Article Abstract
Recovering phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) from wastewater not only contributes to environmental protection but also aligns with sustainable development goals. This study employed a magnesium-air fuel cell (Mg-O-FC) to extract P and N from wastewater in the form of struvite (MgNH·6HO), based on the removal efficiency of ammonia and phosphate, electricity generation capacity and struvite purity to determine the optimal operation parameters. These parameters included hydraulic retention time (HRT), service life of magnesium sheet, and precipitation discharge frequency. The results showed that the removal efficiency of ammonia from 0 to 4h was 55.99%, and that from 4 to 12h was only 15.74%. The phosphate removal efficiency in the initial cycle was 97.68% but decreased to 63.25% after 24h. The phosphate removal rate in 2 min increased by 145% when the precipitation discharge frequency increased from 4 h/time to 24 h/time. Consequently, the HRT, service life of the magnesium sheet, and precipitation discharge frequency were selected as 4 h, 24 h, and 24 h/time. These optimized conditions provide valuable insights for the practical implementation of Mg-O-FC in recovering N and P from wastewater.

This study presents a hybrid microfiltration technology designed for high-performance lead (Pb(II)) remediation, especially from aqueous solutions with high Pb(II) concentrations, by utilizing two-dimensional (2D) TiCT-MXene layers deposited on dry mycelium membranes. The hybrid TiCT-MXene/mycelium (MyMX) membranes were fabricated via a single-step electrochemical deposition (ECD) technique, which enabled a uniform coating of 2D TiCT-MXene onto individual hyphal fibers of a prefabricated mycelium membrane. Optimized ECD parameters for high Pb(II) uptake were identified using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.

Mesoporous materials have garnered significant interest because of their porous structure, large surface area and ease of surface functionalization to incorporate the functional groups of choice. Herein, chiral mesoporous silica nanoparticles (CMSNPs) were prepared using quaternary amino silane as the template, tetramethyl orthosilicate as the silica source and proline and cellulose as chiral selector. The developed CMSNPs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, BET surface area analysis and BJH pore size/volume analysis.

This study focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and evaluation of the photocatalytic efficiency of bismuth-based metal-organic frameworks (Bi-MOFs) and their derivatives, specifically Ag/Bi-MOF and NH /Ag/Bi-MOF, in the degradation of tetracycline (TC) and sulfamethoxazole (SMX) under visible light irradiation. Bi-MOFs are promising photocatalysts due to their large surface area, tunable porosity, and unique electronic properties that are favorable for visible light absorption. In this study, Bi-MOFs were synthesized using a solvothermal method, with the incorporation of silver (Ag) and ammonium (NH ) ions to enhance their photocatalytic performance.
