Contamination of water due to bromate is a severe health hazard. The aim of the present study was to remove bromate from water using a crosslinked polystyrene based strongly basic anion exchange resin De‐Acidite FF‐IP. Batch experiments were performed to study the influence of various experimental parameters such as effect of pH, contact time, temperature, and effect of competing anions on bromate removal by De‐Acidite FF‐IP resin. At optimum parameters, the removal rate of bromate was very fast and 90% removal took place in 5 min and equilibrium was established within 10 min. The presence of competitive anions reduced the bromate adsorption in the order of Cl? > F? > CO > SO > NO > PO. The practical utility of this resin has been demonstrated by removing bromate in some of the commercial bottled water from Saudi Arabia. The level of bromate was determined using a very sensitive, precise and rapid method based on ultra‐performance liquid chromatography‐tendem mass spectrometry (UPLC‐MS/MS). 相似文献

In recent years, the need for safe and economical methods to eliminate heavy metals from contaminated waters has necessitated research on the production of low-cost alternatives to commercially available activated carbon. In the present work, in order to enhance the removal of heavy metals from contaminated water, Zizyphus vulgaris wastes were modified chemically to produce an adsorbent rich in carboxylic groups to enhance the removal of heavy metals from contaminated water. Adsorption of Zn(II) ions on the produced adsorbent was then optimized. The optimal ratio for esterification involved the treatment of Z. vulgaris wastes (1 g) with 0.0037 mmol malic acid in the presence of a very small amount of water for 2 h at 140 °C. The maximum values for adsorption capacity, q max, were 28.7 and 164.6 mg/g on native and modified Z. vulgaris wastes, respectively, at pH 5 and 30 °C with a contact time 2 h and an initial metal ion concentration of 400 mg/L. The equilibrium data were well fitted by the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models and demonstrated the significant capacity for Z. vulgaris wastes in the removal of Zn(II) ions from aqueous solutions. 相似文献

Concentrations of lead (Pb) in domestic water and blood plasma in the Olya and Al-Batha regions of Riyadh City, Saudi Arabia were correlated (r 2?=?0.03, p?<?0.0072 and r 2?=?0.37, p?<?0.00092, respectively). Greater concentrations of Pb in domestic water of Olya and Al-Batha (0.0119 and 0.03 mg/l, respectively) were greater than concentrations of Pb in bottled water and was also greater than the concentration of 0.01 mg Pb/l recommended by both the World Health Organization US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). In Al-Batha, 52.2 % of the population had concentrations of Pb in blood that exceeded 10 μg Pb/dl, which is the concentration used by USEPA to classify people as being at risk from effects of Pb. In Al-Batha, 17.5 and 22.5 % of the population exceeded 20–40 and >40 μg Pb/dl, respectively. In Olya, 37 and 10 % of the population had concentrations of Pb in blood that exceeded 10 and 20–40 μg Pb/dl, respectively, while none of the concentrations of PB exceeded 40 μg Pb/dl. 相似文献

A portion of an unconfined alluvial aquifer located in the Padana Plain (Italy) was characterized following an integrated
hydro-geophysical approach. Initially an electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) survey was employed to localize the boundaries
of a modest paleo-channel body and to design the installation of a groundwater monitoring network. Multilevel slug-tests were
performed to estimate the aquifer’s saturated hydraulic conductivities. Determined permeability values together with electrical
resistivity data were correlated. The correlation resulted in a site specific bi-logarithmic linear relationship. Based on
this relationship, punctually determined hydraulic conductivities were spatially extended over the studied flow domain. Finally,
continuously measured piezometric heads were used to calibrate a 3D flow model. Sensitivity analysis was performed to confirm
the reliability of the reconstructed permeability field, as well as, to assess the minimum number of direct measurements needed
to safely characterize the selected aquifer portion. The integration of the ERT survey results with the classical hydrogeological
tests can be conveniently applied to constrain the permeability field during flow model calibration. Although the applicability
of the determined relationship is site specific, the followed procedure is useful especially when there is a need to optimize
the available resources and in case of small-scale pilot studies. 相似文献

This work aimed to investigate the adsorption characteristics, both kinetically and thermodynamically, of Cu(II) and Pb(II) removal from aqueous solutions onto mixed-waste activated carbon, as well as to study the competitive behavior found in mixed heavy metal solution systems. This study shows that activated carbon prepared from mixed waste is an effective adsorbent for the removal of Cu(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions, with the aim of detoxifying industrial effluents before their safe disposal onto water surfaces. The adsorption process was characterized in terms of kinetic and thermodynamic studies. In addition, the influence of presence of Cu(II) and Pb(II) in a competitive system was investigated. The results showed that the maximum adsorption capacities were gained at a pH of 6 with a contact time of 180 min, a metal solution concentration of 300 ppm, and an adsorbent dose of 0.3 g/L. The adsorption process was found to follow a pseudo-first-order kinetic model. Thermodynamic parameters such as ΔG o, ΔH o, and ΔS o showed that the sorption process was spontaneous and endothermic in nature. A competitive study demonstrated the applicability of mixed-waste activated carbon to adsorb Cu(II) and Pb(II) from a solution of mixed metals. In addition, the adsorption capacity was found to be as effective as other adsorbents reported in the literature. The developed adsorptive removal procedure was applied for treatment of real wastewater samples and showed high removal efficiency. 相似文献

Uranium mineralizations occur and form in a broad range of geologic setting and age, including magmatic to surfacial conditions, and there are numerous controls on their transportation and deposition, such as redox, pH, ligand concentration, complexation, and temperature. These temporal and spatial variations have caused a range of ore deposit mineral assemblages. Consequently, understanding their conditions of formation is still in its infancy. This research reports rare earth elements (REE) and trace elements of fluorite associated with hexavalent uranium mineralizations and tests of genetic models for the deposits. These data contribute to a better understanding of the variables controlling fluorite formation and uranium ore composition through understanding the evolution of these ore-forming hydrothermal systems. Fluorite in Gabal Gattar granite occurs as disseminations and/or thin veinlets and encrustations filling some uranium mineralized fissures and fractures along the northern margin of host granite mass. In the U-poor samples, fluorite forms well-developed large crystals that are commonly zoned. The zones are represented by alternating colorless and violet zones, and the outer zones are frequently dark violet. In the U-rich samples, fluorite is usually anhedral, unzoned, and has a dark violet color. The results of analysis of REE and trace element contents of fluorites using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry indicate that total REE in the anhedral unzoned fluorite are elevated compared to the well developed zoned fluorite, and also total REE in dark violet zones of zoned fluorite are elevated with respect to the colorless zones. The fluorites and host granite are generally characterized by strongly negative Eu anomalies and slightly negative or chondritic Ce anomalies. Accordingly, REE patterns of the fluorite and host granite are roughly alike, indicating that the source of REE and trace elements of hydrothermal fluids is the host granite leached by fluids. Y/Y*, Ce/Ce,* and Eu/Eu* patterns show that fluorite clearly records the compositional evolution of the hydrothermal solutions that have transferred trace and REE from host granite during the fluid–wall rocks interactions. The high uranium contents of fluorite in Gabal Gattar granite suggest that parent fluids bearing fluorine have interacted with host granite to leach uranium from the accessory minerals of granite and tetravalent uranium minerals in reduced or weakly oxidized zones. 相似文献
