热活化胶状黄铁矿去除酸性溶液中的Cd(Ⅱ)

利用XRD和SEM测试方法表征了热活化胶状黄铁矿结构和微观形貌,考察了溶液pH、溶解氧和热活化温度对热活 化胶状黄铁矿去除水中Cd（Ⅱ）的影响,并探讨了除Cd（Ⅱ）反应动力学和作用机理。胶状黄铁矿在N2氛围下650℃热活化 5 min可完全分解生成多孔结构化单斜磁黄铁矿（PMPyr）。在pH 2~6的无氧水溶液中PMPyr除Cd（Ⅱ）效率均达到88%以 上,除Cd（Ⅱ）效率受pH影响较小;PMPyr表面氧化会抑制其与Cd（Ⅱ）的反应。PMPyr除Cd（Ⅱ）动力学可用准二级动力学模型拟合（R2> 0.9992）,结合溶液pH变化趋势、Fe（Ⅱ）和SO42-浓度变化推测,PMPyr除Cd（Ⅱ）机理主要是Fe1-xS和CdS溶度积差异推动了PMPyr与Cd（Ⅱ）交换反应,表面络合属于次要作用。

微量As(Ⅲ)是水中较难去除的毒性物质,天然黄铁矿对水中As(Ⅲ)的去除能力低于磁黄铁矿.将黄铁矿在氮气下高温煅烧使其转变为由磁黄铁矿构成的多孔结构化材料,具有较高的比表面积和表面化学反应活性,在地下水As(Ⅲ)去除方面具有潜在的应用前景.考察了煅烧温度、煅烧时间、pH值以及溶解氧对去除水中As(Ⅲ)的影响.结果表明黄铁矿煅烧生成的单斜磁黄铁矿对As(Ⅲ)具有最佳去除效果,最佳煅烧条件为600℃煅烧1 h;在水溶液有溶解氧条件下煅烧黄铁矿去除As(Ⅲ)的适宜p H值范围较宽(4~10),而在水溶液缺少溶解氧条件下适宜pH值则变为7~10;煅烧黄铁矿在有氧水溶液中对As(Ⅲ)的吸附比缺氧水溶液中的吸附效果好.     

稀土氧化物及黏土负载La2O3除磷性能的实验研究

地表水体富营养化现象与磷的积累有密切关系,去除水体中溶解态磷是降低富营养化风险的技术关键。近十余年来,稀土元素被用于污水除磷剂的开发,并获得了良好的应用成效。本文实验比较了8种结晶态稀土氧化物(Y_2O_3、La_2O_3、CeO_2、Pr6O11、Nd_2O_3、Sm_2O_3、Eu_2O_3和Dy_2O_3)的除磷性能,结果表明La_2O_3的除磷性能最好,Pr6O11、Y_2O_3、Eu_2O_3、Nd_2O_3次之,Sm_2O_3和Dy_2O_3效果微弱,CeO_2完全没有除磷能力;研究表明稀土氧化物表面磷吸附的动力学行为更符合准一级反应模型,吸附等温线符合Langmuir模型。实验表征了除磷后的稀土氧化物和除磷过程中溶液p H值的变化,认为稀土氧化物除磷是一个表面吸附占主导,氧化物溶解出来的离子辅助沉淀的吸附过程。为了避免稀土氧化物颗粒在水体中发生团聚并降低表面吸附能力,将稀土氧化物La_2O_3微纳米颗粒负载在不同黏土矿物上,发现负载于黏土矿物表面的稀土氧化物除磷能力有较好提升,磷吸附量均提高25%左右。负载等量La_2O_3的3种黏土矿物的除磷性能差异不显著,黏土矿物提高稀土氧化物颗粒分散度可能是后者除磷能力提升的主要原因。     

磁铁矿协同增强磁黄铁矿去除水体中六价铬

Studies on the recovery of uranium from nuclear industrial effluent using nanoporous silica adsorbent

In this paper, the sorption of uranium onto nanoporous silica adsorbent in the presence of nitrate, sulfate, chloride, fluoride and phosphate was studied. The effect of contact time between the nanoporous sorbent and aqueous solution, pH and initial concentration of uranium was also investigated. Uranium sorption onto nanoporous silica adsorbent is a very fast process as sorption rate increases with pH increment. Optimum pH for uranium sorption was 4?C8. Experimental sorption isotherm is successfully described by Langmuir and Freundlich models. The results obtained by batch experiments showed that the presence of high concentration of nitrate, sulfate, chloride and phosphate anions alone had no interference with uranium recovery. However, the presence of fluoride ions (>250?mg/L) decreases uranium sorption by about 55?%. The results also showed that the presence of phosphate ions (about 300?mg/L) in solution could remove fluoride interference completely. Finally, the efficiency of the nanoporous silica adsorbent for uranium recovery from wastewater of the uranium conversion facility was investigated.     

Removal of Cu(Ⅱ) From Aqueous Solutions Using Colloidal Pyrite Calcined Under Inert Atmosphere

A natural colloidal pyrite calcined in N2 atmosphere was utilized to remove Cu(II) from aqueous solutions in present work. Effect of calcination temperature, initial solution pH, reaction time, initial Cu(II) concentration, sorption temperature, foreign ions and the dissolved oxygen (DO) on Cu(II) removal was investigated. The results showed that colloidal pyrite calcined at 500-550°C (CCPy) has a most promising potential for Cu(II) removal. The increase of pH, initial Cu(II) concentration and reaction time benefited the improvement of Cu(II) removal efficiency. The isothermal adsorption data of CCPy was well described by Langmuir isotherms and the thermodynamic parameters (ΔG<0, ΔH>0), indicating the endothermic nature of Cu(II) sorption on CCPy. The presence of most common ions in acid mine drainage and DO just had little influence on the Cu(II) uptake. The observation implied that CCPy is a low-cost, abundant material for Cu removal from Cu waters.     

Evaluation of natural quartz and zeolitic tuffs for As(V) removal from aqueous solutions: a mechanistic approach

Naturally occurring pyroclastic materials, quartz-rich tuffs (Qz) and stellerite tuffs, were evaluated for their capacities to remove As(V) from aqueous solutions. The mechanism of As(V) uptake was evaluated using sequential extraction of As(V)-loaded adsorbent which entailed that the plausible removal mechanism is sorption to short-range ordered hydrous oxides of iron and aluminum. In addition, buffering effects of adsorbents could form favorable charges upon them through hydrolysis of amphoteric oxides, enhancing the performance of sorption. The influence of anions co-existing with As(V) in water such as carbonate, bicarbonate, nitrate, chloride, phosphate, and sulfate was studied in a batch sorption process. The impact of most anions on As(V) removal was found to be negligible except phosphate. The sorption behavior well fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich models. Estimated maximum sorption capacities of 0.42 and 0.23 mg/L were observed using quartz-rich tuffs and stellerite tuffs, respectively. As(V) concentration of 0.8 mg/L was easily decreased to below the drinking water standard of 0.01 mg/L using Qz adsorbent, whereas 0.1 mg/L As(V) decreased to below this limit upon the use of stellerite tuffs under similar conditions. The buffering capacity of quartz-rich tuffs and stellerite tuffs induced a pH increase to 5.76 and 5.40, respectively, from initial pH of 3.50, which will incur an important asset in real applications.     

Simulation of an in situ iron removal test

This article outlines the main mechanisms for in-situ removal of iron from groundwater. The dependence of ferrous iron kinetic oxidation by dissolved oxygen on the temperature and pH in bicarbonate near neutral groundwater was investigated. The dependence of oxygen consumption efficiency on the iron sorption coefficient, pH, and temperature of groundwater was obtained as a result of modeling of the one well in-situ iron removal test in the Amurskiy water intake facilities.     

Removal of cadmium and humic acid from aqueous solutions using surface modified nanozeolite A

The sorption of cadmium and humic acids from aqueous solutions using surface-modified nanozeolite A has been investigated under various examination conditions. The morphology of untreated and treated nanozeolite was studied under scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope. Isotherms of cadmium adsorption onto surface-modified nanozeolite A were studied at different pH, solid to liquid ratio, adsorbate concentration and interaction time. Kinetic and equilibrium studies were conducted and the equilibrium data have been analyzed using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The study revealed that experimental results were in agreement with the Freundlich model. The Langmuir monolayer adsorption capacity was found to be 1666.67 g cadmium and 6.75 g humic acid per gram of modified nanozeolite A, which is higher than that of reported value for other zeolites. The sorption ability was enhanced by surface modification and reduction in size and enabled the zeolite to adsorb cadmium. The adsorption of cadmium and humic acid on nanozeolite was found to be the highest at pH 6 and 3, respectively. Results showed that solid to liquid ratio and pH are the most important factors for cadmium and humic acid removal, respectively. Effect of competitive ions was studied and results showed that there is no competition between cadmium and humic acid sorption and presence of these ions.

Saraca indica leaf powder for decontamination of Pb: removal, recovery, adsorbent characterization and equilibrium modeling

The present study explores the effectiveness of Saraca indica leaf powder, a surplus low value agricultural waste, in removing Pb ions from aqueous solution. The influence of pH, biomass dosage, contact time, particle size and metal concentration on the removal process were investigated. Batch studies indicated that maximum biosorption capacity for Pb was 95.37% at the pH 6.5. The sorption process followed the first order rate kinetics. The adsorption equilibrium data fitted best to both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. Morphological changes observed in scanning electron micrographs of untreated and metal treated biomass confirmed the phenomenon of biosorption. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of native and exhausted leaf powder confirmed lead biomass interactions responsible for sorption. Acid regeneration was tried for several cycles with a view to recover the sorbed metal ion and also to restore the sorbent to its original state. The findings showed that Saraca indica leaf powder can easily be envisaged as a new, vibrant, low cost biosorbent for metal clean up operations.     

Iron sulfide oxidation and the chemistry of acid generation

Acid mine drainage, produced from the oxidation of iron sulfides, often contains elevated levels of dissolved aluminum (AI), iron (Fe), and sulfate (SO₄) and low pH. Understanding the interactions of these elements associated with acid mine drainage is necessary for proper solid waste management planning. Two eastern oil shales were leached using humidity cell methods. This study used a New Albany Shale (4.6 percent pyrite) and a Chattanooga Shale (1.5 percent pyrite). The leachates from the humidity cells were filtered, and the filtrates were analyzed for total concentrations of cations and anions. After correcting for significant solution species and complexes, ion activities were calculated from total concentrations. The results show that the activities of Fe³⁺, Fe²⁺, Al³⁺, and SO₄ ²⁻ increased due to the oxidation of pyrite. Furthermore, the oxidation of pyrite resulted in a decreased pH and an increased pe+pH (redox-potential). The Fe³⁺ and Fe²⁺ activities appeared to be controlled by amorphous Fe(OH)₃ solid phase above a pH of 6.0 and below pe+pH 11.0. The Fe³⁺, Fe²⁺, and SO₄ ²⁻ activities reached saturation with respect to FeOHSO₄ solid phase between pH 3.0 and 6.0 and below pe+pH 11.0 Below a pH of 3.0 and above a pe+pH of 11.0, Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, and SO₄ ²⁻ activities are supported by FeSO₄·7H₂O solid phase. Above a pH of 6.0, the Al³⁺ activity showed an equilibrium with amorphous Al(OH)₃ solid phase. Below pH 6.0, Al³⁺ and SO₄ ²⁻ activities are regulated by the AlOHSO₄ solid phase, irrespective of pe+pH. The results of this study suggest that under oxidizing conditions with low to high leaching potential, activities of Al and Fe can be predicted on the basis of secondary mineral formation over a wide range of pH and redox. As a result, the long-term chemistry associated with disposal environments can be largely predicted (including trace elements).     

Pyrite oxidation inhibition by a cross-linked lipid coating

The effect of a diacetylene-containing phospholipid on the oxidation of pyrite, FeS₂, was investigated. Earlier work reported by our research group showed that the adsorption of l,2-bis(10,12-tricosadiynoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine on pyrite suppressed the extent of its oxidation by about 75% over a specific time period. Results presented here show that the pre-exposure to UV radiation of this lipid after sorption onto pyrite results in a 90% suppression. Attenuated total reflection (ATR) Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) suggests that the UV irradiation of the lipid does not result in degradation of the adsorbed layer. It is believed that the UV exposure results in the cross-linking and polymerization of the adsorbed phospholipid into a relatively impermeable barrier that separates the pyrite from the aqueous phase. The results of this study might have implications for the protection of pyrite from oxidation in the environment.
