Simultaneous adsorption of As(III) and Cd(II) by ferrihydrite-modified biochar in aqueous solution and their mutual effects.

ABSTRACT: A simply synthetic ferrihydrite-modified biochar (Fh@BC) was applied to simultaneously remove As(III) and Cd(II) from the aqueous solution, and then to explore the mutual effects between As(III) and Cd(II) and the corresponding mechanisms. The Langmuir maximum adsorption capacities of As(III) and Cd(II) in the single adsorbate solution were 18.38 and 18.18 mg g^-1, respectively. It demonstrated that Fh@BC was a potential absorbent material for simultaneous removal of As(III) and Cd(II) in aqueous solution. According to the XRF, SEM-EDS, FTIR, XRD, and XPS analysis, the mechanisms of simultaneous removal of As(III) and Cd(II) by Fh@BC could be attributable to the cation exchange, complexation with R-OH and Fe-OH, and oxidation. Moreover, the mutual effect experiment indicated that Cd(II) and As(III) adsorption on Fh@BC in the binary solution exhibited competition, facilitation and synergy, depending on their ratios and added sequences. The mechanisms of facilitation and synergy between Cd(II) and As(III) might include the electrostatic interaction and the formation of both type A or type B ternary surface complexes on the Fh@BC.

Project description:Phosphorus (P) is a nutrient necessary for agricultural production and a potential originator for eutrophication in water bodies, resulting in qualitative changes; it may also affect the aquatic ecosystem and human health. In addition, as a finite resource, the importance of studying strategies to remove it from water is evident, thus making possible its recycling. Many studies have used powdered materials, including biochars, for P water decontamination; however, the difficulty of separating and collecting these materials from water after adsorption may be difficult. Therefore, using hybrid materials in which the fine particles (powder) are impregnated into larger, solid particles by means of a polymeric host can facilitate collection and reuse after P adsorption. In this context, this study aimed the synthesis and characterization of a new hybrid film formed by the biopolymer cellulose acetate (CA) and biochar (FAC-B) for P adsorption in aqueous solution. We obtained biochar from the pyrolysis of carrot residue (Daucus carota L.) and doped it with magnesium. As a biodegradable polymer and the most abundant natural polysaccharide in the environment, using CA as a biochar support material is an environmentally friendly alternative. We prepared the CA film with the casting method, and the biochar was inserted into the filmogenic solution in the same amount as the CA. The film was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), molecular absorption spectroscopy in the infrared region with an attenuated total reflectance (FTIR/ATR) accessory, and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS). We evaluated the thickness, weight, density, H2O uptake and H2O solubility of the produced FAC-B. The maximum adsorption capacity of P by FAC-B was 21.57 mg g-1, in agreement with the Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption value suggests that the film has the potential to be used as an efficient P adsorbent in water.
