The impacts of common ions on the adsorption of heavy metal

Researches on the impact of common ions onto sediments are of great importance for the study of the heavy metal adsorption mechanisms. Considering the surface sediments from the relatively clean reach in the Baotou section of the Yellow River as the adsorbent, this work presents the impacts of common ions (Na⁺, Mg²⁺, K⁺, Ca²⁺, Cl⁻, SO₄ ²⁻, and NH₄ ⁺) on heavy metals (Cu²⁺, Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, and Pb²⁺) adsorption. The experimental results reveal that the adsorptive capacities of the heavy metals are controlled by different adsorption mechanisms in different ion concentration ranges. With the increase of the ionic strength, the adsorption of the heavy metals increases for the compression of the electric double layer, whereas decreases for the decreasing of the ionic activities of the heavy metals. The competitive adsorption and complexations between the heavy metals and common ions are also important factors controlling the heavy metal adsorption. According to the experimental results and the real concentration of common ions in the Baotou section of the Yellow River, the increase of the concentrations of Na⁺, Mg²⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺ would cause the increase of Zn²⁺ adsorption and reduce the Zn pollution. The NH₄ ⁺ from the industrial discharge of the tributaries has a strong impact on the heavy metal adsorption.     

pH effects in the adsorption of heavy metal ions by clays

The amount of hydroxonium or hydroxyl ion sorbed by the sodium form of clays (kaolin, illite or montmorillonite) has been found to increase in proportion with the amount added (i.e., data fits a Boedeker type equation). The adsorptive capacities, and bonding strengths (as evaluated from Langmuir isotherm plots) varied with clay type and nature of the adsorbing species (values for OH^? being greater than for H⁺).The presence of clay suspensions reduced the pH required for total precipitation of heavy metal ions (e.g., Cu, Pb, Cd, Zn), as hydroxy species, and this behaviour has been re-examined in terms of observed pM, pOH relationships and the effect of ligand additions.     

Experimental study on the competitive adsorption of metal ions onto minerals

The study on the competitive adsorption shows that the magnitude order of metal ions adsorbed onto oxide and silicate minerals in near-neutral solution with low ionic strength is in mole/nm² as follows: CaCO₃ > quarte > hydromuscovite > kaolinite > Ca-montmorillonite > goethite > gibbsite. These minerals can be divided into three groups according to their surface equilibrium constantsK _M of the adsorption reactions, which are the function of the dielectric constants ε of the absorbent minerals. The relationships between constantsK _M and mineral dielectric constants ε are described as follows: lgK _M ¹ = 7.813-26.15/ε lgK _M ² = 9.030-26.15/ε lgK _M ³ =11.63-26.15/ε for the adsorption reaction: >SO^- + Mⁿ⁺≥SOM^n-1)+ (n = 1, 2, 3) The first group of minerals include quartz, goethite, 1:1 phyllosilicates and other oxide minerals; the second: gibbsite, brucite and 2:1 phyllosilicates; the third: carbonate, sulphate and phosphorate minerals. The appearance reaction constants have a variation of magnitude ±0.5 for different metal ions with the same mineral.

Proton release during adsorption of heavy metal ions by a hydrous manganese dioxide

During the adsorption of Pb, Cu, Mn or Zn by birnessite, 1 mol of H⁺ is released from the surface for each mole of metal ion sorbed. The potassium appearing in solution during adsorption is not directly involved in the reaction. This resolves some apparently conflicting published results.

Sorptive flotation for metal ions recovery

In this study, the abstraction of nickel, copper and zinc ions from aqueous solutions has been investigated in a laboratory batch scale mode. A combined two-stage process is proposed as an alternative of the heavy metals removal from aqueous solutions. The first stage is the sorption of heavy metals onto non-living microorganisms followed by dispersed-air flotation of the loaded biomass. Three types of strains were used: Penicillium chrysogenum, Saccharomyces carlsbergensis and Streptomyces rimosus. The main parameters studied were solution pH, biomass concentration, surfactant concentration and flocculant concentration. The biomass reuse after elution was also examined. Remediation is a possible application of flotation being cost-effective and with readily available equipment and know-how. The application of this process looks promising.     

D2EHPA-impregnated alumina for adsorption of strontium ions in environmental samples

The alumina impregnated by the di-2-ethyl hexyl phosphoric acid was introduced to make more adsorption of strontium as well as to determine the optimal conditions. The influence of various parameters such as pH, equilibrium time, adsorbent mass, interfering ions, and various eluant agents for the desorption of the strontium ions, initial concentration, and temperature was investigated to find out the adsorption behavior of the adsorbent under different conditions. The adsorbent was characterized by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The experimental data were fitted on the two-parameter and three-parameter adsorption isotherm models. The Freundlich and Redlich–Peterson models have suitable fitting on the experimental data (R ² = 0.9307). The kinetic models of adsorption were analyzed by the pseudo-first- and pseudo-second-order models. The results have been indicated that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model is more appropriate than the others. Advantages of our method were simple operation, less time for preparation of adsorbent, rapid phase separation, and capability to combine with various detection techniques. The method has been utilized to extract and the recovery of strontium ions in environmental aqueous samples.     

Molecular simulations of metal adsorption to bacterial surfaces

The atomic-scale interactions that occur between cations and the metal-binding cell wall components common to many gram-positive bacteria were investigated using molecular simulations techniques. We examined the adsorption of Cd and Pb onto peptidoglycan and teichoic acid components of the bacterial cell wall using classical energy force field methods. Within the framework of molecular mechanics and the Cerius² modeling software, we used energy minimization, conformational analysis, and molecular dynamics to examine the different components of the cell wall and to determine relative binding energies and structural configurations of the cell wall components, both with and without the metals present. Electronic structure calculations of representative metal-organic complexes validate the more practical classical methods required in simulating the large number of atoms associated with the cell wall components. The classical force field simulations were conducted in both gas phase and solvated periodic cells. Force field-based simulation techniques can adequately describe the interactions of Cd with the cell wall, defining both metal ion coordinations and binding distances. However, the classical force field approach is inconsistent in describing the observed Pb-cell wall interactions due to possible limitations in the force field parameters, the propensity for Pb to form hydroxides at circumneutral pH, or the dominance of other adsorption mechanisms.     

Coprecipitation of alkali metal ions with calcium carbonate

The coprecipitation of alkali metal ions (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺ and Rb⁺) with calcium carbonate has been studied experimentally and the following results have been obtained:

• 1.(1) Alkali metal ions are more easily coprecipitated with aragonite than with calcite.
• 2.(2) The relationship between the amounts of alkali metal ions coprecipitated with aragonite and their ionic radii shows a parabolic curve with a peak located at Na⁺ which has approximately the same ionic radius as Ca²⁺.
• 3.(3) However, the amounts of alkali metal ions coprecipitated with calcite decrease with increasing ionic radius of alkali metals.
• 4.(4) Our results support the hypothesis that
  • 4.1.(a) alkali metals are in interstitial positions in the crystal structure of calcite and do not substitute for Ca²⁺ in the lattice, but
  • 4.2.(b) in aragonite, alkali metals substitute for Ca²⁺ in the crystal structure.
• 5.(5) Magnesium ions in the parent solution increase the amounts of alkali metal ions (Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺ and Rb⁺) coprecipitated with calcite but decrease those with aragonite.
• 6.(6) Sodium-bearing aragonite decreases the incorporation of other alkali metal ions (Li⁺, K⁺ and Rb⁺) into the aragonite.

     

Polarized X-ray absorption spectroscopy of metal ions in minerals

We have made use of the nearly complete linear polarization of synchrotron radiation to study the polarization dependence of X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended fine structure (EXAFS) in oriented single crystals of gillespite (BaFe²⁺ Si₄O₁₀; Fe^{2 +} in square-planar coordination, point symmetry C ₄), anatase (TiO₂; Ti⁴⁺ in octahedral coordination, point symmetry D _2d), and epidote (Ca₂(Al, Fe³⁺)₃SiO₄)₃(OH); Fe³⁺ in distorted octahedral coordination, point symmetry (C _s). For gillespite, the Fe K-XANES spectrum varies strongly with E-vector orientation of the incident X-ray beam. When the E-vector lies in the plane of the FeO₄ group (i.e., perpendicular to the c-axis), multiple-scattering features at 7127 and 7131 eV intensify, whereas when the E-vector is perpendicular to the plane of the FeO₄ group (i.e., parallel to the c-axis), a strongly-polarized 1s to 4p bound state transition occurs at 7116 eV and a localized continuum resonance occurs at 7122 eV. The Fe-K-EXAFS spectrum of gillespite is also highly polarization dependent. When the E-vector is perpendicular to c, all four nearest-neighbor oxygens around Fe²⁺ contribute to the EXAFS signal; when E is parallel to c, the EXAFS signal from nearest-neighbors is reduced by at least 86%. The unpolarized Ti K-XANES spectrum of anatase has three relatively strong pre-edge features at 4967.1, 4969.9, and 4972.7 eV which have resisted definitive interpretation in past studies. The lowest energy feature has a strong xy polarization dependence, suggesting a large amount of 4p _x,y character, and it is also very sharp, indicating a well-defined transition energy. Both of these observations are consistent with an excitonic state with a binding energy of 2.8 eV. The two higher energy features, which are characteristic of octahedrally-coordinated Ti⁴⁺, show little polarization dependence and are probably due to 1s to 3d bound-state transitions, with a small degree of np character in the final state wavefunction. Interpretation of the polarization dependence of Fe K-XANES spectra for epidote is not as straightforward due to the lower space group symmetry (P2₁/m) relative to gillespite (P4/ncc) and anatase (I4₁/amd) and the lower point group symmetry (C _s) of the M(3) site which contains most of the Fe³⁺ in the epidote structure. However, the presence of a shoulder at 7121 eV in the E parallel to b spectrum and its absence in the E normal to bc spectrum are consistent with it being a 1s to 4p _z bound-state transition. Strong, weakly x, y polarized features near 7126 eV in both spectra are most likely due to localized continuum transitions. Also, the 1s to 3d pre-edge intensity varies in intensity with E-vector orientation which is consistent with displacement of Fe³⁺ from the center of the M(3) octahedral site. Analysis of EXAFS spectra of epidote in these two polarizations yields bond distances which are within 0.04 Å of previous single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. This study demonstrates the utility of polarized X-ray absorption spectroscopy in quantifying the energies and orbital compositions of final state wavefunctions associated with various X-ray induced transitions in transition-metal containing minerals. It also shows that reasonably accurate M-O distances can be obtained for individual bonds oriented in crystallographically non-equivalent directions.     

重金属离子在胡敏酸-高岭石复合体上的吸附

本文研究了胡敏酸存在下高岭石对重金属离子的吸附行为。实验结果表明:①胡敏酸和Cu2 溶液按先后顺序或同时加入高岭石中反应,在Cu2 平衡浓度<10mg/L时,3种加入顺序对Cu2 的吸附量基本相同,当Cu2 平衡浓度>10mg/L时,(K Cu) HA和(K Cu HA)两种加入顺序对Cu2 的吸附量比(K HA) Cu的略大。②在pH=5时,胡敏酸-高岭石复合体对Cu2 的吸附量明显大于纯高岭石。这是由于胡敏酸含有大量的羧基和酚羟基等活性基团,吸附在高岭石上的胡敏酸增加了其表面吸附位,在复合体表面形成了S—HA—Cu三元配合物,且Cu2 的吸附量与复合体中胡敏酸的含量在一定范围内成正相关;③溶液pH值在4～7之间变化可调控复合体对Cu2 的吸附机制。④在Cu2 和Cd2 共存时,随着金属离子初始浓度的增大,Cu2 的吸附量呈直线上升,而Cd2 的吸附量增加缓慢,表明复合体对Cu2 的吸附能力比对Cd2 强。     

Reactions of metal ions at surfaces of hydrous iron oxide

Cu, Ag and Cr concentrations in natural water may be lowered by mild chemical reduction involving ferric hydroxide-ferrous ion redox processes. V and Mo solubilities may be controlled by precipitation of ferrous vanadate or molybdate. Concentrations as low as 10^?8.00 or 10^?9.00 M are readily attainable for all these metals in oxygen-depleted systems that are relatively rich in Fe. Deposition of manganese oxides such as Mn₃O₄ can be catalyzed in oxygenated water by coupling to ferrous-ferric redox reactions. Once formed, these oxides may disproportionate, giving Mn⁴⁺ oxides. This reaction produces strongly oxidizing conditions at manganese oxide surfaces. The solubility of As is significantly influenced by ferric iron only at low pH. Spinel structures such as chromite or ferrites of Cu, Ni, and Zn, are very stable and if locally developed on ferric hydroxide surfaces could bring about solubilities much below 10^?9.00 M for divalent metals near neutral pH. Solubilities calculated from thermodynamic data are shown graphically and compared with observed concentrations in some natural systems.     

Simultaneous adsorption of divalent and trivalent metal cations by iron oxide-coated gravel

Reducing heavy metal concentrations to allowable levels in landfill leachate before discharge is an extremely important process to prevent environmental pollution. Iron oxide-coated gravel was used in order to remove Cd(II), Cu(II), Pb(II), Fe(III) and Al(III) simultaneously in high-strength synthetic leachate samples. Batch and column studies were performed to determine the kinetics and mechanism of adsorption process. The experimental data obtained from batch study satisfactorily fitted to the Freundlich model indicating surface heterogeneity and multilayer adsorption process. The data obtained from kinetic studies followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics indicating adsorption governed by chemisorption. The metal adsorption order observed in the batch study was Pb(II)(99.72%) ≈ Cu(II)(99.61%) ≈ Cd(II)(99.51%) ≈ Fe(III)(99.3%) > Al(III)(93.3%) at pH 7. Average metal removals in the fixed-bed column were found to be 96.5% for Cu(II), 94.8% for Pb(II), 90% for Cd(II), 84% for Fe(III) and 67% for Al(III). Iron oxide-coated gravel column adsorption capacity ranged from 0.56 to 66.82 mg/g. Recovery efficiency of adsorbed metals via desorption was between 5–97.75% in first cycle and 2–80.3% in second cycle.     

The effect of species diversity on metal adsorption onto bacteria

In this study, we measure proton, Pb, and Cd adsorption onto the bacteria Deinococcus radiodurans, Thermus thermophilus, Acidiphlium angustum, Flavobacterium aquatile, and Flavobacterium hibernum, and we calculate the thermodynamic stability constants for the important surface complexes. These bacterial species represent a wide genetic diversity of bacteria, and they occupy a wide range of habitats. All of the species, except for A. angustum, exhibit similar proton and metal uptake. The only species tested that exhibits significantly different protonation behavior is A. angustum, an acidophile that grows at significantly lower pH than the other species of this study. We demonstrate that a single, metal-specific, surface complexation model can be used to reasonably account for the acid/base and metal adsorption behaviors of each species. We use a four discrete site non-electrostatic model to describe the protonation of the bacterial functional groups, with averaged pK_a values of 3.1 ± 0.3, 4.8 ± 0.2, 6.7 ± 0.1, and 9.2 ± 0.3, and site concentrations of (1.0 ± 0.17) × 10⁻⁴, (9.0 ± 3.0) × 10⁻⁵, (4.6 ± 1.8) × 10⁻⁵, and (6.1 ± 2.3) × 10⁻⁵ mol of sites per gram wet mass of bacteria, respectively. Adsorption of Cd and Pb onto the bacteria can be accounted for by the formation of complexes with each of the bacterial surface sites. The average log stability constants for Cd complexes with Sites 1-4 are 2.4 ± 0.4, 3.2 ± 0.1, 4.4 ± 0.1, and 5.3 ± 0.1, respectively. The average log stability constants for Pb complexes with Sites 1-4 are 3.3 ± 0.2, 4.5 ± 0.3, 6.5 ± 0.1, and 7.9 ± 0.5, respectively. This study demonstrates that a wide range of bacteria exhibit similar proton and metal adsorption behaviors, and that a single set of averaged acidity constants, site concentrations, and stability constants for metal-bacterial surface complexes yields a reasonable model for the adsorption behavior of many of these species. The differences in adsorption behavior that we observed for A. angustum demonstrate that genetic differences do exist between the cell wall functional group chemistries of some bacterial species, and that significant exceptions to the typical bacterial adsorption behavior do exist.     

Cd adsorption onto Pseudomonas putida in the presence and absence of extracellular polymeric substances

The role of bacterial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in metal adsorption was determined by studying Cd adsorption onto the gram-negative bacterial species Pseudomonas putida with and without enzymatic removal of EPS from the biomass material. A range of experimental approaches were used to characterize the Cd adsorption reactions, including bulk proton and Cd adsorption measurements, FTIR spectroscopy, and fluorescence microscopy. The proton-reactivities of the biomass samples with EPS are not significantly different from those obtained for EPS-free biomass. Similarly, the presence of EPS does not significantly affect the extent of Cd removal from solution by the biomass on a mass-normalized basis, based on bulk Cd adsorption measurements conducted as a function of pH, nor does it appear to strongly affect the Cd-binding groups as observed by FTIR. However, fluorescence microscopy indicates that Cd, although concentrated on cell walls, is also bound to some extent to EPS. Together, the results from this study suggest that the P. putida EPS can bind significant concentrations of Cd from solution, and that the nature and mass-normalized extent of the binding is similar to that of the cell wall. Therefore, the EPS-bearing systems do not exhibit enhanced mass-normalized removal of Cd from solution relative to the EPS-free systems. The presence of the EPS effectively increases the viability of cells exposed to aqueous Cd, likely due to sequestration of the Cd away from the cells due to Cd-EPS binding.     

Effect of surface oxidation and iron contents on xanthate ions adsorption of synthetic sphalerites

Abstraction of xanthate ions from solution by copper-activated synthetic sphalerites with various iron contents was measured. It was found that raising the iron content in the samples caused a decrease in xanthate ions abstraction. For sphalerite samples characterized by the same percentage of iron deoxidized surfaces took up more xanthate ions than oxidized surfaces.Surface coverage by EtX^? ions was determined to be less than one monolayer. These values were compared with copper ion coverage at sphalerite surface. The amount of EtX^? ions abstracted from solution was noted to be independent of the pH of the solution in the range from 6 to 10 pH units, above $\text{pH}\text{=10}$ a decrease in the abstraction was observed.
