ABSTRACTThe efficiency of the metal-organic framework of zinc (MOF-74) and its chitosan composite (CS/MOF-74) as a potential sorbent for the elimination of azo in addition to thiazine-type dyes from water by subsequent adsorption was studied. The synthesized adsorbents were characterized by various characterization techniques. The chitosan composite exhibited tremendous adsorption properties toward methyl orange (MO) and methylene blue (MB) at pH < 5.5 and pH > 5.5, respectively. The equilibrium data were evaluated by Dubinin-Radushkevich, Langmuir, Freundlich, and Tempkin isotherm models where the Langmuir model was best fitted to the adsorption data. The mono-layer sorption capacity values were found to be in the order 2047 mg/g and 1363 mg/g for MO and MB respectively onto CS/MOF-74 which are almost 6–8 epochs superior to MOF-74 and CS. In addition, pseudo-first, pseudo-second, intraparticle diffusion and Richenberg kinetic models were assessed to the kinetic data where the pseudo-second-order fitted very well to the adsorption data. The higher values of diffusion coefficient confirmed the greater involvement of the film diffusion than the pore and surface diffusion for the elimination of basic as well as acidic dyes onto CS/mOF-74. Thermodynamically, the negative value of isosteric heat of adsorption (ΔHˉ) concluded that the current study was found exothermic in nature. Moreover, electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonding, and electron donor–acceptor interactions were suggested as probable mechanisms in the current adsorption process. The current study estimates the industrial importance of a chitosan composite of MOF-74 as it requires a short adsorption equilibrium time for the removal of the dyes and is satisfactorily reusable.KEYWORDS: Chitosankineticsmofsmethyl orangepolymerthermodynamics Highlights The adsorption capacity of CS/MOF-74 6–8 times greater than its counterparts.The dominant interactions for dyes removal were electrostatic and hydrogen bonding.After five cycles of regeneration, the adsorption capacity was found to be 70%.AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to convey their gratitude to the Prince Sattam Bin Abdulaziz University (project number PSAU/2023/R/1444), Al-Kharj 16278, Saudi Arabia, National Centre of Excellence in Physical Chemistry, University of Peshawar, Peshawar Pakistan, and Bacha Khan University, Charsadda, Pakistan for providing us with the necessary support and facilities to carry out this study.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Novelty statementThe literature revealed that the porous structure and ultra-high surface area make Zinc MOF (MOF-74) an excellent adsorbent for the removal of dyes from aqueous media.

ABSTRACT This study investigated the water recovery of real textile wastewater by Coagulation/Flocculation (CF) integrated with Direct Contact Membrane Distillation (DCMD). The proof-of-concept tests were studied with synthetic solutions of reactive and disperse black dyes at different concentrations, and real textile wastewater from the discharge machine and the equalization tank. Results showed that CF-DCMD exhibited higher permeate fluxes (up to 40%) than single DCMD and maximum color rejection rates (100%). Moreover, CF-DCMD enabled water reclamation from cotton and polyester dyeing wastewater which was not possible by MD (Membrane Distillation). The integrated system showed excellent chemical oxygen demand removal capacity, total suspended solids, turbidity, conductivity reduction, and removed any signs of toxicity from the tested wastewater. The coagulation/flocculation process prior to the MD reduced the fouling factor for all wastewater, highlighting the equalization tank where a reduction of around 72% was observed, achieving the goal of reducing fouling and increasing the efficiency of the MD. Membrane characterization indicated that CF-DCMD confirmed less fouling of membranes than single DCMD. Thus, this study allows to understand the potential and robustness of the CF-DCMD process in the treatment of textile wastewater and that it is possible to develop alternative technologies to treat complex wastewater effectively.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to prepare a composite film made of montmorillonite clay and natural pectin from passion fruit peels to remove lead from an aqueous solution. A gas adsorption analyzer, a field emission scanning electron microscope, a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, and a texture analyzer are the devices for the adsorbent’s characterization. Adding montmorillonite to the pectin film produced the composite film, which has more strength. Batch tests were carried out to study the effects of contact time, the initial pH solution, the initial metal concentration, and temperature on adsorption. Under an optimal condition, a contact time of 150 min with an initial pH solution of 5.0, an initial metal concentration of 100 mg/L, and a temperature of 313 K results in the optimum amount of lead taken up at 110.03 mg/g. The experimental data follows the Langmuir isotherm and the pseudo-second-order equations. 0.1 M HCl used as the eluent can remove about 90.54% of the lead ions from the used adsorbent. The outcomes show that the composite film can remove lead ions from contaminated water and allow reuse.

ABSTRACT With growing demand for more sustainable dairy manure management methods, a system involving hydrothermal carbonization (HTC), membrane distillation (MD), and algae cultivation for resource recovery from dairy manure was partially investigated in this study. Two algal species, Arthrospira maxima and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, were cultivated on the hydrothermal aqueous product (HAP) of dairy manure, but the former requires a carbonate buffer for successful cultivation. The spent HAP after algae cultivation was treated using MD where the operational efficacy and distillate quality were assessed. Comparing the MD performance of the buffered HAP to the unbuffered HAP revealed the addition of the buffer decreased water flux and distillate quality, but cultivation with A. maxima reversed these effects and produced distillates with reduced COD, TN, and NH3 concentrations. C. reinhardtii cultivation resulted in increased distillate COD and NH3 concentrations compared to the unbuffered HAP. Fluorescence was used to broadly characterize the organic components of the feed and distillate streams. Regrowth experiments with A. maxima revealed the spent buffer can successfully be recycled, but fresh nutrients are required.

ABSTRACT Eflornithine (2-fluoromethyl-DL-ornithine) is a potent and irreversible inhibitor that selectively targets ornithine decarboxylase, a key enzyme in the polyamine biosynthesis pathway. Due to the lack of chromophoric moiety in the eflornithine structure, its detection via UV detector is difficult. Thus, direct high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) separation of enantiomers of Eflornithine is not feasible, and pre-column derivatization is required for its determination through chiral HPLC columns. We developed an indirect HPLC method using (S)-α-ethyl benzylamine as a chiral derivatizing agent for the enantioseparation of Eflornithine. The diastereomers thus produced were then separated via LiChrospher C18 column (5 μm particle size, L × I. D. 25 cm × 4.6 mm). The mobile phase used was a mixture of acetonitrile and 0.1% aq. TFA and varied in linear gradients of 30–70% of acetonitrile for 30 min run at a flow rate of 1.0 mL min−1 and UV detection at 320 nm. The separation parameters were optimized by altering the mobile phase composition and flow rate. The findings revealed that the chromatographic separation was accomplished within 15 min, with resolution values greater than 4.5 for Eflornithine enantiomers. The detection and quantitation limits were 9.26 ng mL− 1 and 18.52 ng mL− 1 for Eflornithine enantiomers.
依氟鸟氨酸(2-氟甲基- dl -鸟氨酸)是一种有效的不可逆抑制剂,可选择性靶向鸟氨酸脱羧酶,鸟氨酸脱羧酶是多胺生物合成途径中的关键酶。由于依氟鸟氨酸结构中缺乏显色基团,用紫外检测器对其进行检测是困难的。因此,用高效液相色谱法直接分离依氟鸟氨酸对映体是不可行的,需要通过手性高效液相色谱柱进行柱前衍生化。以(S)-α-乙基苄胺为手性衍生剂,建立了间接高效液相色谱法分离依氟鸟氨酸对映体的方法。用LiChrospher C18色谱柱(粒径5 μm, L × I)分离所得的非对映体。D. 25 cm × 4.6 mm)。流动相为乙腈和0.1% aq. TFA的混合物,以30 - 70%乙腈为线性梯度变化30 min,流速为1.0 mL min - 1,紫外检测波长为320 nm。通过改变流动相组成和流速对分离参数进行优化。结果表明,色谱分离在15 min内完成,依氟鸟氨酸对映体的分辨率值大于4.5。依氟鸟氨酸对映体的检测限和定量限分别为9.26 ng mL - 1和18.52 ng mL - 1。

ABSTRACT The intention of providing this paper is to conduct an experimental investigation into the hydrodynamics of the push valve centrifugal tray, which has a new configuration, in order to retrofit the purpose of a stripper oil sweeting of Lavan oil manufacture. Experiments were performed on the commercial scale column by an air-water simulator rig. Two different pilot plants with 1.2 m and 3 m diameter have been used for experiments. Dry pressure drop, total pressure drop, and weeping data are presented on the commercial scale 1.2 m diameter column. The results compared with a sieve tray. Some correlations for the pressure drop and the weeping are presented. A pilot plant with a large diameter, 3 m, was also installed to predict the pressure drop with the exact characterization as the stripper column of Lavan oil manufacture to predict its pressure drop. The experiments were carried out in two different outlet weir heights, 0, 3 cm, and 2- and 4%-holes areas at various operating conditions. This article also introduced a new downcomer and tray design of the centrifugal tray. Experiments and industrial reports of this type of centrifugal tray show that it can be used in revamping and retrofit projects.

ABSTRACT Crude oil extraction is a hot topic concerning industrial applications. The extracted oil emulsions treatment with demulsifier is demanded for markets. Herein, we prepared a naturally based demulsifier comprising calcium phosphates from coralline materials. The XRD verifies successful formation of the intended calcium phosphate with characteristic peaks where the most intense peak at 30º for (211) plane matched well with card and former research. The SEM reveals the formation of the spherical, flowery shape. Zeta potential reaches −10 mV indicating reasonable stability of the demulsifier. For examining the separation efficiency using the bottle test, few drops of the demulsifer (~100 ppm) are enough for the separation at 55°C for 40 min in the water bath. Inherently, the separation initiates within few seconds. The extended results for the demulsifier are applied onto the ASH field (Borg Alarab, Egypt) and compared to other companies reports. The optimum separation efficiency for salt and water contents from crude oil reaches 9 PTB and 0.1%vol, respectively, after treatment by heating unit (Sigma package). The recommended values for these factors are 30 PTB and 2%vol. The efficiency of separation exceeds 99% for water and salt. This direction is significantly important for oil production and industry.

ABSTRACT Herein, an effective sol-gel strategy was utilized for the synthesis of atypical Polypyrrole/EDTA-Zirconium(IV) phosphate (PYZP) and Polypyrrole/EDTA-Zirconium(IV) iodate (PYZI) composite cation exchangers. The structural aspects, surface morphology, elemental composition and thermal constancy of the aforementioned composite cation exchangers were scrutinized through UV-Visible, FT-IR, XRD, SEM with EDAX, TEM and TGA studies. As-prepared conducting polymeric composite materials divulged not only excellent ion exchange capacity but also better thermal stability, electrical conductivity and notable selectivity toward Pb(II) ions as compared to their individual inorganic moieties. The improvement in ion exchange capacities (IEC) for distinct alkali metal ions of PYZP composite cation exchanger were Li+, 2.89; Na+, 3.15; K+, 3.34 meq/g and PYZI composite cation exchanger were Li+, 2.60; Na+, 2.86; K+, 3.21 meq/g, separately. It was concluded that PYZP composite acts as an excellent cation exchanger compared to PYZI composite due to the presence of ionogenic phosphate anions. The partition competency of the composite materials toward distinct metal ions in diverse solvent systems exposed the separation potentials of metal ions of systematic prominence from a specified binary combinations encompassing Cd(II) – Pb(II), Hg(II) – Pb(II), Cu(II) – Pb(II), Zn(II) – Pb(II), Ni(II) – Pb(II) and Fe(III) – Pb(II) metal ions. Subsequently, the conducting competency was examined through AC-Impedance spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT The wastewater reuse strategy has the advantage of providing an effective resource to reduce water deficits, protect natural resources and alleviate future water shortages caused by climate change. In many arid and semi-arid regions, water reuse provides the majority of irrigation water, which is why appropriate treatment techniques are needed. These include planted filters, with restricted reuse of agricultural treated water. The main innovation is therefore to develop a new technique with reduced operating costs and increased efficiency for wastewater treatment that can be used in different sectors (household, industrial, washing centers…). The current work aimed to assess the performance of coupling planted Filters with anodic oxidation on platinum to remove contaminants and pathogens from urban wastewater effluents. To evaluate the efficiency of this hybrid process, urban sewage was first treated by filters planted with reeds, then by anodic oxidation on platinum using photovoltaic panels. Results showed that this treatment system allows a complete elimination of organic matter, ammonium nitrogen, and pathogenic bacteria. Removal rates were ~ 100% for COD, ~100% for BOD, ~100% for NH4 +, 93.24% for NO3 −, and ~100% for TC, FC, and FS. Due to the satisfactory performance, treated water can be reused without restriction in different sectors.
