In this study, straw biochar (TB) was prepared by pyrolysis at 500 °C, and biochar composite material (TBS) was prepared by a 1:4 mass ratio with sludge (TS). Scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were utilized to characterize the material before and after adsorption. The results demonstrated that TBS possesses significant pore structure characteristics and abundant active functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and carbonyl groups, providing a structural basis for its efficient adsorption of heavy metal ions in aqueous solutions. The adsorption performance of the remediation materials for Cu(II) and Pb(II) in aqueous solution was systematically investigated. Experimental data showed that TBS achieved maximum adsorption capacities of 60.86 and 46.98 mg/g for Cu(II) and Pb(II) at equilibrium, respectively, exhibiting superior adsorption efficiency. Through fitting analysis using adsorption kinetic models and isothermal adsorption models, it was found that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Freundlich isothermal model could more accurately describe the adsorption process of the two heavy metal ions, indicating that chemical adsorption was the dominant mechanism and characterized by multilayer adsorption. Thermodynamic parameter calculations revealed negative ΔG values and positive ΔH and ΔS values, suggesting that the adsorption process was a spontaneous, entropy-increasing, and endothermic reaction. These research results fully validate the excellent removal capabilities of TBS for Cu(II) and Pb(II). This study has shown that TBS can be considered a promising and cost-effective adsorbent, demonstrating its potential to adsorb heavy metal ions in water.

Amino-functionalized graphene oxide (GO-NH 2 ) was synthesized by grafting (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane on the graphene oxide (GO) surface. The GO-NH 2 with high surface area and numerous active sites can efficiently adsorb Cr(VI), Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cd(II) ions. The maximum adsorption capacities of GO-NH 2 for Cr(VI), Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cd(II) were 280.11, 26.25, 71.89 and 10.04 mg g −1 , respectively. The pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models were employed to describe the kinetic processes. The experimental data agreed well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation, and the adsorption of heavy metals onto GO-NH 2 occurs via chemical adsorption. The characteristics of Cr(VI), Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cd(II) in the GO-NH 2 adsorption processes were analyzed using the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The adsorption processes of Pb(II) and Cd(II) on GO-NH 2 were fit by the Langmuir model. The Freundlich isotherm model was well correlated to Cr(VI) and Cu(II). The GO-NH 2 is a promising material for the removal of heavy metal ions from industrial wastewater. This study provides an effective pathway to process industrial wastewater, and the GO-NH 2 has a good adsorption effect for the treatment of heavy metals in industrial wastewater.

A novel nanocomposite based on black wattle (BW) tannin and nanocellulose was prepared and applied in heavy metal ions adsorptive removal from aqueous solutions. Firstly, nanocrystalline cellulose was oxidized by sodium periodate to get dialdehyde nanocellulose (DANC). BW tannin was then covalently immobilized onto DANC, which was used as both the matrix and crosslinker, to obtain tannin-nanocellulose (TNCC) composite. The resulting nanocomposite was characterized using FTIR, AFM, and TG. The successful immobilization was confirmed by the chromogenic reaction between FeCl 3 and TNCC and FT-IR analysis. AFM images revealed that TNCC was ellipsoidal particles with lengths ranging from 100–400 nm. Zeta potential measurement showed that TNCC was negative charged at a pH range from 1–12. Compared to the original tannin, the thermal stability of TNCC was slightly increased by the addition of nanocellulose. TNCC demonstrated the maximum adsorption efficiency at pH 2 for Cr(VI) and pH 6 for Cu(II) and Pb(II), respectively. The adsorption for these three metal ions followed pseudo second-order kinetics, indicating the chemisorption nature. The adsorption isotherms all fitted well with the Sips model, and the calculated maximum adsorption capacities were 51.846 mg g −1 , 53.371 mg g −1 and 104.592 mg g −1 for Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cr (VI), respectively.

Various carbon nanomaterials for use in anodic stripping voltammetric analysis of Hg(II), Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cd(II) are screened. Graphene, carbon nanotubes, carbon nanofibers and fullerene (C 60 ), dispersed in chitosan (Chit) aqueous solution, are used to modify a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The fullerene-chitosan modified GCE (C 60 -Chit/GCE) displays superior performance in terms of simultaneous determination of the above ions. The electrodes and materials are characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The excellent performance of C 60 -Chit/GCE is attributed to the good electrical conductivity, large surface area, strong adsorption affinity and unique crystalline structure of C 60 . Using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry, the assay has the following features for Hg(II), Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cd(II), respectively: (a) Peak voltages of +0.14, −0.11, −0.58 and − 0.82 V (vs SCE); (b) linear ranges extending from 0.01–6.0 μM, 0.05–6.0 μM, 0.005–6.0 μM and 0.5–9.0 μM; and (c), detection limits (3σ method) of 3 nM (0.6 ppb), 14 nM (0.9 ppb), 1 nM (0.2 ppb) and 21 nM (2.4 ppb). Moreover, the modified GCE is well reproducible and suitable for long-term usage. The method was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of these ions in spiked foodstuff.
Compared with graphene, carbon nanotubes and carbon nanofibers, an electrode modified with fullerene in chitosan electrode displays superior performance for the simultaneous anodic stripping voltammetric detection of Hg(II), Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cd(II).

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.

Eco-friendly adsorbents for removing heavy metals from wastewater are urgently needed. This work fabricated an amidoxime-modified polypropylene (PP) fiber as a cost-effective and recyclable adsorbent to remove heavy metals. The laboratory study aimed to evaluate the competitive adsorption of Cu(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II) onto AO-PP fiber in aqueous solutions. The adsorption isothermal data fitted the Langmuir isotherm well, and the maximum adsorption capacities (mg/g) were in the order of Cu (47.23)>Pb (45.64)>Zn (37.78) when applying the Langmuir isotherm at pH 5.0. Adsorption equilibrium could be reached within 90 min. The adsorption was pH-dependent and followed the pseudo-second-order model well. The adsorption can be explained by the coordination between N- and O-containing groups and the metallic ions. Metallic ion affinity, steric hindrance , and covalent index were the main factors affecting the competitive adsorption behavior. Regeneration experiments revealed that the obtained adsorbent maintained favorable adsorption capacity even after 20 cycles. Cement mortars incorporating the metal-adsorbed fiber exhibited improved mechanical properties and satisfactory leaching performance. This work experimentally validated the effective use of AO-PP fiber to capture heavy metals from wastewater as well as subsequent sequestration of the recycled fibers in a suitable material matrix , providing a new reference for heavy metal harvesting and final disposal.

A novel multiple active sites cellulose-based adsorbent (MCC/TEPAA-BCTTC) with a high density of multiple active adsorption sites (N, O, S) was prepared by using epichlorohydrin cross-linking microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) with tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA), followed by grafting with bis(carboxymethyl) trithiocarbonate (BCTTC). It was shown that the removal rates of MCC/TEPAA-BCTTC for Pb(II) (1 mg/L), Cu(II) (3 mg/L) and Cr(VI) (1 mg/L) reached 100 %, 98 % and 99 %, respectively, and the remaining concentration after adsorption reached the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) standards for Pb(II) and Cu(II) and the China integrated wastewater discharge standard for Cr(VI). These results indicate that the high removal rate of MCC/TEPAA-BCTTC for removing anionic and cationic heavy metal ions in low-concentration mixed heavy metal ions environments was mainly due to the high density of multiple adsorption sites that act via multiple cooperative mechanisms.

A novel xanthate-modified chitosan/poly( N -isopropylacrylamide) (X-CS/NIPAAm) composite hydrogel was fabricated by a facile two-step method for the selective adsorption of Cu(II), Pb(II) and Ni(II) metal ions from aqueous solutions. The equilibrium adsorption data fitted well to the Langmuir model and the adsorption kinetic data followed the pseudo-second-order model. The maximum equilibrium adsorption capacities of composite hydrogel to Cu(II), Pb(II) and Ni(II) at 293 K were about 115.1, 172.0 and 66.9 mg g −1 , respectively. The thermodynamics parameters showed that the adsorption processes to Cu(II), Pb(II) and Ni(II) were spontaneous and exothermic. The interactions between metal ions for multi-components systems were evaluated by the values of Q b /Q s and Q t /Q s . The adsorption mechanism was analyzed by XPS spectra and the Hard–Soft, Acids–Bases (HSAB) theory. The X-CS/NIPAAm composite hydrogel could be regenerated and repeatedly utilized at least five cycles without obvious adsorption capacity loss.

Polydopamine-Functionalized graphene oxide (PDA-GO) was used to form Polyvinyl Alcohol/Chitosan/PDA-GO (PVA/CS/PDA-GO) hydrogels. FTIR, TGA and SEM investigation showed that PDA had been successfully loaded on graphene oxide nanosheets. Adsorption of metal ions onto the novel PVA/CS/PDA-GO hydrogel beads with variations in pH, contact time, initial metal concentration and temperature had been investigated. Adsorption data were well accurately described by Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic model at the optimum pH 5.5. The maximum adsorption capacities of the PVA/CS/PDA-GO were 210.94 mg·g −1 , 236.20 mg·g −1 and 214.98 mg·g −1 for Cu(II), Pb(II) and Cd(II) ions with 40 C, respectively. Meanwhile, desorption efficiency and reusability of the adsorbents were assessed on basis of six consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles. This work provides a simple and environmentally friendly method to obtain the PVA/CS/PDA-GO hydrogel beads, which really would be a potential recyclable adsorbent for removal of hazardous metal ions in waste water.
