Corrosion protection technology plays a crucial role in preserving infrastructure, ensuring safety and reliability, and promoting long-term sustainability. In this study, we combined experiments and various analyses to investigate the mechanism of corrosion occurring on the epoxy-based anticorrosive coating containing the additive of two-dimensional (2D) and water-stable zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs). By using benzoic acid as the modulator for the growth of the MOF, a 2D MOF constructed from hexazirconium clusters and BTB linkers (BTB = 1,3,5-tri(4-carboxyphenyl)benzene) with coordinated benzoate (BA-ZrBTB) can be synthesized. By coating the BA-ZrBTB/epoxy composite film (BA-ZrBTB/EP) on the surface of cold-rolled steel (CRS), we found the lowest coating roughness (RMS) of BA-ZrBTB/EP is 2.83 nm with the highest water contact angle as 99.8°, which represents the hydrophobic coating surface. Notably, the corrosion rate of the BA-ZrBTB/EP coating is 2.28 × 10^-3 mpy, which is 4 orders of magnitude lower than that of the CRS substrate. Moreover, the energy barrier for oxygen diffusion through BA-ZrBTB/EP coating is larger than that for epoxy coating (EP), indicating improved oxygen resistance for adding 2D Zr-MOFs as the additive. These results underscore the high efficiency and potential of BA-ZrBTB as a highly promising agent for corrosion prevention in various commercial applications. Furthermore, this study represents the first instance of applying 2D Zr-MOF materials in anticorrosion applications, opening up new possibilities for advanced corrosion-resistant coatings.

The impact of Ba-modified peanut shell biochar (Ba-PSB) on Pb(II) removal was studied and BaCl₂ was used as a modifier. It was shown that the PSB obtained at 750 °C had the best adsorption effect, and the Ba-PSB had a larger specific surface area and a good adsorption effect on Pb(II). At pH = 5, concentration was 400 mg/L, time was 14 h, and temperature was 55 °C, the loading amount of black peanut shell biochar (BPSB), red peanut shell biochar (RPSB), Ba-BPSB, and Ba-RPSB reached 128.050, 98.217, 379.330, and 364.910 mg/g, respectively. In addition, based on the non-linear fitting, it was found that the quasi-second-order kinetic model, and isothermal model could be applied to describe Pb(II) adsorption on PSB and Ba-PSB. The adsorption behavior of PSB unmodified and modified was a spontaneous process. Moreover, chemical modification of BPSB, RPSB, Ba-BPSB, and Ba-RPSB for hindering of -COOH and -OH groups revealed 81.81, 77.08, 86.90, and 83.65% removal of Pb(II), respectively, which was due to the participation of -COOH, while 17.61, 21.70, 12.77, and 15.06% was from -OH group, respectively. The increase of cation strength (Na⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, and Mg²⁺) will reduce the adsorption capacity of PSB for Pb(II).

Bioaugmentation (BA) is an effective approach to remove polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from contaminated soils, and biochar is frequently used to enhance PAH degradation performance. In this study, phenanthrene (PHE) degradation behavior and active degraders in a petroleum-contaminated soil were investigated and compared between free-cell mediated and biochar-immobilization assisted bioaugmentation. Biochar-immobilization assisted bioaugmentation (BA-IPB) introduced PHE degraders immobilized on biochar and effectively promoted PHE degradation, achieving higher PHE removal efficiencies within 24 h (~58 %) than free-cell mediated bioaugmentation (BA-FPB, ~39 %). Soil microbial community structure significantly changed in both BA-FPB and BA-IPB treatments. Through RNA-stable isotope probing (SIP), 14 and 11 bacterial lineages responsible for in situ PHE degradation were identified in BA-FPB and BA-IPB treatments, respectively. ASV_17 in BA-FPB treatment was Rhodococcus in the exogenous bacterial mixture; in contrast, none of exogenous bacteria were involved in PHE degradation in BA-IPB treatment. Methylobacterium (ASV_186), Xanthomonas (ASV_41), Kroppenstedtia (ASV_205), Scopulibacillus (ASV_243), Bautia (ASV_356), and Lactobacillus (ASV_376) were identified as PHE degraders for the first time. Our findings expanded the knowledge of the active PHE degraders and underlying mechanisms in bioaugmentation process, and suggested biochar-immobilization assisted bioaugmentation as a promising strategy for the bioremediation of PAH contaminated soils.
