This study explores the efficacy of nano-zirconium oxide (N-ZrO<sub>2</sub>) loaded biochar (BC) for removing inorganic arsenic (iAs), arsenite [As(III)] and arsenate [As(V)], from both freshwater and seawater. Utilizing scanning electron microscopy, flourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, successful loading of N-ZrO<sub>2</sub> onto BC was confirmed, significantly boosting its adsorption capacity to 44.1 mg g<sup>-1</sup> for As(III) and 33.5 mg g<sup>-1</sup> for As(V). The adsorption process, following a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, primarily involved chemisorption, with hydroxyl groups playing a crucial role. The N-ZrO<sub>2</sub>-modified BC exhibited minimal pH sensitivity, demonstrating optimal adsorption at a concentration of 0.5 g L<sup>-1</sup>, surpassing other materials in efficiency and dosage requirements, and exhibiting potential for recyclability. In practical applications, it achieved high removal efficiencies (95 % in freshwater and 86 % in seawater), establishing 700 °C N-ZrO<sub>2</sub>-BC as a proficient adsorbent for simultaneous removal of As(III) and As(V) from contaminated freshwater and seawater.

This study presents an integrated grade classification model to evaluate raw milk quality based on fat content, protein content, and somatic cell count. Near-infrared (NIR) technology was employed to develop a rapid classification model. To address the challenge of modeling the complex nonlinear relationship between raw milk quality grades and spectral variables, a novel hybrid variable selection method based on combining Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) was proposed in this paper. A total of 617 raw milk samples were collected and divided three quality grades. Firstly, various preprocessing methods were applied to raw milk spectral data including Savitzky-Golay smoothing, standard normal variate (SNV), multiplicative scatter correction, and first derivative. SNV was chosen for noise removal according its performance. Then, XGBoost-based forward feature selection (XGBFFS) and further optimized by genetic algorithm (GA) was used to selection variables. For XGBFFS, variable importance values were computed by XGBoost method and variables were selected by forward feature selection. And then GA was employed to further optimize and reduce variable space. The XGBFFS-GA method was applied to quality evaluation of raw milk and compared to traditional variable selections, including ReliefF, uninformative variable elimination, and competitive adaptive reweighted sampling. Integrated models were built by support Vector Machine (SVM) and XGBoost for different variable selection methods. The results indicated that variable selection methods based on XGBoost effectively reduce variable space and the XGBFFS-GA demonstrated the best performance for quality evaluation of raw milk. Finally, the XGBFFS-GA-SVM model achieved the best results, with prediction set accuracy of 94.84% and F1 score of 94.21%.
