Abstract:<p>This work describes the
preparation of novel fluorescent bentonite clay (BP), modified with carbon
quantum dots nanomaterials (CDs), and its usage as lead removal platform, the
CDs was prepared using graphitic waste serving as carbon source material via
hydrothermal method, and the as obtained CDs were found to be fluorescent, in
spherical shape, positively charged and smaller than 5 nm. Encouraged by their
structure and photoluminescence feature, they were used hereafter as
intercalants or surface mo… Show more
