The detection of heavy metals, such as Hg 2+ and Fe 3+ , is of great significance. In this work, fluorescent small-molecule BODIPY (BY-3) bearing C C group was synthesized firstly. And then, the chitosan-based polymer sensor CY-1 was synthesized through the spontaneous NH 2 /C≡C click reaction. The synthesized CY-1 can effectively bind and recognize Hg 2+ /Hg + by the –C=N groups formed in the click reaction. Moreover, the macromolecular sensors CS-1 and CS-2 were synthesized by incorporating another recognition sites to CY-1. These synthesized macromolecular sensors can not only recognize Hg 2+ /Hg + , but also effectively recognize Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ . All of them exhibited significant quenching effect, visible to the naked eye under UV irradiation. The detection limit of CY-1 for Hg 2+ was 1.51 × 10 −6 mol/L, and the detection limit of CS-2 for Fe 3+ was 2.30 × 10 −6 mol/L. The BODIPY-chitosan sensors synthesized in this work have the functions of removing heavy metal ions besides the identifying ability. The maximum adsorption capacity of 1 g chitosan to Hg 2+ was 108 mg as the best one. This article provides a new method to prepare macromolecular sensors for the detection and removal of heavy metal ions. As a useful natural polymer, chitosan's application scope was enlarged.

Given the severe threat posed by heavy metal pollution to both the ecological environment and human health, the development of green, efficient and sustainable adsorbents has become a major research focus. Herein, a novel heavy metal ions adsorbent (De-UiO-66-IDSA) was synthesized by functionalizing defect UiO-66 with the biodegradable chelating agent iminodisuccinic acid (IDSA). The effects of different factors on the adsorption of Pb 2+ , Cu 2+ and Cd 2+ by UiO-66-IDSA were investigated, including IDSA loading, contact time, adsorbent dosage and pH. Batch adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption kinetics followed PSO model, while the isotherm data were best described by the Langmuir model, indicating a monolayer chemisorption process. The maximum adsorption capacities for Pb 2+ , Cu 2+ and Cd 2+ were 377.40, 163.60, and 204.10 mg/g at 298 K, respectively and the adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic. Moreover, regeneration experiments demonstrated that the adsorbent retained over 75 % of its removal efficiency for all three metal ions after 5 cycles. These results highlight the great potential of De-UiO-66-IDSA as a green, high-performance, and a regenerable adsorbent capable of effectively eliminating heavy metal ions from aqueous media.

Kapok fiber, a natural hollow fiber with thin shell and large cavity, has rarely been used as adsorbent for heavy metal ions. In this paper, kapok fibers were modified with diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) after hydrophilicity treatment. The adsorption behavior of the resultant kapok-DTPA influenced by pH, adsorption time and initial concentration of metal ion was investigated. The results demonstrate that adsorption equilibrium was reached within 2 min for Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ . Adsorption kinetics showed that the adsorption rate was well fitted by pseudo-second-order rate model. The adsorption isotherms were studied, and the best fit was obtained in the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacities of kapok-DTPA were 310.6 mg g −1 for Pb 2+ , 163.7 mg g −1 for Cd 2+ , 101.0 mg g −1 for Cu 2+ , respectively. After eight desorption and re-adsorption loops, the lost adsorption capacities for Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ were less than 10 %. Because of the large specific area derived from the hollow fiber structure, kapok-DTPA exhibited much better adsorption capacity compared with many other reported adsorbents based on natural materials.

As an ideal transition metal oxide, Co 3 O 4 is a P-type semiconductor with excellent electrical conductivity, non-toxicity and low cost. This work reports the successful construction of Co 3 O 4 materials derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) using a surfactant micelle template-solvothermal method. The modified electrodes are investigated for their ability to electrochemically detect Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ in aqueous environments. By adjusting the mass ratios of alkaline modifiers, the morphological microstructures of Co 3 O 4 -X exhibit a transition from distinctive microspheres composed of fiber stacks to rods. The results indicate that Co 3 O 4 -1(NH 4 F/CO(NH 2 ) 2 = 1:0) has a distinctive microsphere structure composed of stacked fibers, unlike the other two materials. Co 3 O 4 -1/GCE is used as the active material of the modified electrode, it shows the largest peak response currents to Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ , and efficiently detects Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ in the aqueous environment individually and simultaneously. The linear response range of Co 3 O 4 -1/GCE for the simultaneous detection of Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ is 0.5–1.5 μM, with the limits of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) are 9.77 nM and 14.97 nM, respectively. The material exhibits a favorable electrochemical response, via a distinctive Co 3 O 4 -1 microsphere structure composed of stacked fibers. This structure enhances the number of active adsorption sites on the material, thereby facilitating the adsorption of heavy metal ions (HMIs). The presence of oxygen vacancies (O V ) can also facilitate the adsorption of ions. The Co 3 O 4 -1/GCE electrode also exhibits excellent anti-interference ability, stability, and repeatability. This is of great practical significance for detecting Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ in real water samples and provides a new approach for developing high-performance metal oxide electrochemical sensors derived from MOFs.

Metal nanomaterials have been reported as effective absorbents for the removal of pollutants in the water system, but the release of ions from these nanomaterials brings another concern. Herein, silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) were encapsulated in porous metal-organic frameworks of ZIF-8 (MOF-AgNCs). Compared to AgNCs, the release of Ag+significantly decreases from MOF-AgNCs, indicating that the product presents a lower threat to the environment. The MOF-AgNCs were employed for the rapid removal of heavy metals, such as Pb2+and Mn2+, from water. The mechanism and removal efficiencies were investigated.Keywords:nanoclusters;metal-organic frameworks;heavy metal ions

Flotation reagents and heavy metal ions always coexist in mineral flotation wastewaters, arousing serious environmental issues or having deleterious effects on mineral flotation. In this work, the steel slag was adopted as a cost-effective adsorbent to synergically remove butyl xanthate (BX), diethyl dithiocarbamate (DDTC), Cu(II) and Pb(II) ions. At the steel slag dosage of 12.0 g/L, Cu(II) and Pb(II) concentrations decreased from 4.0 mg/L to below 10.0 μg/L, and the removal of COD reached 54.33%. The removal efficiency of COD increased from 11.36% to 57.49% as Cu(II) and Pb(II) concentrations rose from 0 to 8.0 mg/L, revealing the promotion effects of metallic ions on collector adsorption. The maximum uptake capacity of steel slag reached 110.45 and 160.48 mg/g for Cu(II) and Pb(II), respectively. The collector adsorption capacity of steel slag increased nearly two magnitudes after modifying with the uptake of Cu(II) or Pb(II) ions. The SEM/EDS, XPS and FTIR analysis indicated that steel slag could be in-situ modified to generate copper or lead hydroxides and oxides during the removal of Cu(II) and Pb(II) ions. Subsequently, these precipitates acted as reactive sites for chelating BX and DDTC to form indissolvable metal-collector chelates. Owing to in-situ modification of steel slag by uptaking metallic ions, the adsorption was potentially feasible for treating flotation wastewaters.

The utilization of waste paper, an obsolete recyclable resource, helps to save resources and protect environment. In this paper, an aerogel was prepared to convert the waste paper into a useful material, which was used to adsorb heavy metal ions and handle water pollution. Combining waste office paper and chitosan, the aerogel obtained the enhanced mechanical strength, acid resistance and high adsorption capacity (up to 156.3 mg/g for Cu 2+ ). This adsorption process obeyed the pseudo-second order model and the Langmuir model. The research showed that a coordination compound was formed between amino group and Cu 2+ during the adsorption process. The adsorbent could be regenerated well in 0.1 M H 2 SO 4 with up to 98.3% desorption efficiency. The low cost, environmental friendliness, excellent adsorption capacity and regeneration ability made this novel aerogel a promising adsorbent for heavy metal ions. And this conversion is an effective reuse way of waste paper too.

A novel dielectrophoresis (DEP)-assisted device for the bioremediation of heavy metal ions by using Chlorella microalgae is presented in this paper. To generate the DEP forces, pairs of electrode mesh were inserted in the DEP-assisted device. By applying DC electric field via the electrodes, the inhomogeneous electric field gradient is induced and the strongest non-uniform electric field exists near the mesh cross-corner. After the adsorption of Cd and Cu heavy metal ions by Chlorella , the Chlorella chain were trapped along the vicinity of the electrode mesh. Then, the effects of Chlorella concentration on the adsorption of heavy metal ions, and the applied voltage and electrode mesh size on the removal of Chlorella are conducted. In the co-existing Cd and Cu solutions, the individual adsorption ratio of Cd and Cu reaches as high as approximately 96% and 98%, respectively, showing excellent bioremediation capability of multiple heavy metal ions in wastewater. By adjusting the applied electric voltage and the mesh size, the Chlorella adsorbed with Cd and Cu are captured by negative DC-DEP effects and the removal ratio of Chlorella reach an average of 97%, providing a method for the removal of multiple heavy metal ions in wastewater by using Chlorella microalgae.

Here we report a Bi/mesoporous carbon modified glass carbon electrode (Bi-MC-GCE) for the detection of heavy metal ions Zn, Cd and Pb. Bi(NO3)3 was firstly entrapped into the holes of MCs by sonicating them together in solution. Then the dispersed mixture was pipetted
onto the surface of GCE and left to dry. Bi(NO3)3 in the holes of MCs was reduced to metallic Bi during the process of deposition for square wave stripping analysis. The obtained Bi-MC-GCE exhibits significantly enhanced sensitivity for Zn, Cd and Pb detection compared
to blank GCE, bismuth or MC alone modified GCE, which is attributed to the high specific surface area of MCs and the increased amount of entrapped bismuth as active sites for the deposition and stripping of heavy metal ions. A linearship is observed for the concentration of Zn, Cd, and Pb
from 10 to 110 ppb. The relative standard deviation was 3.7% for Zn, 3% for Cd and 8% for Pb at the 90 ppb level (n = 3). The suggested Bi-MC-GCE exhibits a potential application for real water sample analysis.

A low-cost, environment-friendly sodium alginate-meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid hybrid aerogel (SA-DMSA) was synthesized by simple chemical grafting and vacuum freeze-drying method and used to remove heavy metal ions in wastewater. The as-prepared SA-DMSA showed high affinity for heavy metal ions, such as Pb 2+ , Cd 2+ , Cu 2+ , Cr 3+ , and Co 2+ , and can remove >90% of the metal ions from the corresponding solution. SA-DMSA also exhibited high selectivity to Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ , and the maximum adsorption capacities for Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ reached 116.4 and 91.2 mg/g, respectively. The SA-DMSA adsorbent can be regenerated by a simple one-step acid washing, and the adsorption performance remained stable after repeated use. Given its low-cost and easy-to-obtain raw materials, simple preparation process, and simple regeneration process of the adsorbent, SA-DMSA has broad application prospects in the treatment of low-concentration heavy metal ions, especially for wastewater containing Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ .

The effective mitigation of the environmental impact of heavy metal remains a significant scientific challenge. In this study, a novel and environmentally friendly approach has been proposed to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) functional composite materials for Pb(II) removal. The easy-to-recycle spherical adsorbent is prepared by the dual utilization of sodium alginate (SA) as a bio-source precursor for the synthesis of carbon dots (CDs) and as a natural framework for the formation of SA hydrogel. The abundant surface-active groups on the SA hydrogel not only provide additional adsorption sites for the aggregation of heavy metal ions but can also be readily cross-linked with CDs without chemical additives, and thereby offering a 3D porous structure for chelating metal ions. The resulting HL-5CDs adsorbent demonstrates an impressive adsorption capacity of 305.21 mg·g −1 for Pb(II). The adsorption mechanism involves both chemical reaction and diffusion, leveraging the porous structure and rich oxygen groups of the material. Notably, a pot experiment revealed that the as-prepared HL-5CDs could inhibit the bioavailability of Pb(II). This study introduces a green and straightforward method for creating high-performance adsorbents, showcasing potential applications in energy, cleaning, and the remediation of wastewater pollution.
