Özet
In this work, using density functional theory, we investigate the adsorption process of toxic metal ions (Hg2+, Cd2+, and Pb2+) on graphene nanoflakes (GNF) comprised of various sized oxygen-passivated nanopores to gain molecular insights into the ability of such surfaces in effectively removing the metal ions from contaminated environments. Thermodynamically, the adsorption of these ions on the oxygen-passivated nanopores is shown to be more energetically favorable than that on the pristine surface. The dispersion corrected adsorption energy calculations indicate Hg2+ ion to have the highest and Pb2+ ion the lowest affinities for interaction with such surfaces (Hg2+ > Cd2+ > Pb2+). The highest adsorption of Hg2+ and Cd2+ ions on the surfaces is seen in the 12-crown-3…Hg2+ (− 382.9 kcal/mol) and 12-crown-3…Cd2+ (− 314.7 kcal/mol) complexes, while Pb2+ ion shows the highest adsorption …
