This study focuses on preparing biomass carbon (<span>BC</span>) from banana pseudostems for the remediation of heavy metals in water. A systematic investigation was conducted to evaluate the effects of initial solution concentration, pH, reaction time, reaction temperature, and coexisting cations on the adsorption of Mn(II), Cd(II), Pb(II), andCu (II) by <span>BC</span>. The results showed that the adsorption capacity of <span>BC</span> for all four heavy metals reached its peak at pH 6. The adsorption process was primarily governed by monolayer chemisorption. Furthermore, the process is spontaneous, endothermic, and accompanied by an increase in entropy. In a multimetal system, <span>BC</span> demonstrated the strongest selectivity for Pb(II). Even in the presence of interfering ions, <span>BC</span> maintained a high adsorption capacity for heavy metals. Notably, after 5 cycles of use, <span>BC</span> retained a significant removal rate of 40%–60% for heavy metals, underscoring its recyclability and environmental friendliness. Characterization studies indicated that the adsorption of heavy metals by <span>BC</span> involves multiple mechanisms, including ion exchange, mineral precipitation, functional group complexation, and cation-π interactions. The dissolved organic matter (DOM) derived from biochar plays a pivotal role in the adsorption process. Furthermore, the preparation of <span>BC</span> is both straightforward and cost-effective, combining economic viability with practical applicability.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":8344,"journal":{"name":"Applied Organometallic Chemistry","volume":"39 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143481325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the growing need, existing detection strategies often face challenges such as being time-consuming, inaccurate, cumbersome, and expensive. Surprisingly, fluorometric sensing has been explored minimally for Sm detection. In this study, we introduce a novel approach for detecting Sm (III) ions using a fluorescent metal–organic framework (MOF), Cu-PTC, synthesized via a one-pot, green, room temperature method. This represents the first reported use of a fluorescent MOF for Sm (III) detection. The Cu-PTC MOF was synthesized using the potassium salt of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic acid and Cu (II) ions from Cu (OAc)₂. Structural analysis revealed the formation of a 3D network with well-defined pores. Photophysical characterization confirmed the absorption and emission properties of Cu-PTC.
