The effect of contact time, initial Cr(VI) concentration and pH was investigated. The results showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of SAAEF was 187.7 mg/g at pH=1.0. The adsorption capacity increased with Cr(VI) concentration but decreased with pH value when pH〉1.0. Adsorption isotherms at various temperatures were obtained. Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich and Temkin models were adopted and the equilibrium data fitted best with the Langmuir isotherm. The constants of these models indicated that the adsorption process involved both chemisorption and physisorption. The values of thermodynamic parameters, including DH, DG and DS, suggested that the adsorption of Cr(VI) on SAAEF was a spontaneous, entropy-driven and endothermic process. Q(iso) was not a constant value, which indicated an inhomogenous energy distribution on SAAEF.展开更多

The kinetic adsorption of ammonium nitrogen (NH+-N) by CW substrate materials such as blast furnace slag (BFS), zeolite, ceramsite, vermiculite, gravel, paddy soil, red soil, and turf, was investigated using batch experiments and kinetic adsorption isotherms. Both Freundlich and Lang- muir isotherms could adequately predict the NH+-N adsorption process. The maximum adsorption capacities of NH+-N, estimated from the Langmuir isotherm, ranked as: zeolite (33 333.33 mg kg^-1) 〉 turf (29274.01 mg kg^-1) 〉 BFS (5000 mg kg^-1) 〉 vermiculite (3333.33 mg kg^-1) 〉 gravel (769.23 mg kg^-1) 〉 paddy soil (588.24 mg kg^-1) 〉 red soil (555.56 mg kg^-1) 〉 ceramsite (107.53 mg kg^-1). Some properties of the substrate materials, including bulk density, specific gravity, hydraulic conductivity, uniformity coefficient (K60), curvature coefficient (Co), organic matter, pH, exchangeable (or active) Cu, Fe, Zn and Mn, total Cu, and Fe, Mn, Zn, Cd, Pb and Ca, had negative correlations with NH+-N adsorption. Other properties of the substrate materials like particle diameter values of D10, 030 and 060 (the diameters of particle sizes of a substrate material at which 10%, 30% and 60%, respectively, of the particles pass through the sieve based on the accumulative frequency), cation exchange capacity (CEC), exchangeable (or active) Ca and Mg, and total K and Mg had positive correlations with NH+-N adsorption. In addition, active K and Na as well as the total Na had significant positive correlations with NH+-N adsorption. This information would be useful for selection of suitable substrate materials for CWs.展开更多
