Rapid global industrialization has exacerbated the contamination of heavy metals in aquatic ecosystems. In this study, green, ultrafine cellulose-based porous nanofibrous membranes were developed for efficient removal of heavy metals by incorporating chitosan and using electrospinning techniques. The conventional electrospinning method resulted in a more uniform distribution of chemically active sites, leading to improved adsorption performance and reduced surface shrinkage during adsorption. The 30% CS conventional nanofibrous membranes exhibited the highest adsorption capacity for copper ions at a solution pH of 5.
Rapid global industrialization has worsened the heavy metal contamination of aquatic ecosystems globally. In this study, green, ultrafine cellulose-based porous nanofibrous membranes for efficient heavy metal removal were obtained by incorporating chitosan (CS) and using conventional and core-shell electrospinning ways. The relationship between the parameters of the electrospinning solution, the micro-morphology and porosity, the chemically active sites, the thermal stability, and the adsorption performance of the biocomposite nanofibrous membranes were analyzed. The adsorption effects of the copper ions, including the initial concentration, solution pH, and interaction time, were investigated. The results show that the average diameters of the conventional and core-shell ultrafine nanofibers with 50% and 30% CS loading are 56.22 nm and 37.28 nm, respectively. The core-shell cellulose acetate (CA)/CS biocomposite nanofibrous membranes showed the weaker thermal stability with a 48.2 degrees C lower maximum thermal decomposition temperature and induced the surface aggregation of more copper ions compared to the conventional one. A more uniform distribution of the chemical adsorption sites is obtained by conventional single-nozzle electrospinning than by core-shell electrospinning, which effectively promotes the adsorption performance of copper ions and decreases the surface shrinkage of the nanofibrous membranes during adsorption. The 30% CS conventional nanofibrous membranes at an aqueous solution pH of 5 showed the optimum adsorption capacity of copper ions (86.4 mg/g). The smart combination of renewable biomass with effective chemical adsorption sites, electrospinning technology that produces an interwoven porous structure, and an adsorption method with low cost and facile operation shows a promising prospect for water treatment.
