Book Understanding Production and Regeneration Of Hybrid Fiber Ferric Hydroxide Adsorbents For Arsenic Removal From Drinking Water

Download or read book Understanding Production and Regeneration Of Hybrid Fiber Ferric Hydroxide Adsorbents For Arsenic Removal From Drinking Water written by Binod Chaudhary and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drinking water contaminated with arsenic is a worldwide problem, especially in developing nations. The research presented in this dissertation describes two major goals: development of hybrid homopolymer polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based sorbents for arsenate removal from drinking water and understanding regeneration of arsenate from ferric hydroxide-based adsorbents. The homopolymer PAN fiber was chemically modified to introduce functional groups using NaOH and hydrazine hydrate (HH) separately, or in combination of both. The modified fibers were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and ion exchange measurements. The ferric hydroxides were impregnated onto functionalized fibers using two iron loading procedures. The best arsenate removal performance was obtained using the simplest pretreatment procedure of soaking in 10% NaOH at 95 °C for ninety min, followed by precipitation coating of ferric hydroxide. This suggests that adsorbents based on a low-cost PAN fabric may be produced in developing areas of the world where commercial products may not be available. A density functional theory (DFT) molecular modeling was used to compare free energies of reactions and activation barriers in the formation of arsenate-ferric hydroxide complexes. Slow kinetics associated with arsenate adsorption and desorption attributed to the high activation barriers in forming and breaking bonds with the ferric hydroxides. Another aspect of regeneration study focused on the effects of underlying properties of the ferric hydroxides-loaded adsorbents on arsenate recovery. The arsenate loaded ferric hydroxide adsorbent containing no or weak base functionalities can be regenerated using NaOH, while addition of NaCl to NaOH solution is required for same recovery of arsenate from the adsorbents containing strong base anion exchange functionalities. Moreover, the irreversible fraction of arsenate on the adsorbent can be reduced by increasing the concentration of NaOH. Thus, understanding arsenate desorption kinetics and effects of support properties of ferric hydroxide-based adsorbents are important for environmental fate of arsenate and in designing adsorption systems for removing arsenate from potable water.

Book Adsorptive Iron Removal from Groundwater

Download or read book Adsorptive Iron Removal from Groundwater written by Sharoz Kumar Sharma and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-05-30 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pilot study conducted at the Gilze water treatment plant of Water Supply North West Brabant demonstrated that adsorptive filtration has several potential advantages over floc filtration, namely: longer filter runs due to slower head loss development; better filtrate quality; shorter ripening time; and less backwash water use. In existing groundwater treatment plants, the high iron (II) adsorption capacity of the iron oxide coated filter media makes it potentially possible to switch the governing mode of operation from floc filtration to adsorptive filtration. To achieve this two options can be considered: iron (II) adsorption under anoxic conditions followed by oxidation with oxygen-rich water; and adsorption of iron (II) in the presence of oxygen and simultaneous oxidation. The first option might be attractive specifically when two filtration steps are available.

Book Adsorptive Removal of Heavy Metals from Groundwater by Iron Oxide Based Adsorbents

Download or read book Adsorptive Removal of Heavy Metals from Groundwater by Iron Oxide Based Adsorbents written by Valentine Uwamariya and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-03-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In general, groundwater is a preferred source of drinking water because of its convenient availability and its constant and good quality. However this source is vulnerable to contamination by several substances. Acceptable quality limits relative to micropollutant contents in drinking water are becoming increasingly lower and efficient elimination treatment processes are being implemented in order to meet these requirements. Metals contaminants at low concentration are difficult to remove from water. Chemical precipitation and other methods become inefficient when contaminants are present in trace concentrations and the process of adsorption is one of the few alternatives available for such situations. This book describes the adsorption method in the removal of selected heavy metals present as cations (Cd2+, Cu2+ and Pb2+) or oxyanions (Cr(VI) and As(V)) using iron oxide coated sand (IOCS) and granular ferric hydroxide (GFH). The effects of pH, natural organic matter (fulvic acid (FA)) and interfering ions (PO43-, Ca2+) on the adsorption efficiency were also assessed. The sorption reactions that take place at the surface of the adsorbent were also described through the surface complexation modelling for Cd2+, Cu2+ and Pb2+ adsorption. Batch adsorption tests and rapid small scale column tests (RSST) were used as laboratory methods.

Book Development and Evaluation of Innovative Iron containing Porous Carbon Adsorbents for Arsenic Removal

Download or read book Development and Evaluation of Innovative Iron containing Porous Carbon Adsorbents for Arsenic Removal written by Zhimang Gu and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two types of carbon based iron-containing adsorbents, As-GAC and FeOMC, were developed for arsenic removal from drinking water in this dissertation. Granular activated carbon-based iron-containing adsorbents (As-GAC) was developed by primarily using GAC as a supporting medium for ferric iron that was impregnated by ferrous chloride (FeCl2) treatment, followed by chemical oxidation. An ordered nano-structured adsorbent, iron-containing ordered mesoporous carbon (FeOMC) was synthesized and developed by involving in synthesis of ordered silica template SBA-15, in situ polymerization of mono acrylic acid (AA) in the silica template followed by carbonization and template removal to obtain ordered mesoporous carbon (OMC), and iron impregnation. Adsorbents were developed by optimizing the preparation conditions, including initial Fe concentration, oxidant type and dosage, and AC or OMC types, etc. and they were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and nitrogen adsorption-desorption analyses, etc. The ability of adsorbents for arsenic removal was evaluated by both batch and column studies. Effects of ionic strength, pH, and other competing constituents on the arsenic removal were also studied in batch systems. Redox transformation and surface characteristics of carbon based adsorbents were investigated. Adsorption of arsenic on adsorbents was modeled by the surface complexation model.
