| Abstract | With the widespread use of graphene oxide (GO), it is inevitable that part of GO is released into the environment and co-exist with heavy metal ions as contaminants and is likely to be co-adsorbed on minerals and oxides. This study, for the first time, demonstrates the individual and mutual removal mechanism of GO and Cu(II) on titanium dioxide (TiO2) by batch experiments, spectroscopic analysis and density functional theory (DFT) computations. Electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding are the dominant modes of GO sorption onto TiO2, and the interaction of Cu(II) with TiO2 is mainly dominated by inner-sphere surface complexation. The presence of Cu(II) enhances GO coagulation on TiO2 and vice versa. The experimental results are further verified by DFT sorption energy (Es) calculations in the order (TiO2–GO)–Cu > TiO2–GO for GO interaction and (TiO2–GO)–Cu > TiO2–Cu for Cu(II) interaction. The mutual interaction is favorable for the simultaneous removal of GO and heavy metal ions by surface complexation between Cu(II) and oxygen-containing functional groups. These findings might facilitate better understanding of the co-removal behavior of carbon nanomaterials and heavy metal ions on oxides, which is crucial to decreasing the environmental toxicity of pollutants in the natural environment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
