Simultaneous removal of arsenic and antimony from mining wastewater using granular TiO2: Batch and field column studies

Coexisting arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb) in mining wastewater is a common and great concern. On-site simultaneous removal of As and Sb from mining wastewater was achieved by using a reusable granular TiO₂ column in this study. To evaluate the accuracy of the scale-up procedure, As and Sb adsorption from wastewater was studied in both large (600 g TiO₂) and small columns (12 g TiO₂) based on the proportional diffusivity rapid small-scale column tests (PD-RSSCTs) design. The comparable As and Sb breakthrough curves obtained from small and large columns confirmed the accuracy of the PD-RSSCT theory in the design of large-scale columns. Meanwhile, the consistent As and Sb adsorption results from batch and column experiments suggested that TiO₂ adsorption for As and Sb can be predicted from bench-scale tests. Charge distribution multi-site complexation (CD-MUSIC) and one-dimensional transport modeling integrated in the PHREEQC program were performed to study the adsorption behaviors of As and Sb on the TiO₂ surface. Coexisting ions, such as Ca^2 +, Mg^2 +, and Si^4 +, play an important role in As and Sb adsorption, and the breakthrough curves were well simulated after considering the compound ion effects. The results from this study highlight the surface reactions of As and Sb on TiO₂ and provide a practical way for on-site remediation of industrial wastewater.     

Removal of arsenate with hydrous ferric oxide coprecipitation：Effect of humic acid

Insights from the adverse effect of humic acid(HA) on arsenate removal with hydrous ferric oxide(HFO) coprecipitation can further our understanding of the fate of As(V) in water treatment process. The motivation of our study is to explore the competitive adsorption mechanisms of humic acid and As(V) on HFO on the molecular scale. Multiple complementary techniques were used including macroscopic adsorption experiments, surface enhanced Raman scattering(SERS), extended X-ray absorption fine structure(EXAFS) spectroscopy, flow-cell attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared(ATR-FTIR) measurement, and charge distribution multisite complexation(CDMUSIC) modeling. The As(V) removal efficiency was reduced from over 95% to about 10% with the increasing HA concentration to 25 times of As(V) mass concentration. The SERS analysis excluded the HA-As(V) complex formation. The EXAFS results indicate that As(V) formed bidentate binuclear surface complexes in the presence of HA as evidenced by an As-Fe distance of 3.26–3.31 ?. The in situ ATR-FTIR measurements show that As(V) replaces surface hydroxyl groups and forms innersphere complex. High concentrations of HA may physically block the surface sites and inhibit the As(V) access. The adsorption of As(V) and HA decreased the point of zero charge of HFO from 7.8 to 5.8 and 6.3, respectively. The CD-MUSIC model described the zeta potential curves and adsorption edges of As(V) and HA reasonably well.     

TiO2/Ag modified penta-bismuth hepta-oxide nitrate and its adsorption performance for azo dye removal

A modified hydrophilic penta-bismuth hepta-oxide nitrate (Bi₅O₇NO₃) surface was synthesized via a precipitation method using TiO₂ and Ag as modified agents. The synthesized product was characterized by different analytical techniques. The removal efficiency was evaluated using mono-and di-sulphonated azo dyes as model pollutants. Different kinetic, isotherm and diffusion models were chosen to describe the adsorption process. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results revealed no noticeable differences in the chemical states of modified adsorbent when compared to pure Bi₅O₇NO₃;however, the presence of hydrophilic centres such as TiO₂ and Ag developed positively charged surface groups and improved its adsorption performance to a wide range of azo dyes. Dyes removal was found to be a function of adsorbent dosage, initial dye concentration, solution pH and temperature. The reduction of Langmuir 1,2-mixed order kinetics to the second or first-order kinetics could be successfully used to describe the adsorption of dyes onto the modified adsorbent. Mass transfer can be described by intra-particle diffusion at a certain stage, but it was not the rate limiting step that controlled the adsorption process. Homogenous behavior of adsorbent surface can be explored by applying Langmuir isotherm to fit the adsorption data.     

Recent progress of arsenic adsorption on TiO2 in the presence of coexisting ions: A review

Arsenic (As)-contaminated wastewater and groundwater pose a pressing environmental issue and worldwide concern. Adsorption of As using TiO₂ materials, in combination with filtration, introduces a promising technology for the treatment of As-contaminated water. This review presents an overview on the recent progress of the application of TiO₂ for removal of As from wastewater and groundwater. The main focus is on the following three pressing issues that limit the field applications of TiO₂ for As removal: coexisting ions, simulation of breakthrough curves, and regeneration and reuse of spent TiO₂ materials. We first examined how the coexisting ions in water, especially high concentrations of cations in industrial wastewater, affect the efficacy of As removal using the TiO₂ materials. We then discussed As breakthrough curves and the effect of compounded ions on the breakthrough curves. We successfully simulated the breakthrough curves by PHREEQC after integrating the CD-MUSIC model. We further discussed challenges facing the regeneration and reuse of TiO₂ media for practical applications. We offer our perspectives on remaining issues and future research needs.

吸附性能和光生载流子的分离效率是决定光催化降解抗生素的主要因素.为提高介孔TiO_2单晶(MSCs)的吸附性能和光生载流子的分离效率,在MSCs内部构建SiO_2纳米颗粒吸附结构.同时,利用表面光电压谱、氮气等温吸附-脱附、X射线衍射等研究其结构特性.最后,以盐酸四环素为抗生素代表,通过控制SiO_2纳米颗粒比表面积,考察SiO_2对复合材料吸附及光催化性能的影响.结果表明,SiO_2纳米颗粒与TiO_2单晶复合显著提高了材料的吸附性能,表面保护蚀刻进一步提升了材料的比表面积.实验条件下,高比表面积SiO_2-TiO_2单晶复合材料(KSiO_2@TiO_2)对盐酸四环素的平衡吸附量、降解效率、降解速率常数和矿化率分别达到了0.96 mg·g-1、90.2%、0.0079 min-1、54.4%,分别是MSCs的4.4、1.5、2.6和3.1倍.副产物分析表明,SiO_2复合介孔单晶材料更易将盐酸四环素降解为小分子物质.     

Ag–AgBr/TiO2/RGO nanocomposite: Synthesis, characterization, photocatalytic activity and aggregation evaluation

Ag–AgBr/TiO_2 supported on reduced graphene oxide(Ag–AgBr/TiO_2/RGO) with different mass ratios of grapheme oxide(GO) to TiO_2 were synthesized via a facile solvothermal-photo reduction method. Compared to the single-, two-and three-component nanocomposites,the four-component nanocomposite, Ag–AgBr/TiO_2/RGO-1 with mass ratio of GO to TiO_2at 1%, exhibited a much higher photocatalytic activity for the degradation of penicillin G(PG)under white light-emitting diode(LED-W) irradiation. The PG degradation efficiency increased with the increase of mass ratio of GO to TiO_2 from 0.2% to 1%, then it decreased with the increase of mass ratio of GO to TiO_2 from 1% to 5%. The zeta potentials of RGO-nanocomposites became more negative with the presence of humic acid(HA) due to the negatively charged HA adsorption, resulting in the shift of points of zero charge to lower values of pH. The aggregations of nanocomposites were more significant due to the bridging effect of HA. Furthermore, the aggregated particle sizes were larger for RGO-nanocomposites compared to other nanoparticles, due to the bindings of the carboxylic and phenolic functional groups in HA with the oxygen-containing functional groups in the RGO-nanocomposites.The microfiltration(MF) membrane was effective for the nanocomposites separation. In the continuous flow through submerged membrane photoreactor(sMPR) system, backwashing operation could efficiently reduce membrane fouling and recover TiO_2, and thus indirectly facilitate the PG removal.     

纳米二氧化钛光催化转化甲基砷的研究

二甲基胂酸(DMA)和一甲基胂酸(MMA)是环境中甲基砷的主要种类.由于农药滥用及含砷废水的释放等,严重危害人类健康.本文应用实验室人工合成纳米TiO2研究了甲基砷(DMA和MMA)光催化转化过程,考察了光照和pH对光催化转化过程的影响,通过测定液相及固相中的不同化学形态,解析光催化转化产物.结果表明:UV光照下,相比自然光时,纳米TiO2对DMA和MMA的去除率在不同pH条件下均有提高.pH值的影响为:在低pH条件(pH为3、5)下去除率高,而在高pH条件(pH为7、9)下去除率低,这主要是取决于纳米TiO2的等电点(pHpzc=5.8).转化产物解析结果表明:无光条件下,DMA和MMA均不发生转化;在自然光条件下,纳米TiO2催化少量DMA和MMA发生一步转化,分别形成MMA和As(V);在紫外光条件下,纳米TiO2能够催化几乎全部的DMA和MMA彻底转化,形成As(V).因此,在UV光下,纳米TiO2能够催化DMA和MMA转化为As(V),同时此纳米TiO2对As(V)有较强的吸附能力,所以,UV光照能够显著提高纳米TiO2对DMA和MMA的去除率.
