The adsorption difference of water and methane by long-flame coal is compared and analyzed by molecular simulation. The results show that when the single-component isothermal adsorption pressure is less than 15 MPa, the adsorption capacity of CH4 and H2O increases gradually with the increase of the adsorption pressure, and the average adsorption amount of H2O is much higher than that of CH4; after more than 15 MPa, the average adsorption amount of CH4 and H2O is saturated. When the two-component isothermal adsorption pressure is less than 0.7595 MPa, the long-flame coal molecule can adsorb both CH4 and H2O; after more than 0.7595 MPa, the average adsorption amount of H2O is much larger than that of CH4 indicating that H2O is in a dominant position in the competitive adsorption with CH4.

In this work, biochar produced from breadfruit leaves was utilized to remove the toxic Congo red dye. XRD, FTIR, and FESEM-EDX were implemented to characterize the biochar. Response surface methodology (RSM) and the Box-Behnken design (BBD) techniques were used to evaluate Congo red’s optimum adsorption efficiency. The adsorption of Congo red was studied by varying dye concentrations (5–50 mg/L), times (30–240 min), pH (6–9), and dosages (0.5–2 g/100 mL). X-ray diffractometer results show that the structure of biochar is amorphous. The biochar exhibited unbounded OH, aliphatic CH group, and C=O stretch, as shown by the band peaks at 3340 cm−1, 2924 cm−1, and 1625 cm−1 intensities. RSM-BBD design results showed maximum removal efficiency of 99.96% for Congo red at pH 6.37, dye concentration 45 mg/L, time 105 min, and dosage 1.92 g, respectively. The adsorption of Congo red by biochar was successfully modeled using the Langmuir model and pseudo-second-order model. The biochar produced from breadfruit leaves exhibited a high adsorption capacity of 17.81 mg/g for Congo red adsorption. It suggests that the adsorption is both homogenous monolayer and physicochemical.

Nano-zero-valent iron (nZVI) can be used to remove nitrate nitrogen (NO3-N) from groundwater. However, it has low reduction efficiency owing to its oxidation and aggregation characteristics. Thus, nZVI-loaded material is used to alleviate these drawbacks. In this study, nZVI-coated attapulgite (ATP) was prepared for the removal of NO3-N from groundwater. ATP-nZVI was prepared using the chemical liquid deposition-coreduction method. The prepared materials were characterized by SEM, XRD, and XPS analyses, which confirmed that the aluminum silicate particles in the ATP structure are effective carriers of nZVI and effectively inhibit self-consumption caused by the oxidation and aggregation of nZVI. The batch experiments examined experimental samples containing 30 mg/L nitrate and analyzed the effects of various parameters, including the material, mass ratio, initial pH, initial temperature, and coexisting anions on the NO3-N removal efficiency. The results showed that the optimal removal rate of the composite was 78.61%, which is higher than that using the same amount of ATP, iron powder, and nZVI. When the mass ratio of ATP to nZVI was 1 : 1, the NO3-N removal efficiency was the highest. When the pH value increased from 3 to 9, the NO3-N removal rate decreased, while an increase in the reaction temperature promoted NO3-N removal. The order of the inhibitory effect of coexisting anions on NO3-N removal by various nanoions was PO43–>CO32–>SO42–>Cl–. The adsorption kinetic model fitting results indicated that the chemisorption of electron exchange between ATP and nZVI in NO3-N removal was the main rate-limiting step in the reaction. This study demonstrates the potential of the prepared ATP-nZVI composite for NO3-N removal from groundwater.

The uptake of radiocesium (RCs) by plants is key to the assessment of its environmental risk. However, the transfer process of RCs in the water-vegetable system still remains unclear. In this work, the uptake and accumulation processes of Cs+ (0-10 mM) in lettuce were explored under different conditions by using hydroponics. The results showed that the higher exposure concentration of Cs+ could lead to a faster uptake rate and would be beneficial to the uptake and accumulation of Cs+. The uptake of K+ by roots and leaves was inhibited significantly when Cs+ concentration increased, but unapparent for Ca2+ and Mg2+. It was found that the higher K+ and Ca2+ concentration was, the higher inhibition was found for the uptake of Cs+ in root. The uptake of Cs+ leads the decrease of chlorophyll content and brought a negative effect on plant photosynthesis, consequently, a negative effect on lettuce morphology and obvious decrease of biomass and root length. The contents of glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), and root vitality were increasing during the growth following stress of high concentrations of Cs+, which caused stresses on the antioxidant system of lettuce. The enrichment coefficient for Cs+ in leaves was in the range of 8-217. Moreover, the transfer factor was in the range of 0.114-0.828, which suggested that the high Cs+ concentration could enhance the transfer of Cs+ from lettuce root to leaf. This study provides more information on the transfer of RCs from water to food chain, promoting the understanding of the potential risk of RCs.

Methylene blue dye (MB dye) is a harmful contaminant for wastewater streams of industries and is harmful to human and aquatic life. An ecofriendly sugar templating process was used to generate porous bentonite/polydimethylsiloxane (PB) and porous magnetite nanoparticles/bentonite/polydimethylsiloxane (PBNP) composite absorbents to remove MB dye in this study. During the infiltration of PDMS solution into the sugar template in the vacuum chamber, bentonite and magnetite particles were integrated on the surface of the PDMS, and the porous structure was generated during the leaching out of sugar particles in water. The absorbents were characterized using Fourier infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The absence of the methyl bond at 2924 cm-1 and phenol bond at 3325 cm-1 in the FTIR spectra of the formed membrane proves that the food grade sugar was completely removed. The SEM images confirm that porosity was achieved as well as uniform mixing of the in the formation of composite. MB dye was effectively removed from wastewater using the as-prepared composite as absorbent. The removal efficiencies of the composite PBNP and PB were ~91% and ~85%, respectively. The experimental data was applied to pseudo-first-order (PFO) and pseudo-second-order (PSO) kinetic models as well as the Dubinin-Radushkevich, Harkins-Jura, and Elovich models for the adsorption isotherm. The data was found to fit the pseudo-second-order and Elovich models, respectively. The results show that the presence of magnetite nanoparticles improved MB dye removal significantly.

With the rapid development of industrialization, the amount of copper-containing wastewater is increasing, thereby posing a threat to the aquatic ecological environment and human health. Sludge biochar has received extensive concern in recent years due to its advantages of low cost and sustainability for the treatment of heavy-metal-containing wastewater. However, the heavy-metal-adsorption capacity of sludge biochar is limited. This study prepared a sodium pyrophosphate- (Na4P2O7-) modified municipal sludge-based biochar (SP-SBC) and evaluated its adsorption performance for Cu(II). Results showed that SP-SBC had higher yield, ash content, pH, Na and P content, and surface roughness than original sewage sludge biochar (SBC). The Cu(II)-adsorption capacity of SP-SBC was 4.55 times than that of SBC at room temperature. For Cu(II) adsorption by SP-SBC, the kinetics and isotherms conformed to the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir–Freundlich model, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity of SP-SBC was 38.49 mg·g−1 at 35°C. Cu(II) adsorption by SP-SBC primarily involved ion exchange, electrostatic attraction, and precipitation. The desired adsorption performance for Cu(II) in the fixed-bed column experiment indicated that SP-SBC can be reused and had good application potential to treat copper-containing wastewater. Overall, this study provided a desirable sorbent (SP-SBC) for Cu(II) removal, as well as a new simple chemical-modification method for SBC to enhance Cu(II)-adsorption capacity.

Effective and sustainable separation processes for critical metals, especially for the physicochemically similar elements nickel and cobalt in battery recycling, are of great interest in the future. Selective adsorption represents a highly potential process for this purpose. In this publication, a silica adsorbent functionalized with an amino-polycarboxylate derivate (HSU331) was investigated regarding the selective adsorption of Ni(II) in the presence of Co(II) in acidic solution (pH range at equilibrium 1.8–2.3) at elevated temperature. Comparable maximum equilibrium loadings ( q max ) for Ni(II) and Co(II) of 0.59 μmol(Ni(II)) · μmol(Ligand)-1 (18.3 mg(Ni(II)) · g(Adsorbent)-1), and 0.52 μmol(Co(II)) · μmol(Ligand)-1 (16.0 mg(Co(II)) · g(Adsorbent)-1), respectively, were achieved at T = 50°C in single-component experiments. Under competitive conditions, the Ni(II) loading remained constant at 0.60 μmol(Ni(II)) · μmol(Ligand)-1 (18.4 mg(Ni(II)) · g(Adsorbent)-1), while the Co(II) loading drastically decreased to 0.09 μmol(Co(II)) · μmol(Ligand)-1 (2.7 mg(Co(II)) · g(Adsorbent)-1) in an equimolar dual-component system.

As a traditional dye, malachite green (MG) poses a threat to our environment and health. To decolorize MG, a composite ceramsite adsorbent composed of coal fly ash (CFA), sewage treatment sludge (STS), and waste glass (WG) with a quality ratio of 3 : 3 : 4, respectively, was prepared. The optimal preparation parameters were determined as follows: preheating temperature = 600 ° C , sintering temperature = 1157 ° C , and sintering time = 17 min . Under optimal conditions, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images show that the X-Com-ceramsite sample exhibits rough features and a porous structure. The obtained X-Com-ceramsite has a good MG decolorization effect (92% decolorization rate with an initial MG concentration of 56.876 mg/L). The q max value of MG can reach up to 37.6 mg/g. The retention degree of MG in the X-Com-ceramsite with a relatively higher pH is stronger, and the adsorption process is spontaneous and endothermic. Synchronous fluorescence, two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) proved that the sensitivity of the C-O/C-O-O functional groups of the carbohydrates on the surface of the X-Com-ceramsite has a higher binding affinity toward MG as the initial concentration of MG changes.
孔雀石绿作为一种传统染料,对我们的环境和健康构成了威胁。为脱色MG,制备了由粉煤灰(CFA)、污水处理污泥(STS)和废玻璃(WG)组成的复合陶粒吸附剂,质量比分别为3:3:4。确定了最佳制备参数:预热温度600℃,烧结温度1157℃,烧结时间17 min。在最佳条件下,扫描电子显微镜(SEM)图像显示x - com -陶粒样品具有粗糙的特征和多孔结构。所制得的x - com陶粒具有良好的MG脱色效果,初始MG浓度为56.876 MG /L,脱色率达92%。MG的q最大值可达37.6 MG /g。MG在pH相对较高的x - com陶粒中的保留程度较强,吸附过程为自发吸热吸附。同步荧光、二维相关光谱(2D-COS)和傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)证明,随着MG初始浓度的变化,x - com -陶粒表面碳水化合物的C-O/C-O- o官能团对MG的结合亲和力更高。

The optimal preparation parameters were determined as follows: preheating \u0000 \u0000 temperature\u0000 =\u0000 600\u0000 °\u0000 C\u0000 \u0000 , sintering \u0000 \u0000 temperature\u0000 =\u0000 1157\u0000 °\u0000 C\u0000 \u0000 , and sintering \u0000 \u0000 time\u0000 =\u0000 17\u0000 \u0000 min\u0000 \u0000 . Under optimal conditions, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images show that the X-Com-ceramsite sample exhibits rough features and a porous structure. The obtained X-Com-ceramsite has a good MG decolorization effect (92% decolorization rate with an initial MG concentration of 56.876 mg/L). The \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 q\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 max\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 \u0000 value of MG can reach up to 37.6 mg/g. The retention degree of MG in the X-Com-ceramsite with a relatively higher pH is stronger, and the adsorption process is spontaneous and endothermic. Synchronous fluorescence, two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2D-COS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) proved that the sensitivity of the C-O/C-O-O functional groups of the carbohydrates on the surface of the X-Com-ceramsite has a higher binding affinity toward MG as the initial concentration of MG changes.","PeriodicalId":7279,"journal":{"name":"Adsorption Science & Technology","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82610383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pollution due to dyes from textile sector is one of the major issues faced worldwide. This study was focused on the removal of the reactive dye, Drimaren Turquoise CL-B using Schizophyllum commune, a white rot fungus (WRF) keeping in mind the current environmental conditions. Different parameters like pH, sources of carbon & nitrogen, temperature, concentration of dye and C/N ratio were used to investigate their effect on the process. Maximum dye removal of 95.45% was obtained at pH 4.5, temperature 35°C, inoculum size 3 mL, veratryl alcohol (mediator), glucose (carbon source) and ammonium nitrate (nitrogen source). The enzyme activity was determined by employing enzyme assay. Laccase and Lignin peroxidase (LiP) activity was low while Manganese peroxidase (MnP) activity was highest. Maximum bio-sorption was achieved at pH 1 and 313 K. The pseudo-2nd-order kinetic model & Freundlich isotherm was best suited for the process of removal of dye. From these data, it is concluded that white rot fungus could possibly be the excellent biomaterial for elimination of synthetic dyes from wastewater.

Advances in friction materials are imposed on developing multiceramic reinforced hybrid nanocomposites with superior tribomechanical properties. The silver-based matrix metals are gained significance in various applications like bearing, ratchet, and electrical contacts due to their high frictional resistance and good thermal and chemical stability compared to traditional metals. The present research is to develop silver-based hybrid nanocomposites containing alumina (Al2O3) and silicon carbide (SiC) nanoparticles of 50 nm mixing with the ratio of 0 wt% Al2O3/0 wt% SiC, 5 wt% Al2O3/0 wt% SiC, and 5 wt% Al2O3/5 wt% SiC via the semisolid vacuum stir-cast technique. The vacuum technology minimizes casting defects and increases composite properties. The casted composite samples are subjected to study the effect of reinforcement on thermal adsorption, conductivity, diffusivity, and frictional resistance. The composite containing 5 wt% Al2O3np/5 wt% SiCnp is to find optimum thermal and frictional behaviour. The thermal adsorption and frictional resistance are increased by 30% and 27% compared to unreinforced cast silver. The Ag/5 wt% Al2O3np/5 wt% SiCnp hybrid nanocomposite is recommended for automotive friction-bearing applications.
