Heavy metal ions removal from industrial wastewater using magnetic nanoparticles (MNP)
Abstract
Abstract A novel iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) grafted on hyperbranched polyglycerol (HPG) polymer were synthesized, characterized and tested for heavy metals (Ni, Cu and AL) removals from secondary effluent industrial wastewater (SEIWW). The effect of water matrix (organic matter, nutrient and pH) on removal efficiencies were evaluated. The heavy metal adsorption mechanism was investigated from adsorption isotherm and kinetic point-of-view. HPG-MNPs was successfully applied adsorbent for heavy metal removal from SEIWW. The adsorption process is spontaneous, pH dependence and showed high Ni, Cu and AL removal efficiency from water solutions. The magnetic separation process was very fast and took only 35 s. Adsorption isotherms were successfully fitted to Langmuir and Frindluich isotherms with a maximum equilibrium capacity (qmax) of 0.700, 0.451 and 0.790 mg.mg-1 for Cu, Ni and Al, respectively. The pseudo-second-order model described well the adsorption kinetic data suggesting the sorbent connects to adsorbent by two or more steps including intra-particle diffusion. Through characterization tests, it is evident HPG-MNPs are uniformly dispersed in the solution, have a size in the nanometer range and have a spherical morphology. The removal efficiencies were not affected by the organic matter and phosphorous content of the wastewater but increasing the concentration of nitrogen reduced the percentage of heavy metal removals. The excellent reproducibility of the HPG-MNPs indicate they can be a promising adsorption material for the removal and separation of different heavy metals from aqueous solutions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
