In recent years, tire wear particles (TWP), as the significant proportion of microplastics (MPs), has adsorbed much attention due to its widespread presence in aquatic ecosystem . Compared with typical MPs, TWP exists significant differences in composition, additives, characteristics and so on. With TWP and polypropylene (PP) as target MPs, Cd 2+ and Pb 2+ as target pollutants, the adsorption-desorption characteristics of heavy metal ions on original and aged MPs were studied. Compare with the PP, the S BET of TWP increased more significantly after the UV ageing process. Meanwhile, the zeta potential of TWP increased from −8.01 to −14.6 mV and PP from −5.36 to −9.52 mV, and the surface of the TWP were more negatively-charged. In addition, the hydrophilicity of MPs enhanced due to the increased oxygen-containing functional groups after ageing process. Compared with PP, the physicochemical properties of TWP changed more obviously during UV ageing processes. The adsorption results showed that the pseudo-second-order model could better describe the adsorption processes of Cd 2+ and Pb 2+ on MPs. Meanwhile, the orders of adsorption capacity of MPs for Cd 2+ and Pb 2+ were aged TWP > aged PP > original TWP > original PP. The phenomenon of adsorption confirmed that TWP had better vector effects for heavy metal ions than PP, and the ageing processes could enhance the adsorption capacity of MPs. Moreover, the desorption results demonstrated that, compared with PP, the TWP (with higher adsorption capacity) also had the better desorption capacity for heavy metal ions in simulated gastric fluid. Compared with PP, the TWP might cause a more serious hazard to aquatic environment and organisms. These investigations would contribute to assessing the potential environmental and biological risk of TWP, especially considering the effect of the ageing process.

A rigid Pb(II)-imprinted polymers were synthesized by the combination of surface-imprinted method with sol–gel method using (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane as a functional monomer, Pb(II) and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide as template ions and tetraethoxysilane as cross-linker and were used as adsorbents for the removal of Pb(II). The effect of molar ratio of cross-linker to functional monomer on the morphology and adsorption performance has been evaluated. The effects of pH, initial concentration and adsorption time on the adsorption performance of Pb(II) on both sorbents were investigated. The maximum adsorption capacity calculated from Langmuir isotherm was 68.03 mg g -1 and 17.13 mg g -1 for Pb(II)-IIP and Pb(II)-NIP, respectively. Kinetics studies showed that the adsorption process obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The selective adsorption coefficient of Pb(II)-IIP for Pb(II)/Ni(II), Pb(II)/Cd(II), Pb(II)/Hg(II) and Pb(II)/Co(II) are 117.5, 1.42, 4.9 and 30.24, respectively. The spent Pb(II)-IIP could be reused at least five cycles, demonstrating its good practicability.

Phosphate-modified baker's yeast (PMBY) was prepared, and used as a novel bio-sorbent for the adsorption of Pb2+ from aqueous solution. The influencing factors, absorption isotherms, kinetics, and mechanism were investigated. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) characterization and elemental analysis of PMBY showed that phosphate groups were successfully grafted onto the surface of yeast. The kinetic studies suggested that the adsorption process followed a pseudo-second-order chemisorption. The adsorption process of Pb2+ using PMBY was spontaneous and endothermic. Furthermore, the adsorption of Pb2+ on PMBY can rapidly achieve adsorption equilibrium (in just 3 min), and the maximum adsorption capacity of Pb2+ on PMBY was found to be 92 mg g−1 at 30 °C, which was about 3 times that of the pristine baker's yeast. The suggested mechanism for Pb2+ adsorption on PMBY was based upon ion-exchange, electrostatic interaction and chelation between the phosphate groups and Pb2+. However, compared with the pristine baker's yeast, the higher capacity and rapid adsorption of PMBY for Pb2+ was mainly due to the chelation and electrostatic interactions between the phosphate groups and Pb2+. In addition, the regeneration experiments indicated that the PMBY was easily recovered through desorption in 0.01 M HCl, and that PMBY still exhibited 90.77% of the original adsorption capacity for Pb2+ after five regeneration cycles. These results showed the excellent regeneration capability of PMBY for Pb2+ adsorption. PMBY has shown significant potential for the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution due to its rapid adsorption, high-capacity and facile preparation.

ZIF-67@Yeast was synthesized with in-situ growth procedure by using hydrothermally carbonized yeast as the substrate material. The prepared ZIF-67@Yeast was characterized in detail by SEM, BET, XRD and TG analysis. In addition, the adsorption properties of Pb 2+ by ZIF-67@Yeast were also investigated. The results show that the adsorption capacity of Pb 2+ by ZIF-67@Yeast is larger than the sum of the adsorption capacity of Pb 2+ by individual yeast and ZIF-67. Yeast could maintain a stable morphology after hydrothermal carbonization at 180 °C. Therefore, many MOFs synthesized by hydrothermal or microwave methods at 180 °C could also be compounded with Yeast as a base material. This provides more possibilities that heavy metal ions are adsorbed by the synthesis of more diverse MOFs composites.
