Abstract Heavy metal ions pollution is one of the most dangerous and critical threats to human health and environment. In this work, three different generations of PAMAM dendrimer decorated on magnetic Fe 3 O 4 composites (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G1, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G3, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G5) were fabricated and characterized by FTIR, XRD, TEM, and TGA. The obtained composites were used for Cr(VI) removal. Batch adsorption studies showed that the adsorption reached equilibrium within 60 min, and the optimal pH was 3.0. The result of adsorption kinetics was simulated by the pseudo–second-order model. The adsorption equilibrium isotherm was well fitted with the Langmuir adsorption model. Furthermore, thermodynamics calculations revealed that the adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. Importantly, adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) obey the sequence of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G1<Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G5<Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G3, 3 generation of PAMAM (3G) is the optimal for adsorption capacity of Cr(VI). The maximum theoretical Cr(VI) adsorption capacity ( q m ) of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G3 was 334.45 mg/g, and removal ration remained above 89.5% after five cycles of adsorption–desorption. Thus, Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 –G3 is predicted to be an efficient adsorbent for the adsorption of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution, and the obtained results can help in the generation optimization during fabrication of dendrimer modified adsorbents.

β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) incorporated polyacrylonitrile (PAN) composite nanofibers were successfully prepared by using electrospinning technique and used as a novel adsorbent for the elimination of dyes from aqueous solution. The formations of bead-free and uniform nanofibers were obtained using various compositions of homogeneous solution of β-CD and PAN in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The morphology and structure of nanofibers were determined and characterized by SEM, XRD, TGA, and FTIR analysis. The adsorption performance of prepared nanofibers was examined by using methylene blue (MB) and methyl violet (MV) as adsorbate. Results showed that β-CD/PAN nanofibers were achieved equilibrium point within 2h with 96.21 % and 94.37 % adsorption of MV and MB, respectively at ambient condition. In addition, adsorption capacity of nanofibers was studied under different experimental conditions and their effects on adsorption capacity such as temperature, pH, and contact time. The regeneration of β-CD/PAN nanofibers were carried out using methanol and re used five times as an adsorbent, Results indicates that regenerated adsorbent was adsorb 89.0% and 85.22 % of MV and MB, respectively in 5th cycle.
