A study on selective chelating precipitation of palladium metal from real electroplating wastewater using chitosan and its water-soluble derivative was conducted. The pH parameter, the concentrations of chitosan and its water-soluble derivative and the chelating precipitation time were experimentally investigated, and the optimum conditions were determined. The results revealed that both chitosan and its water-soluble derivative acted as chelating precipitation agents. Rapid chelating precipitation occurred when chitosan was added to real electroplating wastewater containing the chitosan derivative, thereby improving removal efficiency of palladium in different forms up to 95% under the optimum condition of 0.2 g/L chitosan and 0.16 mg/L derivative at pH 2.5. Then, dissolution experiments showed that chelating precipitation products could be dissolved in aqua regia. Additionally, selective chelating precipitation of palladium by chitosan and its derivative was characterized using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Thus, it can be concluded that the combined utilization of chitosan and its water-soluble derivative is a promising approach method for the removal of different forms of palladium from real electroplating wastewater.

It has been long desired but challenging to forward the advanced treatment of wastewater from empirical trials towards scientific design due to the lack of molecular insight into the pollutants of concern. Herein, we first established a systematic methodology to identify the ligands of Ni(II)-complexes in an electroless nickel (EN) plating effluent. The presence of N-containing groups in the ligands of most Ni(II)-complexes was verified by time-aligned ICP-MS and ESI-HRMS, implying the suitability of autocatalytic ozonation for efficient decomplexation. Thereby, a combined process was proposed on the basis of ozonation to achieve over 83% decomplexation of Ni(II) (initially at 0.36 mg/L), followed by selective Ni(II) sequestration for resource recovery. Combinational LC-MS systems revealed the ozonation-induced fragmentation or elimination of most Ni(II)-complexes as well as the structural change of the residual complexed molecules. The released free Ni(II) was further sequestrated by a nanocomposite of hydrated Zr(IV) oxide confined in a polymeric cation exchanger (nHZO@PCE). The fixed-bed working capacity of nHZO@PCE (∼550 BV) for the ozonated EN plating effluent was over 18 times that of the cation exchanger host (∼30 BV) at the breakthrough point of 0.10 mg Ni/L. More attractively, five adsorption-regeneration cycles demonstrated the great potential of the hybrid adsorbent for sustainable utilization. This study is believed to shed new light on how to design rational processes for advanced treatment of real wastewater based on molecular identification.

In this work, we reported the synthesis of siloxene catalysts from calcium silicide at various topotactic reaction conditions and demonstrated their photocatalytic activity for Cr(VI) reduction under visible light irradiations. The topotactic reaction time influenced the surface area, structure, and optical characteristics of the siloxene, which altered the Cr(VI) photocatalytic elimination efficiency. A large specific surface area (47.04 m 2 g −1 ) and a narrow bandgap (2.45 eV) with hydroxyl-terminated layered silicon of the S-12 h catalyst could enable more active sites for photocatalytic reaction, which results in the improved catalytic performance for Cr(VI) removal. The Density Functional Theory calculations proved the siloxene’s direct bandgap feature and narrow bandgap. The initial Cr(VI) concentration, solution pH, temperature, inert gas, and different scavenger's effects on the photocatalytic performance of the S-12 h catalyst were also investigated. The S-12 h photocatalyst exhibited the Cr(VI) reduction efficiency of 98.6% for the electroplating wastewater that demonstrates the potential application in industrial for treatment of heavy metal ions removal.

An ion-imprinted sorbent (IIP) was prepared by using Ni 2+ as template, 3-[2-(2-aminoethylamino) ethylamino] propyl-trimethoxysilane as functional monomer, and silica gel as carrier. The adsorption performance of IIP towards Ni 2+ was investigated. IIP showed a higher adsorption capacity than that of non-imprinted sorbent, and it also exhibited high selectivity for Ni 2+ in the presence of Cu 2+ and Zn 2+ ions. Then, IIP was used to form a dynamic membrane onto the surface of ceramic membrane for treatment of electroplating wastewater containing Ni 2+ . Compared with ceramic membrane, IIP dynamic membrane had much higher steady membrane flux, and also rejected Ni 2+ to obtain a lower concentration of Ni 2+ in the permeate fluid. Perhaps it is suitable for future practice applications.

Reductive immobilization of chromium in wastewater by nanoscale zero-valent metal (nZVM) prepared from steel pickling waste liquor was investigated. A series of characterization techniques were conducted to characterize the properties of the synthesized nanoparticles . Effects of pH, buffer substances, natural organic matter (NOM) and hardness were evaluated to probe the impact of environmental factors. Removal of Cr(VI) benefited from a decrease in pH value and the presences of buffer substances and Ca 2+ . NOM was found to be suppressive on the activity of ZVM, and coupled effect of Ca 2+ and NOM was additive effect due to their non-interference when operating under acidic condition. The nZVM was proved to be more effective (up to 40.6-fold) than zero-valent iron and nanoscale zero-valent iron for Cr(VI) removal, and its removal capacity in wastewater was 182 ± 2 mg g −1 . The removal mechanism included mass transfer on solid–liquid interface, reduction of Cr(VI) and simultaneous co-precipitation as Cr–Fe (oxy)hydroxide on the surface of nanoparticles. The results presented herein indicated nZVM was promising for in-situ remediation of Cr(VI).

The recovery of phosphorus (P) from wastewater has attracted substantial attention with the atrophy of global P resource. In the current work, the simultaneous recovery of P with the removal of nickel (Ni) via iron/activated carbon (Fe/AC) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) form nickel-plating wastewater was achieved. The isotherm reaction showed a maximum P recovery of 99.99% with an equilibrium concentration of P of 0.12 mg/L, which was lower than the limitation of discharge regulation (China national regulation, 0.5 mg/L). The optimal conditions for P recovery were 0.25 mol/L H 2 O 2 , a Fe/AC mass ratio of 1:1, an at 60 °C, which led to the ratio of P in the form of FePO 4 in the residue to be 77%. Moreover, the Fe/AC microelectrolysis coupling to H 2 O 2 promoted Fe 2+ production from Fe 0 and improved the circulation of Fe 2+ , which improved the production of hydroxyl radicals with increasing pH and consequently enhanced oxidation efficiency of hypophosphite. The FePO 4 was found the major form of phosphate in the precipitate. The highest removal rate of nickel was 89%, which was attributed to its precipitation at high pH and adsorption on to iron hydroxides and activated carbon. Nickel purification was achieved by further coagulation as the equilibrium concentration of Ni was lower than 0.1 mg/L. Therefore, our work provides a promising approach for simultaneous recovery of P and removal of Ni from electroplating wastewater.

Emerging Bi 2 S 3 -based nanotechnology has great potential in Cr(VI)-contaminated wastewater treatment . In this work, it was found for the first time that Bi 2 S 3 nanoparticles (BS-D) prepared from dual sulfur sources of L-cysteine and ammonium sulfide efficiently promoted Cr(VI) removal with excellent selectivity for simultaneous removal of Cr(VI) and Cu 2+ from aqueous solutions containing various co-existing ions (including Na + , K + , Ca 2+ , Zn 2+ , Ni 2+ , Cd 2+ , NO 3 – , SO 4 2− and Cl − ) at pH > 3, preferably at pH of 4.5. Besides, BS-D had stable performance for co-removal of Cr(VI) and Cu 2+ in five recycling tests. Kinetic and thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption of Cr(VI) or Cu 2+ by BS-D was a spontaneous endothermic process and conformed to pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorbed Cr(VI) ions were partially reduced to Cr(III), which were leached into the solution at pH ≤ 3, inhibiting the adsorption of Cu 2+ on BS-D and its promotional effect on Cr(VI) removal by BS-D. The mutual promotional effects between Cu 2+ and Cr(VI) during their co-removal by BS-D were ascribed to electrostatic attraction between HCrO 4 − and Cu 2+ and smaller pH variation in mixed Cr(VI)-Cu 2+ solutions. Finally, potential applications of BS-D were demonstrated by co-removal of Cr(VI) and Cu 2+ from real electroplating wastewater and contaminated groundwater. This work provided a promising BS-D adsorbent for Cr(VI)-contaminated wastewater treatment, and shed insight on the influence of Cu 2+ on the Cr(VI) removal by BS-D.

The heavy metals discharged from electroplating wastewater, represented as copper and chromium ions, is harmful to aquatic lives and human beings, and will break the ecological balance. In this work, magnetic hybrid porous structure adsorbent of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -UiO-66-EDTA is prepared for recycling copper and chromium ions. The adsorbent exhibits a maximum adsorption capacity of 212.10 mg/g for Cu(II) and 118.10 mg/g for Cr(VI). Notably, it shows excellent regenerability of 87.12% after 5 cycles. The adsorption of Cu(II) and Cr(VI) on Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -UiO-66-EDTA follows the pseudo-second-order model, where chemical adsorption is dominant and it occurs spontaneously and exothermally. Based on XRD, FTIR, XPS, and DFT calculations, the adsorption mechanisms are driven by electrostatic attraction, chelation, and redox reactions. This work provides a novel and promising strategy for designing highly efficient adsorbents, paving the way for more effective treatments of electroplating wastewater contaminated with Cu(II) and Cr(VI).

To separate ruthenium(III) from simulated electroplating wastewater, a kind of porous material, TRPO/SiO 2 –P, was used. TRPO/SiO 2 –P exhibited unique advantages compared with other materials, such as high selectivity ( SF Ru/other metals >35), large adsorption capacity (54.6 mg g −1 ), and fast adsorption kinetics (<3 h for equilibrium). The adsorption towards ruthenium was fitted with pseudo-second-order and Langmuir model. Moreover, ruthenium was efficiently separated from other metal ions from simulated electroplating wastewater by column experiments. Finally, SEM-EDS, XPS , FT-IR, and NMR study demonstrated the strong interaction between phosphorus functional groups (P =O) and ruthenium(III) during the whole adsorption process and meantime anion groups (NO 3 − and NO 2 − ) were involved to maintain charge balance. In brief, TRPO/SiO 2 –P has significant potential in the recovery of ruthenium from electroplating wastewater.

The electroless nickel (EN) industry has suffered from the reduction in Ni concentration to lower than 0.1 mg/L. Hence, Ni speciation along a typical sequential treatment scheme has important implications to optimize the design of advanced treatment. For the first time, we revealed the Ni speciation in segmented EN outfall effluents by virtue of multiple analytical methods. After ensuring all the Ni-bearing complexes were completely dissolved by size-fractioned ultrafiltration trials, customized mass spectra analysis was conducted. In a series of ICP-MS assays, the potential polyatomic interfering species was primarily excluded. The chromatography hyphenated IC-ICP-MS and SEC-ICP-MS results demonstrated that the dominant Ni species in the EN effluents was similar to EDTA-Ni but with a smaller size. The LC-MS experiment further distinguished several typical Ni-bearing complexes. Although Ni concentration declined continuously along the treatment scheme, the number of detected Ni-bearing complexes gradually increased but with lower molecular weights . Most of the detected mononuclear complexes had higher indexes of hydrogen deficiency (IHD) than EDTA-Ni, whereas it was believed that the similar stereo ring shape was widespread in the EN effluent. Considering the efficient Ni decrease after the Fenton unit, further post-treatment approaches featuring higher active radical yields were suggested.

In order to improve the adsorption efficiency of the adsorbent and solve the problem of separation difficulty, a novel superparamagnetic micro-nano-bio-adsorbent (PDA/Fe 3 O 4 /BC) was prepared by in situ self-assembly of polydopamine (PDA). The results of scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) characterization showed that the size of bio-adsorbent was about 200 nm. PDA and Fe 3 O 4 modifications increased the specific surface area of adsorbent, changed the surface functional group of biochar (BC), and made the adsorbent have super-high magnetization (294.76 emu g −1 ). PDA/Fe 3 O 4 /BC was applied to treat Cr wastewater. The results show that the adsorption of Cr by PDA/Fe 3 O 4 /BC includes single-layer and multilayer adsorption. The adsorption follows the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic, and its maximum adsorption capacity and activation energy are 25.25 mg g −1 at 318 K and 23.108 kJ mol −1 , respectively. After adsorption treatment, PDA/Fe 3 O 4 /BC still possesses high magnetization (233.04 emu g −1 ). PDA/Fe 3 O 4 /BC can treat actual electroplating wastewater with Cr(VI) concentration from 20 mg L −1 to less than 0.2 mg L −1 , which met the PRC discharge standard (GB/21900-2008) of electroplating pollutants.

Palladium , as a member of platinum group metals , has very little reserve in nature. It usually plays a role in corrosion resistance in the electroplating industry, and is easily discharged into electroplating wastewater during processing. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop efficient functional materials which can rapidly and selectively capture Pd(II). Herein, a mesoporous ion exchange resin (SiAaC) based on a silica framework was designed and synthesized by in situ polymerization method to efficiently remove Pd(II) from simulated electroplating wastewater. SiAaC exhibited unique advantages over traditional commercial resins, such as high adsorption capacity (121.8 mg/g), high selectivity ( SF Pd/M >230 in 0.01 M HNO 3 solution) and excellent reusability (n > 5). The adsorption results of SiAaC resin on Pd(II) are consistent with Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic models . In addition, the column experiment can efficiently separate Pd(II) from simulated electroplating wastewater. Furthermore, FT-IR and XPS spectra proved an ion exchange mechanism between SiAaC and Pd(II). In general, this research not only demonstrated an excellent material which can effectively and efficiently remove low-level palladium from simulated electroplating wastewater, but also provided a new perspective for the synthesis or improvement of ion exchange resins.
