The sorption behaviour of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) toward some divalent metal ions such as Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Mn(II) and Cd(II) has been investigated systematically. The affinity order of the metal ions towards CNTs at pH in the range of 7.0–9.0 was: Cu(II) > Pb(II) > Zn(II) > Co(II) > Ni(II) > Cd(II) > Mn(II). The experimental parameters for preconcentration of copper, which exhibits the highest affinity towards carbon nanotubes, on a microcolumn packed with CNTs prior to its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry have been investigated. Copper can be quantitatively retained at pH 8.2 from sample volume up to 150 mL and then eluted completely with 0.1 mol L− 1 HNO3. The limit of detection limit for Cu(II) determination with FAAS detection was 2.1 μg L− 1, and the RSD was 3.5% at the 50 μg L− 1 level. Under the optimal conditions for copper enrichment also Zn(II), Pb(II) and Ni(II) could be quantitatively preconcentrated from water samples. The method was validated using a certified reference materials BCR-610 and SRM 1640.
