Abstract
Composites of hydroxyapatite, recognized by its peculiar crystal architecture and distinctive attributes showcased the potential in adsorbing heavy metal ions and radioactive elements as well as selected organic substances. In this paper, the intrinsic mechanism of adsorption by composites hydroxyapatite was proved for the first time. Subsequently, selectivity and competitiveness of composites of hydroxyapatite for a variety of environments containing various interferences from cations, anions, and organic molecules are elucidated. Next, composites of hydroxyapatite were further categorized according to their morphological dimensions. Adsorption properties and intrinsic mechanisms were investigated based on different morphologies. It was shown that although composites of hydroxyapatite were characterized by excellent adsorption capacity and cost-effectiveness, their application is often challenging due to inherent fragility and agglomeration, technical problems required for their handling as well as difficulty in recycling. Finally, to address these issues, the paper discusses the tendency of hydroxyapatite composites to adsorb heavy metal ions and radioactive elements as well as the limitations of their applications. Summarizing the limitations and future directions of modification of HAP in the field of heavy metal ions and different substances contamination abatement, the paper provides insightful perspectives for its gradual improvement and rational application.
