The structure of the prepared LDHs was characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, TGA, BET surface area and pHzpc. The sorbent ability and sorption mechanisms were also investigated. The LDHs exhibit high removal for Cr(VI), and the sorbed amount depends on the nature of interlayer anion, which decreased in the following order: NO3- 〉 Cl 〉 SO42-, Nitrate-containing LDH reached a Cr(VI) sorption equilibrium within only 30 min. The effects of operating conditions, including initial concentration, solution pH, agitation time and sorbent amount have been studied in batch mode. The optimum conditions were observed at an initial concen- tration of 100 mg. L- 1, pH = 6, agitation time of 60 min and a sorbent dose of 2 g.L- 1. The equilibrium data were fitted to the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models. The Langmuir model was found to sufficiently describe the sorption process, offering a maximum sorption capacity of 71.91 mg-g 1. The sorp- tion kinetic follows pseudo-second-order reaction with high accuracy. Thermodynamic parameters suggested that the sorption process is spontaneous and endothermic in nature.展开更多
The hydrotalcite-like compound [Zn2Al·(OH)6] NO3·nH2O and [Mg2Al·(OH)6] NO3·nH2O (shorted as ZnA1-NO3 and MgAl-NO3) was intercalated with the chelating agent EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic...The hydrotalcite-like compound [Zn2Al·(OH)6] NO3·nH2O and [Mg2Al·(OH)6] NO3·nH2O (shorted as ZnA1-NO3 and MgAl-NO3) was intercalated with the chelating agent EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid) and EDDS (N, N'-1, 2-Ethanediylbis-1-Aspartic Acid) by anion exchange. The materials synthesized in this work were characterized by chemical analysis, FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and XRD (Powder X-ray Diffraction) to confirm their properties. In order to discuss the adsorption capacity of LDHs (Layered Double Hydroxides), the adsorption experiment was investigated under the optimum condition (10 mg, 25℃ and 100 μg·L-1). The amount of metallic ions adsorbed by LDHs intercalated with EDTA and precursor LDHs were determined by ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry) and AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrometry). The intercalation of EDTA leads to improve the adsorption capacity of LDHs. LDHs intercalated with chelating agents have generally high affinity for removing metallic ions, and they can be efficient adsorbents for metallic ions.展开更多
