Nano-hydroxyapatite polymeric hydrogels for dye removal.

ABSTRACT: Herein, two kinds of nano-hydroxyapatite were synthesized from Clam and Magellan shell by wet chemical precipitation method. Mainly, carboxymethyl cellulose/acrylamide/nano-hydroxyapatite composite hydrogels were developed via a free-radical polymerization process and investigated as a sorbent for Acid Blue 113 (AB) from aqueous AB solution. The swelled and kinetic behaviours of hydrogels were investigated using a gravimetric method. The swelling properties of the CMC-AM-hydrogels were influenced by the calcium electrolytes (Ca²⁺) content in nano-hydroxyapatites. The diffusion coefficient value increased with the increase of nano-hydroxyapatite content in the CMC-AM/nHA-CS (0.22353-0.27681 cm² s^-1) and CMC-AM/nHA-MS (0.22377-0.29737 cm² s^-1) hydrogels. The mechanism of water diffusion was found to be anomalous transport. The CMC-AM/nHA-MS hydrogels showed high AB absorption efficiency and adsorption capacities. These results explained that the nano-hydroxyapatites of Magellan shells based hydrogels are attractive nanocomposite hydrogels for the adsorption of dye in the water purification applications.

Project description:A novel porous polymer-inorganic hybrid biocomposite with various functional groups (hide substance/chitosan/hydroxyapatite) has been synthesized in simple, economic, and scalable process utilizing leather industry solid waste and seafood industry waste composed with hydroxyapatite. Physicochemical characterization of the material reveals formation of composites with homogenous distribution of the constituents in the material matrix. The composite is hard and porous (with 0.1632 cm3/g slit-shaped mesopores and micropores) having particle sizes 40-80 ?m and a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area of 55.54 m2/g. The material is polycrystalline in nature with a fair amount of amorphous substance and less hydrophilic in character than constituent polymers. The dye removal efficiency of the material has been tested with two model dyes, namely, methylene blue (MB) (cationic/basic dye) and sunset yellow (SY) (anionic/acid dye). Optimum adsorptions of 3.8 mg MB (pH 12, RT ? 27 °C) and 168 mg of SY (pH 3, RT ? 27 °C) have been found per gram of the composite material. Langmuir isotherm and pseudo second order rate models have been found to be the best-fit models to explain the equilibrium isotherm and kinetics of the adsorption process for both the dyes. However, higher and faster adsorption of SY in comparison with MB indicated higher binding efficiency of the material toward the acidic dye. Desorption of dyes from the dye-adsorbed material was studied using a suitable eluent of appropriate pH and recycling for five times showed without loss of efficiency. The prepared composite showed very high dye removal efficiency toward four different commercially used dyes (496 mg/g of Orange-NR, 477 mg/g of Red-VLN, 488 mg/g of Blue-113 dye, and 274 mg/g of Green-PbS dye) from their individual and cocktail solutions. It was also efficient to decolorize dye-bearing tannery exhaust bath. Hence, waste materials generated during industrial processes could be efficiently used for the decontamination of colored wastewater produced by various industries.
