Removal of 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid from water by MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework: kinetics, isotherms and statistical models.

ABSTRACT: Effective removal of 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), an emerging agrochemical contaminant in water with carcinogenic and mutagenic health effects has been reported using hydrothermally synthesized MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework (MOF). The properties of the MOF were ascertained using powdered X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and surface area and porosimetry (SAP). The BET surface area and pore volume of the MOF were 1439 m² g^-1 and 0.77 cm³ g^-1, respectively. Artificial neural network (ANN) model was significantly employed for the accurate prediction of the experimental adsorption capacity (q_e ) values with minimal error. A rapid removal of the pollutant (99%) was recorded within short time (approx. 25 min), and the reusability of the MOF (20 mg) was achieved up to six cycles with over 90% removal efficiency. The kinetics, isotherm and thermodynamics of the process were described by the pseudo-second-order, Freundlich and endothermic adsorption, respectively. The adsorption process is spontaneous based on the negative Gibbs free energy values. The significant correlation between the experimental findings and simulation results suggests the great potential of MIL-101(Cr) for the remediation of MCPA from water matrices.

Project description:In this study, hybrids of nanoporous MIL-101(Cr) and MIL-53(Al) were synthesized using a hydrothermal method for various time periods, ranging from 8 to 40 h. The prepared materials were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and elemental analysis, and their specific surface areas were measured by N2 sorption at 77 K using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method. To investigate the practical application of these materials, the pure carbon dioxide and methane adsorption capacities of the samples were determined using the volumetric method. The Langmuir model was used to fit the CO2 and CH4 isotherms. Extended Langmuir (EL) equations and the ideal adsorbed solution theory (IAST) models were used to obtain the CO2/CH4 selectivity. The sample with the highest BET specific surface area was selected as a candidate for further investigations. The thermal stability of the selected sample was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the sample morphology. XRD results showed that the sample synthesized over the shortest time corresponded to MIL-101(Cr), while the sample synthesized over the longest time was in agreement with MIL-53(Al). Samples synthesized for time periods between these two limits were assumed to be composites of both MIL-53(Al) and MIL-101(Cr). TGA results indicated that the hybrid materials were thermally stable at temperatures about 100 °C higher than for pure MIL-101(Cr). The BET specific surface area (1746 m2 g-1) and CO2 adsorption capacity (16 mmol g-1) of the selected hybrid sample were about 50% and 35% higher, respectively, compared with those of pure MIL-53(Al), but 30% and 20% lower, respectively, compared with those of pure MIL-101(Cr). Binary adsorption modeling showed the high selectivity of the MIL-101(Cr) and MIL-53(Al) hybrid material for CO2 with a minimum separation factor of about 60 at 298 K. This value was much higher than those reported previously and those observed in this work for the original MIL-101(Cr) or MIL-53(Al). These results demonstrated that the hybrid of MIL-101(Cr) and MIL-53(Al) was a promising material for selective CO2 capture from natural and biogas.
