The cost-effective and green separation of dye pollutants from wastewater is of great importance in environmental remediation. Industrial seaweed residue (SR), as a low-cost cellulose source, was used to produce carboxylated nanorized-SR (NSR) via oxalic acid (OA)–water pretreatments followed by ultrasonic disintegration. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray polycrystalline diffraction, nitrogen isotherms, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry, particle charge detection, zeta potential and retro titration experiments were utilized to explore the physiochemical properties of samples. The NSRs with carboxyl content of 4.58–6.73 mmol g−1 were prepared using 10–60% OA–water pretreatment. In the case of 20% OA–water pretreatment, the highest NSR yield (73.9%) and nanocellulose content (80.2%) were obtained. Through self-assembly induced by the electrostatic interaction, magnetic NSR composite adsorbents (MNSRs) were prepared with the combination of NSR and Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs). The carboxylated NSR with negative charge demonstrated good affinity for Fe3O4 NPs. The Fe3O4 NPs were perfectly microencapsulated with the NSR when the NSR/Fe3O4 mass ratio was higher than 1/1. The adsorption properties of the MNSR for methylene blue (MB) removal from aqueous solution were investigated. The adsorbent with NSR/Fe3O4 mass ratio of 1/1 (MNSR1/1) exhibited optimum performance in terms of the magnetic properties and adsorption capacity. The MNSR1/1 showed high adsorption ability in a pH ≥7 environment. According to the Langmuir fitting, the maximum adsorption capacity of MNSR1/1 for MB reached 184.25 mg g−1. The adsorption of MB complies with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. MNSR1/1 still maintained good adsorption properties after the fifth cycle of adsorption–desorption. MNSR1/1 could selectively adsorb cationic dye (i.e., MB and methyl violet) from wastewater, with hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction as the main force.

Glutaraldehyde cross-linked chitosan-coated Fe3O4 nanocomposites (MCNPs) were successfully synthesized for the removal of methyl orange (MO) from wastewater. Experimental conditions such as the pH, cation surfactant dosage, nanoadsorbent dosage, and ionic strength were also investigated. Kinetics date was better fit by a pseudo-second-order model, indicating that adsorption was the rate-limiting step. The Freundlich models (R2 = 0.9794) fit the experimental data better than the Langmuir models, and the theoretical maximum adsorption capacity was 758 mg g–1. The values of the Gibbs free energy (ΔG° = −7.27 kJ mol–1), enthalpy (ΔH° = 0.001 kJ mol–1), and entropy (ΔS° = 23.58 J mol–1) indicated the spontaneous and endothermic process of MO adsorption. The prepared MCNPs showed 96–98% adsorption of MO by adding 0.2 mg of cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to form mixed hemimicelles and can be easily regenerated with a 0.1 mol L–1 HCl solution.

In this study, L-methionine and nano-Fe 3 O 4 were encapsulated and cured on sodium alginate by the ionic cross-linking method to form magnetic composite gel spheres (SML) as an adsorbent for the removal of Zn(II) from water. The influence of adsorbent dosages, pH, reaction time, and initial ion concentration on the ability of the gel spheres to adsorb Zn(II) was investigated, and the adsorption mechanism was identified. The experimental results showed that under the optimum conditions (pH = 5, t = 60 min, dosage of SML is 0.7 g·L −1 ), the maximum amount of Zn(II) adsorbed by the adsorbent gel spheres reached 86.84 mgˑg −1 . The reaction process of this adsorbent fits well with the Langmuir and pseudo-second-order kinetic models and is a heat absorption reaction. The adsorbent would preferentially adsorb Pb(II), and the adsorption efficiency of Zn(II) decreased when the concentration of interfering ions increased in the coexistence system. Further mechanistic research showed that this magnetic composite adsorbent is a mesoporous material with superior adsorption performance, and the amino and carboxyl groups on it react with Zn(II) via ligand chelation; the ion exchange effect of Ca(II) also plays a role. The adsorption amount of Zn(II) was maintained at a higher level after 5 cycles, and the loss of Fe was approximately 0.2%. In summary, SML, which is environmentally friendly, efficient, and recyclable, is an ideal adsorbent for Zn(II) removal.

A pH- and temperature-responsive magnetic adsorbent [poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) grafted chitosan/Fe3O4 composite particles, CN-MCP], was synthesized for the removal of the endocrine-disrupting chemical nonylphenol. According to the structural characteristics (changeable surface-charge and hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties) of the targeted contaminant, CN-MCP was designed owning special structure (pH- and temperature-responsiveness for the changeable surface-charge and adjustable hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties, respectively). Compared to chitosan magnetic composite particles without grafting modification (CS-MCP) and several other reported adsorbents, CN-MCP exhibited relatively high adsorption capacity for nonylphenol under corresponding optimal conditions (123 mg/g at pH 9 and 20 °C; 116 mg/g at pH 5 and 40 °C). Meanwhile, high selectivity of the novel adsorbent in selective adsorption of nonylphenol from bisolute solution of nonylphenol and phenol was found. Effects of grafting ratio of the grafted polymer branches and coexisting inorganic salts on the adsorption were systematically investigated. Moreover, CN-MCP demonstrated desired reusability during 20 times of adsorption–desorption recycling. The high adsorption capacity, high selectivity, and desired reusability aforementioned revealed the significant application potential of CN-MCP in the removal of NP. On the basis of the adsorption behaviors, isotherms equilibrium, thermodynamics and kinetics studies, and instrumental analyses including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, BET specific surface area, zeta potential, and static water contact angle measurements, distinct adsorption mechanisms were found under various conditions: charge attraction between CN-MCP and the contaminant, as well as binding between polymeric branches of CN-MCP and nonyls, contributed to the adsorption at pH 9 and 20 °C; whereas hydrophobic interaction between CN-MCP and nonylphenol played a dominant role at pH 5 and 40 °C. The current study provided a strategy for the structural design of adsorbents according to the features of targeted emerging contaminants, and the continuity of the work was discussed and proposed.

In this work, we developed a cheap and effective magnetic composite adsorbent ( MSP ) by introducing starch/polyethyleneimine to the surface of magnetic mesoporous silica. The prepared material was characterized by FT-IR, TG, XRD, SEM and TEM to determine its composition and morphology. Adsorption experiment showed that the removal rate of mercury(II) and adsorption capacity could reach 97.87% and 244.87 mg/g after 150 min. The kinetic study indicated that the adsorption data fitted well with the pseudo-second-order model, and the adsorption equilibrium data belonged to the Langmuir model. Meanwhile, the study of coexisting ions showed that MSP had a highly selective adsorption of mercury(II), and the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent after five times accounted for 91.27% of the initial adsorption capacity, which indicated magnetic nanomaterial manifested excellent selectivity and reutilization for mercury(II) adsorption. All in all, a feasible methods and cheap materials were implied to prepare a new magnetic composite adsorbent, and it will be a candidate for uptake of mercury(II) ions from industrial wastewater.

Attapulgite (ATP) has a unique porous layered chain structure and is an excellent environment-friendly decolorizer. However, its high viscosity makes it difficult to separate. First, it was combined with magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles to obtain Fe 3 O 4 -ATP that is easy to recycle and reuse. Then, Fe 3 O 4 -ATP nanoparticles were embedded in chitosan (CS) gel beads, and glutaraldehyde was used for cross-linking and curing. Lastly, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) was successfully connected to Fe 3 O 4 -ATP/CS gel beads through amidation reaction, which further increased the capability of the adsorbent to adsorb heavy metal ions. The prepared magnetic composite adsorbent is a sphere with a rough surface and porous structure. The maximum adsorption capacity of the prepared Fe 3 O 4 -ATP/EDTA/CS adsorbent for Pb(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) is 368.32, 267.94, and 220.31 mg g −1 , respectively. After 5 times of repeated use, Fe 3 O 4 -ATP/EDTA/CS still showed good adsorption capacity for Cu(II), Pb(II), and Ni(II). Fe 3 O 4 -ATP/EDTA/CS has a large adsorption capacity for heavy metal ions, a wide pH applicability, good reuse, and rapid magnetic separation. In addition, Cu(II) loaded Fe 3 O 4 -ATP/EDTA/CS also showed good catalytic degradation performance for bisphenol A. This study prepared a new type of adsorbent with good adsorption performance and provided a promising method for the treatment of wastewater.

A new type of metal organic frame-based magnetic composite adsorbent UiO-66-NH 2 /graphene oxide/Fe 3 O 4 was used to eliminate the adverse effects of boron in the desalinated seawater. Through serial characterization, it was found that this adsorbent has the advantages of strong magnetic response, good pore structure and abundant functional groups. On the basis of single-factor experiments on various influencing factors, the simulation and prediction capabilities of the response surface method and artificial neural network method for the adsorption process were studied and compared. Both methods shown strong capacity to make effective prediction on the process of adsorption. However, the error of response surface method is smaller than the error of artificial neural network method. Result of optimization by response surface method shows that the optimal conditions of adsorbent dosage, pH, and temperature are 99.1 mg/L, 3.38 and 318 K. Following the above conditions, the boron adsorption capacity of the adsorbent obtained in the real desalinated seawater environment is 22.46 mg/g. In addition, the adsorbent shows good recyclability. Pseudo-second-order kinetic model, intra-particle diffusion model, and Langmuir isotherm model are all suitable for describing adsorption process. Thermodynamic research results reveal the fact that this process is spontaneous and endothermic, and the adsorption of boron by the adsorbent is a composite process consisting of physical adsorption and chemical adsorption.
