Abstract:In this study, an environmentally friendly magnetic composite MSAL was prepared using sodium alginate, L-cysteine, CaCl2 and Fe3O4 as raw materials. The effects of pH, coexisting ions and contact time on Cu(Ⅱ) adsorption performance of MSAL were explored using simulated and actual copper-containing electroplating wastewater. SEM-EDS, PPMS and XPS were used to characterize MSAL and its possible adsorption mechanism was investigated. The single factor optimization experiments indicated that the suitable preparation conditions were following: sodium alginate concentration of 30.0 g·L?1, L-cysteine concentration of 6.0 g·L?1, CaCl2 concentration of 2.5 g·L?1, and Fe3O4 concentration of 2.0 g·L?1. Cu(Ⅱ) adsorption amount by MSAL increased significantly with the increase of pH and high removal rate was maintained at pHs of 3.0~5.0. When the pH was 5, Cu(Ⅱ) removal rate in electroplating wastewater reached 94.02%. Adsorption followed well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isothermal model, indicating that the adsorption was dominated by monolayer adsorption and was controlled by chemical processes, and the maximum adsorption capacity reached 175.45 mg·g?1. Characterization results revealed that MSAL exhibited excellent magnetic responsiveness and was easily removed from the solution. The adsorption process was mainly affected by ion exchange and coordination between amino, carboxyl and copper ions. This study will lay a solid foundation for control heavy metal pollution in electroplating wastewater by magnetic composite materials. Key words:sodium alginate/ L-cysteine/ electroplating wastewater/ adsorption mechanism/ magnetic response.
