摘要:
Environment functional materials have been widely used, but whether their effects on the contaminated environment could facilitate phytoremediation is not yet well understood. In this study, starch stabilized nanoscale zerovalent iron (SN), multiwall carbon nanotubes (MW) and tea waste derived biochar (TB) were used to facilitate the phytoremediation of cadmium (Cd) contaminated sediments by Boehmeria nivea (L.) Gaudich. Results showed that 100 mg/kg SN, 500 mg/kg MW and 500 mg/kg TB facilitated phytoremediation, as evidenced by increasing Cd accumulation and/or promoting plant growth. These concentrations of materials increased the reducible fraction of Cd by 9–10% and decreased the oxidizable proportion of Cd by 48–52%, indicating the improvement of Cd bioavailability through converting the oxidizable Cd into reducible form. The activities of urease, phosphatase and catalase, which related to nutrient utilization and oxidative stress alleviation, increased by 20–24%, 25–26%, and 8–9% in the sediments treated with 500 mg/kg MW and 500 mg/kg TB, respectively. In addition, the 16S rRNA gene sequence results showed that these concentrations of materials changed the bacterial diversity. The abundance of Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria, Nitrospirae and Firmicutes were increased by some of the applied materials, which could promote plant growth, change Cd bioavailability and reduce Cd toxicity. These findings indicated that the applied environment functional materials could facilitate the phytoremediation of Cd contaminated environment by changing Cd fractions, sediments properties and bacterial community structure. © 2020 The Authors

摘要:
The presence of antibiotics in different water sources is a ubiquitous, global concern. The persistence of trace amounts of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance of microbial pathogens and jeopardize the health of ecosystems. One possible solution is the photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics from water systems by titanium dioxide (TiO2) photocatalysis. In recent years, heterogeneous TiO2 has been examined for the photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) under UV/visible light irradiation. This review offers an overview of the recent advances in visible light-activated TiO2 for the photocatalytic degradation of CIP and the factors impacting the photocatalytic behavior. In particular, we focused on the structural elucidation of reaction intermediates, and we aimed to determine research gaps in the utilization of visible light-activated TiO2 for water treatment. Future research directions, including the ecotoxicological effect of the photocatalytic degradation intermediates, the thermodynamical and kinetic mechanisms of the photocatalytic degradation process, and future applications of heterogeneous TiO2 photocatalysts, are also proposed. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

摘要:
Cr(VI) contamination has posed great threat to both the ecosystem and human health for its carcinogenic and mutagenic nature. A highly effective adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) was prepared and its adsorption mechanism was thoroughly discussed in this study. In detail, magnetic BiFeO3 and kenaf biochar were loaded on cross-linked chitosan to obtain chitosan-kenaf biochar@BiFeO3 (CKB) for improving adsorption capacity towards Cr(VI). The adsorption process of Cr(VI) onto CKB was evaluated as a function of the pH, the existence of competing ions, the initial concentration of Cr(VI) and contact time. The results show that CKB exhibits the highest adsorption capacity under the optimal pH 2.0. The presence of competing ions such as Ca2+, NO3-, SO42-, and Cl- decreases the adsorption capacity; among them, Ca2+ and NO3- show the greatest hindrance. By studying the effect of initial Cr(VI) concentration on the adsorption capacity, it was found that CKB in the solution was enough to remove Cr(VI) for all treatments (10−200 mg/L). The adsorption experimental data were well fitted with pseudo-first-order model, suggesting that chemisorption is not the dominant rate-limiting step. Freundlich isotherm model can better explain the adsorption process, indicating a non-ideal adsorption towards Cr(VI) on a heterogeneous surface of CKB. A 25-1 Fractional Factorial Design (FFD) showed that pH and initial concentration of Cr(VI) have significant influence on Cr(VI) adsorption in our reaction system. In general, excellent adsorption efficiency of CKB indicates that it may be a good candidate for the remediation of Cr(VI)-contaminating wastewater. © 2020 by the authors.

摘要:
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on sulfate radicals (SO4∙-) is being actively investigated as an effective technology for aqueous organic pollutants degradation. In this work, a novel iron-doped graphitic biochar (Fe@GBC), which was synthesized by one-step method using biomass-derived biochar as precursor and potassium ferrate (K2FeO4) as activator, was applied to activate persulfate (PS) for the degradation of 17β-estradiol (E2). The characterizations indicated that Fe@GBC was successfully doped with iron particles and possessed a porous graphitic carbon structure. In order to evaluate the applicability of Fe@GBC, the effects of various reaction parameters, such as initial pH, catalyst dosage, PS concentration, as well as the reusability and stability of Fe@GBC were systematically investigated. With the synergistic effect of doped iron particles and porous graphitic carbon structure, Fe@GBC exhibited a high activity for PS activation and great degradation capacity to E2 (almost 100% degradation efficiency within 90 min). Through radical quenching experiments and electron spin resonance (ESR) analysis, it found that both SO4∙- and OH∙ were responsible for the degradation of E2, while SO4∙- played a dominant role. Moreover, Fe@GBC/PS also exhibited good degradation performance in complex water matrices. Overall, the facile one-step synthetic strategy and superior performance make Fe@GBC an alternative catalyst for persulfate activation and aqueous pollutants degradation. © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

摘要:
A novel ternary composite of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4)/graphene oxide (GO) sheets/BiFeO3 (CNGB) with highly enhanced visible-light photocatalytic activity toward Cr(Vl) photoreduction is prepared and characterized. The characterization and photocatalysis experiments corroborate its reasonable band gap, efficient charge separation and transfer, widened visible-light adsorption, easy solid-liquid separation, good stability and superior catalytic activity of CNGB. Three CNGB samples with different ratios of g-C3N4 and BiFeO3 (CNGB-1, -2, -3 with 2:4, 3:3, and 4:2, respectively), though possessing different adsorption ability, eventually remove all Cr(Vl) ions via photocatalysis within 90 min. The catalytic efficiency of the composite is the highest at pH 2; increases in pH decrease the catalytic ability. The inorganic anions such as SO4-, Cl-, and NO3- only slightly affects the photocatalytic process. The matching of the band structure between BiFeO3 and g-C3N4 generates efficient photogenerated electron migration from the conduction band of g-C3N4 to that of BiFeO3, which is also facilitated by the electron bridging and collecting effects of GO, and holes transfer from the valence band of BiFeO3 to that of g-C3N4, yielding the efficient separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and the subsequent enhancement of photocatalytic activity. The research provides a theoretical basis and technical support for the development of photocatalytic technologies for effective application in wastewater treatment and Cr-contaminated water restoration.

摘要:
The authors describe a method for synthesis of a nanomaterial consisting of porous carbon encapsulated Mg-Al-Si alloy (denoted as Mg-Al-Si@PC) nanocluster. The nanocluster was synthesis by a solvothermal reaction, followed by high-temperature annealing. The nanoclusters were used as a novel immobilization platform for electrochemical sensing of rutin. The electrochemical behavior of rutin at a modified electrode was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The modified electrode demonstrates a high electrocatalytic activity toward rutin oxidation at a relatively low working potential (0.6 vs. Ag/AgCl). Under optimal conditions, the sensor has a linear response in the 1–10μM rutin concentration range, and a 0.01μM lower detection limit (at an S/N ratio of 3). It was successfully applied to the quantification of rutin in pharmaceutical tablets, and satisfactory results were obtained. Furthermore, the results correspond with those with the standard method and with the amounts indicated by the producer, respectively.

摘要:
A novel graphene oxide supported activated magnetic biochar (GO-AMBC) is fabricated for 17 beta-estradiol (E2) removal from aqueous solution by grafting graphene oxide (GO) and magnetite nanoparticles onto the activated biochar surface with a one-step activation, magnetization, and carbonization method. GO-AMBC is characterized using SEM, TEM, FTIR, VSM, XRD, XPS, BET surface area and zeta potential measurements. The characterization results show that GO-AMBC possesses a larger surface area and more oxygen-containing functional groups than the unmodified biochar. When the E2 initial concentration is 6 mg/L, its adsorption capacity by GO-AMBC (46.22 mg/g) is more than two times higher than that of pristine biochar (23.09 mg/g) at 298 K and pH = 7.0. Adsorption results show that E2 uptake follows by pseudo-second-order kinetic and Freundlich isothermal models. Thermodynamic analysis indicates that the adsorption process is spontaneous and exothermic. E2 removal by GO-AMBC is significantly affected by the actual water conditions, including solution pH, ionic strength, and organic acids. Among them, organic acids have obvious inhibition effect on E2 removal, and the inhibition effect by oxalate is stronger than that of benzoate. The adsorption mechanism of E2 on GO-AMBC is mainly controlled by hydrogen bonds, electrostatic and pi-pi interactions. The experimental results of this study and comparative analysis with other adsorbents suggest that GO-AMBC is an economical, efficient and recyclable adsorbent and has great potential for E2 removal from contaminated water.

摘要:
In this study, Broussonetia papyrifera leaves collected from land near a restored manganese mine in the Hunan Province of China were converted into biochar under high-temperature anaerobic conditions, regeneration and utilization of agricultural and forest waste, and applied to the prevention of eutrophication. The physicochemical properties of the B. papyrifera biochar were characterized using Micromeritics 3Flex analyzer, scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), zeta potential meter (zeta), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The effects of pH, ionic strength, coexisting ions, time, initial concentration, and temperature on the decontamination process of phosphate in water were studied. The results indicated that adsorption was enhanced under alkaline conditions. The pseudo-second-order model of adsorption kinetics was applied to illustrate the adsorption processes. The chemical adsorption reaction was the main rate-limiting step in the adsorption process. Isotherm experimental data were best fitted by the Freundlich model at 25°C and by the Langmuir model at 35°C. The phosphate combined with B. papyrifera biochar mainly in the forms of exchangeable phosphorus (Ex-P), Al-bound phosphorus (Al-P), and Fe-bound phosphorus (Fe-P). These results indicate that B. papyrifera biochar is a suitable candidate for the treatment of a eutrophic body of water. © 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.

摘要:
In this work, we report double-shelled yolk-shell Si@C structure as a high-performance electrochemical sensing material for heavy metal ions. A SiO2-assisted polybenzoxazine (PB) coating strategy is used to synthesize highly monodispersed Si@C microspheres. After thermal carbonization of PB layers and selective removal of the SiO2 layers, Si@C microspheres were prepared. The resultant Si@C microspheres exhibit uniform spherical morphology and clearly double-shelled yolk-shell structures. The obtained Si@C microspheres are employed to prepare the chemically modified electrode for the sensitive determination of Cd(II) and Pb(II). By the method of anodic stripping voltammetry, the Si@C-based electrode shows a very wide linear dynamic range for target ions (e.g., 0.5–400 μg L−1 for Cd(II) and Pb(II)) and low limit of detections (e.g., 0.068 μg L−1 for Cd(II) and for 0.105 μg L−1 Pb(II)). The remarkable results, such as excellent resistance to interference ions, good repeatability, and reproducibility were also obtained. Furthermore, compared with those Cd(II) and Pb(II) sensors known in the literature, the analytical performance of Si@C-based electrode is better. Finally, when further used to determine Cd(II) and Pb(II) in tap water and lake water, the results of fabricated electrode successfully achieve good consistency with the data obtained from inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). © 2019 Elsevier B.V.

摘要:
In this study, exogenous spermidine role on Salix matsudana tolerance to cadmium was evaluated. Spermidine and cadmium presented antagonistic effects on the biomass, copper and zinc concentrations in S. matsudana. cadmium mainly distributed in the cell wall of subcellular fraction; 46.97%–60.43% of cadmium existed in a sodium chloride-extracted form. Cadmium contents in roots, leaves, and twigs ranged from 2002.67 to 3961.00, 111.59 to 229.72, and 102.56 to 221.27 mg/kg, respectively. Spermidine application elevated cadmium concentrations in the roots, cuttings, and cell wall and the ratio of deionized water-extracted cadmium, but decreased cadmium levels in the twigs and leaves and the fractions of cadmium extracted by ethanol and sodium chloride, respectively. Putrescine and malondialdehyde were important indicators of cadmium-induced oxidative damage. Exogenous spermidine alleviated the accumulation of superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide, malondialdehyde via promoting the levels of spermidine, soluble protein, superoxide dismutase, reductive ascorbate, glutathione reductase, and glutathione peroxidase in S. matsudana leaves under the corresponding cadmium stress. The results indicated that S. matsudana was a candidate for cadmium rhizoremediation and extraction in leaves; the spermidine application enhanced the cadmium tolerance of S. matsudana through promoting cadmium accumulation in roots, cell wall, and less bioactive chemical forms and the antioxidative ability. © 2018, © 2018 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

摘要:
In this study, Box-Behnken design (BBD) was employed to optimize the process for H<inf>3</inf>PO<inf>4</inf>-activated Typha angustifolia activated carbon (TAC) production and Cr removal by TAC;the removal mechanisms were discussed based on TAC characterization, and the regeneration evaluation was also conducted. The optimum preparation conditions were activated time of 1.5 h, temperature of 469.02 °C, and incubation ratio of 4, resulting in an experimental carbon yield of 38.23% and Cr removal of 90.01%. The optimum adsorption parameters were found to be 0.02 g/50 mL TAC, 80 mg/L Cr(VI), and 2.21 pH with the observed Cr adsorption capacity of 59.54 mg/g. The removal mechanisms involved coulombic attraction, ionic exchange, surface complexation, and reduction. The process of Cr(VI) adsorption was feasible, spontaneous, and endothermic in nature, and the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir isotherm models were more appropriate for the removal process. After five adsorption/desorption cycles, the Cr adsorption capacity on TAC reduced by only 24.37%. The results showed that BBD could successfully optimize TAC production and Cr removal, and TAC could be developed as a promising, eco-friendly, and effective adsorbent for Cr pollution control.<br/> ©2018 by the authors.

摘要:
BACKGROUND: This article reports the synthesis and characterisation of titanium dioxide-coated biochar composites (TBCs) by pyrolysing titanium dioxide-treated biomass prepared by a modified sol–gel method. Their adsorptive and photocatalytic activities were evaluated based on the removal of safranine T (ST) from an aqueous solution with/without UV-light irradiation. RESULTS: Characterisation studies suggested that TiO2 was successfully loaded on the biochar substrate. The biochar and TiO2 contents of the composite significantly affected its performance. The ST removal capabilities of the TBCs with 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5 g of the biomass are 1.7, 2.3, 7.2, and 2.3 times better than that of the raw biochar, respectively. Thus, the optimum amount of biomass in TBC-x was determined to be 2 g, with the corresponding sample exhibiting excellent stability, effectiveness over a wide pH range, and a maximum ST removal capacity of 226.7 mg g-1. CONCLUSION: The loading of TiO2 significantly enhanced the adsorption performance of biochar and the high specific surface area of the biochar synergistically promoted the photocatalytic activity of TiO2. Both adsorption and photocatalytic degradation were confirmed to contribute to the decolourisation of the aqueous solution because of the removal of ST, with the effect of adsorption being slightly higher than that of photocatalysis. The synthesised composite is a promising alternative material for removing chemical contaminants. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry. © 2017 Society of Chemical Industry

摘要:
BACKGROUD: In this work, graphene oxide (GO) was synthesized followed by a modified Hummers method and several characterization techniques were provided. Its adsorptive activity was evaluated based on the removal of Cu(II) from an aqueous solution. External influences were taken into account to further study the adsorption mechanism. RESULT: Characterization results revealed that GO was well prepared and a large amount of oxygen-containing functional groups were introduced. The Cu(II) adsorption increased with increasing solution pH and precipitate at alkaline conditions. NaCl concentration improved copper adsorption at low pH. Formate reduced copper adsorption while benzoate improved the adsorption under low pH conditions. CONCLUSIONS: Here, GO performed Cu(II) adsorption well. The external conditions have different influences on the adsorption process. Experimental results demonstrate that GO is a promising alternative material for pollutants removal. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry

摘要:
Due to the widespread application of white-rot fungi for the treatment of pollutants, it's crucial to exploit the special effects of pollutants on the microbes. Here, we studied the effects of cadmium on calcium homeostasis in the most studied white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium. The response of P. chrysosporium to cadmium stress is concentration-dependent. A high concentration of cadmium caused the release of calcium from P. chrysosporium, while a hormesis effect was observed at a lower cadmium concentration (10 μM), which resulted in a significant increase in calcium uptake and reversed the decrease in cell viability. Calcium (50 μM) promoted cell viability (127.2% of control), which reflects that calcium can protect P. chrysosporium from environmental stress. Real-time changes in the Ca2+ and Cd2+ fluxes of P. chrysosporium were quantified using the noninvasive microtest technique. Ca2+ influx decreased significantly under cadmium exposure, and the Ca2+ channel was involved in Ca2+ and Cd2+ influx. The cadmium and/or calcium uptake results coupled with the real-time Ca2+ and Cd2+ influxes microscale signatures can enhance our knowledge of the homeostasis of P. chrysosporium with respect to cadmium stress, which may provide useful information for improving the bioremediation process. © 2018 Elsevier Inc.

摘要:
In this research, adsorption of two estrogens, namely, 17β-estradiol (E2) and 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2), by graphene nanosheets with different reduction degrees (rGOs) were investigated;and the effects of solution chemistry, such as natural organic matter (NOM), pH and ionic strength (IS), on the E2 and EE2 adsorption behaviors were also examined. Results indicated that adsorption abilities of estrogens increased with increasing the reduction degree of rGOs;the π–πstacking interaction could be considered as a predominant interaction to the enhanced adsorption capacities of rGOs. Among the solution chemistry, NOM exhibited the significant influence on estrogens adsorption, which suggested that once released into water environments, graphene materials will adsorb estrogens but with a lower adsorption ability than that in ultrapure water due to the ubiquitous presence of NOM in aquatic environments. Besides, estrogens adsorption on rGOs was pH-dependent, but the influence of acid rain would be insignificant due to slight change in low pH range. However, IS within the typical range in natural waters did not exhibit significant influence on the uptake of estrogens by rGOs. Above findings of this work might have significant implications for the fate and transport of estrogens with graphene materials in the environment.<br/> ©2017
