A nanosized zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) was employed for the adsorption of Cr(VI) under a neutral solution. It was discovered that the ZIF-67 demonstrated a high adsorption of Cr(VI) for the first (43.1 mg·g –1 ) and second run (40.2 mg·g –1 ). However, a self-sacrifice process of ZIF-67 was evidenced, possibly due to the oxidability of Cr(VI) and pH change, which resulted in a dramatically decrease of adsorption ability in the third run (16.6 mg·g –1 ). The adsorption process and its kinetics fitted the Langmuir model and pseudo-second-order rate equation and a multiple adsorption process was suggested.

In this work, hollow globular Cr(VI)-adsorbents were successively fabricated via the assembly of tannic acid (TA) and 1, 6-hexanediamine (HA) converting to polymerization using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as precursor. PVA@poly(tannic acid - 1, 6-hexanediamine) (PVA@PTHA) with hollow structure can chelate Cr on their bodies accompanying of reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) caused by phenolic hydroxyl groups, which is proved by means of TEM , XPS , SEM and EDX, etc . Many factors affecting the adsorption of Cr(VI) were studied systematically, i.e. , initial Cr(VI) concentration (20–260 mg/L), contact time (0–48 h), foreign ions (Cu 2+ , Fe 3+ , Mn 2+ ), and pH value (2–7). The adsorption-reduction process followed the Langmuir isotherm model (R 2 = 0.9994) and fitted well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R 2 = 0.9984). Besides, the removal capabilities of PVA@PTHA for Cr(VI) were affected insignificantly by nitrate ion (NO 3 − ) or sulfate ion (SO 4 2− ) as a competitive ion. In brief, PVA@PTHA is low-cost green adsorbent with the maximum adsorption capacity of 434.0 mg/g for Cr(VI)-sewage treatment.

Cr (VI) is a highly toxic pollutant to humans, to achieve high adsorption capacity, easy recovery, and good reusability, polyethersulfone/polydopamine (PES/PDA) ultrafine fibers were prepared successfully. A series of preparing effect factors were investigated systematically and the optimum one is 8.5 pH value at room temperature and 2 g/L dopamine concentration. And then they were used as an adsorbent for the removal of Cr (VI) ions from wastewater. The effect factors pH, the adsorbent dosage, and time were discussed on Cr (VI) adsorption process and the Cr (VI) adsorption behavior was investigated. It is found that the maximum Cr (VI) adsorption capacity is 115.2 ± 4.8 mg/g at pH = 3 using 0.06 g PES/PDA with 80 mins. The Cr (VI) adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order model (r 2 ≥ 0.99) and adsorption isotherms were fitted to the Langmuir model (R 2 ≥ 0.999). Furthermore, the Cr (VI) adsorption mechanism was supposed according to the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic results. Finally, PES/PDA ultrafine fibers were considered to be a promising adsorbent with good stability (decomposing temperature, 356°C), high adsorption efficiency (112.1 ± 2.5 mg/g), and good reusability (three times) on the coexistence of anions and the actual industry wastewater environment.

Constructing 3-D nanomaterial-based adsorbents with good mechanical properties has attracted increasing attention. This paper reports a simple strategy to prepare ultralight and superelastic 3-D aerogels as efficient adsorbents for heavy metal Cr(VI) in wastewater by in-situ loading of polypyrrole on cellulose acetate nanofibers followed by freeze-drying method. The obtained aerogel possesses obvious 3-D porous and cross-linked structure, in which polypyrrole is uniformly coated on the nanofiber surface. Besides, the aerogel shows good mechanical properties with high compressive strength of 14.49 kPa, and can be processed into any desired shape. Especially, due to the presence of large specific surface area and high porosity, the obtained nanofiber aerogel shows significant Cr(VI) adsorption with maximum adsorption capacity of 244.65 mg/g. The present work proposes a high-quality nanofiber aerogel for efficiently adsorbing Cr(VI).

Poly(m-phenylenediamine) (PmPD) is an efficient material for the adsorption of Cr(VI). However, it is facile to aggregate in water, which reduces its adsorption capacity, and it is not facile to be separated from water. Hence, magnetic or membrane structures by compositing PmPD with other functional materials are usually synthesized to solve the above problems. Here, we utilized polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) chains to obtain a dense network structure, which embedded and constrained PmPD into the network to form a membrane. PmPD constrained in the membrane existed stably and was facilely separated from water due to the large size of the membrane. Meanwhile, the PmPD/PVA membranes showed good mechanical properties and combined both the extraordinary adsorption capacity and reusability. In this study, the maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of the composite membrane structures was 498.87 mg g−1 at room temperature. The adsorption and removal mechanism can be explained by the fact that the protonated imine units adsorb Cr(VI) via electrostatic attraction; following this, Cr(VI) changed to Cr(III) by reduction and chelated on the imine units. This study demonstrated that the PmPD/PVA membrane has a great potential for the separation of Cr(VI) from wastewater due to its low-cost and high adsorption capacity.

There are huge demands for the development of green, environmentally friendly, and easily prepared cationic adsorbents for treatment of chromium-contaminated water. In this research, we demonstrate the fabrication of a novel polyvinylamine-grafted polypropylene membrane (PPM-PVAm) for Cr(VI) adsorption. Based on a rapid two-step method, polypropylene membrane (PPM) was grafted with high biomedical safety N-vinylformamide (NVF), and then amino groups were generated via hydrolysis of the poly(N-vinylformamide) (PNVF) and these amino groups could be protonated under acidic condition as Cr(VI) adsorbing sites. The effects of both the PNVF grafting rate and its degree of hydrolysis on the adsorption performance of PPM-PVAm were investigated. The membrane with a PNVF grafting rate around 55% (wt) and a degree of hydrolysis around 70–80% exhibits the best performance for Cr(VI) adsorption under the optimal conditions, i.e. pH 2 at about 40 °C. The adsorption of Cr(VI) on PPM-PVAm matches the Langmuir model, showing a maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of 208.3 mg per gram dry membrane. PPM-PVAm could be deprotonated under alkaline condition so the adsorbed Cr(VI) could be easily removed by NaOH/NaCl aqueous solution. The membrane shows excellent recycling performance, and 90.6% of the adsorption capability remains even after 10 cycles of adsorption-desorption test. Combining the unique performance and eco-friendly process in the fabrication of the membrane, PPM-PVAm shows great potential in adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) from water.

Magnetic red mud/chitosan (MRM/CS) based bionanocomposites were prepared by the neutralization method, and this method had the advantages of simplicity, low-cost and eco-friendly. The adsorbents were characterized by XRD, FTIR and VSM analysis. The effects of various parameters, such as RM addition amounts, pH, concentration, temperature, time and co-existing metal ions, on the adsorption of Cr(VI) were studied. Moreover, adsorption kinetic, isotherm and thermodynamic of the Cr(VI) adsorption were analyzed. The results show that the MRM/CS composite has good recoverability (8.56 emu·g −1 ) and adsorption performance (7.79 mg·g −1 , 303 K, pH = 3). The process of the adsorption reaction conforms to the Langmuir model and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, suggesting that the adsorption of Cr(VI) ions on the surface of CS-based adsorbents are monolayer adsorption and chemisorption. Thermodynamic study reveals that the adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are ideal adsorbents for wastewater treatment and excellent antibacterial agents. In this study, Cu-NH 2 -MOF chitosan composite microspheres were prepared by the in situ method, and the synthesized microspheres solved the disadvantages of poor recoverability of powder adsorbent and complex operation process. Cr(VI) was removed by adsorption, and the microspheres had a good bacteriostatic effect. The synthesized MOF chitosan composite microspheres were systematically characterized. The adsorption kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamic properties were appraised, and influences of adsorption conditions toward Cr(VI) adsorption were studied. The kinetic study demonstrated that the adsorption of Cr(VI) by CS@Cu-MOF-M conformed to the pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption isotherms fit the Sips model, and the maximum adsorption capacity of CS@Cu-MOF-M for Cr(VI) was 159.25 mg/g under optimal conditions. The thermodynamic result showed that the removal of Cr(VI) was a spontaneous endothermic process. The adsorption rate of CS@Cu-MOF-M was still more than 80% of that of the first one after four cycles of regeneration experiments. The antibacterial activity results showed that MOF chitosan composite microspheres had good antibacterial properties with MIC value of 0.2 mg/mL and MBC value of 1 mg/mL. These results demonstrated that the synthesized CS@Cu-MOF-M had a great potential to treat wastewater containing Cr(VI) and bacterial contamination. Graphical Abstract

Cr(VI) pollution severely threatens the water environment and human health. One of the effective ways to solve this problem is to develop environmentally friendly and efficient adsorbents. This paper proposes a highly efficient Cr(VI) adsorbent based on tannic acid coating PVA/PVP/PEI nanofibrous membrane. The adsorbent is environment-friendly and has satisfying water stability and adsorption performance. The optimum preparation conditions, adsorption conditions, and the influence of ionic strength and coexisting ions were investigated comprehensively. Through the study of adsorption kinetics and isotherms, the adsorption of Cr(VI) on the nanofibrous membrane was found following the pseudo-second-order kinetics model, and the adsorption isotherm model following the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacities were 631.97 mg/g, 667.52 mg/g, and 695.04 mg/g at 298 K, 308 K, and 318 K, respectively. After adsorption of Cr(VI), the membrane can be converted to high purity Cr 2 O 3 by calcination. The tannin-coated PVA/PVP/PEI nanofibrous membrane is a promising adsorbent because it can efficiently adsorb Cr(VI) and convert highly toxic Cr(VI) into hypotoxic Cr(III).

Environmental problems caused by Cr(VI) need to be solved urgently. As a green and safe adsorbent, magnesium oxide has the characteristics of strong adsorption capacity and safety, non-toxic and harmless. In this study, high-performance Cr(VI) adsorption material (F-MgO) was prepared by combination hydrothermal modification of recycling MgO and doping of solid waste fly ash with the MgO that was a by-product of high magnesium laterite nickel ore. The adsorption properties of F MgO composites for Cr(VI) were evaluated, and the maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) by F MgO reaches 172.6 mg/g at pH = 2.0. The F-MgO also showed high stability and excellent cycle adsorption performance. The adsorption mechanism was extensively studied by adsorption kinetics and DFT theoretical calculation, and electrostatic adsorption and chemical interaction between Cr(VI) and F MgO active sites were demonstrated. The prepared F MgO composites from waste resources with a simple synthetic method have great potential in the treatment of chrome-containing wastewater to achieve the purpose of treating waste with waste.

Biochar is used as adsorption material for transition metal ions based on its special high surface area. However, the ion adsorption capacity is limited by the inability through the increasing of specific surface area. Three-dimensional hierarchical pore biochar (ASPB) is prepared by pre-carbonization and KOH activation using soybean protein with gelation properties to construct a three-dimensional framework structure of biomass. The saturation level of Cr(VI) adsorption in 250 mg·L −1 Cr(VI) solution is 489.66 mg·g −1 , which is attributed to the ASPB's vast 2788 m 2 ·g −1 surface area and three-dimensional hierarchical pore structure, with pore structure data indicating an empty volume of 1.65 cm 3 ·g −1 and a 2.386 nm size average pore size. The Cr(VI) adsorption level is higher than the calculated saturated capacity according to Langmuir equation based on the specific surface area. The extra adsorption performance is contributed to the transport channels provided by the three-dimensional framework structure, the large and abundant ion riveting sites provided by micro-mesopores, and the redox and complexation of surface-active groups. The saturated adsorption capacity can keep 86.6 % after three adsorption–desorption cycles.

The high pathogenicity to organisms and high destructiveness in the natural environment determine the utmost importance of removing Cr(VI) from water. Herein, thiourea crosslinked-amino modified graphene nanoflakes (TAGN) was prepared by simple ring opening reaction and silanization reaction and the Cr(VI) adsorption performance was investigated. Results manifested that TAGN presented three-dimensional porous structure with abundant folds and avoided agglomeration. The adsorption experiments indicated that the optimal test pH value was 2 and the most suitable adsorbent dosage was 1 g/L. Under the optimum adsorption conditions, TAGN exhibited an outstanding adsorption capacity of 193.77 mg/g for Cr(VI) in water. Various characterizations and tests such as Zeta potential , FTIR, XPS as well as isotherms and kinetics revealed that the adsorption of TAGN for Cr(VI) was more consistent with Freundlich isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model , confirming a multilayer chemisorption process dominated by multiple combination mechanisms: electrostatic interaction, reduction reaction, complexation and hydrogen bonding interaction. Under the condition of coexistence of multiple metal ions , the TAGN could still maintain superb selectivity of 63.9% towards Cr(VI). After ten cycling test, 81.8% removal efficiency of Cr(VI) was guaranteed. Therefore, TAGN possessed high adsorption capacity , excellent selectivity and prominent cyclic regeneration ability. This work provided a promising nanosorbent for the field of water cleaning, especially for the elimination of heavy metal ions .
