MgAl-Layered Double Hydroxide-Coated Bio-Silica as an Adsorbent for Anionic Pollutants Removal: A Case Study of the Implementation of Sustainable Technologies

The adsorption efficiency of Cr(VI) and anionic textile dyes onto MgAl-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and MgAl-LDH coated on bio-silica (b-SiO2) nanoparticles (MgAl-LDH@SiO2) derived from waste rice husks was studied in this work. The material was characterized using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM/EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) techniques. The adsorption capacities of MgAl-LDH@SiO2 were increased by 12.2%, 11.7%, 10.6%, and 10.0% in the processes of Cr(VI), Acid Blue 225 (AB-225), Acid Violet 109 (AV-109), and Acid Green 40 (AG-40) dye removal versus MgAl-LDH. The obtained results indicated the contribution of b-SiO2 to the development of active surface functionalities of MgAl-LDH. A kinetic study indicated lower intraparticle diffusional transport resistance. Physisorption is the dominant mechanism for dye removal, while surface complexation dominates in the processes of Cr(VI) removal. The disposal of effluent water after five adsorption/desorption cycles was attained using enzymatic decolorization, photocatalytic degradation of the dyes, and chromate reduction, satisfying the prescribed national legislation. Under optimal conditions and using immobilized horseradish peroxidase (HRP), efficient decolorization of effluent solutions containing AB-225 and AV-109 dyes was achieved. Exhausted MgAl-LDH@SiO2 was processed by dissolution/precipitation of Mg and Al hydroxides, while residual silica was used as a reinforcing filler in polyester composites. The fire-proofing properties of composites with Mg and Al hydroxides were also improved, which provides a closed loop with zero waste generation. The development of wastewater treatment technologies and the production of potentially marketable composites led to the successful achievement of both low environmental impacts and circular economy implementation.

Comparative Study on Removal of Acid Violet 90 dye by using Catalytic Ozonation Processes with n.CeO2, n.ZnO and n.CeO2/n.ZnO Nanocatalysts and Kinetic Examination

The textile industry uses high amounts of water and dyestuffs, and accordingly, wastewater containing significant amounts of dyestuffs is produced, which have to be treated before being discharged to the environment. The aim of this study is the treatment of synthetic wastewater containing 50 mg/L Acid Violet 90 dyestuff with catalytic ozonation process have been investigated by using n.CeO2, n.ZnO and n.CeO2/n.ZnO (1:1, m:m) nanocatalysts. The process optimization has been performed with the pH, ozone dose, catalyst dose and reaction time parameters. While the optimum conditions have been determined as pH 3, 600 mg/L ozone dose, 10 min reaction time, for all three catalysts, catalyst doses have differed as 50 mg/L for n. CeO2, 30 mg/L for n.ZnO and n.CeO2/n.ZnO. The removal efficiencies of AV 90 have been achieved as 97.04, 96.2 and 95.7% for n.CeO2, n.ZnO and n.CeO2/n.ZnO catalysts, respectively. Kinetic analyses showed that color removal of AV 90 dyestuff followed First order kinetics with R2 values of 0.9987 (n.CeO2), 0.9912 (n.ZnO) and 0.9923 (n.CeO2/n.ZnO) and reaction rate constant values have been calculated as 0,3435 (n.CeO2), 0,3551(n.ZnO) and 0,3226 (n.CeO2/n.ZnO) min−1.

Peach seed shell and Aspergillus oryzae as adsorbents for the uptake of acid violet 90 dye from wastewater

In this study, Aspergillus oryzae (A. Oryzae) biomass and waste peach seed shells (PPSS) were used to create alternative and effective adsorbents. Acid Violet 90 (AVD) dye was removed from wastewater using the as-prepared adsorbents. Different process variables like pH (2–11), contact period (0–180 min), and adsorbent mass (0.2–2.0 g/L) were examined. The solution pH had a synergistic effect on the improved removal of AVD and the optimal adsorption removal for the PPSS and the A. Oryzae adsorbent occurred at pH 2.0 and pH 5.0, respectively. The findings demonstrated that, in comparison to A. Oryzae, PPSS reported a greater AVD adsorption (mg/g). The equilibrium time for the adsorption process was attained within 180 min for both adsorbents. The adsorption kinetics modelling results showed a good fit with pseudo-second-order kinetics, for both adsorbents, with average R2 values of 0.999 (for PPSS) and 0.997 (for A. Oryzae). Similarly, the isotherm modelling results confirmed the good fitting of the Langmuir isotherm model for A. Oryzae (R2 = 0.999) and the Freundlich model for PPSS (R2 = 0.997). The maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of 55.0 and 94.92 mg/g was recorded for A. Oryzae and PPSS, respectively. Mechanistic investigation of the present system suggests that both intraparticle diffusion and surface sorption mechanisms control the adsorption rate. As agro materials, both adsorbents are composed of mostly oxygen-based surface functional groups like the –OH, –C = O, -C-O-C, and multiple carbon-carbon bonds, all contributed to the synergistic mechanism interaction between the adsorbent and AVD dye in this study. This study, therefore, revealed that the PPSS and A. Oryzae may be very helpful for removing anionic dye from contaminated wastewater, indicating its potential for useful application in the removal of other major pollutants.

Photocatalytic degradation of acid violet dye by sunlight exposure using green synthesized magnesium oxide nanoparticles

An aqueous extract of Phyllanthus Emblica fruit extract was used as a precursor in the effective synthesis of Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles (MgONP) and the same was calcined at different temperatures. The thermal study demonstrated that MgO nanoparticles evolved from Mg(OH)2 by the identification of characteristic weight loss curves and endothermic peaks in TGA and DTA, respectively. UV-visible analysis showed that the peak shifts to a longer wavelength at 350 nm when the calcination temperature rises from 200 to 600 °C, indicating a decrease in the size of MgONP particles. On the other hand, Tauc plot analysis showed that the band gaps between the precursor and calcined MgO samples varied from 5.84 to 3.70 eV. FTIR and XRD analysis confirmed the synthesis of MgONPs from Mg(OH)2 exhibiting spherical shapes of around 20 nm in size.Twenty minutes of exposure to sunshine caused the dye's colour to entirely vanish, demonstrating the remarkable photocatalytic effectiveness of MgONP calcined at 600 °C. The effective breakdown of Acid Violet was confirmed by the rate constant of the photocatalytic behaviour increasing proportionately with the catalyst dose. Furthermore, it was suggested by the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models that Acid Violet efficiently adheres to the photocatalyst surface when R2 values are nearer to 1. There are several potential applications for MgO nano adsorbents in dye removal processes, as evidenced by desorption studies that showed their reusability.

Hierarchically, Low Band Gap Nanohybrid InVO4-CdS Heterojunction for Visible Light-Driven Toxic Organic Dye Degradations.

The synthesis of InVO4-CdS heterojunction photocatalysts has been achieved by a novel two-step approach, including a microwave-assisted technique, followed by a moderate hydrothermal method, marking the first successful instance of such a synthesis. X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, elemental color mapping, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, Raman analysis, photoluminescence, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller were employed to investigate the crystal structures, surface morphologies and particle sizes, chemical compositions, and optical characteristics of the as-synthesized materials. The research results indicated that the heterojunction InVO4-CdS, as synthesized, consisted of InVO4 microrods with an average size of around 15 nm and cadmium sulfide (CdS) microflowers with a diameter of 1.5 μm. Furthermore, all of the heterojunctions had favorable photoabsorption properties throughout the visible-light spectrum. The photocatalytic efficiency of the samples obtained was thoroughly assessed by the degradation of acid violet 7 (AV 7) under visible light irradiation with a wavelength greater than 420 nm. The photocatalytic efficiency for the decomposition of AV 7 was greatly enhanced in the InVO4-CdS (IVCS) heterojunctions when compared to prepared bare InVO4 and CdS. Additionally, it was observed that the composite material consisting of IVCS 3 wt % InVO4 combined with CdS exhibited the most significant enhancement in catalytic effectiveness for the photodegradation of AV 7 dye. Specifically, the catalytic performance of this composite material was found to be around 69.4 and 76.2 times greater than that of pure InVO4 and CdS, respectively. Furthermore, the experimental procedure including active species trapping provided evidence that h+ and •O2- radicals were the primary active species involved in the photocatalytic reaction process. Additionally, a potential explanation for the improved photocatalytic activity of the InVO4-CdS heterojunction was presented, taking into account the determination of band positions.

Performance evaluation of facile synthesized CA-PVA-GO composite for the mitigation of Cr(Ⅲ) and C.I. acid violet 54 dye from tannery wastewater

Untreated tannery wastewater contains a large amount of toxic metals, dyes, and other pollutants, which pose adverse effects on the ecosystem and public health. In this work, a calcium alginate-poly vinyl alcohol-graphene oxide (CA-PVA-GO) composite was prepared to remove metals and dyes, particularly Cr(Ⅲ) and CI acid violet 54 (AV54) dye, from tannery wastewater. FESEM, FTIR, and XRD analyses were applied to characterize the GO and CA-PVA-GO. Different operational variables, viz. pH (3.0–5.5 for Cr(III) and 2–7 for dye), dosage (0.164–2.46 g/L), contact time (10–60 min), initial concentration (39, 65, 98, and 201 ppm for Cr(III) and 21.5, 38.5, 54.5, and 61.75 ppm for dye), and temperature (298, 308, 318, and 328 K) were studied to evaluate the efficiency of the CA-PVA-GO composite. The optimum conditions for Cr(Ⅲ) and AV54 dye adsorption were found to be pH (5.0 and 3.0), dosage (0.82 g/L for both), and time (45 and 60 min), respectively, with 35.35 ± 1.43% and 84.63 ± 2.54% removal efficiency. The experimental data was analyzed through the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The maximum adsorption capacity (qm) was observed at 173.01 and 74.68 mg/g for Cr(Ⅲ) and AV54 dye, respectively. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model was fitted better (R2 = 0.981, 0.995, 0.92, and 0.995) than first-order for AV54 dye adsorption. Thermodynamic analyses revealed that the Cr(Ⅲ) and AV54 dye adsorption processes were spontaneous and exothermic. The value of Gibbs free energy (ΔG) for Cr(III) adsorption was obtained at −7.433, −4.508, −2.626, and −1.311 kJ/mol, whereas it was −5.178, −4.867, −4.628, and −4.555 kJ/mol for dye. The values of ΔH and ΔS were −67.257 and −0.198 kJ/mol for Cr(III) and −10.852 and −0.019 kJ/mol for the dye removal. The regenerated CA-PVA-GO composite was reused successfully. Different physicochemical parameters, viz., concentration, pH, TDS, EC, BOD5, and COD of chrome tanning and dyeing effluents, were analyzed before and after the adsorption. The results of chromium and dye removal from tannery wastewater were 53.18% and 93.91%, revealing that the developed eco-friendly CA-PVA-GO composite could be an operative adsorbent for tannery wastewater treatment and possibly scaled up to an industrial level.

Simultaneous biosorption of acid violet and reactive yellow dyes by Cladosporium cladosporioides

The synthetic dye mixture of Acid Violet 90 and Reactive Yellow 145 was treated with dead Cladosporium cladosporioides biomass. The individual concentrations were calculated with the first-order derivative spectrophotometric method. The calibration curves were plotted at wavelengths of 578.4 nm and 318.2 nm in the derivative spectrum for Acid Violet 90 and Reactive Yellow 145, respectively. The calculated limit of quantitation value is ~ 2.5 mg/L for Acid Violet 90 and ~ 1.5 mg/L for Reactive Yellow 145. The achieved mean recovery percentage values are around 100%. The highest removal efficiency (100%) was obtained for both dyes at pH 4 using 0.25 g biomass and 50 mg/L of each dye in 60 min reaction time with 150 rpm shaking speed. The hydrochloric acid solution was used for biomass regeneration, and the removal efficiencies remained at 99% and 89% for Acid Violet 90 and Reactive Yellow 145 in the third cycle.Graphical abstractBiosorption process

Elucidating the mechanisms of AV17 and BB41 dye degradation through combined computational and applied analyses

This study delved into the degradation efficiencies of Basic Blue 41 (BB41) and Acid Violet 17 (AV17) azo dyes employing various Fenton reactions, including Fenton (FP), photo-Fenton (P-FP), sono-Fenton (S-FP), and sono-photo-Fenton (S-P-FP) processes. The primary goal was to pinpoint the optimal degradation conditions by meticulously examining variables such as H2O2 and Fe2+ concentrations, reaction time, pH, and dye concentration. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations revealed the interaction between Fenton reagents and dye molecules, and crucial quantum chemical parameters reflecting the dye's reactivity were computed. The degradation efficiencies for AV17 in FP, P-FP, S-FP, and S-P-FP processes stood at 85 %, 92.6 %, 93.8 %, and 86.9 %, respectively. Meanwhile, for BB41, the corresponding efficiencies were 97.2 %, 98.1 %, 97.8 %, and 97.5 %. Notably, DFT-calculated data corroborated experimental observations, shedding light on the degradation mechanism. This study significantly advances existing research by demonstrating the efficacy and reliability of Fenton-like processes in degrading AV17 and BB41 dyes. The findings underscore the potential of these processes in addressing environmental concerns associated with azo dyes.

Gamma radiation-induced degradation of Acid Violet 49 in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in an aqueous medium

Abstract The present study is about the effect of gamma radiations on the degradation of Acid Violet 49 (AV49) in the presence of H2O2 (γ/H2O2). The Cs-137 radiation source was calibrated to irradiate the aqueous solution of AV49 within the 1 kGy, 5 kGy & 10 kGy dose range. The results showed that 50–150 mg/L of AV49 was effectively degraded by γ radiation (85 %), however, the concentration of H2O2 in the range of 0.2–0.6 mL promoted degradation to 90 % and 98 %, respectively. It was observed that all absorption bands declined with rising irradiation dose and disappeared completely after 10 kGy applied dose. pH conditions (3, 5,7, and 9) were used in the radio-lytic degradation of AV49, the results showed that the best degradation efficiency has been found for pH 9. The optimum degradation rate is higher (98 %) with a 50 mg/L concentration of AV49, 0.6 mL H2O2, and pH 9 at a 10 kGy absorbed dose. In addition, the influence of various parameters on the rate of degradation such as the effect of irradiation dose, pH, H2O2, and dye (AV49) concentration was also studied. Furthermore, the removal of total organic carbon TOC was not as effective as that of the AV 49. Total nitrogen TN was not completely removed even at high dosage. Radio-lytic degradation of AV49 was analyzed by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) as an analytical technique. Results revealed that the proposed methodology for degradation of dyes is effective and probably could be applied for the removal of other toxic pollutants.

Visible light assisted photocatalytic performance of Europium doped ZnS-Nb2O5 heterostructure for mineralization of Acid violet 7 dye

The present study focuses on the visible light assisted photocatalytic performance of Europium doped ZnS-Nb2O5 heterostructure catalysts for the mineralization of organic pollutants such as Acid violet 7 (AV7) dye. Structural and morphological investigations reveal the presence of wurtzite ZnS and Nb2O5 components in the prepared heterostructure in separate phases. The prepared Europium doped ZnS-Nb2O5 (3Eu50ZN) heterostructures shows enhanced visible light absorption with prominent redshift. Photoluminescence study suggests the presence of surface states/defect energy levels in Europium doped ZnS-Nb2O5 heterostructure catalysts. In comparison to doped and undoped components, the fluorescence lifetime analysis demonstrates enhanced charge separation in 3Eu50ZN heterostructure catalysts. Photo/electrochemical studies reveal superior capacitance behavior, enhanced charge carrier separation, and improved stability in the aqueous phase for 3Eu50ZN heterostructure in comparison to ZnS and Nb2O5 catalysts. The superior visible light assisted photocatalytic performance with 3Eu50ZN heterostructure catalysts was achieved for the mineralization of AV7 dye (20 mg L−1). Active species determination suggests photogenerated holes (h+) to be the major active species responsible for the degradation reaction and a plausible reaction pathway was proposed. The 3Eu50ZN heterostructure catalysts exhibit a recycling nature and demonstrate improved stability.

Feroxyhyte - from synthesis and characterization to application.

Feroxyhyte (δ-FeOOH) was synthesized and characterized using X-ray diffractometry (XRD), simultaneous thermal analysis (STA), scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and low-temperature nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements. Its potential application as adsorbent of an anionic and cationic dyes such as C.I. Acid Violet 1 (AV1) and C.I. Basic Blue 3 (BB3) was investigated by determining the adsorption capacities based on the Langmuir (36.6 mg/g for AV1 and 187 mg/g for BB3), Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models. Adsorption of AV1 and BB3 by δ-FeOOH drops with the presence of additives such as cationic and anionic surfactants (CTAB, SDS) and ionic polymers (PAA, PEI). The surface and electrokinetic properties of examined suspensions were also described. They include determination of the solid surface charge density and the zeta potential, as well as values of point of zero charge and isoelectric point of feroxyhyte particles without and with adsorbed layers of organic substances. Their analysis made possible to propose the most probable structure of electrical double layer formed at the iron mineral/aqueous solution interface.

Acid Violet 3: A Base-Activated Water-Soluble Photoswitch.

Acidic azo dyes are widely used for their vibrant colors. However, if their photophysics were better understood and controllable, they could be integrated into many more applications such as photosensing, photomedicine, and nonlinear optics. Here, the proton-controlled photophysics of a widely used acid, hydrazo dye, acid violet 3 (AV3) is explored. Density functional theory is used to predict the ground- and excited-state potential energy surfaces, and the proposed photoisomerization mechanism is confirmed with spectroscopic experiments. The ground-state and first two excited-state surfaces of the three readily accessible protonation states, AV3-H, AV3, and AV3+H, are investigated along both the dihedral rotation and inversion coordinates. The deprotonated AV3-H undergoes photoisomerization with blue light (λex = 453 nm) through a dihedral rotation mechanism. Upon the formation of the cis-isomer, the reversion of AV3-H is predicted to occur through a mixed rotational and inversion mechanism. In contrast, AV3 and its protonated form, AV3+H, do not undergo photoisomerization because there is no driving force for either the rotation or inversion of the azo bond in the excited state. In addition, when the azo bond is acidic, the ground-state dihedral rotation reversion mechanism barrier is lower. The mechanistic insights gained here through the combination of theory and experiment provide a roadmap to control the reactivity of AV3 across 11 orders of magnitude of proton concentration, making them interesting candidates for a range of pharmaceuticals.

Removal of acid violet 7 from aqueous solution with polymer matrix composite particles by adsorption and photocatalytic decolorization methods: isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamic studies

ABSTRACT A stable and efficient [m-poly(EGDMA-2-VP)]-TiO2 photocatalyst with magnetically separable UV light activated is synthesised and evaluated for the photodegradation and adsorption of Acid Violet 7 (AV7) dye. The polymer particles synthesised were analysed via Scanning electron microscopy ;(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer – Emmett – Teller (BET) and Electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques. The pH (3, 5, 7 and 9), polymer amount (0.01–0.09 g), initial dyestuff concentration (30, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 mg/L), and temperature (277, 293, 318 and 338 K) parameters affecting the adsorption were investigated. The residual dye concentration was read at 517 nm by using a UV-vis spectrophotometer. The best adsorption efficiency (97%) was achieved with 30 mg/L dyestuff solution and 0.01 gram of the polymer at pH 3 at 65°C. The Langmuir isotherm model and the second-order kinetic model were found to agree very well with the experimental data. According to thermodynamic parameters, the adsorption is endothermic and spontaneous. The photocatalytic decolorization was carried out under 395 nm UV light to increase the remaining dyestuffs in the solution. As a result, 99% efficiency was obtained from the removal of dyestuffs from the aqueous solution. The decolorization mechanism is described by The Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) model. The degradation of AV7 has also been confirmed by COD measurements. A slight, gradual decrease (from 93.03% to 75.93%) in the photocatalytic activity is observed during repeated cycles of degradation experiment. Thus, the [m-poly(EGDMA-2-VP)]-TiO2 polymer particles possesses efficient adsorptivity and photocatalytic property for AV7 degradation. The magnetic properties of the polymer particles eliminate the risk of secondary pollution and easy recovery of the catalyst.

Unraveling the potential of sonochemically achieved DyMnO3/Dy2O3 nanocomposites as highly efficient visible-light-driven photocatalysts in decolorization of organic contamination

In the present day, the widespread presence of lingering contaminants in ecosystems has prompted scientists to develop novel semiconductor nanoarchitectures that assist in photocatalytic reactions mediated by visible light. As a result, we propose to prepare a series of Dy-Mn-O based nano-catalysts using a sonochemical approach utilizing various ionic phases of surfactants as structure-directing agents. In this study, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Rietveld refinement techniques were used to explore the fundamental effects of surfactants on the compositional-structural features of the materials. In terms of morphological profiles, DyMnO3/Dy2O3 (DM) nanostructures fabricated with Triton X-80 as a structure-directing agent showed the best uniformity with an acceptable size range between 14.14 and 52.35 nm. In the visible-light-driven photocatalytic domain, these nanocomposites provide high responsiveness based on their optical band gap value of 2.0 eV. According to our findings, two individual factors affect dye activity, namely dye type and concentration, which is why a high decomposition efficiency of 78.8% was obtained for 10 ppm Acid violet (AV) using DyMnO3/Dy2O3 nanocomposites after 120 min of exposure to visible light. Furthermore, radical quenching test confirmation confirmed the mechanistic behind the degradation process. This indicates that active species of O2•− and •OH may play a significant role in photocatalysis. As a result of repeated processes over three consecutive cycles, binary DyMnO3/Dy2O3 nanocomposites had an efficiency of 64.4% in removing dyes from the environment, indicating their high stability.
