Utilizing an alternative composite material for effective copper(II) ion capturing from wastewater

The novel ligand based functionalized composite materials (CpMA) was fabricated using a highly porous silica and deployed as an effective materials for the effective monitoring and adsorption of copper (Cu(II)) ions from contaminated water. The application of CpMA was significantly intensified the monitoring and adsorption of Cu(II) ion at optimum experimental protocol. The organic ligand onto the mesoporous silica was the key factor for an efficient monitoring and adsorption of Cu(II) ion with optimum color formation. The effects of diverse experimental parameters such as solution pH, contact time, initial concentration, selectivity and sensitivity were measured systematically. The solution pH was played the key role for monitoring and adsorption and the present CpMA was worked well in acidic pH region at…
