Adsorption performance of pristine and Zn-BC3 monolayer for ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin removal
The adsorption of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and levofloxacin (LEVO) on pristine boron carbide (BC3) and Zn-decorated boron carbide (Zn-BC3) monolayer is explored using the density functional theory (DFT) study. Investigations were conducted using the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analysis, natural bond orbital (NBO) charge analysis, electrostatic potential maps (ESP), non-covalent interaction (NCI) analysis, and density of states (DOS) plots. The adsorption of antibiotics on the pristine BC3 monolayer was weak physisorption. However, the adsorption of CIP and LEVO on Zn-BC3 was chemisorption with adsorption energies of −1.37 and − 1.36 eV, respectively. QTAIM analysis depicted the presence of strong interactions between the drug molecules and the Zn-BC3 monolayer. From the NBO analysis, it was observed that the charge transfer in the LEVO@Zn-BC3 complex was the highest (0.588 e−) compared to the CIP@Zn-BC3 (0.240 e−). LEVO@Zn-BC3 complex exhibited the smallest HOMO-LUMO gap (Eg = 2.33 eV) among the two, suggesting that the adsorption of LEVO on the Zn-BC3 was more favorable. The decrease in Eg significantly enhances the electrical conductivity, which can be converted to an electrical signal; thus, it can be used as an electronic sensor for detecting these drug molecules. This study demonstrated the promising application of BC3 monolayer as an effective adsorbing/sensing material for the removal of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin.
