The development of an uncomplicated, fast and low-price method for heavy metal ion detection is essential for environmental detection and pollution control. In this research, an innovative type of electrochemical detection sensor was realized by using a kind of glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with thiacalix[4]arene (TC4A). The results indicated that Cu(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions in the sample solution can be detected quickly and simultaneously in the differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) mode. The test results can reveal whether the concentration of heavy metal ions in wastewater is up to standard. The optimization of multiple experimental parameters including the amount of modification, pH value, deposition time and deposition potential was studied and accomplished. Under the best experimental conditions, the peak value of the voltammetry current increased linearly with the concentration. Within this range, the peak current value and concentration have a very good linear relationship with increasing concentrations of Cu(II), Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions in the ranges of 1.0–2.0 mg L−1, 0.1–1.0 mg L−1 and 1.0–2.0 mg L−1, respectively. And the limits of detection (S/N = 3) are estimated to be 3.0 μg L−1 for Cu(II), 4.0 μg L−1 for Cd(II) and 2.5 μg L−1 for Pb(II), which are lower than those obtained at the unmodified electrodes. Most importantly, the modified electrode was successfully applied in the determination of heavy metals in river water. This innovative electrochemical detection sensor shows high sensitivity, good stability and reproducibility.

With chloromethylated polystyrene resin being the base material, a new type of salicylic acid-type chelating resin with high capacity was prepared by grafting glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) on the surface of the resin via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization and followed by the derivatization with 5-aminosalicylic acid. Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterize the surface composition of the resin. It was found that the grafting degree of GMA increased linearly with the extension of ATRP time and GMA concentration. The maximum adsorption capacities of the resin were up to 4.23 mmol g−1 for Fe(III), 4.02 mmol g−1 for Ag(I), 2.36 mmol g−1 for Ni(II) and 1.75 mmol g−1 for Cu(II) at pH 4.0, respectively. The adsorption kinetics of the four metal ions conform to the model of pseudo second-order kinetics, and adsorption equilibria were better characterized by the Langmuir equation. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated to understand the nature of the adsorption process. The resin possesses excellent desorption rate and reusability. All these results indicate that the resin could be potentially applied to the efficient removal of heavy metal ions from waste water.

The detection of heavy metals in tea infusions is important because of the potential health risks associated with their consumption. Existing highly sensitive detection methods pose challenges because they are complicated and time-consuming. In this study, we developed an innovative and simple method using Ag nanoparticles-modified resin (AgNPs-MR) for pre-enrichment prior to laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy for the simultaneous analysis of Cr (III), Cu (II), and Pb (II) in tea infusions. Signal enhancement using AgNPs-MR resulted in amplification with limits of detection of 0.22 μg L −1 for Cr (III), 0.33 μg L −1 for Cu (II), and 1.25 μg L −1 for Pb (II). Quantitative analyses of these ions in infusions of black tea from various brands yielded recoveries ranging from 83.3% to 114.5%. This method is effective as a direct and highly sensitive technique for precisely quantifying trace concentrations of heavy metals in tea infusions.

In this investigation, six new metal complexes with 2-(pyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]imidazole (bpm) were synthesized and analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), including catena-bis[(µ-2,2-bis(4-carobxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole)-aqua-zinc] (1), catena-[(µ-2,2-bis(4-carobxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole)-aqua-cadmium] (2), aqua-[2,2-bis(4-carobxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane]-bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole]-manganese (3), μ-[2-nitrobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato]-μ-[2-nitrobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato]-bis[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole]-di-zinc (4), catena-[bis(µ-2-nitrobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylato)-diaqua-bis(2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole)-di-cadmium] (5), aqua-[pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylato]-[2-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzimidazole]-copper hydrate (6) (H2hfipbb = 2,2-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane, H2nbdc acid = Nitroterephthalic acid, and H2pda = 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid). Complex 1 crystallized in a monoclinic system with space group P21/n; 2 crystallized in a monoclinic system with space group C2/c; 3 crystallized in an orthorhombic system with space group Pna21; 5 crystallized in a monoclinic system with space group P21/c; 4 and 6 crystallized in triclinic systems with space group P-1. The DNA-binding modes of the complexes were investigated by several analysis methods (e.g. viscosity analysis, circular dichroism spectroscopy, fluorescent spectroscopic analysis, as well as UV spectroscopic analysis). Complexes 1-6 bind to calf thymus DNA via an intercalative mode. The results of this study provide insights into the mechanism of DNA binding and provide a basis for rationally designing new powerful reagents for DNA detection and targeting.

Carbon nanodots modified with triethylenetetramine (referred to as TCDs) are shown to be viable fluorescent probes for relay recognition of Cu(II) ion and glutathione (GSH). The assay is based on an “on-off-on” mechanism where the “on-off” effect, i.e. quenching by Cu(II) by up to 67%, is exploited to quantify it in concentrations as low as 3.4 nM. The unique quenching of fluorescence (measured at excitation/emission wavelengths of 380/470 nm; quantum yield 16%) is attributed to the fairly selective capture of Cu(II) by the amino and amide groups on the surface of the TCDs. On addition of GSH to the quenched TCD/Cu(II) complex, fluorescence is restored. This effect enables GSH to be quantified in the 0.2 to 175 μM concentration range, with a 0.11 μM detection limit. The turn-on response to GSH is highly selective over other natural amino acids and common anions. Furthermore, the TCDs were successfully applied to image Cu(II) and GSH in living yeast cells.
Carbon nanodots modified with triethylenetetramine show strong blue fluorescence which is quenched by Cu(II) but restored on addition of glutathione. Both Cu(II) (down to 3.4 nM) and glutathione (down to 110 nM) can be detected via these effects.

In order to solve the problems of environmental pollution and energy crisis, it is of great significance to develop low-cost, high-efficiency and environmentally friendly multifunctional materials to deal with environmental and energy concerns. Herein, two multifunctional Cu(II) coordination complexes with the formula {[Cu(m-bix)(FDC)(H2O)]·H2O}n (1) and {[Cu2(DAP)4(NIP)2]·DMF}n (2) (m-bix = m-bis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene; DAP = N-(4-pyridyl)dimethylamine; H2FDC = 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid; H2NIP = 5-nitroisophthalic acid) were successfully constructed by using mixed ligands via a solvothermal method. Structural analyses show that both complexes exhibit a 1D chain structure, extending into a 3D supramolecular network via abundant hydrogen bonding forces. Electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalytic studies reveal that 1 and 2 are efficient electrocatalysts for the OER. In particular, 2 has a lower overpotential of 360 mV at 1 mA cm−2 under alkaline conditions. Furthermore, both complexes exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity due to their narrow band gaps – 2.51 eV (494 nm) for 1 and 2.77 eV (448 nm) for 2. The oxidation system composed of the complex and H2O2 can degrade methyl orange azo dyes (40 mg L−1) to less than 10% in only 150 minutes under sunlight irradiation. This work demonstrates that employing mixed ligands is a promising approach to obtain multifunctional complexes. It also opens up a unique path for the development of high-efficiency, low-cost, and environmentally friendly multifunctional materials to address environmental and energy issues.

A novel Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) composite membrane involving ZIF-8 nanoparticles , named as ZIF-8/PAN membrane, was obtained via electrospinning to remove the Congo red (CR), Pb(II) and Cu(II) ions in industrial wastewaters , during which the adsorption mechanisms were examined in this study. The adsorption efficiency of the electrospun ZIF-8/PAN membrane was as high as 89%, 92% and 76% for CR, Pb(II) and Cu(II), respectively. Comparative analysis showed that ZIF-8 nanoparticles embedded in the ZIF-8/PAN membrane accounted for these enhanced adsorption capabilities. The adsorption behaviors of the ZIF-8 nanoparticles were investigated through experiments and theoretical analysis, and the results unraveled that the adsorption for CR by the ZIF-8 was mainly including electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding and π − π interaction, while those for Pb(II) and Cu(II) were mainly caused by ion-exchange and chemical adsorption. Parametric studies were conducted to optimize the conditions for removing CR, Pb(II), and Cu(II) by ZIF-8 nanoparticles, during which all of pollutants showed different reactions to the solution pH. This work not only develops a novel ZIF-8/PAN composite membrane for effective removals of pollutants, but also reveals the underlying mechanisms of pollutants adsorption in terms of molecular interactions, providing important understandings on fibrous materials design for efficient heavy metals and dyes removals in industrial wastewater treatment .

Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on heterogeneous catalytic activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) have been becoming alternatives to conventional wastewater treatment technologies to directly degrade chemical contaminants. To build dual/multi redox cycles of different metal ions may be an effective means for better PMS activation. Herein, this study designed Mn 3 O 4 /CuBi 2 O 4 with dual redox cycles of Mn(III)/Mn(IV) and Cu(I)/Cu(II) to activate PMS for efficiently decomposing and mineralizing diclofenac sodium (DCF). Under optimal reaction conditions, DCF (50 mg/L) was degraded totally within 10 min, and TOC removal rate reached up to 74.3%. The possible mechanism of PMS activation by Mn 3 O 4 /CuBi 2 O 4 was proposed, wherein dual redox cycles of Mn(III)/Mn(IV) and Cu(I)/Cu(II) on Mn 3 O 4 /CuBi 2 O 4 effectively facilitated PMS activation to generate · O 2 − , 1 O 2 , SO 4 · − and · OH, which was responsible for DCF degradation. Moreover, combined with degraded products detected by high resolution liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry and corresponding toxic assessment results, the possible degradation pathways of DCF were proposed and the relative toxicity of degraded products was evaluated. This work may be useful for developing stronger heterogeneous activators of PMS to construct more efficient AOPs for purifying wastewater.

To bridge transition metal complexes and heterogeneous catalysts for allylic oxidation of cyclohexene to 2-cyclohexene-1-one with O2 under mild conditions, Cu(II) coordinated N-bearing heteropolyacid-based poly(ionic liquid)s (Cu-PDVD-PW) were herein synthesized as novel heterogeneous catalysts. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts were investigated by BET, TG, XPS, FT-IR and SEM/EDS analysis. The results indicated that the as-prepared Cu-PDVD-PW catalyst inherited appreciable mesopores and excellent thermal stability from the N-bearing poly(ionic liquid)s, which could increase the mass transfer rate and provide more accessible active sites. Significantly, the Cu2+ cations were homogeneously and stably coordinated on the N-bearing poly(ionic liquid)s, which greatly improved the catalytic performance for cyclohexene oxidation toward 2-cyclohexene-1-one with O2 under mild conditions. Specifically, the 3% Cu-PDVD-PW catalyst exhibited 75.9% conversion of cyclohexene with a selectivity towards 2-cyclohexene-1-one of 45.5% and no activity loss within five cycles under the optimum reaction conditions.

Fe-based replacement and precipitation are promising methods for removal of copper ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (Cu(II)-EDTA) but are limited by the necessity of controlling pH and dissolved oxygen. The details of the decomplexation mechanism also remain unclear. The present work investigated an anoxic iron electrocoagulation process capable of automatically modulating anoxic conditions and solution pH during exposure to air and thus promoting the rapid and thorough decomplexation of Cu(II)-EDTA. Dissolved Fe (II), rather than Fe(II)-bearing minerals, was found to be primarily responsible for the reduction of Cu(II)-EDTA to Cu(I)-EDTA and for the subsequent replacement reaction to generate free Cu(I) ions within the initial pH range of 2–7. The Cu(I) was primarily precipitated as Cu 2 O on the surface of green rust and magnetite as the pH was increased. The aeration of these Fe-containing precipitates released free Cu(I) ions instead of chelated Cu into solution, allowing for recycling of the Cu. This release of Cu(I) was likely induced by the pH decrease during aeration. This study provides important insights regarding the reductive decomplexation of chelated Cu(II) and the recovery of Cu via anoxic iron electrocoagulation, which is a promising green approach to recycling Cu from wastewater.

In this paper, a novel sandwich immunosensor based on a toluidine blue (Tb) loaded metal organic framework (Cu(II)-HKUST-1/Tb) as the signal element and a nitrogen-doped 3D carbon nanostructure as the electrode substrate was constructed for the detection of C-reactive protein (CRP). Tb as an electrochemically active agent usually forms a polymer by aggregation in the solvent, causing a poor electrochemical response. Therefore, in order to overcome this obstacle, Cu(II)-HKUST-1 with a porous nanostructure and large specific surface area as a carrier could adsorb a large number of Tb molecules on its surface to improve its electrochemical performance. In addition, the high electron transfer efficiency of the N-doped bamboo-like carbon nanotubes (CoFe/N-GCT) improves the sensitivity of the biosensor. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was used to detect the current signal of Tb at −0.2 V. The current response increased with the increase in concentration of CRP, ranging from 0.5 to 200 ng mL−1. The detection limit is 166.7 pg mL−1 (S/N = 3). Moreover, the proposed biosensor can be applied in real serum sample detection. It has potential applications in the field of biomedicine assays.

Efficient removal of contaminants, like heavy metal ions and dyes, from wastewater by eco-friendly and low-cost adsorbent is highly desirable. Herein, a green aerogel was prepared using sodium alginate/carboxylated chitosan/montmorillonite (MSC-P) as the basic framework, followed by polyethyleneimine functionalized and Ca 2+ post-crosslinking. The multi-crosslinked aerogel exhibited the excellent adsorption capacity towards methylene blue (MB), Congo red (CR) and Cu(II), with the q m being 723.97 mg/g, 1573.21 mg/g and 203.99 mg/g, respectively. The mathematical model suggested that the adsorption process for MB fitted pseudo-first-order kinetics model better, whereas the CR and Cu (II)’s adsorption process were conformed to pseudo-second-order kinetics model. Moreover, the adsorption isotherm for three contaminants could be well described by Langmuir model, suggesting that the adsorption process was spontaneous and mainly controlled by monolayer coverage. Moreover, MSC-P aerogel exhibited good reusability as the removal efficiencies for MB and Cu(II) were 85.16 % and 51.4 % after ten cycles of adsorption–desorption, respectively. Importantly, it possessed considerable simultaneous removal ability for binary system mixed dyes. In combination of FTIR analyses, it was found that electrostatic attraction, hydrogen bonding, coordination and cation exchange were the main adsorption mechanisms involved. Therefore, the as-prepared aerogel can be considered as a promising adsorbent for the treatment of wastewater.
