Pb(II) ions are highly harmful to the environment and human health because of their bioaccumulation, non-degradability and toxicity. Herein, we fabricated mesoporous carbonated hydroxyapatite (HAP)/chitosan (CS) porous materials (MHCMs) by using calcium carbonate/CS porous materials (CCPMs) as precursors. After soaking in phosphate buffer solution (PBS), the CaCO3 particles in the CCPMs were converted to carbonated HAP plates with a preferred c-plane orientation via a dissolution–precipitation reaction. The MHCMs possessed interconnected macropores with pore sizes of 50–150 μm and mesopores with pore sizes of 3.97 nm, which caused them to have a great BET surface area of 111.3 m2 g−1 and a pore volume of 0.199 cm3 g−1. The sorption performance of the MHCMs for Pb(II) ions was evaluated by the flow of 400 mg L−1 lead solutions through the adsorbents, and HAP/CS porous materials (HCPMs) served as control samples. After adsorbing Pb(II) ions, the HAP particles in both the MHCMs and HCPMs were transferred into lead hydroxyapatite (PbHAP) rods. At the adsorption equilibrium, the adsorption amounts of the MHCMs and HCPMs arrived at 559.6 and 264.4 mg g−1, respectively. The MHCMs had better adsorption properties than the HCPMs because of their large surface area, hierarchically porous structures, low Ca/P ratio, good degradability and plate-like carbonated HAP with a preferred c-plane orientation. The adsorption of Pb(II) ions on MHCMs exhibited higher compliance with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model than the pseudo-first-order kinetic model, suggesting that the adsorption process was mainly controlled by chemical adsorption for Pb(II) ions. Therefore, the MHCMs have great potential for the removal of Pb(II) ions from aqueous solutions even under flow conditions.

As a kind of earth-abundant and cheap natural clay mineral, palygorskite (Pal) was facilely modified by grafting with graphene oxide (GO) to fabricate GO/Pal composites for rapid removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solutions. The results of characterization confirmed that the GO/Pal composites were successfully grafted between GO sheets and Pal nanorods. The effects of pH, adsorbent dosage, adsorption time, initial Pb(II) concentration and temperature on the adsorption of Pb(II) onto the GO/Pal composites as adsorbents were systematically investigated. The maximum adsorption capacity over 106.6 mg/g was obtained within a short adsorption time of less than 1 h even at 298.15 K. The adsorption of Pb(II) was a fast process that more accurately followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. This process also could be described better with the Langmuir equation model than the Freundlich model. The negative values of Δ G ° and the positive values of Δ H ° and Δ S ° indicated that it was a spontaneous, endothermic and entropy-increasing adsorption process. Compared with pristine Pal and GO powders, such the GO/Pal composites as a cost-efficient and eco-friendly adsorbents could significantly improve the adsorption properties of Pb(II) and would have potential application in the industrial wastewater treatment for rapid removal of Pb(II).

Metakaolin-based geopolymer was investigated as absorbent to remove Cu(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The effects of adsorbent quantity, pH, contact time, and initial concentration of Cu(II)/Pb(II) in solutions were investigated. Furthermore, kinetics and isothermal adsorption were fitted by using equations. Kinetic adsorption of Cu(II) and Pb(II) fitted well to pseudo-second-order model. The isothermal adsorption of two heavy metals by the metakaolin-based geopolymer fitted well with Langmuir isotherm adsorption model. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacities were found to be 178.6 mg/g (2.79 mmol/g) and 312.5 mg/g (1.51 mmol/g) for Cu(II) and Pb(II), respectively. Results clearly showed that the adsorption of metal ions on geopolymer was accompanied by ion exchange. Low-cost, convenient, and effective adsorption of Cu(II) and Pb(II) make metakaolin-based geopolymers potential candidates for heavy metal removal in wastewater treatment.

Heavy metal contamination in aquatic environments represents a critical global threat to water resource security. In this study, polyaniline/zinc oxide (PANI/ZnO) composites doped with hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid were successfully synthesized to overcome the instability of composites resulting from the rapid dissolution of ZnO under low-pH conditions. Batch static adsorption experiments were performed, and both adsorption kinetic and isotherm models were systematically fitted to elucidate the adsorption behavior. The sulfuric acid-doped PANI/ZnO (PANI-SO 4 /ZnO) exhibited a considerably higher adsorption capacity of 396.5 mg g −1 compared with the hydrochloric acid-doped composite (PANI-Cl/ZnO, 297.1 mg g −1 ). This enhanced performance was attributed to the abundant adsorption sites in PANI-SO 4 /ZnO and the chemical precipitation mechanism involving Pb 2+ . The experimental results aligned well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm model (typical thermodynamic isotherm models), indicating that chemisorption and heterogeneous surface interactions governed the adsorption process. In cyclic and dynamic adsorption tests, PANI-Cl/ZnO displayed better reusability and mass-transfer stability. This variation originated from the irreversible formation of PbSO 4 precipitates in PANI-SO 4 /ZnO, which hindered regeneration, whereas Cl – in PANI-Cl/ZnO contributed to preserving the composite’s structural integrity. Although PANI-SO 4 /ZnO is suitable for short-term, rapid treatment of high-concentration Pb 2+ wastewater, its recyclability is restricted by the irreversibility of precipitation. In contrast, the high stability and effective mass transfer of PANI-Cl/ZnO render it an ideal material for continuous industrial wastewater treatment systems requiring long-term operation.

In this study, EDTA-functionalized Fe 3 O 4 (Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -EDTA) was prepared by silanization reaction between N-(trimethoxysilylpropyl) ethylenediamine triacetic acid (EDTA-silane) and hydroxyl groups for Pb(II) and Cu(II) removal from aqueous solutions. Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -EDTA composites were characterized using SEM, TEM, EDX, FTIR, XPS, TGA and saturated magnetization techniques. Maximum Pb(II) adsorption capacity was found to be 114.94 mg g −1 with SiO 2 /EDTA molar ratio of 2.5:1. The adsorption rate was significantly fast and the equilibrium was reached within 10 min. The optimum pH was recorded to be 5.0. The maximum adsorption capacity of the studied heavy metal ions calculated by Langmuir model followed the order: Cu(II) (0.58 mmol g −1 ) > Pb(II) (0.55 mmol g −1 ) ≈ Ni(II) (0.55 mmol g −1 ) > Cd(II) (0.45 mmol g −1 ). Moreover, Pb(II) and Cu(II) adsorption capacities were not significantly affected by co-existing cations and NOM. These results suggested that this adsorbent can be considered as a promising adsorbent to remove Pb(II) and Cu(II) from wastewaters.

As one of the most toxic heavy metal ions, lead pollution has become an urgent problem. Here, a cubic crystal nanoparticle (Prussian blue analogue, PBA), referred to as potassium manganese ferrocyanide (KMFC) was synthesized and used as a highly-effective sorbent for removing Pb(II) from aqueous solution. KMFC is a mesoporous material that has excellent ion exchange properties, which was confirmed by a series of characterizations. This paper investigated the adsorptive attributes of KMFC for lead ions in aqueous solution. The influences of temperature, contact time and pH on adsorption were studied in batch experiments. The KMFC possessed a robust adsorption capacity for resident lead ions in aqueous solution, which attained 1075.27 mg g −1 at room temperature (25 °C), based on the Langmuir model, which was far higher than any previously reported values. The adsorption process was well fitted to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, as well as Langmuir and Temkin isotherm models, and was endothermic and spontaneous on the basis of thermodynamic analysis. The adsorption of Pb(II) on the surface of KMFC started with electrostatic attraction, due to the electronegativity of KMFC. Further, ion exchange was the dominant mechanism in this adsorption process, which was confirmed by FTIR, XPS, and other supplementary experiments. The good chemisorption (K + exchange) properties of KMFC suggested that it likely has excellent prospects in applications for heavy metal ions adsorption. This study not only provided a new perspective for the design and development of heavy metal sorbents but provided a deep insight into the mechanism of adsorption of heavy metal ions by PBA.

A facile one-step co-precipitation method was demonstrated to fabricate amorphous sulfur-containing calcium phosphate (SCP) nanoparticles, in which the sulfur group was in-situ introduced into calcium phosphate. The resulting SCP exhibited a noticeable enhanced performance for Pb(II) removal in comparison with hydroxyapatite (HAP), being capable of easily reducing 20 ppm of Pb(II) to below the acceptable standard for drinking water within less than 10 min. Remarkably, the saturated removal capacities of Pb(II) on SCP were as high as 1720.57 mg/g calculated by the Langmuir isotherm model, exceeding largely that of the previously reported absorbents. Significantly, SCP displayed highly selective removal ability toward Pb(II) ions in the presence of the competing metal ions (Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II)). Further investigations indicated that such ultra-high removal efficiency and preferable affinity of Pb(II) ions on SCP may be reasonably ascribed to the formation of rod-like hydroxypyromorphite crystals on the surface of SCP via dissolution-precipitation and ion exchange reactions, accompanied by the presence of lead sulfide precipitates. High removal efficiency, fast removal kinetics and excellent selectivity toward Pb(II) made the obtained SCP material an ideal candidate for Pb(II) ions decontamination in practical application.

In the work, sulfhydryl functionalized montmorillonite nanosheets based hydrogel balls were firstly synthesized for Pb(II) adsorption, and then characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), surface area analyzer (BET), thermogravimetry (TG), and zeta potential . Effects of initial solution pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time, temperature on Pb(II) adsorption of the resulting hydrogel balls were investigated systematically. The experimental results showed that the increase amount of sulfhydryl functionalized montmorillonite nanosheets (MMTNs-SH) maintained the hydrogel balls a better porous structure and bigger specific surface area, endowing it a bigger adsorption capacity. The adsorption process was fitted well with pseudo-second-order kinetics model and Freundlich model, and more than 97% of Pb(II) could be removed under the optimum conditions. Moreover, hydrogel spheres have a certain cycle performance. In addition, the interactions between Pb(Ⅱ) ions and the oxygen atoms in the hydroxyl groups and the sulfur atoms in the sulfhydryl groups, and the ion exchange in MMTNs-SH dominated the adsorption.

The ability to remove toxic heavy metals, such as Pb(II), from the environment is an important objective from both human-health and ecological perspectives. Herein, we describe the fabrication of a novel carboxymethylcellulose-coated metal organic material (MOF-5–CMC) adsorbent that removed lead ions from aqueous solutions. The adsorption material was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We studied the functions of the contact time, pH, the original concentration of the Pb(II) solution, and adsorption temperature on adsorption capacity. MOF-5–CMC beads exhibit good adsorption performance; the maximum adsorption capacity obtained from the Langmuir isotherm-model is 322.58 mg/g, and the adsorption equilibrium was reached in 120 min at a concentration of 300 mg/L. The adsorption kinetics is well described by pseudo-second-order kinetics, and the adsorption equilibrium data are well fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model (R2= 0.988). Thermodynamics experiments indicate that the adsorption process is both spontaneous and endothermic. In addition, the adsorbent is reusable. We conclude that MOF-5–CMC is a good adsorbent that can be used to remove Pb(II) from aqueous solutions.Keywords:carboxymethylcellulose;adsorption;Pb(II);MOF-5

Lead ions in water have notorious effects on humans and environment. It is important to design an adsorbent with high adsorption capacity and reproducibility for efficiently removing Pb (II)ions from polluted water. Here, a novel Ti-based MOFs material (BDB-MIL-125(Ti)@Fe 3 O 4 ) was prepared by modifying NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti) with sulfhydryl and amino groups. Due to the large number of active sites, the maximum Pb (II) adsorption capacity of BDB-MIL-125(Ti)@Fe 3 O 4 was 710.79 mg/g at 25 °C and pH = 6 within 120 min corresponding to a maximum removal rate of 95.68%. The adsorbent also has extremely high selectivity and good cycling adsorption performance. The adsorption isotherms and kinetics agree with the Langmuir and the pseudo-second-order models, indicating that the process was chemisorption . Thermodynamic studies prove that spontaneous processes enhance Pb (II) adsorption at higher temperatures. DFT and FMOs calculations were used to discuss the adsorption mechanism. The sulfhydryl groups on the surface of organic ligands have a stronger affinity for Pb (II).

A novel hydrophilic Pb(II) ion-imprinted polymer (Pb(II)-IIP) was synthesized using lead ion as a template ion, 2-(allyl sulfur) nicotinic acid as functional monomer by precipitation polymerization method. The adsorption capacity of Pb(II)-IIP to Pb(II) was saturated at 16 min, and the adsorption process is consistent with the quasi-second-order kinetic adsorption model. The optimum adsorption capacity of Pb(II)-IIP was 29.67 mg/g, about triple than Pb(II)-NIP, and the adsorption is in accordance with the Langmuir isothermal model, which indicates that it is dominated by single layer chemical adsorption. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS) data confirm that the chelate ratio of Pb(II) to 2-(allylthio) nicotinic acid is 1:2. In the presence of competing ions, the adsorption capacity of Pb(II)-IIP to Pb(II) is much larger than that of other ions, which indicates that Pb(II)-IIP is less disturbed by competitive ions. The experiment of application of practical wastewater shows that Pb(II)-IIP has a Pb(II) removal rate of 97.2% or more in practical industrial wastewater, which is in accordance with national emission standards. It is proved that Pb(II)-IIP is an effective material to remove Pb(II) in industrial wastewater.

A novel magnetic carboxylated cellulose nanocrystal composite (CCN-Fe 3 O 4 ) was prepared as an adsorbent for the adsorption of Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The new adsorbent was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Batch experiments were carried out to investigate the effects of contact time, adsorbent dose, pH, and temperature on adsorption capacity. Pb(II) adsorption onto CCN-Fe 3 O 4 reached equilibrium in 240 min, and the maximum adsorption capacity of Pb(II) was 63.78 mg g −1 at 298.2 K. The equilibrium data fitted the Langmuir isotherm model better than the Freundlich isotherm model, and they were well explained in terms of pseudo-second-order kinetics. Thermodynamics studies indicated that the adsorption of Pb(II) onto CCN-Fe 3 O 4 was spontaneous and endothermic in nature. The adsorbent could also be regenerated with acid treatment and successfully reapplied.
