Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were treated by reflux oxidation in a mixture (HNO 3 and H 2 SO 4 ), hydroxyl (–OH) and carboxyl (–COOH) functional groups were introduced on the surface of MWCNTs to obtain the Oxidized-MWCNTs (OMWCNTs). OMWCNTs were used as adsorbent to removal of Pb(II) from wastewater. The effects of contact time, initial concentration of Pb(II), OMWCNTs dosage, pH and coexisting ions (K + , Na + , Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ ) on the adsorption and removal of Pb(II) by OMWCNTs were systematically studied. The adsorption of Pb(II) by OMWCNTs could reach equilibrium in 10 min. The pH > 5 is conductive to the adsorption of Pb(II) by OMWCNTs. The coexisting ions (K + , Na + , Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ ) had almost no effect on the adsorption of Pb(II) by OMWCNTs. The results showed that the isothermal data fit the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models. The maximum adsorption capacity was 558.66 mg/g for Pb(II) from Langmuir isotherm. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model could well describe the adsorption process of Pb(II).

Graphical The adsorption capacity of Pb(II) ion for accordion-like Ti 3 CN Mxene is significantly increased after alkalization treatment. The maximum adsorption capacity of the alkalized Ti 3 CN MXene is up to 87.4 mg ⋅ g −1 , and the adsorption ratio reaches 96.6 %. The adsorption process is mainly controlled by chemical adsorption and belongs to surface monolayer adsorption. The presence of poisonous Pb(II) ions in water resources has raised global health concerns. Herein, the adsorption performance of accordion-like Ti 3 CN MXene for Pb(II) ions was investigated for the first time. Batch experiments were carried out by varying modifications, pH values, initial Pb(II) concentrations, adsorption time and temperatures. The results prove that the alkalized-Ti 3 CN shows enhanced adsorption performance. Although the temperature effect is insignificant, the Pb(II) adsorption is strongly pH-dependent. The maximum Pb(II) adsorption capacity of alkalized −Ti 3 CN is about 2.5 times higher than that of activated carbon. The adsorption ratio of Pb(II) is up to 96.6 %. The adsorption capacity increases with increasing the initial concentration of Pb(II). The alkalized-Ti 3 CN adsorbs Pb(II) very quickly and the adsorption equilibrium is nearly achieved within 70 minutes. The adsorption follows the quasi-second-order kinetic model as well as the Langmuir model, and is mainly controlled by chemical adsorption. It is preliminarily concluded that Pb(II) replaces Na(I) of the −ONa functional groups on the alkalized-Ti 3 CN surfaces. This study proves the alkalized-Ti 3 CN MXene has potential application for the purification treatment of wastewater contaminated with Pb(II) ions.

Enhanced stability and prolonged reactivity of nanoparticles are critical factors for successful applications of the nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) technology. In this work, g-C 3 N 4 was employed as a support for distributing, stabilizing nZVI and further changing the composition, microstructure and electronic structure of nZVI due to the interactions between the iron nanoparticles and g-C 3 N 4 sheet. Adjusting the micro-structure of nZVI to enhance the adsorption ability, control the electron transfer, shift IEP negatively, and improve the reactivities and stabilities coordinatively results in stabilized and long-term effective g-nZVI. For example, the accumulated wastewater (i.e., [Pb(II)] = 10 mg/L) treatment volume with g-nZVI in 5 runs is determined to be 50 L, more than twice the treatment capacity of bare nZVI. Besides, more Pb(II) is reduced to metallic Pb by g-nZVI than that by nZVI. Characterizations with spherical-aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (Cs-STEM) integrated with X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS), electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), Raman spectroscopy, etc. visualize and quantitatively analyze the structural differences and distinctive reactive behaviors of nZVI and g-nZVI. The N-containing functional groups efficiently capture aqueous metal cations, accelerate mass transfer and electron transport from the iron core to surface-attached metal ions. In addition, the nZVI micro-structure change and the formation of covalent bonds between the lone-pair electron of nitrogen and empty orbital of iron apparently reduced the iron corrosion. Results provide direct evidence on the interface chemistry of g-nZVI and further verify the graphitic carbon nitride induces the Pb(II) ions to be deposited, reduced and grown onto iron nanoparticles.

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.

Nanoporous adsorbents of ZnO/ZnFe2O4/C were synthesized by using a metal organic framework (FeIII-modified MOF-5) as both the precursor and the self-sacrificing template. The adsorption properties of ZnO/ZnFe2O4/C toward Pb(II) ions were investigated, including the pH effect, adsorption equilibrium and adsorption kinetics. The adsorption isotherms and kinetics were well described by using the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order model, respectively. The MOF-derived inorganic adsorbents exhibited high absorption performance with a maximum adsorption capacity of 344.83 mg g−1. X-ray powder diffraction and high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy suggest that Zn(II) was substituted by a significant portion of Pb(II) on the surface of ZnO nanocrystals. Microscopic observations also demonstrate the effect of Pb(II) ions on ZnO crystals as reflected by the considerably reduced average particle size and defective outer layer. Quantitative measurement of the released Zn(II) ions and the adsorbed Pb(II) ions indicated a nearly linear relationship (R2 = 0.977). Moreover, Pb-containing ZnO/ZnFe2O4/C adsorbents are strongly magnetic allowing their separation from the water environment by an external magnet.

A simple, inexpensive, fast, and visual distance-based paper analytical device has been developed for on-site detection of Pb(II). Pb(II) can inhibit the catalytic activity of G-quadruplex/hemin (G4/hemin) DNAzyme induced by K + , which catalyzes 3,3,5,5-tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) immobilized on paper to produce a visible blue band. The factors affecting Pb(II) detection have been optimized with PS concentration of 3 μM, K + concentration of 10 mM, and hemin concentration of 10 μM, as well as the straight channel width of 2.0 mm. It can be well found that the formed length correlates with the concentration of Pb(II) with a linear detection range of 0.02 μM − 50 μM. A fitting linear equation of Y = 20.793–5.391Log C (R 2 = 0.9788) can be obtained with a lowest detection limit of 1 nM. Additionally, the method is capable of selectively detecting Pb(II) and works well for Pb(II) detection in real samples. Overall, the visual distance-based paper analytical device offers an ideal platform for on-site detection of heavy metal ions, especially in resource-limited areas.

Silica nanoparticles have been functionalized by click chemistry and atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) simultaneously. First, the silanized silica nanoparticles were modified with bromine end group, and then the azide group was grafted onto the surface via covalent coupling. 3-Bromopropyl propiolate was synthesized, and then the synthesized materials were used to react with azide-modified silica nanoparticles via copper-mediated click chemistry and bromine surface-initiated ATRP. Transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis were performed to characterize the functionalized silica nanoparticles. We investigated the enrichment efficiency of bare silica and poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate (PEGMA)-functionalized silica nanoparticles in Pb(II) aqueous solution. The results demonstrated that PEGMA-functionalized silica nanoparticles can enrich Pb(II) more quickly than pristine silica nanoparticles within 1 h.

Melamine sponge (MS) with open three-dimensional porous structure is regarded to be an ideal substrate to prepare monolithic adsorbents for heavy metal ions removal. However, most of the existing surface modification strategies of MS are still difficult to achieve a satisfactory adsorption ability for Pb(II). In this study, tannic acid (TA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) were alternatively deposited on the framework of MS via layer-by-layer covalent assembly between polyphenols of TA and amine groups of PEI. The morphology, molecular structure, and overall properties of the obtained multilayer-decorated MS materials (PEI-TA) n -MS were characterized using SEM, XPS, FT-IR, and TGA . (PEI-TA) 2 -MS was demonstrated to be extremely stable and exhibited excellent adsorption behavior for Pb(II). The maximum Pb(II) adsorption capacity reached 257.4 mg/g at pH value of 5.0 and initial Pb(II) concentration of 200 mg/L. It is better than those of previous reported PEI-based adsorbents under similar conditions. The kinetic and isotherm data revealed that such process is exothermic, and well fits the Langmuir isotherm and the pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The present PEI-TA-based layer-by-layer assembly strategy may offer new prospects for the versatile design of other monolithic adsorbent materials.

Lead (Pb) bioaccumulation in aquatic ecosystems poses significant threats to environmental health and human safety. To address the urgent need for efficient and operationally simple adsorbents for aqueous Pb(II) removal, this study presents the development of novel biomass adsorbents, specifically xanthate-modified Auricularia auricula (XAAS), Pleurotus ostreatus (XPOS) and Flammulina velutipes (XFVS), for the rapid and selective removal of Pb(II) ions from aqueous solutions. These materials were synthesized via a straightforward xanthate modification followed by lyophilization, optimizing conditions to balance cost-effectiveness and adsorption performance. Structural characterization revealed a three-dimensional macroporous architecture in all adsorbents, enabling rapid solid-liquid separation through simple filtration. Kinetic studies revealed that Pb(II) removal by XAAS, XPOS and XFVS was predominantly chemisorption-driven, reaching equilibrium within 15 min. Langmuir isotherm modeling determined maximum adsorption capacities of 190.48, 161.03 and 170.94 mg/g, respectively, showing minimal temperature dependence. Competitive adsorption experiments established Pb(II) selectivity following the inhibition sequence: Cr(III) > Cu(II) > Cd(II) > Tl(I). Mechanistic studies identified ion exchange, surface complexation and microprecipitation as primary removal pathways. Notably, xanthate hydrolysis within the adsorbent matrices facilitated the formation of PbS and Pb 3 (CO 3 ) 2 (OH) 2 nanoparticles. In simulated Pb(II)-contaminated Pearl River water, the adsorbents achieved >86% removal at 34.11 mg/L Pb(II) and complete elimination (100%) at trace levels (0.41 mg/L). These fungal-derived adsorbents exhibited comparable structural properties and Pb(II) removal performance. Their combination of high adsorption capacity, rapid kinetics, selectivity and simple synthesis underscores strong potential for practical remediation of heavy-metal-polluted surface waters.

Magnetic fibers are ideal adsorbent material, the fibers have large aspect ratio, entangled with each other, do not agglomerate in water, magnetic materials can be magnetically separated, so magnetic fibers have the advantage of not agglomerating in water, easy to separate, more suitable for use as an adsorbent. The most commonly used methods for preparing NiFe 2 O 4 fibers were direct electrospinning and surface loading. Whether using NiFe 2 O 4 as a filler for direct electrospinning or loading it onto fibers, there are issues with limited NiFe 2 O 4 content and uneven loading. Compared to commonly used direct electrospinning and surface loading, we developed a simple sol–gel method to prepare the precursor spinning solution, then prepared the magnetic NiFe 2 O 4 fibers with excellent flexibility through electrospinning, and applied it to the adsorption of Pb (II) for the first time. The spinning solution was synthesized using iron sources, nickel sources and citric acid, the iron and nickel ions coordinated with carboxyl group according to the monodentate coordination. The flexible NiFe 2 O 4 fibers exhibited a saturation magnetization of 18.2 emu/g. Specific surface area of the flexible NiFe 2 O 4 fibers was 13.443 m 2 /g and total pore volume of the magnetic NiFe 2 O 4 fibers was 0.074 cm 3 /g. In the adsorption experiment, The NiFe 2 O 4 fibers demonstrated a maximum Pb(II) adsorption capacity of 49.53 mg/g. Due to the self-supporting and non-agglomeration advantages of the fiber structure in solution and the maximum adsorption capacity of the NiFe 2 O 4 fibers synthesized in this study for Pb(II) exceeded that of most previously reported NiFe 2 O 4 adsorbents. Flexible magnetic fibers provided a new solution for simultaneously improving the adsorption capacity of pollutant and achieving rapid magnetic separation, becoming another new material for expanding applications in the field of wastewater treatment.

In this study, a novel lignin-based magnetic composite with a shell-and-core structure and high saturated magnetic strength has been developed for the efficient removal of Pb(II) from wastewater. The adsorbent was fabricated through the introduction of silica–amino groups and a cross-linking complex with lignin, utilizing Fe-Fe2O3as a magnetic source. The paramagnetic characteristics enabled its rapid separation from the aqueous solution within merely 15 s. Batch adsorption experiments demonstrated that the adsorbents could reach equilibrium for Pb(II) adsorption within 30 min. When the concentration of Pb(II) is in the low range of 0 to 200 mg/L, the removal rate of Pb(II) approaches 100%, and the theoretical maximum adsorption capacity is as high as 384.2 mg/g. The mechanism analysis indicated that the adsorption process was primarily characterized as monolayer chemisorption. Notably, the resultant bio-composites demonstrated a high level of stability even after eight consecutive adsorption and desorption cycles, with the removal rate of Pb(II) still reaching 82.3%. This work outlines a novel approach for designing highly efficient lignin-derived adsorbents toward wastewater treatment.

Thermo-responsive materials represent a novel class of functional materials capable of reversible swelling, contraction, or phase transition in response to environmental temperature changes, demonstrating vast potential in environmental remediation. This study successfully synthesized a composite hydrogel with interpenetrating network structure, using sodium alginate (SA) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as the matrix, and incorporating the thermo-sensitive polymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM). The SCP composite gel enables controlled adsorption and release of Pb(II) through temperature-dependent regulation of surface hydrophilicity. At lower temperatures, hydrophilic groups are exposed on the material surface, resulting in a high Pb(II) adsorption capacity of up to 311 mg g −1 . When the temperature exceeds the lower critical solution temperature (LCST), a conformational transition occurs, leading to the concealment of hydrophilic groups and subsequent release of adsorbed Pb(II). This tunable approach ensures superior regeneration performance of the material. The reliability of the experimental data was further validated by fitting with isothermal adsorption models and kinetic models. This study has shown that SCP composite hydrogel is a cost-effective and highly efficient adsorbent for Pb(II), holding significant application value in the treatment of heavy metal wastewater.
