Abstract

Nano-spherical amine-rich polyethylenimine (PEI) grafted on mesoporous silica (MCM-41) (PEI/MCM-41) was developed for Cd(II) and Ni(II) removal fromwater. Characterization of PEI/MCM-41 using various techniques confirms its successful fabrication. Adsorption results reveal that pH and adsorbent dosage must be controlled for maximum removal. The adsorption rate was pseudo-second-order, and fitted well with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms at equilibrium. The adsorption was thermodynamically spontaneous, endothermic and favourable. Adsorption capacities of $156.0mg\;g^{-1}$ Cd(II) and $139.7mg\;g^{-1}$ Ni(II) were on par with other high performing reported adsorbents. The PEI/MCM-41 was successfully reused demonstrating its potential for heavy metal decontamination application.
