被引用回数：293 パーセンタイル：99.54(Engineering, Environmental)The detection and removal of lead (Pb(II)) ions in water is essential for both human health and the natural environment. This study reported the feasibility of the large-pore diameter nano-adsorbent for capturing low level Pb(II) ions from aqueous solutions in a batch system, in order to comply with the toxicity limit for discharging wastewaters. The proposed Pb(II) detection system has good characteristics with high sensitivity and selectivity, robustness, easy operation, portability and use of a small sample volume. The competing ions effect was assessed with spiked samples and the nano-adsorbent exhibited high selectivity to Pb(II) ions with optimum color formation and the detection procedure can be easily applied to rapid on-site Pb(II) ions monitoring.

被引用回数：231 パーセンタイル：99.19(Engineering, Environmental)Ligand anchored functional nanomaterials are increasingly gaining interest as efficient materials for various types of toxic pollutants. In this study, the organic ligand was densely anchored onto the mesoporous silica by the building-block approach as facial adsorbent, characterized and then examined for the cobalt (Co(II)) ion detection and removal from aqueous solutions. This study also examined the possibility of using facial adsorbent to remove low concentrations of Co(II) ions from water solution. The sorption isotherms fit the Langmuir sorption model well and the maximum Co(II) ion sorption capacity was 157.73 mg/g. The effective eluent of 0.20M HCl was used to elute the Co(II) from the facial adsorbent, and the adsorbent was simultaneously regenerated into the initial form after rinsing with water.

被引用回数：259 パーセンタイル：99.36(Engineering, Environmental)In this study, the organic ligand of 4-dodecyl-6-((4-(hexyloxy)phenyl)diazenyl) benzene-1,3-diol (DPDB) and mesoporous silica have been used to prepare the nano-composite adsorbent. The nano-composite adsorbent was fabricated by indirect immobilization of DPDB onto the mesoporous silica. The experimental data clarified that the Ce(III) was detected and adsorbed by the adsorbent at pH 2.50. The limit of detection for Ce(III) ions by the adsorbent was 0.12 microgram/L and the sorption capacity was 150.37 mg/g at optimum conditions. The proposed adsorbent allowed the sensitive, selective, easy to use, cost-effective, high efficiency, fast kinetics and stable capturing of Ce(III) ions even in the presence of diverse competing ions.

被引用回数：175 パーセンタイル：99.18(Chemistry, Analytical)In this study, we designed ligand immobilized mesoporous adsorbent for ultra-trace Pb(II) monitoring and removal from wastewater. This adsorbent exhibited the large surface area-to-volume ratios and uniformly shaped pores in case cavities, and its active sites kept open functionality to taking up Pb(II). The data revealed that the adsorbent was able to detect the ultra-trace Pb(II) ions with high sensitivity and selectivity by charge transfer transduction mechanism. Then the adsorbent proved to have an efficient ability for continuous Pb(II) monitoring and removal even on-site and in situ chemical analyses.

被引用回数：143 パーセンタイル：98.7(Chemistry, Analytical)The novel nanocollector were developed for potential application in cobalt (Co(II)) detection and extraction from lithium ion batteries (LIBs). The nanocollectors are high surface area and large pore volume which possess the ultra-trace Co(II) detection and removal from LIBs. The nanocollectors were retaining functionality in spite of many chemical treatments during removal-extraction-regeneration cycles. Therefore, large scale pilot studies are recommended in order to confirm the promising results obtained at laboratory scale.
