Herein, a waste cotton fabrics-based nanosystem was fabricated to simultaneously remove copper (Cu(II)) and lead ions (Pb(II)) from water and soil. Therein, carboxyl-functionalized zinc oxide microsphere (ZnO-COOH) with peanut shape was carried by cotton fabric (CF) to get CF/ZnO-COOH nanosystem. CF/ZnO-COOH with a good foldable property possessed a high removal capacity for Cu(II) and Pb(II) via electrostatic attraction and chelation. The result indicated that their removal efficiencies of CF/ZnO-COOH could reach over 95% after 2 h. The adsorption process was consistent with Langmuir (R = 0.9905 of Cu(II) and R = 0.9846 of Pb(II)) and pseudo-second-order kinetic models (R = 0.9999 of Cu(II) and R = 0.9999 of Pb(II)). The thermodynamic data showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic. Additionally, CF/ZnO-COOH also possessed a high fixation ability for Cu(II) and Pb(II) in sand-soil column, especially for Pb(II) (15 cm, 0.4 μg kg). Therefore, this wok provides an environmentally friendly and efficient way to remove Cu(II) and Pb(II) from water and soil concurrently.

Nine metal complexes formed by three symmetric β-diketonates (, acetylacetonate (), 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-acetylacetonate (), and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-dionate ()) and three metal ions (with three different coordination geometries, , Be - tetrahedral, Cu - square planar, and Pb - "swing" square pyramidal) were investigated. The study combines structural analyses, vibrational spectroscopic techniques, and quantum chemical calculations with the aim of bridging crystal structure, electronic structure, molecular topology, and far-infrared (FIR) spectroscopic characteristics. The effect of intramolecular interactions on the structural, electronic, and spectroscopic features is the center of this study.

Sulfur nanoparticles (SNPs) and their composites are promising for heavy metal adsorption, yet current SNPs often lack surface S, leading to low affinity toward heavy metal and ease of aggregation. Here, we report a simple light-driven method for facile prepare SNPs with surfaces enriched with S and in-situ load them onto graphene oxide (GO) to fabricate GO-S composites. Under illumination, the O generated by photosensitizer phloxine B was able to oxidize S into elemental SNPs.

Improving the adsorption capacity of materials for pollutants by means of modification is an important direction in the research of water treatment technology. To improve the applicability of sodium alginate composites in the field of adsorption, magnetic sodium alginate-based hydrogel microsphere adsorbent material FeO@SA/PEI-Fe (FSPF) was synthesized in a single step by using polyethyleneimine grafting modification of sodium alginate by sol-gel method. The material was used for the removal of direct blue GL (DB 200) and direct date red B (DR 13) from simulated wastewater, as well as Cu(II) and Pb(II) from simulated wastewater with heavy metal ions.

Heavy metal and nitrogen contaminations are serious concerns in aquatic environments. Marichromatium gracile YL28, a marine purple sulfur bacterium, has shown great potential as a bioremediation agent for removing inorganic nitrogen from marine water. This study further investigated its ability to simultaneously absorb heavy metals, including Pb(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Cr(VI), and remove inorganic nitrogen.

Fast-paced global industrialization due to population growth poses negative water implications, such as pollution by heavy metals. Phytoremediation is deemed as an efficient and environmentally friendly alternative which utilizes different types of hyperaccumulator plants known as macrophytes for the removal of heavy metal pollutants from contaminated water. In this study, the removal of Cu(II), Ni(II), Pb(II), and Cd(II) heavy metal ions contaminated water was studied by using an aquatic plant, Persicaria amphibia (L.
