“…Recent literature reports several studies on the effective adsorption of many organic compounds such as pesticides [153,154,271,[282][283][284][285][286][287][288][289], phenolic compounds [290][291][292][293][294][295], dyes [144,[296][297][298][299][300][301], PAHs [302,303], explosives [304] and pharmaceuticals and hormonal compounds [85,[305][306][307] by a variety of adsorbents prepared from agricultural wastes. The list of materials that have been tested in such studies is long (and still increasing).…”

“…The list of materials that have been tested in such studies is long (and still increasing). Some examples include pine bark [282,283,302,304,305], almond shells [292,307], banana peels [284,293], sawdust [153,285,300], coconut fibers [285], rice bran [271,287], rice husk [271,287], moringa pods [271], hazelnut shells [299,300], wood residues [286], cork wastes [85,153,154,289,295,303,306] and chickpea husk [288]. In addition, assays have also been conducted with some of these materials after submitting them to more or less complex treatments (usually thermal), e.g.…”

“…This adsorbent has also been studied for the removal of organic pollutants such as PAHs [4], bisphenol [5], estradiol (E2) [6] and lindane [7] from contaminated water. Chusova et al [8] showed that pine bark can effectively remove TNT from pink water, a wastewater generated during the process of demilitarization of explosives at army ammunition plants.…”

Abstract. This study demonstrates the application of FT-IR spectroscopy for investigating the remediation of pink water with the low cost adsorbent pine bark. The removal of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) from pink water by adsorption to pine bark was accompanied by a reduction in intensities of peaks at 1544 and 1347 cm -1 in the spectra of acetonitrile extracts of the pine bark. Hierarchial cluster analysis differentiated samples with high (30-180 mg/L) and low (0-4 mg/L) TNT concentrations, demonstrating the potential of this approach as a quick screening method for the control of the removal of TNT from pink water. The amount of lignin in pine bark was inversely proportional to the size of the pine bark particles, while the concentration of phenolic hydroxyl groups increases with increasing size of pine bark particles. FT-IR spectra showed that as well as TNT, pine bark can also adsorb nitramine explosives such as RDX and HMX.

“…In recent years, extensive researches are focused on the development of alternative and economic activated carbon from agricultural by-products [35][36][37][38][39] that are ubiquitous green waste in the environment and which may cause some serious environmental pollution when filling at a fixed site. However, the use of activated carbon derived from agricultural waste materials as adsorbents for the enhancement of hydrocarbon biodegradation rate in soil is very limited [28].…”

In this study, the potential effects of palm kernel oil (PKO), pineapple peels derived-activated carbon (PPAC) and NPK fertilizer (20:10:10) as amendment agents on the natural bioattenuation of 2,6-dichlorophenol (2,6-DCP) in tropical agricultural soil were investigated. The effect of PPAC dosage on 2,6-DCP biodegradation was also studied. Column reactors containing soil were spiked with 2,6-dichlorophenol (2,6-DCP) wastewater (300 mg/l) and amended with PKO, NPK fertilizer and PPAC alone or in combinations. The rates of 2,6-DCP biodegradation were studied for a remediation period of 42 days under laboratory conditions. The results showed that there was a positive relationship between the rate of 2,6-DCP biodegradation, bacterial growth rate and presence of NPK fertilizer and PPAC (alone or in combination) in soil column microcosms contaminated with 2,6-DCP. The 2,6-DCP biodegradation data fitted well to the first-order kinetic model. The model revealed that 2,6-DCP contaminated-soil microcosms amended with NPK fertilizer and PPAC (alone or in combination) had higher biodegradation rate constants (k) as well as lower half-life times (t 1/2 ) than soil column microcosms amended with PKO and unamended soil (natural attenuation) remediation system. Thus, the use of combined NPK fertilizer and activated carbon (NPK + PPAC) to enhance 2,6-DCP degradation in the soil could be one of the severally sought bioremediation strategies of remediating natural ecosystem (environment) contaminated with organic chemicals.
