| Abstract: | [Display omitted] • Facile and economic preparation of graphene hydrothermal nanocomposite from sunflower. • Advanced characterization of graphene hydrothermal nanocomposite. • Fast removal (within 10 min) of toxic metal ions Cd(II) and Pb(II) from water. • Removal of toxic metal ions at normal water resources pH (6.0–8.0). • Methods are important for providing clean water and climatic issues by using sunflower waste. Keeping the need for good water quality and the demand of climatic issues, the sunflower waste was converted into graphene hydrothermal nanocomposite absorbents for the removal of toxic Cd(II) and Pb(II) metal ions from water. The graphene composite materials were studied by scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), XRD analysis, TG and DSC, Raman and IR spectroscopy. According to SEM and TEM analysis, the decarbonized materials had a disordered structure with amorphous carbon with a small pore content. During the carbonization process, the pores space was opened due to the removal of amorphous organic matter and the formation of defects; providing a significant number of meso- and micropores. The prepared graphene composite showed 133.33 and 222.22 mg/g Langmuir adsorption of Cd(II) and Pb(II) at pH 6.0, dose 0.33 g/30 mL, initial concentration 300 mg/L, time 30 min and at 45 °C temperature using hydrothermal nanocomposite HTC/graphene oxide absorbent. The obtained results followed the sorption of heavy metal ions in a mixed-diffusion mode with the contribution of a second-order reaction between the active center of the sorbent and the metal ions. The Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich model's parameters and thermodynamic results confirmed endothermic physical interactions among adsorbent and metal ions. This paper is highly useful for managing sunflower waste and purifying water; leading to the present demand for clean water and climatic issues. The production of the effective low-cost nanocomposite using green synthesis technologies (hydrothermal carbonization of raw materials) is highly useful for the removal of Cd(II) and Pb(II) toxic metal ions from water.
