Crosslinking carboxymethyl starch (CCMS) powder of degree of substitution (DS) 0.43–0.59 was prepared by the process of two steps of alkali addition synthesis. The technique of powder coupling with ultrafiltration was used to absorb Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, Pb2+, and Cd2+ from aqueous solutions. FTIR was used to demonstrate the successfully grafting of carboxymethyl groups, and the technique of microwave plasma torch atomic emission spectrometer was applied in rapid determination of the aforementioned heavy metals ions. The results revealed that the removal sequence of heavy metal ions followed the order of Pb2+>Cu2+>Cd2+>Zn2+>Ni2+. By assistant of diethylene triamine penlaacetic acid, the quaternary system of Pb2+/Ni 2+/Cd2+/Cu2+ mixture solution could have the ideal separation. Besides, the influence of pH, ζ potential, DS value, and membranes molecular weight cut-off on removal of 20 mg L−1 Pb2+ or Ni2+ was also investigated.
