Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Humic acid Polymer/clay composite Heavy metal ion Adsorption Wastewater Regeneration Index. décimale : 660 Résumé : This study explored the feasibility of utilizing a novel adsorbent, humic acid-immobilized-amine-modified polyacrylamide/bentonite composite (HA-Am-PAA-B) for the adsorption of Cu(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) ions from aqueous solutions. The FTIR and XRD analyses were done to characterize the adsorbent material. The effects of pH, contact time, initial adsorbate concentration, ionic strength and adsorbent dose on adsorption of metal ions were investigated using batch adsorption experiments. The optimum pH for Cu(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) adsorption was observed at 5.0, 9.0 and 8.0, respectively. The mechanism for the removal of metal ions by HA-Am-PAA-B was based on ion exchange and complexation reactions. Metal removal by HA-Am-PAA-B followed a pseudo-second-order kinetics and equilibrium was achieved within 120 min. The suitability of Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich adsorption models to the equilibrium data was investigated. The adsorption was well described by the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity was 106.2, 96.1 and 52.9 mg g−1 for Cu(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) ions, respectively, at 30 °C. The efficiency of HA-Am-PAA-B in removing metal ions from different industry wastewaters was tested. Adsorbed metal ions were desorbed effectively (97.7 for Cu(II), 98.5 for Zn(II) and 99.2% for Co(II)) by 0.1 M HCl. The reusability of the HA-Am-PAA-B for several cycles was also demonstrated.

S. Anirudhan, Auteur ; Padmajan S. Suchithra, Auteur ; P. Senan, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : pp. 4825–4836 Note générale : Chimie industrielle Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Kinetic Aqueous solutions Résumé : The removal and recovery of thorium(IV) [Th(IV)] ions from aqueous solutions were investigated using poly(methacrylic acid)-grafted-cellulose/bentonite (PMAA-g-Cell/Bent) superabsorbent composite through batch adsorption experiments. Surface characterizations of the adsorbent were investigated. The adsorbent showed significant Th(IV) removal (>99.7%) at pH 5.0. The influence of coexisting ions on the adsorption of Th(IV) was studied. Mass transfer aspects of Th(IV) adsorption onto PMAA-g-Cell/Bent were evaluated. The Sips adsorption isotherm described the adsorption data very well, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 188.1 mg/g. Thermodynamic parameters such as standard enthalpy (ΔH°), standard entropy (ΔS°), standard free energy (ΔG°), activation energy (Ea), isosteric enthalpy (ΔHx), and entropy (ΔSx) were calculated. Tests with a seawater sample revealed the effectiveness of PMAA-g-Cell/Bent for adsorptive removal of Th(IV) from aqueous solutions. Desorption experiments showed that 0.1 M HNO3 can effectively desorb adsorbed thorium ions with a contact time of 3 h. A single stage batch reactor is designed for commercial applicability of the adsorbent. ISSN : 0888-5885 En ligne : http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ie202538q

Anirudhan, Auteur ; Padmajan S. Suchithra, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : pp. 12254–12262 Note générale : Chimie industrielle Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Iron Poly Industry effluents Résumé : In this study, the development and characterization of a novel adsorbent, iron(III)-coordinated amine-modified poly(glycidylmethacrylate)-grafted densified cellulose (AM-Fe-PGDC), for the removal and recovery of fluoride ions from aqueous solutions is reported. The adsorbent was characterized by FTIR, X-ray diffraction, SEM, TG/DTG, surface area analyzer, and potentiometric titration. The effect of process parameters such as agitation time, concentration, pH, ionic strength, adsorbent dose, and temperature on the extent of fluoride adsorption was investigated. The adsorbent exhibits very high adsorption potential (>99.9%) at an optimum equilibrium pH 7.0. The nonlinear form of a pseudo second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model adequately described the experimental kinetic and equilibrium data. The thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of fluoride onto AM-Fe-PGDC was feasible, spontaneous, and exothermic. Adsorption experiments were also conducted using a commercial anion exchanger, Duolite-A7, for comparison. Utility of the adsorbent was tested with a simulated industry wastewater sample. Adsorbed fluoride ions were desorbed effectively by 0.1 M HCl. DEWEY : 660 ISSN : 0888-5885 En ligne : http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ie100809f
