A new approach to modification of natural adsorbent for heavy metal adsorption

This paper describes modification of a natural adsorbent with Fenton reagent and determines the removal of Cd(II) ions from aqueous solution. Changes of the surface properties of adsorbent materials were determined by the FT-IR analysis after the modification of pine bark. The effect of Fe2+/H2O2 ratio, ORP, pH, and contact time were determined. Different adsorption isotherms were also obtained using concentrations of Cd(II) ions ranging from 0.1 to 100 mg L(-1). The adsorption process follows pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics and follows the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The paper discusses thermodynamic parameters, including changes in Gibbs free energy, entropy, and enthalpy, for the adsorption of Cd(II) on modified bark, and revealed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic under natural conditions. The maximum removal efficiency obtained was 97% at pH 7 and with a 90-min contact time (for 35 mg L(-1) initial concentration and a 2.5 g L(-1) solid-to-liquid ratio).     

A sustainable process for adsorptive removal of methylene blue onto a food grade mucilage: kinetics,thermodynamics, and equilibrium evaluation

Abstract

Adsorption of dyes onto natural materials like polysaccharides is considered a green chemistry approach for remediation of wastewater. In this work, the polysaccharide isolated from the corm of Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott or taro tuber (CEM) was utilized for removing methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution by batch adsorption method. The CEM adsorbent was characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The solution pH and adsorbent dose have been found to have a significant positive correlation with the adsorptive removal efficiency of CEM for MB dye. The removal efficiency of CEM was found to be 72.35% under the optimum conditions; 20?mg/L initial concentration of dye, 120?mg of adsorbent dose, solution pH 8.5, 311.2?K temperature and 80?min contact time. The adsorption of MB onto CEM followed best the Freundlich isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics. The adsorption was thermodynamically favorable and was endothermic in nature. The desorption/adsorption data justifiably indicated the reuse capability of CEM adsorbent for MB adsorption. Hence, CEM may be regarded as an eco-friendly and cost-effective natural adsorbent for MB dye removal from aqueous solution.     

Rapid Adsorption of Copper(II) and Lead(II) by Rice Straw/Fe3O4 Nanocomposite: Optimization,Equilibrium Isotherms,and Adsorption Kinetics Study

Rice straw/magnetic nanocomposites (RS/Fe₃O₄-NCs) were prepared via co-precipitation method for removal of Pb(II) and Cu(II) from aqueous solutions. Response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to find the optimum conditions for removal of ions. The effects of three independent variables including initial ion concentration, removal time, and adsorbent dosage were investigated on the maximum adsorption of Pb (II) and Cu (II). The optimum conditions for the adsorption of Pb(II) and Cu(II) were obtained (100 and 60 mg/L) of initial ion concentration, (41.96 and 59.35 s) of removal time and 0.13 g of adsorbent for both ions, respectively. The maximum removal efficiencies of Pb(II) and Cu(II) were obtained 96.25% and 75.54%, respectively. In the equilibrium isotherm study, the adsorption data fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption kinetics was best depicted by the pseudo-second order model. Desorption experiments showed adsorbent can be reused successfully for three adsorption-desorption cycles.     

Copper removal from wastewater using spent-grain as biosorbent

The removal of Cu(II) ions from aqueous solutions using spent-grain was studied. The experimental data fitted the Langmuir isotherm and the maximum adsorption capacity of spent-grain was determined to be 10.47 mg g(-1) dry weight (pH 4.2). Kinetic studies showed the adsorption process followed pseudo second-order rate model. Column studies with synthetic Cu(II) solutions were used to investigate the effects of Cu(II) ion concentration, initial pH, flow rate and the presence of EDTA on the Cu(II) removal performance. When treating the spent-lees, the wastewater from the whisky distilling industry, the reduction of Cu(II) uptake capacity to 77.7% (solution pH adjusted to 4.5 with 1N NaOH) and 31.6% (pH 3.8 without adjustment) was observed compared to Cu(II) uptake capacity when treating synthetic Cu(II) solution. On the basis of the results and that spent-grain is an abundant and by-product from the whisky distilling industry we suggest that it can be economically and effectively applied as a biosorbent for the removal of Cu(II) ions from distilling wastewaters.     

Adsorptive removal of copper and nickel ions from water using chitosan coated PVC beads

A new biosorbent was developed by coating chitosan, a naturally and abundantly available biopolymer, on to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) beads. The biosorbent was characterized by FTIR spectra, porosity and surface area analyses. Equilibrium and column flow adsorption characteristics of copper(II) and nickel(II) ions on the biosorbent were studied. The effect of pH, agitation time, concentration of adsorbate and amount of adsorbent on the extent of adsorption was investigated. The experimental data were fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The data were analyzed on the basis of Lagergren pseudo first order, pseudo-second order and Weber-Morris intraparticle diffusion models. The maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of chitosan coated PVC sorbent as obtained from Langmuir adsorption isotherm was found to be 87.9 mg g(-1) for Cu(II) and 120.5 mg g(-1) for Ni(II) ions, respectively. In addition, breakthrough curves were obtained from column flow experiments. The experimental results demonstrated that chitosan coated PVC beads could be used for the removal of Cu(II) and Ni(II) ions from aqueous medium through adsorption.     

Adsorption of methylene blue dye from aqueous solution by sugar extracted spent rice biomass

This study was aimed at using sugar extracted spent rice biomass (SRB) as a potential adsorbent to remove methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solution. The SRB was used without any modification. A three factor full factorial experimental design (2(3)) was employed to investigate the effect of factors (adsorbent dose, dye concentration, temperature) and their interaction on the adsorption capacity and color removal. Two levels for each factor were used; adsorbent dose (0.25-0.5g/100mL), dye concentration (25-50mg/L), and temperature (25-45°C). Initial dye concentration and adsorbent dosage were found as significant factors for the adsorption of MB dye. Langmuir isotherm (R(2)>0.998) best explained the equilibrium of MB adsorption on SRB with monolayer adsorption capacity of 8.13mg/g. The pseudo-second order model (R(2)>0.999) was best fitted to explain the adsorption kinetics. Thermodynamic investigation revealed that the adsorption process was spontaneous, endothermic, and was feasible to treat dyeing wastewater.     

Assessment of Cu (II)-Bearing Montmorillonite on Cd Adsorption

The abilities of montmorillonite (MMT) and Cu (II)-bearing montmorillonite (Cu-MMT) for adsorption of Cd from aqueous solutions have been studied at different optimized conditions of shaking time, pH value, and initial concentration, respectively. The results showed that the adsorbability of Cu-MMT onto Cd is stronger than the MMT. The amount of Cu-MMT necessary to remove Cd from solution was about 0.5 g for 100–200 mg/L Cd solution at a pH of 4.0. The maximum adsorption (94%) was 20 min of shaking time using Cu-MMT as adsorbent. The maximum adsorption of Cd = 95% at a pH of 4.0. By increasing the initial concentration, the adsorption amount of Cd onto Cu-MMT increased. Animal experiment of this study indicated that the addition of Cu-MMT to the Cd-contaminated diet of pigs reduced significantly the Cd levels in tissues (p < 0.05) and increased contents in feces (p < 0.01), improving the safety of animal products. Thus, the overall results established the use of Cu-MMT as a heavy metal adsorbent in animal’s diets, implying a potential protective role against heavy metal toxicities.     

Competitive adsorption of Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions by chitosan crosslinked with epichlorohydrin-triphosphate

In this study, chitosan (CTS) was crosslinked with both epichlorohydrin (ECH) and triphosphate (TPP), by covalent and ionic crosslinking reactions, respectively. The resulting adsorbent (CTS-ECH-TPP) was characterized by SEM, CHN, EDS, FT-IR and TGA analyses, and tested for metal adsorption. The adsorbent was used in batch experiments to evaluate the adsorption of Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions in single and binary metal solutions. In single metal solutions the maximum adsorption capacities for Cu(II) and Cd(II) ions, obtained by Langmuir model, were 130.72 and 83.75 mg g?1, respectively. Adsorption isotherms for binary solutions showed that the presence of Cu(II) decreased Cd(II) adsorption due to a significant competition effect, that is, the adsorbent was selective towards Cu(II) rather than Cd(II).     

Adsorption and Desorption of Nickel(II) Ions from Aqueous Solution by a Lignocellulose/Montmorillonite Nanocomposite

A new and inexpensive lignocellulose/montmorillonite (LNC/MMT) nanocomposite was prepared by a chemical intercalation of LNC into MMT and was subsequently investigated as an adsorbent in batch systems for the adsorption-desorption of Ni(II) ions in an aqueous solution. The optimum conditions for the Ni(II) ion adsorption capacity of the LNC/MMT nanocomposite were studied in detail by varying parameters such as the initial Ni(II) concentration, the solution pH value, the adsorption temperature and time. The results indicated that the maximum adsorption capacity of Ni(II) reached 94.86 mg/g at an initial Ni(II) concentration of 0.0032 mol/L, a solution pH of 6.8, an adsorption temperature of 70°C, and adsorption time of 40 min. The represented adsorption kinetics model exhibited good agreement between the experimental data and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The Langmuir isotherm equation best fit the experimental data. The structure of the LNC/MMT nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), whereas the adsorption mechanism was discussed in combination with the results obtained from scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy analyses (FTIR). The desorption capacity of the LNC/MMT nanocomposite depended on parameters such as HNO₃ concentration, desorption temperature, and desorption time. The satisfactory desorption capacity of 81.34 mg/g was obtained at a HNO₃ concentration, desorption temperature, and desorption time of 0.2 mol/L, 60 ºC, and 30 min, respectively. The regeneration studies showed that the adsorption capacity of the LNC/MMT nanocomposite was consistent for five cycles without any appreciable loss in the batch process and confirmed that the LNC/MMT nanocomposite was reusable. The overall study revealed that the LNC/MMT nanocomposite functioned as an effective adsorbent in the detoxification of Ni(II)-contaminated wastewater.
