Development of Lignin-Based Mesoporous Carbons for the Adsorption of Humic Acid.

ABSTRACT: There is an increasing urge to make the transition toward biobased materials. Lignin, originating from lignocellulosic biomass, can be potentially valorized as humic acid (HA) adsorbents via lignin-based mesoporous carbon (MC). In this work, these materials were synthesized for the first time starting from modified lignin as the carbon precursor, using the soft-template methodology. The use of a novel synthetic approach, Claisen rearrangement of propargylated lignin, and a variety of surfactant templates (Pluronic, Kraton, and Solsperse) have been demonstrated to tune the properties of the resulting MCs. The obtained materials showed tunable properties (BET surface area: 95-367 m²/g, pore size: 3.3-36.6 nm, V _BJH pore volume: 0.05-0.33 m³/g, and carbon and oxygen content: 55.5-91.1 and 3.0-12.2%, respectively) and good performance in terms of one of the highest HA adsorption capacities reported for carbon adsorbents (up to 175 mg/g).

Adsorption behaviour of hydrogarnet for humic acid.

Project description:Discharge of humic acid (HA) in aqueous environments is a key health and aesthetic issue. The present work investigates the use of hydrogarnet as a novel adsorbent for HA. Hydrogarnet was hydrothermally synthesized with different solvents to control the chemical composition. Hydrogarnet with three types of chemical compositions had better adsorption properties for HA than hydrogarnet with a single chemical composition. Controlling the chemical composition of hydrogarnet increased the number of hydroxyl groups and the overall binding energy of the system, leading to changes in the zeta potential. The enhancement of these adsorption properties is related to the increased numbers of hydroxyl groups on the surface and their diverse binding energies.

Tuning the Pore Geometry of Ordered Mesoporous Carbons for Enhanced Adsorption of Bisphenol-A.

Project description:Mesoporous carbons were synthesized via both soft and hard template methods and compared to a commercial powder activated carbon (PAC) for the adsorption ability of bisphenol-A (BPA) from an aqueous solution. The commercial PAC had a BET-surface of 1027 m²/g with fine pores of 3 nm and less. The hard templated carbon (CMK-3) material had an even higher BET-surface of 1420 m²/g with an average pore size of 4 nm. The soft templated carbon (SMC) reached a BET-surface of 476 m²/g and a pore size of 7 nm. The maximum observed adsorption capacity (qmax) of CMK-3 was the highest with 474 mg/g, compared to 290 mg/g for PAC and 154 mg/g for SMC. The difference in adsorption capacities was attributed to the specific surface area and hydrophobicity of the adsorbent. The microporous PAC showed the slowest adsorption, while the ordered mesopores of SMC and CMK-3 enhanced the BPA diffusion into the adsorbent. This difference in adsorption kinetics is caused by the increase in pore diameter. However, CMK-3 with an open geometry consisting of interlinked nanorods allows for even faster intraparticle diffusion.

Soft-Templating of Sulfur and Iron Dual-Doped Mesoporous Carbons: Lead Adsorption in Mixtures.

Project description:Lead pollution in drinking water is one of the most common problems worldwide. In this research, sulfur and iron dual-doped mesoporous carbons are synthesized by soft-templating with sulfur content 4.4-6.1 atom% and iron content 7.8-9 atom%. Sulfur functionalities of the carbons are expected to enhance the affinity of the carbon toward lead whereas iron content is expected to separate the carbon from water owing to its magnetic properties. All the carbons were characterized by pore textural properties, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive x-ray (EDX). In order to study the Pb(II) removal efficiently of this carbon in competitive mode and to mimic the real-world use, one additional heavy-metal, including Cr(III), and four other commonly occurring metals-Na(I), K(I), Ca(II) and Fe (III)-are added with lead prior to adsorption experiments. It was observed that Pb(II) adsorption capacity of this carbon was not influenced by the presence of other metals. A highly elevated concentration of Na(I), K(I), Ca(II) and Fe(III) in the eluting solution compared to the initial dose suggested possible leaching of those metals from other salts as impurities, water source or even from the carbon itself, although the XPS analysis of the carbon confirmed negligible adsorption of those metals in carbon. From the equilibrium and kinetic data of adsorption, few parameters have been calculated, including distribution coefficient, diffusive time constant and pseudosecond order rate constant. The overall results suggest that these iron and sulfur dual-doped mesoporous carbons can serve as potential adsorbents for removal of lead from drinking water in the presence of other competing metals.

Study of Humic Acid Adsorption Character on Natural Maifan Stone: Characterization, Kinetics, Adsorption Isotherm, and Thermodynamics.

Project description:In this paper, the adsorption of humic acid (HA) on natural maifan stone (MS) in aqueous medium was investigated. The changes in MS after adsorption have been characterized explicitly. The adsorption behavior was studied by varying the factors of pH (5-10), reaction time (10-180 min), initial HA concentration (5-50 mg/L), adsorbent dosage (0.1-1.2 g), and temperature (25-45 °C). The kinetics of the adsorption process of HA was fitted well with the pseudo-second-order model (R 2 = 0.99). The isothermal results revealed that the adsorption process is favorable, and highly fitting Langmuir models (R 2 > 0.99) were used. Additionally, the obtained maximum adsorption capacity of MS for HA was approximately 1 mg/g. The adsorption process of HA onto MS was endothermic according to the thermodynamic study. The changes in the excitation-emission-matrix of HA and the X-ray diffraction of MS after adsorption indicate the interaction of HA and MS. However, the reason for these changes is still unclear. Thus, the results show that the natural MS exhibited a certain adsorption capacity for HA. It is promising to develop novel natural MS-based materials for adsorption of HA.

Incorporation of humic acid into biomass derived carbon for enhanced adsorption of phenol.

Project description:In the present work, the biomass derived carbon decorated with humic acid (HC), was synthesized through impregnation method for the adsorption of phenol from water environment. Humic acids contain more oxygen-containing functional groups and hydrogen bonds, which promotes the binding between HC and phenol molecules. The results indicated that the adsorption performance of HC to phenol was better than that of commercial activated carbon. Moreover, in addition to physical absorption, the chemical reaction between carboxylic groups on the carbon surface and hydroxyl in phenol also played an important role during the process. The adsorption behavior of HC was described by equilibrium and kinetics parameters. Pseudo-second order model can describe the adsorption process well. Langmuir model was more suitable for the equilibrium adsorption data fitting, indicating that the adsorption mechanism of phenol on carbon surface tends to be monolayer adsorption. Considering practical application, UV254, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and ammonia from raw wastewater were selected as target contaminants and the corresponding adsorption experiments were carried out. The results displayed that HC exhibited excellent adsorption performance, especially for UV254, indicating that as-prepared carbon material had potential application for the control of certain organic pollutants in actual wastewater.

Tetracycline Adsorption on Magnetic Sludge Biochar: Effects of pH, Humic Acid (HA), and Fulvic Acid (FA).

Project description:Natural organic matters (NOMs) are ubiquitous in the environment, but few systematic studies have examined the influence of NOMs on the sorption ability of magnetic sludge biochar. In this study, magnetic sludge biochar was synthesized, characterized, and used as a sorbent to remove tetracycline (TC) from aqueous solutions. The effects of pH, humic acid (HA), and fulvic acid (FA) on TC adsorption by magnetic sludge biochar were studied using batch experiments. Adding HA and FA can alter the adsorption behavior of TC, except for its pH dependency. The results of this study show that relatively low concentrations of dissolved HA (≤8 ppm) and FA (≤5 ppm) promote the adsorption capacity of TC, but higher concentrations compete against TC for sorption sites on the surface of magnetic sludge biochar. The results of this study promote a better understanding of the application of magnetic sludge biochar in real antibiotic wastewater.

Accelerated Synthesis of Ordered Mesoporous Carbons Using Plasma.

Project description:Conventional ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC) production usually requires long processing times in the carbonization step to achieve desired temperatures through controlled ramps. To enable expedited materials discovery, developing advanced manufacturing capability with significantly improved throughput is highly desired. Current approaches for accelerating the synthesis of OMCs include using microwave and Joule heating. However, both methods rely on the introduction of additional components, such as microwave absorbers and electrically conductive agents, within the bulk materials to impart the ability to reach high carbonization temperatures. This work demonstrates accelerated synthesis and functionalization of OMCs through the use of a dielectric barrier discharge plasma, where carbonization can be accomplished within 15 min using 30 W plasma sources, representing more than an order of magnitude increase in polymer-to-carbon conversion kinetics compared to that of a traditionally pyrolyzed analogue. Particularly, the ability of performing rapid carbonization without the use of additional substrates within the OMC precursor systems is advantageous. A systematic investigation of how plasma power, time, and gas atmosphere impact the resulting OMC pore textures and properties is performed, demonstrating the broad applicability of plasma-enabled carbonization methods. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the plasma treatment strategy can be extended to incorporate heteroatoms into the carbon framework by introducing ammonia gas, resulting in OMCs with a nitrogen content up to 4.7 at %, as well as non-Pluronic templating systems for synthesizing OMC with pore sizes larger than 10 nm. As employing a plasma source for materials pyrolysis is an industrially relevant approach, our system can be extended toward scaled synthesis of OMCs with much faster production rates.

Polyaspartic Acid-Derived Micro-/Mesoporous Carbon for Ultrahigh H2 and CH4 Adsorption.

Project description:A poly(amino acid)-based approach for scalable synthesis of micro-/mesoporous carbon (PC) with high specific surface area and narrow distribution of micro- and mesopores is presented. Using cross-linked poly aspartic acid as a precursor, PC was obtained by in situ one-step carbonization without the activating agent. The resulting PC had an ultrahigh adsorption capacity for H2 (4.43 wt %) and CH4 (4.49 mmol g-1). This novel method could significantly decrease the wastewater hazards caused by washout of the considerable amount of the activating agent. The PC showed promising application in gas adsorption and storage.

Synergistic removal of Pb(II), Cd(II) and humic acid by Fe3O4@mesoporous silica-graphene oxide composites.

Project description:The synergistic adsorption of heavy metal ions and humic acid can be very challenging. This is largely because of their competitive adsorption onto most adsorbent materials. Hierarchically structured composites containing polyethylenimine-modified magnetic mesoporous silica and graphene oxide (MMSP-GO) were here prepared to address this. Magnetic mesoporous silica microspheres were synthesized and functionalized with PEI molecules, providing many amine groups for chemical conjugation with the carboxyl groups on GO sheets and enhanced the affinity between the pollutants and the mesoporous silica. The features of the composites were characterized using TEM, SEM, TGA, DLS, and VSM measurements. Series adsorption results proved that this system was suitable for simultaneous and efficient removal of heavy metal ions and humic acid using MMSP-GO composites as adsorbents. The maximum adsorption capacities of MMSP-GO for Pb(II) and Cd (II) were 333 and 167 mg g(-1) caculated by Langmuir model, respectively. HA enhances adsorption of heavy metals by MMSP-GO composites due to their interactions in aqueous solutions. The underlying mechanism of synergistic adsorption of heavy metal ions and humic acid were discussed. MMSP-GO composites have shown promise for use as adsorbents in the simultaneous removal of heavy metals and humic acid in wastewater treatment processes.
