In this study, nanochitin-contained magnetic chitosan (FPCC) microfibers were prepared successfully via continuous injection gelation method and employed to remove Ni(II) ion from aqueous solution. Firstly, Fe 3 O 4 -nanoparticles were encapsulated into ε-caprolactam (CL) monomer solution in the presence of polystyrene (PSE), followed by CL anionic ring-opening polymerization and PSE removal, and obtained magnetic polyamide 6 (PA 6) microparticles (FP). After that, the economical FPCC microfibers can be prepared by adding FP microparticles and nanochitin (n-CT) into poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan hybrids (PVA/CTS). The obtained FPCC microfibers had shown significant advantages in production, separation, and adsorption when compared to the hydrogel beads prepared by the traditional method (instantaneous gelation method). Within 10 h, 99.7% Ni(II) could be adsorbed by FPCC magnetic microfibers (adsorbent dosage: 1 g, pH: 4.1, and temperature: 293 K). More attractively, the hybridized microfibers could be easily separated from the aqueous solution through a magnetic separation method after Ni(II) adsorption. Ni(II) adsorption behaviors of the hybrid microfibers conform to the Langmuir isotherm model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Besides, the possible adsorption mechanism was also discussed.

Heavy metal ions contain highly toxic and non-biodegradable wastewater pollutants seriously contaminating the environment and affecting human health. Removal of heavy metal ions from the environment is a vital step towards the elimination of water pollution on a global scale. Therefore, in this study, cellulose was modified with L-cysteine, sodium alginate and polyethyleneimine to produce cellulose/sodium alginate /polyethyleneimine/L-cysteine composite hydrogel microspheres (WCMs/SA/PEI/L-Cys) in order to efficiently adsorb heavy metal ions. Co(II) and Ni(II) are successfully removed from water. After their production, the sorbents underwent examination using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In addition, the investigation of the mechanism and adsorption characteristics of cellulose-modified gel microspheres WCMs/SA/PEI/L-Cys has been completed. The majority of the adsorption of contaminants by cellulose-modified gel microspheres WCMs/SA/PEI/L-Cys adhered to the Langmuir isothermal adsorption model and quasi-secondary kinetic model. The intra-particle diffusion model was adopted for improving the fitting of the adsorption process in the materials. It was indicated that the internal and external diffusion acted together to eliminate the contaminants from the materials. When exploring the decontamination mechanism of the materials using XPS, it was shown that the functional groups containing nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur play a key role in removing contaminants. For Co(II) and Ni(II), the highest adsorption capacities of the sorbent were 358 and 373 mg/g, respectively. The material exhibited robust stability and recyclability based on the regeneration experiment results, remaining stable after six adsorption cycles and retaining over 80% of the initial adsorption amount.

The imperative need for efficient and selective adsorption of Ni(II) and Mo(VI) is crucial for resource utilization and environmental protection. However, this process faces a challenge due to the scarcity of adsorbents that can adeptly adsorb both metal ions simultaneously. To address this, this study introduces a novel composite adsorbent material, denoted as BECZN, achieved through composite cross-linking of waste orange peel biochar with in situ aminated cobalt/zinc-zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (Co/Zn-ZIF-NH 2 ). The incorporation of Co/Zn-ZIF-NH 2 enhances the availability of active groups within BECZN. The aerogel structure of BECZN prevents ZIF material collapse and agglomeration, thereby improving active site exposure. BECZN exhibits notable adsorption capacities, reaching 151.84 mg/g for Ni(II) at pH = 7 and 842.54 mg/g for Mo(VI) at pH = 3. Further investigations indicated that the adsorption of Ni(II) and Mo(VI) obeys the Langmuir isotherm model, while exhibiting pseudo-second-order kinetics and intraparticle diffusion characteristics. Notably, BECZN selectively adsorbs Ni(II) and Mo(VI) efficiently under acidic and neutral conditions, respectively. It can maintain high capacity under the interference of various cations and anions. Meanwhile, this excellent selective adsorption of Ni(II) and Mo(VI) by Co/Zn-ZIF-NH 2 is revealed at the atomic level using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. This study offers a theoretical basis and experimental reference for the design and synthesis of ZIF and biomass-based composite adsorbents.

It is important to identify non-planar deformations of porphyrin macrocycle in metallo-porphyrin proteins due to their functional relevance. The relationship between non-planar deformations of porphyrin macrocycle and low frequency Raman spectral bands of Ni(II) meso-tetraphenyl porphyrin (NiTPP), with different coordination numbers, was studied by density functional theory (DFT), normal coordinate structural decomposition method and Raman experiments. The results show that the crystal of four-coordinate NiTPP has two major kinds of non-planar deformations: ruffling and saddling. The non-planar deformations of ruffling and saddling for NiTPP are 1.473 Å and 0.493 Å determined by DFT calculation. The ruffling and saddling deformations can be identified by using the low frequency Raman characteristic peaks ( γ 12 , γ 13 ) and ( γ 16 , γ 17 ), respectively. When four-coordinate NiTPP is transformed to the six-coordinate bis(pyrrolidine) NiTPP (NiTPP(Pyr) 2 ), the large non-planar distortion of the porphyrin macrocycle almost disappears, with the non-planar deformation of saddling only about 0.213 Å estimated by DFT calculation. Experimentally, we can make use of the characteristic peaks of low frequency Raman spectra to identify the saddling deformation beyond 0.25 Å.

This study reports a novel adsorbent structure and shows the satisfactory removal performance of Pb(II) and Ni(II). The fabric structure increases the strength of the hydrogel. The hydrogel plays a major role in the composite structure as a matrix, while the fabric bears the applied load and protects the structure from mechanical damage. The double-network composite hydrogel is reinforced by plasma grafted polylactic acid melt-blown non-woven fabric and polyethylene glycol dimaleate, and its compressive strength reaches 40.6 kPa at 60% strain. The interface substantially improves the compression strength by 42.9%. Through the adsorption isotherm model, the adsorption capacity of the hydrogel for Pb(II) and Ni(II) reaches 233.12 and 165.06 mg/g, respectively, and the removal rate of heavy metal ions in water at low concentrations exceeds 95%, showing the excellent removal rate of heavy metals. Even after the fifth cycle, the removal efficiency barely declines, indicating the feasibility of repeatedly use. Cost analysis reveals that the adsorbent is relatively low cost, solving the problems of difficult recovery, low strength, and easy damage of hydrogel adsorbents, and promoting the industrial application of hydrogels as adsorbents.

In this study, a Ni(II) ion imprinted polymer (Ni(II)-IIP) based on macroporous–mesoporous silica (MMS) was optimally synthesized using a response surface methodology (RSM) approach for enhanced dynamic adsorption capacity. The MMS was prepared via dual-templating routes employing liquid crystalline surfactants and polystyrene beads to improve mass transfer and reduce transport limitations. With dynamic adsorption capacity for Ni(II) as the response, the effects of four variables, i.e. the amount of S,S′-bis(α,α′-dimethyl-α′′-acetic acid)trithiocarbonate (BDAAT), the consumption of acrylamide (AM), the reaction time and the dosage of 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), were investigated to solve the complex synthesis process. The predicted appropriate preparation conditions were as follows: BDAAT dose 0.07 g, AM dose 0.029 g, reaction time 6.3 h, and AIBN dose 4.54 mg, under which a Ni(II)-IIP was prepared and used as an adsorbent to remove Ni(II), obtaining the maximum dynamic adsorption capacity (12.96 mg g−1). The significance of independent variables and their interactions was studied to explain the specific adsorption question. In addition, the resulting Ni(II)-IIP was performed without any obvious deterioration after five repeated cycles.

The development of selective electrochemical response materials and new detection strategies are the research focus in the field of heavy metal ion (HMI) electroanalysis. Herein, a Ni(II)-based metal-organic framework (NH 2 -Ni-MOF) was synthesized and functionalized by electrochemically active molecule of ferrocene (Fc) via post-synthesis modification. Based on the Fc-functionalized NH 2 -Ni-MOF (Fc-NH 2 -Ni-MOF), a novel electrochemical ratiometric sensing platform was developed and applied for the simultaneous determination of various HMIs. The prepared NH 2 -Ni-MOF exhibits nanoplate structure, which is conducive to increase accessible electrode area and expose more active sites, thus promoting the adsorption and pre-concentration of HMIs. The modification of Fc on MOF not only enhances the electrical conductivity of the MOF material, but also provides an internal reference signal for the ratiometric analysis. Due to the excellent characteristics of the Fc-NH 2 -Ni-MOF, the as-prepared ratiometric electrochemical sensing platform exhibits wide linear ranges (0.001 μM to 2.0 μM for lead ions (Pb 2+ ), and 0.01 μM to 2.0 μM for copper ions (Cu 2+ ) as well as cadmium ions (Cd 2+ )) and high sensitivity (the detection limit toward Cu 2+ , Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ is 6.3 nM, 0.2 nM and 7.1 nM, respectively). In addition, compared with the non-ratiometric strategy, the reproducibility of ratiometric analysis is significantly improved. The developed electrochemical method with high sensitivity, selectivity and reliability exhibits bright application prospects in the detection of real samples. Moreover, the electrochemical application of MOF materials has been effectively expanded.

A novel CuO-CeO 2 -CoO x nanocatalyst was prepared for heterogeneous Fenton-like reaction to break the Ni 2+ -chelate into free Ni 2+ in electroless nickel plating wastewater, followed by separation of Ni 2+ in an insoluble form. The composite nanocatalysts prepared by co-precipitation method were characterized by XRD, TEM, and XPS, et al. Its catalytic activity as Fenton-like reagent was evaluated by the removal efficiency of Ni(II)-citrate after decomplexation and postprecipitation treatment. Subsequently, the effects of operating parameters on the decomplexation efficiency of the nanocatalysts were investigated including calcination temperature of catalysts, H 2 O 2 concentration, catalyst dosage, initial pH and reaction temperature. Under optimized condition, the Ni(II)-citrate complexes ( C 0 = 1.0 mM) achieved the complete decomplexation (>99.9%) within 60-min reaction using 0.3 g/L of CuO-CeO 2 -CoO x calcined at 450 °C and 75 mM of H 2 O 2 at pH 3.0 under 50 °C of reaction. Then, Ni 2+ after decomplexation could be completely removed by the subsequent precipitation at pH 11.0. In addition, the life test of CuO-CeO 2 -CoO x catalyst indicated that, after recycled 10 times, its activity for decomplexation of Ni(II)-citrate decreased no more than 8%. As a result, this new heterogeneous Fenton-like process is promising for decomplexation and purification of electroless nickel plating wastewater as a sludge reduction technology.

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.

A novel magnetic graphene oxide-based surface imprinted polymer (Fe3O4@GO@IIP) was synthesized using the surface imprinting technology to selectively adsorb Ni(II) from aqueous solution. The imprinted polymer was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM, TEM, VSM, TGA and XPS. The results showed that the sorbent exhibited good thermal and mechanical stability, and can be quickly separated from the solution by applying an external magnetic field. The adsorption performance indicated that the prepared imprinted material had a short adsorption equilibrium time (16 min) and a high adsorption capacity (35.31 mg g−1) for Ni(II) at an optimal pH of 6.0. The selectivity coefficients of the imprinted material were 17.57, 16.27, 10.86, 14.27 and 17.65 for Ni(II)/Co(II), Ni(II)/Cu(II), Ni(II)/Pb(II) Ni(II)/Cd(II), and Ni(II)/Zn(II), respectively. Reusability studies indicated that the adsorption capacity of the prepared polymer did not decrease significantly after repeated use ten times. Moreover, the adsorption mechanism of Ni(II) by the imprinted polymer was also studied. The adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic, and followed the pseudo-secondary kinetic model and the Langmuir model. The results of the Scatchard model indicated the presence of two Ni(II) strong binding sites on Fe3O4@GO@IIP, where the single-bond O atom of the sulfonic acid group and the N atom of the –N–CO group in AMPS played a dominant role in Ni(II) adsorption, as conformed by both DFT calculations and XPS.

Three chlorinated metal complexes [Ni2(HL)2(C2H5OH)2Cl2]·2C2H5OH (complex 1), [Co(HL)(L)] (complex 2), and [Zn2(HL)2(CH3COO)2] (complex 3) derived from 5-chlorosalicylaldehyde and 2-(2-aminophenyl)-1H-benzimidazole Schiff base ligand (H2L). The crystal structures of the three complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray single-crystal diffraction, and UV-visible absorption spectrum. The in vitro cytotoxicity of chlorinated ligand and its metal complexes were evaluated on four different tumor cell lines (A-549 lung cancer, SMMC-7721 liver cancer, MDA-MB-231 breast cancer, and CNE-2Z nasopharyngeal carcinoma), and normal ovarian epithelial cell (IOSE 80) was determined by MTT assay. The results indicated that chloro-benzimidazole Schiff base Co (III) complex (complex 2) displayed higher cytotoxicity against MDA-MB-231 cell line than cisplatin, while the cytotoxicity on IOSE 80 was lower than that of cisplatin. The results of further study of MDA-MB-231 cells by complex 2 showed that complex 2 could inhibit MDA-MB-231 cells in the G0/G1 phase, inhibit cell proliferation and migration, promote cell apoptosis, and increase intracellular ROS level. The Western blot analysis demonstrated that complex 2 could increase Bax protein expression and decrease Bcl-2 protein expression in MDA-MB-231 cells.

The preparation of the maple leaf-like MnO 2 –SiO 2 @PDA biomimetic composites not only overcame the problem of easy agglomeration of nanoparticles, but also provided rich functional groups, large specific surface areas and good stability, achieving the efficient sorption of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) from aqueous solution. The maximum sorption capacities of the MnO 2 –SiO 2 @PDA towards Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) attained from the Langmuir model were 218.788, 383.420 and 148.939 mg·g −1 , respectively. The sorption of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) on the MnO 2 –SiO 2 @PDA were strongly affected by pH, but not by ionic strength, showing good resistance to salt interference. The main sorption mechanism of the MnO 2 –SiO 2 @PDA towards Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) was the strong surface complexation of the functional groups on the MnO 2 –SiO 2 @PDA with Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II). Moreover, the radii of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) ions and their complexation strength with the MnO 2 –SiO 2 @PDA jointly determined the order of the competitive sorption capacities as Cu(II) > Cd(II) > Ni(II). Given the above analyses, the maple leaf-like MnO 2 –SiO 2 @PDA biomimetic composites have excellent application prospects in practical wastewater treatment.
