Abstract

AbstractEthyl carbamate (EC) is a kind of genotoxic and carcinogenic substance and potentially harmful to human health. In this study, simple and effective removal of EC from liquor samples by using the magnetic mesoporous adsorbent (Fe3O4@COFs) was investigated. Gas chromatography and triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (GC‐MS/MS) was used to monitor the whole of adsorption process. The results showed that the adsorbent has high efficiency and fast adsorption capacity. Under the optimized adsorption parameters, pseudo‐first‐order and pseudo‐second‐order kinetic models were employed to reveal the underlying sorption mechanism. Results indicated that the adsorption of EC on Fe3O4@COFs is more consistent with the pseudo‐second‐order model. Furthermore, an effective method for the adsorption and detection of EC was successfully developed, which exhibited good linearity with R2 ranging from 0.9954 to 0.9998, satisfactory recoveries in the range of 86.9%–116.2%, and the relative standard deviations (RSD) was lower than 5.8%. Fe3O4@COFs showed good stability and excellent performance in removing EC from liquor samples. It is expected that the proposed magnetic COFs hold great promise for liquor sample pretreatment and be extended for application in other fields.
