In order to reduce the difficulty and risk of operation, decrease the preparation time and improve the adsorption performance of magnetic nano-silicon adsorbent with core-shell structure, a carboxylated CoFeO@SiO was prepared by EDTA-functionalized method using a safe, mild and simple hydrothermal method. The results show that the prepared material of CoFeO@SiO-EDTA has a maximum adsorption capacity of 103.3 mg/g for mercury ions (Hg(II)) at pH = 7. The adsorption process of Hg(II) is a chemical reaction involving chelation and single-layer adsorption, and follows the pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir adsorption isotherm models. Moreover, the removal of Hg(II) is a spontaneous and exothermic reaction. The material characterization, before and after adsorption, shows that CoFeO@SiO-EDTA has excellent recyclability, hydrothermal stability and fully biodegradable properties. To summarize, it is a potential adsorption material for removing heavy metals from aqueous solutions in practical applications.
为降低操作难度与风险,缩短制备时间并提高核壳结构磁性纳米硅吸附剂的吸附性能,采用安全、温和且简便的水热法,通过乙二胺四乙酸(EDTA)功能化法制备了羧基化CoFeO@SiO。结果表明,制备的CoFeO@SiO-EDTA材料在pH = 7时对汞离子(Hg(II))的最大吸附容量为103.3 mg/g。Hg(II)的吸附过程是一个涉及螯合和单层吸附的化学反应,遵循准二级动力学和朗缪尔吸附等温线模型。此外,Hg(II)的去除是一个自发的放热反应。吸附前后的材料表征表明,CoFeO@SiO-EDTA具有优异的可回收性、水热稳定性和完全可生物降解性。综上所述,它是实际应用中从水溶液中去除重金属的潜在吸附材料。
