Bathurst Burr (Xanthium spinosum) Powder-A New Natural Effective Adsorbent for Crystal Violet Dye Removal from Synthetic Wastewaters.

ABSTRACT: A new natural adsorbent material, Bathurst burr powder, was used to remove crystal violet dye from synthetic wastewaters. Particle size distribution and SEM and FTIR analyses were performed to characterize it. The effect of the operational adsorption process parameters (pH, ionic strength, initial dye concentration, adsorbent dose, contact time, temperature) onto the adsorption process was evaluated in a batch system. Equilibrium, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies were performed in order to understand the adsorption process. Taguchi method and ANOVA test were used to optimize the dye adsorption conditions and to establish the percentage contribution of each factor, respectively. The accuracy of the Taguchi prediction method was analyzed by correlating the predicted dye removal efficiency with the experimentally determined one. The particle size distribution analysis showed that 82.15% of the adsorbent particles have an average size below 0.5 mm. The adsorption process followed the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second order kinetic model. Maximum adsorption capacity value (164.10 mg·g^-1) was higher compared to many similar adsorbents. The process was endothermic, spontaneous, and favorably involving a physisorption mechanism. The Taguchi method showed that the most influential controllable factor was pH (65% contribution in adsorption efficiency) and the data analysis indicates a very good accuracy of the experimental design (R² = 0.994). The obtained results demonstrated that Bathurst burr powder can be used as a cheap and efficient adsorbent for crystal violet dye removal from aqueous solution.

Chemically Modified Polyvinyl Chloride for Removal of Thionine Dye (Lauth's Violet).

Project description:The chemical modification of hydrophobic polymer matrices is an alternative way to elchange their surface properties. The introduction of sulfonic groups in the polymer changes the surface properties such as adhesion, wettability, catalytic ability, and adsorption capacity. This work describes the production and application of chemically modified polyvinyl chloride (PVC) as adsorbent for dyes removal. Chemical modification of PVC was evaluated by infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis, which indicated the presence of sulfonic groups on PVC. The chemically modified PVC (PVCDS) showed an ion exchange capacity of 1.03 mmol-1, and efficiently removed the thionine dye (Lauth's violet) from aqueous solutions, reaching equilibrium in 30 min. The adsorption kinetics was better adjusted for a pseudo second order model. This result indicates that the adsorption of thionine onto PVCDS occurs by chemisorption. Among the models for the state of equilibrium, SIPS and Langmuir exhibited the best fit to the experimental results and PVCDS showed high adsorption capacities (370 mg-1). Thus, it is assumed that the system presents homogeneous characteristics to the distribution of active sites. The modification promoted the formation of surface characteristics favorable to the dye adsorption by the polymer.

Cucurbituril-Functionalized Nanocomposite as a Promising Industrial Adsorbent for Rapid Cationic Dye Removal.

Project description:A supramolecular cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6])-enriched magnetic montmorillonite (CBCM) nanocomposite was prepared and characterized. CB[6] played a prominent role as a capping agent, helping in better distribution of the nanoparticles, and as a binder between nanoparticles. Montmorillonite provided structural stability and fortified ultrafast adsorption toward dyes. Its application in the removal of cationic dyes from wastewater was systematically assessed. Process parameters such as pH, initial dye concentration, dosage, temperature, and time were optimized. Kinetics and isotherms of the process were described using pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm, respectively. CBCM exhibited rapid dye removal capacity in short reaction times with q max of 199.20, 78.31, and 55.62 mg g-1 and K2 of 0.0281, 0.0.0823, and 0.0953 L mg-1 min-1 for crystal violet, methylene blue, and rhodamine B, respectively. Benefiting from the synergetic effects of montmorillonite surface hydrophobicity, abundant carbonyl groups of CB[6], and magnetic properties of copper ferrite, CBCM demonstrated outstanding dye removal capacity, negligible leaching at saturation, and high tolerance toward harsh conditions. This intrinsic nature is expedient in prolonged industrial operations. To demonstrate industrial viability, syringe filtration and continuous flow fixed-bed column operations were validated. The CBCM fixed-bed column demonstrated stable dye removal efficiency with 10-100 mg mL-1 dye at 10-50 mL min-1 flow rates. Utilizing the magnetic and catalytic activities of the copper ferrite nanoparticles, CBCM was recycled using a magnet, regenerated, and reused for several cycles. CB[6] remarkably improved the performance of the nanocomposite and made it suitable for different effluent treatment techniques. This may pave a sustainable way toward the efficient onsite treatment of effluent at the industrial scale.

Phytotoxic Compounds Isolated from Leaves of the Invasive Weed <i>Xanthium spinosum</i>.

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify bioactive compounds from leaves of the invasive plant Xanthium spinosum and assess their phytotoxic activity. Activity-guided fractionation led to the isolation of 6 bioactive compounds: xanthatin (1), 1?,5?-epoxyxanthatin (2), 4-epiisoxanthanol (3), 4-epixanthanol (4), loliolide (5) and dehydrovomifoliol (6). Of them, compounds 2?6 were isolated from the X. spinosum for the first time. The structures of 1?6 were elucidated on the basis of extensive NMR studies and ESI-MS measurements as well as comparison with literature data. All of compounds were evaluated for their phytotoxic activity. Among them, compounds 1?4 exhibited stronger activity on 2 receiver plants compared with the other 2 compounds, with xanthatin (1) being the most potent compound, which suppressed root growth of the dicot plant Amaranthus retroflexus by 32.5%, 39.4%, 84.7% when treated xanthatin (1) at 5, 20, and 100 µg/mL, while for the monocot plant, root growth was inhibited by 14.7%, 28.0%, and 40.0%, respectively. Seedling growth was nearly completely inhibited when the concentration of xanthanolides increased to 500 µg/mL, whereas there was still some seedling growth when loliolide (5) and dehydrovomifoliol (6) were applied at the same concentration. Dehydrovomifoliol (6) did not negatively affect seedling growth of P. annua at all tested concentrations, and root length was still 42.0% of the control when the highest concentration 500 µg/mL was used. This is the first report of the phytotoxicity of 1?,5?-epoxyxanthatin (2), 4-epiisxanthanol (3) and 4-epixanthanol (4). These compounds have the potential to be utilized as natural herbicides, especially 4-epiisoxanthanol (3), which exhibited significant selective activity between the dicot and monocot plants. On the other hand, whether these bioactive substances serve as allelochemicals to facilitate the invasion success of X. spinosum needs to be further studied.

The efficiency of <i>Raphia hookeri</i> adsorbent in indigo carmine dye removal: Economy depth via chemometrics.

Project description:The remediation of dye pollutants remains a concern in contemporary water management practices. Hence, the need for efficient and cost-effective techniques for dye removal from wastewater. In this study, the epicarp of Raphia hookeri fruits was treated with orthophosphoric acid for enhanced porosity and efficiency in the uptake of Indigo carmine dye (ICD). Treated Raphia hookeri fruit waste (RHPW) presented morphologically distributed pores as well as high porosity with Branneur-Emmet-Teller (BET) surface area of 945.43 m2/g. RHPW displayed functional groups suitable for adsorption. The maximum ICD uptake was observed at pH 5 while the maximum uptake (qmax) was 20.41 mg/g in the concentration range of 2-10 mg/L. Freundlich isotherm and Pseudo-second order kinetics well-described equilibrium and kinetics data respectively. This indicated a multilayered adsorption. The Dubinin-Radushkecich model energy value was 40.82 kJ/mol, indicating chemical adsorption. The ridge regression, the Lasso and the Elastic net statistical models were used to establish a positive relationship between the various adsorption operational parameters studied. Lasso provided the best result based on the estimated mean squared error. The RHPW-ICD adsorption system was more favorable at room temperature, as the removal efficiency decreased with temperature rise. The findings established Raphia hookeri fruit epicarp as an economical and sustainable precursor for the preparation of potent adsorbent for Indigo carmine dye removal. This can find possible application in wastewater treatment.

Synthesis, Characterization, and Utilization of a Lignin-Based Adsorbent for Effective Removal of Azo Dye from Aqueous Solution.

Project description:How to effectively remove toxic dyes from the industrial wastewater using a green low-cost lignocellulose-based adsorbent, such as lignin, has become a topic of great interest but remains quite challenging. In this study, cosolvent-enhanced lignocellulosic fractionation (CELF) pretreatment and Mannich reaction were combined to generate an aminated CELF lignin which is subsequently applied for removal of methylene blue and direct blue (DB) 1 dye from aqueous solution. 31P NMR was used to track the degree of amination, and an orthogonal design was applied to determine the relationship between the extent of amination and reaction parameters. The physicochemical, morphological, and thermal properties of the aminated CELF lignin were characterized to confirm the successful grafting of diethylenetriamine onto the lignin. The aminated CELF lignin proved to be an effective azo dye-adsorbent, demonstrating considerably enhanced dye decolorization, especially toward DB 1 dye (>90%). It had a maximum adsorption capacity of DB 1 dye of 502.7 mg/g, and the kinetic study suggested the adsorption process conformed to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The isotherm results also showed that the modified lignin-based adsorbent exhibited monolayer adsorption. The adsorbent properties were mainly attributed to the incorporated amine functionalities as well as the increased specific surface area of the aminated CELF lignin.

Project description:This work reported on the adsorptions of direct red 28 dye on to the raw and calcined electro-coagulated, EC, sludge adsorbents collected from the textile wastewater treatment plant. EC sludge adsorbent was prepared with wet treatment by deionized water and calcination at 500 °C. Raw and processed data on main adsorption operation parameters and adsorbent characterization were reported. Also, adsorption isotherm, adsorption kinetics; and thermodynamic models for direct red 28 dye (DR28) removal mechanism on to the raw and calcined EC sludge adsorbents were reported. Instrumental analysis, such as Fourier Transformation infrared spectrometer (FTIR) and Ultraviolet/Visible (UV/Vis) spectroscopy were used for adsorbent characterization and dye absorbance measurement before and after adsorption respectively. UV-Visible spectrometer was used throughout the batch experiment. The effect of adsorption temperature (25 ± 2 °C (ambient), 40 °C, 60 °C and 80 °C), pH (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10), initial dye concentration (20, 40, 60 and 80 mg/L), contact time (10, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 min) and adsorbent dosage (0.1, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 g/100ml) were examined. For EC sludge adsorbent characteristics, FTIR analysis data is provided as raw and processed data before and after dye adsorption for both raw and calcined EC adsorbent. UV-Vis spectral analysis before and after dye removal with a pH range of 2-10 and batch adsorption experimental data records such as initial dye concentration, solution pH, temperature, adsorbent dosage and mixing time are reported.

Characteristics of the completed chloroplast genome sequence of Xanthium spinosum: comparative analyses, identification of mutational hotspots and phylogenetic implications.

Project description:BackgroundThe invasive species Xanthium spinosum has been used as a traditional Chinese medicine for many years. Unfortunately, no extensive molecular studies of this plant have been conducted.ResultsHere, the complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence of X. spinosum was assembled and analyzed. The cp genome of X. spinosum was 152,422 base pairs (bp) in length, with a quadripartite circular structure. The cp genome contained 115 unique genes, including 80 PCGs, 31 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Comparative analyses revealed that X. spinosum contains a large number of repeats (999 repeats) and 701 SSRs in its cp genome. Fourteen divergences (??>?0.03) were found in the intergenic spacer regions. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that Parthenium is a sister clade to both Xanthium and Ambrosia and an early-diverging lineage of subtribe Ambrosiinae, although this finding was supported with a very weak bootstrap value.ConclusionThe identified hotspot regions could be used as molecular markers for resolving phylogenetic relationships and species identification in the genus Xanthium.

Syringa vulgaris leaves powder a novel low-cost adsorbent for methylene blue removal: isotherms, kinetics, thermodynamic and optimization by Taguchi method.

Project description:In this study, the potential of a new low-cost adsorbent, Syringa vulgaris leaves powder, for methylene blue adsorption from aqueous solution was investigated. The adsorbent surface was examined using SEM and FTIR techniques. The experiments were conducted, in batch system, to find out the effect of pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial dye concentration, temperature and ionic strength on dye adsorption. The process is best described by Langmuir isotherm and the pseudo second order kinetic model. Maximum adsorption capacity, 188.2 (mg g-1), is better than other similar adsorbent materials. Thermodynamic parameters revealed a spontaneous and endothermic process, suggesting a physisorption mechanism. A Taguchi orthogonal array (L27) experimental design was used to determine the optimum conditions for the removal of dye. Various desorbing agents were used to investigate the regeneration possibility of used adsorbent. Results suggest that the adsorbent material is very effective for removal of methylene blue from aqueous solutions.
