Polymeric Substitution of Triazole Moieties in Cellulosic Schiff Base for Heavy Metal Complexation Studies

The adsorption of metal ions from wastewater using Schiff base cellulose bearing pendulant heterocyclic chelating groups (MC-Tz) as a sorbent is the subject this paper. Solid state 13C-NMR, FT-IR, SEM, and XRD spectroscopy, well TGA were utilized to examine adsorbent. batch sorption process used pH, adsorbent dose, initial adsorbate concentration, temperature, contact time calculate ion levels. optimum pH-6.0, with complexation reaction exchange phase mechanisms at work. To investigate equilibrium concentration temperature-dependent rate constants, various models, such Langmuir, Freund, Temkin, Redlich–Peterson isotherm utilized. Maximum capacity modified towards Lead(II), Copper(II), Nickel(II), Cadmium(II) found be 453.2, 485.5, 473.2, 455.6 mg/g respectively. A Kinetic study shows that Langmuir more in agreement Pseudo-second order model. Adsorption–Desorption experiments over four cycles demonstrated feasibility sorbent's regeneration potential measured values enthalpy entropy explain essence process. objective research discover non-toxic, environmentally friendly biodegradable components conduct evaluations determine their use treatment.
