A complex Remazol dye effluent, comprised of four reactive dyes and auxiliary chemicals, was decolorized using SPS-200 (sawdust-based) and SPC-100 (coal-based) activated carbons. A detailed characterization revealed that the pore diameter of the activated carbon played an important role in dye adsorption. The solution pH had no significant effect on the adsorption capacity in the pH range of 2-10.7. According to the Langmuir model, the maximum uptakes of SPS-200 were 415.4, 510.3, 368.5 and 453.0 mg g(-1) for Reactive Black 5 (RB5), Reactive Orange 16 (RO16), Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) and Remazol Brilliant Violet 5R (RBV), respectively. Conversely, those of SPC-100 were slightly lower, at 150.8, 197.4, 178.3 and 201.1 mg g(-1) for RB5, RO16, RBBR and RBV, respectively. In the case of Remazol effluent, SPS-200 exhibited a decolorization efficiency of 100% under unadjusted pH conditions at 10.7, compared to that of 52% for SPC-100.

A new type of biosorbent was developed for binding anionic precious metals through cross-linking waste biomass Corynebacterium glutamicum with polyethylenimine (PEI). This biomass was evaluated for the removal and recovery of palladium and compared to commercial adsorbents, such as Amberjet 4200 Cl, Lewatit Monoplus TP 214, SPC-100, and SPS-200. The kinetic experiments revealed that the sorption equilibrium was reached with 30 min for the PEI-modified biomass. The maximum uptake of the biosorbent was 176.8 mg/g, which was calculated using the Langmuir model. The Pd(II) maximum uptake exhibited the following order: Amberjet 4200 Cl>Lewatit Monoplus TP 214>PEI-modified biomass>SPC-100>SPS-200. Acidified thiourea in 1.0M HCl was used to desorb Pd(II) from all of the sorbents examined.

Cystine-based gemini surfactants with dodecyl, tetradecyl, hexadecyl, and octadecyl hydrocarbon chains were synthesized, and their interactions with unsaturated (soy phosphatidylcholine, SPC)/saturated (hydrogenated SPC, HSPC) soy phosphatidylcholines in the forms of a monolayer and a model liposome were estimated for different combinations of the components in the mixed systems. Studies of Langmuir monolayers at the air-aqueous buffer interface revealed condensation of the monomolecular films with the addition of surfactants. The effect of surfactants decreased according to the following order: octadecyl > hexadecyl > tetradecyl > dodecyl homologs. The nonideal mixing between the components was estimated using the deviation of the experimental molecular area from the ideal area per molecule. The excess molecular area increased with the increase in the surfactant chain length and phospholipid saturation. The 50 mol % mixture of cystine derivatives and phospholipids formed thermodynamically stable monolayers. The surfactants increased the rigidity of SPC monolayers and decreased that of HSPC monolayers, as observed by the studies of surface dialational rheology. The film structure at the air-water interface could differentiate the SPC- and HSPC-comprising systems through the formation of organized regions, especially at a higher surface pressure. The constriction of surfactant/phospholipid hybrid vesicles was observed with an increase in the length of surfactant hydrocarbon chains. The negative zeta potential of vesicles took the highest values and did not change with time for 20 and 50 mol % surfactant. The spherical shape of the vesicles was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed an increase in fluidity of HSPC bilayers and rigidity of SPS bilayers under the influence of surfactants. These effects were confirmed by fluorescence spectroscopy. All of the vesicle formulations were found to be nontoxic from the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide assay, suggesting their potential as a novel membranous system for the delivery of drugs, genetic materials, vaccines, and other therapeutic agents.
