RESUMEN
This research uses a novel TiO2@CSC.Alg composite sponge was created by encasing TiO2 nanoparticles in the natural polymers alginate and chitosan, resulting in a nanocomposite that is both ecologically friendly and biocompatible. Using the generated nanocomposite as a new environmentally friendly adsorbent, As(V) heavy metal ions were effectively removed from aqueous media. The following techniques were used to analyse the physicochemical properties of the obtained materials: pHZPC, FTIR, XRD, BET, SEM, and XPS. Utilizing nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms, the TiO2@CSC.Alg composite sponge's textural properties were identified. This revealed a BET surface area of 168.42 m2/g and a total pore volume of 1.18 cc/g, indicating its porous nature and potential for high adsorption capacity. Examine the effects of temperature, pH, dose, and beginning concentration on adsorption. The adsorption characteristics were determined based on equilibrium and adsorption kinetics measurements. The adsorption process was both pseudo-second-order (PSOE) and Langmuir isothermally fit. Chemisorption was the adsorption method since the adsorption energy was 25.45 kJ·mol-1. An endothermic and spontaneous adsorption process was indicated by more metal being absorbed as the temperature increased. The optimal conditions for adsorption were optimized via Box-Behnken design software to be pH of 5 in the solution, a dosage of 0.02 g of the TiO2@CSC.Alg composite sponge per 25 mL, and an arsenate (As(V)) solution the adsorption capacity was 202.27 mg/g are ideal for efficient adsorption. These parameters are critical in achieving the maximum adsorption capacity of the composite sponge for arsenate, which could be beneficial for water purification applications. Utilizing Design-Expert software's response surface methodology (RSM) and Box-Behnken design (BBD), the adsorption process was optimized with the fewest planned tests. After six successive cycles of adsorption and desorption, the adsorbent stability was confirmed by the adsorbent reusability test without any noticeable decrease in removal efficacy. Additionally, it displayed good efficiency, the same XRD and XPS data before and after reuse, and no change in chemical composition.

Manufacturing a highly effective sorbent for removing UO22+ ions from aqueous effluents is vital for safeguarding the environment and recovering valuable resources. This research presents an innovative strategy employing adsorbents derived from pullulan, specifically tailored with furfuryl-amidoxime (FAO), to improve their affinity for UO22+ ions. The formation of a UO22+ ion-imprinted sorbent (U-II-P) was achieved by crosslinking the UO22+/FAO-modified pullulan (FAO-P) complex with bis(maleimido)ethane (BME) via click Diels-Alder (DA) cyclization, enhancing its attraction and specificity for UO22+ ions. Detailed characterization of the synthesis was performed using NMR and FTIR spectroscopy, and the sorbent's external textures were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The U-II-P sorbent showcased outstanding preference for UO22+ over other metallic ions, with the most efficient adsorption occurring at pH 5. It exhibited a significant adsorption capacity of 262 mg/g, closely aligning with the predictions of the Langmuir adsorption model and obeying pseudo-second-order kinetic behavior. This investigation underlines the effectiveness of FAO-P as a specialized solution for UO22+ ion extraction from wastewater, positioning it as a viable option for the remediation of heavy metals.

A potential bio-adsorbent material for removing Rhodamine B (RB) from aqueous solution is Ru-MOF@FGA/CA beads. The adsorption capability of the material is probably enhanced by the use of a natural substance made of food-grade algae (FGA) and calcium alginate (CA), which has been cross-linked and loaded with ruthenium metal-organic frameworks (Ru-MOF). The Ru-MOF@FGA/CA beads were analyzed by XPS, PXRD, FT-IR, and SEM. The nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm analysis of the Ru-MOF@FGA/CA beads before and after the adsorption of RB revealed that had a surface area of 682 m2/g, a pore size of 2.92 nm, and a pore volume of 1.62 cc/g, that decreased after adsorption as the surface area reduced to 468.62 m2/g, while the pore volume reduced to 0.76 cc/g. indicating that the RB molecules occupied the available space within the pores of the material. The decrease in both surface area and pore volume specifies that the Ru-MOF@FGA/CA beads' pores were able to effectively adsorb the RB molecules. The adsorption of RB against the Ru-MOF@FGA/CA beads is affected by pH, adsorbent dose, starting RB concentration, and salinity. Controlling these factors can enhance the adsorption capability and effectiveness of the beads for RB removal. With an adsorption energy of 22.6 kJ/mol, the adsorption of RB onto the Ru-MOF@FGA/CA beads was determined to be a chemisorption process, demonstrating a strong bond among the adsorbent and the adsorbate. The pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir isotherms were used to suit the adsorption process. Because the adsorption procedure was endothermic, it increased as the temperature increased. By using this information, the adsorption conditions may be improved, and the beads' ability to absorb RB can be increased. Up to six reuses of the Ru-MOF@FGA/CA beads are possible without affecting their chemical makeup and maintaining analogous PXRD and FT-IR data after each reuse. The adsorption process can be optimized through the application of the Box-Behnken design (BBD) approach and may entail H-bonding, electrostatic forces, n-π stacking, and pore filling. The exceptional stability of the beads makes them useful for creating long-lasting and efficient adsorbents that remove contaminants from water.

This study introduces a novel approach for the separation of indacrinone (IC) enantiomers, crucial in treating edema, hypertension, and hyperuricemia. A cationic biopolymer from furan-2-ylmethylhydrazine-cellulose (FUH-CE), derived from cyanoethyl cellulose (CEC), serving as a substrate in molecular imprinting. A key innovation is the use of the Diels-Alder reaction for efficient cross-linking with bis(maleimido)ethane (BME). This chemical strategy resulted in molecularly imprinted microparticles with high selectivity for the S-IC enantiomer, which can be eluted by adjusting the solution's pH. Extensive characterization confirmed the chemical modifications and selective binding efficacy of these biopolymers. Utilizing separation columns, our method achieved an impressive chiral resolution of (±)-IC, with an enantiomeric excess (ee) of 95 % for R-IC during the loading phase and 97 % for S-IC during elution. Under optimized conditions, the biopolymer demonstrated a maximum binding capacity of 131 mg/g at pH 6. This advanced approach represents a significant advancement in chiral separation technology, offering a robust and efficient technique for the selective isolation of enantiomers. This method not only enhances potential targeted therapeutic applications but also provides a scalable solution for industrial chiral separations.

Developing a sorbent for the removal of La3+ ions from wastewater offers significant environmental and economic advantages. This study employed an ion-imprinting process to integrate La3+ ions into a newly developed derivative of aminoguanidine-chitosan (AGCS), synthesized via an innovative method. The process initiated with the modification of chitosan by attaching cyanoacetyl groups through amide bonds, yielding cyanoacetyl chitosan (CAC). This derivative underwent further modification with aminoguanidine to produce the chelating AGCS biopolymer. The binding of La3+ ions to AGCS occurred through imprinting and cross-linking with epichlorohydrin (ECH), followed by the extraction of La3+, resulting in the La3+ ion-imprinted sorbent (La-AGCS). Structural confirmation of these chitosan derivatives was established through elemental analysis, FTIR, and NMR. SEM analysis revealed that La-AGCS exhibited a more porous structure compared to the smoother non-imprinted polymer (NIP). La-AGCS demonstrated superior La3+ capture capability, with a maximum capacity of 286 ± 1 mg/g. The adsorption process, fitting the Langmuir and pseudo-second-order models, indicated a primary chemisorption mechanism. Moreover, La-AGCS displayed excellent selectivity for La3+, exhibiting selectivity coefficients ranging from 4 to 13 against other metals. This study underscores a strategic approach in designing advanced materials tailored for La3+ removal, capitalizing on specific chelator properties and ion-imprinting technology.
