One-pot synthesis of a novel mesoporous hydroxyl oxidize iron functional Na-zirconium phosphate (FeOOH-NaZrH(PO)·HO) composites was firstly characterized and investigated its Co(II) adsorption from aqueous solution. Compared to NaZrH(PO)·HO (65.7 mg⋅g), the maximum Co(II) adsorption capacity of FeOOH-NaZrH(PO)·HO was improved to be 95.1 mg⋅g. BET verified the mesoporous structures of FeOOH-NaZrH(PO)·HO with a larger pore volume than NaZrH(PO)·HO. High pH values, initial Co(II) concentration, and temperature benefited the Co(II) adsorption. Kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics indicated an endothermic, spontaneous chemisorption process. FeOOH-NaZrH(PO)·HO has a better Co(II) adsorption selectivity than that of NaZrH(PO)·HO. In particular, FeOOH-NaZrH(PO)·HO exhibited an outstanding reusability after ten cycles of tests. The main possible mechanism for adsorbents uptake Co(II) involved in ion exchange, electrostatic interaction, and -OH, Zr-O bond coordination based on FTIR and XPS analysis. This work presents a feasible strategy to prepare novel modified zirconium phosphate composites for extracting Co(II) from solutions and providing a new insight into the understanding of Co(II) adsorption in the real nuclear Co(II)-containing wastewater.

A novel nanocomposite magnetic hydrogel was synthesized based on κ-carrageenan, acrylic acid, and activated carbon as an absorbent for removing heavy metal ions from aqueous solution. FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and vibration sample magnetometer (VSM) were employed to confirm the structure of the nanocomposite hydrogels. The effects of contact time, pH, particle size, temperature, and metal ion concentration on the metal ion adsorption were investigated.

N-termini Cyano group (CN) in metal hexacyanoferrates (MHCF) have been identified as specific-affinity sites for palladium (Pd), but C-termini CN do not effectively serve as Pd adsorption sites due to their stronger bonds with the metal ligands (M), which reduces the activity and density of CN. Herein, the optimization of directional coordination of cyano group C/N-termini by modulating the electronic structure of the M (Fe, Co, and Ni) in MHCF was investigated to reinforce the Pd recovery. Spectroscopic analyses and DFT calculations revealed that NiHCF exhibited N-site mono-coordination, whereas CoHCF displayed C-site mono-coordination due to spin-exchange interactions, leading to the strengthened N-Co bonds and weakened Fe-C bonds.

The recovery of Co(II), Mn(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) from black mass e-waste solutions through cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) and nanocrystals (CNCs) was investigated. These materials were synthetized by TEMPO-oxidation followed by high-pressure homogenization, and acid hydrolysis, respectively. The NC characterization included the measurement of consistency, cationic demand, carboxylic content, dissolved amorphous cellulose, and transmittance at λ = 600 nm.

While photocatalytic CO reduction has been intensively investigated, reports on the influence of anions coordinated to catalytic metal sites on CO photoreduction remain limited. Herein, different coordinated anions (F, Cl, OAc, and NO ) around single Co sites installed on bipyridine-based three-component covalent organic frameworks (COFs) were synthesized, affording TBD-COF-Co-X (X = F, Cl, OAc, and NO), for photocatalytic CO reduction. Notably, the presence of these coordinated anions on the Co sites significantly influences the photocatalytic performance, where TBD-COF-Co-F exhibits superior activity to its counterparts.

This research utilized tetraethylenepentamine-functionalized HY cubic zeolite as an adsorbent to effectively remove heavy metals from aqueous solutions. The adsorbent was characterized using FT-IR, XRD, TGA, FE-SEM, and EDS-MAP techniques. The synthesis aimed to optimize and evaluate the removal efficiency of Pb(II), Cr(III), Co(II), and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions by investigating key parameters, including initial pH, concentration, adsorbent dosage, and contact time.
