Estudo da adsorção de surfactante catiônico na matriz inorgânica fosfato de nióbio hidratado

This work describes the study the adsorption of a cationic surfactant, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) in the hydrous niobium phosphate matrix. The matrix was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (DRX), thermal analysis (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and surface area measurements (BET). The Langmuir and Freundlich isothermal models were used in the CTAB adsorption study. The adsorption process wasn`t favorable for the NbOPO4.nH2O in both studied models.

Remoção de azul de metileno de solução aquosa usando zeólitas sintetizadas com amostras de cinzas de carvão diferentes

Batch sorption experiments were carried out to remove methylene blue from its aqueous solutions using zeolites synthesized from fly ashes as an adsorbent. The adsorbents were characterized by XFR, XRD and SEM. Nearly 90 min of contact time are found to be sufficient for the adsorption of dye to reach equilibrium. Equilibrium data have been analyzed using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms and the results were found to be well represented by the Freundlich isotherm equation. Adsorption data were fitted to both Lagergren first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models and the data were found to follow pseudo-second-order kinetics.

Adsorção de íons fosfato em óxido de nióbio hidratado

The adsorption kinetics of phosphate on Nb2O5.nH2O was investigated at initial phosphate concentrations 0.25, 0.50 and 1.00 mg.L-1. The kinetic process was described by a pseudo-second-order rate model very well. The adsorption thermodynamics was carried out at 298, 308, 318, 328 and 338 K. The positive values of both ΔH and ΔS suggest an endothermic reaction and increase in randomness at the solid-liquid interface during the adsorption. ΔG values obtained were negative indicating a spontaneous adsorption process. The Langmuir model described the data better than the Freundlich isotherm model. The effective desorption could be achieved using water at pH 12.

Adsorción física sobre sólidos: aspectos termodinámicos

A thermodynamic formalism based on the Gibbs Dividing Surface (GDS) for the description of a solid-fluid interface is presented, so that the adsorption layer is understand as a phase and the adsorption process as the transference of components between a 3-dimensional phase and a 2-dimensional one. Using a state equation derived from the Henry's Law, we shall show how the Langmuir isotherm is deduced from de Gibbs isotherm. The GDS is useful also for understanding the release of heat by a system as the adsorption occurs.

Uso da cinza da casca do arroz (CCA) obtida da geração de energia térmica como adsorvente de Zn(II) em soluções aquosas

The removal study was conducted using 1.00 g of the rice husk ash (RHA) and 20.0 mL solution with concentrations in the range of 10-1000 mg/L of Zn(II). The influence of contact time, initial metal concentration, agitation and pH of the removal process was investigated. Superior removals to 95% were obtained at the end of 24 h of contact. The agitation increased in 20% the removal of Zn(II), being needed only 5 min to reach the equilibrium. The adsorption process was studied by the models of isotherms of Langmuir, Freundlich and BET, obtaining results of R L and 1/n for a process favorable of adsorption. BET isotherm best represents the equilibrium adsorption. The results showed that the RHA has the largest capacity and affinity for the removal of Zn(II).

The quaternary chitosan was synthesized by reaction of chitosan with glycidyl trimethylammonium chloride. it was characterized by infrared spectra and conductometric titration.

Adsorção do corante Reativo Azul 19 em solução aquosa por lama vermelha tratada quimicamente com peróxido de hidrogênio

Adsorption of Reactive Blue 19 dye onto activated red mud was investigated. Red mud was treated with hydrogen peroxide (LVQ) and heated at both 400 ºC (LVQ400) and 500 ºC (LVQ500). These samples were characterized by pH, specific surface area, point of zero charge and mineralogical composition. Adsorption was found to be significantly dependent on solution pH, with acidic conditions proving to be the most favorable. The adsorption followed pseudo-second-order kinetics.

Removal of Pb(II) ions and malachite green dye from wastewater by activated carbon produced from lemon peel

In the present study, a high-surface area activated carbon was prepared by chemical activation of lemon peel with H3PO4 as the active agent. Then, the adsorption behavior of Malachite green dye and Pb(II) ions on the produced activated carbon was studied. Batch process was employed for sorption kinetics and equilibrium studies.

Kinetic studies showed the adsorption process followed a pseudo second-order rate model. The sorption kinetics were controlled by intra-particle diffusion. The results indicated that the produced activated carbon can be economically and effectively used as an adsorbent for the removal of Malachite green dye and Pb(II) ions from wastewaters.

Methylene blue adsorption onto modified lignin from sugar cane bagasse

The adsorption kinetics and equilibrium of methylene blue (MB) onto reticulated formic lignin (RFL) from sugar cane bagasse was studied. The adsorption process is pH, temperature and ionic strength (µ) dependent and obeys the Langmuir model. Conditions for higher adsorption rate and capacity were determined. The faster adsorption (12 hours) and higher adsorption capacity (34.20 mg.g-1) were observed at pH = 5.8 (acetic acid-sodium acetate aqueous buffer), 50 ºC and 0.1 ionic strength. Under temperature (50 ºC) control and occasional mechanical stirring it took from 1 to 10 days to reach the equilibrium.

Ammoniumin, fosfaatin ja nitraatin poisto adsorption avulla

Kiinnostus ravinneionien ammoniumin, fosfaatin ja nitraatin poistoon liittyy niiden ne-gatiivisiin ympäristövaikutuksiin ja niiden poistoon jätevesistä on olemassa erilaisia tekniikoita. Tässä työssä ionien poistoa tutkittiin adsorptiotekniikan avulla. Siinä perus-ajatuksena on ionin kiinnittyminen adsorbentin pintaan, jolloin sen poistaminen käsitel-tävästä vedestä on mahdollista. Tässä diplomityössä tutkittiin eri adsorbentteja ammoniumin, fosfaatin ja nitraatin poistoon, ja päämääränä oli niiden yhtäaikainen poistaminen. Kokeita tehtiin niin laboratoriossa valmistetuille ravinneliuoksille kuin Yara Suomi Oy:n Siilinjärven (Yara) toimipaikalta toimitetuille vesille. Yaran vesien osalta pääpaino oli ammoniumin poistossa. Tutkimuksen haasteina olivat ionien erilaiset varaukset, jolloin esimerkiksi positiivisesti varautunut ammoniumioni kiinnittyi negatiivisesti varautuneen adsorbentin pintaan hel-poiten. Toisaalta negatiivisesti varautuneet anionit fosfaatti ja nitraatti suosivat positiivi-sesti varautuneita adsorbentteja. Myös muiden ionin läsnäolo joko edisti tai esti adsorboitumista ja joissain tapauksissa pH:lla oli suuri merkitys prosessin onnistumiseen. Saatuja tuloksia tarkasteltiin tutkittujen ionien poistoprosenttien ja isotermimallinnuksien kautta unohtamatta muita esille tulleita seikkoja. Saatujen tulosten mukaan etenkin kalsinoitu hydrotalsiitti poisti fosfaattia ja nitraattia, mutta se ei mainittavasti toiminut ammoniumille. Ammoniumille sen sijaan toimi par-haiten zeoliitit ja bentoniitti, jotka vähensivät myös Yaran vesien ammoniumpitoisuutta. Ionien yhtäaikainen poistaminen oli haastavaa ja sen parempi ymmärtäminen edellyttää jatkotutkimuksia. Yksi jatkotutkimuskohde voisi olla eri adsorbenttien yhdistäminen keskenään, ja tästä saatiin jo alustavia, rohkaisevia tuloksia.

Adsorption capacity of phenolic compounds onto cellulose and xylan

The interaction between three phenolic compounds (catechin, caffeic acid and ferulic acid) onto two dietary fibres (cellulose and xylan) has been evaluated to inquire possible interferences on the biodisponibility of phenolic compounds. The adsorption kinetics were performed using solutions containing 100 mg/L of phenolic compounds during a contact time ranging between 10 and 120 minutes at pH 2.0, 4.5, and 7.0. After the kinetics, isotherms were obtained using phenolic compounds concentration ranging between 10 and 80 mg/L during 60 minutes, at pH 2.0 and 7.0 and temperature of 36 °C. Results indicate that adsorbed quantities mainly changed in function of pH, however the maximum adsorption was only of 0.978 mg of caffeic acid/g of xylan at pH 2 and after 60 min. Redlich-Peterson model were able to predict the adsorption isotherms of all phenolic compounds onto cellulose, except for caffeic acid at pH 7.0. The low adsorption capacities observed suggest that both dietary fibres are unable to compromise the biodisponibility of phenolic compounds, especially in the small intestine, where they are partially absorbed.
