pyrolysis as adsorbents of gases of strategic interest (N2, CO2, and CH4) and their mixtures were explored. The biochars prepared from Populus nigra wood and cellulose fibers exhibited a narrow microporosity, with average pore sizes ranging between 0.55 and 0.6 nm. The micropore volume increased with the pyrolysis temperature, allowing CO2 and CH4 uptakes at room temperature between 1.5 and 2.5 mmol/g and between 0.1 and 0.5 mmol/g, respectively. These values are in line with those from the literature on biomass-derived carbon-based materials, exhibiting much higher porous features than those reported herein. As for the separation of CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 gas mixtures, data showed that the prepared biochars exhibited good selectivities for CO2 over both N2 and CH4: between ca. 34 and 119 for a CO2/N2 mixture in typical post-combustion conditions (15:85, v/v) and between 14 and 34 for a CO2/CH4 mixture typical of natural gas upgrading (30:70, v/v).

Adsorption and Aggregation Properties of Some Polysorbates at Different Temperatures.

Project description:Measurements of the surface tension of aqueous solutions of polysorbates (Tween 20, Tween 60 and Tween 80) at 293, 303 and 313 K were made. On the basis of the obtained results the Gibbs surface excess concentration of the Tweens at the water-air interface and critical micelle concentrations were determined. Knowing the Gibbs surface excess concentration and taking into account the difference between the limiting area occupied by water and Tween molecules at the water-air interface, the fraction occupied by Tween molecules was established. The limiting area occupied by the Tween molecule was calculated by applying the Joos equation. The area determined in such a way was confirmed by the calculations of cross section of Tween molecules based on the bond lengths and the angles between them as well as the average distance between the molecules, taking into account their different conformations. This area was used for calculation of the standard Gibbs energy of adsorption using the Langmuir equation. The standard Gibbs energy of Tweens adsorption at the water-air interface was also calculated from the hydrophobic part of Tween molecule-water interface tension and that of hydrophobic part. Using the determined values of standard Gibbs energy of adsorption at different temperatures, the standard enthalpy and entropy values were deduced. The standard thermodynamic functions of micellization were also determined and compared to the Gibbs energy of Tween molecules interactions through the water phase.

Predicting the speciation of ionizable antibiotic ciprofloxacin by biochars with varying carbonization degrees.

Project description:Sorption mechanisms of ionizable organic pollutants by biochars and approaches for the prediction of sorption are still unclear. In this study, batch experiments were conducted to explore the sorption mechanisms of woodchip-derived biochars prepared at 200-700 °C (referred as WC200-WC700) for cationic, zwitterionic and anionic species of ciprofloxacin (referred as CIP+, CIP± and CIP-, respectively). The results revealed that the sorption affinity of WC200 for different CIP species was in the order of CIP± > CIP+ > CIP-, while that of WC300-WC700 remained the order of CIP+ > CIP± > CIP-. WC200 exhibited a strong sorption ability, which could be attributed to hydrogen bonding and electrostatic attraction with CIP+, electrostatic attraction with CIP±, and charge-assisted hydrogen bonding with CIP-. Pore filling and π-π interactions contributed to the sorption of WC300-WC700 for CIP+, CIP± and CIP-. Rising temperature facilitated CIP sorption to WC400 as verified by site energy distribution analysis. Proposed models including the proportion of the three CIP species and sorbent aromaticity index (H/C) can quantitatively predict CIP sorption to biochars with varying carbonization degrees. These findings are vital to elucidating the sorption behaviors of ionizable antibiotics to biochars and exploring potential sorbents for environmental remediation.

Development and Comparative Evaluation of Ciprofloxacin Nanoemulsion-Loaded Bigels Prepared Using Different Ratios of Oleogel to Hydrogels.

Project description:Nanoemulsions and bigels are biphasic delivery systems that can be used for topical applications. The aim of this study was to incorporate an oil-in-water ciprofloxacin hydrochloride nanoemulsion (CIP.HCl NE) into two types of bigels, Type I (oleogel (OL)-in-hydrogel (WH)) and Type II (WH-in-OL) to enhance drug penetration into skin and treat topical bacterial infections. Bigels were prepared at various ratios of OL and WH (1:1, 1:2, and 1:4). Initially, CIP.HCl NE was prepared and characterized in terms of droplet size, zeta potential, polydispersity index, morphology, and thermodynamic and chemical stability. Then CIP.HCl NE was dispersed into the OL or WH phase of the bigel. The primary physical stability studies showed that Type I bigels were physically stable, showing no phase separation. Whereas Type II bigels were physically unstable, hence excluded from the study. Type I bigels were subjected to microstructural, rheological, in vitro release, antimicrobial, and stability studies. The microscopic images showed a highly structured bigel network with nanoemulsion droplets dispersed within the bigel network. Additionally, bigels exhibited pseudoplastic flow and viscoelastic properties. A complete drug release was achieved after 4-5 h. The in vitro and ex vivo antimicrobial studies revealed that bigels exhibited antimicrobial activity against different bacterial strains. Moreover, stability studies showed that the rheological properties and physical and chemical stability varied based on the bigel composition over three months. Therefore, the physicochemical and rheological properties, drug release rate, and antimicrobial activity of Type I bigels could be modified by altering the OL to WH ratio and the phase in which the nanoemulsion dispersed in.

Ciprofloxacin and Trimethoprim Adsorption/Desorption in Agricultural Soils.

Project description:The current research focuses on the adsorption/desorption characteristics of the antibiotics ciprofloxacin (CIP) and trimethoprim (TRI) taking place in 17 agricultural soils, which are studied by means of batch-type experiments. The results show that adsorption was higher for CIP, with Freundlich KF values ranging between 1150 and 5086 Ln µmol1-n kg-1, while they were between 29 and 110 Ln µmol1-n kg-1 in the case of TRI. Other parameters, such as the Langmuir maximum adsorption capacity (qm(ads)), as well as the Kd parameter in the linear model and also the adsorption percentages, follow the same trend as KF. Desorption was lower for CIP (with KF(des) values in the range 1089-6234 Ln µmol1-n kg-1) than for TRI (with KF(des) ranging between 26 and 138 Ln µmol1-n kg-1). The higher irreversibility of CIP adsorption was also confirmed by its lower nF(des)/nF(ads) ratios, compared to TRI. Regarding soil characteristics, it was evidenced that nitrogen and carbon contents, as well as mineral fractions, had the highest influence on the adsorption/desorption process. These results can be considered relevant as regards the fate of both antibiotics when they reach the environment as pollutants and therefore could be considered in assessment procedures focused on environmental and public health aspects.

Assessing CO<sub>2</sub> Adsorption on Amino-Functionalized Mesocellular Foams Synthesized at Different Aging Temperatures.

Project description:A wide variety of solid sorbents has recently been synthesized for application in CO2 adsorption. Among them, mesoporous silicas deserve attention because of their ability to accommodate large concentrations of different chemicals as a consequence of their surface chemistry and tunable pore structure. Functionalized materials exhibit promising features for CO2 adsorption at high temperatures and low CO2 concentrations. This work aimed to assess the influence of the textural properties on the performance of CO2 adsorption on functionalized mesoporous silica. With this goal, several mesoporous silica foams were synthesized by varying the aging temperature, obtaining materials with larger pore diameter. Thus, the synthesized materials were functionalized by grafting or impregnation with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, polyethylenimine, and tetraethylenepentamine as amine sources. Finally, the amino functionalized materials were assessed for CO2 capture by means of equilibrium adsorption isotherms at 25, 45, and 65°C. Among the most outstanding results, high aging temperatures favor the performance of impregnated materials by exposing greater pore diameters. Low or intermediate temperatures favor grafting by preserving an appropriate density of silanol groups.

Adsorption Behavior and Relative Distribution of Cd2+ Adsorption Mechanisms by the Magnetic and Nonmagnetic Biochars Derived from Chicken Manure.

Project description:The present study investigated the adsorption of Cd2+ by nonmagnetic and magnetic biochars (CMB and M-CMB) derived from chicken manure, respectively. The adsorption characteristics were investigated as a function of initial pH, contact time, initial Cd2+ concentration and magnetic separation. Adsorption process of both biochars were better described by Pseudo-second-order kinetic equation and Freundlich isotherm model, which were spontaneous and endothermic in nature. It was found that maximum capacities were 60.69 and 41.07 mg/g obtained at the initial Cd2+ concentration of 180 mg/L for CMB and M-CMB, and the turbidity of adsorption-treated solution was reduced from 244.3 to 11.3 NTU after magnetic separation of 0.5 min. These indicated that M-CMB had lower adsorption capacity of Cd2+ than CMB, though it was successfully separated from the treated solutions. Furthermore, both biochars before and after adsorption were analyzed by SEM-EDS, XRD and FTIR. Adsorption mechanisms mainly included precipitation, ion-exchange, complexation and C?-coordination, in which precipitation and ion-exchange dominated the adsorption process by CMB, while in M-CMB, precipitation was always predominant mechanism, followed by ion-exchange. The two other mechanisms of complexation and C?-coordination were trivial in both biochars, jointly contributing 7.21% for CMB and 5.05% for M-CMB to total adsorption. The findings deepen our understanding of the mechanisms governing the adsorption process, which are also important for future practical applications in the removal of heavy metals from wastewater by the biochars.

Adsorption characteristics and mechanism of p-nitrophenol by pine sawdust biochar samples produced at different pyrolysis temperatures.

Project description:Biochar is becoming a low-cost substitute of activated carbon for the removal of multiple contaminants. In this study, five biochar samples derived from pine sawdust were produced at different pyrolysis temperatures (300?°C-700?°C) and used adsorbents to remove p-nitrophenol from water. Results indicate that, as the pyrolysis temperature increases, the surface structure of biochar grows in complexity, biochar's aromaticity and number of functional group decrease, and this material's polarity increases. Biochar's physiochemical characteristics and dosage, as well as solution's pH and environmental temperature significantly influence the p-nitrophenol adsorption behavior of biochar. p-nitrophenol adsorption onto biochar proved to be an endothermic and spontaneous process; furthermore, a greater energy exchange was observed to take place when biochar samples prepared at high temperatures were utilized. The adsorption mechanism includes physical adsorption and chemisorption, whereas its rate is mainly affected by intra-particle diffusion. Notably, in biochar samples prepared at low temperature, adsorption is mainly driven by electrostatic interactions, whereas, in their high-temperature counterparts, p-nitrophenol adsorption is driven also by hydrogen bonding and ?-? interactions involving functional groups on the biochar surface.
