Modified magnetic chitosan materials for heavy metal adsorption: a review.

Magnetic chitosan materials have the characteristics of both chitosan and magnetic particle nuclei, showing the characteristics of easy separation and recovery, strong adsorption capacity and high mechanical strength, and have received extensive attention in adsorption, especially in the treatment of heavy metal ions. In order to further improve its performance, many studies have modified magnetic chitosan materials. This review discusses the strategies for the preparation of magnetic chitosan using coprecipitation, crosslinking, and other methods in detail.

Synthesis and visible-light photocatalytic degradation of AgPO/AgBr/hydroxyapatite ternary nanocomposites prepared from oyster shells.

In this paper, a new type of AgPO/AgBr/hydroxyapatite (HAP) composite was successfully prepared from oyster shells and silver nitrate by a hydrothermal method. The samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, electron spin resonance and other precision instruments, and their catalytic activity was characterized by visible light degradation of methylene blue (MB). The experimental results show that the AgPO/AgBr/HAP photocatalyst has a nanoscale rod-like structure and excellent photodegradation performance.
