Tannic acid/graphene oxide (TA/GO) composites were prepared in the present research, and their properties and sorption performance were evaluated by corresponding characterization methods and bath sorption experiments, respectively. The applications of TA/GO to remove U(VI) from aqueous solution were investigated with the maximum adsorption capacity of 87.8 mg·g−1 at low pH (pH = 3.6 ± 0.03). The sorption of U(VI) ions on TA/GO followed the Langmuir model because of the complexation of oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of TA/GO composites and uranium ions. TA/GO manifested excellent selective adsorption toward uranium ions with other metal ions (Cs+, Sr2+, Co2+). Furthermore, TA/GO as an effective adsorbent was reused to remove a large amount of U(VI) ions from aqueous solution. Therefore, TA/GO is an ideal material to remove highly toxic U(VI) ions from wastewater.

Abstract A novel magnetic bio-adsorbent (MCIA) was developed, characterized and tested for its Cd(II) removal from aqueous solution. MCIA could be easily separated from the solution after equilibrium adsorption due to its super-paramagnetic property. The functional and magnetic bio-material was an attractive adsorbent for the removal of Cd(II) from aqueous solution owing to the abundant adsorption sites, amino-group and oxygen-containing groups on the surface of Cyclosorus interruptus. The experimental results indicated that the MCIA exhibited excellent adsorption ability and the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The adsorption isotherm was consistent with the Langmuir model. The adsorption kinetic fitted the pseudo-second-order model very well. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cd(II) onto MCIA was 40.8, 49.4, 54.6 and 56.6 mg/g at 293, 303, 313 and 323 K, respectively. And the MCIA exhibited an excellent reusability and impressive regeneration. Therefore, MCIA could serve as a sustainable, efficient and low-cost magnetic adsorbent for Cd(II) removal from aqueous solution.
