Tetracycline Adsorption on Magnetic Sludge Biochar: Effects of pH, Humic Acid (HA), and Fulvic Acid (FA).

ABSTRACT: Natural organic matters (NOMs) are ubiquitous in the environment, but few systematic studies have examined the influence of NOMs on the sorption ability of magnetic sludge biochar. In this study, magnetic sludge biochar was synthesized, characterized, and used as a sorbent to remove tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solutions. The effects of pH, humic acid (HA), and fulvic acid (FA) on TC adsorption by magnetic sludge biochar were studied using batch experiments. Adding HA and FA can alter the adsorption behavior of TC, except for its pH dependency. The results of this study show that relatively low concentrations of dissolved HA (≤8 ppm) and FA (≤5 ppm) promote the adsorption capacity of TC, but higher concentrations compete against TC for sorption sites on the surface of magnetic sludge biochar. The results of this study promote a better understanding of the application of magnetic sludge biochar in real antibiotic wastewater.

Effect of dissolved humic acids and coated humic acids on tetracycline adsorption by K2CO3-activated magnetic biochar.

Project description:Humic acids (HAs) widely exist in water environment, and has an important impact on the adsorption of pollutants. Herein, HAs (both dissolved and coated) was employed to assess the effect on the removal of the organic contaminant tetracycline (TC) by K2CO3 modified magnetic biochar (KMBC). Results showed that low concentration of dissolved HAs promoted TC removal, likely due to a bridging effect, while higher concentration of dissolved HAs inhibited TC adsorption because of the competition of adsorption sites on KMBC. By characterization analysis, coated HAs changed the surface and pore characteristics of KMBC, which suppressed the TC removal. In a sequential adsorption experiment involving dissolved HAs and TC, the addition of HAs at the end of the experiment led to the formation of HAs-TC ligands with free TC, which improved the adsorption capacity of TC. TC adsorption by KMBC in the presence of dissolved HAs and coated HAs showed a downward trend with increasing pH from 5.0 to 10.0. The TC adsorption process was favorable and endothermic, and could be better simulated by pseudo-second-order kinetics and Freundlich isotherm model. Hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions were hypothesized to be the underlying influencing mechanisms.

Tetracycline adsorption on magnetic sludge biochar: size effect of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles.

Project description:Activated sludge, which is difficult and expensive to treat and dispose of, is a key concern in wastewater treatment plants. In this study, magnetic sludge biochar containing activated sludge and different sizes (14.3, 40.2 and 90.5 nm) of Fe3O4 nanoparticles was investigated as an effective adsorbent for tetracycline (TC) adsorption. Magnetic sludge-based biochar was prepared by a facile cross-linking method and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and zeta potential analysis. The adsorption performances of TC on three kinds of adsorbents were investigated. Although 14.3 nm Fe3O4 nanoparticles could be inclined to aggregate and partially filled with pores of biochar, it turned out that magnetic sludge biochar with 14.3 nm Fe3O4 nanoparticles exhibited optimum performance for TC removal with adsorption capacity up to 184.5 mg g-1, due to the larger amounts of functional groups and the change of zeta potential. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics of TC on three kinds of adsorbents were studied, which implied that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model exhibited the better fit for the entire sorption process.

Adsorption behaviour of hydrogarnet for humic acid.

Project description:Discharge of humic acid (HA) in aqueous environments is a key health and aesthetic issue. The present work investigates the use of hydrogarnet as a novel adsorbent for HA. Hydrogarnet was hydrothermally synthesized with different solvents to control the chemical composition. Hydrogarnet with three types of chemical compositions had better adsorption properties for HA than hydrogarnet with a single chemical composition. Controlling the chemical composition of hydrogarnet increased the number of hydroxyl groups and the overall binding energy of the system, leading to changes in the zeta potential. The enhancement of these adsorption properties is related to the increased numbers of hydroxyl groups on the surface and their diverse binding energies.

Insights into the pH-Dependent Adsorption Behavior of Ionic Dyes on Phosphoric Acid-Activated Biochar.

Project description:Activated biochar is a promising porous carbonaceous adsorbent material for organic pollutant removal, but it remains challenging to obtain high porosity and aromaticity through a simple and low-cost synthetic method. The common adsorption mechanisms of organic dyes on activated biochar should be further investigated in order to guide the synthesis of high-efficiency adsorbent materials. Here, we proposed a high-yield (up to 40 wt %) synthetic method of phosphoric acid-activated biochar from pomelo peel (PPC) with a high specific area of 877.3 m2/g through a facile thermal treatment at a relatively low temperature (250 °C). The specific activation mechanism of H3PO4 in the preparation of the adsorbent was investigated by a range of experiments and characterizations. The kinetic and isotherm experiments are also conducted to evaluate its dye adsorption behavior. According to the adsorption experiment results, PPC exhibits high saturated adsorption capacities for methyl orange (MO, 239.1 mg/g), rhodamine B (RhB, 2821.8 mg/g), methylene blue (MB, 580.5 mg/g), and crystal violate (CV, 396.6 mg/g) according to the Langmuir model. The maximum initial concentration of each dye solution for acquiring 90% removal efficiency is estimated to be 234.55 ppm (MO), 2943.8 ppm (RhB), 633.8 ppm (MB), and 423.6 ppm (CV) at 298 K with an adsorbent dosage of 1 g/L. The characterization results also indicate PPC has a complex synergetic mechanism for ionic dye adsorption behavior. This provides perspectives regarding PPC as a promising biochar adsorbent from biomass waste, which is probably useful for high-efficiency dye removal in water treatment.

Effects of Biochar-Derived Sewage Sludge on Heavy Metal Adsorption and Immobilization in Soils.

Project description:The object of this study was to evaluate the effect of sewage sludge biochar on adsorption and mobility of Cr, Mn, Cu, and Zn. Biochar (BC400) was produced via pyrolysis of municipal sewage sludge at 400 °C. Maximum adsorption capacities (qm) for Zn, Cr, Mn, and Cu were 5.905, 5.724, 5.681, and 5.342 mg·g-1, respectively, in the mono-metal solution and 2.475, 8.204, 1.01, and 5.415 mg·g-1, respectively, in the multi-metal solution. The adsorption capacities for Mn, Cu, and Zn decreased in the multi-metal solution due to competitive adsorption, whereas the capacity for Cr increased. Surface precipitation is an important mechanism in the sorption of these metals on BC400. The 360-day incubation experiment showed that BC400 application reduced metal mobility in contaminated soils, which was attributed to the substantial decreases in the acid-soluble fractions of Cr, Mn, Cu, and Zn (72.20%, 70.38%, 50.43%, and 29.78%, respectively). Furthermore, the leaching experiment using simulated acid rain indicated that the addition of BC400 enhanced the acid buffer capacity of contaminated soil, and the concentration of Cr, Mn, Cu, and Zn in the leachate was lower than in untreated soil. Overall, this study indicates that sewage sludge biochar application reduces the mobility of heavy metal in co-contaminated soil, and this adsorption experiment is suitable for the evaluation of biochar properties for remediation.

High-efficiency adsorption of tetracycline by the prepared waste collagen fiber-derived porous biochar.

Project description:Porous biochar (PBC) derived from Cr-containing waste collagen fibers was prepared by two-step pyrolysis to 800 °C (PBC-800) and alkali activation. Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and zeta potential analysis were used to characterize PBC-800. Batch experiments showed that PBC-800 had an excellent removal effect on tetracycline (TC), and the maximum adsorption capacity was 593.84 mg g-1. Meanwhile, PBC-800 was found to be suitable for a wide pH range. The isothermal adsorption and kinetic model fitting proved that the TC adsorption by PBC-800 occurred via 5 types of chemical adsorption. The main rate-limiting step was closely related to the initial concentration of TC. The total release of Cr was less than 0.05 mg L-1, which indicated that PBC-800 was stable and did not cause serious secondary pollution. Compared to the conventional metal-free biomass, Cr in a waste collagen fiber (WCF) played an important role in carbon formation and adsorption. The excellent adsorption properties of PBC-800 indicated that it could enrich low concentrations of TC in water. Thus, WCF can be used to prepare cost-effective PBC, which supplies a new process to reuse Cr-containing waste.

Effect of pH on Adsorption of Tetracycline Antibiotics on Graphene Oxide.

Project description:Graphene oxide (GO) has good dispersibility and adsorption capacity for antibiotics adsorption, a complex process influenced by many factors. In this work, the adsorption mechanism of GO on tetracycline antibiotics at different pH was studied to address its attenuated effects on the microbial growth. The results showed that the adsorption process of GO on three antibiotics, namely, tetracycline (TC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and chlortetracycline (CTC), followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The maximum adsorption capacities were observed at pH5 which were 133.0 mg/g for TC, 125.4 mg/g for OTC, and 167.0 mg/g for CTC. Furthermore, the reaction was uniform adsorption with a single layer on the surface of GO, and heating was conducive to the reaction. In the microbial growth experiment, the growth of E. coli and B. subtilis senses was optimal at pH5, which was consistent with the adsorption experiment. This study analyzed the effect of pH on the adsorption of antibiotics by GO and provided a theoretical basis for the further application of GO in various aquatic environments.

Adsorption and desorption of heavy metals by the sewage sludge and biochar-amended soil.

Project description:The goal of the study was to evaluate the application of biochar (BC) to the sewage sludge (SL) on the adsorption and desorption capacity of Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II). The effect of biochar contribution in the sewage sludge (2.5, 5 and 10%) was investigated. The isotherms data were fitted to the Langmiur (LM), Freundlich (FM) and Temkin (TM) models. The best fitting for kinetic study was obtained for the pseudo-second-order equation. The best fitting of the experimental data was observed for the LM in the case of SL and BC, and for the FM in the case of SL- and SL/BC-amended soil. SL was characterized by even four-order higher sorption capacity than BC. The addition of the BC to the SL and next to the soil increased the adsorption capacity of the soil and the SL-amended soil. In the case of all investigated potentially toxic elements (PTEs), the highest adsorption capacity was achieved for SL-amended soil in comparison with the control soil. In the case of other experimental variants, the adsorption capacity of metal ions was as follows: 2.5% BC > 5.0% BC > 10% BC. The negative correlation between hydrated radius of metal ions and the kinetics of sorption was observed. However, the desorption of PTEs from BC/SL-amended soil was significantly lower than for SL-amended soil (except of Cd) and non-amended soil. It can be concluded that the addition of the biochar enhanced the immobilization of PTEs and reduced their bioavailability and mobility in the soil amended by the sewage sludge.
