This study reports the adsorption of heavy metal ions from Lanthanides aqueous solution using graphene oxide-citrate (GO-C) composite. The results show that GO-C has high adsorption capacity and quick equilibrium adsorption time for Fe, Ni, and Mn ions, and it can be reused multiple times to enhance removal efficiency.
Lanthanides are widely used in several advanced technologies, and the presence of heavy metal ions as traces reduce their efficiencies. Hence, adsorption of some heavy metals from Lanthanides aqueous solution using previously prepared graphene oxide-citrate (GO-C) composite was reported. In this regard, the GO-C was applied to remove various heavy metal ions (Fe, Ni, Mn) through the batch technique. The GO-C after the adsorption process was characterized by various advanced techniques. The results obtained from the experimental investigations revealed that the GO-C showed a rapid equilibrium adsorption time (1.0 min) for all the studied heavy metal ions. Moreover, the adsorption isotherm data for Fe3+, Mn2+, and Ni2+ was fit by the Langmuir isotherm model with excellent adsorption capacity for Fe3+ (535.0 mg/g), Mn2+ (223.22 mg/g), and Ni2+ (174.65 mg/g). Furthermore, the GO-C can be reused over five times to enhance the removal efficiency. Interestingly, the GO-C adsorbent achieved removal performance reached 95.0% for the Fe3+ and >= 35.0% for Ni, Mn, Co, and Cu compared to < 1% for lanthanides metal ions.
