Abstract Pollution by heavy metals has become a problem that needs to be solved urgently. Therefore, the development of new efficient adsorbents to treat this pollution is of great importance. Due to their excellent adsorption properties and good biodegradability, natural polymeric materials are potential problem solvers. This study reports on the production and application of polypropylene glycol modified chitosan composites (PMC). The PMC composite material has many functional groups (–OH and –NH2). Its maximum adsorption capacity for Cu(II) is 661.8 mg g–1. The corresponding adsorption studies, including the effects of pH, contact time and amount of adsorbent, showed that the PMC composite has potential application value.

Abstract A green functional adsorbent (CAD) was prepared by Schiff base reaction of chitosan and amino-modified diatomite. The morphology, structure and adsorption properties of the CAD were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer Emmett Teller measurements. The effect of pH value, contact time and temperature on the adsorption of Hg(II) ions for the CAD is discussed in detail. The experimental results showed that the CAD had a large specific surface area and multifunctional groups such as amino, hydroxyl and Schiff base. The optimum adsorption effect was obtained when the pH value, temperature and contact time were 4, 25 °C and 120 min, respectively, and the corresponding maximum adsorption capacity of Hg(II) ions reached 102 mg/g. Moreover, the adsorption behavior of Hg(II) ions for the CAD followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir model. The negative ΔG0 and ΔH0 suggested that the adsorption was a spontaneous exothermic process.

Abstract To remove Ni(II) ions from an aqueous solution, researchers used red mud modified by chitosan (RM/CS) material as a new adsorbent. According to the findings, the surface area of red mud is nearly doubled after being treated with chitosan, from 68.6 m2/g to 105.7 m2/g. The effects of pH solution, contact time, and material dosage on the Ni(II) uptake were examined. In comparison with the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models, the intra-diffusion model was the most suitable kinetic model for the Ni(II) removal. Besides, the three-parameter Sips model was used to predict the Ni(II) adsorption of RM/CS from aqueous solution. Furthermore, the Langmuir maximum Ni(II) uptake capacity of this material was 31.66 mg/g at 323K, which was higher than red mud and several other natural materials. Notably, thermodynamic investigations demonstrated that Ni(II) adsorption on RM/CS is both exothermic and physic.

A new composite absorbent with multifunctional and environmental-friendly structures was prepared using chitosan, diatomite and polyvinyl alcohol as the raw materials, and glutaraldehyde as a cross-linking agent. The structure and morphology of the composite absorbent, and its adsorption properties of Hg(II) in water were characterized with Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET) measurements and ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectra. The effect of the pH value and contact time on the removal rate and absorbance of Hg(II) was discussed. The adsorption kinetic model and static adsorption isotherm and regeneration of the obtained composite absorbent were investigated. The results indicated that the removal of Hg(II) on the composite absorbent followed a rapid adsorption for 50 min, and was close to the adsorption saturation after 1 h, which is in accord with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. When the pH value, contact time and the mass of the composite absorbent was 3, 1 h and 100 mg, respectively, the removal rate of Hg(II) on the composite absorbent reached 77%, and the maximum adsorption capacity of Hg(II) reached 195.7 mg g −1 .

In this study, physically and chemically modified chitosan; protonated glycerol diglycidyl ether cross-linked chitosan beads (GDCLCB/H+) were prepared and characterized using FTIR and SEM. The optimum defluoridation capacity (DC) of GDCLCB/H+ was observed at the initial F- ion concentration of 15 mg/l, adsorbent dosage of 0.6 g, contact time of 30 min and pH of the solution was in the range of 5–7 at 303 ± 2 K. The equilibrium adsorption data fitted well with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The maximum adsorption capacity (q0), obtained from Langmuir isotherm for F-adsorption was found to be 2000 mg/kg, which was significantly higher than that of unmodified chitosan (192.3 mg/kg) and most of the chitosan-based sorbents reported in the literature. Water samples collected from Medawachchiya, Sri Lanka, were treated with the adsorbents and the results suggested that GDCLCB/H+ could be used as an effective defluoridation agent.

Adsorption is most commonly applied process for the removal of pollutants such as dyes and heavy metals ions from wastewater. The present work talks about preparing graphenic material attached sand grains called graphene sand composite (GSC) by using ordinary sugar as a carbon source. Physical morphology and chemical composition of GSC was examined by using (FTIR, SEM, EDAX and XRD). Efficiency of GSC in the adsorption of organic dyes from water was investigated using reactive green dye with different parameters such as (ph, temperature, contact time and dose). Adsorption isotherm was also studied and the results showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of dye is 28.98 mg/g. This fast, low-cost process can be used to manufacture commercial filters to treat contaminated water using appropriate engineering designs.

Gold is one of the precious metals with multiple uses, whose deposits are much smaller than the global production needs. Therefore, extracting maximum gold quantities from industrial diluted solutions is a must. Am-L-GA is a new material, obtained by an Amberlite XAD7-type commercial resin, functionalized through saturation with L-glutamic acid, whose adsorption capacity has been proved to be higher than those of other materials utilized for gold adsorption. In this context, this article presents the results of a factorial design experiment for optimizing the gold recovery from residual solutions resulting from the electronics industry using Am-L-GA. Firstly, the material was characterized using atomic force microscopy (AFM), to emphasize the material’s characteristics, essential for the adsorption quality. Then, the study showed that among the parameters taken into account in the analysis (pH, temperature, initial gold concentration, and contact time), the initial gold concentration in the solution plays a determinant role in the removal process and the contact time has a slightly positive effect, whereas the pH and temperature do not influence the adsorption capacity. The maximum adsorption capacity of 29.27 mg/L was obtained by optimizing the adsorption process, with the control factors having the following values: contact time ~106 min, initial Au(III) concentration of ~164 mg/L, pH = 4, and temperature of 25 °C. It is highlighted that the factorial design method is an excellent instrument to determine the effects of different factors influencing the adsorption process. The method can be applied for any adsorption process if it is necessary to reduce the number of experiments, to diminish the resources or time consumption, or for expanding the investigation domain above the experimental limits.

Abstract A high concentration of calcium ions in water is a problem as it can cause blockages in engine pipes. Adsorption is a relatively cheap and straightforward method that can be used to reduce the calcium ion content in water. Kaolin is a mineral that has a potential as an adsorbent and whose adsorption capacity can be increased by activation. This research studied the adsorption capacity of activated kaolin by hydrochloric acid against Ca2+ ions. Kaolin was chemically activated using 6 M HCl solution for 24 hours. The adsorption contact time in batches was varied with time variations of 30, 90, 150, and 180 minutes. The maximum adsorption capacity of activated kaolin to the Ca2+ was determined by varying the initial concentrations of water samples, namely 4, 7, 10, and 13 mg/L. The concentration of Ca2+ was determined by a titration method using ethylene diamine tetraacetate (EDTA). The results showed that the activation of kaolin with 6 M HCl at the optimum contact time of adsorption, namely 150 minutes, increased the percentage of adsorbed Ca ions to 2 times of that of natural kaolin, from 33.3% to 68.3%. Based on the Langmuir equation, the maximum adsorption capacity of calcium ions by activated kaolin HCl 6 M increased 1.7 times from natural kaolin to 0.346 mg/g.
