“…The physicochemical characteristics of BPA are discussed in Table 1. Thus, there is an urgent need for BPA removal from wastewater; several chemical and physical methods were projected, such as chemical remediation (Garoma et al, 2010), physical absorption, microbial degradation (Godiya & Park, 2022), advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) (Sahu et al, 2021) and membrane systems (Wu et al, 2021). However, these conventional methods use high energy, costly, less efficient and not eco‐friendly (chance to produces secondary pollutants) (Mirzai et al, 2020).…”

Bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical additive in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins, is suspected to be an endocrine‐disrupter. Extensive use and irregular treating methods have led to frequent detection of BPA in wastewater, raising demand for their removal by efficient nanomaterials‐based technique. Nanocomposite CuO@NiHCF was synthesized via green method using Citrus aurantium peel extract. Crystalline structure (particle size <50 nm) of CuO@NiHCF was analysed by microscopic and spectroscopic analysis. This nanocomposite showed 97% degradation of BPA (50 mg L−1) at neutral pH in sunlight. Moreover, improved particle stability (zeta potential: −56.2 mV; 2.0 eV) and high surface area, pore volume (81 m2g−1, 13.9 nm) resulted from synergism of NiHCF (−26.3 mV; 2.4 eV), and CuO (−11.5 mV; 1.9 eV) led to efficient photodegradation of BPA. Degradation of BPA was found photo‐adsorptive. Moreover, degradation was carried out by OH radicals based with ring‐opening mechanisms by GC–MS. High efficiency and sustainability of CuO@NiHCF were revealed by its multiple reusability (n = 10), leading to a promising and sustainable photocatalyst.

“…17 Besides pharmaceuticals, bisphenol A (BPA, Figure 1b), an industrial chemical used in consumer products like food packaging, dental sealants, plastic bottles, and baby feeding bottles, 18 is another prime concern due to its severe toxicological and adverse health effects. 1,18−20 BPA has been detected in all kinds of environmental water 19,21 and BPA concentrations range from 0.1 mg/L in drinking water 22 to 17.2 mg/L in hazardous waste landfill leachates. 22 As a result, the presence of pollutants like BPA and TET in essentially all water bodies requires the development of strategies that are cheap, effective, and sustainable to provide access to safe water resources for everyone, especially the population in developing countries.…”

Efficient Removal of Tetracycline and Bisphenol A from Water with a New Hybrid Clay/TiO₂ Composite

et al. 2023

New TiO2 hybrid composites were prepared from kaolin clay, predried and carbonized biomass, and titanium tetraisopropoxide and explored for tetracycline (TET) and bisphenol A (BPA) removal from water. Overall, the removal rate is 84% for TET and 51% for BPA. The maximum adsorption capacities (q m) are 30 and 23 mg/g for TET and BPA, respectively. These capacities are far greater than those obtained for unmodified TiO2. Increasing the ionic strength of the solution does not change the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent. pH changes only slightly change BPA adsorption, while a pH > 7 significantly reduces the adsorption of TET on the material. The Brouers–Sotolongo fractal model best describes the kinetic data for both TET and BPA adsorption, predicting that the adsorption process occurs via a complex mechanism involving various forces of attraction. Temkin and Freundlich isotherms, which best fit the equilibrium adsorption data for TET and BPA, respectively, suggest that adsorption sites are heterogeneous in nature. Overall, the composite materials are much more effective for TET removal from aqueous solution than for BPA. This phenomenon is assigned to a difference in the TET/adsorbent interactions vs the BPA/adsorbent interactions: the decisive factor appears to be favorable electrostatic interactions for TET yielding a more effective TET removal.

“…These compounds act through various biological receptors (e.g., estrogen receptors, androgen receptors, thyroid hormone receptors) and have disruptive effects on the human endocrine 4 . Currently, photocatalytic, 5 biological, 6 and advanced oxidation 7 methods are widely used for BPA removal. However, it is difficult to design a photocatalytic substance that is effective and the scope of application of photocatalysis is very narrow.…”

Advanced oxidation based on persulfate applied for the removal of organic pollutants has received widespread attention. Here, combining hydrothermal synthesis and a high‐temperature calcination approach, we constructed an effective copper oxide‐modified biochar from wood waste (Ginkgo biloba rods) for the removal of bisphenol A (BPA) from contaminated waterways. The modified biochar with copper oxide in its structure (CuO/BC) exhibited a densely arranged needle‐shaped structure different from pristine timber waste biochar (BC). CuO/BC can activate persulfate efficiently, and the removal rate of BPA could reach 100% within 20–30 min, approximately three times higher than that of BC. Moreover, CuO/BC was more suitable for treating BPA wastewater under alkaline conditions. The stability of CuO/BC, reaction intermediates, and possible degradation pathway were investigated. These results demonstrate the potential of the application of CuO/BC for organic wastewater treatment and shed light on a new approach to develop wastewater treatment materials that are carbon‐based and cost‐effective.
