In order to improve the physicochemical properties of heavy metal adsorbents, researchers developed a novel composite microsphere material (SEI) by incorporating Sepiolite (Sep) and cross-linked polyethyleneimine (PEI) with sodium alginate (SA) as a carrier. The stability of the SEI under normal use conditions was high by thermogravimetric analysis, and -COOH, -OH, and -NH2 functional groups were detected by FTIR, which were confirmed to be involved in adsorption. It was found that the adsorption rate of SEI on Pb(II) and Cd(II) obeyed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, while the adsorption pattern was closely related to the Langmuir equation. Notably, the maximum adsorption capacity of SEI for Pb(II) and Cd(II) was 1099.93 mg/g and 112.89 mg/g, respectively, at 30 degrees C. In addition, thermodynamic analyses showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous, with entropy increase along with heat absorption. After six adsorption and desorption cycles, the removal of Pb(II) and Cd(II) by SEI remained above 90 %. These findings suggest that SEI is a promising and environmentally friendly material for the removal of Pb(II) and Cd(II).
In this study, a fresh three-dimensional microsphere adsorbent (CATP@SA3) was successfully synthesized by Attapulgite (ATP) and combining Chitosan (CS), incorporating them into a Sodium alginate (SA) solution, and crosslinking them in a CaCl2 solution. Multiple analyses, including XRD, TGA, FTIR, XPS, SEM-EDS, and BET were utilized to comprehensively characterize the structural makeup of CATP@SA3. These analyses revealed the presence of beneficial functional groups like hydroxyl, amino, and carboxyl groups that enhance the adsorption efficiency in adsorption procedures. CATP@SA3 was evaluated by studying different factors, including material ratio, contact time, dosage, solution pH, Pb(II) concentration, temperature, ionic strength, and aqueous environment. Three adsorption models, including kinetic, isotherm, and thermodynamic, were fitted to the experimental data. The findings demonstrated that the maximum Pb(II) adsorption capacity of CATP@SA3 was 1081.36 mg/g, with a removal rate that exceeded 70 % even after 5 cycles of use. Furthermore, correlation adsorption models revealed that the adsorption process of Pb(II) with CATP@SA3 was driven by a chemical predominantly reaction.
Chitosan (CS) is commonly used as an adsorbent for removing Cu(II) from water, but it has drawbacks such as solubility in dilute acid, difficulty in recycling in powder form, and short service life. This study utilized sodium alginate (SA) as a gel carrier to encapsulate CS, combined with silicon dioxide (SiO2) to improve mechanical stability. The preparation of CS/SA/SiO2 (SSC1.0) involved physical blending, CaCl2 cross-linking, and freeze-drying. Characterization methods such as SEM-EDS, FTIR, BET, and XRD were used to analyze the structural composition of SSC1.0. The material exhibited a folded surface, porous internal cross-section, nitrogen/oxygen-containing functional groups, and thermal stability in high temperatures and various aqueous environments. The adsorption performance of SSC1.0 on Cu(II) was evaluated under different conditions, showing a maximum adsorption capacity of 47.50 mg/g. The material maintained a removal rate above 70 % after 5 cycles. SSC1.0 also showed the highest removal rate of Cu(II) when applied to mine wastewater treatment. Adsorption modeling indicated that the process was driven by chemical reactions and was spontaneous and heat-absorbing.’
In this study, Fe-Mn oxide/zeolite composites were synthesized through the coprecipitation and utilized as an adsorbent for the removal of copper ions from aqueous solution. The physico-chemical properties of the adsorbent were disclosed by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Scanning electron mi-croscopy, automatic micropore analyzer, and surface potential (Zeta) investigation, demonstrating the successful synthesis of the adsorbent. The abundant negative charge and hydroxyl functional group as well as pore structure on the adsorbent surface were very conducive to the removal of copper ions. The effects of adsorbent dosage, the initial concentration of copper ions, the initial pH, and the contact time on adsorption were investigated in batch adsorption experiments. The adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isothermal theory,which showed that the adsorption process was monolayer chemisorption. The complexation reaction of functional groups that contain oxygen, electrostatic attraction, precipitation, and physical adsorption are the primary components of the removal of copper ions mechanism. The results showed that when pH = 6, the leaching concentration of iron and manganese was lower than 0.1 mg/L. In addition, after five cycles of test, the adsorbent could still guarantee 88% of the previous adsorption capacity. The adsorbent exhibits exceptional stability, which is crucial for its use in real water bodies. Thus, this research offered a handy strategy for copper ions removal from aqueous solution.
Bi4O5Br2 material exhibits excellent performance in photocatalytic degradation of antibiotics, but high recombination rate of photoexcited electron-hole pairs limits its photocatalytic activity. Attapulgite (ATP) is an excellent candidate for load type catalyst due to its larger specific surface area. As a new type of carbon-based nanomaterials, carbon dots (CDs) have important application prospects in catalysis and other fields. Herein, Z-scheme CDs/Bi4O5Br2/ATP composite photocatalyst loaded with varied proportions of CDs was synthesized by dynamic adsorption method, which demonstrated excellent photocatalytic degradation performance by lowering the recombination rate of photoexcited electron-hole pairs. Ciprofloxacin degradation efficiency by 3 wt% CDs/Bi4O5Br2/ATP can reach up to 90% within 120 min under simulated sunlight, in addition, the 3 wt% CDs/Bi4O5Br2/ATP composite photocatalyst has good stability. As a result, our research helps to prepare high-efficiency Z-scheme heterojunction and contributes to study the degradation of antibiotics in the aquatic environment.
In this study, magnetic composite microspheres (SCFP) were prepared by cross-linking chitosan (CS), sodium alginate (SA), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), and ferric tetraoxide (Fe3O4) in a CaCl2 solution. CS and Fe3O4 were encapsulated in gel spheres formed by cross-linking SA with Ca(II), while PVA facilitated the dispersion of CS in SA. SCFP was utilized as an adsorbent to remove Cu(II) from water. The effects of the initial pH of the solution, SCFP dosage, and initial Cu(II) concentration on the adsorption efficiency were investigated through batch experiments. The results demonstrated that the adsorption capacity reached 58.260 mg/g (removal rate = 97.1%) after 100 min of adsorption at a pH of 5. The removal rate remained above 90% even after 6 cycles of the cycling experiment. The incorporation of CS with other functional materials allowed SCFP to compensate for its inherent drawbacks such as low mechanical strength, poor acid resistance, and short service life. The pseudo-first-order kinetic model and Freundlich adsorption isotherm provided better descriptions of the adsorption process. A comprehensive analysis was conducted on the structure and adsorption mechanism of SCFP using characterization techniques such as SEM-EDS, FTIR, BET, XRD, etc. In summary, SCFP has the potential to be an excellent environmentally friendly material for the removal of Cu(II).

Furthermore, the highest kinetic constant of the 3wt% CDs/Bi4O5Br2/ATP composite photocatalyst (K=0.0178min-1) is 6.77 times that of pure Bi4O5Br2 (K=0.00263min-1). As a result, our research helps to prepare high-efficiency Z-scheme heterojunctions and contributes to the understanding of antibiotic degradation in aquatic environments.

Carbon dots (CDs) and Bi-riched bismuth oxyhalide have great potential in the field of photocatalysis. Here, a series of CDs/Bi4O5Br2 at different loading ratios were successfully synthesized by solvothermal method. Experiments of visible light degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) showed that 3 wt% CDs/Bi4O5Br2 had the highest activity (5.39 times that of Bi4O5Br2) and the degradation rate reached 98%. The samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS, Mapping, UV-vis DRS, Raman, and PL spectra. The absorption edge of 3 wt% CDs/Bi4O5Br2 was red-shifted from 455 nm to 580 nm compared with Bi4O5Br2. The enhancement of photocatalytic activity was mainly due to the fact that the addition of CDs not only broadened the photo-response range, but reduced the recombination rate of photo-induced carriers with good electron transport interfaces formed.
