We investigated the adsorption mechanisms for removing fluoride based on experimental and modeling studies. Lanthanum-aluminum perovskite was designed for treating wastewater contaminated by fluoride. A fluorine-species model was developed to calculate the concentrations of different species of fluorine: F − , HF, HF 2 − . Multiple kinetic models were examined and the pseudo-second order model was found the best to fit the experimental data, implying fast-chemisorption. The thermodynamic data were fitted by the Langmuir model and Freundlich model at different temperatures, indicating heterogeneous adsorption at low temperature and homogeneous adsorption at high temperature. The La 2 Al 4 O 9 material had less influence from negative ions when adsorbing fluoride. The adsorption mechanisms were further studied using experiments and Density Functional Theory calculations. The adsorption experiments could be attributed to the lattice plane (1 2 1) and La, O, Al sites. More Al sites were required than La sites for the increase of fluoride concentration. By contrast, more La sites than Al sites were needed for increased pH.

Halloysite/MnFe2O4 nanocomposites have been proposed as a novel material which can be used in magnetic and electromagnetic applications. In this study, we fabricated two kinds of halloysite/MnFe2O4 nanocomposites. The XRD and TEM characterizations
suggested that ferrite nanoparticles were mainly adhered on the outer surface of HNTs (named as WMH) and in the inner wall (MH), respectively. Both MH and WMH were applied to adsorb methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions. The results indicated that both MH and WMH can remove more than
97% MB at a dosage of 2 g L−1 and initial MB concentration of 20 mg L−1. The adsorption processes by both nanocomposites fit pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm with correlation coefficient of >0.99. WMH (19.19 mg g−1)
shows slightly higher maximum adsorption capacity than MH (18.52 mg g−1), contradicts to the fact that the mesopore volume of MH is 30% larger than that of WMH. It can be reconciled by the strong bonding between the outer surface ferrite nanoparticles of WMH and the MB molecules,
which greatly enhanced the MB adsorption capacity. In addition, the dimethylamino groups of MB molecules were preferably removed, suggesting the MB degradation by the ferrite nanoparticles during adsorption. Furthermore, both WMH and MH can be easily magnetic separated and recycled. The MB
removal efficiency can be maintained at after regenerated for 5 times. Ascribed to the advantages of easily recycling and regeneration, low cost, and MB degradation, the halloysite-MnFe2O4 nanocomposites are potential environmental friendly adsorbents for removing organic
pollutants.

In this study, a hydrogel SiO2-g-GMA/β-CD-Ac was synthesized by the free-radical cross-linking polymerization of SiO2-g-GMA/β-CD-Ac, it was then used for the adsorption of metal ions from aqueous solutions. The structure and
properties of SiO2-g-GMA/β-CD-Ac were characterized by FT-IR and SEM. SEM image shows that SiO2-g-GMA/β-CD-Ac composite particles presented spherical morphology. Strongly depended on the pH of the solution, the maximum adsorption
capacity for Cu2+, Pb2+, Cd2+ and Ni2+ were found to be 110.0, 51.02, 15.20, 11.69 mg/g as the pH was 5.5, respectively. Kinetic studies showed that the adsorption process obeys pseudo-second-order rate mechanism and the intra particle diffusion
was not the only rate-limiting step. The equilibrium data were fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm model (R
2 > 0.99), where adsorption was an exothermic and spontaneous process.

A novel magnetic adsorbent (EDTA /chitosan/ PMMS) was facilely prepared by reacting chitosan with EDTA anhydride in presence of PEI - coated magnetic microspheres. The as-synthesized EDTA/ chitosan /PMMS was characterized by XRD, SEM, TGA, FT-IR , and VSM, and then employed in removal of heavy metals of Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The results of the batch adsorption experiments revealed that the adsorbents had extremely high uptake capacities for Pb(II) in the pH range of 2 to 5.5, and the adsorption kinetics for EDTA/ chitosan /PMMS was consistent with the pseudo – second - order kinetic model. Moreover, its equilibrium data were fitted with the Langmuir isothermal model well, which indicated that the adsorption mechanism was a homogeneous monolayer chemisorptions process. The maximum adsorption capacity of EDTA/ chitosan /PMMS for Pb(II) was found to be 210 mg g − 1 at pH 4 (30 ° C), and further reuse experiments results suggested that EDTA /chitosan/ PMMS could be a potential recyclable magnetic adsorbent in the practical wastewater treatment. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Well-defined superparamagnetic and conductive Fe3O4/polyaniline (PANI) hollow spheres were fabricated using positively charged polystyrene (PS) spheres as templates. The negatively charged Fe3O4 particles, which were decorated by citric acid, can be attached onto the surface of the PS spheres via electrostatic interaction. Subsequently, the PANI layer was coated onto the PS/Fe3O4 templates by in situ chemical oxidative polymerization. Finally, removal of the PS core by dissolving with tetrahydrofuran provided the electromagnetic hollow spheres. Morphologies and compositions of Fe3O4/PANI hollow spheres were investigated by using SEM, TEM, FTIR and XRD. Magnetic analysis demonstrates that the synthesized composite spheres possess the characteristic of superparamagnetism and the saturation magnetization value is 26.2 emu g−1. Batch adsorption shows that the Fe3O4/PANI hollow spheres exhibit high uptake property of Pb2+ in aqueous solution. The adsorption kinetics follows the mechanism of pseudo-second-order kinetics and the sorption agrees well with the Langmuir isotherm.

The treatment of dye-bearing wastes by adsorption using low-cost synthetic adsorbents is urgently needed and challenging because it offers the dual benefit of water treatment and waste management. Herein, the flower-like MoS 2 /g-C 3 N 4 nanocomposites with a size range of 200–400 nm and a specific surface area of 70.656 m2/g were synthesized as new methylene blue (MB) adsorbent materials. Their adsorption mechanisms and influences of pH, adsorbent dosage, concentration, and temperature on the adsorption properties were investigated by batch sorption experiments. Adsorption isotherm data were fitted with the Langmuir model, and the adsorption kinetic characteristics conform to the quasi second-order kinetic equation. According to thermodynamic data, methylene blue (MB) adsorption was endothermic and spontaneous, exhibiting a maximum adsorption capacity of 278.4 mg/g at 45 °C. Additionally, the impact of MB effluent on the germination of chickpea and wheat was studied contrastively with treatment of the tested materials. The results indicated that adequate adsorption of flower-like MoS 2 /g-C 3 N 4 nanocomposite could potentially treat wastewater from the textile industry to be used for irrigation and solve the problem of textile effluent disposal.

A new adsorbent l -Arg-CS/Fe 3 O 4 was prepared by l -arginine modifying magnetic chitosan for the removal of Cu(II ) ions from aqueous solution. The compositions of l -Arg-CS/Fe 3 O 4 were characterized by infrared (IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, respectively. The surface morphology, particle size and specific surface area were measured on scanning electron microscope (SEM) and micromeritics gas adsorption surface analyzer. The adsorption behavior of l -Arg-CS/Fe 3 O 4 for Cu(II ) were investigated as a function of pH, contact time and initial Cu(II ) concentration. The maximum adsorption capacity for Cu(II ) was 2.13 mmol g −1 at the optimized adsorption conditions, which were pH = 5.5, t = 13 min, C 0 = 4.0 mmol L −1 . The adsorption behavior was evaluated by the analysis of adsorption kinetics. Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models were used to estimate the adsorption mode. l -Arg-CS/Fe 3 O 4 exhibited high adsorption capability after five regeneration cycles. The adsorption and desorption mechanisms were discussed. The results show that l -Arg-CS/Fe 3 O 4 is a promising adsorbent for removal of Cu(II) from aqueous solutions.

Adsorbents with high selectivity and adsorption capacity are of significant interest for the removal of dye pollutants. Herein, we report a facile low-temperature solvothermal synthesis of clew-like Cu2O/CuO microspheres by using cupric acetate monohydrate as the copper resource and ethylene glycol as the solvent and morphology modulator. The synthesized Cu2O/CuO microspheres showed high selective adsorption to anionic dyes (e.g., methyl orange (MO) and Reactive Red 2 (RR2)) rather than to cationic dyes (e.g., methylene blue (MB), Rhodamine B (RhB)). MO was then selected to evaluate the parameters of adsorption due to the adsorbent exhibiting the highest adsorption capacity for MO. We demonstrate that the adsorption of MO by Cu2O/CuO microspheres has a good correlation with the pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir isotherm with a maximum adsorption capacity of 826.45 mg/g, which is higher than that of previously reported metal oxide material adsorbents. The excellent adsorption ability of clew-like Cu2O/CuO microspheres to MO may be attributed to the synergistic effects of electrostatic attraction, unique hierarchical structure, and crystal defects of the prepared Cu2O/CuO microspheres. We believe our work provides new insight into the synthesis of high-performance adsorbents.

In this study, an efficient adsorption and reusable magnetic ligand material (Fe3O4@Chitosan-EDTA) was synthesized by binding EDTA dianhydride onto magnetic chitosan, and it was employed in removal of Co(II) from aqueous solution. The maximum adsorption capacity of Co(II) onto Fe3O4@CS-EDTA was 48.78 mg/g at pH = 5 (303 K), which is much higher than that of Fe3O4@Chitosan as well as chitosan. The kinetics of Co(II) on the Fe3O4@CS-EDTA was consistent with the pseudo-second-order model. The equilibrium data were better fit with the Langmuir isothermal model than with the Freundlich isothermal model, suggesting that the adsorption mechanism was chemical monolayer homogeneous adsorption. The thermodynamic data showed that the sorption of Co(II) was spontaneous. Furthermore, after four cycles, the adsorption capacity of Co(II) onto the Fe3O4@CS-EDTA still retained 84.5% of the capacity of the fresh adsorbent, indicating that Fe3O4@CS-EDTA can be considered a promising recyclable adsorbent to remove heavy-metal ions from wastewater.

Two functionalized SBA-15 materials were prepared by a post-grafting method using phosphonate derivatives of diethylethylphosphonate (DEP) and ethylphosphonic acid (PA), which were used as adsorbents for removal of uranium(VI) from aqueous solution. These materials were characterized by FT-IR, NMR, TEM, nitrogen adsorption/desorption experiments, and elemental analysis. The effect on uranium(VI) sorption behaviors of the functionalized SBA-15 was studied. Typical sorption isotherms (Langmuir and Freundlich) were determined for the sorption process, and the maximum sorption capacity was calculated. The influence of organic functional groups on uranium(VI) sorption was also discussed. As a result, SBA-15-ethylphosphonic acid (SBA-15-PA) possessed not only a good sorption ability and a desirable selectivity for U(VI) over a range of competing metal ions but also an excellent reusability, which has potential application in separation of uranium(VI).

The carboxyl-modified multiwalled carbon nanotubes were immobilized in chitosan-based composite membranes (CS-CNTs) which were used as efficient sorbents for U(VI) sorption. The incorporation of CNTs in the CS-CNTs membranes improves their mechanical strength as well as U(VI) sorption performance. XPS analysis indicates that both amine and carboxyl groups are responsible for the complexation of U(VI). The sorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second order equation, whereas the sorption isotherms fitted well with Langmuir model ( q m = 126.7 mg g −1 at 298 K). Moreover, the U(VI)-loaded CS-CNT8 can be effectively desorbed by 0.2 M acidified EDTA and reused.

In the present study, the adsorption properties of graphite oxide (GO) for Rhodamine B (RhB) under different conditions was investigated. The specific surface area of the GO adsorbent decreased from 71.5 m 2 g −1 for before adsorption of RhB to 4.9 m 2 g −1 for after adsorption of RhB. The maximum adsorption capacity was 578.0 mg g −1 at 303.15 K. Moreover, the pH value has a great influence on the adsorption properties of GO. The adsorption capacity of GO for RhB increased first and then decreased with the rise of pH value. Study on the adsorption kinetics verified that the adsorption process conformed to the pseudo-second-order model adsorption process. The isothermal model is consistent with the Langmuir isothermal model and belongs to the monolayer chemical adsorption.
