“…During the process, two functional groups, (-OPO3H-) and (CaOH2+), were formed, both of which are positively charged with the ammonium functional group and negatively charged with the phenolic diketone moiety of TC species. The removal of TC was also aided by the effect of hydrogen bonding and surface complexes formed between TC and Ca [ 109 ].…”

The provision of safe water for people is a human right; historically, a major number of people depend on groundwater as a source of water for their needs, such as agricultural, industrial or human activities. Water resources have recently been affected by organic and/or inorganic contaminants as a result of population growth and increased anthropogenic activity, soil leaching and pollution. Water resource remediation has become a serious environmental concern, since it has a direct impact on many aspects of people’s lives. For decades, the pump-and-treat method has been considered the predominant treatment process for the remediation of contaminated groundwater with organic and inorganic contaminants. On the other side, this technique missed sustainability and the new concept of using renewable energy. Permeable reactive barriers (PRBs) have been implemented as an alternative to conventional pump-and-treat systems for remediating polluted groundwater because of their effectiveness and ease of implementation. In this paper, a review of the importance of groundwater, contamination and biological, physical as well as chemical remediation techniques have been discussed. In this review, the principles of the permeable reactive barrier’s use as a remediation technique have been introduced along with commonly used reactive materials and the recent applications of the permeable reactive barrier in the remediation of different contaminants, such as heavy metals, chlorinated solvents and pesticides. This paper also discusses the characteristics of reactive media and contaminants’ uptake mechanisms. Finally, remediation isotherms, the breakthrough curves and kinetic sorption models are also being presented. It has been found that groundwater could be contaminated by different pollutants and must be remediated to fit human, agricultural and industrial needs. The PRB technique is an efficient treatment process that is an inexpensive alternative for the pump-and-treat procedure and represents a promising technique to treat groundwater pollution.

“…Adsorption is highly efficient at preventing pollutants from traveling through the water system, which makes it ideal for removing AMX. Adsorption is appealing because it relies on the use of various sorbents [3], particularly those derived from industrial wastes like sewage sludge [4], dust of cement kiln [5], wastes of iron casting [6], zero-valent iron and zero-valent aluminum [7,8] ash from rice husk [9] activated carbon and date stones [10] and others.…”

The addition of new reactive sites on the surface area of the inert sand, which are represented by layered double hydroxide nanoparticles, is the primary goal of this work, which aims to transform the sand into a reactive material. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactant is used in the reaction of calcium extracted from solid waste-chicken eggshells with aluminum prepared from the cheapest coagulant-alum. By separating amoxicillin from wastewater, the performance of coated sand named as "sand coated with (Ca/Al-CTAB)-LDH" was evaluated. Measurements demonstrated that pH of 12 from 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, CTAB dosage of 0.05 g from 0, 0.03, 0.05, and 0.1 g, ratio of Ca/Al of 2 from 1, 2, 3, and 4, and mass of sand of 1 g/50 mL from 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5 g/50 mL are the optimal manufacturing conditions for coated sand to guarantee an antibiotic removal efficiency greater than 80. After planting the LDH nanoparticles, characterization analyses revealed that the generation of a plate-like layer composed of loosely aggregated micrometric plates had significantly altered the structure of sand. Finally, as the sorbent mass increased as well as the flow rate and inlet contaminant concentration (Co) decreased, the longevity of coated sand in the packed column significantly increased. In comparison to the Belter-Cussler-Hu and Yan models, the Thomas-BDST model provides a more accurate simulation of measured breakthrough curves.

“…This is due to the large volume generated and its toxic composition. [ 1 ] Many efforts have been made to promote the valorization of this residue, looking for applications such as adsorbent, [ 2 ] composting, [ 3 ] production of composites, [ 4 ] and fuel production. [ 5 ] However, it is still obvious that this field of study needs to advance, mainly in developing countries.…”

This manuscript reports the valorization of sewage sludge with the production of activated carbon. Thus, a series of 11 adsorbents are produced, activated with different substances (salt, acid, and base), and their adsorptive properties are carefully evaluated. The C6 series of activated carbons prove to be very efficient for removing nitrate anions from aqueous medium and, due to this, it is evaluated as a catalytic support for palladium nanoparticles. The generated solid, named Pd@CA6F, is the first report of a catalyst containing activated carbon from sewage sludge that is efficient in the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling. The catalytic system developed is eco-friendly, phosphine-free, and of low cost. Good yields are obtained in the coupling of aryl iodides with phenylboronic acid in a short time. The same catalyst load could be recycled for up to ten times.
