Interfacial electron redistribution allows advanced phosphate adsorption in Zn/La-loaded magnetic mesoporous nanospheres
A core-shell structured Zn/La magnetic mesoporous silica (denoted as Zn/La-MMS) composite we successfully constructed via etching and co-deposition techniques, achieving exceptionally efficient adsorption of phosphate. At an optimized Zn/La ratio of 0.5 (i.e., Zn/La-0.5 MMS), the composite exhibited an ordered mesoporous structure and superior adsorption performance with a maximum phosphate adsorption capacity of 140.9 mg P/g (15-fold higher than the pristine MMS). High adsorption performance was achieved across a broad pH range of 3 to 11 and in the presence of substantial amounts of co-existing ions/substances (Cl−, NO3−, SO42−, HCO3−, and humic acid at concentrations 20-50 times that of the PO43−-P concentration). After five adsorption-regeneration cycles, 79% adsorption capacity remained with material recovery rates >95% via magnetic separation. A bimetallic synergistic mechanism was revealed via X-ray absorption fine-structure characterizations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The electronegativity difference between La and Zn induces interfacial electron redistribution, driving electron back-donation from the La/Zn-O hybridized orbitals to the O 2p antibonding orbitals of HPO₄²⁻, forming stable covalent coordination bonds (La-O-P/Zn-O-P), which allowed the exceptionally high and efficient adsorption of phosphate. This phenomenon is expected to have important implications for the development of novel adsorption materials for advanced removal of phosphate.
期刊介绍:
Water Research, along with its open access companion journal Water Research X, serves as a platform for publishing original research papers covering various aspects of the science and technology related to the anthropogenic water cycle, water quality, and its management worldwide. The audience targeted by the journal comprises biologists, chemical engineers, chemists, civil engineers, environmental engineers, limnologists, and microbiologists. The scope of the journal include:
•Treatment processes for water and wastewaters (municipal, agricultural, industrial, and on-site treatment), including resource recovery and residuals management;
•Urban hydrology including sewer systems, stormwater management, and green infrastructure;
•Drinking water treatment and distribution;
•Potable and non-potable water reuse;
•Sanitation, public health, and risk assessment;
•Anaerobic digestion, solid and hazardous waste management, including source characterization and the effects and control of leachates and gaseous emissions;
•Contaminants (chemical, microbial, anthropogenic particles such as nanoparticles or microplastics) and related water quality sensing, monitoring, fate, and assessment;
•Anthropogenic impacts on inland, tidal, coastal and urban waters, focusing on surface and ground waters, and point and non-point sources of pollution;
•Environmental restoration, linked to surface water, groundwater and groundwater remediation;
•Analysis of the interfaces between sediments and water, and between water and atmosphere, focusing specifically on anthropogenic impacts;
•Mathematical modelling, systems analysis, machine learning, and beneficial use of big data related to the anthropogenic water cycle;
•Socio-economic, policy, and regulations studies.
