Recently, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their carbon derivates have been demonstrated as new electrode modifying materials for electrochemical sensing. In this work, the first example of the detection of heavy metal ions with a MOF-derived sensing platform was presented. The platform was based on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified by Nafion-bismuth/nitrogen doped microporous carbon (NMC) composite, in which the NMC was derived from a zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8). The good dispersibility, large specific surface area (941 m 2 g −1 ), high nitrogen content (25.0 at.%) and good electrical conductivity of the NMC materials, as well as the synergistic effects of Nafion and bismuth-film contributed to the enhanced signals of the electrode during the differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) measurements for simultaneous detection of trace Cd(II) and Pb(II) in aqueous solution. The calibration curves for Cd(II) covered two linear ranges varying from 2 to 10 μg L −1 and 10 to 100 μg L −1 . As for Pb(II), the linear calibration curves ranged from 0.5 to 10 μg L −1 and 10 to 100 μg L −1 . The detection limits were estimated to be 1.5 μg L −1 (S/N = 3) for Cd(II) and 0.05 μg L −1 (S/N = 3) for Pb(II), which were 2 times and 200 times lower than the guideline values of drinking water given by the World Health Organization (WHO), for Cd(II) and Pb(II), respectively. In addition, the good reproducibility and stability of the modified electrode offered a promising perspective for the detection of trace metal ions in practice. Compared with other porous carbon modified electrodes that obtained by either drop-casting or screen-printing method, the proposed Nafion/Bi/NMC/GCE showed a much lower detection limit for Pb(II) and a lower or comparable detection limit for Cd(II). Moreover, the obtaining of uniformly ordered N-doped carbon polyhedron could shed light on the preparation of other heteroatom-doped electrode modifying materials for the detection of heavy metal ions .

It is imperative to develop innovative methods for transforming natural biomass waste into environmentally benign and cost-effective functional adsorbents for use in the remediation of contaminated water environment. In this work, a polyethyleneimine (PEI) functionalized biomass-based adsorbent (PEI@E-Bio) with a high density of amino groups and rough and expansive surface was synthesized using waste eggplant as the raw material, exhibiting a high removal efficiency and a rapid rate of Pb(II) removal from polluted water. The maximum Pb(II) removal efficiency of 99.36 % was achieved for the optimized run with conditions of pH: 6, temperature: 20 °C, adsorption time: 90 min, PEI@E-Bio dosage: 0.2 g/L, and initial Pb(II) concentration: 10 mg/L. The pseudo-second order kinetic model provides a superior fit to the adsorption data, suggesting that the removal of Pb(II) by the PEI@E-Bio adsorbent occurs via a chemisorption process. Additionally, the influence of microstructure and surface chemistry on Pb(II) adsorption efficiency was also evaluated. The results demonstrated that the plate-like structure was the primary factor influencing the physical adsorption process. Conversely, the abundance of functional amino groups could markedly enhance the impact of chemical adsorption. The negative values of Δ H o and Δ G o demonstrate that the exothermic characteristic of the spontaneous and feasible adsorption process. The PEI@E-Bio has demonstrated robust adsorption stability and efficient regeneration performance in practical applications, highlighting its potential as a feasible, cost-efficient, and sustainable material for removing Pb(II). This research study is centered on the transformation of natural waste into biomass to effectively eliminate pollutants. It establishes a theoretical framework for environmentally conscious waste treatment, resource utilization, and the conversion of waste biomass into advanced materials.

Nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) has a high adsorption capacity for heavy metals, but it forms aggregates easily. In this study, zeolite-supported nanoscale zero-valent iron (Z-NZVI) was synthesized from a simplified liquid-phase reduction of iron(III) salts which simultaneously adsorbed As(III), Cd(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution and soil. Scanning electron micrographs showed that aggregation was eliminated and the NZVI evenly dispersed onto the surface of zeolite. FTIR spectra reveal that NZVI was protected from oxidization on the surface of Z-NZVI. XRD and XPS patterns confirmed the formation of Cd(OH) 2 , Pb 0 , and FeAsO 4 in Z-NZVI after adsorption. The experimental maximum adsorption capacity of Z-NZVI was 11.52 mg As(III)/g, 48.63 mg Cd(II)/g, and 85.37 mg Pb(II)/g at pH 6, respectively, much higher than that of zeolite. Batch experiments indicate that various adsorption mechanisms including electrostatic adsorption, ionic exchange, oxidation, reduction, co-precipitation, and complexation coexisted with the selected heavy metals. Due to the formation of multiphase compounds on the Z-NZVI, the synergy and competition among heavy metals were concurrent. Most arsenic, cadmium and lead in the soil samples were immobilized after mixing with 30 g/kg Z-NZVI. These results suggest that Z-NZVI has great potential for treating water and soil multi-contaminated with heavy metals.

Heavy metals (HMs) in wastewater, including Cd, Pb and Ni, were toxic and needed urgent treatment. Using biochar as an adsorbent to purify HM-containing wastewater is effective. However, there are few studies on screening of high-efficiency modifier and comparing their adsorption capacity. Herein, three different modification methods, including heteroatomic doping (urea), alkali hydroxide (NaOH) and chemical oxidation (KMnO 4 ), were used to improve removal ability of HMs by biochar. The difference in impregnation solution resulted in completely differences in microscopic morphology, physicochemical properties and adsorption efficiency of modified biochar. Biochar modified by KMnO 4 (Mn-BC) had significantly better adsorption capacity for Cd, Pb and Ni, reaching 46.40 mg/g, 80.20 mg/g and 18.65 mg/g, respectively, compared with raw biochar and other modification biochar, which might be due to the highest surface area and pore volume, lower zeta potential and loaded MnO x onto Mn-BC surface. Chemical and monolayer adsorption was dominant during adsorption of HMs. After adsorption, HMs were detected on the Mn-BC surface in the form of carbonate, hydroxide or oxide. Mineral precipitation and cation exchange were the dominant mechanisms during adsorption, accounting for 17.4%-41.8% and 43.0%-77.2%, respectively. Moreover, according to the correlation analysis, the increase in biochar pH, pore volume and degrees of carbonization were beneficial for HM adsorption. Mn-BC could adapt to a wider pH range (pH=4–6), and its adsorption capacity would not be interfered by coexisting ions (50 mg/L). This research proved advantages of biochar with KMnO 4 modification and highlighted its application in treatment of wastewater contaminated with multiple HMs.

Mg Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) intercalated by Mo 3 S 13 2− and MoS 4 2− (Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs/MoS 4 -LDHs) were prepared through the ion exchange method and compared their removing ability of Cu(II), Pb(II) from wastewater. When the batch experiment conducted at dosage 0.3 g/L, pH neutral, contact time 360 min, concentration 6 mmol/L and temperature 298 K, the adsorption capacity of Cu(II)/Pb(II) onto Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs and MoS 4 -LDHs was 2.76, 4.85 and 2.15, 4.66 mmol/g, Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs showed a higher adsorption capacity, which was because the larger amount of adsorption sites on Mo 3 S 13 2− . In mixed systems, Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs/MoS 4 -LDHs exhibited the preferential selectivity of Pb(II). When Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs/MoS 4 -LDHs adsorbed the low concentrations of Cu(II)/Pb(II), Mo 3 S 13 2− /MoS 4 2− first captured heavy metals and fixed into the interlayer. With the increase of concentration, Cu(II)/Pb(II) were still captured by the interlayered Mo 3 S 13 2− unlike MoS 4 -LDHs that hydroxyl groups onto LDHs began to capture Cu(II)/Pb(II). In the dynamic adsorption experiment, Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs could treat a larger volume of sewage than MoS 4 -LDHs. Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs exhibited better selectivity for Cu(II)/Pb(II) under the interference of organic and other metal ions in wastewater, and heavy metals after the treatment by Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs were more stable in the environment. Therefore, Mo 3 S 13 -LDHs could be considered as an environmentally stable adsorbent to remove heavy metals from wastewater compared to MoS 4 -LDHs.

This study introduces the development of a portable electrochemical sensor for the detection of Pb(II) and Cd(II) ions based on a screen-printed graphene electrode (SPGE) enhanced with alkalized MXene and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Experimental results reveal that the Au@Alk-MXene/SPGE electrode exhibits excellent electrical conductivity, enlarged active surface area, and efficient electron transfer capability, which enhances the electrochemical detection of Pb(II) and Cd(II) ions. Under optimal experimental conditions, the sensor demonstrates good electrochemical response and distinct stripping peaks for both ions. The linear detection range of the sensor is 5-130 μg L⁻¹ for both Pb(II) and Cd(II), with detection limits of 0.198 μg L⁻¹ for Pb(II) and 0.106 μg L⁻¹ for Cd(II). Furthermore, the sensor shows excellent repeatability with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 1.16% (n = 10) for Pb(II) and 1.25% (n = 10) for Cd(II), as well as remarkable reproducibility with RSD values of 1.56% for Pb(II) and 1.57% for Cd(II). The sensor was successfully applied to analyze tap water and lake water samples, demonstrating satisfactory recovery rates. This research shows the use of MXenes and AuNPs to modify SPGE electrodes, offering a rapid and portable electrochemical sensor for detecting Pb(II) and Cd(II) ions in water.

Guided by efficient utilization of natural plant oil and sulfur as low-cost sorbents, it is desired to tailor the porosity and composition of polysulfides to achieve their optimal applications in the management of aquatic heavy metal pollution. In this study, polysulfides derived from soybean oil and sulfur (PSSs) with improved porosity (10.2–22.9 m 2 /g) and surface oxygen content (3.1–7.0 wt.%) were prepared with respect to reaction time of 60 min, reaction temperature of 170 °C, and mass ratios of sulfur/soybean oil/NaCl/sodium citrate of 1:1:3:2. The sorption behaviors of PSSs under various hydrochemical conditions such as contact time, pH, ionic strength, coexisting cations and anions, temperature were systematically investigated. PSSs presented a fast sorption kinetic (5.0 h) and obviously improved maximum sorption capacities for Pb(II) (180.5 mg/g), Cu(II) (49.4 mg/g), and Cr(III) (37.0 mg/g) at pH 5.0 and T 298 K, in comparison with polymers made without NaCl/sodium citrate. This study provided a valuable reference for the facile preparation of functional polysulfides as well as a meaningful option for the removal of aquatic heavy metals.

The content of heavy metals is an important index to measure the quality and safety of salt. However, due to the high content of Na(I) in salt causing a large background interference, it is difficult to accurately analyze trace Pb(II) through the existing atomic absorption spectrometry. Therefore, it is of great significance to design a new solid-phase extraction (SPE) material for the removal and determination of Pb(II) from salt. Herein, using polystyrene microspheres as carriers, the chitosan-coated polystyrene SPE fillers PS@SO3H@G-CTS were synthesized by sulfonating with sulfonyl chloride, coating with chitosan and crosslinking with glutaraldehyde successively. The structure was characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, SEM, XRD and thermal stability. The SPE column prepared by PS@SO3H@G-CTS was used for the adsorption of heavy metal Pb(II) in salt, with 0.1 mol L−1 of HCl as Na(I) eluent and 2 mmol L−1 of EDTA-2Na as Pb(II) eluent. The salt concentration below 0.03 g mL−1 could better reflect the performance of column, with the recovery rate of 101.17–106.45% by standard addition. The PS@SO3H@G-CTS fillers could remove Na(I) under certain salt concentration, so as to accurately determine Pb(II) in the actual sample. Their adsorbability was undisturbed by common anions and low concentration of cations.

A reduced graphene oxide supported Au-Bi bimetallic nanoparticles (rGO/Au-Bi) have been synthesized and employed as a novel sensing platform for electrochemical determination of Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ simultaneously. The successful formation of rGO/Au-Bi nanocomposites was investigated by means of transmission electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. At the rGO/Au-Bi nanocomposites modified electrode, two well-resolved voltammetric peaks for Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ were observed in differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) measurements. Under the optimized conditions (pH 4.5, deposition potential −1.0 V, deposition time 200 s), the DPASV response currents demonstrated good linearity with the concentration of Pb 2+ (0.1–500 μg L −1 ) and Cd 2+ (0.1–300 μg L −1 ). The detection limits was 0.05 μM for Pb 2+ and 0.02 μM for Cd 2+ , respectively. In addition, the proposed electrode exhibited outstanding resistance to potentially interferents, high stability and excellent repeatability. Satisfactory application of proposed electrode was also demonstrated by the determination of Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ in real river water samples.

Dielectric nanocomposites composed of a polymer matrix with high electric breakdown strength and inorganic ferroelectric nanofillers with large maximum electric displacement (Dmax) have recently attracted much attention due to their high power density, superior flexibility, and good fatigue endurance. However, their discharge energy density and energy efficiency are limited because of the high remnant displacement (Dr) and small Dmax − Dr values of the ferroelectric fillers. Compared with ferroelectrics, antiferroelectrics exhibit much lower Dr (near zero) and far larger Dmax − Dr values, and thus if they are used as the fillers of the dielectric composite, a larger discharge energy density and higher energy efficiency may be obtained simultaneously. Based on this, in this work, Pb0.97La0.02(Zr0.50Sn0.45Ti0.05)O3 (PLZST) antiferroelectric nanoparticles (∼200 nm in diameter) coated with a dense and robust dopamine layer are prepared in order to develop dopamine-modified PLZST filler/poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (P(VDF-HFP)) polymer nanocomposites with superior energy storage properties. The experimental results indicate that optimizing the filler content leads to a small Dr (0.61 μC cm−2), large Dmax − Dr value (6.14 μC cm−2), and high electric breakdown strength (3136 kV cm−1), as a result of which, the PLZST/P(VDF-HFP) nanocomposites filled with 5 wt% dopamine-modified PLZST nanoparticles simultaneously exhibit a large discharge energy density of 9.39 J cm−3 and high energy efficiency of 82%. These energy storage properties are superior to those of most ferroelectric filler (including nanowires and nanofibers prepared by complicated methods)/polymer nanocomposites with a single-layer structure. Our work not only proves that, antiferroelectric nanoparticles are excellent fillers that can be comparable to, or even better than, ferroelectric nanowires and nanofibers prepared by very complicated methods, for energy-storage inorganic/polymer dielectric composites, but also provides a convenient and effective way to prepare and design flexible dielectric capacitors with superior energy storage capacity.

In this work, a novel method for sensitive detecting heavy metal Pb (II) in aquatic products was developed using UiO-66-NH 2 @tannic acid (UiO-66-NH 2 @TA) solid-phase extraction combined with laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). UiO-66-NH 2 @TA adsorbent could effectively extract Pb (II) from the digestive solution of aquatic products. Characterization of the morphology of the adsorbent was performed using transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The optimal experimental conditions for LIBS detection, including sample preparation, substrate type, laser energy, and delay time, were investigated. The results showed that the strongest Pb I 405.7 nm spectral signal can be obtained by dripping UiO-66-NH 2 @TA adsorbent onto a silicon wafer for LIBS testing. The limit of detection and limit of quantification for Pb (II) in aqueous solution were 0.18 μg/mL and 0.61 μg/mL, respectively. The calibration curve demonstrated good sensitivity and accuracy for Pb (II) detection with a correlation coefficient of 0.9905. Spiked recovery experiments on large yellow croakers and scallops yielded recovery rates of 75.25 % - 99.08 %, which was consistent with the results from atomic absorption spectrometry. This study underscores the potential of the solid-phase extraction combined with laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy for practical application in food safety monitoring, demonstrating its effectiveness and reliability in detecting Pb (II) in aquatic products.

The high performance detection of heavy metal ions in crucial water sources is of great significance to protect human health and life safety. Herein, a novel ratiometric detection system towards trace Cd(II) and Pb(II) has been established by utilizing in-situ bismuth modified nitrogen rich porous carbon/boron doped diamond (Bi/NC/BDD) composite electrode. Benefiting from the interconnected hierarchical micro/mesoporous structure and N-embedded partially graphitized carbon matrix of NC modifier, as well as the formation of Bi-alloy, an excellent sensitivity with low limit of detection (LOD, 0.24 μg L −1 for Cd(II) and 0.37 μg L −1 for Pb(II)) is realized. Moreover, the built-in normalization function of Bi(III) reference signal effectively improves the reliability and reproducibility of detection results. This work provides an important guidance for the development of quality environmental monitoring electrodes.
