The adsorption properties of N alkyl chitosans, bearing the same substitution degree but different carbon chain length and vice versa for Cu(Ⅱ), Hg(Ⅱ) and Pb(Ⅱ) have been investigated. It is found that chitosan derivatives of the same carbon chain length show the highest adsorption capacity for tested ions, when their substitution degree is ranged in 0 35～0 39. And among the chitosan derivatives bearing the same substitution degree, N pentyl chitosan shows the highest adsorption capacity towards mentioned ions.展开更多

The result shows that the chitin adsorbent has high adsorption capacity for many heavy metal ions and Ni2+ in citric acid. The influence of pH was significant:When pH is higher than 4.0, the high adsorption capacity is obtained,otherwise H+ ion inhibits the adsorption of heavy metal ions. The comparison of the chitin adsorbent with some other commercial adsorbents was made, in which that the adsorption behaviorchitin adsorbent is close to that of commercial cation exchange adsorbents, and its cost is much lower than those commercial adsorbents.展开更多

Potential solutions to these problems were investigated by adding a synthetic zeolite obtained from coal fly ash to different steps of activated sludge treatment. The experimental results for ammonium removal fit well with the theoretical adsorption isotherms of the Freundlich model with a maximum adsorption capacity of 13.72 mg.g-＇. Utiliza- tion of this kind of zeolite to improve activated sludge sediment ability is studied for the first time in this work. It is found that the addition of the zeolite （1 g. L-1） to an activated sludge with settling problems significantly enhances its sediment ability and comoact ability. This is confirmed by the sludge volume index （SVI）, which was reduced from 163 ml.g-1 to 70 ml.g-r, the V60 value, which was reduced from 894 ml.L-1 to 427 ml.L-1, and the zeta poten- tial （0, which was reduced from -19.81 mV to -14.29 mV. The results indicate that the addition of this synthetic zeolite to activated sludge, as an additional waste management practice, has a positive impact on both ammonium removal and sludge settleability.展开更多

The effects of mobile phase conditions and the operating parameters on removal performance of the chelating membrane for Hg^2＋ were also investigated. The recovery of Hg^2＋ decreased at low pH and the optimum range of pH was from 6 to 7. The feed concentration effected on recovery of Hg^2＋ at the specified loading amount of Hg^2＋. The Hg^2＋ could be removed from different concentration feed solution by chelating membrane. The increase of feed flow rate led to slight decrease of recovery of Hg^2＋ at the specified loading amount of Hg^2＋. The chelating membrane could be operated at height feed flow rate and a large-scale removal of H^2＋ could be realized. With the increase of load amount, Hg^2＋ recovery decreased, but the saturation degree of chelating membrane increased. According to required recovery of H^2＋ and the saturation degree of chelating membrane, the optimum loading amount of Hg^2＋ should be selected in the actual removal of H^2＋.展开更多
