Comparative study of graphene oxide, activated carbon and carbon nanotubes as adsorbents for copper decontamination
Abstract
This paper presents a comparative study of Cu(II) decontamination by three different carbonaceous materials, i.e., graphene oxide, multiwalled carbon nanotubes, and activated carbon. The three carbonaceous materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, N2-BET surface area analysis, and potentiometric acid-base titrations in detail. Also, Cu(II) adsorption on the three types of carbonaceous materials as a function of pH and Cu(II) ion concentration were investigated. The constant capacitance model was used to determine the appropriate surface reactions of Cu(II) adsorption on carbonaceous materials with the aid of FITEQL 4.0 software. In addition, how the surface area and the total concentration of acidic functional groups influencing the adsorption capacities of the three carbonaceous materials for Cu(II) removal were elucidated. The results have an important role in predicting the adsorption capacity of surface modified carbonaceous materials.

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.
