This paper presents the adsorption of dyes – the anionic Reactive Black 5 (RB5) and cationic Basic Violet 10 (BV10) dyes – on activated carbon (AC) immobilised on chitosan (CHs). The results were compared with the removal efficiency of RB5 and BV10 on the individual sorbents: chitosan beads and activated carbon. In this study, the sorption capacities of the sorbents, sorption pH and the point of zero charge (pHZPC) were determined. For the description of the obtained results, the Freundlich, Langmuir and double Langmuir models were used. The results show that the developed sorbent (CHs-AC) is effective for both types of dye (RB5 or BV10) over a broad pH range 4–10, which makes it a universal sorbent. The maximum sorption capacity of CHs-AC with RB5 was 639.8 mg/g, while for BV10 it was 50.7 mg/g.

Extracellular laccase produced by the wood-rotting fungus Cerrena unicolor was immobilised covalently on the mesostructured siliceous foam (MCF) and three hexagonally ordered mesoporous silicas (SBA-15) with different pore sizes. The enzyme was attached covalently via glutaraldehyde (GLA) or by simple adsorption and additionally crosslinked with GLA. The experiments indicated that laccase bound by covalent attachment remains very active and stable. The best biocatalysts were MCF and SBA-15 with Si-F moieties on their surface. Thermal inactivation of immobilised and native laccase at 80°C showed a biphasic-type activity decay, that could be modelled with 3- parameter isoenzyme model. It appeared that immobilisation did not significantly change the mechanism of activity loss but stabilised a fraction of a stable isoform. Examination of time needed for 90% initial activity loss revealed that immobilisation prolonged that time from 8 min (native enzyme) up to 155 min (SBA-15SF).

An imidazolate-bridged copper(II)-zinc(II) complex (Cu(II)-diethylenetriamino-μ-imidazolato-Zn(II)-tris(2-aminoethyl)amine perchlorate (denoted as “Cu,Zn complex”) and a simple copper(II) complex (Cu(II)-tris(2-aminoethyl) amine chloride (“Cu-tren”) were prepared and immobilised on silica gel (by hydrogen or covalent bonds) and montmorillonite (by ion exchange). The immobilised substances were characterised by FT-IR spectroscopy and their thermal characteristics were also studied. The obtained materials were tested in two probe reactions: catalytic oxidation of 3,5-di-tert-butyl catechol (DTBC) (catecholase activity) and the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (catalase activity). It was found that the catecholase activity of the Cu,Zn complex increased considerably upon immobilization on silica gel via hydrogen bonds and intercalation by ion exchange among the layers of montmorillonite. The imidazolate-bridged copper(II)-zinc(II) complex and its immobilised versions were inactive in hydrogen peroxide decomposition. The Cu(II)-tris(2-aminoethyl)amine chloride complex displayed good catalase activity; however, immobilisation could not improve it.

The results of the laboratory pot experiments on soil mercury (Hg) immobilisation with a non-toxic and price-reasonable agent - colloidal sulphur (S) water suspension, are presented. It was shown that fertilisation with small agrochemical doses of colloidal S reduces excess Hg effectively as follows: in interstitial waters by a factor 2 – 12 times for total Hg, and 22– 680 times for “reactive” Hg; in stems and leaves of oats – 7 – 22 times; and in moss bags, reflecting soil Hg degassing, 7 – 15 times, for the most heavily Hg-spiked soils. The results obtained allowed to conclude that the immobilization of Hg occurs through Hg binding to the newly formed S-bearing functional groups in humic acids and/or sulphides. [...]

The sorption capacity of glauconite, glauconite immobilised on chitosan hydrogel beads and unmodified chitosan hydrogel beads against Reactive Black 5 and Basic Violet 10 was compared in this article. The effect of pH on the sorption effectiveness of dyes on the tested sorbents was investigated and the sorption capacity of sorbents after 24 and 72 h was determined. Langmuir sorption, double Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were used to describe the experimental data. The adsorption efficiency of the dyes on sorbents containing chitosan was highest at pH 4. In the case of glauconite, Reactive Black 5 removal efficiency was the highest at pH 3, and Basic Violet 10 removal efficiency was highest at pH 2. The sorption capacity of glauconite immobilised on chitosan hydrogel spheres obtained after 72 h was -656.73 mg/g and -32.77 mg/g for Reactive Black 5 and Basic Violet 10, respectively.

In this article, the sorption properties of chitosan hydrogel beads, beech sawdust and sawdust immobilised on chitosan in relation to Reactive Black 5 (RB5) and Basic Violet 10 (BV10) dyes were compared. In the conducted research, the sorption capacities of the sorbents, sorption pH and the point of zero charge (pHZPC) were determined. For the description of the obtained results, the double Langmuir model has been used. The highest effectiveness of the cationic and anionic dye removal on chitosan hydrogel beads and sawdust immobilised on chitosan was obtained at pH 4, whereas on sawdust, the pH was 3. The best sorbent in relation to the RB5 dye was obtained using chitosan hydrogel beads, and in relation to BV10, it was sawdust. The maximum sorption capacity of chitosan in relation to RB5 was 875.66 mg/g, whereas the sorption capacity of sawdust in relation to BV10 was 30.15 mg/g. The research has shown that the sorbent in the form of sawdust immobilised on chitosan had a high sorption capacity in relation to anionic as well as cationic dyes. Immobilisation of sawdust on chitosan led to the creation of a universal sorbent in relation to cationic and anionic dyes.
