Compared with various clays tested, CNTs showed a much stronger ability to adsorb MC-RR and LR that were two typical types of microcystins found in China. At initial 21.0 mg/L of MC-RR and 9.5 mg/L of MC-LR in solution, the adsorption amounts of MC-RR and LR by CNTs were 14.8 and 6.7 mg/g that were about five times higher than those by the clay ma-terials of sepiolite, kaolinite and talc, etc. In the presence of CNTs and the bacterial Ralstonia solanacearum that was firstly isolated and used for the biodegradation of MCs by the authors, a remarkable removal of MCs from water were observed. The mechanism was that CNTs could absorb large amount of both MCs and the embedded R. solanacearum so that, even when diluted by a large amount of water, the con-centrations of both organic pollutants and the added bacteria could be largely enhanced on the surface of CNTs where a concerted biodegradation reaction was effectively conducted. This finding could be important for the further development of practical techniques to eliminate MCs from polluted drinking waters.展开更多

The characterization of AWP-CaALG microcapsule was examined by SEM and EPMA. The ad- sorption behavior of Cs(Ⅰ), Rb(Ⅰ), Sr(Ⅱ), Pd(II), Ru(Ⅲ), Rh(Ⅲ), La(Ⅲ), Ce(Ⅲ), Dy(Ⅲ) and Zr(IV) was investigated by the batch method. The batch experiments were carried out by varying the shaking times, HNO3 concentration, and initial concen- tration of metal ions. Relatively large K+ values above 105 cm3/g for Cs(I) were obtained in the range of 0.1-5 M HNO3, re- sulting in a separation factor of Cs/Rb exceeding 102. In contrast, the K+ values of Sr(II), Pd(II), Ru(Ⅲ), La(Ⅲ), Dy(Ⅲ), Ce(Ⅲ) and Zr(IV) were considerably lower than 50 cm3/g. The K+ value of Cs(1) decreased in the order of the coexisting ions, H+ 〉 Na+ 〉〉 NH4+, and a linear relationship with a slop of about -1 was obtained between log Kd and log [NH4+] ([NH4+] 〉 0.01 M) The adsorption of Cs(I) was found to be controlled by chemisorption mechanism, and followed a Langmuir-type adsorption equation. A high uptake percentage of 99.4% for Cs(I) was obtained by using the dissolved solutions of spent fuel from FBR-JOYO (JAEA).展开更多
