AB  - Reuse and/or recycling of spent adsorbents is taking a central role in modern thinking and catalyzed carbonization is the way forward. Herein we explore the carbonization of adsorbed acetamiprid, in an inert atmosphere, as a way of recycling and producing nitrogen-rich carbon material for potential use in supercapacitors. Added value material and the reuse of the adsorbent were achieved by carbonization at 700 °C under argon. The formation of a nitrogen-doped carbon layer as an active material on the adsorbent, bonded through a C-Si linkage, has been conclusively verified through elemental composition quantification using XPS and EDX measurements. Two-stage catalytic decomposition and condensation of the adsorbed pesticide is followed by TGA and TPD-MS. Attained carbon-based materials give stable Faradaic capacitance with a slight dependency on the number of adsorbing cycles. Capacitance calculated with respect to the adlayer carbon material reaches values as high as 610 F g−1. Galvanostatic Charge/Discharge measurement confirmed the stability of explored materials with a slight increase in capacitance over 1000 cycles. The presented results envisage electroactive materials preparation from environmental pollutants, adding value to spent adsorbents.

AB  - Herein we unequivocally identify the mechanism of zeolite-catalysed thermal degradation of pesticide, employing Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman and mass spectrometry following temperature decomposition (TPDe/MS). We demonstrate that Y zeolite can effectively adsorb a significant amount of acetamiprid both in a single trial (168 mg/g) and in 10 cycles (1249 mg/g) with intermittent thermal regeneration at 300 °C. Sectional vibrational analysis of acetamiprid two-stage thermal degradation is performed for pristine and supported pesticide. The acetamiprid Raman spectral changes appear at 200 °C, while partial carbonization occurs at 250 °C. The gradual disappearance of the FTIR bands of acetamiprid is seen up to 270 °C when two Raman signature bands for carbonised material emerged. The TPDe/MS profiles reveal the evolution of mass fragments - in the first step, cleavage of the C[sbnd]C bond occurs between the aromatic core of the molecule and its tail-end, followed by cleavage of the C[sbnd]N bond. The mechanism of adsorbed acetamiprid degradation follows the same step, at significantly lower temperatures, as the process is catalysed by the interaction of acetamiprid nitrogens and zeolite support. Reduced temperature degradation allows for a quick recovery process that leaves 65% efficacy after 10 cycles. After numerous cycles of recovery, a subsequent one-time heat treatment at 700 °C completely restores initial efficacy. The efficient adsorption, novel details on degradation mechanism and ease of regeneration procedure place the Y zeolite at the forefront of future all-encompassing environmental solutions.

AB  - Ecotoxicity caused by neonicotinoid pesticides is largely due to oxidative stress on non-target species. Due to the fact that reactive radical species reach the environment, materials intended for pesticide removal should be applicable for the simultaneous removal of reactive radicals, as well. This work uses the spectroscopic, adsorptive and antioxidant responses from MFI, FAU and BEA zeolites as descriptors of their potential environmental importance. Different network structures and Si/Al ratios were correlated with excellent zeolite adsorption properties, as over 200 mg g1 of investigated neonicotinoids, acetamiprid and imidacloprid, was achieved in one cycle. Additionally, after two regeneration steps, over 450 mg g1 adsorbed pesticides were retained, in three adsorption cycles. Overall the best results were detected for the FAU zeotype in both tested applications, insecticide adsorption and radical-scavenging performance, with and without insecticides present. The proposed mechanism for adsorption relies on kinetic investigation, isotherm modelling and spectroscopic post-adsorption analysis and targets zeolite hydroxyl/siloxane groups as active sites for insecticide adsorption via hydrogen bonding. Neat, welldefined zeolite structures enable their prospective application in ecotoxic species removal.

AB  - Unmodified natural silicates (bentonite, kaolin, clinoptilolite and diatomites) were tested as adsorbents for the organic pollutants in water tables using Methylene Blue (MB) as the model adsorbate. Among the selected materials, bentonite adsorbed as much as 237 mg/g, confirming its excellent suitability for pollutant removal. Spectral evidence confirmed successful MB immobilization at the bentonite surface. Furthermore, the thermal treatment of MB-saturated adsorbent in an inert atmosphere at 700 °C produced a carbon/silicate composite. EDX confirmed the formation of the nitrogen-doped carbon overlay on the silica scaffold and the obtained composite material was probed as an electrode material for oxygen reduction in an alkaline solution. Reduction proceeded via a two-electron mechanism with the main product being HO2−, a known nucleophile, which was subsequently used to degrade/demethylate MB. The composite showed a considerable 70% MB removal rate after an hour of electrochemical treatment. The synergy between the processes of adsorption of MB and the surface-generated HO2− dictates the efficiency of the method and points to a possible route for spent adsorbent reuse in the form of a durable product for environmental protection.
