The spinel composite doped with TiO 2 (TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 ) was prepared via in situ fabrication and template method to extract uranium(VI) from solution. Compared with ZnFe 2 O 4 and TiO 2 /ZnFe 2 O 4 , TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 showed a high adsorption efficiency (98.3%) and adsorption capacity (716.2 mg g −1 ), which mainly related to the uniform porous structure of TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 . After five adsorption–desorption cycles, the removal efficiency of TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 remained above 90%, indicating that TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 had excellent reusability. Besides, TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 possessed excellent adsorption selectivity for uranium(VI) in the existence of competitive ions. The Langmuir adsorption model and pseudo-second order model fitted well the adsorption process, which demonstrated that the remove behavior of uranium(VI) on TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 was a monolayer chemisorption process. The extraction behavior of TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 for uranium(VI) was mainly attributed to electrostatic attraction, complexation reaction and oxygen vacancy filling. This study not only provides a high efficiency adsorbent (TiO 2 @ZnFe 2 O 4 ) for the extraction of uranium(VI) from solution but also offers a new effective way to enhance the performance of spinel composite.

Phosphate-modified baker's yeast (PMBY) was prepared, and used as a novel bio-sorbent for the adsorption of Pb2+ from aqueous solution. The influencing factors, absorption isotherms, kinetics, and mechanism were investigated. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) characterization and elemental analysis of PMBY showed that phosphate groups were successfully grafted onto the surface of yeast. The kinetic studies suggested that the adsorption process followed a pseudo-second-order chemisorption. The adsorption process of Pb2+ using PMBY was spontaneous and endothermic. Furthermore, the adsorption of Pb2+ on PMBY can rapidly achieve adsorption equilibrium (in just 3 min), and the maximum adsorption capacity of Pb2+ on PMBY was found to be 92 mg g−1 at 30 °C, which was about 3 times that of the pristine baker's yeast. The suggested mechanism for Pb2+ adsorption on PMBY was based upon ion-exchange, electrostatic interaction and chelation between the phosphate groups and Pb2+. However, compared with the pristine baker's yeast, the higher capacity and rapid adsorption of PMBY for Pb2+ was mainly due to the chelation and electrostatic interactions between the phosphate groups and Pb2+. In addition, the regeneration experiments indicated that the PMBY was easily recovered through desorption in 0.01 M HCl, and that PMBY still exhibited 90.77% of the original adsorption capacity for Pb2+ after five regeneration cycles. These results showed the excellent regeneration capability of PMBY for Pb2+ adsorption. PMBY has shown significant potential for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution due to its rapid adsorption, high-capacity and facile preparation.

Organic pollutants in aqueous solutions may potentially be adsorbed on biochar. In this study, biochar was derived from the pyrolysis of chitosan at 800°C. The removal rate of 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) exceeded 80%. Investigations by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Brunauer– Emmett–Teller indicated that the adsorption of organic pollutants on biochar tends to be a physical process. The optimized pH was 5. All three isotherm models involved (Freundlich, Koble–Corrigan, and Henry) could describe the adsorption process of 2,4-DCP well on chitosan-biochar, which was non-uniform surface adsorption in a diluted solution. The adsorption was an endothermic process. It took 40 min to reach the adsorption equilibrium, and kinetics of the Elovich equation and intraparticle diffusion (IPD) model indicated that the adsorption rate at the rapid adsorption stage was simultaneously controlled by surface diffusion and IPD and that at slow adsorption stage was controlled by surface diffusion. The ionic strengths suggested that electrostatic interaction was not the dominant mechanism during this process.

In this study, lanthanum hydroxide adsorbent was synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method and applied for removing phosphate from water. The optimal adsorbent was obtained at the La/OH molar ratio of 4:1. The adsorbent showed rapid adsorption of phosphate within the first 4 h in which approximately 84% of the equilibrium adsorption capacity can be achieved. The phosphate uptake was highly dependent on solution pH. The better fit of the Langmuir isotherm model to experimental data indicated that the monolayer adsorption occurred and the maximum adsorption capacity of 193.9 mg/g was accomplished at pH 7.0. The presence of fluoride could significantly retard the uptake of phosphate. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicated that hydroxyl groups on the adsorbent surface played the most key role in the adsorption. The phosphate ions were adsorbed on the adsorbent through the formation of inner-sphere complexes.

In this work, nanoscale hydroxyapatite (HAP)-modified ZIF-67 composite, HAP/ZIF-67, with abundant functional groups for uranium(VI) binding was synthesized via a facile ultrasound-assisted synthesis method. The prepared HAP/ZIF-67 was characterized by XRD , SEM, TEM , BET, FT-IR and XPS techniques, and was applied to eliminate uranium(VI) from aqueous solutions under various conditions, i.e., pH, coexisting ions, temperature and contact time. The results indicate that the abundant Co-OH, -C N- and -NH- binding groups originating from the ZIF-67 and the Ca-OH and PO 4 3- derived from loaded nanoscale HAP synergistically endowed HAP/ZIF-67 with the excellent U(VI) adsorption capacity of 453.1 mg/g, which is 2.55 and 1.78 times that of pristine HAP and ZIF-67. HAP/ZIF-67 showed high adsorption selectivity toward U(VI), and the U(VI) elimination efficiency for real wastewater by HAP/ZIF-67 reached 97.29%. The adsorption kinetics and isotherms were well simulated by the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm model, respectively, suggesting that U(VI) adsorption was an endothermic monolayer chemisorption process. The adsorption mechanism of U (VI) by HAP/ZIF-67 was dominated by surface complexation process. This work is expected to provide an effective strategy for developing HAP-modified MOFs absorbent to be used for the highly efficient elimination of radionuclides from wastewater.

The Cd(II) adsorption of kiwi biochar functionalized with Mg-Fe (3:1) layered double hydroxides (LDH) was studied. And the biochar was got via liquid-phase deposition, by incorporating Mg-Fe layered double hydroxide (Mg-Fe LDH) particles into kiwi biochar (KB/LDH). The batch of sorption experiments were studied, including adsorption kinetics and isotherm and the effects of pH, ion strength (IS) and co-existing ions. The KB/LDH composite showed a strong sorption ability to Cd(II) in aqueous solutions with the adsorption capacity of 25.6 mg g−1, compared with pristine biochar of 1.78 mg g−1. The adsorption of Cd(II) on KB/LDH composite increased with the decreasing of IS, decreased first and then grew larger with the increase of pH and was observed irrespective of the co-existence of K+, Cl− and NO3−. To sum up, the KB/LDH can be potentially used as an alternative adsorbent to amend the water and soil contaminated by Cd(II).

Nitrogenous disinfection by-products (N-DBPs) are more genotoxic and cytotoxic than the currently regulated carbonaceous DBPs (i.e., C-DBPs), and it has become a frontier issue of drinking water safety research. In this paper, the effect of granular activated carbon (GAC) on adsorption and its influencing factors was investigated for a typical N-DBP phenylacetonitrile, which is produced during chlorination of phenylalanine precursor during water treatment. The results showed that GAC had a high adsorption capacity (q max = 22.92 mg/g) for phenylacetonitrile, and the adsorption isotherm was fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model. Pseudo-second-order equation can well describe the behavior of phenylacetonitrile adsorption on activated carbon (R 2 > 0.990), and the adsorption rate constant k 2 = 0.7780–14.12 g/(mg h). Analysis of the influencing factors showed that higher phenylacetonitrile concentration improved the adsorption equilibrium capacity and the adsorption rate. Water temperature and pH had little effect on the capacity or rate of adsorption.

Many organisms rely on a dynamic attachment mechanism to climb surfaces. Inspired by these organisms, researchers have developed soft climbing robots. Despite their rapid development in recent times, such robots have restricted application in complex environments, such as the lack of remote wireless actuation and attachment ability for climbing tilted or slippery surfaces. To address these issues, we report a light-driven dynamic adsorption/desorption soft suction cup inspired by rock-climbing fish ( Beaufortia kweichowensis ). Our suction cups utilize the volumetric change caused by changes in the gas–liquid phase in the inner chamber to generate suction and thrust. The repetitive changes in the gas–liquid phase, controlled by photothermal conversion, help achieve adsorption and desorption. We demonstrated that the suction cups based on negative pressure adsorption can easily help miniaturize soft robotic devices and adapt to multiple types of substrates, making our approach applicable to tilted or slippery surfaces. By integrating the soft suction cups for surface attachment by dynamic control and a shape memory alloy as a deformable body, we developed a soft climbing robot that can perform precise, facile, and programmed controlled climbing under different conditions via remote light manipulation. Four continuous and directional climbing sequences on tilted and slippery surfaces were demonstrated. The results are expected to help advance the application of light-driven soft robots on tilted or slippery surfaces

A new pyrolytic process was successfully used to prepare hollow-like spherical sludge chars (HSC). In the process, pre-formed cotton spheres with a low density were firstly coated by a layer of sludge paste containing ZnCl2 to form cotton fiber@sludge spheres and then pyrolyzed at 500 °C for 2 h. The resulting HSC possessed a diameter of about 3 mm, a low density of 0.1008 g cm−3 and a high surface area of 1008 m2 g−1. The column adsorption behavior showed that the adsorption capacity and rate constant of HSC for methylene blue reached 186.4 mg g−1 and 0.232 mL min−1 mg−1. The adsorption capacity is about 8.4 and 12 fold of the adsorption capacities of GAC (22.28 mg g−1) and SC (15.26 mg g−1), respectively, and the adsorption rate constant is about 1.3 fold of that of GAC and SC. The great adsorption capacity and rate constant can be considerably dependent on the special hollow-like spherical structure of HSC.

Modified calcium saturated montmorillonite (Mt) was prepared at different 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) loadings through grafting. The as-products were characterized by XRD, FTIR and elemental analysis. Surface analysis such as acidity was examined at different H+ concentrations, showing that the release of OH− from the modified samples increased in the following order: APTES4.0CEC–Mt > APTES3.0CEC–Mt > APTES2.0CEC–Mt > APTES1.0CEC–Mt. Batch experiments were conducted and different conditions (pH, temperature and co-existing ions) were used to evaluate the adsorption capacity of the modified samples. The study developed a new way to confirm the mechanism, which indicated that ligand adsorption was the dominant sorption mechanism for Sr(II) uptake onto APTES–Mts. In general, APTES grafted montmorillonite possessed a higher efficiency of Sr(II) uptake and showed great potential for Sr(II)-rich wastewater treatment.

In order to improve the efficiency of the removal of methylene blue from wastewater, we synthesized activated carbon by thermally activating phosphoric acid-treated mangosteen peels. This activated carbon possessed a great specific surface area (1832 m 2 /g) and exhibited excellent adsorption capacity (871.49 mg/g) for methylene blue. In this study, we varied the impregnation ratios, activation temperatures, and activation time to determine the best conditions for preparing the mangosteen peel activated carbon (MPAC). The optimal conditions included a 1:3 impregnation ratio with activation for 60 min at 450 °C. We characterized the MPAC using a scanning electron microscope, powder X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis , differential scanning calorimetry , and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy together with the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller approach. The adsorption experiment results conformed to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model. This proved that physical adsorption dominates in this adsorption process . The synthesized MPAC-5 showed great adsorption performance for a variety of dye wastewater. After three times of recycling, the removal rate of methylene blue is still above 40%. Compared with other biowastes, mangosteen peel has the potential to be synthesized into activated carbon with a high adsorption capacity for dyes.
