Thirty-six anaerobic mixed sludge samples were collected from six different types of sewage treatment plant network in Dhaka city, Bangladesh. Total and fraction concentration of heavy metals in sludge samples were analysed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer following acid digestion. The mean ranges of chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn) in the sludges were 237.3–381.8, 108.5–220.2, 116.1–207.2, 14.9–56.1, 0.68–2.86, 72.4–172.0, 12055 –20,015, 64.8–170.6 and 117.5–178.5 mg/kg, respectively. The data of geochemical speciation showed that Fe, Zn, Ni, Cu and Mn were associated with the residual fraction, whereas As, Cd and Pb showed predominant proportion in the exchangeable fraction, indicating the severity of risk by As, Cd and Pb to the surrounding ecosystem. The findings of the study revealed that heavy metals posed moderate to considerable ecological risk. Anthropogenic activities including industrial wastes and agricultural chemicals are substantial sources for heavy metals in the sludge of STP network in the study area.KEYWORDS: Bangladeshheavy metalssequential extractionsludgeSTP network AcknowledgmentsThe samples collected in Bangladesh were brought into Japan based on the permission issued by the Yokohama Plant Protection Station (Import permit No. 25Y324 and 25Y1009).

Using eco-friendly clay-based adsorbents, samples of halloysite (H) processed at 600°C (H600-0N) and then HCl-leached with 3 N concentration (H600-3N) were prepared, characterised by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP), N2 adsorption – desorption, and infrared spectroscopy with Fourier transform (FTIR), and used in DCF adsorption. H600-3N exhibited a substantial surface area increase from 63 m2 g−1 for H to 434 m2 g−1 due to an elevated SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ratio of 23.83 against 1.72 for H. In this context, H600-3N and H adsorbed 165 mg g−1 and 37.9 mg g−1 of DCF, respectively. The isotherms of H600-xN(x = 0 or 3) were adequately adjusted to the Langmuir-Freundlich model, while the kinetic data were suitably described by the pseudo-second order equation. Through cross-checking the results of characterisation, DCF adsorption and the FTIR investigation between DCF and H600-3N, a mechanism has been suggested that includes two main components: hydrogen bonding between the silanol’s hydrogen atom and the negatively charged carboxylate anion and hydrophobic interactions between the – Si – O – Si – entities and the DCF aromatic rings. The elucidation of intermolecular interactions between organic contaminants and 1:1 clay minerals is essential to develop the application of these abundant and low-cost materials in wastewater treatment.KEYWORDS: Halloysitemodificationcharacterizationdiclofenac adsorptioninteractionsmechanism Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).","PeriodicalId":13973,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135265648","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The pristine ZA-LDH nanoadsorbent was characterised using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformation spectroscopy (FTIR), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The results revealed the formation of single-phase ZA-LDH nanopowder with sheet-like morphology. The optimisation of adsorption kinetic parameters with the fixed dose of 10 mg for 50 ml of 0.03 mg/ml MO and AY dye solution was performed using the Box Behnken design model (BBD). The effects of three independent variables such as incubation time, temperature and pH of the suspended ZA-LDH nanoadsorbents in the MO and AY dye solution on the adsorption kinetics were studied. Optimum values for the maximum adsorption capacity were evaluated that included the incubation time of 52.4 min, the temperature of 35.45 ± 0.55°C, and the pH of 5.75 ± 0.75. According to the BBD model, ZA-LDH nanoadsorbent exhibited the maximum adsorption percentage of 99.84% and 99.99% of corresponding MO and AY dye, respectively. The ZA-LDH adsorbent retained up to 72.3% for the MO and 60.43% for the AY dye of regeneration capacity after 5 cycles of regeneration. The adsorption kinetic and isotherm of the MO and AY dyes onto the ZA-LDH nanoadsorbent were well fitted with pseudo second order kinetic model and Langmuir model, respectively. According to Langmuir isotherm, the maximum adsorption capacities of 601.62 mg/g for the MO dye and 462.48 mg/g for the AY dye onto the ZA-LDH were found and those confirmed the monolayer chemisorption mechanism in this case.KEYWORDS: Adsorption kineticsBox Behnken design modelnitrate intercalated ZnAl-LDHresponse surface methodology AcknowledgmentsThe Department of Biotechnology, India [Research grant BT/PR13005/MED/31/294/2015] is duly acknowledged in the manuscript for their financial support.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThe work was supported by the The Department of Biotechnology, India [BT/PR13005/MED/31/294/2015].","PeriodicalId":13973,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135265955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is estimated that around 25% of global food production is contaminated with mycotoxins, which can be produced by certain types of fungi that infect crops during different stages of growth. As a result, it is crucial to monitor mycotoxins in food sources and develop effective methods for removal or reduction. One technique commonly used for detecting and separating mycotoxins is immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC). Traditionally, IAC uses antibodies covalently bonded to a solid support material, but this can lead to conformational changes and reduced affinity towards the analytes. To address these limitations, researchers have explored alternative methods for immobilising biomolecules, such as the sol-gel method, which involves encapsulating biomolecules within the pores of a glass matrix. This approach makes it easier to reuse the immunoaffinity columns and reduces the need for bacteriostatic agents, making the process more cost-effective and efficient. The results showed that sol-gel IAS was able to effectively separate these toxins from complex matrices, demonstrating its potential for widespread application in food safety monitoring. Additionally, the ability of sol-gel IAS to remove mycotoxins from environmental samples tested was highlighting its versatility and potential for broader applications beyond food safety. Finally, they demonstrated the compatibility of sol-gel IAS with high-performance liquid chromatography, enabling online coupling of the two techniques for improved efficiency and accuracy. The findings of this study suggest that sol-gel IAC is a promising method for the detection and separation of mycotoxins in various matrices, including food, environmental samples, and other biological fluids. Its advantages over traditional IAC methods make it an attractive option for large-scale analysis and monitoring of mycotoxins in diverse settings.KEYWORDS: Sol-gel immunoaffinity chromatographydeoxynivalenolzearalenonefood and environmental samples Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.","PeriodicalId":13973,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135265809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three analytes, namely N-(1-(diethylamino)ethylidene)-P-methylphosphonamidic fluoride (A230), methyl N-(1-(diethylamino)ethylidene)phosphoramidofluoridate (A232) and ethyl N-(1-(diethylamino)ethylidene)phosphoramidofluoridate (A234), were taken as representative chemicals in aqueous samples and extracted with established protocols, such as liquid–liquid extraction (LLE), solid phase extraction (SPE), solid-supported liquid extraction (SLE) and liquid phase microextraction (LPME) techniques. The extraction efficacies were evaluated in terms of the recoveries of analytes as well as the removal of background interferences. Amongst the extraction techniques, SLE offered the least (43.2–66.7%) and LLE and SPE-HLB offered the best recoveries (79.1–92.9%) of the analytes with adequate sample clean-up. LPME techniques produced much better detection limits, going down to 7.6 ng/mL for A234.

Numerous traditional techniques are applied to remove the TC antibiotics from the water solution. However, these procedures have not helped to get rid of TC antibiotics. So, in this work, photocatalytic TC degradation has been considered. Hydrothermal synthesis was used to create the CoFe2O4/MWCNTs nano-composite, and various techniques were used to characterise it. The characterisation experiments revealed that multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are successfully incorporated into cobalt ferrite spinel (CoFe2O4) nanoparticles and this limits the rate at which charge carriers recombine after combining with MWCNTs. The effectiveness of the catalyst was then evaluated in a batch reactor using the weight percentage variation of the nano-composite, specifically TC 0.5, TC 01, TC 02, TC 03, and TC 04, with constant pH 7, with TC concentration of 0.05 g/L and nano-composite dosage of 0.6 g/L for 120 min under 120 W/m2 of visible light. The same operational settings were used to study the TC degradation using CoFe2O4 and MWCNTs as individual pure materials. According to the findings, using CoFe2O4/MWCNTs with a weight percentage ratio of 1:4 (TC 04) increased the photocatalytic degradation efficiency to 90.00% compared to pure materials. After being utilised three times in a row, the photocatalysts were as-produced, and it was discovered that there was an approximate 2.7% decrease in removal efficiency. As a result of its comparatively straightforward synthesis, high stability, and high potential for recycling, CoFe2O4/MWCNTs nano-composite, specifically, TC 04, demonstrated a respectable efficiency in the TC degradation. Therefore, this material will make it possible to eliminate and degrade pharmaceutical organic contaminants.KEYWORDS: CoFe2O4/MWCNTsnanocompositetetracycline degradationvisible light kineticsdegradation mechanism AcknowledgmentsThe authors acknowledge Centennial Physics Ph.D. Instrumentation Centre, Department of Physics, Loyola College, Chennai-600 034.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Supplementary dataSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/03067319.2023.2264787.","PeriodicalId":13973,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Analytical Chemistry","volume":"15 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135412943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
