CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 343:140216. [PMID: 37748655 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.140216] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 09/16/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/27/2023]
Abstract
We previously reported that monoalkyl dithiocarbamate-modified cellulose (DMC) exhibited excellent adsorption performance for arsenite (AsIII), cadmium (CdII), lead (PbII), gold (AuIII), silver (AgI), platinum (PtIV), and palladium (PdII). However, its adsorption capability for AsIII decreased by 96.4% after two weeks of storage at 40 °C under an air atmosphere. This decrease in adsorption ability could occur for other metals that dithiocarbamates can extract. In this study, we investigated the adsorption performance of DMC for various metals before and after storage and proposed a possible mechanism for this decrease. We found significant decreases in the adsorption abilities of PbII (11.4%), AgI (39.5%), PtIV (65.5%), and PdII (69.6%), whereas AuIII and CdII adsorption was largely retained, with decreases of 1.1% and 4.0%, respectively. FTIR analysis of the stored DMC revealed the formation of S-S bonds and the retention of dithiocarbamate peaks, indicating the formation of dithiocarbamate dimers (thiuram disulfides). To further support thiuram disulfide formation, dialkyl thiuram disulfides were tested for the adsorption of the seven employed metals. The metal adsorption behavior of dialkyl thiuram disulfides was almost identical to that of the stored adsorbent, ensuring thiuram disulfide formation. In conclusion, the loss of adsorption capability can be mainly attributable to the formation of thiuram disulfide.

Cross-linked dithiocarbamate-modified cellulose with enhanced thermal stability and dispersibility as a sorbent for arsenite removal. CHEMOSPHERE 2022; 307:135671. [PMID: 35842048 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.135671] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2022] [Revised: 07/07/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Numerous reports have described dithiocarbamate (DTC)-modified cellulose sorbents that can selectively separate metal ions from water. We have previously synthesized a novel sorbent modified with DTC containing N-heterocycles in the backbone for the selective removal of hazardous metal ions. The sorbent was found to partially dissolve and aggregate in solution, reducing its sorption capacity. In this study, to prepare the sorbent for use as a soli-phase extraction material for the removal of arsenite (AsIII) ions, we attempted to decrease the solubility of the sorbent. The sorbent was cross-linked with epoxy or complexed with iron, and the quantities of the modifiers were varied between 3.0 and 10 mol%. As a result, the iron-complexed sorbents were still partially soluble, and cross-linkage with 6.0 mol% of epoxy made the sorbent almost insoluble and dispersed in solution. This sorbent also exhibited the highest AsIII sorption performance among the sorbents synthesized in this study. Although DTC-modified polymers are reported to lose their sorption capability after storage at 40 °C, the sorbent was found to be thermally stable. The optimum contact time and pH for AsIII removal were 20 min and 3.0, respectively. The maximum sorption capacity of the epoxy-cross-linked sorbent, calculated from the Langmuir isotherm equation, was 600 μmol g-1 (45 mg g-1) at 25 °C. Additionally, the sorbent was highly selective toward AsIII compared with previously reported sorbents and capable of removing approximately 97% of AsIII from environmental water. In conclusion, cross-linking enhances the stability of the sorbents in solutions, which facilitates the removal of AsIII from environmental water.

Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 169:130-142. [PMID: 33296691 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.12.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2020] [Revised: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Xanthates are widely used in mining industry as collectors for its high affinity towards metal sulfides and precious metal ores. The possibility of using alginate for xanthation has not been explored yet despite the feasibility by the presence of hydroxyl groups alongside the polymeric chains. Therefore, this work aims to evaluate the alginate as a matrix for xanthation and its application on heavy metal ions removal. In order to obtain green materials, important pararmeter were explored such as the effect of reaction time (4-12 h), type of base (NaOH/KOH) and amount of carbon disulfide (2-10%v/v). Xanthated alginates were analyzed by NMR techniques and evidence of β-elimination was detected at 5.45 ppm. Furthermore, the presence of S element was confirmed by EDS mapping technique, while XRD showed a semi-crystalline structure. On the other hand, the chemical shifts of δ(C=S) and ν(C=S) bands were found around 863-805 cm-1 and 662-602 cm-1 respectively. Also, a shoulder at 182 ppm is appreciated by NMR in solid state attributed to CS group. According to FESEM analyses, morphology of xanthated alginates is affected by interaction with heavy metal ions. Finally, suitable materials for the removal of heavy metal ions were established at optimum pH values.
