Abstract: Microorganisms compete with other species by secreting antimicrobial compounds. The compact structure of aerobic granules was generally assumed to provide spatial isolation, resulting in the co-occurrence of diverse strains that have similar or dissimilar functions. No studies have investigated whether stable, mature aerobic granules can be formed with two mutually inhibitory strains. The strain Acinetobacter sp. 18 competes with Bacillus sphaericus 15 in a well-mixed environment, but can form stable and mature granules at 400 mg L-1 phenol by repeatedly replenishing fresh medium in a sequencing batch reactor. The supernatants collected from the 18 medium in its exponential-growth phase or from the 15+18 medium cultivated for 12 or 24 h significantly inhibited 15 growth. Addition of tightly bound extracellular polymeric substances (TBEPS) or loosely bound extracellular polymeric substances (LBEPS) extracted from 15+18 granules effectively suppressed the inhibitory effects of 18 on 15. The TBEPS or LBEPS physically separate strain 15 from 18 in the granule, and effectively adsorb the inhibitory substance(s) in the suspension. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: Activated carbons have been prepared from jute sticks by chemical activation using ZnCl2 and physical activation using steam for the removal of Brilliant Green dye from aqueous solution. The activated carbons and charcoal prepared from jute sticks were characterized by evaluating the surface chemistry, structural features and surface morphology. The maximum BET surface area was obtained to be 2304 m(2)/g for chemical activated carbon (ACC) while it is 730 and 80 m(2)/g for steam activated carbon (ACS) and charcoal, respectively. The FT-IR spectra exhibited that the pyrolysis and steam activation of jute sticks resulted in the release of aliphatic and O-containing functional groups by thermal effect. However, the release of functional groups is the effect of chemical reaction in the ZnCl2 activation process. A honeycomb-type carbon structure in ACC was formed as observed on SEM images. Although charcoal and ACC were prepared at 500 degrees C the ACC exhibited much lower Raman sensitivity due to the formation of condensed aromatic ring systems. Due to high surface area and high porous structure with abundance of functional groups, the ACC adsorbed dye molecules with much higher efficiency than those of ACS and charcoal.

Abstract: Chromium-soil adsorption system exhibited both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models fit to the sorption data in the studied range of concentration. However the model fit was much better for Freundlich isotherm, this was primarily due to low adsorptive capacity of the soil, 1 In is equal to about 1.08 which is quite close to 1.0, indicating low adsorptive capacity of the soil for chromium(VI) system and the Q(max) was observed very low in range of 0.196-0.220 mg Cr(VI)/g of soil. The initial concentration of Cr(VI) in the solution remarkably influenced the equilibrium Cr(VI) uptake on soil sorption process. The model simulated results for the natural redemption of the soil show the periodic movement of the chromium concentration front ultimately reaching quite low concentration at the end of the cycles. In the case of inorganic chemicals, the absence of chemical decay makes the adsorption phenomena as the major contaminant removal mechanism where as for biodegradation the chemical depletion becomes a major factor in the transport of pollutant. Consequently, the concentration of contaminants reaching the ground water table becomes quite low. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: in this paper we compare linear regression with tree regression for analysis of the influence of soil properties on the sorption and retention of added Cd, Cu and Pb by 20 soil horizons typical of cropped soils in Galicia (N.W. Spain); our measure of sorption/retention capacity was K-r, a recently introduced adimensional parameter. Sorption and retention of Cd was depressed by the presence of Cu and Pb. The soil parameters that were most associated, overall, with differences in Cd, Cu and Pb sorption and retention were cation exchange capacity (CEC), pH and Mn oxides’ content. Tree regression, which can take into account variation on both global and local scales. afforded better-fitting models than linear regression, which only reflects global tendencies; but for coherent interpretability of tree regression results it is just as important to avoid overfitting as in the case of linear regression.

Abstract: In this study, a new chelating resin of dithiooxamide (rubeanic acid)-formaldehyde (DTOF) has been synthesized by the reaction of dithiooxamide and formaldehyde. Also a well-known chelating resin of thiourea (thiooxamide)-formaldehyde(TUF) has been prepared by the reaction of thiourea and formaldehyde. DTOF and TUF chelating resins were used in the adsorption, separation and concentration of silver ions by batch and column techniques. These resins were characterized using FTIR and elemental analysis. It was found that DTOF resin has silver adsorption capacity of 3333.3 mg g(-1) or 30.86 mmolg g(-1) and TUF resin has the capacity of 1428.6 mg g(-1) or 13.22 mmol g(-1). DTOF resin showed more affinity to silver ions according to Cu(II), Zn(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) base metal ions than TUF resin. It was also demonstrated that DTOF resin can be used in the separation and concentration of silver ions. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Full Text: 2010\J Haz Mat174, 567.pdf

Abstract: Iron oxide-coated sand (IOCS) was modified with hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium (HDTMA) and tested as an adsorbent for the removal of natural organic matter (NOM) from water. The modification did not change the physical properties of the IOCS but coated HDTMA onto its surface. The HDTMA-modified IOCS displayed a faster initial NOM adsorption and substantially higher capacity than the unmodified IOCS over a wide pH range in both batch and column adsorption. The enhancement was more pronounced at higher pH. Compared to unmodified IOCS, the HDTMA-modified IOCS removed more hydrophobic and larger NOM molecules and its NOM adsorption was less sensitive to the changes in ionic strength. The adsorption capacity of the modified IOCS was regenerated in-situ with NaOH solution and ex-situ with HDTMA solution. HDTMA-modified IOCS adsorption may be a promising alternative technology for NOM removal. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: Two beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD)-based polymers were synthesized using 4,4’-methylene-bis-phenyldiisocyanate (MDI) or hexamethylenediisocyanate (HMDI) as a cross linking agent in dimethylformamide and used as sorbents for the removal of azo dyes (Evans Blue and Chicago Sky Blue), as well as aromatic amines (benzidine. p-chloroaniline and alpha-naphthalamine) from aqueous solutions. The sorption experiments were carried out by using batch-wise procedure involving the determination of pH effect, sorbate concentration and contact time. Moreover, from the equation isotherms such as Langmuir and Freundlich were successfully applied to model the experimental data. From the results polymer 2 was found to be a better sorbent for both azo dyes and the aromatic amines as compared to polymer I as proved by Langmuir isotherm model. The proposed sorption mechanism involved several kinds of interactions: physical adsorption, hydrogen bonding and formation of an inclusion complex due to the beta-CD molecules through host-guest interactions.

Abstract: The purposes of this research were to study the effects of two modified photocatalysts, Nafion-coated TiO2 and fluorinated TiO2, and photocatalytic degradation of Victoria Blue R in aqueous solution. Photocatalytic degradation of Victoria Blue R was accelerated by the modified photocatalysts. Bulk and surface characterizations of the resulting powders were carried out. Attachment of the anions to the TiO2 surface using the Nafion-coated-TiO2 possibly results in increased adsorption of the cationic dye, and the degradation rate is larger for the cationic dye. It was found that Victoria Blue R on the two illuminated TiO2 surfaces underwent very different changes. To obtain a better understanding on the mechanistic details of this modified-TiO2-assisted photodegradation of the Victoria Blue R dye with UV irradiation, a large number of intermediates of the process were separated, identified, and characterized by a high-performance liquid chtomatography-mass spectrometry technique. Several probable photodegradation pathways were proposed and discussed. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: The aim of this work is to study the performances of removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution by three different oxy-hydroxides: hematite, goethite and alpha-alumina. Batch experiments were conducted to measure the effects on adsorption of Cr(VI) of different parameters such as pH of the medium, ionic strength, and initial concentration. Results showed that the adsorption of Cr(VI) depends strongly on the pH, but is independent of ionic strength for hematite and goethite. For a-alumina, adsorption is strongly dependent on pH values and ionic strength. Equilibrium studies showed that Cr(VI) had a high affinity in an acidic medium, but decreased as solution pH increased. Equilibrium isotherms were measured experimentally. Results were analyzed by the Langmuir and Freundlich equations using linearized correlation coefficient at room temperature. The characteristic parameters for each isotherm have been determined. Langmuir equation was found to fit the equilibrium data for Cr(VI) adsorption. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: The present study was carried out to optimize the various environmental conditions for biosorption of Pb(II), Cd(II) and Cu(II) by investigating as a function of the initial metal ion concentration, temperature, biosorbent loading and pH using Trichoderma viride as adsorbent. Biosorption of ions from aqueous solution was optimized in a batch system using response surface methodology. The values of R-2 0.9716, 0.9699 and 0.9982 for Pb(II), Cd(II) and Cu(II) ions, respectively, indicated the validity of the model. The thermodynamic properties Delta G degrees, Delta H degrees, Delta E degrees and Delta S degrees by the metal ions for biosorption were analyzed using the equilibrium constant value obtained from experimental data at different temperatures. The results showed that biosorption of Pb(II) ions by T viride adsorbent is more endothermic and spontaneous. The study was attempted to offer a better understating of representative biosorption isotherms and thermodynamics with special focuses on binding mechanism for biosorption using the FTIR spectroscopy.

Abstract: A new synthetic methodology route consisted in reacting the natural babassu coconut mesocarp (BCM) and babassu coconut epicarp (BCE) with ethylenesufide, for adding basic sulfur centers in pendant chains that possess high potential activity for coordinating divalent cations from aqueous solution. All biomaterials were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared (IR). C-13 NMR and thermogravimetry. The sulfur elemental analysis gave 2.00±0.05 and 8.67±0.01% for BCES and BCMS, which correspond to 0.60±0.01 and 2.71±0.01 mmol of this element per each gram of BCE and BCM, to confer a degree of functionalization of 20.2±0.07 and 86.7±0.01 mg g(-1). This synthesis enabled from IR weak SH band at 2544 cm-1 due to the incorporation of the reagent into the structure. The basic centers favor copper sorption with increasing pH from 2 to 6 observed by a batchwise methodology and the data obtained from the chosen pH 6 were adjusted to Freundlich and Langmuir models, favoring fit for the latter equation. The kinetics of sorption was established at 30 min for both biopolymers with a pseudo-second-order model. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: In this study, corncobs biomass was utilized as an adsorbent to remove Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The adsorption behavior of Pb(II) was studied under different conditions, including solution pH, contact time and metal concentration. Ground corncobs were modified with CH3OH and NaOH to investigate the effect of chemical modification on Pb(II) binding capacity. Results showed that Pb(II) binding on the biomass is pH-dependent and the kinetics can be well described by the Lagergren-second-order model. The maximum Pb(II) binding capacity qmax calculated from Langmuir isotherm was 0.0783 mmol/g. After base hydrolysis of the biomass. Pb(II) binding capacity increased from 0.0783 to 0.2095 mmol/g (about 43.4 mg Pb/g). However, Pb(II) binding capacity on the esterified corncobs decreased greatly from 0.0783 to 0.0381 mmol/g. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis showed that hydroxyl and carboxylic (COO-) groups on the biomass play an important role in Pb(II) binding process. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) data further indicated that lead is adsorbed as Pb2+ and is attached to oxide groups on the biomass. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: The efficacy of un-calcined sodium exchanged (Na-MMT) and acid modified montmorillonite (A-MMT) has been investigated for adsorptive removal of Ni2+ from aqueous solution. Physico-chemical parameters such as pH, initial Ni2+ concentration, and equilibrium contact time were studied in a series of batch adsorption experiments. The equilibrium time of contact for both adsorbents was about 230 min. The Redlich-Peterson model best described the equilibrium sorption of Ni2+ onto Na-MMT and the Dubinin-Radushkevich model was the best model in predicting the equilibrium sorption of Ni2+ onto A-MMT. The kinetics of Ni2+ uptake by Na-MMT and A-MMT followed the pseudo second-order chemisorption mechanism. Sorptions of Ni2+ onto Na-MMT and A-MMT were spontaneous and endothermic. Regeneration was tried for several cycles with a view to recover the adsorbed Ni2+ and also to restore Na-MMT and A-MMT to their original states. The un-calcined Na-MMT and A-MMT have adsorptive potentials for removal of Ni2+ from aqueous bodies. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract: Orange peel (OP) was used as raw material to prepare two novel adsorbents: MgOP (Mg2+ type orange peel adsorbent) and KOP (K+ type orange peel adsorbent). FTIR and SEM were used to characterize the adsorbents. Effects of pH, solid/liquid ratio, time and metal ion concentration on the Cu2+ adsorption by these two adsorbents were investigated. The isotherms data were analyzed using the Langrnuir, Freudlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich models. Langmuir model provides the best correlation for the adsorption of Cu2+ by both MgOP and KOP. and the mono-layer adsorption capacity for Cu2+ removal by MgOP and KOP are 40.37 and 59.77 mg/g, respectively. The adsorbed amounts of Cu2+ increased with the increase in contact time and reached equilibrium within 20 min. The kinetics data were analyzed using four adsorption kinetic models: the pseudo-first and second-order equations, the Elovich equation and intraparticle diffusion equation. Results show that the pseudo-second-order equation fits the experimental data very well. Thermodynamic studies showed the spontaneous and exothermic nature of the adsorption of Cu2+ by MgOP and KOP.
