A Comparative Study on Hexavalent Chromium Adsorption onto Chitosan and Chitosan-Based Composites.

ABSTRACT: Chitosan (Cs)-based composites were developed by incorporating silica (Cs-Si), and both silica and hydroxyapatite (Cs-Si-Hap), comparatively tested to sequester hexavalent (Cr(VI)) ions from water. XRD and FT-IR data affirmed the formation of Cs-Si and Cs-Si-Hap composite. Morphological images exhibits homogeneous Cs-Si surface, decorated with SiO₂ nanoparticles, while the Cs-Si-Hap surface was non-homogeneous with microstructures, having SiO₂ and Hap nanoparticles. Thermal analysis data revealed excellent thermal stability of the developed composites. Significant influence of pH, adsorbent dose, contact time, temperature, and coexisting anions on Cr(VI) adsorption onto composites was observed. Maximum Cr(VI) uptakes on Cs and developed composites were observed at pH 3. The equilibration time for Cr(VI) adsorption on Cs-Si-Hap was 10 min, comparatively better than Cs and Cs-Si. The adsorption data was fitted to pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models with respective maximum monolayer adsorption capacities (q_m) of 55.5, 64.4, and 212.8 mg/g for Cs, Cs-Si, and Cs-Si-Hap. Regeneration studies showed that composites could be used for three consecutive cycles without losing their adsorption potential.

Adsorption of Hexavalent Chromium and Divalent Lead Ions on the Nitrogen-Enriched Chitosan-Based Activated Carbon.

Project description:Optimizing the physicochemical properties of the chitosan-based activated carbon (Ch-ACs) can greatly enhance its performance toward heavy metal removal from contaminated water. Herein, Ch was converted into a high surface area (1556 m2/g) and porous (0.69 cm3/g) ACs with large content of nitrogen (~16 wt%) using K2CO3 activator and urea as nitrogen-enrichment agents. The prepared Ch-ACs were tested for the removal of Cr(VI) and Pb(II) at different pH, initial metal ions concentration, time, activated carbon dosage, and temperature. For Cr(VI), the best removal was at pH = 2, while for Pb(II) the best pH for its removal was in the range of 4-6. At 25 °C, the Temkin model gives the best fit for the adsorption of Cr(VI), while the Langmuir model was found to be better for Pb(II) ions. The kinetics of adsorption of both heavy metal ions were found to be well-fitted by a pseudo-second-order model. The findings show that the efficiency and the green properties (availability, recyclability, and cost effectiveness) of the developed adsorbent made it a good candidate for wastewaters treatment. As preliminary work, the prepared sorbent was also tested regarding the removal of heavy metals and other contaminations from real wastewater and the obtained results were found to be promising.

Immobilization of catalase onto chitosan and chitosan-bentonite complex: A comparative study.

Project description:The immobilization of catalase onto chitosan and chitosan-bentonite was investigated and immobilization yield of 95.91 and 95.26 was obtained respectively. The optimum pH and temperature were found as 7.5 and 8.0 at 40 °C for free and immobilized enzyme. The value of Vmax decreased by 33,000-26,300, 24,500 μmol (min mg protein)-1 and Km increased by 12.5-25 and 20 mM for free and immobilized on chitosan and chitosan-bentonite respectively. The thermal stability, half life, FTIR analyses of the beads was also performed in order to characterise the structural differences. The remaining immobilized catalase onto chitosan and chitosan-bentonite activity was 50% and 70% after 20 cycles respectively. The storage stability were found as 22%, 60%, and 70% from its original activity in case of free enzyme and immobilization of chitosan, chitosan-bentonite beads respectively after 60 days.

Adsorption of Hexavalent Chromium by Sodium Alginate Fiber Biochar Loaded with Lanthanum.

Project description:Lanthanun oxide (La2O3) is a lanthanum chemical compound incorporates a sensible anionic complexing ability; however, it lacks stability at a low pH scale. Biochar fibers will give the benefit of their massive space and plethoric uses on the surface to support a metal chemical compound. Herein, wet spinning technology was used to load La3+ onto sodium alginate fiber, and to convert La3+ into La2O3 through carbonization. The La2O3-modified biochar (La-BC) fiber was characterized by SEM, XRD and XPS, etc. An adsorption experiment proved that La-BC showed an excellent adsorption capacity for chromates, and its saturation adsorption capacity was about 104.9 mg/g. The information suggested that the adsorption was in step with both the Langmuir and Freundlich models, following pseudo-second-order surface assimilation mechanics, which showed that the Cr (VI) adsorption was characterized by single-phase and polyphase adsorption, mainly chemical adsorption. The thermodynamic parameters proved that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The mechanistic investigation revealed that the mechanism of the adsorption of Cr (VI) by La-BC may include electrostatic interaction, ligand exchange, or complexation. Moreover, the co-existing anions and regeneration experiments proved that the La-BC is recyclable and has good prospects in the field of chrome-containing wastewater removal.

Synthesis, Characterization and Hexavalent Chromium Adsorption Characteristics of Aluminum- and Sucrose-Incorporated Tobermorite.

Project description:Tobermorites were synthesized from the lime-quartz slurries with incorporations of aluminum and sucrose under hydrothermal conditions, and then used for adsorption of Cr(VI). The chemical components, and structural and morphological properties of tobermorite were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) and N₂ adsorption-desorption measurements. The formation and crystallinity of tobermorite could be largely enhanced by adding 2.3 wt.% aluminum hydroxide or 13.3 wt.% sucrose. Sucrose also played a significantly positive role in increasing the surface area. The adsorption performances for Cr(VI) were tested using a batch method taking into account the effects of pH, the adsorption kinetics, and the adsorption isotherms. The adsorption capacities of the aluminum- and sucrose-incorporated tobermorites reached up to 31.65 mg/g and 28.92 mg/g, respectively. Thus, the synthesized tobermorites showed good adsorption properties for removal of Cr(VI), making this material a promising candidate for efficient bulk wastewater treatment.

A Comparative Study of the Adsorption of Methylene Blue onto Synthesized Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron-Bamboo and Manganese-Bamboo Composites.

Project description:In this study, bamboo impregnated with nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and nanoscale manganese (nMn) were prepared by the aqueous phase borohydride reduction method and characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and PIXE analysis. The synthesized nMn-bamboo and nZVI-bamboo composites were subsequently applied to the sorption of methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solution. The adsorption of MB dye was investigated under various experimental conditions such as pH, contact time, initial concentration of MB dye and adsorbent dosage. The results showed that the synthesized nZVI-bamboo composite was more effective than nMn-bamboo composite in terms of higher MB dye adsorption capacity of 322.5 mg/g compared to 263.5 mg/g of nMn-bamboo composite. At a concentration of 140 mg/L MB dye, 0.02 g of nZVI-bamboo and nMn-bamboo composites resulted in 79.6% and 78.3% removal, respectively, at 165 rpm, contact time of 120 min and at a solution pH of 7.6. The equilibrium data was best represented by Freundlich isotherm model and the pseudo-second order kinetic model better explained the kinetic data for both nZVI-bamboo and nMn-bamboo composites.

Synergy of Photocatalysis and Adsorption for Simultaneous Removal of Hexavalent Chromium and Methylene Blue by g-C3N4/BiFeO3/Carbon Nanotubes Ternary Composites.

Project description:A novel graphite-phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4)/bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) ternary magnetic composite (CNBT) was prepared by a hydrothermal synthesis. Using this material, Cr(VI) and methylene blue (MB) were removed from wastewater through synergistic adsorption and photocatalysis. The effects of pH, time, and pollutant concentration on the photocatalytic performance of CNBT, as well as possible interactions between Cr(VI) and MB species were analyzed. The obtained results showed that CNTs could effectively reduce the recombination rate of electron-hole pairs during the photocatalytic reaction of the g-C3N4/BiFeO3 composite, thereby improving its photocatalytic performance, while the presence of MB increased the reduction rate of Cr(VI). After 5 h of the simultaneous adsorption and photocatalysis by CNBT, the removal rates of Cr(VI) and MB were 93% and 98%, respectively. This study provides a new theoretical basis and technical guidance for the combined application of photocatalysis and adsorption in the treatment of wastewaters containing mixed pollutants.

Study on the Adsorption Properties of Graphene Oxide/Laponite RD/Chitosan Composites.

Project description:A novel Graphene oxide/Laponite RD/Chitosan ternary composite was synthesized by sol-gel method and freeze-drying method. The Laponite RD was silanized by 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared by an improved Hummers method. Under the acidic conditions, self-assembly recombination was realized by electrostatic interaction between modified Laponite RD and GO. The results from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy confirmed that the modified Laponite RD was successfully compounded with GO, and the composite is laminated and stacked. The results from BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) methods found that the BET-specific surface area of the hybrid aerogel significantly increased with the increase of the doping content of the composite, and the specific surface area of the aerogel composite with 20% doping content reached 81 m2/g. The structure of aerogel is porous, and there are numerous holes in the interior, which is closely related to adsorption properties. Thermogravimetric analysis (TG) test was used to explore the change of thermal properties of hybrid aerogel materials, and it was found that the addition of composite increased the initial decomposition temperature and thermal stability of hybrid aerogel. Finally, the potential applications of aerogel were tested, such as methylene blue adsorption and CO2 adsorption.

Adsorption mechanism of Cr(VI) onto GO/PAMAMs composites.

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.

Selective adsorption and determination of hexavalent chromium ions using graphene oxide modified with amino silanes.

Project description:Novel adsorbents are described for the preconcentration of chromium(VI). Graphene oxide (GO) was modified with various amino silanes containing one, two, or three nitrogen atoms in the molecule. These include 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), N-(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)ethylenediamine (TMSPEDA), and N1-(3-trimethoxysilylpropyl)diethylenetriamine (TMSPDETA). The resulting GO derivatives were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF). Adsorption studies show that these GO based sorbents are highly selective for Cr(VI) in the presence of Cr(III) at pH 3.5. Although the amino silanes applied in modification of GO contain different numbers of nitrogen atoms, the maximum adsorption capacities of GO derivatives are very similar (13.3-15.1 mg·g-1). Such results are in accordance with spectroscopy studies which show that the amount of amino silanes attached to GO decreases in the order of APTES > TMSPEDA > TMSPDETA. The APTES-modified GO was applied to selective and sensitive extraction of Cr(VI) ions prior to quantitation by low-power EDXRF using the Cr Kα line. The Cr(VI) ions need not be eluted from the solid adsorbent. The method has a 0.17 ng·mL-1 detection limit, and the recovery is 99.7 ± 2.2% at a spiking level of 10 ng·mL-1. The method was successfully applied to the determination of Cr(VI) in water samples. Graphical abstractGraphene oxide adsorbents modified with various amino silanes are described for the preconcentration and speciation of trace and ultratrace levels of chromium ions.

Preparation and characterization of Allium cepa extract coated biochar and adsorption performance for hexavalent chromium.

Project description:The elimination of hazardous metal ions from contaminated water has been an important procedure to improve the quality of the water source. Hence, this study presents the fabrication of Allium cepa extract-coated biochar for the elimination of Cr (VI) from wastewater. The synthesized biochar (SBCH) and modified biochar (BMOJ) were characterized by making use of FTIR, BET, XRD, TGA and SEM. Optimum Cr (VI) removal was achieved at solution pH 2, 0.05 g adsorbent dosage and 180 min agitation period. The adsorptive removal of Cr (VI) onto SBCH and BMOJ followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model with a satisfactory sum of square residuals (SSR) of 3.874 and 5.245 for SBCH and BMOJ, respectively. Meanwhile, Freundlich isotherm was found to best describe the uptake of Cr (VI) SBCH and BMOJ. Experimental data showed an adsorption capacity of 37.38 and 25.77 mg g-1 and a maximum efficiency of 85.42% and 51.63% for BMOJ and SBCH, respectively. BMOJ also showed good antioxidant characteristics. Thermodynamic data revealed that the uptake of Cr (VI) onto the SBCH and BMOJ was an exothermic and endothermic (ΔH: SBCH = - 16.22 kJ mol-1 and BMOJ = 13.74 kJ mol-1), entropy-driven (ΔS: SBCH = 40.96 J K-1 mol-1 and BMOJ = 93.26 J K-1 mol-1) and spontaneous process. Furthermore, BMOJ demonstrated excellent reusability and promising characteristics for industrial applications.
