Dithiocarbamate-grafted polyurethane (PU) composites were synthesized by anchoring dithiocarbamate (DTC) as a chelating agent to the polyethyleneimine-polydopamine (PE-DA)-functionalized graphene-based PU matrix (PE-DA@GB@PU), as a new adsorbent material for the recovery of Cu 2+ , Pb 2+ , and Cd 2+ from industrial effluents. After leaching with acidic media to recover Cu 2+ , Pb 2+ , and Cd 2+ , dithiocarbamate-grafted PE-DA@GB@PU (DTC-g-PE-DA@GB@PU) was decomposed and PE-DA@GP was regenerated. The latter was used to recover Pd 2+ , Pt 4+ , and Au 3+ from the copper leaching residue and anode slime. The present DTC-g-PE-DA@GB@PU and PE-DA@GB@PU composites show high adsorption performance, effective separation, and quick adsorption of the target ions. The morphologies of the composites were studied by scanning electron microscopy and their structures were investigated by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The effects of pH values, contact time, and initial metal ion concentration conditions were also studied. An adsorption mechanism was proposed and discussed in terms of the FT-IR results.
