    Chitosan functionalized iron nanosheet for enhanced removal of As(III) and Sb(III): Synergistic effect and mechanism
    Neutral trivalent arsenic (As(III)) and antimony (Sb(III)) species are more toxic and harder to remove from wastewater environment than their pentavalent counterparts. Herein, a natural polysaccharide chitosan (CS) functionalized iron nanosheet using an in-situ doping method was designed, aiming to attract As(III) and Sb(III) from aqueous solution. The surface area of the optimum sample was 111.8 cm2/g, a good dispersion of the iron nanocomposite was observed by the TEM and element mapping characterization. In the batch adsorption experiment the factors of doping contents of CS and solution properties (pH, co-existing anions and humic acid) were studied systematically. The result showed that 0.5 wt% CS functionalized iron nanosheet had higher removal capacity, affinity, selectivity and reusability for Sb(III) than As(III). The optimum adsorption were achieved at the adsorbent dosage of 0.4 g/L at a wide pH values, and the maximum adsorption capacity were 108.6 and 138.8 mg/g for As(III) and Sb(III) calculated from Langmuir non-linear fitting, respectively. Both As(III) and Sb(III) removal were independent on pH values, indicating electrostatic attraction was not the dominate removal mechanism. The detailed removal mechanism was confirmed by a synergetic interaction of As-Fe/Sb-Fe complexes and hydrogen bonding using the combined characterization of FTIR and XPS spectra. This study demonstrated that the CS functionalized iron nanosheet with the properties of environmental friendly, low-cost and facile preparation could have potential applications in water purification.

    Development of a magnetic core-shell Fe3O4@TA@UiO-66 microsphere for removal of arsenic(III) and antimony(III) from aqueous solution
    Removal of trivalent species of As and Sb from wastewater is crucial due to their more toxic and mobile properties. In this study, a novel magnetic core-shell microsphere Fe3O4@TA@UiO-66 was developed via in-situ crystal growth of UiO-66 around the magnetic Fe3O4 modified by Tannic Acid (TA). Characterization of the microsphere by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) confirmed that UiO-66 was adhered on the surface of Fe3O4 functionalized by TA. Adsorption experiments showed that the magnetic Fe3O4@TA@UiO-66 had high adsorption capacity for As(III) and Sb(III) and could be rapidly separated from aqueous media within two minutes after treatment. The adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherms were described well by the pesudo-second order model and Langmuir model, respectively. In addition, the composite exhibited excellent removal performance for As(III) and Sb(III) in a broad solution chemistry environment, including pH and co-existing anions. Based on X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurement, we proposed that the removal mechanism was mainly controlled through a synergistic interaction of surface complexation and hydrogen bonding. This study indicates the potential of the magnetic microsphere to be used as an effective material for the removal of As(III) and Sb(III) from water.
