Lead is a toxic heavy metal that has caused serious public health problems. It is necessary to find a cost effective method to deal with wastewater containing lead. In this paper, a novel composite polymer adsorbent, poly (methacrylic acid)-grafted chitosan /Loess composite (PMAA-g-CS/LC) was prepared through graft copolymerization reaction of methacrylic acid and chitosan in the presence of loess. The polymer adsorbent (PMAA-g-CS/LC) was characterized and applied to remove lead ions. It was found that the removal rate of Pb (II) reached to 99%. Adsorption dynamics were consistent with pseudo-second-order kinetic model and isotherm model can meet the Langmuir isotherm model.

Abstract This reported work aims to fabricate an eco-friendly Zr bio-based MOF and assessment its adsorption efficiency towards the cationic and anionic dye pollutants including methylene blue (MB) and direct red 81 (DR-81), respectively. Also, its adsorption tendency for the highly toxic heavy metal of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) was compared with dyes. The adsorption performance of bio-MOF showed that the maximum monolayer adsorption capacities were recorded as 79.799 mg/g for MB, 36.071 mg/g for DR-81, and 19.012 mg/g for Cr(VI). Meanwhile, the optimum dosage of as-synthesized MIP-202 bio-MOF was 0.5, 1, and 2 g L-1 for MB, DR-81, and Cr(VI), respectively. Thermodynamic analysis demonstrated the spontaneous, thermodynamically, and endothermic nature of the decontamination processes onto the fabricated Zr bio-based MOF. The adsorption data were fitted by Langmuir isotherm model compared with Freundlich and Temkin models for all studied water pollutants. Pseudo-second-order kinetic model was a fit model for description of the adsorption kinetics of the different cationic and anionic pollutants onto Zr bio-based MOF. These outcomes indicated that Zr bio-based MOF has potential application for adsorption of different types of industrial water pollutants including cationic and anionic dyes and heavy metals.

Cadmium (Cd) has caused serious public health problem due to its toxic nature. It is necessary to find a cost-effective method to dispose of wastewater containing Cd. Chironomid larvae as an alternative to conventional adsorbents were applied to remove Cd from wastewater. The sorption studies of Cd were carried out using laboratory-reared Glyptotendipes tokunagai (Diptera: Chironomidae) larvae. Kinetic and sorption capacity of chironomid larvae for Cd were determined by means of controlled experiments in a batch system. It was observed that removal efficiency of Cd was largely concentration dependent and more effective in lower concentration. At equilibrium, Cd was removed up to roughly 53 %. The sorption kinetics were found to conform to the pseudo-first-order kinetic model with a good correlation. Equilibrium sorption data were best fitted to the both Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models owing to their correlation coefficient R2 values greater than 0.99. Considering the values obtained from isotherm constants 1/n and r, it is confirmed that Cd is sorbed favorably by chironomid larvae. With its relatively high removal capability for Cd, Chironomid larvae have enormous potential for application in wastewater treatment technologies.

Herein, we demonstrate a simple and cost-effective method to prepare the new hierarchically Ni-doped porous CaCO3 monoliths in a large scale by mineralizing finger citron residue templates with a calcium acetate precursor. The morphology, microstructure, and element composition of as-prepared adsorbents are characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and N2 adsorption, respectively. Adsorption performance of anionic dye Congo red was investigated in a batch experiment. The results showed that pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir adsorption isotherm matched well for the Congo red adsorption. Compared with previously reported adsorbents, due to positive and negative charge effect between Congo red and Ni, Ni-doped porous CaCO3 monoliths demonstrated a superior Congo red dye adsorption capability. The results of the present study substantiate that Ni-doped porous CaCO3 monoliths is a promising adsorbent for the removal of the anionic dyes from wastewater.

Basic Fuchsin (BF) is a toxic triphenylmethane dye with molecular formula C20H20ClN3, which is easy to caused serious public health problems. There is a need to develop a cost effective method for its removal from the wastewater containing BF. Here, a novel composite polymer adsorbent, poly (maleic anhydride - acrylic acid - vinyl acetate)/Na-bentonite composite cross-linked with N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide was prepared by in situ copolymerization.

Adsorbent made by carbonization of biomass under oxygen-limited conditions has become a promising material for wastewater treatment owing to its cost-effective, simple, and eco-friendly processing method. Ultrasound is considered a green technique to modify carbon materials because it uses water as the solvent. In this study, a comparison of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) adsorption capacity between biochar (BC) generated by pyrolysis of water bamboo (Zizania latifolia) husks at 600 °C and ultrasound-assisted biochar (UBC) produced by pyrolysis at 600 °C assisted by ultrasonic irradiation was performed. UBC showed a greater reaction rate and reached about 80% removal efficiency after 4 h, while it took 24 h for BC to reach that level. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images indicated that the UBC morphology surface was more porous, with the structure of the combination of denser mesopores enhancing physiochemical properties of UBC. By Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller (BET), the specific surface areas of adsorbent materials were analyzed, and the surface areas of BC and UBC were 56.296 m2/g and 141.213 m2/g, respectively. Moreover, the pore volume of UBC was 0.039 cm3/g, which was higher than that of BC at 0.013 cm3/g. The adsorption isotherms and kinetics revealed the better fits of reactions to Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating the inclination towards monolayer adsorption and chemisorption of RB5 on water bamboo husk-based UBC.
