Hydrogel-based materials as antibacterial agents and super adsorbents for the remediation of emerging pollutants: A comprehensive review

Emerging contaminants, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 10(3), P. 100336 - 100336

Published: March 29, 2024

Hydrogels have various potential applications due to their unique characteristics and recently, hydrogels been utilized as adsorbents in wastewater treatment because of ability remove contaminants from water. Constructing strong with high adsorption capabilities is crucial for effective treatment. Scientists researchers are working improve the properties by incorporating inorganic elements into polymer networks, which further reduces costs well simplifies preparation. Natural polymers like starch alginate widespread economic biological advantages, such biodegradability, biocompatibility, reduced toxicity, environmental friendliness, low cost. The pollutants onto use antimicrobial agents has garnered significant attention. This review paper summarizes latest studies on using endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), persistent organic (POPs), other emerging water environments along agents. In first step, different classes characterization techniques discussed. Next elaborated understand how these can be a candidate activities. While discussing application hydrogels, isothermal, kinetics thermodynamics models discussed highlight mechanism nature forces involved pollutants. Further simulations DFT MD get more holistic understanding hydrogels.

Recent progress in biodegradation of microplastics by Aspergillus sp. in aquatic environments

Colloids and Interface Science Communications, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 57, P. 100754 - 100754

Published: Nov. 1, 2023

The potential of Aspergillus sp. for plastic biodegradation is a promising approach environmentally friendly waste management. Various research studies have been conducted to optimize conditions that enhance the plastics and understand genetic basis species. By performing this investigation, we discussed role various species in decomposition polymers. Most grow within pH range 4 6. 37.5% showed grows optimally at 30 °C. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) tests were used 34.61% 32.69% different studies, respectively. It has observed fungi can biodegrade polymers more effectively size 20–100 μm. (34.21%) focused on 21 days. highest percentage (44%) low-density polyethylene (LDPE) by dominant sp., including A. niger, flavus, oryzae, play significant microplastics. Enzymes such as laccase, esterase, peroxidase, lipase, urease crucial roles degradation plastics. Laccase utilizes oxygen generate reactive species, breaking polymer chains. Esterase cleaves into fragments, while peroxidase generates radicals degradation. Lipases also contribute specific substrates. In general, it be said fungal successful degrading
