The ability of TiN -nanotube to remove lead ( Pb ( II )) and arsenic ( As ( III )) ions from aqueous solutions is investigated. The thermodynamics properties of Pb ( II ) and As ( III ) ions passing through TiN -nanotubes ( TiN - NTs ) is calculated in basis set (B3LYP/6-31G**) DFT-IR method by Gaussian program package. The results showed, Pb ( II ) and As ( III ) passing through had low potential in middle nanotubes, and are trapped in this place. The thermodynamic properties showed; the passing through are spontaneous and favorable because ΔGele (MJ/mol) is negative for them. The goal of this study is the detection of surface species of TiN - NTs for metal ions removal by using computer calculations. The structural and thermodynamic properties studied ions absorption on TiN - NTs at room temperature.

Porous polysulphone (PSf) microspheres were modified by blending DNA into them and immobilizing DNA onto their surfaces. The DNA-modified microspheres, which were stable in water, were then used to remove endocrine disruptors and heavy metal ions from their aqueous solutions. Such microspheres could effectively accumulate pollutant compounds and endocrine disruptors, such as ethidium bromide, Acridine Orange, biphenyl, dibenzofuran and dibenzo- p-dioxin from their aqueous solutions. PSf microspheres without DNA also accumulated and removed endocrine disruptors due to their porosity and the hydrophobic interaction between the endocrine disruptors and PSf. Endocrine disruptors with and without a planar structure were effectively accumulated and removed by the DNA-modified PSf microspheres. In addition, PSf microspheres were found to be capable of selectively removing heavy metal ions such as Zn2+, Cu2+, Mg2+, Cd2+ and Ag+ from their aqueous solutions. These results show that DNA can be used to modify PSf microspheres, with the DNA-modified microspheres having a potential use in environmental applications.
