“…Towards bioremediation, the metabolism-dependent processes for biosorption involves generally two steps: (i) the attachment of the pollutant on the surface of the cell, or vice-versa, depending on the size ratio, and (ii) the active or passive transportation of the pollutant into the cell [31]. The biomass can be immobilized or combined with membrane separation in order to improve the uptake of plastic particles [31]. Biodegradation can be summarized in four essential steps, which have been described in detail in previous works [72][73][74].…”

Massive plastic accumulation has been taking place across diverse landscapes since the 1950s, when large-scale plastic production started. Nowadays, societies struggle with continuously increasing concerns about the subsequent pollution and environmental stresses that have accompanied this plastic revolution. Degradation of used plastics is highly time-consuming and causes volumetric aggregation, mainly due to their high strength and bulky structure. The size of these agglomerations in marine and freshwater basins increases daily. Exposure to weather conditions and environmental microflora (e.g., bacteria and microalgae) can slowly corrode the plastic structure. As has been well documented in recent years, plastic fragments are widespread in marine basins and partially in main global rivers. These are potential sources of negative effects on global food chains. Cyanobacteria (e.g., Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, and Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942), which are photosynthetic microorganisms and were previously identified as blue-green algae, are currently under close attention for their abilities to capture solar energy and the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide for the production of high-value products. In the last few decades, these microorganisms have been exploited for different purposes (e.g., biofuels, antioxidants, fertilizers, and ‘superfood’ production). Microalgae (e.g., Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, and Phaeodactylum tricornutum) are also suitable for environmental and biotechnological applications based on the exploitation of solar light. Can photosynthetic bacteria and unicellular eukaryotic algae play a role for further scientific research in the bioremediation of plastics of different sizes present in water surfaces? In recent years, several studies have been targeting the utilization of microorganisms for plastic bioremediation. Among the different phyla, the employment of wild-type or engineered cyanobacteria may represent an interesting, environmentally friendly, and sustainable option.

“…18,19 However, polymeric membranes have some limitations, for example, withstand against abrasive chemicals; therefore, plenty of improvement rooms are available. 20 In the current revolutionized era, numerous nanomaterials such as nanoparticles, 18 3D architectures of carbon and graphene, 21,22 metalorganic frame-works, 23 biosorbents, 24 and tailored zeolites 25 reinforcing polymeric membranes have been used for purification applications. Nevertheless, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been in the spotlight in purification and desalination industry due to their tremendous water transport capability, higher aspect ratio, ease of functionalization, enlarged surface area, and thermo-mechanical properties.…”

Manganese nanoferrites are decorated over single‐wall carbon nanotubes using in situ co‐precipitation technique to incorporate into cellulose acetate (CA) polymer in order to prepare nanocomposite membranes for salt rejection and desalination purpose. The microstructural study reveals the pore size of the synthesized membranes from 5 nm to 0.20 μm depending upon the loading concentration of the impregnated nanocomposite tubes. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the synthesized membranes delineate the presence of decorated nanotubes in the host polymer matrix. Thermal degradation study proclaims the thermal endurance enhancement with increasing nanotubes concentration in the polymer matrix. Flux rate of the deionized (DI) water through the prepared membranes decreases with increasing nano‐filler concentration while this impact is observed inverse in salt rejection study of the aluminum sulphate (Al2(SO4)3) and zinc sulphate (ZnSO4) solutions due to the transformation of microporosity to nanoporosity with increasing composite tubes dosing into the host CA polymer.

Heavy metal contamination is a serious concern worldwide. In order to remove heavy metal ions from wastewater efficiently, multifunctinoal biomass-based material have been utilized. Herein, hyperbranched polymer modified cellulose biomass (HBP-CB) derived from textile waste materials ramie fibers was successfully developed by construction of Fe3O4/SiO2/polymer multiple structure through an etch-fill strategy. Specifically, Fe3O4 and SiO2 particles were introduced to the oxidation etching cellulose surface, and subsequently modified by hyperbranched polymer The adsorption behavior of the adsorbent toward two classes of heavy metal ions was investigated. The results indicated that HBP-CB owned excellent adsorption capacities for chromium and Cu(II) with maximum 123.5 mg/g and 149.0 mg/g and magnetic recovery performance in aqueous medium. These are owing to the oxidization etching biomass matrix with a higher BET surface area of 4.61 m2/g and the hybrid multiple structure modified by functional hyperbranched polymer with high dense adsorptive sites on the matrix. The adsorption behavior was well described by pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model, revealing a rapid surface adsorption and monolayer spontaneous chemical adsorption. For recycling, 81% of adsorption capacity could be retained after five recovery cycles. These demonstrate that the hybrid multiple structure based on biomass, nanomaterials and polymer could provide sustainable and high-performance adsorption property for wastewater treatment.
