It is, therefore, necessary to treat wastewater effluent from textile industries before it is discharged into water sources. Herein, we report the potential of organically cross-linked polyacrylamide-based nanocomposite hydrogels to rapidly and effectively absorb different dye molecules (methylene blue (MB), phenol red (PR), and methyl orange (MO)) from their respective low-concentrated water solutions. The polyacrylamide-hexagonal boron nitride nanocomposite hydrogel (PAM/hBN) was prepared by reacting PAM molecules with organic cross-linkers such as N, N’ methylene bisacrylamide (MBS) in the presence of hBN at high temperatures (150 °C; 8 h.). The FT-IR results revealed the successful formation of the PAM/hBN nanocomposite hydrogels. The differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) results also complement the nanocomposite formation as the melting temperature of PAM/hBN nanocomposite is comparatively higher than that of the neat-PAM hydrogel. The SEM showed that the PAM/hBN nanocomposite has macroporous morphology (average pore size of 2 μm) while neat-PAM hydrogel exhibited dense structures. The equilibrium absorption of PAM/hBN nanocomposite hydrogels is as high as 13.5 mg/g, while the equilibrium is reached within 10 min. The porous morphology of the nanocomposite hydrogels promotes the mass transfer process and leads to the rapid absorption of dye molecules from low-concentrated water solutions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100290,"journal":{"name":"Colloids and Surfaces C: Environmental Aspects","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100055"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143095576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The novelty of this research is its development of a cost-effective and highly efficient EC process, specifically optimized for sunflower oil wastewater. The effectiveness of EC in reducing turbidity was evaluated through experimental analysis. The Taguchi methodology was employed to optimize critical process parameters: pH, operating voltage, EC duration, electrode spacing, and sodium chloride concentration. The Optimal conditions identified were pH 6, 30 V, 80 minutes of EC duration, 5 cm electrode spacing, and 0.2 g/L NaCl, achieving an impressive oil removal rate of 94.46 %, along with high energy efficiency. Characterization of the electrodes using UV spectroscopy, SEM, and EDX under these optimal conditions further supported the findings. The study also examined the operating cost (OC) associated with the EC process using aluminium electrodes. Energy consumption ranged from 0.96 kWh/m³ to 22.61 kWh/m³ , while aluminium electrode consumption varied between 0.06 kgAl/m³ and 0.275 kgAl/m³ . The OC fluctuated from 0.252 to 4.654 USD per 1000 litres of oil wastewater treatment across nine orthogonal array experiments.

Entering the environment via municipal wastewater, a bulk of the microplastics found are synthetic textile fiber fragments (FFs) generated from washing of synthetic fabrics. Separating the synthetic from natural FFs at laundry effluents could prevent eventual pollution of rivers and oceans. In this study we characterize representative synthetic and natural FFs to identify key properties that distinguish the FF material types towards achieving selective separation. Our data show polyester FFs and cotton FFs differ in their hydrophobicity, which can be leveraged for targeted separation. Based on differences in hydrophobicity and associated thermodynamic driving forces, selective removal of polyester FFs from a mixture of polyester and cotton FFs is demonstrated. In a batch process utilizing flotation, bubbles are used to selectively separate synthetic polyester FFs from natural cotton FFs in mixed-fiber solutions containing salt (NaCl). Using principal component analysis (PCA) of Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy data, the FF compositional make up is quantified for analysis of separation efficiency and recovery of synthetic FFs. The synthetic FF recovery and separation efficiency is then evaluated as a function of time, FF concentration, and FF composition. All experimental conditions evaluated in the study showed selective recovery of polyester over cotton FFs, and for the configurations tested, batch times longer than 15 min had minimal efficiency gains. This study demonstrates separation of two representative FFs dispersed in salt solution as a first step toward microplastics remediation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100290,"journal":{"name":"Colloids and Surfaces C: Environmental Aspects","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100084"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145464856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
