Magnetic citric acid-modified cellulose was successfully produced and tested for the removal of copper in aqueous solution. Initially, the cellulose material was reacted with citric acid solution. The modified cellulose was then attached to the Fe2O3nanoparticle producing an adsorptive magnetic material. Characterization using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy indicated successful binding and chemical modification of the cellulose. Its adsorption was also studied to evaluate its potential in removing heavy metals such as copper. Removal of copper was as high as 84.74% in solution containing 25 mg/L copper. The sorption of copper in the magnetic sorbent follows second-order kinetics and best fits Freundlich isotherm model. The developed material has a strong magnetic response, thus its recovery in the aqueous solution could be easily facilitated using a magnetic field. Regeneration study indicated high recovery efficiency maintaining above 95.7% copper removal efficiency after three cycles of use. Thus, a highly efficient magnetic adsorptive material was produced using simple chemical modification aside from its easy recovery in the water.

Citric acid capped CdS quantum dots (CA-CdS QDs), a new assembled fluorescent probe for copper ions (Cu2+), was synthesized successfully by a simple hydrothermal method. In this work, the fluorescence sensor for the detection of heavy and transition metal (HTM) ions has been extensively studied in aqueous solution. The results of the present study indicate that the obtained CA-CdS QDs could detect Cu2+ with high sensitivity and selectivity. It found that the existence of Cu2+ has a significant fluorescence quenching with a large red shifted (from greenish-yellow to yellowish-orange), but not in the presence of 17 other HTM ions. As a result, Cu2S, the energy level below the CdS conduction band, could be formed at the surface of the CA-CdS QDs and leads to the quenching of fluorescence of CA-CdS QDs. Under optimal conditions, the copper ions detection range using the synthesized fluorescence sensor was 1.0 × 10‒8 M to 5.0 × 10‒5 M and the limit of detection (LOD) is 9.2 × 10‒9 M. Besides, the as-synthesized CA-CdS QDs sensor exhibited good selectivity toward Cu2+ relative to other common metal ions. Thus, the CA-CdS QDs has potential applications for detecting Cu2+ in real water samples.
