Plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) system was used to prepare a vertically arranged graphene (VG) thin-film materials. Bismuth nanoparticles (BiNPs) of different sizes were loaded on VG films by physical vapor deposition (PVD) technique to obtain a BiNPs decorated VG screen-printed electrodes (BiNPs/VG-SPEs) with high sensitivity. The morphology and electrochemical properties of VG-SPE and three BiNPs/VG-SPEs with different sizes of BiNPs were studied by various interface characterization and electrochemical measurements. Compared with pristine VG-SPEs, BiNPs/VG-SPEs demonstrated better electrochemical performance. The electrode with smaller size of BiNPs has the larger electrochemical active area and higher electron transfer efficiency, achieving better electrochemical response to Pb(II) ions. Therefore, VG-SPE with smallest size of BiNPs (4.6 ± 0.5 nm) was utilized to detect Pb(II) ions in aqueous solution. Under the optimized conditions, BiNPs/VG-SPE showed a broader linear concentration range (5–200 μg/L) with a low detection limit (0.15 μg/L). This sensor was also successfully applied for detection of Pb(II) ions in groundwater and tap water. Recovery rates ranged from 96.2 to107.2 % with a relative standard deviation (RSD) less than 6.8 %. It also has good anti-interference and repeatability. Our results provide a promising sensor technique for efficient and rapid in situ monitoring of Pb(II) ions in aquatic environments.

Since lead is teratogenic, carcinogenic and mutagenic, people pay increasing attention to lead contamination in water environment. In this work, a novel electrochemical sensor was developed to detect Pb(II) ion in water by PPy , MOFs and bismuth film (BF) modify GCE . Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy , contact angleanalyses, cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry were used to characterize the BF-PPy/UIO-66-NH 2 /GCE surface, revealing the physical and electrochemical properties of the electrode. MOFs increased the specific surface area and adsorption site of the electrode. The PPy enhanced the conductivity of the composites materials. MOFs and PPy synergistically promoted the electrochemical performance of the electrode. The deposition potential, deposition time , solution pH and Bi (III) concentration were optimized to determine the optimal detection condition. The electrode has a wide linear range (0.5 to 10 μg/L) with a low detection limit (0.05 μg/L). This electrode also has good anti-interference, repeatability and stability. Besides, it has been successfully applied to the detection of actual water samples. The recovery rates ranged from 95.4 % to 102.8 % with a relative standard deviation (RSD) less than 4.40 %. Our results provide an insight on efficient and rapid detection of Pb(II) ions in water environment in the future.

Water pollution is a worldwide problem that requires urgent attention and prevention and exceeding use of heavy-metal ions is one of the most harmful factors, which poses a serious threat to human health and the ecological environment. In this work, a magnetic oxidized micro/mesoporous carbon (MOMMC) was prepared for the easy separation of Cu(II) and Pb(II) from water. The dual-template method was used to prepare micro/mesoporous carbon using sucrose as the carbon source, silica nanoparticles formed by tetraethyl orthosilicate as the microporous templates, and triblock copolymer F127 as the mesoporous template. MOMMC was obtained by oxidation using potassium persulfate and then magnetized through in situ synthesis of Fe3O4nanoparticles. FTIR, TG-DSC, XRD, TEM, SEM, nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms, zeta potential, and VSM were used to confirm the synthetic process, structure, and basic properties of MOMMC. The high-saturation magnetization (59.6 emu·g−1) of MOMMC indicated its easy and fast separation from water by an external magnetic field. Kinetics studies showed that the adsorption of Cu(II) and Pb(II) on MOMMC fit the pseudo-second-order model well. Isotherm studies showed that the adsorption behavior of Cu(II) was better described by the Langmuir model, and the adsorption behavior of Pb(II) was better described by both Langmuir and Redlich–Peterson models. MOMMC obtained efficient adsorption for Cu(II) and Pb(II) with the large adsorption capacity of 877.19 and 943.40 mg·g−1according to the Langmuir adsorption isotherm equation, and a better selectivity for Pb(II) was observed in competitive adsorption. MOMMC still possessed a large adsorption capacity for Cu(II) and Pb(II) after three adsorption–desorption cycles. These findings show that MOMMC represents an excellent adsorption material for the efficient removal of heavy-metal ions.Keywords:magnetic mesoporous carbon;adsorption;copper;lead;adsorption kinetics;adsorption isotherms;selectivity

The conventional environmental remediation materials, which are applied for the long-term treatment of mine tailings are easy to fail when affected by acid rain. Therefore, dynamic column simulation experiments were conducted to compare the immobilization persistence of As, Mn, Pb and Zn by the addition of triethylenetetramine modified montmorillonite (TTA-Mt) and calcium-based montmorillonite (Ca-Mt) in sulfide tailings during a simulated 5-year study of acid rain leaching. The structural and morphological characteristics of TTA-Mt were analyzed with FTIR, XRD, SEM, TEM and EDS. Results showed that the additions of TTA-Mt could persistently immobilize the heavy metal ions while Ca-Mt additions had little effect. After long-term simulated leaching for 5 years, TTA-Mt still had superior environmental stability for Zn and As with the immobilization rates of 96% and 86%, and the leaching amounts of Mn and Pb were less than 4.23 and 0.66 mg/kg, respectively. Morphology and chemical fraction analyses confirmed that the immobilization was mainly due to the formation of relatively stable phases by complexation and precipitation. Results presented here demonstrated the significant potential of TTA-Mt for long-term immobilization of heavy metals in tailings against acid rain and thus could provide guidance for remediation of tailings.

Grain-oriented Pb(Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 -PbZrO 3 -PbTiO 3 (PMN-PZ-PT) based ceramics were synthesized through templated grain growth via using BaTiO 3 (BT) templates. Although BT templates are partially destroyed by PMN-PZ-PT matrix, CuO addition remarkably promotes [001] c -oriented grain growth behavior of the ceramics, resulting in an improvement of Lotgering factor F 001 from ~86% to 98%. Both crystallographic texture and CuO doping increase tetragonality and reduce average domain size of the ceramics dominated by rhombohedral phase. Consequently, 0.50 wt% CuO-doped ceramics ( F 001 ~98%) exhibit optimum electromechanical properties: d 33 ~860 pC/N, d 33 × g 33 ~48.6 × 10 −12 m 2 /N, k p ~0.80, E c ~7.2 kV/cm, tan δ ~0.8% and T c ~222 °C. In addition to ~3.7 times and 6.6 times higher d 33 and d 33 × g 33 , those ceramics possess about 240% enhanced piezoelectric strain and much better thermal stability ( S max / E max variation ≤2% between RT and 150 °C) relative to non-textured counterpart. This work offers a good paradigm for simultaneously exploring high piezoelectric response and good temperature stability in piezoceramics, benefiting the development of next-generation advanced electromechanical devices.

To address the competitive adsorption of complex wastewater components on organo-vermiculites (organo-Vts), multi-hydroxy containing gemini surfactants varying in alkyl chain length (G 12 , G 14 and G 16 ) are designed and applied for modifying Na-vermiculite (Na-Vt) targeted to the removal of co-existing MB and Pb(II). Organo-Vts exhibit enhanced hydrophobicity and enlarged interlayer spacing compared with Na-Vt, with the saturated modifier dosage reaching as low as 0.4 CEC of Na-Vt. Shorter alkyl chain induces suitable packing density and interlayer environment, endowing G 12 -Vt the highest adsorption capacity towards MB/Pb(II) compared with G 14 -Vt and G 16 -Vt (178.3/63.0 mg/g compared with 143.7/38.1 and 88.6/36.6 mg/g, respectively). Freundlich isotherm and PSO kinetic model are agreeable (the values of R 2 are higher than 0.98) with the endothermic adsorption processes . Notably, a simultaneous effect in binary-component system is obtained, and the maximum adsorption capacities of G 12 -Vt towards MB/Pb(II) reaching 349.9 and 124.5 mg/g, which are 1.96 and 1.95 times higher than single-component system, respectively. Combination of theoretical fitting and molecular simulation co-reveals the adsorption mechanism: the simultaneous effect is due to the providing of additional active sites by the adsorbed MB, which is stronger than that between Pb(II) and the modifier. Existence of π-ion interaction enhances the retention of Pb(II) for a further step. This work broadens a new research perspective for complex wastewater treatment and provides a deep understanding of the stimulative adsorption mechanism between dyes and metal ions .

In the current study, a series of CeO 2 -doped ( x = 0.01, 0.015, 0.02, 0.025 mol) ceramic samples were prepared, and the valence of Ce in the perovskite was analyzed in detail, revealing the polarization contribution and effect mechanism of the doped Ce element in the 0.65BaTiO 3 –0.35Sr 0.7 Bi 0.2 TiO 3 ceramic. The phase structure and electrical stored energy performance of the resulting ceramics were also characterized. It was found that adding an appropriate amount of CeO 2 to BaTiO 3 was helpful for improving the relaxor behavior, promoting electric storage, and releasing ceramic materials. Particularly, the electric breakdown strength of the 0.02Ce-doped specimen reached 330 kV/cm, and the corresponding density and efficiency were 2.57 J/cm 3 and 81.30%, respectively. In addition, doping with Ce caused the ceramics to exhibit good stability at frequencies of 1–300 Hz and over a temperature range of 30–150 °C. A high current density ( C D ) and power density ( P D ) were obtained in charge–discharge tests.

In this study, a sensitive and quantitative label-free electrochemical immunosensor based on bimetallic [email protected] nanoparticles , Prussian blue (PB), and reduced graphene oxide-tetraethylene pentamine nanocomposite (rGO-TEPA) was constructed to achieve sensitive detection of HBsAg. A one-pot green method was used to synthesize interlocked rGO-TEPA/PB hybrid composites as high-performance materials with good conductivity . PB was the electron transfer mediator used to provide electrochemical signals. By utilizing rGO-TEPA as supporting material , the stability and intensity of PB were greatly improved. The incorporation of highly conductive [email protected] nanoparticles could further amplify the electrochemical signal, and the high adsorption capacity could provide an efficient substrate for hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) immobilization. Under optimal conditions, the immunoassay had a wide linear range from 0.25 pg mL −1 to 400 ng mL −1 and a low detection limit of 0.08 pg mL −1 (S/N = 3). This method was also applied to the analysis of human serum samples, and the obtained results were on par with those of electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA), suggesting significant potential for this new method in clinical research.

Waste chicken feathers are the ideal precursor for the production of low-cost N-enriched biochar. KOH-modified N-enriched biochar (KNB) containing 15.92 wt% N was successfully prepared using waste chicken feathers. The adsorption kinetics results showed that KNB had rapid Cd (2 h) and Pb (1 h) adsorption rates. The Cd and Pb adsorption capacities of KNB (the values of K F were 22.324 (Cd) and 119.654 (Pb) mg 1−(1/n) ·L 1/n ·g −1 ) were 7.07 and 26.52 times higher than those of the original biochar based on the adsorption isotherm results. The KNB was stable at pH 3–6 and had stronger co-adsorption capacities in double-ion systems. Based on the adsorption experiments and various characterization methods, we concluded that the primary Cd and Pb adsorption mechanisms of KNB involved electrostatic interactions, cation-π interactions, complexation, and K + exchange. The precipitation mechanism could partially account for Pb adsorption but not for Cd adsorption. KOH modification enhanced the electronegativity of biochar and then increased the electrostatic attraction. Surface O- and N-containing functional groups were involved in Cd and Pb adsorption. Graphitic-N, oxidised-N, and O C O were the main active adsorption groups, the relative contents of which increased after KOH modification, thus increasing the Cd and Pb adsorption performance. Therefore, KNB can be used as a fast and highly efficient adsorption agent to remove Cd and Pb from wastewater containing either Cd and Pb or a combination of these two metals.

We report here the preparation process of a recyclable magnetic biochar functionalized with chitosan and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (E-CMBC). This prepared biochar was then evaluated regarding its adsorption performance for Pb(II) from an aqueous solution along with the potential adsorption mechanisms behind this process. XRD and SEM analyses showed that the magnetite particles were successfully embedded into biochar and the subsequent surface coating of chitosan and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid modification were also successful. The effects of the adsorbent dosage, ionic strength, initial solution pH, and contact time, on adsorption kinetics, adsorption isotherms, adsorption thermodynamics and regeneration performance were investigated. The removal of Pb(II) was dramatically improved to 156.68 mg g−1 compared with that by unmodified pristine biochar (10.90 mg g−1) at pH 3.0. In the range of pH 2.0–5.0, the adsorption performance of Pb(II) by E-CMBC remained above 152.50 mg g−1, which suggested that the adsorption capacity of the novel sorbent was not impacted by the competing adsorption of hydrogen cations under acidic conditions. The adsorption process could be well described by the Avrami fractional-order and Langmuir models. Thermodynamic analysis proved that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The magnetic strength of E-CMBC was measured as 3.1 emu g−1, suggesting that the consumed E-CMBC could be separated from water by an external magnet. A regeneration study showed that after three cycles of adsorption–desorption, 78.60% of the sorbent was recovered and 97.26% of the adsorption capacity was retained. The adsorption mechanism investigation indicated that Pb(II) adsorption was mainly due to the presence of functional amides and carboxyl groups of E-CMBC forming strong chemical complexation. In conclusion, E-CMBC is a novel, recyclable, and highly efficient adsorbent for removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution.

For further the understanding of the adsorption mechanism of heavy metal ions on the surface of protein-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers, a novel protein-derived hybrid nanoflower was prepared to investigate the adsorption behavior and reveal the function of organic and inorganic parts on the surface of nanoflowers in the adsorption process in this study. Silk fibroin (SF)-derived and copper-based protein-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers of SF@Cu-NFs were prepared through self-assembly. The product was characterized and applied to adsorption of heavy metal ion of Pb(II). With Chinese peony flower-like morphology, the prepared SF@Cu-NFs showed ordered three-dimensional structure and exhibited excellent efficiency for Pb(II) removal. On one hand, the adsorption performance of SF@Cu-HNFs for Pb(II) removal was evaluated through systematical thermodynamic and adsorption kinetics investigation. The good fittings of Langmuir and pseudo-second-order models indicated the monolayer adsorption and high capacity of about 2000 mg g−1of Pb(II) on SF@Cu-NFs. Meanwhile, the negative values ofΔrGm(T)θandΔrHmθproved the spontaneous and exothermic process of Pb(II) adsorption. On the other hand, the adsorption mechanism of SF@Cu-HNFs for Pb(II) removal was revealed with respect to its individual organic and inorganic component. Organic SF protein was designated as responsible ‘stamen’ adsorption site for fast adsorption of Pb(II), which was originated from multiple coordinative interaction by numerous amide groups; inorganic Cu3(PO4)2crystal was designated as responsible ‘petal’ adsorption site for slow adsorption of Pb(II), which was restricted from weak coordinative interaction by strong ion bond of Cu(II). With only about 10% weight content, SF protein was proven to play a key factor for SF@Cu-HNFs formation and have a significant effect on Pb(II) treatment. By fabricating SF@Cu-HNFs hybrid nanoflowers derived from SF protein, this work not only successfully provides insights on its adsorption performance and interaction mechanism for Pb(II) removal, but also provides a new idea for the preparation of adsorption materials for heavy metal ions in environmental sewage in the future.Keywords:silk fibroin;hybrid nanoflowers surface;Pb(II) removal;interaction mechanism

We report an efficient, reusable, and selective 6-aminothiouracil (ATA)-modified Zr(IV)-based adsorbent (defined as UiO-66-ATA(Zr)) for lead ion removal in water. The adsorption equilibrium time and the maximum sorption capacity of UiO-66-ATA(Zr) for Pb(II) are, respectively, 120 min and 386.98 mg/g at pH 4 and 298 K. The Pb(II) removal rate reaches 96% at 60 min and exceeds 99% at the equilibrium state in the pH range of 2.0–5.8. Hill and pseudo-second-order models can well describe the sorption process. Pb(II) adsorbing onto UiO-66-ATA(Zr) is an irreversible, favorable chemisorption process with multimolecule participation and film diffusion control. The calculations of density functional theory, the experimental results, and the characterization analyses suggest that the binding mechanisms are the chelation and ion-exchange/electrostatic interactions between hydroxyl/amino/sulfhydryl groups of UiO-66-ATA(Zr) and Pb(II). Besides, UiO-66-ATA(Zr) has a better affinity to Pb(II) than the coexisting ions in water and an excellent repeatability at eight cycles of adsorption. Moreover, the thermodynamic study shows that UiO-66-ATA(Zr) adsorbing Pb(II) is an endothermic reaction. Thus, UiO-66-ATA(Zr) is a prospective sorbent for Pb(II) removal under the initiative of environmental protection and water purification, and this work may also provide an idea for industrial catalysis.
