Magnetic carboxyl functional nanoporous polymer: synthesis, characterization and its application for methylene blue adsorption.

ABSTRACT: Magnetic carboxyl functional nanoporous polymer (MCFNP) was chemically fabricated by incorporation of magnetic Fe₃O₄ precursor into the carboxyl functional nanoporous polymer (CFNP). The as-synthesized MCFNP was characterized and used as an adsorbent for rapid adsorption removal of methylene blue (MB) from wastewater. Several experimental parameters affecting the adsorption efficiency were investigated including initial pH, adsorbent dosage, initial MB concentration, contact time and temperature. The adsorption behavior of MCFNP displayed that adsorption kinetics and isotherms could be well fitted to the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models, respectively. The experimental results showed that MCFNP was an effective adsorbent with a maximum adsorption capacity of 57.74 mg g^-1 for MB at 298 K. The negative free energy (ΔG) and positive enthalpy change (ΔH) confirmed that the adsorption reaction was a spontaneous and endothermic process. In addition, ethanol was used as an effective extractant for the regeneration of MCFNP, and the adsorption efficiency could remain 80% after the ninth regeneration cycle.

Project description:This work reports the synthesis of nanosilica-coated magnetic carbonaceous adsorbents (MCA@SiO2) using low-temperature hydrothermal carbonization technique (HCT) and the feasibility to utilize it for methylene blue (MB) adsorption. Initially, a carbon precursor (CP) was synthesized from corn starch under saline conditions at 453 K via HCT followed by the magnetization of CP again via HCT at 453 K. Subsequently, MCA was coated with silica nanoparticles. MCA and MCA@SiO2 were characterized using X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The BET surface area of MCA and MCA@SiO2 were found to be 118 and 276 m2 g-1, respectively. Adsorption of MB onto MCA@SiO2 was performed using batch adsorption studies and in the optimum condition, MCA@SiO2 showed 99% adsorption efficiency with 0.5 g L-1 of MCA@SiO2 at pH 7. Adsorption isotherm studies predicted that MB adsorption onto MCA@SiO2 was homogeneous monolayer adsorption, which was best described using a Langmuir model with the maximum adsorption capacity of 516.9 mg g-1 at 25 °C. During adsorption kinetics, a rapid dye removal was observed which followed pseudo-first- as well as pseudo-second-order models, which suggested that MB dye molecules were adsorbed onto MCA@SiO2 via both ion exchange as well as the chemisorption process. The endothermic and spontaneous nature of the adsorption of MB onto MCA@SiO2 was established by thermodynamics studies. Mechanism of dye diffusion was collectively governed by intraparticle diffusion and film diffusion processes. Furthermore, MB was also selectively adsorbed from its mixture with an anionic dye, that is, methyl orange. Column adsorption studies showed that approximately 500 mL of MB having 50 mg L-1 concentration can be treated with 0.5 g L-1 of MCA@SiO2. Furthermore, MCA@SiO2 was repeatedly used for 20 cycles of adsorption-desorption of MB. Therefore, MCA@SiO2 can be effectively utilized in cationic dye-contaminated wastewater remediation applications.

Project description:With increasing awareness of reduction of energy and CO2 footprint, more waste is considered recyclable for generating value-added products. Here we reported the negatively-valued iron mud, a waste from groundwater treatment plant, was successfully converted into magnetic adsorbent. Comparing with the conventional calcination method under the high temperature and pressure, the synthesis of the magnetic particles (MPs) by Fe2+/Fe3+ coprecipitation was conducted at environment-friendly condition using ascorbic acid (H2A) as reduction reagent and nitric acid (or acid wastewater) as leaching solution. The MPs with major component of Fe3O4 were synthesized at the molar ratio (called ratio subsequently) of H2A to Fe3+ of iron mud ≥ 0.1; while amorphous ferrihydrite phase was formed at the ratio ≤ 0.05, which were confirmed by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). With the ratio increased, the crystalline size and the crystallization degree of MPs increased, and thus the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface and the cation-exchange capacity (CEC) decreased. MPs-3 prepared with H2A to Fe3+ ratio of 0.1 demonstrated the highest methylene blue (MB) adsorption of 87.3 mg/g and good magnetic response. The adsorption of MB onto MPs agreed well with the non-linear Langmuir isotherm model and the pseudo-second-order model. Pilot-scale experiment showed that 99% of MB was removed by adding 10 g/L of MPs-3. After five adsorption-desorption cycles, MPs-3 still showed 62% removal efficiency for MB adsorption. When nitric acid was replaced by acid wastewater from a propylene plant, the synthesized MPs-3w showed 3.7 emu/g of saturation magnetization (Ms) and 56.7 mg/g of MB adsorption capacity, 2.8 times of the widely used commercial adsorbent of granular active carbon (GAC). The major mechanism of MPs adsorption for MB was electrostatic attraction and cation exchange. This study synthesized a magnetic adsorbent from the negatively-valued iron mud waste by using an environment-friendly coprecipitation method, which had a potential for treatment of dye wastewater.
