Novel adsorbent, diethylenetriamine-grafted Spirodela polyrhiza (DSP), was synthesized via modifying natural S. polyrhiza (SP) with diethylenetriamine by cross-linking with epichlorohydrin and applied to adsorb Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ from water. The effecting parameters on adsorption of Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ such as adsorbent dosage, pH, contact time, temperature, and initial concentration were studied through equilibrium experiments. The adsorption of Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ followed the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir isotherm adsorption model. The study discusses thermodynamic parameters, including changes in Gibbs free energy, entropy, and enthalpy, for the adsorption of Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ on DSP, and revealed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic under natural conditions. The maximum Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ adsorption capacities of DSP were 33.02 and 36.50 mg/g, respectively. The newly prepared materials were characterized through scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mapping analysis, and zeta potential analysis. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses indicated that functional groups (-OH and N-H) were involved in Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ adsorption. Notably, DSP can be easily regenerated and reused for multiple cycles. Therefore, DSP is a promising adsorbent for effective Ni²⁺ and Pb²⁺ removal.
