Fabrication of chitosan/magnetite-graphene oxide composites as a novel bioadsorbent for adsorption and detoxification of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution.

ABSTRACT: By utilizing the synergistic effect of chitosan (CS), magnetite (Fe₃O₄) particles, and graphene oxide (GO), a series of efficient and eco-friendly chitosan/magnetite-graphene oxide (CS/MGO) composites were fabricated through a facile chemical route. First, Fe₃O₄ particles were chemically deposited on the surface of GO to fabricate MGO hybrid. Then, chitosan was attached on MGO sheets, assembling to CS/MGO composites. According to the results of characterization, the covalent Fe-O-C bonds, electrostatic attraction, and hydrogen bonding between GO, Fe₃O₄, and chitosan ensure excellent structural stability and physico-chemical properties. The adsorption of Cr(VI) onto CS/MGO composites was also carried out under various conditions (content of CS, pH, initial concentration, contact time, and temperature). The CS/MGO composites possess high removal capacity for Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. Moreover, results also suggested that the CS/MGO composites had a strong reducing action for Cr(VI). When adsorption occurred, Cr(VI) and Cr(III) were simultaneously removed by CS/MGO composites. In addition, CS/MGO composites could retain good Cr(VI) removal efficiency after reuse over five cycles. CS/MGO composites are expected to have potential applications as easily regenerative bioadsorbents for Cr(VI) polluted water cleanup.

Adsorption mechanism of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs composites.

Project description:Graphene oxide/polyamidoamine dendrimers (GO/PAMAMs) composites were used to remove Cr(VI) from simulated effluents, the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs were systematically investigated. The results showed that the optimum pH value was 2.5, the removal percentage reached 90.7% for 30 mg/L of Cr(VI) within 120 min. The adsorption process was well described by pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The maximum adsorption capacities of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs were found to be 131.58, 183.82 and 211.42 mg/g at 293.15, 303.15 and 313.15 K, respectively, which were calculated from the Langmuir model equation. The adsorption thermodynamic parameters indicate that the adsorption of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs is a spontaneous endothermic process. The XPS analysis reveals the adsorption and removal mechanism of Cr(VI) on GO/PAMAMs that first the Cr(VI) binds to the protonated amine of GO/PAMAMs, then Cr(VI) be reduced to Cr(III) with the assistance of π-electrons on the carbocyclic six-membered ring of GO in GO/PAMAMs, and then Cr(III) was released into solution under the electrostatic repulsion between the Cr(III) and the protonated amine groups.

Aminated EVOH nanofiber membranes for Cr(vi) adsorption from aqueous solution.

Project description:Ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) nanofiber membranes were prepared by melt-blending extrusion with cellulose acetate butyrate ester (CAB) as the matrix and a high-speed flow deposition process. Then, aminated-EVOH (l-Lys/EVOH, Cy/l-Lys/EVOH and DETA/EVOH) nanofiber membranes were prepared for hexavalent chromium [Cr(vi)] removal by facile chemical modification on the surface of EVOH nanofiber membranes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were carried out to test the morphology and structure of aminated-EVOH nanofiber membranes. Adsorption experiments suggested that amination was beneficial to adsorption, and the optimal pH for prepared membranes to Cr removal was 2.0. Adsorption kinetics analysis revealed that the adsorption process was successfully fitted with a Pseudo-second-order model. The Freundlich isothermal model well described the adsorption isotherm data. A thermodynamic study suggested that the adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. Aminated-EVOH nanofiber membranes exhibited excellent reusability for Cr removal. The Cr adsorption efficiency of DETA/EVOH nanofiber membranes retained up to 98.73% of the initial adsorption after 6 successive adsorption-desorption cycles.

Fabrication of attapulgite/magnetic aminated chitosan composite as efficient and reusable adsorbent for Cr (VI) ions.

Project description:An efficient composite was constructed based on aminated chitosan (NH2Cs), attapulgite (ATP) clay and magnetic Fe3O4 for adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) ions. The as-fabricated ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs composite was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermal Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Zeta potential (ZP), Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method (BET) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS). A significant improve in the adsorption profile was established at pH 2 in the order of ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs(1:3) > ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs(1:1) > ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs(3:1) > Fe3O4-NH2Cs > ATP. The maximum removal (%) of Cr(VI) exceeded 94% within a short equilibrium time of 60 min. The adsorption process obeyed the pseudo 2nd order and followed the Langmuir isotherm model with a maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 294.12 mg/g. In addition, thermodynamics studies elucidated that the adsorption process was spontaneous, randomness and endothermic process. Interestingly, the developed adsorbent retained respectable adsorption properties with acceptable removal efficiency exceeded 58% after ten sequential cycles of reuse. Besides, the results hypothesize that the adsorption process occurs via electrostatic interactions, reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and ion-exchanging. These findings substantiate that the ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs composite could be effectively applied as a reusable adsorbent for removing of Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solutions.

Facile Fabrication of ZnMgAl/LDH/Algae Composites as a Potential Adsorbent for Cr(VI) Ions from Water: Fabrication and Equilibrium Studies.

Project description:In order to improve the adsorption capacity of natural layered double hydroxyl (LDH) materials, the natural organic sources such as algae containing hydroxyl groups, amino groups, peptide connections, and alginate structures were used to improve LDH for the preparation of ZnMgAl LDH-algae composites (LDH-Ax). The structure of prepared composites was established and characterized via various techniques such as scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The LDH-A2 sample displayed the highest efficiency for Cr(VI) removal, which reached to 99% at the optimum conditions. The prepared composite LDH-A2 showed high stability and reusability (91.7%) after five cycles. The kinetic studies revealed that the Cr uptake by LDH-A1 is described as pseudo-first order, while the case of LDH-A2 is described as pseudo-second order. This study reported that the easily synthesized LDH-Ax has an interesting environmental approval process to eliminate Cr ions from aqueous media quickly and effectively.

Fabrication of Carbon-Alumina Composites via Catalytic Pyrolysis of Pine Sawdust on Aluminum Dross for Cr(VI) Removal.

Project description:Carbon-alumina composites are prepared for the efficient removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater. Pristine and acid-treated alumina dross (AD and AAD) are copyrolyzed with pine sawdust to form the respective composites, ADPC and AADPC. Excellent absorption properties with Cr(VI) removal efficiency of 95.08% are demonstrated at 60 °C for an initial concentration of 6 μg/mL. The composites combine the merits of char, which provides a high surface-to-volume ratio with abundant functional groups on the surface, and alumina, which provides metal ions for coprecipitation. Carbon structures of pine, char, and composite were analyzed semiquantitatively using 13C NMR by a curve-fitting method. Cr(VI) adsorption is accurately described with chemisorption by the Langmuir isotherm model and a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The results show that AADPC has more alcohol hydroxyl groups substituted to glucosyl units in amorphous cellulose assigned to the peak at 80 ppm and hemicellulose assigned to peaks at 97 and 101 ppm. Also, it has more phenolic groups in lignin distributed at syringyl units assigned to peaks at 129 and 146 ppm. These oxygen-containing functional groups have a significant influence on Cr(VI) adsorption and reduction to Cr(III) governed by the mechanisms of diffusion, adsorption, complexation, reduction, and coprecipitation. The results of this work provide a new direction for the reuse of biomass and industrial solid wastes to fabricate higher value-added products, i.e., adsorption materials for Cr(VI) removal and stabilization.

Influence of Magnetic Nanoparticles on Modified Polypyrrole/m-Phenylediamine for Adsorption of Cr(VI) from Aqueous Solution.

Project description:A novel, modified polypyrrole/m-phenylediamine (PPy-mPD) composite, decorated with magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles, and prepared via an in-situ oxidative polymerisation, was investigated. The PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was employed for the removal of highly toxic oxyanion hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) from an aqueous solution. The structure and successful formation of the PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was confirmed and investigated using various techniques. The presence of Fe3O4 was confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy, with an appearance of Fe lattice fringes. The estimation of the saturation magnetisation of the nanocomposite, using a vibrating sample magnetometer, was observed to be 6.6 emu/g. In batch adsorption experiments, PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite (25 mg) was able to remove 99.6% of 100 mg/L of Cr(VI) at pH 2 and 25 °C. Adsorption isotherms were investigated at different Cr(VI) concentration (100-600 mg/L) and temperature (15-45 °C). It was deduced that adsorption follows the Langmuir model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 555.6 mg/g for Cr(VI) removal. Furthermore, isotherm data were used to calculate thermodynamic values for Gibbs free energy, enthalpy change and entropy change, which indicated that Cr(VI) adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic in nature. Adsorption-desorption experiments revealed that the nanocomposite was usable for two consecutive cycles with no significant loss of adsorption capacity. This research demonstrates the application potential for the fascinating properties of PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite as a highly efficient adsorbent for the removal of heavy metal ions from industrial wastewater.

Effective Adsorption and Sensitive Detection of Cr(VI) by Chitosan/Cellulose Nanocrystals Grafted with Carbon Dots Composite Hydrogel.

Project description:Due to its lethal effect on the human body and other creatures, Cr(VI) ions have attained widespread public attention, and an effective adsorbent for removing Cr(VI) ions is vital. Chitosan (CS)/cellulose nanocrystals grafted with carbon dots (CNCD) composite hydrogel with strong sorption ability and sensitive detection ability for Cr(VI) was formed. The cellulose nanocrystals (CN) offered a natural skeleton for assembling 3D porous structures, and then improved the sorption ability for Cr(VI); moreover, carbon dots (CD) acted as a fluorescent probe for Cr(VI) and provided Cr(VI) adsorption sites. With a maximum adsorption capacity of 217.8 mg/g, the CS/CNCD composite hydrogel exhibited efficient adsorption properties. Meanwhile, with a detection limit of 0.04 μg/L, this hydrogel was used for selective and quantitative detection of Cr(VI). The determination of Cr(VI) was based on the inner filter effect (IFE) and static quenching. This hydrogel retained its effective adsorption ability even after four repeated regenerations. Furthermore, the economic feasibility of the CS/CNCD composite hydrogel over activated carbon was confirmed using cost analysis. This study provided one new method for producing low-cost adsorbents with effective sorption and sensitive detection for Cr(VI).

Preparation of Graphene Oxide-Maghemite-Chitosan Composites for the Adsorption of Europium Ions from Aqueous Solutions

Project description:The adsorption of Eu(III) on composites synthesised from graphene oxide (GO), maghemite (MGH), and chitosan (CS) has been studied using different approaches. The physicochemical and morphological characteristics of the composites GO-MGH, GO-CS, GO-MGH-CS I, II, and III were determined by XRD, Mössbauer spectroscopy, FTIR, Raman spectroscopy, and TEM. According to the results of batch experiments, the maximum experimental adsorption capacity was 52, 54, 25, 103, and 102 mg/g for GO-MGH, GO-CS, GO-MGH-CS I, II, and III, respectively. The data obtained are in better agreement with the Langmuir, pseudo-second-order, and pseudo-first-order models only for GO-MGH. Thus, the adsorption of Eu(III) on the composites was a favourable, monolayer, and occurred at homogeneous sites. The nature of adsorption is chemical and, in the case of GO-MGH, physical. Tests of the composites in natural waters showed a high removal efficiency for Eu(III), Pu(IV), and Am(III), ranging from 74 to 100%. The ANFIS model has quite good predictive ability, as shown by the values for R2, MSE, SSE, and ARE. The GO-MGH-CS composites with the high adsorption capacity could be promising candidates for the removal of Eu(III) and the pre-concentration of Pu(IV) and Am(III) from natural waters.

Preparation of N-Doped Carbon Nanosheets from Sewage Sludge for Adsorption Studies of Cr(VI) from Aqueous Solution.

Project description:Porous activated carbon with specific morphology and structure are of particular importance for waste water treatment, especially for the adsorption of toxic hexavalent chromium Cr(VI). However, the scalable and cheap production of such absorbents still suffer a grand challenge. Herein, a new type of N-doped nanosheet was innovatively prepared from easily available and low-cost sewage sludge via a facile and recyclable KOH activation method. The N-doped porous carbon nanosheets (N-SAC) produced by introduction of KOH and dicyandiamide, which performed favourable features for metal ions adsorption (93.2% for Cr(VI)) due to its high specific surface area, tuneable pore size distributions and good hydrophilicity. Additionally, the capacity also remained high after two cycles of adsorption by thermal regeneration, with 90.8% removal rate. The DFT calculation also approved that the doping of N could optimize the Mulliken charges distribution and improve the HOMO energy and improve the adsorption ability of N-SAC. This original proposal may inspire new possibility of creating porous carbon absorbents in a recyclable method.

One-pot synthesis of CdS/metal-organic framework aerogel composites for efficient visible photocatalytic reduction of aqueous Cr(vi).

Project description:Metal-organic framework aerogels (MOAs) embedded with CdS (CdS/MOA(Cr)) synthesized via a facile one-pot solvothermal method have a larger surface area than pristine MOA(Cr) and the post-synthesized composite. CdS/MOA(Cr) exhibited 5 times enhancement in the photocatalytic activity than that of pure CdS for Cr(vi) reduction under visible light without adding any sacrificial agent, due to the larger surface area and photosensitazation of MOA(Cr).
