Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is an important issue to develop a new method to recover heavy metals efficiently to resolve environmental problems such as waste water treatment. The recovery of heavy metals has been so far carried out utilizing a principle of physicochemical adsorption also called hydrophobic interaction, which is a weak interaction, making it difficult to recover the heavy metals in efficient and selective ways. In this study, polymer adsorbent involving heterocycles have been developed focusing on a strong interaction between heavy metals and hetero atoms. As a result, it has been found that the adsorbent has higher adsorptivity than usual adsorbents without heterocycles and is useful for treatment of low concentration waste water.
