Mercury and lead sorption properties of poly(ethyleneimine) coated onto silica gel

Abstract: In this article, we studied the sorption properties of poly(ethyleneimine) coated on silica gel for metal ions with impact on the environment, such as Zn(II), Cd(II), Hg(II), and Pb(II). The experiments were carried out by batch procedure and the effects of pH, concentration, and temperature were evaluated. In addition, the selectivity was studied for binary, ternary, and quaternary metal ion mixtures. Mercury and lead showed promising results, achieving higher than 65% of sorption after only 1 h of contact. U… Show more

“…Therefore, lead-containing wastewater must be effectively treated before being discharged. 5 At present, the main methods for the treatment of lead-containing wastewater include chemical precipitation method, 6,7 ion exchange method, 8 electrochemical method, 9 and adsorption method. 10–12 However, the adsorption method is widely applied for water treatment because of its simple operation and low cost.…”

“…Metal uptake or sorption capacity was calculated based on the difference of metal ion concentration before and after adsorption according to ( 1 ). The percentage of mercury sorption, distribution coefficient, selectivity coefficients, and half-life sorption [ 39 ] were calculated using ( 1 )–( 5 ), respectively, as follows: …”

“…Recently, polyamine silica materials, which show excellent adsorption properties and mechanical stability due to a large number of amino groups loading on the surface of silica gel, are widely used in the field of separation, enrichment of heavy metal ions and environmental protection [1][2][3][4][5] . The materials, such as polyethyleneimine silica composites and poly(allylamine) silica composites which showed excellent adsorption properties for Cu(II), Zn(II), Ni(II), Pb(II) and so on [6,7] , were synthesized by surface grafting method.…”
