- PT-GO was synthesized by graphene oxide functionalized persimmon tannins.
- PT-GO exhibited good performance towards Au3Â +, Pd2Â + and Ag+ ions.
- The process was investigated systematically by isotherms and kinetic analysis.
In this study, a novel bio-adsorbent (PT-GO) was prepared by functionalization persimmon tannin (PT) with graphene oxide (GO) and the effective adsorption behaviors of Au3Â +, Pd2Â + and Ag+ ions from aqueous solution was investigated. The PT-GO was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), scanning electronic microscope (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and Zeta potential. Many influence factors such as pH value, bio-adsorbent dosage, initial concentration of metal ions and contact time were optimized. The maximum adsorption capacity for Au3Â +, Pd2Â + and Ag+ was 1325.09Â mg/g, 797.66Â mg/g and 421.01Â mg/g, respectively. The equilibrium isotherm for the adsorption of Au3Â + and Ag+ on PT-GO were found to obey the Langmuir model, while the Freundlich model fitted better for Pd2Â +. The adsorption process of Au3Â +, Pd2Â + presented relatively fast adsorption kinetics with pseudo-second-order equation as the best fitting model, while the pseudo-first-order kinetic model was suitable for describing the adsorption of Ag+. Combination of ion exchange, electrostatic interaction and physical adsorption was the mechanism for adsorption of Au3Â +, Pd2Â + and Ag+ onto PT-GO bio-adsorbent. Therefore, the PT-GO bio-adsorbent would be an ideal adsorbent for removal of precious metal ions and broaden the potential applications of persimmon tannin in environmental research.
