Removal of chromium(VI) from water and wastewater using surfactant modified coconut coir pith as a biosorbent 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4
Coconut coir pith, an agricultural solid waste was used as biosorbent for the removal of chromium(VI) after modification with a cationic surfactant, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide. Optimum pH for Cr(VI) adsorption was found to be 2.0. Reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III) occurred to a slight extent during the removal. Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin Radushkevich (D-R) isotherms were used to model the adsorption equilibrium data and the system followed all the three isotherms. The adsorption capacity of the biosorbent was found to be 76.3 mg g(-1), which is higher or comparable to the adsorption capacity of various adsorbents reported in literature. Kinetic studies showed that the adsorption obeyed second order and Elovich model. Thermodynamic parameters such as delta G0, delta H0 and delta S0 were evaluated, indicating that the overall adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous. Effects of foreign anions were also examined. The adsorbent was also tested for the removal of Cr(VI) from electroplating effluent. 相似文献

The biosorption characteristics of Pb(II) and Cr(III) ions from aqueous solution using the lichen (Parmelina tiliaceae) biomass were investigated. Optimum biosorption conditions were determined as a function of pH, biomass dosage, contact time, and temperature. Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) models were applied to describe the biosorption isotherm of the metal ions by P. tiliaceae biomass. Langmuir model fitted the equilibrium data better than the Freundlich isotherm. The monolayer biosorption capacity of P. tiliaceae biomass for Pb(II) and Cr(III) ions was found to be 75.8 mg/g and 52.1mg/g, respectively. From the D-R isotherm model, the mean free energy was calculated as 12.7 kJ/mol for Pb(II) biosorption and 10.5 kJ/mol for Cr(III) biosorption, indicating that the biosorption of both metal ions was taken place by chemical ion-exchange. The calculated thermodynamic parameters (delta G degrees , delta H degrees and delta S degrees ) showed that the biosorption of Pb(II) and Cr(III) ions onto P. tiliaceae biomass was feasible, spontaneous and exothermic under examined conditions. Experimental data were also tested in terms of biosorption kinetics using pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The results showed that the biosorption processes of both metal ions followed well pseudo-second-order kinetics. 相似文献

AbstractThe present study explores the sorption properties of shelled Moringa oleifera seeds (SMOS) for removal of two environmentally important oxidation states of chromium (trivalent and hexavalent) from an aqueous system on the laboratory scale. Sorption studies reveal the optimum conditions for the removal of 81.02%; Cr (III) and 88.15% Cr (VI) as follows: biomass dosage (4.0 g), metal concentration [25mg/L for Cr (III); 50mg/L for Cr (VI)], contact time (40 minutes) at pH 6.5 and 2.5 respectively. The adsorption data were found to fit well both the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms. Characterization of the seed powder by FTIR showed the clear presence of amino acid moieties having both positively charged amino and negatively charged carboxylic groups and confirmed that biosorption involves amino acid-chromium interactions. SEM studies of native and exhausted [Cr(III) and Cr(VI)] treated SMOS revealed large spherical clusters having a pore area of 8.66 µm2 in the case of native SMOS while dense agglomerated etched dendrite type morphology have a pore area of 0.80 µm2 in Cr (III) and 0.78 µm2 in Cr (VI) treated SMOS The spent biosorbent was regenerated and found to be effectively reusable for four cycles. 相似文献

Batch mode experiments were conducted to study the removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous and industrial effluent using distillery sludge. Effects of pH, contact time, initial concentration and adsorbent dosage on the adsorption of Cr(VI) were studied. The data obeyed Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The Langmuir adsorption capacity was found to be 5.7 mg/g. Freundlich constants K(f) and n were 2.05 [mg/g(L/mg)(n)] and 3.9, respectively. Desorption studies indicated the removal of 82% of the hexavalent chromium. The efficiency of adsorbent towards the removal of chromium was also tested using chromium-plating wastewater. 相似文献

Removal and recovery of molybdate from aqueous solution was investigated using ZnCl2 activated carbon developed from coir pith. Studies were conducted to delineate the effects of contact time, adsorbent dose, molybdate concentration, pH and temperature. Two theoretical adsorption isotherms, namely, Langmuir and Freundlich were used to describe the experimental results. The Langmuir adsorption capacity (Q0) was found to be 18.9 mg molybdate/g of the adsorbent. Adsorption followed second order kinetics. Studies were performed at different pH values to find out the pH at which maximum adsorption occurred. The pH effect and desorption studies showed that ion exchange and chemisorption mechanism were involved in the adsorption process. Thermodynamic parameters such as DeltaG0, DeltaH0 and DeltaS0 for the adsorption were evaluated. Effect of foreign ions on adsorption of molybdate has been examined. The results showed that ZnCl2 activated coir pith carbon was effective for the removal and recovery of molybdate from water. 相似文献

Cr(VI) and Al(III) are environmental pollutants that are frequently encountered together in industrial wastewaters, e.g., from mining iron-steel, metal cleaning, plating, metal processing, automobile parts, and the manufacturing and dye industries. In this work, several variables that affect the capacity for chromium and aluminum biosorption by Chryseomonas luteola TEM05 were studied, particularly the effects of pH, metal concentration and contact time. Optimum adsorption pH values of Cr(VI) and Al(III) were determined as 4.0 and 5.0, respectively. The biosorption equilibrium was described by Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms. The value of Q
o appears to be significantly higher for the Al(III) C. luteola TEM05 system. Langmuir parameters of C. luteola TEM05 also indicated a maximum adsorption capacity of 55.2 mg g–1 for Al(III) and 3.0 mg g–1 for Cr(VI). 相似文献

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions by adsorption onto hazelnut shell activated carbon: kinetic and equilibrium studies 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Kobya M 《Bioresource technology》2004,91(3):317-321
The adsorption Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions onto hazelnut shell activated carbon was carried out by varying the parameters such as pH, initial Cr(VI) concentration and temperature. The experimental data fitted well to the pseudo first-order kinetic model and then the rate constants were evaluated. The Langmuir isotherm provided the best correlation for Cr(VI) onto the activated carbon. Adsorption capacity was calculated from the Langmuir isotherm as 170 mg/g at an initial pH of 1.0 for the 1000 mg/l Cr(VI) solution. Thermodynamic parameters were evaluated and the adsorption is endothermic showing monolayer adsorption of Cr(VI). 相似文献

The adsorption of iron(III), lead(II) and cadmium(II) ions onto Schizomeris leibleinii, a green alga, was studied with respect to initial pH, temperature, initial metal ion and biomass concentration to determine the optimum adsorption conditions. Optimum initial pH for iron(III), lead(II) and cadmium(II) ions were 2.5, 4.5 and 5.0 at optimum temperature 30°C, respectively. The initial adsorption rates increased with increasing initial iron(III), lead(II) and cadmium(II) ion concentrations up to 100, 100 and 150 mg l−1, respectively. The Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms were developed at various initial pH and temperature values. The adsorption of these metal ions to S. leibleinii was investigated in a two-stage mixed batch reactor. The residual metal ion concentrations (Ceq) at equilibrium at each stage for a given ‘quantity of dried algae (X0)/volume of solution containing heavy metal ion (V0)’ ratio were calculated using Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm constants. The experimental biosorption equilibrium data for iron(III), lead(II) and cadmium(II) ions were in good agreement with those calculated by both Freundlich and Langmuir models. The adsorbed iron(III), lead(II) and cadmium(II) ion concentrations increased with increasing X0/V0 ratios while the adsorbed metal quantities per unit mass of dried algae decreased. 相似文献

Chromium toxicity is of prime concern due to chrome tanning processes in the leather sector. Chrome tanning results in the discharge of toxic levels of chromium causing pollution hazards. Chromium levels of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) were high above permissible limits in chrome samples after chrome tanning. The potential of Aspergillus niger MTCC 2594 to accumulate chromium as well as its biosorption capacity is investigated in this study. Bioaccumulation of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in the spent chrome liquor has resulted in a 75-78% reduction of the initial Cr content in 24-36 h. A. niger biomass is found to be very effective in the biosorption of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) in spent chrome liquor. Maximum adsorption of 83% for biosorption of Cr(III) at 48 h and 79% of Cr(VI) at 36 h in spent chrome liquor is observed. The biosorption characteristics fit well with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms and the adsorption parameters are evaluated. The biosorption of Cr also follows Lagergren kinetics. A. niger biomass is effectively used for the biosorption of chromium with 79-83% Cr removal in 36-48 h. 相似文献

A biomass derived from the plant Momordica charantia has been found to be very efficient in arsenic(III) adsorption. An attempt was made to use this biomass for arsenic(III) removal under different conditions. The parameters optimized were contact time (5-150 min), pH (2-11), concentration of adsorbent (1-50 g/l), concentration of adsorbate (0.1-100mg/l), etc. It was observed that the pH had a strong effect on biosorption capacity. The optimum pH obtained for arsenic adsorption was 9. The influence of common ions such as Ca(2+), Mg(2+), Cd(2+), Se(4+), Cl(-), SO(4)(2-), and HCO(3)(-), at concentrations varying from 5 to 1000 mg/l was investigated. To establish the most appropriate correlation for the equilibrium curves, isotherm studies were performed for As(III) ion using Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms. The pattern of adsorption fitted well with both models. The biomass of M. charantia was found to be effective for the removal of As(III) with 88% sorption efficiency at a concentration of 0.5mg/l of As(III) solution, and thus uptake capacity is 0.88 mg As(III)/gm of biomass. It appears that this biomass should be used as a palliative food item. Further it also appears that the dietary habits may play a role in the toxic effects of ingested arsenic. 相似文献

Thermodynamic, kinetic and equilibrium studies during the biosorption of Basic blue 41(BB 41) from aqueous solution using Bacillus macerans were carried out with a focus on pH, contact time, temperature, biomass dosage and initial dye concentration. The maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 89.2 mg/g under optimal conditions of pH (10.0) and temperature (25 °C). The biosorption rates obtained were consistent with the pseudo‐second order kinetic models. The equilibrium data were analyzed using linearized forms of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, and the Langmuir isotherm was found to provide the best correlation of the experimental data for the biosorption of BB 41. The equilibrium time for the removal of BB 41 by the biomass was attained within 90 min. Thermodynamic parameters such as free energy (<$>\Delta G<$>), enthalpy (<$>\Delta H<$>), and entropy (<$>\Delta S<$>) were also calculated. The results indicate that biosorption is spontaneous and exothermic in nature. The negative value of entropy confirms the decreased randomness at the solid‐liquid interface during the adsorption of BB 41 onto Bacillus macerans. 相似文献

The test fungus Trichoderma harzianum was isolated from the Western Ghats area of Tamilnadu, India. The study involves the feasibility of using T.harzianum to remove erioglaucine from an aqueous solution in batch mode. The batch mode experimental parameters such as effect of agitation
time and initial dye concentration, adsorbent mass and pH were determined. The results revealed that, the fungal biomass at
1.5 g/50 ml adsorbent mass removed 75.67–88.05% of dye (10–50 mg/l) in 105 min at pH 4.0. The adsorption equilibrium data
followed both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. From the Langmuir isotherm, the adsorbent had adsorption capacity (Q
0
) of 3.09 mg/g. Pseudo first and second order rate kinetic equations were applied to the experimental adsorption data. The
results indicate that the adsorbent system followed second order rate kinetics. 相似文献

Many studies have been carried out on the biosorption capacity of different kinds of biomass. However, reports on the kinetic
and equilibrium study of the biosorption process are limited. In our experiments, the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution
was investigated in a batch system by sorption on the dead cells of Bacillus licheniformis isolated from metal-polluted soils. Equilibrium and kinetic experiments were performed at various initial metal concentrations,
pH, contact time, and temperatures. The biomass exhibited the highest Cr(VI) uptake capacity at 50°C, pH 2.5 and with the
initial Cr(VI) concentration of 300 mg/g. The Langmuir and Freundlich models were considered to identify the isotherm that
could better describe the equilibrium adsorption of Cr(VI) onto biomass. The Langmuir model fitted our experimental data better
than the Freundlich model. The suitability of the pseudo first-order and pseudo second-order kinetic models for the sorption
of Cr(VI) onto Bacillus licheniformis was also discussed. It is better to apply the pseudo second-kinetic model to describe the sorption system. 相似文献

Equilibrium sorption isotherm for metal ions on tree fern 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A new sorbent system for removing heavy metal ions, such as Zn(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II), from aqueous solutions has been investigated. This new sorbent is tree fern, an agriculture product. Variables of the system include solution temperature and sorbent particle size. The experimental results were fitted to the Langmuir, Freundlich and Redlich–Peterson isotherms to obtain the characteristic parameters of each model. Both the Langmuir and Redlich–Peterson isotherms were found to well represent the measured sorption data. According to the evaluation using the Langmuir equation, the maximum sorption capacities of metal ions onto tree fern were 7.58 mg/g for Zn(II), 10.6 mg/g for Cu(II) and 39.8 mg/g for Pb(II). It was noted that an increase in temperature resulted in a higher metal loading per unit weight of the sorbent. Decreasing the particle sizes of tree fern led in an increase in the metal uptake per unit weight of the sorbent. 相似文献

The study was aimed to quantify the Cr sorption ability of powdered biomass of Rhizopus nigricans at the best operating conditions. The influence of solution pH, agitation, Cr (VI) concentration, biomass dosage, contact time, biomass particle size and temperature were studied. The optimum pH for biosorption of Cr (VI) was found to be 2.0. Higher adsorption percentage was noted at lower initial concentrations of Cr ions, while the adsorption capacity of the biomass increased with increasing concentration of ions. Optimum biomass dosage was observed as 0.5% (w/v). More than 75% of the ions were removed within 30 min of contact and maximum removal was obtained after 8 h. Biomass particles of smaller size (90 microm) gave maximum adsorption (99.2%) at 100 mg/l concentration. The adsorption capacity increased with increase in temperature and agitation speed and the optimum were determined as 45 degrees C at 120 rpm. Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms were used to evaluate the data and the regression constants were derived. The adsorption rate constant values (Kad) were calculated for different initial concentration of Cr ions and the sorption was found to be higher at lower concentration (100 mg/l) of metal ion. 相似文献

In this batch study, the adsorption of malathion by using granular activated carbon with different parameters due to the particle size, dosage of carbons, as well as the initial concentration of malathion was investigated. Batch tests were carried out to determine the potential and the effectiveness of granular activated carbon (GAC) in removal of pesticide in agricultural run off. The granular activated carbon; coconut shell and palm shells were used and analyzed as the adsorbent material. The Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms models were applied to describe the characteristics of adsorption behavior. Equilibrium data fitted well with the Langmuir model and Freundlich model with maximum adsorption capacity of 909.1 mg/g. The results indicate that the GAC could be used to effectively adsorb pesticide (malathion) from agricultural runoff. 相似文献

The sorption of highly toxic Cr(VI) ions by cassava waste biomass was quantitatively investigated. The sorption was found to be influenced by several physico-chemical factors such as agitation speed, temperature, contact time, pH, and sorbent/sorbate ratio. The adsorption data at equilibrium were fitted to Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms. The monolayer sorption capacity was found to be 61.79 mg of Cr(VI) per gram of biomass. The kinetics of Cr(VI) adsorption to pure cassava-tuber-bark wastes were determined based on a pseudo-second-order-rate model using the batch-sorption technique at a temperature of 30 degrees. The kinetics data suggest that the adsorption process is exothermic, and that the rate-limiting step is physisorption. Negative DeltaG(ads) values indicate that the adsorption is spontaneous and exothermic in nature. Also, under optimal conditions (in agitated 1M H(2)SO(4) at 30 degrees), the cassava waste biomass appears to be recyclable. 相似文献

Biosorption of lead and copper from aqueous solutions by pre-treated crab and arca shell biomass 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sorption potential of pretreated crab and arca shell biomass for lead and copper from aqueous media was explored. The effects of pH, initial concentration, biosorbent dosage and contact time were studied in batch experiments. Effects of common ions like sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium on the sorption capacity of pretreated crab and arca biomasses were also studied. At equilibrium, the maximum uptake by crab shell biomass was 19.83+/-0.29 and 38.62+/-1.27 mg/g for lead and copper, respectively. In case of arca shell biomass the maximum uptake capacity was 18.33+/-0.44 mg/g and 17.64+/-0.31 mg/g for lead and copper, respectively. Combined effect of all the common ions up to 50 microg/ml concentration was negligible for both the metals using both biomasses. Sorption isotherms were studied to explain the removal mechanism of both elements by fitting isotherms data into Lagergren, Freundlich and Langmuir equations. 相似文献

Polymeric composites made up of nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HAp) with chitin and chitosan have been prepared and studied for the removal of Cu(II) ions from the aqueous solution. The sorption capacity (SC) of n-HAp, n-HAp/chitin (n-HApC) composite and n-HAp/chitosan (n-HApCs) composite were found to be 4.7, 5.4 and 6.2 mg/g respectively with a minimum contact time of 30 min. Batch adsorption studies were conducted to optimize various equilibrating conditions like contact time, pH and selectivity of metal ion. The sorbents were characterized by FTIR, TEM, XRD and SEM with EDAX analysis. The sorption process was explained with Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms respectively. Thermodynamic parameters such as ΔG°, ΔH° and ΔS° were calculated to understand the nature of sorption. A suitable mechanism for copper sorption was established and the selectivity of the metal ions for the composites was identified. 相似文献
