Three-Dimensional Electrosorption for Pharmaceutical Wastewater Management and Sustainable Biochar Regeneration

Molecules, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 30(7), С. 1435 - 1435

Опубликована: Март 24, 2025

The adsorption capacity of a biochar (BC) obtained from pine wood residues was evaluated for its ability to remove two pharmaceuticals: fluoxetine (FLX) and sulfamethizole (SMZ). material showed promising results in FLX removal, but limited the case SMZ. In order improve these results, BC surface modifications were made by doping with nitrogen, as well using acid, basic electrochemical treatments. A three-dimensional electrosorption treatment proved be most effective, increasing rate 0.45 13.46 mg/g after evaluating different operating conditions, such electrodes used or dosage. Consecutive cycles use performed through desorption electro-regeneration techniques test reuse, it observed that application 25 mA electric field increased useful life material. Finally, effect ionic strength studied, highlighting presence ions did not significantly affect efficiency SMZ although slight increase at high ion concentration, probably due salinization effect.

Review of PPCPs remediation in Asia: the role of agricultural waste in adsorption-membrane hybrid technology

Chemical Engineering Communications, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown, С. 1 - 35

Опубликована: Янв. 7, 2025

The escalating prevalence of emerging contaminants, notably pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs), poses a significant threat to global freshwater reservoirs, environmental equilibrium, human well-being. Trace amounts these micropollutants persist within aquatic environments, posing challenges in their detection, analysis, wastewater remediation using conventional approaches. Enhanced tertiary treatments (ETTs), encompassing methods such as adsorption on activated carbon (AAC), advanced oxidation processes (AOP), membrane separation process (MSP), have been introduced address challenges. This review underscores the pressing necessity for economical efficacious alternatives, with particular focus polymeric technology membrane-based treatment. approach demonstrates cost-effectiveness, facile production, excellent pollutant selectivity. Furthermore, paper explores viability utilizing agricultural waste an alternative adsorbent material adsorption-membrane hybrid systems. Introducing innovative approach—adsorption-membrane waste—this advances beyond existing literature. By leveraging alongside unique attributes adsorbents, this strategy aims enhance efficacy Noteworthy its comprehensive exploration precursors derived from waste, presents novel promising avenue treatment advancement.

Advances in environmental engineering and green technologies book series, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown, С. 299 - 336

Опубликована: Янв. 16, 2025

In recent decades, the use of pharmaceutical products has been increased tremendously with over thirty million tons pharmaceuticals are consumed worldwide. Pharmacological drugs have a crucial role in preserving health and welfare both humans animals. Many used not completely metabolized human animal body leading to gets accumulated rivers, lakes, drinking water worldwide as persistent organic chemicals causing severe damage aquatic ecosystems. This chapter analyses several biotechnology methods employed remove APIs from wastewater, specifically emphasizing biological treatments that harness capabilities microorganisms enzymes. The present paper provides thorough analysis microbial degradation, bioaugmentation, application bioreactors. Furthermore, it highlights efficacy, challenges, potential for integration into existing treatment systems (Figure 1).
