Adsorption capacity of Sb（V） removal from copper electrolyte was as follows： white sand 〈 anionic resin 〈 zeolite 〈 kaolin 〈 activated carbon 〈 bentonite. Bentonite was characterized using FTIR, XRF, XRD, SEM and BET methods. The results show specific surface area of 95 m2/g and particles size of 175 nm for bentonite. The optimum conditions for the maximum removal of Sb are contact time 10 min, 4 g bentonite and temperature of 40 ° C. The adsorption of Sb（V） on bentonite is followed by pseudo-second-order kinetic （R2=0.996 and k=9×10？5 g/（mg· min））. Thermodynamic results reveal that the adsorption of Sb（V） onto bentonite from copper electrolyte is endothermic and spontaneous process （ΔGΘ=？4806 kJ/（mol· K）. The adsorption data fit both the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models. Bentonite has the maximum adsorption capacity of 10000 mg/g for adsorption of Sb（V） in copper electrolyte. The adsorption of Zn, Co, Cu and Bi that present in the copper electrolyte is very low and insignificant.展开更多

Pyrolusite, which contains mainly MnO2, is a manganese ore. The effects of the initial concentration of copper（II） ions, initial pH of solution, adsorbent dosage and particle size on the adsorption process were examined. It was found that the percentage of the adsorbed copper increases with increasing the amount of adsorbent. It was observed that the maximum adsorption occurred at natutral initial pH values for all copper concentrations. While the initial solution concentration, initial pH, contact time, stirring speed, particle size and adsorbent dosage were 2.5 mmol/L, natural, 180 min, 200 r/min, 120μm and 6 g/L, respectively, the efficiency of copper adsorption on pyrolusite ore was 96.5%. The isotherm and kinetic studies relating to this adsorption process were also made. It was determined that the equilibrium data followed the Langmuir isotherm model while the process kinetic could be described by the pseudo-second order kinetic model.展开更多

The micro-flotation results show that combined use of NaBX+DDA yields better effect than using NaBX at pH 7-11 only, and the optimal molar ratio of NaBX to DDA is 2: 1. The actual ores flotation shows that when the dosage of NaBX+DDA is (100+54) g/t, the copper concentrate grade and recovery are 15.93% and 76.73%, respectively. The fluorescent pyrene probe test demonstrates that the NaBX+DDA can reduce the micelle concentration in the pulp. The zeta potential and the infrared spectroscopy analyses indicate that chemical adsorption, hydrogen-bonding and electrostatic interaction can help to adsorb NaBX+DDA on the surface of malachite. Meantime, copper xanthate and copper-amine complexes may be generated during the adsorption process.展开更多

It is found that reaction activities of CuO supported on γ-Al2O3 could be highly improved. Desulfurization kinetics of CuO/γ-Al2O3 was studied in the temperature range of 250 °C-400 °C and SO2 concentration of 0.1%-0.9%. The experimental data were tested and compared with kinetics models of volume reaction model(VRM), grain size model(GSM), random pore model(RPM) and pore-blocking model(PBM). Correlation analysis shows that VRM and RPM models do not fit experimental data well. GSM contradicts with the changes in the physical and chemical properties of Cu O/γ-Al2O3 as the desulfurization proceeds. It is found that PBM is consistent with the change of pore structure of CuO/γ-Al2O3 sorbent during desulfurization process and predicts the conversion-time curves of the sorbent well. Meanwhile, kinetics parameters are obtained and discussed.展开更多

This experimental study aims to investigate the possible use of Libyan local soil, Ashkida soil, mined in the Southern Province of Libya as a low cost adsorbent to remove copper ions from aqueous solutions. In this work, the effects of various parameters such as adsorbent dosage, initial concentration of copper, agitation rate, contact time and solution pH level on the adsorption efficiency are investigated through batch experiments at room temperature. The results indicate that the optimum conditions for copper removal from aqueous solutions are 60 minutes contact time, 10 g/L adsorbent dose and 500 rpm agitation rate at natural pH value. The results are fitted to Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherms. A satisfactory agreement between the experimental data and the model-predicted values is expressed by the correlation coefficient, r^2, and the total mean error, E%. Freundlich model offers the best representation of adsorption process revealing a monolayer adsorption capacity, qmax, of 27.03 mg/g. A comparison of kinetic models applied to the adsorption of copper ions on the adsorbent is evaluated by simple first order, pseudo first order and pseudo second order kinetic models. Kinetic parameters, rate constant, equilibrium sorption capacities and related correlation coefficients for each kinetic model are determined revealing that the pseudo second order kinetic model is in a better correlation with the experimental data in comparison with the other isotherms.展开更多

By combination with DFT results, characteristic Cu+–CO bands located at 2154 and 2136 cm.1 are attributed to CO adsorbed on Cu+ ions located at sites I(in the plane of six-membered ring connected to the large cages) and site II(in the eight-membered ring cages near the tilted four membered ring) in the framework of H-SAPO-34 zeolite. Subsequently, both the influences of Cu loading and preparation method are considered and discussed. By varying the Cu loading, the site-occupation preference of Cu+ ions on site I is confirmed,especially at low Cu loadings. Through elevating the desorption temperature, migration of Cu+ ions is revealed because of the adsorption-induced effect. Furthermore, a facile and more efficient approach to introduce Cu+ ions into CHA zeolite, compared with solid-state ion exchange with CuCl and conventional ion exchange in aqueous solution, and the different preparation methods also result in different occupations of Cu+ ions.展开更多
