Study on adsorption of phosphate from aqueous solution by zirconium modified coal gasification coarse slag.

ABSTRACT: Zr-modified materials have an adsorption affinity for phosphate ions, but because of the cost of carrier materials, they are difficult to apply on a large scale. Herein, coal gasification coarse slag (CGCS) was used as a carrier material and modified with Zr, and its dephosphorization performance was studied. A series of adsorbents with different CGCS/ZrOCl₂·8H₂O mass ratios were prepared, from which the adsorbent with a CGCS/ZrOCl₂·8H₂O mass ratio of 5 : 4 (denoted as CGCS-Zr4) was identified as the most promising for phosphate adsorption. The specific surface area of CGCS-Zr4 was much greater than that of raw CGCS (100.12 vs. 12.43 m² g^-1). CGCS-Zr4 showed good adsorption selectivity towards phosphate when competitive anions co-existed, and exhibited good reusability; the adsorption capacity in the fourth adsorption-desorption cycle remained above 11.98 mg g^-1. The adsorbent was also suitable for the continuous treatment of up to 830 and 743 bed volumes of synthesised and actual wastewater, respectively. The results of Fourier-transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that CGCS not only plays the role of a carrier, but also that Ca and Al in CGCS play an important role in phosphate adsorption. Compared with other carrier materials such as biochar and synthetic zeolite, CGCS has the advantages of a large stockpile, low cost, and easy availability. In addition, the preparation of CGCS-Zr4 is simpler and more energy-saving. Zr-modified CGCS is a promising dephosphorization material.

Antimonate sequestration from aqueous solution using zirconium, iron and zirconium-iron modified biochars.

Project description:Antimony (Sb) is increasingly being recognized as an important contaminant due to its various industrial applications and mining operations. Environmental remediation approaches for Sb are still lacking, as is the understanding of Sb environmental chemistry. In this study, biosolid biochar (BSBC) was produced and utilized to remove antimonate (Sb(V)) from aqueous solution. Zirconium (Zr), Zirconium-iron (Zr-Fe) and Fe-O coated BSBC were synthesized for enhancing Sb(V) sorption capacities of BSBC. The combined results of specific surface area, FTIR, SEM-EDS, TEM-EDS, and XPS confirmed that Zr and/or Zr-Fe were successfully coated onto BSBC. The effects of reaction time, pH, initial Sb(V) concentration, adsorbate doses, ionic strength, temperature, and the influence of major competitive co-existing anions and cations on the adsorption of Sb(V) were investigated. The maximum sorption capacity of Zr-O, Zr-Fe, Zr-FeCl3, Fe-O, and FeCl3 coated BSBC were 66.67, 98.04, 85.47, 39.68, and 31.54 mg/g respectively under acidic conditions. The XPS results revealed redox transformation of Sb(V) species to Sb(III) occurred under oxic conditions, demonstrating the biochar's ability to behave as an electron shuttle during sorption. The sorption study suggests that Zr-O and Zr-O-Fe coated BSBC could perform as favourable adsorbents for mitigating Sb(V) contaminated waters.

Phosphate Adsorption from Aqueous Solution Using Electrospun Cellulose Acetate Nanofiber Membrane Modified with Graphene Oxide/Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate.

Project description:Eutrophication and water pollution caused by a high concentration of phosphate are two concerning issues that affect water quality worldwide. A novel cellulose-based adsorbent, cellulose acetate/graphene oxide/sodium dodecyl sulphate (CA/GO/SDS), was developed for water treatment. A 13% CA solution in a mixture of acetone:dimethylacetamide (2:1) has been electrospun and complexed with a GO/SDS solution. The field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) showed that the CA membrane was pure white, while the CA/GO/SDS membrane was not as white as CA and its colour became darker as the GO content increased. The process of phosphate removal from the solutions was found to be aided by the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the CA modified with GO/SDS, as shown by infrared spectroscopy. An optimization condition for the adsorption process was studied by varying pH, immersion time, and the mass of the membrane. The experimental results from phosphate adsorption showed that CA/GO/SDS had an excellent pH adaptability, with an optimum pH of 7, and maximum removal (>87.0%) was observed with a membrane mass of 0.05 g at an initial concentration of 25 mg L-1. A kinetic study revealed that 180 min of contact time could adsorb about 87.2% of phosphate onto the CA/GO/SDS membrane. A typical pseudo-second-order kinetic model successfully portrayed the kinetic sorption of phosphate, and the adsorption equilibrium data were well-correlated with the Langmuir adsorption model, suggesting the monolayer coverage of adsorbed molecules.

Zirconium Component Modified Porous Nanowood for Efficient Removal of Phosphate from Aqueous Solutions.

Project description:Rapid urban industrialization and agricultural production have led to the discharge of excessive phosphate into aquatic systems, resulting in a rise in water pollution. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore efficient phosphate removal technologies. Herein, a novel phosphate capture nanocomposite (PEI-PW@Zr) with mild preparation conditions, environmental friendliness, recyclability, and high efficiency has been developed by modifying aminated nanowood with a zirconium (Zr) component. The Zr component imparts the ability to capture phosphate to the PEI-PW@Zr, while the porous structure provides a mass transfer channel, resulting in excellent adsorption efficiency. Additionally, the nanocomposite maintains more than 80% phosphate adsorption efficiency even after ten adsorption-desorption cycles, indicating its recyclability and potential for repeated use. This compressible nanocomposite provides novel insights into the design of efficient phosphate removal cleaners and offers potential approaches for the functionalization of biomass-based composites.

Using One-Step Acid Leaching for the Recovering of Coal Gasification Fine Slag as Functional Adsorbents: Preparation and Performance.

Project description:Coal gasification fine slag (FS), a kind of by-product of coal chemical industry, was recovered for the preparation of functional adsorbents by acid leaching process, which was orthogonally optimized by HCl, HNO3, HF, HAc, and H2SO4. Methylene blue (MB) was used to evaluate the performance of functional adsorbents. The results demonstrated that 57.6% of the leaching efficiency (RLE) and 162.94 mg/g of adsorption capacity (CAC) of MB were achieved under the optimal conditions of HNO3 of 2.0 mol/L, acid leaching time of 2.0 h, and acid leaching temperature of 293K. The detections on X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and BET surface area (SBET) indicated that the synthesized functional adsorbents were characterized by mesoporous materials. The good fitting of adsorption process using pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models demonstrated that the chemisorption contributed to MB removal. The results of thermodynamics further revealed that the adsorption process of MB occurred spontaneously due to the exothermic properties. The work is expected to develop a novel and cost-effective strategy for the safe disposal of FS, and potentially offer an alternative pathway to increase the additional value for the coal chemical industry.

Efficient Adsorption of Tebuconazole in Aqueous Solution by Calcium Modified Water Hyacinth-Based Biochar: Adsorption Kinetics, Mechanism, and Feasibility.

Project description:The application of fungicides (such as tebuconazole) can impose harmful impacts on the ecosystem and humans. In this study, a new calcium modified water hyacinth-based biochar (WHCBC) was prepared and its effectiveness for removing tebuconazole (TE) via adsorption from water was tested. The results showed that Ca was loaded chemically (CaC2O4) onto the surface of WHCBC. The adsorption capacity of the modified biochar increased by 2.5 times in comparison to that of the unmodified water hyacinth biochar. The enhanced adsorption was attributed to the improved chemical adsorption capacity of the biochar through calcium modification. The adsorption data were better fitted to the pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model, indicating that the adsorption process was dominated by monolayer adsorption. It was found that liquid film diffusion was the main rate-limiting step in the adsorption process. The maximum adsorption capacity of WHCBC was 40.5 mg/g for TE. The results indicate that the absorption mechanisms involved surface complexation, hydrogen bonding, and π-π interactions. The inhibitory rate of Cu2+ and Ca2+ on the adsorption of TE by WHCBC were at 4.05-22.8%. In contrast, the presence of other coexisting cations (Cr6+, K+, Mg2+, Pb2+), as well as natural organic matter (humic acid), could promote the adsorption of TE by 4.45-20.9%. In addition, the regeneration rate of WHCBC was able to reach up to 83.3% after five regeneration cycles by desorption stirring with 0.2 mol/L HCl (t = 360 min). The results suggest that WHCBC has a potential in application for removing TE from water.

Influence of Magnetic Nanoparticles on Modified Polypyrrole/m-Phenylediamine for Adsorption of Cr(VI) from Aqueous Solution.

Project description:A novel, modified polypyrrole/m-phenylediamine (PPy-mPD) composite, decorated with magnetite (Fe3O4) nanoparticles, and prepared via an in-situ oxidative polymerisation, was investigated. The PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was employed for the removal of highly toxic oxyanion hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) from an aqueous solution. The structure and successful formation of the PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was confirmed and investigated using various techniques. The presence of Fe3O4 was confirmed by high resolution transmission electron microscopy, with an appearance of Fe lattice fringes. The estimation of the saturation magnetisation of the nanocomposite, using a vibrating sample magnetometer, was observed to be 6.6 emu/g. In batch adsorption experiments, PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite (25 mg) was able to remove 99.6% of 100 mg/L of Cr(VI) at pH 2 and 25 °C. Adsorption isotherms were investigated at different Cr(VI) concentration (100-600 mg/L) and temperature (15-45 °C). It was deduced that adsorption follows the Langmuir model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 555.6 mg/g for Cr(VI) removal. Furthermore, isotherm data were used to calculate thermodynamic values for Gibbs free energy, enthalpy change and entropy change, which indicated that Cr(VI) adsorption was spontaneous and endothermic in nature. Adsorption-desorption experiments revealed that the nanocomposite was usable for two consecutive cycles with no significant loss of adsorption capacity. This research demonstrates the application potential for the fascinating properties of PPy-mPD/Fe3O4 nanocomposite as a highly efficient adsorbent for the removal of heavy metal ions from industrial wastewater.

Hierarchically Ordered α-Zirconium Phosphate Platelets in Aqueous Phase with Empty Liquid.

Project description:Platelets of α-zirconium phosphate (α-ZrP) obtained from the reflux method in H3PO4 are successfully exfoliated into water via the intercalation of alkanol amines. With volume fractions greater than 0.02 they are stacked into tactoids of few layers with a repeat distance in the order of 10 nm. The tactoids align into nematic liquid crystalline phases with irregularly wide interstices of empty liquid. Colloidal processing involves the freeze-drying of such anisotropic fluids and the dispersion of the restacked tacoids into aqueous dispersions of colloidal polymer particles of largely varying size which occupy the otherwise empty liquid between the α-ZrP tactoids and induce piling of the tactoids into columns. Real-time SAXS on drying films and TEM of the obtained coatings demonstrate that the stacked α-ZrP platelets and the polymer particles comprising liquid dry separately without polymer intercalation, while the morphology of the obtained composites can be tuned primarily by the size of the polymer colloids. Concomitant α-ZrP hydrolysis in the exfoliation step is scrutinized as a function of amine basicity and temperature. The role of zirconium based hydrolysis products in the hierarchical α-ZrP assembly is indirectly though consistently confirmed by opposing impacts of ultra-filtration and added oxoanions on the platelets' spacing, smoothness and aggregation. HAADF-TEM imaging of scattered, singular platelets and XRD peak analysis of the pristine solid shed light on the α-ZrP synthesis. Coexisting flakes and lacunae, both similar in size to the intra-layer crystal domains, suggest the stitching of proto-α-ZrP flakes into extended layers in accordance with our observations on the aging behaviour of α-ZrP dispersions as well as with literature data on related systems.

Synthesis and Characterization of Modified BiOCl and Their Application in Adsorption of Low-Concentration Dyes from Aqueous Solution.

Project description:The synthesis and characterization of BiOCl and Fe3+-grafted BiOCl (Fe/BiOCl) is reported that are developed as efficient adsorbents for the removal of cationic dyes rhodamine B (RhB) and methylene blue (MB) as well as anionic dyes methyl orange (MO) and acid orange (AO) from aqueous solutions with low concentration of 0.01~0.04 mmol/L. Characterizations by various techniques indicate that Fe3+ grafting induced more open porous structure and higher specific surface area. Both BiOCl and Fe/BiOCl with negatively charged surfaces showed excellent adsorption efficiency toward cationic dyes, which could sharply reach 99.6 and nearly 100% within 3 min on BiOCl and 97.0 and 98.0% within 10 min on Fe/BiOCl for removing RhB and MB, respectively. However, Fe/BiOCl showed higher adsorption capacity than BiOCl toward ionic dyes. The influence of initial dye concentration, temperature, and pH value on the adsorption capacity is comprehensively studied. The adsorption process of RhB conforms to Langmuir adsorption isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic feature. The excellent adsorption capacities of as-prepared adsorbents toward cationic dyes are rationalized on the basis of electrostatic attraction as well as open porous structure and high specific surface area. In comparison with Fe/BiOCl, BiOCl displays higher selective efficiency toward cationic dyes in mixed dye solutions.

An accurate coarse-grained model for chitosan polysaccharides in aqueous solution.

Project description:Computational models can provide detailed information about molecular conformations and interactions in solution, which is currently inaccessible by other means in many cases. Here we describe an efficient and precise coarse-grained model for long polysaccharides in aqueous solution at different physico-chemical conditions such as pH and ionic strength. The Model is carefully constructed based on all-atom simulations of small saccharides and metadynamics sampling of the dihedral angles in the glycosidic links, which represent the most flexible degrees of freedom of the polysaccharides. The model is validated against experimental data for Chitosan molecules in solution with various degree of deacetylation, and is shown to closely reproduce the available experimental data. For long polymers, subtle differences of the free energy maps of the glycosidic links are found to significantly affect the measurable polymer properties. Therefore, for titratable monomers the free energy maps of the corresponding links are updated according to the current charge of the monomers. We then characterize the microscopic and mesoscopic structural properties of large chitosan polysaccharides in solution for a wide range of solvent pH and ionic strength, and investigate the effect of polymer length and degree and pattern of deacetylation on the polymer properties.

A Review on Adsorption of Fluoride from Aqueous Solution.

Project description:Fluoride is one of the anionic contaminants which is found in excess in surface or groundwater because of geochemical reactions or anthropogenic activities such as the disposal of industrial wastewaters. Among various methods used for defluoridation of water such as coagulation, precipitation, membrane processes, electrolytic treatment, ion-exchange, the adsorption process is widely used. It offers satisfactory results and seems to be a more attractive method for the removal of fluoride in terms of cost, simplicity of design and operation. Various conventional and non-conventional adsorbents have been assessed for the removal of fluoride from water. In this review, a list of various adsorbents (oxides and hydroxides, biosorbents, geomaterials, carbonaceous materials and industrial products and by-products) and its modifications from literature are surveyed and their adsorption capacities under various conditions are compared. The effect of other impurities on fluoride removal has also been discussed. This survey showed that various adsorbents, especially binary and trimetal oxides and hydroxides, have good potential for the fluoride removal from aquatic environments.
