I am preparing a heterogeneous adsorbent for heavy metal removal. the main active group was the carboxylic group. during preparation, the catalyst was treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide for a long time (24 Hr). sodium carboxylate formation was confirmed. my question is how to obtain the carboxylic group free again. ideas, detailed procedures, and similar paper are highly appreciated.
