Some variable parameters such as pH, reaction time and chitosan dosage were optimized. Under the optimum experiment condition, the effect of common ions on the adsorption of Cr （i.e., Na^＋, K^＋, Mg^2＋, Ca^2＋ for Cr（Ⅲ）, and Cl^-, NO3^-, SO4^2- for Cr（Ⅵ）） was also investigated. Furthermore, the sorption mechanism of Cr by chitosan was investigated by applying Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations to the data obtained. In addition, to confirm the characteristics of the chitosan, the surface morphology of the biomass was determined by SEM （scanning electron microscope） and specific surface area analyzer （N2-BET （Brunaeur, Emmet and Teller））. Consequently, the following matters have been mainly clarified： （1） chitosan can be an efficient sorbent for Cr （both Cr（Ⅲ） and Cr（Ⅵ））; （2） the effect of common ions on the adsorption ofCr （Cr（Ⅲ） and Cr（Ⅵ）） was not significant under this experimental conditions; （3） adsorption isotherms using the chitosan can be generally described by Langmuir isotherm more satisfactorily for Cr. The adsorption may have occurred mainly by monolayer reaction; （4） the rates of adsorption were found to conform to pseudo-second order kinetics.展开更多

Flotation and adsorption tests were first studied as a function of initial solution conditions. The results show that electrostatic repulsion between CMC molecules and chlorite surface hinders the approach of the CMC molecules to the chlorite surface and CMC adsorbs to a great extent at high ionic concentration (10-4 mol/L ions as opposed to 0 mol/L ions) or low pH (3 as opposed to 9). The enhanced adsorption density is attributed to the decreased electrostatic repulsion between CMC and mineral surface. The solution condition that yielded the lowest initial adsorbed amount (0 mol/L ions, pH 9) was used as a reference to investigate the response of the adsorbed CMC layer to a switch in solution conditions after adsorption. The two kinds of solution switches (reducing the solution pH or increasing ionic concentration) result in an increased depression effect of CMC on chlorite flotation, as a result of conformational change of CMC pre-adsorbed layer. The change in the flotation recovery of the CMC-coated chlorite following the solution switches is reversible.展开更多

Tensile and compression tests for samples immersed in 12.5 g/dm3 sodium hydroxide solution and without sodium hydroxide solution were performed using a universal testing machine （Monsanto tensometer）. The results from the tensile test indicate that stress is fairly proportional to strain. However, the tensile strength increases （reduction in strain）, as the soaking time increases for the treated composites. The untreated samples demonstrate reduced tensile strength compared to the treated composites under hygrothermal conditions. The conditioned samples in each case show better tensile and compressive strength compared to the untreated samples. The plant coconut fibres investigated demonstrate acceptable mechanical properties similar to the synthetic counterparts.展开更多

The results of tests show that the corrosive depth is increasing and the unconfined compression strength is decreasing with the increase of H2SO4 solution concentration at the same erosion time, and the corrosive degree is increasing with the corrosive time. In the earlier state, the corrosive effect is serious, but the effect becomes slow in the later state in the same concentrated H2SO4 solution. After take statistics the date, a coefficient a is put forward to predict the reduction of the compressive strength of cemented soil in various concentration of H2SO4 solution, which could be used in practical design.展开更多
