Abstract Ureido-functionalized mesoporous polyvinyl alcohol/silica composite nanofibre membranes were prepared by electrospinning technology and their application for removal of Pb2+ and Cu2+ from wastewater was discussed. The characteristics of the membranes were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and N2 adsorption-desorption analysis. Results show that the membranes have long fibrous shapes and worm-like mesoporous micromorphologies. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed the membranes were successfully functionalized with ureido groups. Pb2+ and Cu2+ adsorption behavior on the membranes followed a pseudo-second-order nonlinear kinetic model with approximately 30 minutes to equilibrium. Pb2+ adsorption was modelled using a Langmuir isotherm model with maximum adsorption capacity of 26.96 mg g−1. However, Cu2+ adsorption was well described by a Freundlich isotherm model with poor adsorption potential due to the tendency to form chelating complexes with several ureido groups. Notably, the membranes were easily regenerated through acid treatment, and maintained adsorption capacity of 91.87% after five regeneration cycles, showing potential for applications in controlling heavy metals-related pollution and metals reuse.

Efficient Adsorbent

Hydrazinolyzed cellulose-graft-polymethyl acrylate (Cell-g-PMA-HZ), an efficient adsorbent for removal of Cd(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution, has been prepared by ceric salt-initiated graft polymerization of methyl acrylate from microcrystalline cellulose surface and subsequent hydrazinolysis. The influences of initial pH, contact time, and temperature on adsorption capacity of Cell-g-PMA-HZ as well as adsorption equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic properties were examined in detail. As for Cd(II) adsorption, kinetic adsorption can be explained by pseudo-second-order, while adsorption isotherm fits well with Langmuir isotherm model, from which maximum equilibrium adsorption capacity can be derived as 235.85 mg g−1 at 28 °C. Further thermodynamic investigation indicated that adsorption of Cd(II) by adsorbent Cell-g-PMA-HZ is endothermic and spontaneous under studied conditions. On the other hand, isotherm of Pb(II) adsorption fits well with Freundlich isotherm model and is more likely to be a physical-adsorption-dominated process. Consecutive adsorption–desorption experiments showed that Cell-g-PMA-HZ is reusable with satisfactory adsorption capacity.

Abstract In this study graphene oxide (GO) reinforced polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composites hydrogels were synthesized and used as efficient adsorbents for Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL. GO nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by modified Hummer’s method. The composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Thermo-gravimetric analysis (TGA), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed homogeneous dispersion of reinforcement in the synthesized composites. Moreover thermal stability of the composites was significantly enhanced by the addition of graphene oxide nanoparticles. The synthesized composites were used for the removal of Drimarene brilliant Blue from model waste water. The effect of pH, content of GONPs and initial concentration of Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL on the adsorption capacity of synthesized GO/PVA composites were investigated. The equilibrium isothermal data were studied by applying Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. Results demonstrated that the adsorption process is well described by the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. According to the Langmuir model, maximum adsorption capacity i.e. 32mg/g was obtained at 0.7% GO/PVA composite. From the kinetic study it was concluded that pseudo-second-order model is the best fitted. Synthesized composites showed excellent reusability (almost 95 %) for the adsorption of Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL after four successive cycles of adsorption and desorption. Thus, the GO/PVA composites demonstrated a great potential in terms of cost effectiveness, efficiency and reusability for the removal of Drimarene Brilliant Blue K-4BL dye.

In this work, an organic-free method was used to synthesize different morphological boehmite by controlling the crystallization temperature, and alumina adsorbents were obtained by baking the boehmites at 500 °C. The alumina adsorbents were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), High resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), N2 adsorption/desorption analysis, and their phosphorus adsorption properties were comparatively investigated by a series of experiments. The results showed that the self-prepared alumina adsorbents were lamellar and fibrous material, while the industrial adsorbent was a granular material. The lamellar alumina adsorbents had the largest specific surface area and showed better phosphorus adsorption capacity. The maximum adsorption capacity could reach up to 588.2 mg·g−1; and only 0.8 g·L−1 of lamellar alumina adsorbent is needed to treat 100 mg·L−1 phosphorus solution under the Chinese level 1 discharge standard (0.5 mg·L−1). Further investigation suggests that the lamellar alumina adsorbent kept high adsorption capacity in various solution environments.

In this research, CuFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized by co-precipitation methods and modified by coating with thiophene for removal of Hg(II) ions from aqueous solution. CuFe2O4 nanoparticles, with and without thiophene, were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive x-ray (EDX), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET). Contact time, adsorbent dose, solution pH, adsorption kinetics, adsorption isotherm and recyclability were studied. The maximum adsorption capacity towards Hg2+ ions was 7.53 and 208.77 mg/g for CuFe2O4 and CuFe2O4@Polythiophene composite, respectively. Modification of CuFe2O4 nanoparticles with thiophene revealed an enhanced adsorption towards Hg2+ removal more than CuFe2O4 nanoparticles. The promising adsorption performance of Hg2+ ions by CuFe2O4@Polythiophene composite generates from soft acid–soft base strong interaction between sulfur group of thiophene and Hg(II) ions. Furthermore, CuFe2O4@Polythiophene composite has both high stability and reusability due to its removal efficiency, has no significant decrease after five adsorption–desorption cycles and can be easily removed from aqueous solution by external magnetic field after adsorption experiments took place. Therefore, CuFe2O4@Polythiophene composite is applicable for removal Hg(II) ions from aqueous solution and may be suitable for removal other heavy metals.

AbstractThe treatment of stormwater to remove and recover nutrients has received increasing interest. The objective of this study was to develop a novel adsorbent that is easy to handle, has good adsorption capacity, and is economical to use. A novel nanocomposite of montmorillonite (MT)-anchored magnetite (Fe3O4) was synthesised by co-precipitation as an adsorbent for ammonium. The MT/Fe3O4 nanocomposite had pore sizes (3–13 nm) in the range of narrow mesopores. The dispersion of the anchored Fe3O4 was confirmed by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The nanocomposite exhibited higher affinity towards ammonium than the original MT. The Langmuir isotherm model was found to be the most suitable model to explain the ammonium adsorption behaviour of the nanocomposite. The maximum adsorption capacity for ammonium was 10.48 mg/g. The adsorption mechanism was a combination of ion exchange and electrostatic interaction. In an authentic stormwater sample, the synthesised adsorbent removed 64.2% of ammonium and reduced the amount of heavy metal contaminants including Mn, Ni, Cu and Zn. Furthermore, the ammonium loading on MT/Fe3O4 during adsorption functionalised the adsorbent surface. Additionally, the spent nanocomposite showed potential for rare earth elements (REEs) adsorption as a secondary application, especially for the selective adsorption of Sc3+. The versatile application of montmorillonite-anchored magnetite nanocomposite makes it a promising adsorbent for water treatment. Graphic abstract

In this study, a magnetically separable Fe3O4/CeO2 (Fe/Ce) nanocomposite is synthesized by sol-precipitation method and characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive spectrometer , vibrating sample magnetometer, atomic absorption spectrometer, and zeta potential measurements. The Fe/Ce is used as sorbent to adsorb anionic dye of Acid Black 210 (AB210) from aqueous solutions, and the maximum adsorption capacity is about 90.50 mg/g, which is six times higher than that of the commercial CeO2. Dependence of absorption performance on essential factors, such as initial dye concentration, temperature and initial pH, are experimentally examined. The result shows that the adsorption kinetic of Fe/Ce follows pseudo-second-order model and the adsorption isotherm is well described by the Langmuir adsorption model. Furthermore, the thermodynamic analysis indicates that the adsorption of Fe/Ce for AB210 is spontaneous and endothermic.

Increasing heavy metal pollution in water continues to endanger human health. The genus Shinella has potential for heavy metal bioremediation but has rarely been studied. In this study, we report that Shinella zoogloeoides PQ7 turns black in the presence of lead ions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM–EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated that PbS nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by PQ7. Moreover, PQ7 was used as a biosorbent to remove Pb(II) from aqueous solutions. Biosorption performance was evaluated in terms of contact time, pH, biomass dosage and initial Pb(II) concentration. The equilibrium and kinetic data were consistent with the Freundlich isotherm model (R2 = 0.986) and pseudo-second-order model (R2 = 0.977), respectively. The maximum (qmax) Pb(II) adsorption reached 222.22 mg/g, which was higher than that of other bacteria reported in previous literature. SEM–EDS, XRD and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyses also confirmed the adsorption of Pb(II) by the PQ7 cells. In conclusion, PQ7 is a promising strain in removing and recovering Pb(II) from wastewater.
