Project description:Modification of silica purified from the Merapi volcanic ash with magnetic material of Fe3O4 and attachment of cetyl triamine bromide (CTA-Br) on the magnetic cored has been performed to provide recoverable and positive surfaced of natural adsorbent. The magnetic cored was prepared via co-precipitation and CTA-Br attachment was conducted by a facile strategy. Then, the modified adsorbents were characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, and FTIR instruments and examined for removing anionic Cr(VI) from the water media. The characterization data confirmed that crystals of Fe3O4 coated by SiO2 that has been bound with CTA-Br have been successfully formed. Additionally, increasing CTA-Br loaded gives thicker lamination on Fe3O4@SiO2/CTA-Br, but the CTA-Br loaded with higher than 0.25 mmol, leads to the coating peeled out. It is also demonstrated that Fe3O4@SiO2/CTA-Br prepared with CTA-Br 0.25 mmol is ideal for Cr(VI) anionic removal, regarding to the highest adsorption and very good separation or recovery process. Moreover, the optimal dose of Fe3O4@SiO2/CTA-Br in the Cr(VI) removal was observed at 0.25 g/20 mL under condition of pH 3 for 60 min. The adsorption of Cr(VI) well fits the Langmuir isotherm model with an adsorption capacity of 3.38 mg g-1 and is in a good agreement with pseudo-second order giving kinetic constant at 0.005 g mg-1 min-1. Thus, it is clear that the natural adsorbent material with recoverable properties for more efficient and wider application of removal Cr(VI) contaminant was expected from this study.

Project description:This study details the preparation of Fe-Mn binary oxide/mulberry stem biochar composite adsorbent (FM-MBC) from mulberry stems via the multiple activation by potassium permanganate, ferrous chloride, triethylenetetramine, and epichlorohydrin. The characteristics of FM-MBC had been characterized by SEM-EDS, BET, FT-IR, XRD, and XPS, and static adsorption batch experiments such as pH, adsorption time, were carried out to study the mechanism of Cr(VI) adsorption on FM-MBC and the impact factors. The results indicated that in contrast with the mulberry stem biochar (MBC), the FM-MBC has more porous on surface with a BET surface area of 74.73 m2/g, and the surface loaded with α-Fe2O3 and amorphization of MnO2 particles. Besides, carboxylic acid, hydroxyl, and carbonyls functional groups were also formed on the FM-MBC surface. At the optimal pH 2.0, the maximum adsorption capacity for Cr(VI) was calculated from the Langmuir model of 28.31, 31.02, and 37.14 mg/g at 25, 35, and 45 °C, respectively. The aromatic groups, carboxyls, and the hydroxyl groups were the mainly functional groups in the adsorption of Cr(VI). The mechanism of the adsorption process of FM-MBC for Cr(VI) mainly involves electrostatic interaction, surface adsorption of Cr(VI) on FM-MBC, and ion exchange.

Project description:Graphene oxide/polyamidoamine dendrimers (GO/PAMAMs) composites were used to remove Cr(VI) from simulated effluents, the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs were systematically investigated. The results showed that the optimum pH value was 2.5, the removal percentage reached 90.7% for 30 mg/L of Cr(VI) within 120 min. The adsorption process was well described by pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The maximum adsorption capacities of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs were found to be 131.58, 183.82 and 211.42 mg/g at 293.15, 303.15 and 313.15 K, respectively, which were calculated from the Langmuir model equation. The adsorption thermodynamic parameters indicate that the adsorption of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs is a spontaneous endothermic process. The XPS analysis reveals the adsorption and removal mechanism of Cr(VI) on GO/PAMAMs that first the Cr(VI) binds to the protonated amine of GO/PAMAMs, then Cr(VI) be reduced to Cr(III) with the assistance of π-electrons on the carbocyclic six-membered ring of GO in GO/PAMAMs, and then Cr(III) was released into solution under the electrostatic repulsion between the Cr(III) and the protonated amine groups.

Project description:Ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) nanofiber membranes were prepared by melt-blending extrusion with cellulose acetate butyrate ester (CAB) as the matrix and a high-speed flow deposition process. Then, aminated-EVOH (l-Lys/EVOH, Cy/l-Lys/EVOH and DETA/EVOH) nanofiber membranes were prepared for hexavalent chromium [Cr(vi)] removal by facile chemical modification on the surface of EVOH nanofiber membranes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were carried out to test the morphology and structure of aminated-EVOH nanofiber membranes. Adsorption experiments suggested that amination was beneficial to adsorption, and the optimal pH for prepared membranes to Cr removal was 2.0. Adsorption kinetics analysis revealed that the adsorption process was successfully fitted with a Pseudo-second-order model. The Freundlich isothermal model well described the adsorption isotherm data. A thermodynamic study suggested that the adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. Aminated-EVOH nanofiber membranes exhibited excellent reusability for Cr removal. The Cr adsorption efficiency of DETA/EVOH nanofiber membranes retained up to 98.73% of the initial adsorption after 6 successive adsorption-desorption cycles.

Project description:The development of easier, cheaper, and more effective synthetic strategies for hierarchical multimodal porous materials and multi-shell hollow spheres remains a challenging topic to utilize them as adsorbents in environmental applications. Here, the hierarchical architecture of multi-shell hollow micro-meso-macroporous silica with pollen-like morphology (MS-HMS-PL) has been successfully synthesized via a facile soft-templating approach and characterized for the first time. MS-HMS-PL sub-microspheres showed a trimodal hierarchical pore architecture with a high surface area of 414.5 m2 g-1, surpassing most of the previously reported multishelled hollow nanomaterials. Due to its facile preparation route and good physicochemical properties, MS-HMS-PL could be a potential candidate material in water purification, catalysis, and drug delivery. To investigate the applicability of MS-HMS-PL as an adsorbent, its adsorption performance for Cr(VI) in water was evaluated. Important adsorption factors affecting the adsorption capacity of adsorbent were systematically studied and Kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics parameters were computed via the non-linear fitting technique. The maximum capacity of adsorption computed from the Langmuir isotherm equation for Cr(VI) on MS-HMS-PL was 257.67 mg g-1 at 293 K and optimum conditions (pH 4.0, adsorbent dosage 5.0 mg, and contact time 90 min).

Project description:An efficient composite was constructed based on aminated chitosan (NH2Cs), attapulgite (ATP) clay and magnetic Fe3O4 for adsorptive removal of Cr(VI) ions. The as-fabricated ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs composite was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermal Gravimetric Analyzer (TGA), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Zeta potential (ZP), Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method (BET) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS). A significant improve in the adsorption profile was established at pH 2 in the order of ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs(1:3) > ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs(1:1) > ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs(3:1) > Fe3O4-NH2Cs > ATP. The maximum removal (%) of Cr(VI) exceeded 94% within a short equilibrium time of 60 min. The adsorption process obeyed the pseudo 2nd order and followed the Langmuir isotherm model with a maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of 294.12 mg/g. In addition, thermodynamics studies elucidated that the adsorption process was spontaneous, randomness and endothermic process. Interestingly, the developed adsorbent retained respectable adsorption properties with acceptable removal efficiency exceeded 58% after ten sequential cycles of reuse. Besides, the results hypothesize that the adsorption process occurs via electrostatic interactions, reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) and ion-exchanging. These findings substantiate that the ATP@Fe3O4-NH2Cs composite could be effectively applied as a reusable adsorbent for removing of Cr(VI) ions from aqueous solutions.

Project description:Water pollution caused by the highly toxic metal hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) creates significant human health and ecological risks. In this study, a novel adsorbent was used to treat Cr(VI)-containing wastewater; the adsorbent was prepared using red mud (RM) generated from the alumina production industry and the rare earth element lanthanum. This study explored adsorption performance, kinetics, and mechanisms. Results showed that the adsorption kinetics of the RM modified by lanthanum (La-RM), followed the pseudo-second-order model, with a rapid adsorption rate. Cr(VI) adsorption was positively associated with the absorbent dose, pH, temperature, and initial Cr(VI) concentration; coexisting anions had little impact. The maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity was 17.35 mg/g. Cr(VI) adsorption on La-RM was a mono-layer adsorption pattern, following the Langmuir isotherm model. Thermodynamic parameters showed the adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic. The adsorption of Cr(VI) on La-RM occurred as a result of LaOCl formation on the RM surface, which in turn further reacted with Cr(VI) in the wastewater. This study highlighted a method for converting industrial waste into a valuable material for wastewater treatment. The novel absorbent could be used as a potential adsorbent for treating Cr(VI)-contaminating wastewater, due to its cost-effectiveness and high adsorption capability.

Project description:Novel modified Ni/Fe layered double hydroxides with different morphology of spherical - like shape were fabricated via using urea as a ligand and glycerol (Ni/Fe LDH/GL) with Ni:Fe molar ratios of 2:1 by the simplest co -precipitation method. Also, for comparison purposes, Ni/Fe LDH was synthesized to be used as a control one. A suggested interpretation for the morphology change was also given. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), The Fourier transform infrared (FT - IR) spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), EDX for elemental analysis, high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller (BET) equation, particle size distributions and Zeta potential measurements. In addition, the synthesized materials were used as adsorbents for removal of potassium dichromate from aqueous solutions under various experimental conditions. The adsorption of Cr (VI) was strongly pH dependant and the pHPZC was studied. Kinetic studies were evaluated through different models including, pseudo first and second orders, mixed 1, 2 orders, intra particle diffusion and Avrami models. For adsorption isotherms, two-parameter models (Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin) and three parameter models (Sips, Langmuir-Freundlich and Tooth) were investigated showing maximum adsorption capacity of 50.43?mg/g and 136.05?mg/g for Ni/Fe LDH and Ni/Fe LDH/GL, respectively. Also, the effect of temperature was investigated at (23, 35, 45, 55?°C) and the thermodynamic parameters (?H°, ?S° and ?G°) were calculated showing exothermic and spontaneous adsorption process. The effect of coexisting anions (Cl-, SO42- and HPO42-) and humic acid at different concentrations on the removal efficiency of dichromate ions was investigated. Chemical stability and recyclability of these adsorbents were also studied. The intermolecular hydrogen bonds formation between dichromate ion, urea, glycerol, LDH was explored by Monte Carlo simulation This study suggested that the modified Ni/Fe LDH/GL materials were promising nanoadsorbents for efficient potassium dichromate removal.

Project description:Hydrochars were prepared from Salix by hydrothermal carbonization, and characterized by FT-IR, 13C NMR, XPS, UV-vis, TG, SEM and BET techniques. The results showed that the hydrochars with molecular sieve-type open pore structure contained numbers of oxygen and nitrogen functional groups, which benefited the adsorption and diffusion of adsorbent Cr (VI). The hydrochar obtained from 26?h reaction (HC-26) was indicated an excellent adsorbent compared to the commercial activated carbon, and its maximum removal efficiency for Cr (VI) reaches up to 99.84% at pH 1. Langmuir´s model is well fitted the experimental equilibrium adsorption data of total Cr. The bath experiment results showed that Cr (VI) could be removed rapidly in the first 300?min. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetics process of HC-26 could be described by pseudo-second-order model. Based on the above results, HC-26 could be acted as a potential efficient adsorbent for removal of Cr (VI) from aqueous solution.

Project description:Heavy metal ions in water refer to significant risks to the biological system due to their high toxicity. Therefore, the decontamination of water polluted by heavy metal ions attracts significant interest of researchers. Adsorption by nanomaterials has been a widely used technique for removing heavy metal ions from water. Chitosan was extracted from shrimp shellfish and mixed with laboratory-prepared AgNPs/GO in the ratio of 3 : 1. A series of tests evaluates the best condition of pH, amount of adsorbent, retention time, stirring speed, temp, and initial concentration. The research was conducted under various conditions. Langmuir, Freundlich, Tempkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherms were also tested. Also, the column adsorption experiment was carried out on industrial wastewater at different flow rates and column bed heights. The optimal values of the contact time, pH, and adsorbent dose of Cr(vi) were found to be 80 min, 4, and 0.1 g 100 mL-1, respectively, at room temperature (30 °C), agitation at 150 rpm, and initial concentration of 50 ppm. On the other hand, the optimal value of contact time, pH, and adsorbent dose of Fe(iii) were found to be 30 min, 6, and 0.02 g 100 mL-1, respectively, at room temp (30 °C) with a stirring speed of 250 rpm and an initial concentration of 40 ppm. For Cr(vi) and Fe(iii), equilibrium studies show that the data fit the Freundlich isotherm well (correlation coefficient, R 2 = 0.98) (III). A link between the pseudo-second order active model and data fitting the pseudo-first order active models were made. Within the intraparticle diffusion model, there are four stages that the mechanism must go through before it is at equilibrium. The adsorbent was tested in an industrial adsorbent column. This test proves that the nanocomposite's adsorption capacity can be restored by washing it with 0.1 M HCl, as shown by the periodicity test. After four cycles, the amount of Cr(vi) adsorbed on AgNPs/GO/chitosan was just 20%, which is insufficient for further adsorption experiments. Cr(vi) removal rates (%R) decreased slightly.
