Due to low metabolism, poor absorption, overuse, and misuse, TCy is considered as threat to environmental and its removal from waste-water is vital. In this research, a novel ionic liquid modiଁed magnetic activated carbon nanocomposite (IL@mAC) was synthesized, characterized, and the adsorption efficiency of IL@mAC for removal of TCy was investigated under different operational parameters of pH (3-11); dose of IL@mAC (0.01-0.1 g/50 mL); reaction time (30-240 min), and initial TCy concentration (50-1500 mg/L). The IL@mAC characterization was done using XRD, VSM, SEM-EDX, BET, and FTIR. Results of equilibrium experiment showed that the highest removal efficiency (~98%) was obtained using 0.06 g of IL@mAC in 135 min at pH 7 and temperature 303 K. Considering the correlation coefficients (R 2 ) for different adsorption models, it can be deduced that adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC is better followed by Langmuir (0.9985) in comparison to Freundlich (0.9322), and Temkin (0.9654) models. Furthermore, Langmuir adsorption capacity was observed to be 895.0 mg/g. The regeneration study showed that IL@mAC retained around 85% TCy adsorption efficiency after 6th cycle. Finally, the present study indicates that the IL@mAC is of a high applicability and has extremely high adsorbent capacity to remove TCy from water compared to most of other benchmark adsorbents reported in literature.

Introduction Antibiotics, which are a group of potent medicines have been widely used to cure infectious human and animal diseases [1]. However, the same compounds have also been considered as new environmental pollutants categorized under the PPCPs (pharmaceuticals and personal care products) class [2]. Veterinary antibiotics (like tetracycline (TCy)) have been widely administrated for combating bacterial infection in humans as well as for improvement of animals’ feed and growth efficiency [3]. Improper and extensive use of antibiotics leads to their intensive discharge into waste-water treatment facilities (WWTFs), which is due to their incomplete absorbance or metabolism in livestock or human bodies [4]. From another viewpoint, conventional waste-water treatment units are not sufficiently able to degrade these products, which in turn, results in their constant discharge into the environment via different routes including wastewater sludge, effluents, as well as agricultural runoffs [5]. Consequently, the frequent occurrence of pharmaceutical contaminants has turned to a new severe challenge because of the adverse impacts they impose on both ecosystems as well as human health [5]. TCy is an antibacterial agent ranked as the secondly worldwide used antibiotic in aquaculture, human therapy, and veterinary medicines [5]. Nevertheless, due to low metabolism, poor absorption, overuse, and misuse, nearly most of the administered TCy (80-90%) penetrates into aquatic ecosystems [6]. Therefore, TCy is considered among the most occuring antibiotics in water bodies via water discharged from urban wastewater treatment plants or agricultural effluents [6]. The potential environmental risks pertaining to TCy are mainly contributed to their broad-spectrum antimicrobial features [7]. As the occurrence of antibiotics may lead to changes in microbial diversity and metabolism, the presence of TCy is supposed to be of adverse impacts on environment as well as human health [8]. The catastrophic outcomes, including dispersion of the genes resistant to antibiotics (that may no longer to be treated with current drugs), because of ineffectiveness of traditional treatment systems, have resulted in the need for more studies on cost-effective and efficient processes for TCy-containing waste-water treatment [9]. Various techniques have been established for remediation of antibiotics-containing solutions, such as catalytic degradation, chemical oxidation, and membrane filtration etc. [10], however various drawbacks are associated with these techniques such as toxic byproducts, sludge formation, expensive, and controversial affects when used at real scale [11]. Because of no harmful byproducts and lower costs among the various technologies investigated for removing persistent and/or resistant compounds from aqueous solutions, the most promising technology seems to be adsorption [12, 13]. Carbon-based materials are still regarded as the most attractive option amongst the most widely used adsorbents, and among them, a few studies have been conducted on TCy elimination [14]. Activated carbon (AC) offers an attractive and inexpensive medium for removing inorganic and organic pollutants from aqueous solutions [15]. Given its porous structure and higher surface area, AC can adsorb compounds and gases (e.g. phenols, chlorophenols, and pesticides) [16] in an efficient manner [17]. Also, AC can be easily utilized and functionalized as efficient adsorbent for contaminants [18]. Nevertheless, the small particle size makes them hard to be removed from aqueous solutions [19]. To enhance the separation properties of powder AC, various methods have been originated and most effective is magnetic separation creating magnetic properties in AC [20]. Magnetic AC (mAC) with superparamagnetic particles can be recovered by applying an external magnetic field very swiftly and can be reused without losing the active sites [21]. Ionic liquids (ILs) have been categorized among organic salts made up of organic or inorganic anions and organic cations. ILs have numerous unique physicochemical characteristics, including lower toxicity, satisfying stability, tunable miscibility, and insignificant vapor pressure. Therefore, ILs are considered as favorable “green” materials used for various analytical applications [22] and have become an extremely popular item in separation and purification research. Especially, the magnetic materials functionalized with ILs have become more popular recently. Even though, ILs could not retain their liquid state while being modified on the materials surfaces, the other distinctive characteristics including low volatility and polarity have remained as a challenge. Also, the performance of the resulting materials can be improved by introducing the IL moieties leading to a wide range of applications [23]. Thus, to integrate the above-mentioned merits, a novel type of material was developed by modifying the surface of mAC with IL called as ionic liquid modified magnetic activated carbon nanocomposite (IL@mAC) and used for the removal of TCy from water. This research was aimed to examine the effect of IL@mAC nanocomposite on removing TCy from aqueous environments through the following consecutive phases; (i) IL@mAC nanocomposite was prepared and characterized , (ii) the as-prepared IL@mAC was used for removing TCy under various circumstances of initial TCy concentration (mg/L), pH, IL@mAC dose (mg/L), and time (min), (iii) adsorption isotherms were determined to facilitate the results generalization for real-scale applications. Further response surface methodology (RSM) was also applied to observe the correlation of adsorption factors as function of TCy removal. At last regeneration ability of IL@mAC to remove TCy was also investigated. It is noteworthy that to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of synthesis and application of a new nanocomposite (IL@mAC) in TCy removal from water. 2. Materials And Methods 2.1. Chemicals For the preparation of mAC, the analytical grade AC powder was purchased from Merck Company (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). Ferric chloride hexahydrate (FeCl 3 .6H 2 O), 1-vinyl-3-butylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (IL), acetonitrile (ACN), azobisisobutyronitrile, ethanol (EtOH), and TCy were also supplied by Merck Company (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). 2.2. Synthesis of IL@mAC 2.2.1. Preparation of mAC For the preparation mAC, the AC powder was dissolved in FeCl 3 ⋅6H 2 O (10% w/v) alcoholic solution and kept for 24 hours to complete enough magnetization. After that, the prepared mAC was set apart to dry in open air at 25 . Then, the mAC was charred and ignited in an assembly consisting of a wire gauze with an electric heater having an exhaust outlet for gases and an inlet for nitrogen [24]. 2.2.2. Synthesis of IL@mAC The IL, 1-vinyl-3-butylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate was utilized to modify mAC. The mAC mixed with IL and ACN at different weight ratios of mAC/IL/ACN 10/1/20, 10/2/20, and 10/3/20. The mixture was refluxed at 303 K for 50 minutes and then, the temperature was elevated to 355 K to evaporate ACN. Next, 0.5 g of the as prepared specimen was blended with 0.5 g azobisisobutyronitrile per 30 mL EtOH solution and agitated at 120 rpm giving 333 K temperature. Then, the resulting sample (IL@mAC) filtered, washed with EtOH for 3 times, labeled, and kept for further usage [25]. 2.3. Characterization of IL@mAC X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of IL@mAC was taken in the range of 2θ values from 5-80° using XRD (Philips PW-1840 diffractometer, Amsterdam, Netherland) with Cu-Ka radiation (λ = 1.54178 Aᵒ). The magnetic properties of IL@mAC were investigated using vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) (MDKFD instrument, Iran). The prepared IL@mAC was characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) (Mira 3-XMU apparatus proficient of 700000 x magnifications) for surface morphology determination. The elemental composition analysis of IL@mAC was observed using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). In addition, Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) was performed with a Vertex 70 FTIR spectrometer (Broker, Massachusetts, USA). The N 2 -adsorption/desorption isotherm was obtained to examine the textural characteristics of IL@mAC using a Belsorp-mini II (MicrotracBEL Corp, Japan). Before N 2 -adsorption/desorption isotherm measurement, the IL@mAC sample was degassed under 10-3 mm-Hg at 100°C. The specific surface area of IL@mAC was calculated using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and pore diameter was determined by Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH) method. The zero-point charge (ZPC)/isoelectric point of IL@mAC was estimated using 0.01 M NaCl solutions for initial pH (pH i ) ranging from 2 to 9. The pH i was adjusted using 1 N aqueous solution of HCl and NaOH. A fixed amount (0.02 g) of IL@mAC was introduced to each pH-adjusted solution followed by stirring for 48 hours. Next, the supernatant was decanted and for each solution, final pH (pH f ) was noted. 2.4. Adsorption experiments Adsorption of TCy from waste-water was measured in batch experiments. The effect of pH (3-11), reaction time (30-240 min), TCy initial concentration (50-1500 mg/L), and IL@mAC dose (0.01-0.1 g/50 mL) was deliberated according to the experimental framework defined by central composite design (CCD) methodology (Tables S1 and 1). All the experiments were performed at 303 K temperature. The working TCy solutions with desired concentrations were prepared by diluting the stock TCy solution and the solutions pHs were adjusted using 0.1 M HCl or NaOH. After adding a known amounts of IL@mAC into 50 mL of the working TCy solutions, the aluminum foil-sealed flasks were stirred for a desired time interval. Then, the IL@mAC was separated using 0.22 µm syringe filter, and TCy concentration was measured by UV spectrophotometer at the predetermined maximum wavelength. To evaluate the removal efficiency (% R TCy ) and adsorption capacity of TCy, equations 1 and 2 were used. Where, % R TCy , C eq , C o q eq , V and m are the removal efficiency of IL@mAC for TCy, final TCy concentration (mg/L), initial concentrations of TCy (mg/L), equilibrium adsorption capacity of IL@mAC for TCy (mg/g), volume (L), and amount of IL@mAC (g) respectively. Adsorption isotherm studies were conducted at the optimized conditions using TCy solution with primary concentrations of 50-1500 mg/L. Various isotherm equations like Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin were analyzed to fit the experimental data. 2.5. Design and statistical analysis Design of experiments and data analyses were conducted by applying CCD approach. The influence of main effective parameters, i.e. amount of IL@mAC (A), pH (B), TCy concentration (C), and contact time (D) -(each at five levels)- was investigated (Table S1). Accordingly, 30 experiments were defined to be carried out. Table 1 shows the randomized conditions of the relationship between the variables in different scenarios and the method of performing the experiments. After performing the experiments according to the design, the R TCy of TCy by IL@mAC in each step was calculated. All CCD-based calculations were performed using Minitab 16 software. The relationship between independent and dependent variables was described using the second-order polynomial equation represents as: Y = α 0 + α 1 A + α 2 B + α 3 C + α 4 D + α 11 A 2 + α 22 B 2 + α 33 C 2 + α 44 D 2 + α 12 AB + α 13 AC + α 14 AD + α 23 BC + α 24 BD + α 34 CD 3 Where α 0 represents the constant factor, α 1 , α 2 , α 3 , and α 4 stand for the correlation coefficient demonstrating the linear factors, α 11 , α 22 , α 33 , and α 44 are the correlation coefficients expressing the second-order factors, α 34 , α 24 , α 23 , α 14 , α 13 , and α 12 stand for the correlation coefficients of interactive factors. To determine the accuracy, significance, and precision of the given model, the analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted. Given R 2 , R 2 adj , lack of fit (LOF) statistics and Prob>F, the statistical significance of the developed model was determined. Besides the criteria mentioned for estimating the accuracy of model, the difference between experimental and predicted responses (residuals) was determined as well. 2.6. TCy desorption study The recyclability and reusability of as-prepared IL@mAC was carried out, which is a crucial characteristic deciding the economic applicability of an adsorbent in real-scales based on its reuse and desorption capability [26]. For this experiment, a 50 mL solution of 20 mg/L TCy was oscillated at 200 rpm after adding 0.015 g of IL@mAC for 12 h. The C eq of TCy was measured in the supernatant and removal efficiency was determined. After first cycle, IL@mAC was magnetically separated, and further remaining TCy was desorbed using 0.1 N NaOH from exhausted IL@mAC [27]. Next, IL@mAC was washed with water, dried and the recovered-dried IL@mAC was utilized again to perform TCy removal applying similar conditions. A total of six cycles were conducted adopting the same procedure. 3. Results And Discussion 3.1 Characterization of IL@mAC To evaluate the purity and crystalline nature of IL@mAC, XRD spectrum of IL@mAC was taken (Fig. 1a) and compared with the reference XRD spectrum (Card No. 926-91) from the Joint Powder Diffraction Standards Committee (JCPDS). The XRD pattern of the synthesized IL@mAC is in good agreement with the standard Fe 3 O 4 , indicating that the magnetic core is stable during functionalization. The magnetic properties of IL@mAC were calculated using a VSM hysteresis loop as shown in Fig. 1b. These magnetic properties of IL@mAC, comprising saturation magnetization (MS; illustrates the material magnetization carried at a higher applied value of an external magnetic field H), remnant magnetization (Mr; this determines the residual magnetization after removing external magnetic field), and coercivity (Hc; this calculates the reverse field, which is required for magnetization to reach zero after saturation) are estimated to be 35.3 emu/g, 0.38 emu/g, and 20.71 G, respectively. Hence, the low Hc value of IL@mAC validates that the prepared material contains super-magnetic properties. The SEM micrographs of IL@mAC are shown in Fig. 2a, b. The morphology of IL@mAC shows a rough and porous surface. This perforated nature of the developed sample let more opportunity to adsorb pollutants from an aqueous media. Moreover, Fig. 2 also confirms that the surface layer of mAC has been covered by IL, which in turn, makes the surface smoother. The EDX analysis of the IL@mAC is shown in Fig. 2c, which was performed before TCy adsorption. In Fig 2c, results show the elemental composition of prepared IL@mAC, eventually confirming the composition (C, O, Ca, Fe). The EDX results strongly revealed that IL@mAC formation using complete precursors with no impurity in the sample. The N 2 -adsorption/desorption isotherm of IL@mAC was evaluated at 77 K to identify the pore structure and surface area and shown in Fig. 3b. Before measurement, the water humidity was removed by heating under vacuum at 423 K. The isotherm of IL@mAC obeys type I. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area (SA BET ; m 2 .g −1 ), pore sizes (D; nm), and pore volume (V total ; cm 3 .g −1 ) of IL@mAC are found to be 220.39 m 2 .g −1 , 8.36 nm, and 14.097 cm 3 ·g −1 respectively. Therefore, the large surface area and large V total are two of the factors involved in adsorption efficiency that confirm the high and efficient adsorption removal ability of IL@mAC for TCy. It can be assumed that the modification of mAC with IL is responsible for increased surface area and decrease pore size of IL@mAC, which enhances the adsorption capability of AC resulting in efficient adsorption of TCy. Other factors responsible for high and efficient adsorption capacity of IL@mAC are discussed in section 3.4. To prove that the IL was bonded to the mAC, the FTIR spectrum of as-synthesized IL@mAC was taken as shown in Fig 3a. The peak at 3527 cm -1 is related to the -OH group. The characteristic peak of Fe-O bond is observed at 580 cm -1 . Frequencies ranging from 2600 cm −1 to 3000 cm −1 are assigned to the C–H symmetric and asymmetric stretching vibrations and at 2683 cm -1 the peak can be associated to the C≡N stretching vibration. The peak at 1640 cm −1 is assigned to the vibration of heteroaromatic C-H bond and the C-N vibration is appeared at 1570 cm -1 . The peak of the FTIR spectrum at 1689 cm -1 indicates that it is associated to the amide group’s tensile band. So, this peak proves that the IL adheres to the surface of the mAC covalently by forming an amide bond. The ZPC describes the pH whereupon the adsorbent surface bears no charge due to the absence of adsorption, negatively (-) charged at pH> pH ZPC and positively (+) charged at pH<pH ZPC . The pH ZPC value for IL@mAC is approximated by plotting pH difference (ΔpH = pH i - pH f ) as a function of pH i whereas the ZPC (isoelectric point) experimental value for IL@mAC is estimated around 6.3 (Fig. S1). So, it may be assumed that IL@mAC holds positive (+) surface charge below pH 6.3 whereas negative (-) above pH 6.3. 3.2. Model fitting and s tatistical analysis According to equation (3), the final equation as coded factors is presented as follow by equation (4): TCy removal (%) = 77.14 + 6.36 A - 3.42 B - 8.97 C + 2.87 D + 0.27 AB + 0.56 AC - 1.49 AD + 1.58 BC + 1.91 BD - 0.82 CD + 1.98 A2 - 4.26 B2 + 0.37 C2 - 0.35 D2 4 As can be seen from the above-developed equation, the effect of IL@mAC dose, pH, TCy concentration, and contact time, are significant, of which two second parameters have negative effect on TCy removal. In case of large F-values and small p-values, the parameter effectiveness can be high [28]. The response of the TCy removal procedure by IL@mAC depends significantly on the entire studied parameters, including IL@mAC dose, pH, TCy concentration, and contact time. Therefore, the suggested model can present a good estimation of the experimental results. Also, the insignificant LOF demonstrated the validity of the quadratic model for the current study [29]. According to the results (Table 2), the 2 nd order model with F (F model = 9.13) and prob>F (0.0001) was significant. The significant model terms in this scenario are A, B, C, D, and B 2 (given the p<0.05). Whereas the higher p-values for AB , AC, AD, BC, BD, CD, A 2 , C 2 and D 2 are 0.8616, 0.7079, 0.3342, 0.3509, 0.2538, 0.5994, 0.1019, 0.7378, and 0.7506, respectively suggesting the insignificant interaction terms (given the p>0.05). Table S2 presents the ANOVA for response. In order to decide the polynomial model quality, adjusted R-Squared (R 2 adj ) and R 2 have been implemented i.e., 0.797 and 0.895, respectively. The model capability to characterize the changes in the response is increased, if R 2 is closer to 1. In fact, it ensures the fitness of 2 nd order model for experimental data. Consequently, one can reliably use the presented model for the response optimization [30]. The predicted R-Squared (R 2 pred ) of 0.4297 is reasonably consistent with the R 2 adj of 0.797. Also, “Adeq. Precision" with desirable ratios higher than 4 is used to determine signal to noise ratio . The ratio of 11.338 suggests an adequate signal, showing that the design space can be navigated by the model. The normality of the distribution of residues was verified using the normality plot. Fig. 4 shows a chart of nominal (expected) values relative to residual values obtained by applying the tested form of the RSM model. A straight line has been formed by the points on the residuals normal diagram, approving the normal distribution of the residuals [31]. Using CV (coefficient of variations) in Table S2, the results of model reproducibility are described. Given that CV<10% represents the model reproducibility and this model has replicable results (CV value = 0.42%,). 3.3 Impact of interaction variables The Fig. 5 (a,b,c) shows, as the initial pH is increased from 3 to 7, the adsorptive removal of TCy is also increased. The solution pH affects the nature of the IL@mAC and TCy. In case the pH is increased from 5 to 7, the % R TCy of IL@mAC towards the TCy is increased gradually. For the pH value higher than 7, the % R TCy is decreased rapidly. According to the results, the neutral environment is more favorable for the TCy enrichment on IL@mAC and TCy adsorption onto magnetite showed similar behavior [32]. It is primarily because, the pH of solution affects the surface charge of the IL@mAC and the TCy forms in the solution [33]. The value of pH affects the ionization degree of the TCy molecules. Three chemically distinct acidic functional groups are found in TCy: dimethylamine cation (pKa = 9.69), carboxymethyl (pKa = 3.30), and phenolic diketone (pKa = 7.68) [34]. Therefore, for solution pH<3.30, the dominant form of TCy in the solution is the H 4 TCy + ions. In case the pH is within the 3.30–7.68 range, TCy can be considered as a negatively charged hydroxyl group and a mixture of a dimethylamino group, where the dominant form is H 3 TCy. In case the pH is within the 7.68–9.69 range, the dominant form of TCy is the H 2 TCy − ions. In case the solution pH>9.69, the dominant form of TCy is HTCy 2 − . Given that the ZPC of IL@mAC is found to be 6.3, the surface charge of IL@mAC is positive below pH 6.3 and negative above pH 6.3. Although both TCy and IL@mAC are of positive charge at pH below 6.3, whilst the maximum removal is observed, which indicates involvement of hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction along with electrostatic interactions between the surface of IL@mAC and TCy molecule [35]. Similar results were reported by Figueroa et al. [36] and Rakshit et al. [37] as well. When the pH is raised from 3 to 5, amphoteric TCy ions, H 3 TCy, and other TCy forms found in the solution were primarily seized by IL@mAC via hydrogen, ligand exchange, and electrostatic reactions or slightly positive or negative charge of IL@mAC surface minimized the electrostatic/repulsive attraction with H 3 TCy [35, 38]. In case of pH>9, the electrostatic repulsion is formed between the negatively charged IL@mAC and the negatively charged HTCy 2− , leading to the rapid reduction of TCy adsorptive removal onto IL@mAC. At pHs less than 5 and above 7, the tendency of the adsorbent and adsorbate is reduced due to the neutral surface charge of one of them relative to each other, which reduces the removal efficiency [39, 40]. The obtained results are also consistent with the results obtained by Guyer et al. [41]. A major effective factor for increasing the adsorption efficiency is the IL@mAC dose, because as the nanoparticle dose is increased, the surface area possessed by adsorbate for the exchange adsorption is increased [40]. Evidently, as the IL@mAC dose is increased from 0.06 to 0.09 g/50 mL at pH=7, the efficiency of TCy removal is increased ranging from 75.44% to 82.52%. In addition, Fig. 5a shows that the highest efficiency of TCy removal (>82%) is observed at IL@mAC dose of 0.06 g/50 mL. The contact time is another factor effective in the adsorption procedure. Fig. 5 (c,e,f) shows the effect of interaction of contact time with pH, TCy concentration and IL@mAC dose. Figure 5c suggests that at the neutral pH, when the contact time is prolonged to 135 min, the removal efficiency is increased from 66.9% to 77.2%. For TCy adsorption procedure, TCy transference from the solution phase takes place into the IL@mAC pores and around the adsorption site. At times higher than 135 min, the adsorption efficiency remains constant and does not change, probably due to the completion of the adsorption capacity of the IL@mAC. According to Fig. 5f, the interaction study between contact time and various TCy concentrations indicate that when the initial concentration of TCy is increased, the adsorption efficiency is decreased. Therefore, the higher rate of adsorption at the beginning of the adsorption procedure can be attributed to the superficial vacant sites of the IL@mAC that absorb TCy quickly and achieving the equilibrium. As the time passes after beginning of the procedure, the active adsorption sites are decreased and the TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC is declined. As a result, the external surfaces become nearly saturated, and the adsorption is continued as an internal and deep process, retarding the adsorption procedure, by which the efficiency of adsorption is maintained nearly constant [32]. The initial TCy concentration represents a major driving force present for hindering mass transfer from TCy between the solid and aqueous phases [33]. As a result, as the initial concentration of TCy is increased, the removal efficiency declines. At higher doses, the higher TCy concentration leads to higher probability of severe collisions between the IL@mAC surface and TCy molecules (Fig. 5). According to Fig. 5 (b,d,f) the maximum removal efficiency of 88.75% is obtained at pH 7, 0.06 g/50 mL dosage of IL@mAC, temperature 303 K and TCy concentration of 775 mg/L. Further it can be observed that removal efficiency of TCy is increased as the pH increased till 7 and decreased as concentration of TCy increased. The removal efficiency of 83.7% is observed at pH 7, 0.06 g/50 mL IL@mAC dose and 412 mg/L TCy concentration and when the similar conditions are used for 1137.5 mg/L TCy, a decreased (70%) removal efficiency is observed. Form Fig. 5, it can be observed that the optimum conditions are found to be pH 7, IL@mAC dose 0.06 g/50 mL, time 135 min where maximum removal (~88%) efficiency is achieved. 3.4. Mechanism of TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC The TCy functional groups can undergo many electronic coupling interactions such as π-π EDA (electron donor acceptor), hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions. Almost no TCy molecule carries net electrical charge within the 3-8 pH range, which results in hardly producing electrostatic attraction with IL@mAC. A low TCy sorption at the elevated pH values (i.e. pH>~9) was observed, and at pH values lower than ~9, the sorption was higher because of the EDA interactions occurred between bulk π systems on IL@mAC surface and TCy molecules contained both double bonds and benzene rings, or hydrogen bonds have a major role in the potential adsorption mechanism [42]. At pH >~9, the adsorption efficiency will decline because of the similar charges present between TCy and IL@mAC, indicating that the electrostatic interaction is the driving force of the adsorption. Moreover, It has also been reported that pore/size-selective adsorption is considered as a one of the major factors for TCy adsorption, where TCy is easily entered into the pores of IL@mAC because of their small molecular size (TCy: 0.403 nm 3 ) [43]. Furthermore, π-π and hydrogen bonding interaction between TCy and the IL in the mAC are also involved for TCy adsorption [34]. Besides, hydroxyl, amine, phenol, and enone moieties of TCy may develop hydrogen bonds with hydroxyl and carboxyl functional groups on IL@mAC surfaces [44]. Another reason for formation of cation π bonding interactions is the easily protonated amine group at C4 of TCy [45], which is another desirable mechanism of TCy sorption [46]. The proposed mechanism for TCy removal by IL@mAC is illustrated in scheme 1. TCy has several polar/ionizing functional groups, including phenols, alcohols, ketones, and amino acids. The surface charge of IL@mAC was positive below pH 6.3 and negative above pH 6.3. Therefore, cation exchange reactions as well as surface complexity between TCy molecules and their respective ions/polar sites are expected to occur at the IL@mAC surface. However, these factors alone could not be the main aspects responsible for the strong uptake of TCy onto IL@mAC. In general, the following mechanisms are proposed for the strong IL@mAC adsorbent interactions to adsorb TCy: (1) van der Waals forces (permanent dipole-induced dipole forces and London dispersion forces), (2) π-π EDA interaction between electron-bonded electron segments and IL@mAC π electrons and (3) cation-π bond between amino proton group and IL@mAC π- electrons. The TCy molecule has a large flat ring structure. Thus, strong van der Waals forces are likely to occur between the TCy molecule and the IL@mAC surface. The π-π EDA interaction may be one of the most important non-hydrophobic adsorption forces for TCy removal. The conjugated anon structures of the TCy molecule can act as electron receptors due to the strong acceptance of electrons in the ketone group, and therefore strongly interact with the IL@mAC (π-electron-donor) surface of adsorbents via π-π interactions. Recently, the similar interactions of π-π EDA for nitro-aromatic compounds (π-electron-acceptor) with carbon-based adsorbents such as graphene (π-electron-donors), graphite, coal and carbon nanotubes has been proposed [47-49]. The results of the present study show that the selection and adsorption efficiency can be improved through specific molecular level interactions between organic contaminants and IL@mAC. 3.5. Modeling of TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC To obtain equilibrium data and apply different equilibrium models, the experiment was performed at pH 7 and temperature 303 K using 1.2 g/L IL@mAC dose in TCy initial concentration range from 50 to 1500 mg/L and agitated for 135 min (Fig S2). From the Fig S2, it can be observed that as the TCy initial concentration is increased the adsorption capacity increased from 40 to 815 mg/g and removal efficiency decreased from ~98 to ~65%. The competition between increased TCy molecules for less reaction sites onto IL@mAC could be the reason of diminution in % removal when the TCy concentration increased from 50 to 1500 mg/L. To further investigate the adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC, the adsorption isotherms are applied, which not only provide real information about adsorption capacity of IL@mAC, but also a deeper understanding of the reaction mechanism depending which model is best fitted to data. Equilibrium adsorption capacity (q eq ) and final equilibrium concentration (C eq ) after equilibrium are utilized to define the equilibrium. The isotherms can describe the reaction mechanisms between the adsorbent (IL@mAC) and adsorbed material (TCy). The three models named Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin are applied on equilibrium data of TCy-IL@mAC system. The non-linear equations representing these models are given in supplementary data (Section S1). From plotting and fitting of adsorption models and defining coefficient of determination (R 2 ), it can be predicted that which of the adsorption model is more appropriate and compatible with the experimental data of the adsorption process. The Langmuir parameters, q L and b L are estimated from non-linear fitting of Langmuir model (Fig. S3), Freundlich constants, k F and n are determined from non-linear fitting of Freundlich model (Fig. S3), and Temkin constants, b T and a T are measured from non-linear fitting of Temkin model (Fig. S3). The calculated parameters (models constants and R 2 ) from all models are presented in Table 3. Considering the R 2 for different models, it can be deduced that adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC is fitted with all models in decreasing order, Langmuir (0.9985), Temkin (0.9654), and Freundlich (0.9322). Higher R 2 value obtained from Langmuir model reveals that Langmuir is the best suited model to explain the mechanism of TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC. These findings suggest a monolayer adsorption of TCy onto homogeneous nature and surface of IL@mAC. The root mean square error (RMSE) and normalized standard deviation, Δq eq (%) are calculated for all the models, which are applied on TCy adsorption process onto IL@mAC and presented in Table 3. The lower values of RMSE (11.09) and Δq eq (2.767) for Langmuir model compared to Temkin (RMSE 53.39, Δq eq 6.761) and Freundlich (RMSE 70.20, Δq eq 60.79) models again confirms the suitability of this model to explain the adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC. Furthermore, the suitability of Langmuir model on experimental data also explains an indirect interaction between TCy and loss in the adsorption heat due to surface coverage. Besides, the estimated values of b L (0.0217) and adsorption intensity (1/n = 0.3084) are in the range of 0 to 1 indicating the suitable adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC (favorable if 1/n lower than 1). Consequently chemisorption/physisorption occurs during removal of TCy onto IL@mAC [38]. Further the higher value of b T estimated from Temkin model demonstrates a strong interaction force between IL@mAC (adsorbent) and TCy (adsorbate). The positive value of b T indicates that the adsorption process of TCy onto IL@mAC was endothermic [50]. The Langmuir adsorption capacity is very useful tool to compare the adsorption efficiency to other adsorbents reported in literature. The adsorption capacity of IL@mAC for TCy is compared with other reported adsorbents in the literature and presented in Table 4. From the comparison, it can be observed that IL@mAC has much greater adsorption capacity for TCy as compared to other state of art adsorbents listed in Table 4. Thus, IL@mAC could be an effective alternative to other state of art adsorbents. 3.6. Recyclability of IL@mAC If the adsorbed pollutants cannot be desorbed from the adsorbent materials, the adsorbents need to be disposed and cannot be recycled several times, then the nano-adsorbent itself becomes the environmental pollutant and its use is not economically justified. Therefore, recyclability of IL@mAC was accessed to verify its repeated binding with TCy and outcomes of adsorption-regeneration-desorption cycles have been presented in Fig. 6. The result outcomes in Fig. 6 indicates that IL@mAC could be regenerated and reused without any significant decrease in its TCy adsorption capacity. Consequently, the removal efficiency of IL@mAC to remove TCy remains around 85% after six cycles. Due to smaller particle size, IL@mAC has more pores for diffusion, therefore the desorption amount of TCy on IL@mAC is steady with desorption efficiency [27]. The decrease in removal efficiency after 6 th cycle might be due to the loss of IL@mAC adsorbent during recycling. These findings indicate that IL@mAC has the potential to be regenerated and reused many times for TCy removal. Therefore, it is possible to recycle and reuse IL@mAC to remove water pollutants, which makes IL@mAC of special economic and environmental importance. Table 4.

Conclusions In this research work, the AC was converted into mAC and then modified with IL to produce a novel adsorbent, IL@mAC (ionic liquid modified magnetic activated carbon). After that the IL@mAC was characterized and applied as adsorbent to remove TCy from water. IL@mAC owned plentiful functional groups and well-developed pore structure as well as quite high specific surface area. The results showed that all the parameters studied (i.e. initial TCy concentration, IL@mAC dose, contact time, and pH) are significantly effective on TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC. The highest removal efficiency (~88%) was achieved using 0.06 g/50 mL of IL@mAC in 135 min at pH 7 and temperature 303 K as obtained from 3D plots. The greatest effect on removal of TCy was observed for pH and amount of IL@mAC followed by contact time. The simultaneous effect of all these variables on removal efficiency of TCy was investigated and the obtained results were confirmed by the cases of random effects of different variables relative to each other. The adsorption progression of TCy was well stimulated by Langmuir model and the Langmuir monolayer adsorption capability was found to be 895.0 mg/g. H–bonding, electrostatic interaction, ion complexation and π–π interaction were the probable mechanisms contributive to the adsorptive removal of TCy onto IL@mAC. The findings indicates that the IL@mAC is of a high practical value having advantageous performance as an adsorbent and could be an alternative adsorbent for TCy elimination from water. The adsorption capacity of IL@mAC reported in this study is enormously superior compared to most of the adsorbents already reported.

Introduction","content":"\u003cp\u003eAntibiotics, which are a group of potent medicines have been widely used to cure infectious human and animal diseases\u0026nbsp;[1]. However, the same compounds have also been considered as new environmental pollutants categorized under the PPCPs (pharmaceuticals and personal care products) class\u0026nbsp;[2].\u0026nbsp;Veterinary antibiotics (like tetracycline (TCy)) have been widely administrated for combating bacterial infection in humans as well as for improvement of animals\u0026rsquo; feed and growth efficiency\u0026nbsp;[3].\u0026nbsp;Improper and extensive use of antibiotics leads to their intensive discharge into waste-water treatment facilities (WWTFs), which is due to their incomplete absorbance or metabolism in livestock or human bodies\u0026nbsp;[4].\u0026nbsp;From another viewpoint, conventional waste-water treatment units are not sufficiently able to degrade these products, which in turn, results in their constant discharge into the environment via different routes including wastewater sludge, effluents, as well as agricultural runoffs\u0026nbsp;[5].\u0026nbsp;Consequently, the frequent occurrence of pharmaceutical contaminants has turned to a new severe challenge because of the adverse impacts they impose on both ecosystems as well as human health\u0026nbsp;[5].\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTCy is an antibacterial agent ranked\u0026nbsp;as the secondly worldwide used antibiotic in aquaculture, human therapy, and veterinary medicines\u0026nbsp;[5].\u0026nbsp;Nevertheless,\u0026nbsp;due to low metabolism, poor absorption, overuse, and misuse, nearly most of the\u0026nbsp;administered TCy (80-90%) penetrates into aquatic ecosystems\u0026nbsp;[6]. Therefore,\u0026nbsp;TCy is considered among the\u0026nbsp;most occuring antibiotics in water bodies via water discharged from urban wastewater treatment \u0026nbsp;plants or agricultural effluents\u0026nbsp;[6].\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe potential environmental risks pertaining to\u0026nbsp;TCy\u0026nbsp;are mainly contributed to their broad-spectrum antimicrobial features\u0026nbsp;[7].\u0026nbsp;As the occurrence of antibiotics may lead to changes in microbial diversity and metabolism, the presence of TCy is supposed to be of adverse impacts on environment as well as human health\u0026nbsp;[8].\u0026nbsp;The catastrophic outcomes, including dispersion\u0026nbsp;of the genes resistant to antibiotics (that may no longer to be treated with current drugs), because of ineffectiveness of traditional treatment systems, have resulted in the need for more studies on cost-effective and efficient processes for TCy-containing waste-water treatment\u0026nbsp;[9].\u0026nbsp;Various techniques have been established for remediation of antibiotics-containing solutions, such as catalytic degradation, chemical oxidation, and membrane filtration etc.\u0026nbsp;[10], however various drawbacks are associated with these techniques such as toxic byproducts, sludge formation, expensive, and controversial affects when used at real scale\u0026nbsp;[11].\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of no harmful byproducts and lower costs\u0026nbsp;among the various technologies investigated for removing persistent and/or resistant compounds from aqueous solutions, the most promising technology seems to be adsorption\u0026nbsp;[12, 13]. Carbon-based\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/chemical-engineering/adsorption\" title=\"Learn more about Adsorption\"\u003ematerials\u003c/a\u003e are still regarded as the most attractive option amongst the most widely used adsorbents, and among them, a few studies have been conducted on TCy elimination\u0026nbsp;[14].\u0026nbsp;Activated carbon (AC) offers an attractive and inexpensive medium for removing inorganic and organic pollutants from aqueous solutions\u0026nbsp;[15]. Given its\u0026nbsp;porous structure and higher surface area, AC can adsorb compounds and gases (e.g. phenols, chlorophenols, and pesticides)\u0026nbsp;[16]\u0026nbsp;in an \u0026nbsp;efficient manner\u0026nbsp;[17]. Also, AC can be easily utilized and functionalized as efficient adsorbent for contaminants\u0026nbsp;[18]. Nevertheless, the small particle size makes them hard to be removed from aqueous solutions\u0026nbsp;[19]. To enhance the separation properties of powder AC, various methods have been originated and most effective is magnetic separation creating magnetic properties in AC\u0026nbsp;[20]. Magnetic AC (mAC) with superparamagnetic particles can be recovered by applying an external\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/chemistry/magnetic-field\" title=\"Learn more about Magnetic Field from ScienceDirect's AI-generated Topic Pages\"\u003emagnetic field\u003c/a\u003e very swiftly and can be reused without losing the active sites\u0026nbsp;[21].\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIonic liquids (ILs) have been categorized among organic salts made up of organic or inorganic anions and organic cations. ILs have numerous unique physicochemical characteristics, including lower toxicity, satisfying stability, tunable miscibility, and insignificant vapor pressure. Therefore, ILs are considered as favorable \u0026ldquo;green\u0026rdquo; materials used for various analytical applications\u0026nbsp;[22]\u0026nbsp;and have become an extremely popular item in separation and purification research. Especially, the magnetic materials functionalized with ILs have become more popular recently. Even though, ILs could not retain their liquid state while being modified on the materials surfaces, the other distinctive characteristics including low volatility and polarity have remained as a challenge. Also, the performance of the resulting materials can be improved by introducing the IL moieties leading to a wide range of applications\u0026nbsp;[23].\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThus, to integrate the above-mentioned merits, a novel type of material was developed by modifying the surface of mAC with IL called as ionic liquid modified magnetic activated carbon nanocomposite (IL@mAC) and used for the removal of TCy from water. This research was aimed to examine the effect of IL@mAC nanocomposite on removing TCy from aqueous environments through the following consecutive phases; (i) IL@mAC nanocomposite was prepared and\u0026nbsp;\u003ca href=\"https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en\u0026as_sdt=0,5\u0026q=characterized\"\u003echaracterized\u003c/a\u003e, (ii) the as-prepared IL@mAC was used for removing TCy under various circumstances of initial TCy concentration (mg/L), pH, IL@mAC dose (mg/L), and time (min), (iii) adsorption isotherms were determined to facilitate the results generalization for real-scale applications. Further response surface methodology (RSM) was also applied to observe the correlation of adsorption factors as function of TCy removal.

For this experiment, a 50 mL solution of 20 mg/L TCy was oscillated at 200 rpm after adding 0.015 g of IL@mAC for 12 h. The C\u003csub\u003eeq\u003c/sub\u003e of TCy was measured in the supernatant and removal efficiency was determined. After first cycle, IL@mAC was magnetically separated, and further remaining TCy was desorbed using 0.1 N NaOH from exhausted IL@mAC [27]. Next, IL@mAC was washed with water, dried and the recovered-dried IL@mAC was utilized again to perform TCy removal applying similar conditions. A total of six cycles were conducted adopting the same procedure.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"3.

The magnetic properties of IL@mAC were calculated using a VSM hysteresis loop as shown in Fig. 1b. These magnetic properties of IL@mAC, comprising saturation magnetization (MS; illustrates the material magnetization carried at a higher applied value of an external magnetic field H), remnant magnetization (Mr; this determines the residual magnetization after removing external magnetic field), and coercivity (Hc; this calculates the reverse field, which is required for magnetization to reach zero after saturation) are estimated to be 35.3 emu/g, 0.38 emu/g, and 20.71 G, respectively. Hence, the low Hc value of IL@mAC validates that the prepared material contains super-magnetic properties.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SEM micrographs of\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC\u0026nbsp;are shown in Fig. 2a, b.

Therefore, the large surface area and large V\u003csub\u003etotal\u003c/sub\u003e are two of the factors involved in adsorption efficiency that confirm the high and efficient adsorption removal ability of IL@mAC for TCy. It can be assumed that the modification of mAC with IL is responsible for increased surface area and decrease pore size of IL@mAC, which enhances the adsorption capability of AC resulting in efficient adsorption of TCy. Other factors responsible for high and efficient adsorption capacity of IL@mAC are discussed in section 3.4.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo prove that the IL was bonded to the mAC, the FTIR spectrum of as-synthesized IL@mAC was taken as shown in Fig 3a. The peak at 3527 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e is related to the -OH group. The characteristic peak of Fe-O bond is observed at 580 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e.

The peak at 1640 cm\u003csup\u003e\u0026minus;1\u003c/sup\u003e is assigned to the vibration of heteroaromatic C-H bond and the C-N vibration is appeared at 1570 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e. The peak of the FTIR spectrum at 1689 cm\u003csup\u003e-1\u003c/sup\u003e indicates that it is associated to the amide group\u0026rsquo;s tensile band.

In case of large F-values and small p-values, the parameter effectiveness can be high\u0026nbsp;[28].

The solution pH affects the nature of the IL@mAC and\u0026nbsp;TCy.\u0026nbsp;In case the pH is increased from 5 to 7, the % R\u003csub\u003eTCy\u003c/sub\u003e of IL@mAC towards the TCy is increased gradually. For the pH value higher than 7, the % R\u003csub\u003eTCy\u003c/sub\u003e is decreased rapidly. According to the results, the neutral environment is more favorable for the TCy enrichment on IL@mAC and TCy adsorption onto magnetite showed similar behavior\u0026nbsp;[32]. It is primarily because, the pH of solution affects the surface charge of the IL@mAC and the TCy forms in the solution\u0026nbsp;[33]. The value of pH affects the ionization degree of the TCy molecules. Three chemically distinct acidic functional groups are found in TCy: dimethylamine cation (pKa = 9.69), carboxymethyl (pKa = 3.30), and phenolic diketone (pKa = 7.68)\u0026nbsp;[34]. Therefore, for solution pH\u0026lt;3.30, the dominant form of TCy in the solution is the H\u003csub\u003e4\u003c/sub\u003eTCy\u003csup\u003e+\u003c/sup\u003e ions.\u0026nbsp;In case\u0026nbsp;the pH is within the 3.30\u0026ndash;7.68 range, TCy can be considered as a negatively charged hydroxyl group and a mixture of a dimethylamino group, where the dominant form is H\u003csub\u003e3\u003c/sub\u003eTCy. In case\u0026nbsp;the pH is within the 7.68\u0026ndash;9.69 range, the dominant form of TCy is the H\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003eTCy\u003csup\u003e\u0026minus;\u003c/sup\u003e ions.\u0026nbsp;In case\u0026nbsp;the solution pH\u0026gt;9.69, the dominant form of TCy is HTCy\u003csub\u003e2\u003c/sub\u003e\u003csup\u003e\u0026minus;\u003c/sup\u003e. Given that the ZPC of IL@mAC is found to be 6.3, the surface charge of IL@mAC is positive below pH 6.3 and negative above pH 6.3. Although both TCy and IL@mAC are of positive charge at pH below 6.3, whilst the maximum removal is observed, which indicates involvement of hydrogen bonding, \u0026pi;-\u0026pi; interaction along with electrostatic interactions between the surface of IL@mAC and TCy molecule\u0026nbsp;[35]. Similar results were reported by Figueroa et al.\u0026nbsp;[36]\u0026nbsp;and Rakshit et al.\u0026nbsp;[37]\u0026nbsp;as well. When the pH is raised from 3 to 5, amphoteric TCy ions, H\u003csub\u003e3\u003c/sub\u003eTCy, and other TCy forms found in the solution were primarily seized by IL@mAC via hydrogen, ligand exchange, and electrostatic reactions or slightly positive or negative charge of IL@mAC surface minimized the electrostatic/repulsive attraction with H\u003csub\u003e3\u003c/sub\u003eTCy\u0026nbsp;[35, 38]. In case of pH\u0026gt;9, the electrostatic repulsion is formed between the negatively charged IL@mAC and the negatively charged HTCy\u003csup\u003e2\u0026minus;\u003c/sup\u003e, leading to the rapid reduction of TCy adsorptive removal onto IL@mAC. At pHs less than 5 and above 7, the tendency of the adsorbent and adsorbate is reduced due to the neutral surface charge of one of them relative to each other, which reduces the removal efficiency\u0026nbsp;[39, 40].\u0026nbsp;The obtained results are also consistent with the results obtained by Guyer et al.\u0026nbsp;[41].\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA major effective factor for increasing the adsorption efficiency is the IL@mAC dose, because as the nanoparticle dose is increased, the surface area possessed by adsorbate for the exchange adsorption is increased\u0026nbsp;[40]. Evidently, as the IL@mAC dose is increased from 0.06 to 0.09 g/50 mL at pH=7, the efficiency of TCy removal is increased ranging from 75.44% to 82.52%. In addition, Fig. 5a shows that the highest efficiency of TCy removal (\u0026gt;82%) is observed at IL@mAC dose of 0.06 g/50 mL.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe contact time is another factor effective in the adsorption procedure. Fig. 5 (c,e,f) shows the effect of interaction of contact time with pH, TCy concentration and \u0026nbsp;IL@mAC dose. Figure 5c suggests that at the neutral pH, when the contact time is prolonged to 135 min, the removal efficiency is increased from 66.9% to 77.2%. For TCy adsorption procedure,\u0026nbsp;TCy transference\u0026nbsp;from the solution phase takes place into the IL@mAC pores and around the adsorption site.\u0026nbsp;At times higher than 135 min, the adsorption efficiency remains constant and does not change, probably due to the completion of the adsorption capacity of the\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC.\u0026nbsp;According to Fig. 5f, the interaction study between contact time and various TCy concentrations indicate that when the initial concentration of TCy is increased, the adsorption efficiency is decreased. Therefore, the higher rate of adsorption at the beginning of the adsorption procedure can be attributed to the superficial vacant sites of the IL@mAC that absorb TCy quickly and achieving the equilibrium. As the time passes after beginning of the procedure, the active adsorption sites are decreased and the TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC\u0026nbsp;is\u0026nbsp;declined. As a result, the external surfaces become nearly saturated, and the adsorption is continued as an internal and deep process, retarding the adsorption procedure, by which the efficiency of adsorption is maintained nearly constant\u0026nbsp;[32].\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe initial TCy concentration represents a major driving force present for hindering mass transfer from TCy between the solid and aqueous phases\u0026nbsp;[33]. As a result, as the initial concentration of TCy is increased, the removal efficiency declines. At higher doses, the higher TCy concentration leads to higher probability of severe collisions between the IL@mAC surface and\u0026nbsp;TCy\u0026nbsp;molecules (Fig. 5). According to Fig. 5 (b,d,f) the maximum removal efficiency of 88.75% is obtained at pH 7, 0.06 g/50 mL dosage of IL@mAC, temperature 303 K and TCy concentration of 775 mg/L. Further it can be observed that removal efficiency of TCy is increased as the pH increased till 7 and decreased as concentration of TCy increased. The removal efficiency of 83.7% is observed at pH 7, 0.06 g/50 mL IL@mAC dose and 412 mg/L TCy concentration and when the similar conditions are used for 1137.5 mg/L TCy, a decreased (70%) removal efficiency is observed. Form Fig. 5, it can be observed that the optimum conditions are found to be pH 7, IL@mAC dose 0.06 g/50 mL, time 135 min where maximum removal (~88%) efficiency is achieved.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.4. Mechanism of TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TCy functional groups can undergo many electronic coupling interactions such as \u0026pi;-\u0026pi; EDA\u0026nbsp;(electron donor acceptor), hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic interactions. Almost no TCy molecule carries net electrical charge within the 3-8 pH range, which results in hardly producing electrostatic attraction with\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC. A low TCy sorption at the elevated pH values (i.e. pH\u0026gt;~9) was observed, and at pH values lower than ~9, \u0026nbsp;the sorption was higher because of the EDA interactions occurred between bulk \u0026pi; systems on\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC\u0026nbsp;surface and TCy molecules contained both double bonds and benzene rings, or hydrogen bonds have a major role in the potential adsorption mechanism\u0026nbsp;[42]. At pH \u0026gt;~9, the adsorption efficiency will decline because of the similar charges present between TCy and\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC, indicating that the electrostatic interaction is the driving force of the adsorption. Moreover, It has also been reported that pore/size-selective adsorption is considered as a one of the major factors for TCy adsorption, where TCy is easily entered into the pores of\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC\u0026nbsp;because of their small molecular size (TCy: 0.403 nm\u003csup\u003e3\u003c/sup\u003e)\u0026nbsp;[43]. Furthermore, \u0026pi;-\u0026pi; and hydrogen bonding interaction between TCy and the IL in the mAC are also involved for TCy adsorption\u0026nbsp;[34]. Besides, hydroxyl, amine, phenol, and enone moieties of TCy may develop hydrogen bonds with hydroxyl and carboxyl functional groups on\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC\u0026nbsp;surfaces\u0026nbsp;[44]. Another reason for formation of cation \u0026pi; bonding interactions is the easily protonated amine group at C4 of TCy\u0026nbsp;[45], which is another desirable mechanism\u0026nbsp;of\u0026nbsp;TCy sorption\u0026nbsp;[46]. The proposed mechanism for TCy removal by\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC is\u0026nbsp;illustrated in scheme 1.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTCy has several polar/ionizing functional groups, including phenols, alcohols, ketones, and amino acids.\u0026nbsp;The surface charge of IL@mAC was positive below pH 6.3 and negative above pH 6.3.\u0026nbsp;Therefore, cation exchange reactions as well as surface complexity between TCy molecules and their respective ions/polar sites are expected to occur at the\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC\u0026nbsp;surface. However, these factors alone could not be the main aspects responsible for the strong uptake of TCy onto IL@mAC. In general, the following mechanisms are proposed for the strong IL@mAC adsorbent interactions to adsorb TCy: (1) van der Waals forces (permanent dipole-induced dipole forces and London dispersion forces), (2) \u0026pi;-\u0026pi; EDA interaction between electron-bonded electron segments and IL@mAC \u0026pi; electrons and (3) cation-\u0026pi; bond between amino proton group and IL@mAC \u0026pi;- electrons. The TCy molecule has a large flat ring structure. Thus, strong van der Waals forces are likely to occur between the TCy molecule and the IL@mAC surface. The \u0026pi;-\u0026pi; EDA interaction may be one of the most important non-hydrophobic adsorption forces for TCy removal. The conjugated anon structures of the TCy molecule can act as electron receptors due to the strong acceptance of electrons in the ketone group, and therefore strongly interact with the IL@mAC (\u0026pi;-electron-donor) surface of adsorbents via \u0026pi;-\u0026pi; interactions. Recently, the similar interactions of \u0026pi;-\u0026pi; EDA for nitro-aromatic compounds (\u0026pi;-electron-acceptor) with carbon-based adsorbents such as graphene (\u0026pi;-electron-donors), graphite, coal and carbon nanotubes has been proposed\u0026nbsp;[47-49]. The results of the present study show that the selection and adsorption efficiency can be improved through specific molecular level interactions between organic contaminants and\u0026nbsp;IL@mAC.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.5. Modeling of TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo obtain equilibrium data and apply different equilibrium models, the experiment was performed at pH 7 and temperature 303 K using 1.2 g/L IL@mAC dose in TCy initial concentration range from 50 to 1500 mg/L and agitated for 135 min (Fig S2). From the Fig S2, it can be observed that as the TCy initial concentration is increased the adsorption capacity increased from 40 to 815 mg/g and removal efficiency decreased from ~98 to ~65%. The competition between increased TCy molecules for less reaction sites onto IL@mAC could be the reason of diminution in % removal when the TCy concentration increased from 50 to 1500 mg/L. To further investigate the adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC, the adsorption isotherms are applied, which not only provide real information about adsorption capacity of IL@mAC, but also a deeper understanding of the reaction mechanism depending which model is best fitted to data. Equilibrium adsorption capacity (q\u003csub\u003eeq\u003c/sub\u003e) and final equilibrium concentration (C\u003csub\u003eeq\u003c/sub\u003e) after equilibrium are utilized to define the equilibrium. The isotherms can describe the reaction mechanisms between the adsorbent (IL@mAC) and adsorbed material (TCy).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe three models named Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin are applied on equilibrium data of TCy-IL@mAC system.\u0026nbsp;The non-linear equations representing these models are given in supplementary data (Section S1).\u0026nbsp;From plotting and fitting of adsorption models and defining coefficient of determination (R\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e), it can be predicted that which of the adsorption model is more appropriate and compatible with the experimental data of the adsorption process. The Langmuir parameters, q\u003csub\u003eL\u003c/sub\u003e and b\u003csub\u003eL\u003c/sub\u003e are estimated from non-linear fitting of Langmuir model (Fig. S3), Freundlich constants, k\u003csub\u003eF\u003c/sub\u003e and n are determined from non-linear fitting of Freundlich model (Fig. S3), and Temkin constants, b\u003csub\u003eT\u003c/sub\u003e and a\u003csub\u003eT\u003c/sub\u003e are measured from non-linear fitting of Temkin model (Fig. S3). The calculated parameters (models constants and R\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e) from all models are presented in Table 3.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsidering the R\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e for different models, it can be deduced that adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC is fitted with all models in decreasing order, Langmuir (0.9985), Temkin (0.9654), and Freundlich (0.9322). Higher R\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e value obtained from Langmuir model reveals that Langmuir is the best suited model to explain the mechanism of TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC. These findings suggest a monolayer adsorption of TCy onto homogeneous nature and surface of IL@mAC. The root mean square error (RMSE) and\u0026nbsp;normalized standard\u0026nbsp;deviation,\u0026nbsp;\u0026Delta;q\u003csub\u003eeq\u003c/sub\u003e (%) are calculated for all the models, which are applied on TCy adsorption process onto IL@mAC and presented in Table 3. The lower values of RMSE (11.09) and \u0026Delta;q\u003csub\u003eeq\u003c/sub\u003e (2.767) for Langmuir model compared to Temkin (RMSE 53.39, \u0026Delta;q\u003csub\u003eeq\u0026nbsp;\u003c/sub\u003e6.761) and Freundlich (RMSE 70.20, \u0026Delta;q\u003csub\u003eeq\u0026nbsp;\u003c/sub\u003e60.79) models again confirms the suitability of this model to explain the adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC. Furthermore, the suitability of Langmuir model on experimental data also explains an indirect interaction between TCy and loss in the adsorption heat due to surface coverage. Besides, the estimated values of b\u003csub\u003eL\u003c/sub\u003e (0.0217) and adsorption intensity (1/n = 0.3084) are in the range of 0 to 1 indicating the suitable adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC (favorable if 1/n lower than 1). Consequently chemisorption/physisorption occurs during removal of TCy onto IL@mAC\u0026nbsp;[38]. Further the higher value of b\u003csub\u003eT\u003c/sub\u003e estimated from Temkin model demonstrates a strong interaction force between IL@mAC (adsorbent) and TCy (adsorbate). The positive value of b\u003csub\u003eT\u003c/sub\u003e indicates that the adsorption process of TCy onto IL@mAC was endothermic\u0026nbsp;[50].\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Langmuir adsorption capacity is very useful tool to compare the adsorption efficiency to other adsorbents reported in literature. The adsorption capacity of IL@mAC for TCy is compared with other reported adsorbents in the literature and presented in Table 4. From the comparison, it can be observed that IL@mAC has much greater adsorption capacity for TCy as compared to other state of art adsorbents listed in Table 4. Thus, IL@mAC could be an effective alternative to other state of art adsorbents.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e3.6. Recyclability of IL@mAC\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf the adsorbed pollutants cannot be desorbed from the adsorbent materials, the adsorbents need to be disposed and cannot be recycled several times, then the nano-adsorbent itself becomes the environmental pollutant and its use is not economically justified. Therefore, recyclability of IL@mAC was accessed to verify its repeated binding with TCy and outcomes of adsorption-regeneration-desorption cycles have been presented in Fig. 6. The result outcomes in Fig. 6 indicates that IL@mAC could be regenerated and reused without any significant decrease in its TCy adsorption capacity. Consequently, the removal efficiency of IL@mAC to remove TCy remains around 85% after six cycles. Due to smaller particle size, IL@mAC has more pores for diffusion, therefore the desorption amount of TCy on IL@mAC is steady with desorption efficiency\u0026nbsp;[27]. The decrease in removal efficiency after 6\u003csup\u003eth\u003c/sup\u003e cycle might be due to the loss of IL@mAC adsorbent during recycling. These findings indicate that IL@mAC has the potential to be regenerated and reused many times for TCy removal. Therefore, it is possible to recycle and reuse IL@mAC to remove water pollutants, which makes IL@mAC of special economic and environmental importance.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp

Conclusions","content":"\u003cp\u003eIn this research work, the AC was converted into mAC and then modified with IL to produce a novel adsorbent, IL@mAC (ionic liquid modified magnetic activated carbon). After that the IL@mAC was characterized and applied as adsorbent to remove TCy from water. IL@mAC owned plentiful functional groups and well-developed pore structure as well as quite high specific surface area. The results showed that all the parameters studied (i.e. initial TCy concentration, IL@mAC dose, contact time, and pH) are significantly effective on TCy adsorption onto IL@mAC. The highest removal efficiency (~88%) was achieved using 0.06 g/50 mL of IL@mAC in 135 min at pH 7 and temperature 303 K as obtained from 3D plots. The greatest effect on removal of TCy was observed for pH and amount of IL@mAC followed by contact time. The simultaneous effect of all these variables on removal efficiency of TCy was investigated and the obtained results were confirmed by the cases of random effects of different variables relative to each other. The adsorption progression of TCy was well stimulated by Langmuir model and the Langmuir monolayer adsorption capability was found to be 895.0 mg/g. H\u0026ndash;bonding, electrostatic interaction, ion complexation and \u0026pi;\u0026ndash;\u0026pi; interaction were the probable mechanisms contributive to the adsorptive removal of TCy onto IL@mAC. The findings indicates that the IL@mAC is of a high practical value having advantageous performance as an adsorbent and could be an alternative adsorbent for TCy elimination from water. The adsorption capacity of IL@mAC reported in this study is enormously superior compared to most of the adsorbents already reported.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Declarations","content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCredit author statement\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdris Bazrafshan\u003c/strong\u003e: Data curation, Writing \u0026ndash; Original draft preparation \u003cstrong\u003eAmin Allah Zarei\u003c/strong\u003e: Methodology, Writing \u0026ndash; Original draft preparation \u003cstrong\u003eLeili Mohammadi\u003c/strong\u003e: Conceptualization, Methodology, Funding acquisition \u003cstrong\u003eMuhammad Nadeem Zafar\u003c/strong\u003e: Supervision, Conceptualization, Writing \u0026ndash; Reviewing \u0026amp; editing \u003cstrong\u003eMaryam Foroughi\u003c/strong\u003e: Visualization, Investigation \u003cstrong\u003eSumman Aman\u003c/strong\u003e: Writing \u0026ndash; Reviewing \u0026amp; editing \u003cstrong\u003eFaezeh Sabri\u003c/strong\u003e: Software \u003cstrong\u003eAmir Hossein Mahvi\u003c/strong\u003e: Validation, Resources \u003cstrong\u003eFarahnaz Barahuie\u003c/strong\u003e: Formal analysis \u003cstrong\u003eMuddassar Zafar\u003c/strong\u003e: Analysis, Validation.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDeclaration of Competing Interest\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is no competing financial interest between the authors.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcknowledgement\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eResearch reported here is supported by Elite Researcher Grant Committee under award number [982953] from the National Institutes for Medical Research Development (NIMAD), Tehran, Iran.

Due to low metabolism, poor absorption, overuse, and misuse, TCy is considered as threat to environmental and its removal from waste-water is vital. In this research, a novel ionic liquid modiଁed magnetic activated carbon nanocomposite (IL@mAC) was synthesized, characterized, and the adsorption efficiency of IL@mAC for removal of TCy was investigated under different operational parameters of pH (3-11); dose of IL@mAC (0.01-0.1 g/50 mL); reaction time (30-240 min), and initial TCy concentration (50-1500 mg/L). The IL@mAC characterization was done using XRD, VSM, SEM-EDX, BET, and FTIR. Results of equilibrium experiment showed that the highest removal efficiency (~98%) was obtained using 0.06 g of IL@mAC in 135 min at pH 7 and temperature 303 K. Considering the correlation coefficients (R\u003csup\u003e2\u003c/sup\u003e) for different adsorption models, it can be deduced that adsorption of TCy onto IL@mAC is better followed by Langmuir (0.9985) in comparison to Freundlich (0.9322), and Temkin (0.9654) models. Furthermore, Langmuir adsorption capacity was observed to be 895.0 mg/g. The regeneration study showed that IL@mAC retained around 85% TCy adsorption efficiency after 6th cycle. Finally, the present study indicates that the IL@mAC is of a high applicability and has extremely high adsorbent capacity to remove TCy from water compared to most of other benchmark adsorbents reported in literature.\u003c/p\u003e","manuscriptTitle":"Efficient tetracycline removal from aqueous solutions using ionic liquid modified magnetic activated carbon (IL@mAC)","msid":"","msnumber":"","nonDraftVersions":[{"code":2,"date":"2021-10-04 00:59:48","doi":"10.21203/rs.3.rs-943174/v2","editorialEvents":[{"type":"communityComments","content":0}],"status":"published","journal":{"display":true,"email":"
