The adsorption of cesium (Cs+) and strontium (St^++ ) from aqueous solutions onto commercial natural bentonite (NB) was studied as a function of contact time, temperature, bentonite mass and bentonite treatment (washing and heat treatment) on the uptake of these cations, independently. The heat treatment was 700 ℃ and washed bentonite samples termed by CB and WB respectively. Batch experiments results showed that the adsorptive capacity of NB at 293,298 and 308 K for Cs^+ and Sr^++ were 110,105, 104 and 35, 33.6, 31.8 mg/g respectively. The experimental results for strontium adsorption 293, 298 and 308 K fit well to a Langmuirian and Frendlich type isotherm but cesium adsorption fit better with Langmuir than Frendlich isotherm. Thermodynamic functions, the change of free energy (△G°), enthalpy (△H°) and entropy (AS°) of adsorption were also calculated for each cation. These parameters showed that the adsorption of Cs^+ and Sr^++ onto N B was feasible, spontaneous and exothermic. The adsorption of Sr^++ and Cs^+ increases with increasing pH (pH 2-8) and follows pseudo-second order kinetics reaching equilibrium after an equilibration time of 300 and 5 min respectively. The adsorbed amount of Cs^+ not affected by washing of NB but affected by the heat treatment. However the adsorbed amount of Sr^++ on WB was higher than NB and CB.展开更多

In this paper, the effect of ultrasonic frequency, ultrasonic intensity and pH value on 3-chlorophenol decomposition were studied. It was found that 3-chlorophenol in aqueous solution can be markedly decomposed by ultrasound assisted electrocatalytic process. The rate of decomposition increased with the increase of frequency, and low frequency is proper in the ultrasound assisted electrocatalytic system. The removal of 3-chlorophenol increased visibly with the increase of ultrasonic intensity until the intensity of 1.56 W/cm2. Alkaline condition is beneficial to 3-chlorophenol decomposition, the rate at pH 9.08 was higher than pH 2.48 and 6.85. The major intermediate formed during 3-chlorophenol decomposition was 2-chloro-pbenzoquinone, which was readily decomposed by ultrasound assisted electrocatalytic process.展开更多

The adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil was investigated on batch equilibrium adsorption experiments. Results show that the Pb2+ adsorption on the soil is relatively rapid in the first 30 min and reaches equilibrium at 2 h, and the kinetics of the adsorption process on the soil is well characterized by the pseudo-second order reaction rate. Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin isothermal models are fit for the adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil, and the maximum amount of Pb2+ adsorption (Qm) is 7.47 mg/g. The amount of Pb2+ adsorption increases with increasing the pH at the range of 1.2-4.5 and reaches a plateau at the range of 4.5-12. The presence of humic acid in soil decreases the adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil at solution pH of 8 since the negatively charged humic acid with Pb2+ is difficult to be adsorbed on the negatively charged soil surface. The adsorption of Pb2+ onto the soil also decreases in the presence of Cu2+ due to file competition adsorption between Pb2+ and Cu2+.展开更多

The influences of process parameters on the AC's specific surface area and adsorption capacity for Pb2+ were examined to optimize these parameters. The optimal conditions for the preparation of AC were determined to be activation temperature of 500 °C, activation time of 1 h, impregnation ratio of 1:1(solid-to-liquid volume) with the 30% ZnCl2 solution(mass fraction), giving the BET surface area of 393.85 m2/g and yield of 30.14% with 33.45% ash. Also, the pyrolysis temperature was found to be the most important parameter in chemical activation. FTIR spectra provided the evidence of some surface structures such as C=C and C—O—C. In the adsorption studies, a rise in solution pH led to a significant increase in adsorption capacity when the pH value varied from 3.0 to 7.0, and the optimal pH for removal of Pb2+ was 7.0. It was observed that the pseudo-second-order equation provided better correlation for the adsorption rate than the pseudo-first-order and the Langmuir model fitted better than the Freundlich model for adsorption isotherm. The adsorption capacity of AC to Pb2+ was 11.75 mg/L at solution pH 7.0, the equilibrium time 480 min and 25 °C. Moreover, the adsorption process is endothermic according to the value of enthalpy change.展开更多
