Renewable Resource Biosorbents for Pollutant Removal from Aqueous Effluents in Column Mode

Lavinia Tofan et al.

Summary: This work focuses on continuous flow systems using biosorbents derived from renewable resources for the green removal of chemical pollutants in water. The discussions cover renewable resources, biosorbents based on renewable resources, and dynamic biosorption. The effectiveness of the biosorbents in removing heavy metal ions and dyes from synthetic aqueous solutions and real wastewaters is evaluated based on breakthrough curves. Recommendations are provided for the implementation of renewable resource-based biosorbents in practical column strategies for wastewater treatment.

The decomposition and emission factors of a wide range of PFAS in diverse, contaminated organic waste fractions undergoing dry pyrolysis

Erlend Sormo et al.

Summary: The current treatment options for organic waste contaminated with PFAS include incineration, composting, and landfilling, all of which result in emissions. Dry pyrolysis is a promising alternative, but the fate of PFAS during this process is uncertain. This study developed a robust method for determining PFAS in complex matrices and established a mass balance for 56 different PFAS during full-scale pyrolysis of various wastes. PFAS were present in all wastes but were removed by at least 96.9% through pyrolysis. Residual PFAS were detected in biochars obtained at temperatures up to 750 degrees C, with emissions consisting mainly of short chain PFAS.

Is sorption technology fit for the removal of persistent and mobile organic contaminants from water?

Benedikt M. Aumeier et al.

Summary: Persistent, Mobile, and Toxic (PMT) and very persistent and very mobile (vPvM) substances pose an increasing threat to water security and safety. These substances have distinct characteristics that make their sorption to traditional sorbents challenging. This article critically reviews the interactions between organic compounds and activated carbon, and explores alternative sorbent materials for PMT and vPvM removal. The potential for sorbent regeneration and the benefits of coupling sorption to destructive or separation technologies are also discussed.

Use of exhausted biosorbent ash as ecofriendly filler in natural rubber

Summary: Biosorption is a promising clean-up technology for heavy metal-laden wastewater, but its commercial application is limited due to the generation of toxic waste. In this research, a solution of incinerating the used adsorbent and using the obtained ash as a filler in rubber production was proposed. The results demonstrated that the addition of biosorbent ash did not significantly affect the mechanical and elastic properties of rubber, and it was environmentally safe.

Low-cost agricultural wastes (orange peels) for the synthesis and characterization of activated carbon biosorbents in the removal of pharmaceuticals in multi-component mixtures from aqueous matrices

Neda Malesic-Eleftheriadou et al.

Summary: Bio-based carbons derived from biomass materials have gained attention due to their abundance, processability, tunable surface properties, and low cost. This study proposes a simple, low-cost method for synthesizing ultrahigh surface area activated carbon from orange peels. Three different biosorbents were synthesized and characterized using various techniques. The adsorption capacity for a mixture of five NSAIDs was evaluated, and the effects of pH, contact time, and initial concentration were investigated. The findings suggest that acidic pH, higher temperature, and specific adsorption isotherms and kinetics models are favorable for the adsorption process.

Summary: The study presented the synthesis of template-supported nanoadsorbents consisting of mesoporous organosilica (MPOS) to remove methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) from water effectively. The MPOS showed high adsorption capacities for both pollutants with a multilayered sorption mechanism and demonstrated reusability with only a slight decline in adsorption efficiency after five cycles. This eco-friendly approach and efficient removal of pollutants make MPOS a competent nanoadsorbent for water decontamination.
