Thiol-functionalized multiwall carbon nanotube/magnetite nanocomposites (CNTs/Fe3O4) were synthesized, and were investigated by power X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analyses. BET analysis and physical properties measurement system. The results showed that the 3-mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane (MPTS) was successfully grafted on the surface of CNTs/Fe3O4 nanocomposites. The as-synthesized thiol-functionalized CNTs/Fe3O4 (MPTS-CNTs/Fe3O4) nanocomposites exhibited superparamagnetic property and higher specific surface area than that of CNTs/Fe3O4 nanocomposites at room temperature. The adsorption properties of Hg2+ and Pb2+ as a function of contact time, pH value and initial metal concentration were characterized by an inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES). The pseudo-first-order kinetic equation could better than that of pseudo-second-order kinetic equation to describe the adsorption kinetics of the before and after thiol-functionalized nanocopmposites. The removal efficiency of CNTs/Fe3O4 nanocomposites and MPTS-CNTs/Fe3O4 nanocomposites was highly pH dependent and the optimal pH value for adsorption was 6.5. The adsorption isotherms of Hg2+ and Pb2+ by MFTS-CNTs/Fe3O4 nanocomposites matched well with the Langmuir model with the maximum adsorption capacities of 65.52 and 65.40 mg/g, respectively.
