Abstract
In this paper, new epichlorohydrin crosslinked 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde Schiff base chitosan@SrFe12O19 magnetic nanocomposite (EP-DBSB-CS@SrFe12O19) was prepared from the reaction of epichlorohydrin, 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and chitosan (1:1:1 weight ratio) at the presence of SrFe12O19 nanoparticles. The title compound EP-DBSB-CS@SrFe12O19 was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, DSC, VSM, FE-SEM, EDS and map analysis and the results of all of them confirm that the successfully preparation of hard magnetic nanocomposite of EP-DBSB-CS@SrFe12O19 with uniform distribution of all elements. In addition, the removal of Pb(II) and Cd(II) ions from aqueous solution using EP-DBSB-CS@SrFe12O19 nanocomposite has been characterized and the effect of pH solution, shaking time and also sorbent dose on removal percentage were investigated. Adsorption results predicts that the maximum removal percentage, 98.5% for Pb(II) and 86% for Cd(II), was found to be at pH solution of 5 at the presence of 0.02 g sorbent and 90 min contact time. According to these results, we proposed adsorption process using magnetic EP-DBSB-CS@SrFe12O19 nanocomposite to removal of other heavy metal such as Hg(II), Cu(II), Co(II), Cr(VI) and Ni(II).
