B4C4 nanocluster ring for toxic heavy metal ion adsorption from wastewater: A DFT study
The stable and relaxed geometry of the novel B4C4 nanocluster ring has been obtained via density functional theory calculation. The adsorption of several toxic heavy metal ions (HMIs) As(iii), Zn(ii), Cd(ii), and Pb(ii) on B4C4 is studied. Up to two HMIs were adsorbed successfully in each nanocluster. The variation in geometrical, electronic, and optical properties due to metal ion adsorption has been observed to understand the HMI-B4C4 interactions. The HMI adsorption results in significant structural deformation of the nanocluster. As(iii) ion has showed the maximum interaction whereas Pb(ii) revealed the minimum attraction to the nanocluster with the adsorption energies of −10.62 and −0.72 eV. The nanocluster possessed an energy gap of 2.21 eV which changed drastically due to the adsorption of HMIs. The interaction of As(iii), Zn(ii), and Cd(ii) ions with B4C4 is partially covalent whereas the weak van der Waals interaction exists between the nanocluster and Pb(ii) ions. Overall observed characteristics make the B4C4 nanocluster a potential candidate for HMI removal application from wastewater.
