Article Abstract

Novel nanocomposite hydrogel was synthesized based on κ-carrageenan and nano-silver chloride by a simple method and applied for the removal of cationic dyes in aqueous solution. Inclusion of nano-silver chloride into the superabsorbent hydrogel was utilized for producing the effective dye absorbent. The dye absorption was more than 98% after 5min in a 10ppm aqueous solution at pH=6. The nanocomposite hydrogel was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, TEM, TGA/DTG, and BET analysis. The absorption of crystal violet was investigated by changing the absorbent dosage, contact time, dye concentration, pH, and temperature. Several kinetic models were used to predict the kinetic behavior of the dye absorption. The best result was obtained with the pseudo-second order model. The results demonstrated that the Temkin model has been fitted better than the other models. The reusability experiments showed that the superabsorbent retained more than 60% of initial activity after 9 cycles.

Azo dyes, prevalent in various industries, including textile dyeing, food, and cosmetics, pose significant environmental and health risks due to their chemical stability and toxicity. This study introduces the synthesis and application of a copper hydrogen-π-bonded benzoate framework (Cu-HBF) and its derived marigold flower-like copper oxide (MFL-CuO) in a synergetic adsorption-photocatalytic process for efficiently removing cationic azo dyes from water, specifically crystal violet (CV), methylene blue (MB), and rhodamine B (RhB). The Cu-HBF, previously available only in single crystal form, is prepared here as a crystalline powder for the first time, using a low-cost and facile procedure, allowing its application as an adsorbent and also serving as a precursor for synthesizing well-structured copper oxide (MFL-CuO).

This study quantitatively evaluated the adsorption performance of natural bentonite for removing three dye classes-cationic (Basic dye: BEZACRYL RED GRL), anionic (Reactive dye: AVITERA LIGHT RED SE), and non-ionic (Disperse dye: BEMACRON BLUE HP3R) from synthetic textile wastewater. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted under varying conditions of contact time (15-90 min), adsorbent dosage (20-60 g L⁻), pH (4 and 12), and temperature (25-100 °C), with dye concentrations quantified by UV-Vis spectroscopy. At a contact time of 30 min and room temperature (25 °C), maximum removal efficiencies reached 99.

Lignin, a negatively charged, three-dimensional natural biopolymer, serves as an ideal support for metal catalysts due to its abundant functional groups and tunable chemical properties, which enable strong metal coordination and effective immobilization. Herein, we demonstrate a lignin-mediated Co/O co-doped AgS, symbolized as L-AgCoOS, bimetal oxysulfide catalyst via a facile hydrolysis method for the efficient reduction of toxic phenolic compounds (4-nitrophenol, 4-NP), organic dyes (methyl orange (MO), methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RhB), and heavy metal ions Cr(VI)) under dark conditions. Lignin, used to immobilize catalysts, also contributes to increasing the number of active catalytic sites and enhancing catalytic activity.

Background: The development of specific fluorescent probes for cancer cell discrimination holds significant promise for advancing cancer diagnostics. Conventionally, these probes operate by translating differences in biomarkers or microenvironmental factors into variations in whole-cell fluorescence intensity. However, this dominant, intensity-based strategy is highly susceptible to extraneous fluctuations arising from probe concentration, illumination instability and complex intracellular environment.
