Abstract
Aquaculture wastewater is contaminated with antibiotics such as oxytetracycline (OTC), which presents a serious threat to the environment and public health. In this study, FeCo MOF@MIP combining 2D bimetallic metal organic framework (MOF) with molecular imprinting technique was prepared for removing typical antibiotic-OTC from mariculture wastewater. Batch experiments indicated that the maximal capacity of adsorption of FeCo MOF@MIP to OTC was 36.9836 mg/g at 303 K, higher than that of FeCo MOF@NIP. The large number of spatial recognition sites in the blotting layer provides specific selectivity, and adsorption mechanism might be associated with the electrostatic adsorption process, hydrogen bonding and complexation among OTC and FeCo MOF@MIP. The adsorption process fits a quasi-secondary kinetic model with R2 = 0.9966, suggesting that the rate of adsorption is dominated by a physical adsorption mechanism involving the sharing of electrons among the FeCo MOF@MIP and OTC. In the presence of interference, the blotting factor of FeCo MOF@MIP was 11.77, which demonstrated that the as-synthesized materials possess the excellent selectivity. Moreover, the synthesized nanosheets exhibited excellent reusability, with 16.61 mg/g OTC removal achieved using the FeCo MOF@MIP after reuse on three occasions. These findings highlighted here is the promising role of CuCo MOF nanosheets in wastewater treatment, particularly for the selective removal of antibiotics.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Water Process Engineering aims to publish refereed, high-quality research papers with significant novelty and impact in all areas of the engineering of water and wastewater processing . Papers on advanced and novel treatment processes and technologies are particularly welcome. The Journal considers papers in areas such as nanotechnology and biotechnology applications in water, novel oxidation and separation processes, membrane processes (except those for desalination) , catalytic processes for the removal of water contaminants, sustainable processes, water reuse and recycling, water use and wastewater minimization, integrated/hybrid technology, process modeling of water treatment and novel treatment processes. Submissions on the subject of adsorbents, including standard measurements of adsorption kinetics and equilibrium will only be considered if there is a genuine case for novelty and contribution, for example highly novel, sustainable adsorbents and their use: papers on activated carbon-type materials derived from natural matter, or surfactant-modified clays and related minerals, would not fulfil this criterion. The Journal particularly welcomes contributions involving environmentally, economically and socially sustainable technology for water treatment, including those which are energy-efficient, with minimal or no chemical consumption, and capable of water recycling and reuse that minimizes the direct disposal of wastewater to the aquatic environment. Papers that describe novel ideas for solving issues related to water quality and availability are also welcome, as are those that show the transfer of techniques from other disciplines. The Journal will consider papers dealing with processes for various water matrices including drinking water (except desalination), domestic, urban and industrial wastewaters, in addition to their residues. It is expected that the journal will be of particular relevance to chemical and process engineers working in the field. The Journal welcomes Full Text papers, Short Communications, State-of-the-Art Reviews and Letters to Editors and Case Studies
