Book Removal of Emerging Contaminants from Aqueous Solutions by Using Polymeric Resins

Download or read book Removal of Emerging Contaminants from Aqueous Solutions by Using Polymeric Resins written by Dan Liu and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The emerging contaminants (ECs) such as estrogen hormones, perfluorinated compounds (PFCs), bisphenol A (BPA) and 1, 4-dioxane have been detected in natural water bodies at a noticeable level worldwide. The presence of ECs in the aquatic environment can pose potential threats to aquatic organisms as well as human world. Ion-exchange is a highly efficient technology for the removal of heavy metal ions and natural organic materials (NOMs) due to the nature of exchanging similar charged ions. However, this technology has not been explored for removing ECs. In this study, four categories of ECs: estrogen hormones (12), perfluorinated compounds (10), bisphenol A and 1, 4-dioxane were used as model contaminants. The adsorption of each category of ECs onto various types of polymeric resins (MN100, MN200, A530E, A532E and C115) was investigated. The removal of ECs was tested under batch and column mode. The effects of pH, resin dosage, and contact time on the removal of ECs were studied in batch mode; isotherm and kinetics models were applied to fit the experimental data. Column experiments were conducted to verify the practicability of the polymeric resins. Adsorption results have shown that both MN100 and MN200 resins could efficiently remove estrogen hormones mixture (more than 95%), and bisphenol A (more than 80%) with the initial concentration of 100 ìg/L; A532E and A530E could remove perfuorinated compounds mixture (more than 99%) with the initial concentration of 100 ìg/L. As pH increased from 9 to 11, the adsorption capacity onto polymeric resins decreased dramatically for estrogen hormones such as 17á-ethinylestradiol, estriol, 17â-estradiol, 17á-estradiol, estrone, 17á-dihydroequilin and equilin as well as bisphenol A. The adsorption of estrogen hormones and bisphenol A onto MN100 and MN200 resins reached the equilibrium within 24 hours, whereas the adsorption of perfluorinated compounds onto A532E and A530E reached the equilibrium within 8 hours. It was also observed that the adsorption of PFCs largely depends on the C-C chain length. PFCs with longer chain yielded lower adsorption efficiency onto the ion-exchange resins A532E and A530E. Adding salinity decreased the first-order rate constants for the adsorption of bisphenol A onto MN100 and MN200 resins. Fixed-bed column experiment results with estrogen hormones mixtures confirmed that the polymeric resins were good candidates in the removal of estrogen hormones. Trimegestone was the first compound detected in the effluent in the column test while 17â-estradiol, 17á-estradiol were the last. 80% of the exhausted resins (MN100 and MN200) by bisphenol A were regenerated by using pure methanol as regeneration solution. Polymeric resins were not effectively removing 1, 4-dioxane from the aqueous solution.

Book Conducting Polymers for Electrochemically Mediated Separations

Download or read book Conducting Polymers for Electrochemically Mediated Separations written by Yinying Ren and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many conventional separation technologies are limited by high energy costs, generation of chemical wastes, and lack of molecular selectivity. This thesis is motivated to develop novel separation techniques that overcome the aforementioned drawbacks for the separation of neutral organic compounds from aqueous solutions. Adsorption is one of the most widely adopted technologies for the intended task. Polymeric adsorbents have shown great potential for replacing activated carbon for removing a wide range of toxic organic pollutants from wastewater streams since they do not suffer from costly regeneration needs and high attrition rates. An electrochemically regenerable polymeric adsorbent based on an intrinsically conducting polymer, polypyrrole (PPy), doped with anionic surfactant dioctylsulfosuccinate (AOT), denoted PPy(AOT), is developed for mitigating organic pollutants in wastewater. Highly porous PPy(AOT) can be synthesized using a facile electropolymerization protocol, and has an adsorption capacity of greater than 570 mg pollutant/g polymer in its superhydrophobic oxidized state. The hydrophobicity of PPy(AOT) and hence its affinity for organics can be modulated electrochemically through the reorientation of AOT dopants, which can be exploited to regenerate the adsorbent and use it repeatedly for multiple adsorption/desorption cycles. A combined density functional theory and molecular dynamics approach was used to study the interactions between the adsorbed organic molecules and the surfactant-doped conducting polymer adsorbent, and to elucidate the mechanism of electrochemical modulations of hydrophobicity and affinity of the sorbent. The AOT doped polypyrrole (PPy(AOT)) and a polyvinylferrocene/polypyrrole hybrid (PVF-PPy) have complementary hydrophobicity tunability in response to electrochemical modulations: both materials are hydrophobic in their respective neutral states, exhibiting high affinities towards organics; upon application of a mild potential to oxidize PVF-PPy and reduce PPy(AOT), they can be simultaneously rendered hydrophilic, thereby driving desorption of organics and regeneration of the materials. Therefore, the two materials form an attractive pair for an asymmetric electrode system to work in tandem. The asymmetric system can be used in a cyclic fashion, through repeated application of a small potential (close to 0 V) to program the capture of organics from a large volume of feed solution, and a higher potential (above 0.9 V) to stimulate the release of the adsorbed organics into a small volume of desorption solution. The redox-responsive electrode system can be applied for remediation of organic pollution in wastewater as well as recovery of organic products from reaction mixtures. The asymmetric configuration has multiple benefits, including suppression of water parasitic reactions, high energetic efficiency, and selectivity for target organic species. The ability to modulate the hydrophobicity of conducting polymers and physicochemical insights about the material are significant for developing broader applications in drug delivery, sensing, self-cleaning surfaces, microfluidics, and artificial muscles.
