Project description:In alignment with the sustainable development goals (SDGs), recent trends in water management have been directed toward using environmentally friendly bio-based materials for removing contaminants. In this work, we prepared a biocomposite of chitosan (CS) intercalated into acid activated calcium bentonite (Bent). A thermally stable mesoporous CS-Bent composite was prepared with a zeta potential of 15.5 to -34.4 mV in the pH range of 2.22-10. The biocomposite successfully removed up to 99.2% and 50 mg/g of the antibiotic ciprofloxacin HCl (CPX) at pH 5.5 via electrostatic and hydrogen bonding forces. In a multi-component aqueous system of heavy metal and CPX, the composite was more selective to CPX than to the heavy metals and removal of CPX in this system was comparable to that in a single-component system. The composite also maintained its high adsorption efficiency in NaCl solutions which makes it suitable for treating fresh and saline solutions. The combination of CS and bent produced a biodegradable eco-friendly composite characterized with good thermal and surface properties along with efficient and selective adsorption performance.

Project description:The highly efficient removal of tetracycline (TC) from an aqueous solution was accomplished by using the raw shrimp shell waste (SSW) as an environmentally friendly adsorbent. The SSW without any treatment removed TC more efficiently than the SSW after being treated with HCl and NaOH solutions. The SSW was characterized using nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherms, scanning electron microscopy alongside energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, a thermogravimetric-derivative thermogravimetry analyzer, and a ?-potential analyzer. The maximum adsorption capacity of 400 mg/L SSW was 229.98 mg/g for 36 h at 55 °C. Both the Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model well described the experimental data. According to the values of the Gibbs free energy and enthalpy changes, the TC adsorption by SSW proved to be spontaneous and endothermic. The TC adsorption process was controlled by intraparticle diffusion and liquid film diffusion.

Project description:In this study, a stable, cost-effective and environmentally friendly porous 2,5-bis(methylthio)terephthalaldehyde-chitosan-grafted graphene oxide (BMTTPA-CS-GO) nanocomposite was synthesized by covalently grafting BMTTPA-CS onto the surfaces of graphene oxide and used for removing heavy metal ions from polluted water. According to well-established Hg2+-thioether coordination chemistry, the newly designed covalently linked stable porous BMTTPA-CS-GO nanocomposite with thioether units on the pore walls greatly increases the adsorption capacity of Hg2+ and does not cause secondary pollution to the environment. The results of sorption experiments and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry measurements demonstrate that the maximum adsorption capacity of Hg2+ on BMTTPA-CS-GO at pH 7 is 306.8 mg g-1, indicating that BMTTPA-CS-GO has excellent adsorption performance for Hg2+. The experimental results show that this stable, environmentally friendly, cost-effective and excellent adsorption performance of BMTTPA-CS-GO makes it a potential nanocomposite for removing Hg2+ and other heavy metal ions from polluted water, and even drinking water. This study suggests that covalently linked crucial groups on the surface of carbon-based materials are essential for improving the adsorption capacity of adsorbents for heavy metal ions.

Project description:The use of carbon based materials on the removal of antibiotics with high concentrations has been well studied, however the effect of this removal method is not clear on the actual concentration of environments, such as the hospital wastewater, sewage treatment plants and aquaculture wastewater. In this study, experimental studies on the adsorption of 7 antibiotics in environmental concentration of aqueous solutions by carbon based materials have been observed. Three kinds of carbon materials have shown very fast adsorption to antibiotics by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) detection, and the highest removal efficiency of antibiotics could reach to 100% within the range of detection limit. Surprisedly, the adsorption rate of graphene with small specific surface area was stronger than other two biochar, and adsorption rate of the two biochar which have approximate specific surface and different carbonization degree, was significantly different. The key point to the present observation were the ?-? interactions between aromatic rings on adsorbed substance and carbon based materials by confocal laser scanning microscope observation. Moreover, adsorption energy markedly increased with increasing number of the ? rings by using the density functional theory (DFT), showing the particular importance of ?-? interactions in the adsorption process.

Project description:The adsorption behavior of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) ions onto laboratory-synthesized 2-line ferrihydrite was investigated under a batch method as a function of initial chromium concentration (0.1-1000 mg L-1) and pH (3.0 and 5.0). Moreover, the effect of the type of anion (chloride and sulfate) on Cr(III) adsorption was studied. The affinity of Cr(III) ions for the ferrihydrite surface depended on both the type of anion and pH of the solution and the maximum adsorption capacities decreased as follows: q (SO4 2-, pH 5.0) > q (SO4 2-, pH 3.0) > q (Cl-, pH 5.0) > q (Cl-, pH 3.0), and were found to be 86.06 mg g-1, 83.59 mg g-1, 61.51 mg g-1 and 40.67 mg g-1, respectively. Cr(VI) ions were bound to ferrihydrite in higher amounts then Cr(III) ions and the maximum adsorption capacity increased as the pH of the solution decreased and was 53.14 mg g-1 at pH 5.0 and 83.73 mg g-1 at pH 3.0. The adsorption process of Cr species was pH dependent, and the ions were bound to the surface of ferrihydrite by surface complexation. The Sips isotherm was the best-fit model to the results obtained from among the four isotherm models used, i.e., Freundlich, Langmuir, Dubinin-Radushkevich and Sips, indicating different adsorption centers participate in Cr uptake. In order to assess the bonding strength of the adsorbed chromium ions the modified BCR procedure, dedicated to the samples with a high iron content, was used. The results of the sequential extraction showed that Cr(III) ions were bound mainly in the immobile residual fraction and Cr(VI) ions were bound in the reducible fraction. The presence of Fe (oxyhydr)oxides in soil and sediments increases their adsorption capacity for Cr, in particular for hexavalent Cr in an acid environment due to their properties (high pHPZC).

Project description:Hexazinone, a globally applied broad-spectrum triazine herbicide, has not been mechanistically investigated previously under advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and adsorption on activated carbon. In this study, its fate during UV-based oxidation with/without hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and adsorption on coconut shell-based granular activated carbon (CSGAC) in water matrices was investigated. A comparison between various irradiation sources (visible, UVA, UVB, and UVC) revealed the highest degradation rate under UVC. More than 98% degradation of hexazinone was observed under 3 J cm-2 UVC fluence in the presence of 0.5 mM H2O2 at pH 7. Moreover, the degradation rate enhanced significantly with an increase in the initial dosage of H2O2, UV fluence, and contact time in the UV/H2O2 process. The rate of degradation was lower using secondary effluent than that of Milli-Q water due to the presence of dissolved organics in wastewater. However, the reactions in both matrices obeyed pseudo-first-order kinetics. The effect of different scavengers, including methanol, potassium iodide (KI), and tert-butyl alcohol (TBA), showed that hydroxyl radicals (•OH) played a dominant role in hexazinone degradation in the UV/H2O2 process. Hexazinone was effectively adsorbed by CSGAC through π-π electron donor-acceptor interactions between hexazinone's triazine ring and CSGAC's surface functional groups. The isotherm and kinetic studies showed that the adsorption followed the Freundlich model and pseudo-second-order reaction, respectively, suggesting chemisorption. This study provided mechanistic insights on the removal of hexazinone at the tertiary stage of wastewater treatment or the advanced treatment of wastewater reuse.

Project description:With the increasing problem of fluoride pollution, it is urgent to find an efficient method to remove fluoride (F-). In this study, a new material goethite-montmorillonite-sorbent (GMS) was prepared and added into the electrocoagulation (EC) reaction to form a new pathway (EC/GMS) for the removal of fluoride. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and other characterization methods were used to analyze the properties of GMS. The fluoride removal performance and mechanism of EC/GMS was studied. The results showed that GMS could provide numerous adsorption sites. EC/GMS could achieve a high removal efficiency of 95.98% and lower energy consumption of 0.58 kW h m-3 for 60 min. EC/GMS could achieve a removal efficiency of 99.47% after optimization by single-factor experiments and RSM-BBD optimal experiments. Meantime, the removal rate of the EC/GMS still reached over 87% after six cycles. The kinetic analysis indicated that the degradation pathways could also achieve a high removal rate for high fluoride-containing concentration solutions within a short time. The stretching vibration of C-F and C-O and the existence of F- revealed that the electrophoresis of the electrodes, adsorption of GMS, and co-precipitation of flocs were the main removal pathways, and the accelerating effect between the electrocoagulation and adsorption process was addressed. This study provides a new pathway for removing fluoride from aqueous environments.

Project description:Three series of resins with different functional groups (PS-EA, PS-MP, and PS-BA) based on D101 copolymer were prepared via the atom transfer radical polymerization method. The adsorption capacities of functionalized resins toward matrine (MT) and oxymatrine (OM) depended on the specific surface area, the surface chemistry, and the good polarity match between the target compound and porous material. It is noted that the accumulation of functional groups uploaded on the surface of resins increased the adsorption affinity difference between the MT-functionalized resin system and OM-modified copolymer system. The selectivity of modified resins to MT and OM would attribute to polarity matching. The results could provide a possible strategy for the design of efficient adsorbents applied for the isolation the bioactive compound from complex natural products.

Project description:Electrospinning technique is a simple and cheap method for fabrication of electrospun nanofibers (ENFs), which in turn can converted into electrospun carbon nanofibers (ECNFs) by carbonization process. The controlling of the ECNFs properties (e.g. surface area, porosity, diameters) during fabrication, make it superior over the other carbon nanomaterials. The aim of our study is to modify the surface of ECNFs to increase its hydrophilicity and in turn its efficiency in removing lead ions (Pb2+) from aqueous systems. The surface modification was carried out in two steps starting from oxidation of pristine ECNFs to produce oxidized ECNFs (o-ECNFs), followed by covalently bonded of melamine, and poly(m-phenylene diamine) for forming melamine-functionalized ECNFs (melam-ECNFs) and poly(m-phenylene diamine)-functionalized ECNFs (PmPDA-ECNFs), respectively. The as-prepared materials were characterized in routine way. The ability of the as-prepared materials towards adsorption of Pb2+ ions as heavy metal was investigated with the study of some factors such as pH solution, contact time, initial concentration and temperature. The adsorption process was analyzed isothermally, and kinetically. According to the values of the thermodynamic parameters, the adsorption of Pb2+ ions onto the functionalized ECNFs was endothermic and spontaneous, except with melam-ECNFs was exothermic.

Project description:Aqueous-phase approaches to semiconductor CdS magic-size clusters (MSCs) and the formation pathway have remained relatively unexplored. Here, we report the demonstration of an aqueous-phase, room-temperature approach to CdS MSCs, together with an exploration of their evolution pathway. The resulting CdS MSCs display a sharp optical absorption peak at about 360 nm and are labeled MSC-360. With CdCl2 and thiourea as the respective Cd and S sources, and 3-mercarpotopropionic acid as the ligand, CdS MSC-360 develops in a mixture of a primary amine and water. We argue that the primary amine facilitates room-temperature decomposition of thiourea when CdCl2 is present, and the formation pathway of MSCs is similar to that in organic-phase approaches. Our findings show there is a viable avenue to room-temperature aqueous-phase formation of CdS MSCs. Providing explanations of the procedure developed including the formation of large aggregates, the present study represents an important advance towards a mechanistic understanding of nanocrystal synthesis.
