Removal of Nickel Ions from Aqueous Solutions by 2-Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Itaconic Acid Hydrogels Optimized with Response Surface Methodology.

ABSTRACT: The adsorption of Ni²⁺ ions from water solutions by using hydrogels based on 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) and itaconic acid (IA) was studied. Hydrogel synthesis was optimized with response surface methodology (RSM). The hydrogel with the best adsorption capacity towards Ni²⁺ ions was chosen for further experiments. The hydrogel was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis before and after the adsorption of Ni²⁺ ions. Batch equilibrium experiments were conducted to investigate the influence of solution pH, hydrogel weight, ionic strength, adsorption time, temperature and initial concentration of nickel ions on the adsorption. Time-dependent adsorption fitted the best to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. A thermodynamic study revealed that the adsorption was an exothermic and non-spontaneous process. Five isotherm models were studied, and the best fit was obtained with the Redlich-Peterson model. Consecutive adsorption/desorption studies indicated that the HEA/IA hydrogel can be efficiently used as a sorbent for the removal of Ni²⁺ ions from the water solution. This study develops a potential adsorbent for the effective removal of trace nickel ions.

Advanced material and approach for metal ions removal from aqueous solutions.

Project description:A Novel approach to remove metals from aqueous solutions has been developed. The method is based on a resin free, solid, non-toxic, microcrystalline bisphosphonate material, which has very low solubility in water (59?mg/l to ion free Milli-Q water and 13?mg/l to 3.5% NaCl solution). The material has been produced almost quantitatively on a 1?kg scale (it has been prepared also on a pilot scale, ca. 7?kg) and tested successfully for its ability to collect metal cations from different sources, such as ground water and mining process waters. Not only was this material highly efficient at collecting several metal ions out of solution it also proved to be regenerable and reusable over a number of adsorption/desorption, which is crucial for environmental friendliness. This material has several advantages compared to the currently used approaches, such as no need for any precipitation step.

Removal of Nickel from Aqueous Solutions by Natural Bentonites from Slovakia.

Project description:In this study, the removal of nickel (Ni(II)) by adsorption from synthetically prepared solutions using natural bentonites (Lieskovec (L), Hliník nad Hronom (S), Jelšový Potok (JP), and Stará Kremnička (SK)) was investigated. All experiments were carried out under batch processing conditions, with the concentration of Ni(II), temperature, and time as the variables. The adsorption process was fast, approaching equilibrium within 30 min. The Langmuir maximum adsorption capacities of the four bentonite samples used were found to be 8.41, 12.24, 21.79, and 21.93 mg g-1, respectively. The results best fitted the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, with constant rates in a range of 0.0948-0.3153 g mg-1 min. The effect of temperature was investigated at temperatures of 20, 30, and 40 °C. Thermodynamic parameters, including standard enthalpy (ΔH0), Gibbs energy (ΔG0), and standard entropy (ΔS0), were calculated. The adsorption of Ni(II) by bentonite samples was an endothermic and spontaneous process. These results indicated that, of the bentonite samples used, the natural bentonites from JP and SK were most suitable for the removal of nickel from synthetically prepared solutions.

The Effect of Hydrogen Bonding on Radical Semi-Batch Copolymerization of Butyl Acrylate and 2-Hydroxyethyl Acrylate.

Project description:The radical copolymerization of butyl acrylate (BA) and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) was investigated under batch and semi-batch operations, with a focus on the influence of hydrogen-bonding on acrylate backbiting. The effect of hydrogen bonding on HEA to BA relative incorporation rates during copolymerization, previously seen in low-conversion kinetic studies, was also observed under high-conversion semi-batch conditions. However, overall reaction rates (as indicated by free monomer concentrations), polymer molar masses, and branching levels did not vary as copolymer HEA content was increased from 0 to 40 wt % in the semi-batch system. In contrast, introduction of a H-bonding solvent, n-pentanol, led to an observable decrease in branching levels, and branching levels were also reduced in batch (co)polymerizations with HEA. These differences can be attributed to the low levels of unreacted HEA in the starved-feed semi-batch system.

Biodegradable cellulose nanocrystals hydrogels for removal of acid red 8 dye from aqueous solutions.

Project description:Biodegradable cellulose nanocrystals hydrogels (CNCsH) were synthesized from cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) which were prepared from office wastepaper (OWP) by a chemical crosslinking method using epicholorohydrin (ECH) as a cross-linker. CNCsH were tested for their swelling behavior and biodegradability and the point of zero charge had been determined. The ability of CNCsH for removing the Acid Red 8 (AR8) anionic dye from its aqueous solution was evaluated. The different parameters affecting removal of the dye, such as pH, initial concentration of dye, content of CNCs, temperature and adsorbent dosage were investigated. The optimum conditions for 68% removal efficiency were pH = 1, initial concentration of dye = 10 ppm, contact time = 105 min, CNCs content = 5% and CNCsH dosage = 0.5 g at 30 °C. The adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamic parameters have been studied. The results showed an appropriate fit for Langmuir adsorption isotherm and pseudo-second order kinetics model with an adsorption capacity of 17.12 mg/g. According to the obtained values of thermodynamic parameters, the removal of Acid red 8 by CNCs hydrogels was exothermic spontaneous process.

Highly robust, recyclable displacement assay for mercuric ions in aqueous solutions and living cells.

Project description:We designed a recyclable Hg(2+) probe based on Rhodamine B isothiocyanate (RBITC)-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-comodified gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with excellent robustness, selectivity, and sensitivity. On the basis of a rational design, only Hg(2+) can displace RBITC from the AuNP surfaces, resulting in a remarkable enhancement of RBITC fluorescence initially quenched by AuNPs. To maintain stability and monodispersity of AuNPs in real samples, thiol-terminated PEG was employed to bind with the remaining active sites of AuNPs. Besides, this displacement assay can be regenerated by resupplying free RBITC into the AuNPs solutions that were already used for detecting Hg(2+). Importantly, the detection limit of this assay for Hg(2+) (2.3 nM) was lower than the maximum limits guided by the United States Environmental Protection Agency as well as that permitted by the World Health Organization. The efficiency of this probe was demonstrated in monitoring Hg(2+) in complex samples such as river water and living cells.

Thermal contraction of aqueous glycerol and ethylene glycol solutions for optimized protein-crystal cryoprotection.

Project description:The thermal contraction of aqueous cryoprotectant solutions on cooling to cryogenic temperatures is of practical importance in protein cryocrystallography and in biological cryopreservation. In the former case, differential contraction on cooling of protein molecules and their lattice relative to that of the internal and surrounding solvent may lead to crystal damage and the degradation of crystal diffraction properties. Here, the amorphous phase densities of aqueous solutions of glycerol and ethylene glycol at T = 77 K have been determined. Densities with accuracies of <0.5% to concentrations as low as 30%(w/v) were determined by rapidly cooling drops with volumes as small as 70 pl, assessing their optical clarity and measuring their buoyancy in liquid nitrogen-argon solutions. The use of these densities in contraction matching of internal solvent to the available solvent spaces is complicated by several factors, most notably the exclusion of cryoprotectants from protein hydration shells and the expected deviation of the contraction behavior of hydration water from bulk water. The present methods and results will assist in developing rational approaches to cryoprotection and an understanding of solvent behavior in protein crystals.

Vapor-Liquid Equilibria Data for 2-Piperidineethanol and 1-(2-Hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine in Aqueous Solutions and a UNIQUAC Model Representation.

Project description:This work reports equilibrium data for two amines, 2-piperidineethanol (2-PPE) and 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine (1-(2HE)PRLD), and their aqueous solutions. The pressure, temperature, and composition data are used to calculate experimental activities. Data cover temperatures from 363 to 426 K for the pure amines and from 323 to 373 K for the aqueous solutions. A UNIQUAC model was used to represent the binary vapor-liquid equilibria (VLE), whereas the Antoine equation was used for pure components. In an aqueous solution, the vapor pressure of 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine (1-(2HE)PRLD) over the measured composition and temperature ranges is higher than that of 2-piperidineethanol (2-PPE). The developed UNIQUAC models represent the data well. For 2-piperidineethanol (2-PPE), the model gave 1.9% deviations for total pressure, 12.4% for vapor-phase composition, 12.7% for the calculated activity coefficients, and 16.2% for the excess heat capacity. In the case of 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine (1-(2HE)PRLD), the model was slightly more accurate, representing the data with 1.7% deviation for total pressure, 5.9% for vapor-phase composition, and 5.2% for the calculated activity coefficient.

Adsorptive recovery of arsenic (III) ions from aqueous solutions using dried <i>Chlamydomonas</i> sp.

Project description:The present study aimed to descry the effectiveness of dried microalga Chlamydomonas sp. for disposing of arsenic from aqueous solution. The study included examining the impact of some factors on algae's adsorption capacity (optimization study), such as initial concentrations of heavy metal, biosorbent doses, pH and contact time. All trials have been performed at constant temperature 25 °C and shaking speed of 300 rpm. The optimization studying indicated the pH 4, contact time at 60 min, temperature 25 °C and biomass concentration of 0.6 g/l were the best optimum conditions for the bioremediation activity with maximum removal percentage 95.2% and biosorption capacity 53.8 mg/g. Attesting of biosorption by applying FTIR (Fourier transfigure infrared), XRD (X-ray diffraction), SEM-EDX (Scanning Electron Microscope - Energy Dispersive X-ray), DLS (Dynamic light scarring) and ZP (Zeta Potential) was conducted. Also, Kinetics, isotherm equilibrium and thermodynamics were carried out to explain the plausible maximum biosorption capacity and biosorption rate of biosorbent q maximum.

Possible time-dependent effect of ions and hydrophilic surfaces on the electrical conductivity of aqueous solutions.

Project description:The purpose of this work was to determine the influence of mechanical and electrical treatment on the electrical conductivity of aqueous solutions. Solutions were treated mechanically by iteration of two steps: 1:100 dilution and vigorous shaking. These two processes were repeated until extremely dilute solutions were obtained. For electrical treatment the solutions were exposed to strong electrical impulses. Effects of mechanical (as well as electrical) treatment could not be demonstrated using electrical conductivity measurements. However, significantly higher conductivity than those of the freshly prepared chemically analogous solutions was found in all aged solutions except for those samples stored frozen. The results surprisingly resemble a previously observed weak gel-like behavior in water stored in closed flasks. We suggest that ions and contact with hydrophilic glass surfaces could be the determinative conditions for the occurrence of this phenomenon.
