Abstract:
In this research, new magnetic nanocomposites that consist of NH2-MIL53 (Al) and Fe3O4 nanoparticles functionalized with cysteine were synthesized and characterized. The application of these nanocomposites was investigated to remove lead ions from the wastewater model. The concentration of metal ions was measured by the utilization of flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS). Also, XRD, SEM, EDX, and FTIR instruments were used to identification and characterization of the synthesized nanocomposites. The effect of operating parameters such as; pH, contact time and adsorbent dosage were investigated on lead removal. The synthesized nanocomposite showed great potential for lead removal. The maximum adsorption capacity of the nanocomposite was about 361.53 mg/g. Adsorption kinetic parameters well fitted with the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The reusability test of the synthesized magnetic absorbent showed good adsorption efficiency for at least three consecutive cycles.

Metal-Ligand Bonds
In these complexes, transition metals form coordinate covalent bonds, a kind of Lewis acid-base interaction in which both of the electrons in the bond are contributed by a donor (Lewis base) to an electron acceptor (Lewis acid). The Lewis acid in...
