In this work, three kinds of hyperbranched polyamidoamine-palygorskite (PAMAM-Pal) were designed and synthesized by grafting the first generation polyamidoamine (G1.0 PAMAM), G2.0 PAMAM and G3.0 PAMAM onto Pal surfaces, respectively. Then, these PAMAM-Pals were used as additives to prepare polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/hyperbranched polyamidoamine-palygorskite bicomponent composite membranes. The structures of the composite membranes were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermo gravimetric analysis (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), field-emission scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The adsorption properties of composite membranes to heavy metal ions was studied, and the results found that the maximum adsorption capacities for Cu(II), Ni(II) and Cd(II) could reach 155.19 mg/g, 124.28 mg/g and 125.55 mg/g, respectively, for the PVDF/G3.0 PAMAM-Pal membrane, while only 23.70 mg/g, 17.74 mg/g and 14.87 mg/g could be obtained for unmodified membranes in the same conditions. The high adsorption capacity can be ascribed to the large number of amine-terminated groups, amide groups and carbonyl groups of the composite membrane. The above results indicated that the prepared composite membrane has a high adsorption capacity for heavy metal ions removal in water treatment.

Microporous composite membranes containing from one to three ultrathin layers were obtained by multistage immersion of a paper base in a solution of cellulose acetate in acetone. The physicochemical properties of membranes have been studied and the parameters of membrane separation of heavy metal ions from tap water have been determined. An increase in the particle size and a decrease in the absolute value of the ζ-potential with an increase in the concentration of cellulose acetate in acetone were revealed. It was found that the porosity of the membranes increased from 47 % to 51 % depending on the number of ultrathin cellulose acetate layers on the substrate surface. A decrease in the moisture absorption of composite membranes and an increase in the contact angle of wetting with distilled water from 30.0° to 68.8°, depending on the number of ultrathin layers, were noted. Microscopic examination of the membrane surface showed that the ultrathin layer consists of many pores with sizes less than 1 micron. The absorption bands in the IR spectra of cellulose acetate and the surface of the composite microporous cellulose acetate (MAC) membrane are identical. The retention capacity of MAC composite membranes, determined by iron ions from an iron (III) chloride solution, ranged from 47.5 to 97.4 % depending on the number of cellulose acetate layers on the substrate surface with a specific productivity of 27.9 to 7399 dm3/(m2·h) and a pressure of 0.35 MPa. A high selectivity of a microporous membrane of three layers of cellulose acetate (MAC3) with respect to heavy metal ions contained in tap water was established: Cr3+ (96 %) > Cu2+ (92 %) > Fe3+ (90 %) > Mn2+ (45 %).

The scope of this article is to develop composite membranes using chitosan (CS) and graphene oxide (GO) as adsorbents for the removal of inorganic pollutants such as heavy metal ions, particularly Pb2+, from aqueous solutions. GO was obtained by modified Hummers method and blended with CS solution. The introduction of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) compound to CS/GO suspension lead to an increased adsorption capacity of CS/GO for the elimination of heavy metals by forming stable chelates with them. The synthesized membranes were examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the adsorption behaviour of Pb2+ from aqueous solutions using CS/EDTA/GO membranes was evaluated using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The adsorption performance of Pb2+ ions was studied by monitoring the concentration of Pb2+ against the adsorption period at an initial content of the adsorbent. The maximum adsorption efficiency of Pb2+ metal ions reached 767 mg·g−1 for CS/EDTA/GO 0.1%, 889 mg·g−1 for CS/EDTA/GO 0.3%, 970 mg·g−1 for CS/EDTA, 853 mg·g−1 for CS and 1526 mg·g−1 for GO. These findings show promising potential for CS/EDTA/GO membranes as effective adsorbent materials for the removal of heavy metal ions in water.
