Implication

Experimental study reveals rapid and selective lead removal in contaminated water by alkalized titanium carbide, suggesting high-efficiency water purification potential.

Key Points

  • To investigate the Pb(II) adsorption performance and surface binding mechanisms of two-dimensional layered titanium carbide modified by alkalization.
  • Synthesized two-dimensional alk-MXene (Ti3C2(OH/ONa)x F2-x) through chemical exfoliation followed by alkalization intercalation.
  • Conducted kinetic adsorption tests and selectivity assays in the presence of competing Ca(II) and Mg(II) ions, supported by computational modeling of surface interactions.
  • Pb(II) sorption equilibrium was attained within 120 seconds, displaying high selectivity over competing Ca(II) and Mg(II) cations.
  • The material achieved a treatment capacity of 4,500 kg water per alk-MXene, reducing effluent lead concentrations below the World Health Organization drinking water limit of 10 μg/L via ion exchange at activated hydroxyl sites.
