Abstract Novel magnetic Fe3O4@SiO2-ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (adsorbent) CMS–COOH-modified magnetic materials, CMS was prepared by surface modification of amino-functionalized Fe3O4@SiO2 (-NH2-modified magnetic materials, NMS) with EDTA using water-soluble carbodiimide as the cross-linker in deionized water solution. The phase structure, infrared spectra, thermal analysis and magnetic properties of were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and vibrating sample magnetometry and its properties for removal of heavy metal ions under varied experimental conditions were also investigated. The results revealed that CMS had good tolerance to low pH and exhibited good removal efficiency for the metal ions. The maximum adsorption capacities of CMS were found to be 0.11 mmol g−1 for Cu(II) at pH5.0 (30 °C) and 0.14 mmol g−1 for Pb(II) ions at pH2.0 (30 °C).

The problem of environmental pollution with heavy metals is relevant for the Republic of Belarus. One of the ways to remove heavy metals from industrial wastewater is to treat them with sorbents. Sorbents based on peat and brown coal are effective and inexpensive, but their use leads to secondary contamination of the treated environment with water-soluble organic compounds. It is shown that the developed sorption materials based on peat and brown coal residues sorb heavy metal ions (copper, nickel, zinc) and do not pollute the treated medium with water-soluble organic compounds (the COС value of sorption materials does not exceed 5 mg O2/dm3). It was found that the exchange capacity of sorption materials in an acidic medium (pH 2.0) is higher than that of humic acids and is in the range of 0.17–1.38 mmol/g. The use of ultrasonic treatment to increase the exchange capacity of sorption materials makes it possible to increase it by 2.3–3.0 times for copper ions and 2.2 times for zinc ions, which is due to the destruction of large aggregates. The obtained results formed the basis for the development of a technology for obtaining sorption materials for wastewater treatment from heavy metal ions.
