Article Abstract
This work suggests a unique way to manage caffeine (CAF) removal from water by adsorbing it onto an processed industrial waste, cement kiln dust (CKD). To optimze the adsorption process, the main adsorption parameters; pH, time, initial CAF concentration, and dose were evaluated. The results showed that CAF adsorption onto the CKD is a pH-independent (from pH 2 to pH 9) and also it is characterstic with fast equlibrium time (5 min). The maximum adsorption capacity is 1769.03 mg CAF/g of CKD. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses were used to delve into the materials and learn more about their unique properties. The adsorption kinetics showed that Pseudo 2nd order and Pseudo 1st order models fit the data well. All models of the adsorption process, including Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich, Langmuir, Sips, Redlich-Peterson, Langmuir-Freundlich, Baudu and Fritz-Schlunder models were found to have high correlation coefficient values, indicating good agreement. The Transformed Human Liver Epithelial-2 (THLE-2) MTT test was used to determine the 50 % inhibitory concentration (IC50) for cytotoxicity in vitro. Future research into cytotoxicity for reusing CKD should focus on this topic because the IC for CKD was 306.9 g mL but increased to 771.1 g mL following CAF adsorption.

A novel post-modification strategy was developed for rapid functionalization of monoliths through amino-yne click chemistry. This approach enabled the conjugation of activated alkynes onto amino-functionalized organic-silica hybrid monolith surfaces under mild, catalyst-free conditions. Systematic investigation of critical reaction parameters was conducted to optimize the post-modification process.

Background: With the development of modern agriculture, neonicotinoid pesticides have been widely used due to their high efficiency and strong systemic properties. However, excessive use leads to the accumulation of residues in the food chain, threatening the ecosystem and human health. Pesticide residues are easily accumulated in oilseed crops and become concentrated during the edible oil refining process.

The coexistence of antibiotics (AB) and microplastics (MP) in the environment has led to the formation of AB-MP complexes, posing several ecological and public health challenges. This review explores the mechanisms driving AB adsorption onto MPs, including diverse interactions (hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding, π-π stacking, and ionic exchange) and their role in maintaining the persistence and mobility of the complexes. These complexes have been reported to serve as reservoirs/vectors for antimicrobial resistance (AMR), disrupt microbial communities, and enhance the bioavailability of ABs, thus posing various threats affecting biodiversity health and ecosystem stability.

The widespread discharge of emerging micropollutants (EMs) into sewer systems has raised serious environmental concerns throughout the world. However, the transformation mechanisms underlying the accumulation of EMs in sewer sediments remain largely unexplored. This study investigated the transformation fate and mechanisms of chloroxylenol (PCMX) in sewer sediments.

Enhancing anodic hydroxyl (OH) coverage and suppressing leaching of active metal sites are essential for developing efficient and durable alkaline oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts. Herein, we propose amorphous cerium oxide (CeO)-mediated amorphous/crystalline heterointerface engineering to enhance OH coverage and leaching resistance in CeO/Mo-NiS for high-performance OER. CeO with an oxyphilic surface facilitates OH adsorption, promoting in situ reconstruction of NiS into nickel hydroxyl oxide (NiOOH) with significantly enhanced OH coverage and thereby accelerating OER kinetics.
