A series of tests were performed to look into the influence of various experimental parameters such as contact time, initial phenol concentration, temperature, and pH value on the adsorption of phenol by lignite activated carbon. The experimental data were fitted well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The adsorption is an endothermic process and conforms to Freundlich thermodynamic model. The results indicate that the lignite activated carbon is suitable to be used as an adsorbent material for adsorption of phenol from aqueous solutions.展开更多

The results of phenol decomposition using PS catalyzed by heating, Fe2＋, Fe^0 and semi-coke were compared for selecting a better activating way. The article investigated the effects of temperature, catalyzer dosage, pH value and reaction time. The experiment showed the four methods can all catalyzed the process. Under the experimental conditions of heating, Fe2＋, Fe^0 and semi-coke degradation rate could reach to 20.7%, 75.1%, 94.5% and 40.0%, respectively. On this basis, this study established an Lt6（45） table to analyze the main influencing factors in semi-coke/Fe^0 catalyzing system. Under the optimum conditions, the degradation rate of Phenol reached to 93.6%. However, the PS dosage was reduced by 14.4%.展开更多

The phenol fraction for the present investigation has been procured from Visakhapatnam Steel Plant, Visakhapatnam whose composition is known. The phenol fraction from coal tar distillate can be treated for extracting phenols using caustic soda. An attempt has been made to find out whether the existing practice of using only 8%-15% can be modified by increasing the strength of sodium hydroxide and also explore the possibilities of substituting the sodium hydroxide with KOH as an extractant. The different streams of liquids obtained during experimentation have been analyzed by gas chromatograph. Salient features of the study are that higher concentrations of the alkali significantly improved the separation efficiencies of phenols and also regenerate the phenolate with higher phenol content. Increase in the alkali strength has greatly improved the separation as well as the phenol content in the regenerated phenols. Disposal of effluents containing phenols may lead to environmental problem of ground water pollution and the study throws a light on the removal of phenols from the effluents to the extent possible by using higher strength alkali solutions.展开更多
