The presence of high concentrations of metal ions in effluents resulting from industrial metal coatings is a well-known fact. Most of the time, such metal ions, once they reach the environment, significantly contribute to its degradation. Therefore, it is essential that the concentration of metal ions is reduced (as much as possible) before such effluents are discharged into the environment to minimize the negative impact on the quality of the ecosystems. Among all methods that can be used to reduce the concentration of metal ions, sorption is one of the most viable options due to its high efficiency and low cost. Moreover, due to the fact that many industrial wastes have sorbent properties, this method is in accordance with the principles of circular economy. Based on these considerations, in this study, mustard waste biomass (resulting from oil extraction) was functionalized with an industrial polymeric thiocarbamate (METALSORB) and used as a sorbent to remove Cu(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) ions from aqueous media. The best conditions for the functionalization of mustard waste biomass were found to be: mixing ratio biomass: METASORB = 1 g: 1.0 mL and a temperature of 30 °C. The experimental sorption capacities of functionalized sorbent (MET-MWB) were 0.42 mmol/g for Cu(II), 0.29 mmol/g for Zn(II) and 0.47 mmol/g for Co(II), which were obtained under the following conditions: pH of 5.0, 5.0 g sorbent/L and a temperature of 21 °C. The modeling of isotherms and kinetic curves as well as the analysis of the results obtained from desorption processes demonstrate the usefulness of this sorbent in the treatment of effluents contaminated with metal ions. In addition, tests on real wastewater samples highlight the potential of MET-MWB for large-scale applications.
