Abstract

Estrogenic hormones, found as micropollutants in water systems, give rise to grave concerns for human health and marine ecosystems, triggering a cascade of adverse effects. This research presents an innovative manufacturing approach using nanoscale layered double hydroxides of magnesium and iron, with sodium dodecyl sulfate surfactant, to create highly efficient sorbent cement kiln dust (CKD) based beads (CKD/MgFe-SDS-LDH-beads). These beads effectively remove estrone from water. Optimization of the preparation process considered factors like molar Mg/Fe ratio, CKD dosage, pH, and SDS dosage using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The adsorption process was well-characterized by Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models, demonstrating a remarkable 6.491 mg/g sorption capacity. Results proved that the calcite was the main component of the CKD with miners of dolomite, and quartz. Adsorption capacity, surface charges, and the availability of vacant sites may be the main mechanisms responsible of removal process. Experimental tests confirmed the beads' potential for estrone removal, aligning with the Bohart-Adams and Thomas-BDST models. This study introduces a promising, eco-friendly solution for addressing water contamination challenges.
