Gentle one-step co-precipitation to synthesize bimetallic CoCu-MOF immobilized laccase for boosting enzyme stability and Congo red removal

Bentonite-ionic liquid composites for Congo red removal from aqueous solutions

Laccase has received extensive attention in pollutant degradation due to its high efficiency and environmental friendliness, but free laccase has poor stability, easy inactivation, and difficulty in recycling, which limited its application. It was a smart strategy to construct a synergistic system for the efficient adsorption and degradation of pollutants by enzyme immobilization to improve the stability and recyclability of the enzyme. In this study, the materials were synthesized by a one-step co-precipitation method. With Cu-MOF as the main body, Co2+ was introduced to construct bimetallic CoCu-MOF as the protective carrier of the enzyme. The enzyme-carrying capacity and enzyme activity of Lac@CoCu-MOF were 2-fold and 3.5-fold higher than those of Lac@Cu-MOF, respectively. Lac@MOF composites had a good protective effect on enzyme in various interfering environments. At pH = 7, free laccase was completely inactivated and Lac@CoCu-MOF maintained 51.76% enzyme activity. In addition, the removal rate of Congo red by Lac@CoCu-MOF reached 90 % in 1 h at pH = 4 % and 95 % in 5 h at pH = 7, and the final TOC mineralization rate reached 86.05 %. After six cycles, the degradation rate of Lac@CoCu-MOF remained above 75 %. Therefore, Lac@CoCu-MOF was constructed with the advantages of enzyme immobilization (enhanced stability and easy operation), material adsorption, and biocatalysis (fast diffusion and high activity), which has great guiding significance for the industrial application of enzyme.

Gentle one-step co-precipitation to synthesize bimetallic CoCu-MOF immobilized laccase for boosting enzyme stability and Congo red removal.

Even in the first quarter of the XXI century, the presence of organic dyes in wastewaters was a normal occurrence in a series of countries. As these compounds are toxic, their removal from these waters is a necessity. Among the separation technologies, adsorption processing appeared as one of the most widely used to reach this goal. The present work reviewed the most recent approaches (first half of the 2021 year) regarding the use of a variety of adsorbents in the removal of a variety of organic dyes of different natures.
