The effects of different formulas, different initial copper concentrations and different pH values of samples on the copper removal efficiency were investigated to determine the optimal conditions for copper removal. The content of copper in the wastewater is determined by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The microstructure and elemental composition of the samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and EDS. As a result, the formula with the content of cement to be 8 wt% and the oyster shell powder of 92 wt% is optimal. Under the condition of 30 ℃, when the pH value was 9.0, the Cu2+ adsorption capacity of the sample could reach 0.59 mg/g at 48 h. SEM analysis revealed that there are abundant pores in the sample, which is beneficial for Cu2+ absorption on the adsorbent.展开更多

Nowadays, biosorption is one of the main parts of environmental technology which could adsorb heavy metals. This paper describes the adsorption of Copper(II) ions from aqueous solution using a mixture of corn stalk and tomato waste which were oxidized with nitric acid. Kinetic and isotherm studies were carried out by studying the effects of parameters such as concentration dosage, time and pH. It was found that the maximum sorption capacity of the mixture of modified corn stalk and modified tomato waste (q<sub>m</sub> = 25 mg/g) was higher than the modified corn stalk (q<sub>m</sub> = 20.8 mg/g). Analysis indicated that pseudo-second-order kinetics controlled the adsorption rate and it has been proposed to correlate the experimental data well.展开更多

A quadratic model was suggested by RSM to correlate the key parameters, namely, dos-age of chlorinating agent, roasting temperature and roasting time to the copper volatilization ratio. The results indi- cate that the model is well consistent with the experimental data at a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.95, and the dosage of chlorinating agent and roasting temperature both have significant effects on the copper volatilization ratio. However, a roasting temperature exceeding 1170 ~C decreases the volatilization ratio. The optimum conditions for removing copper from the cinder were identified as chlorinating agent dosage at 5%, roasting temperature at i155.10 ℃ and roasting time of 10 min; under Such a conditiom a copper volatilization ratid of 95.16% Was a- chieved from the cinder. Thermodynamic calculation shows that SiO2 in the pellet plays a key role in the chlorine re-lease from calcium chloride, and the chlorine release reactions cannot occur without it.展开更多

The process was divided into 3 periods according to different influent conditions, and the period Ⅲ was separated into Ⅲ-a and Ⅲb due to the adjustment of the molar ratio of CO3^2- concentration to copper concentration([CT]/[Cu^2+]). The removal efficiency could exceed 95% and the average effluent copper concentration decreased to 3.0 mg/L. The mean particle size of seed grains with copper crystals coating on, raised to 0.36 mm from initial 0.18 mm. During period Ⅲ-a, the supersaturation exceeded 2.88 × 104, the removal efficiency decreased to 60%–80% and the particle size dropped to 0.30 mm, due to the generation of fines by homogeneous crystallization and seeds breaking. And the morphology of the crystals on the seed grains changed from rod-like to spherical which lead to the particle size decreasing. In period Ⅲ-b,the supersaturation was modified by adjusting the molar ratio of [CT]/[Cu^2+] to 1.2 from 2.The efficiency was back to 95% and the mean particle size grew to 0.36 mm at the end of Ⅲb, the crystals coating on the seeds turned back to rod-like products of good stability. This study illustrated that the copper salt crystal could keep on growing on the seed grains for over 150 days, the feasibility and controllability of copper recovery by induced crystallization process in FBR were satisfactory, even under the dramatic changes in influent conditions.展开更多
