Abstract

The solubility product (Ksp) of hydroxyapatite (HAP) in ionic surfactant solutions decreased with an increase in the adsorbed amount of the surface-active ions (dodecylammonium and dodecyl sulfate ions). In the presence of nonionic surfactant (polyoxyethylene(10) octylphenyl ether), Ksp was almost constant within the limit of experimental error. It was concluded that the decrease in Ksp is due to the decrease in the chemical potential of HAP through the adsorption of the surface-active ion on HAP, and due to the spontaneous change in the constituent ions of the HAP surface (i.e., surface complex formation) by ion-exchange with the surface-active ion.

Three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxyapatite@gelatin composite as efficient adsorbent for uranyl ion removal from low-level radioactive wastewater.

The contamination of water resources by uranyl (UO22+) ions poses significant environmental and health risks, requiring the development of efficient and sustainable remediation strategies. Adsorption-based techniques have emerged as promising approaches in the field of UO22+ removal, but the design of cost-effective, high-capacity, and environmentally friendly adsorbents remains challenging. In this study, a three-dimensional porous nano-hydroxyapatite@gelatin (nHAP@Ge) composite was synthesized through glutaraldehyde cross-linking, combining the structural stability of Ge with the high uranium affinity of nHAP. The optimized nHAP@Ge, with a nHAP:Ge mass ratio of 1:0.5, exhibited exceptional UO22+ removal efficiency (97 %), along with high adsorption capacity (364.03 mg/g). Systematic characterizations using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) methods revealed that the porous structure and surface functional groups (-OH, Ca2+, and PO43-) of the material synergistically contributed to binding UO22+ species. Furthermore, the incorporation of nHAP into the Ge framework resulted in enhanced thermal stability while significantly improving the UO22+ adsorption performance. This work presents a scalable, eco-friendly, and recyclable strategy for the effective treatment of uranium-contaminated water, with potential applications in nuclear wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.

Surface functionalization of porous polypropylene membranes with polyaniline for protein immobilization.

Commercial porous polypropylene membranes were chemically modified with polyaniline (PANI) using ammonium persulfate as the oxidizer. The influence of polymerization conditions on the membrane properties was studied by adsorption analysis and membrane permeability. The PANI-coated polypropylene (PANI/PP) membranes possessed high affinity toward the proteins, which can be immobilized onto the membrane surface through physical adsorption or covalent immobilization. The quantity of immobilized horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and its activity depended on the quantity and quality (oxidation level) of PANI. The storage conditions for PANI/PP membranes containing immobilized HRP were studied. HRP immobilized on the PANI/PP membrane was shown to retain 70% of its activity after 3-month storage at +5 degrees C, suggesting that this material can be used for practical application, such as in bioreactors as enzyme membranes.

Modeling of scale-down effects on the hydrodynamics of expanded bed adsorption columns.

Expanded-bed adsorption (EBA) is a technique for primary recovery of proteins starting from unclarified broths. This process combines centrifugation, concentration, filtration, and initial capturing of the proteins in a single step. An expanded bed (EB) is comparable to a packed bed in terms of separation performance but its hydrodynamics are that of a fluidized bed. Downstream process development involving EBA is normally carried out in small columns to minimize time and costs. Our purpose here is to characterize the hydrodynamics of expanded beds of different diameters, to develop scaling parameters that can be reliably used to predict separation efficiency of larger EBA columns. A hydrodynamic model has been developed which takes into account the radial liquid velocity profile in the column. The scale-down effect can be characterized in terms of apparent axial dispersion, D(axl,app), and plate number, N(EB), adapted for expanded bed. The model is in good agreement with experimental results obtained from 1- and 5-cm column diameters with buffer solutions of different viscosities. The model and the experiments show an increase of apparent axial dispersion with an increase in column diameter. Furthermore, the apparent axial dispersion is affected by an increase in liquid velocity and viscosity. Supported by visual observations and predictions from the model, it was concluded that operating conditions (liquid viscosity and superficial velocity) resulting in a bed-void fraction between 0.7 and 0.75 would provide the optimal separation efficiency in terms of N(EB).
