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 Adsorption Processes for Water Treatment

Download or read book Adsorption Processes for Water Treatment written by Samuel D. Faust and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adsorption Processes for Water Treatment discusses the application of adsorption in water purification. The book is comprised of 10 chapters that detail the carbon and resin adsorptive processes for potable water treatment. The text first covers the elements of surface chemistry and then proceeds to discussing adsorption models. Chapter 3 tackles the kinetics of adsorption, while Chapter 4 deals with batch systems and fixed fluid beds. Next, the book talks about the physical and chemical properties of carbon. The next two chapters discuss the adsorption of organic compounds and the removal of inorganic compounds, respectively. The eighth chapter presents operational, pilot plant, and case studies. Chapter 9 discusses the biological activated carbon treatment of drinking water, and Chapter 10 covers the adsorption of macroreticular resins. The book will be of great use to both researchers and professionals involved in the research and development of water treatment process.

Book Marine Anthropogenic Litter

Download or read book Marine Anthropogenic Litter written by Melanie Bergmann and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes how man-made litter, primarily plastic, has spread into the remotest parts of the oceans and covers all aspects of this pollution problem from the impacts on wildlife and human health to socio-economic and political issues. Marine litter is a prime threat to marine wildlife, habitats and food webs worldwide. The book illustrates how advanced technologies from deep-sea research, microbiology and mathematic modelling as well as classic beach litter counts by volunteers contributed to the broad awareness of marine litter as a problem of global significance. The authors summarise more than five decades of marine litter research, which receives growing attention after the recent discovery of great oceanic garbage patches and the ubiquity of microscopic plastic particles in marine organisms and habitats. In 16 chapters, authors from all over the world have created a universal view on the diverse field of marine litter pollution, the biological impacts, dedicated research activities, and the various national and international legislative efforts to combat this environmental problem. They recommend future research directions necessary for a comprehensive understanding of this environmental issue and the development of efficient management strategies. This book addresses scientists, and it provides a solid knowledge base for policy makers, NGOs, and the broader public.
