TEM and XRD analysis confirmed the existence of FO on FOAE. After FO loading, the adsorption capacity of the hybrid adsorbent increased from 38.70 to 51.52mg.g-1. Adsorption processes for both FOAE and anion resin were better fit to the pseudo first order model. Batch adsorption experiments revealed that higher temperature (313K), higher initial phosphate concentration (50 mg.L-1) and lower solution pH (pH value of 2) would be more propitious to phosphate adsorption. Competition effect of coexisting anions on phosphate removal can be concluded as sulfate 〉 nitrate 〉 chloride. Freundlich isotherm model can describe the adsorption of phosphate on FOAE more accurately, which indicated the heterogeneous adsorption occurred on the inner-surface of FOAE.展开更多

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) were used to create hydroxyl (-OH), carboxyl (-COOH), amine (-NH2) and methyl (-CH3) functionalized surfaces, which proved to be of the same surface density. The immersion time of substrates in the Fe(OH)3 suspension was divided into two time portions. During the first period of 2 h, few ferric oxide/oxyhydroxide was deposited except that E-Fe203 was detected on -NH2 surface. Crystallization for 10h evidenced more kinds of iron compounds on the functional surfaces. Goethite and maghemite were noticed on four functional surfaces, and maghemite also grew on Au surface. Deposition of ^-Fe203 was found on -OH surface, while the growth of orthorhombic and hexagon FeOOH were indicated on -NH2 surface. Considering the wide existence of iron compounds in nature, our investigation is a precedent work to the study of iron biomineralization in the suspension area.展开更多
