The purpose of this study was to determine the copper (Cu) biosorption capacities of several agricultural wastes from aqueous solutions. Samples of agricultural wastes were tested unaltered and after hydrochloric acid (HCl) treatment. Additional parameters tested include sample dose, contact time, particle size, mixing temperature, and the concentrations and pH of the Cu solutions. Desorption studies were performed to determine if the removed Cu could be recovered. In addition, tests were conducted to determine if the agricultural waste samples (AWS) could be reused for additional Cu biosorption cycles. The results of this study demonstrate a wide range of Cu biosorption proficiencies ranging from 0% to 100% removal. The parameters that resulted in higher Cu removal include higher pH and lower Cu solution concentration. Desorption results showed a 58% to 86% Cu recovery rate. Three of the five reused AWS were effective at removing Cu during subsequent trials. Therefore, these AWS types can be reused for additional Cu biosorption cycles. Hence, it is possible that using those AWS for metal treatment could reduce hazardous waste disposal inefficiencies and costs by avoiding disposing of spent AWS following each Cu biosorption cycle. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the hexavalent chromium (CrVI) biosorption capacities of several agricultural wastes from aqueous solutions. Samples were tested unaltered and after hydrochloric acid (HCl) treatment. Additional parameters tested include sample dose, contact time, particle size, mixing temperature, and the concentrations and pH of the CrVI solutions. Desorption studies were performed to determine if the removed CrVI could be recovered. In addition, tests were conducted to determine if the agricultural waste samples (AWS) could be reused for additional CrVI biosorption cycles. The results of this study demonstrate a wide range of CrVI biosorption proficiencies ranging from 13 to 98 percent removal. The parameters that resulted in higher CrVI removal include HCl treatment, higher sample dose, lower CrVI solution concentration, and lower mixing temperature. Desorption results showed an 8 to 25 percent CrVI recovery rate. Reused AWS were effective at removing CrVI during subsequent trials. Therefore, all AWS can be reused for additional CrVI biosorption cycles. Hence, these could reduce hazardous waste disposal inefficiencies and costs by avoiding disposing of spent AWS following each CrVI biosorption cycle. 相似文献

Sunflower residue, an agricultural waste material for the removal of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) from aqueous solutions were investigated using a batch method. Adsorbent was prepared by washing sunflower residue with deionized water until the effluent was colorless. Batch mode experiments were carried out as a function of solution pH, adsorbent dosage, initial concentration and contact time. The results indicated that the adsorbent showed good sorption potential and maximum metal removal was observed at pH 5. Within 150 min of operation about 97 and 87 % of Pb and Cd ions were removed from the solutions, respectively. Lead and Cd sorption curves were well fitted to the modified two-site Langmuir model. The adsorption capacities for Pb and Cd at optimum conditions were 182 and 70 mg g?1, respectively. The kinetics of Pb and Cd adsorption from aqueous solutions were analyzed by fitting the experimental data to a pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the rate constant was found to be 8.42 × 10?2 and 8.95 × 10?2 g mg?1 min?1 for Cd and Pb, respectively. The results revealed that sunflower can adsorb considerable amount of Pb and Cd ions and thus could be an economical method for the removal of Pb and Cd from aqueous systems. 相似文献

Biosorption of heavy metals is an innovative and alternative technology to remove these pollutants from aqueous solutions using inactive and dead biomasses such as agricultural and industrial wastes, algae and bacteria. In this study olive mill solid residue was used as heavy metal adsorbent material for its wide availability as agricultural waste and also for its cellulosic matrix, rich of potential metal binding active sites. Preliminary studies concerned with the removal of different heavy metals (Hg, Pb, Cu, Zn and Cd), the effect of pre-treatments by water and n-hexane and the regeneration possibility. Olive mill solid residue resulted able to remove heavy metals from aqueous solutions with an affinity series reflecting the hydrolytic properties of the metallic ions, but also a particular affinity for copper. It can be supposed that biosorption phenomenon occur by a general ion exchange mechanism combined with a specific complexation reaction for copper ions. Water pre-treatment is sufficient to reduce COD release in the effluent according to the law limit, while n-hexane pre-treatment strongly reduces also the adsorption properties of this material. Experimental isotherms obtained under different operating conditions were fitted using a non linear regression method for the estimation of the Langmuir parameters. Moreover a simple Scatchard plot analysis was performed for a preliminary investigation of the active sites, showing the presence of two different site affinities depending on the metal concentration, according to the previous hypothesis of two kinds of uptake mechanisms for copper biosorption. Regeneration tests gave good results in terms of yield of regeneration and also concentration ratios. 相似文献

In order to determine the optimal dosage and type of coagulant for the physico-chemical treatment of leachate from the sanitary landfill of Merida, Mexico, a total of 864 jar tests were performed. Four metallic coagulants (ferric chloride, ferric sulphate, aluminium polychloride and aluminium sulphate) with doses ranging between 50 and 300 mg L(-1) and two polyelectrolytes (high-density anionic and cationic reagents) with doses from 2 to 12 mg L(-1) were tested. Neither an adequate type of coagulant nor an optimal dose could be found. The removal of contaminants was measured as total and dissolved chemical oxygen demand (COD). Soluble COD removal efficiencies were low, from 0 to 47%, with a 4% average value only. These low values of organic material removal were attributed to the particular characteristics of the Merida landfill leachate (low suspended solids concentration), so even with sweep-floc coagulation (300 mg L(-1) dose) only low COD removal efficiencies were obtained. A study of the suspended particle size distribution of the leachate was conducted in order to explain the poor performance. The particle size distribution ranged from 0.375 to 948.2 microm, with an average value of 22.97 microm. In a second step the optimal pH for physico-chemical treatment of these leachates was determined. Finally a greater than 90% removal of organic material, measured as suspended COD, was obtained at pH 2, which was considered as the optimal value. 相似文献

Spent coagulant in water supply plant sludge was extracted with H2SO4 and the efficiency of the reused coagulant was studied. The optimum pH values for coagulant extraction and clarification
with the reused coagulant were 3.0–4.0 and about 6, respectively. In treating raw influent obtained from a sewage treatment
plant and wastewater from a coastal landfill site, the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD), total nitrogen, and total
phosphorous with the recovered coagulant was higher than that with commercial aluminum sulfate or polyaluminum chloride. In
addition, the sludge settling properties, the extra sludge mass formation, the supernatant quality, and the cost of reagents
were also studied. The coagulant recovered from water supply plant sludge by H2SO4 extraction could be successfully reused for the clarification of domestic and food industry wastewaters. 相似文献

Batch experiments were conducted to study the biosorption of Malachite Green (MG) onto polylactide (PLA)/spent brewery grains (SBGs) films. Films were prepared by solvent-casting method using dichloromethane. Effects of contact time, pH, salt concentration, and optimal experimental condition was evaluated. At pH 6.89 and low salt concentration, Malachite Green was removed effectively. The isotherm data fitted the Freundlich model with 0.969 R2 value and 0.738 slope implying chemisorptions process. The biosorption process followed pseudo-second order kinetics with calculated adsorption capacity at equilibrium (qe) of 0.572?mg/g at 23?°C. The investigation showed that PLA/SBGs films are effective in dye removal from textile, paper and leather industries effluents. 相似文献

This paper was focused on the biosorption of phosphate ions from aqueous solution onto the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) modified multi-component biosorbent composed of pine, oak, hornbeam and fir sawdust biomasses. A series of batch tests were conducted and the effects of solution pH, ion concentration, quantity of biosorbent and contact time on the bioremoval of phosphate ions were investigated. The biosorption data of kinetic and equilibrium were modeled using various mathematical equations. The phosphate removal increased with increased ion concentration and decreased with increased pH and biosorbent quantity values. The equilibrium state was reached within 120 min of exposure time. The process kinetics was best described by Elovich model while the isotherm data of biosorption best obeyed Freundlich equation. The obtained results revealed that the use of CTAB modified mix sawdust biosorbent presented interesting options for bioremediation of contaminated environments and waste recycling (as nutrient fertilizer and compost material). 相似文献

Biosorption potential of new low cost biosorbent prepared from vegetable waste, composed of 1:1 mixture of potato and carrot peels for the removal of Ni(II) from aqueous solution was determined. The residual metallic ion concentrations were determined using an atomic absorption spectrophotometric technique (AAS). Batch experiments were conducted to optimize parameters such as initial pH, temperature, contact time, initial metal ion concentration and biosorbent dose and the results showed that maximum adsorption of Nickel (79.32 %) occurs when the contents were stirred for 75 min with 3.0 g of biosorbent at 35 °C and pH 4. Kinetic studies of the reaction revealed that it follows a pseudo-second order reaction. The experimental results were analyzed in terms of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The Langmuir isotherm model fits well to data of Ni(II) biosorption by the prepared biomass as compared to the model of Freundlich. Both neat and Ni loaded biosorbent samples were analyzed by AAS using a dry ashing process in a furnace and also by use of a FT-IR spectrophotometer and an X-Ray florescence spectrometer in order to confirm the biosorption of Ni(II) and the results have revealed that a significant amount of Ni is present in the spent biosorbent. 相似文献

The possibility of in situ removal of heavy metals found in leachate generated at municipal solid waste landfills was studied through amendment of daily cover soil. Kahrizak landfill, which receives the waste generated at Tehran, was selected as the source of leachate and soil samples. Manganese and zinc were selected in this study. The soil sample taken from the Kahrizak site contained about 17% clay, which was presumed to have significant capability for removing manganese and zinc. This capability was assumed to be enhanced further through the addition of lime and consequently to improve the potential for chemical precipitation of the selected metals. The in situ removal experiment was accomplished through a set of seven columns filled with the sampled soil with varying contents of lime (i.e., from 0% to 6% by dry weight). Fresh leachate of low pH was added to the columns on a daily basis. Concentrations of manganese and zinc were measured in the influent and effluent during 40 days when biological clogging resulted in a condition of almost no outflow in the columns. The results indicated a substantial increase in removal efficiency through the addition of lime to the daily cover soil. Desorption resulting from the low pH of fresh leachate occurs at later stages compared to the column with no lime addition. 相似文献

The potential for biosorption of Hg(II) ions from aqueous solutions using water hyacinth was studied. The effect of the retention period (0, 1, 3, 7, and 15 days), pH (3, 5, 7, and 9), initial concentration of Hg(II) ions (5, 10, and 15 mg/L), and organic loading rate (25, 50, and 75 percent) on biosorption were investigated. The physicochemical parameters were also analyzed at various concentrations of Hg(II) ions before and after treatment. The maximum biosorption rate was obtained at 15 days with the initial concentration of 10 mg/L at a pH of 7 and organic loading rate of 50 percent. The maximum biosorption capacity of both water hyacinth roots and shoots were 5.5 mg/L and 3.8 mg/L, respectively. The Hg(II) biosorption data were analyzed using the first‐ and second‐order kinetic models. Pseudo second‐order kinetics was considered the most appropriate model for predicting the biosorption capacity of both water hyacinth roots and shoots, and the modeled results were compared to the experimental results. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were used to evaluate the experimental data, and their constants were derived. Biosorption equilibrium data were best described by the Langmuir isotherm model followed by the Freundlich model. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

The removal of a mixture of heavy (toxic) metal cations (copper, nickeland zinc) from liquid effluents was investigated in this study at pilotscale, using counter-current contact mode. The innovative processinvolved the abstraction of metal ions onto fungal biosorbents, followedby the application of flotation for the subsequent solid/liquid separationof biomass particles. The ability of microorganisms to remove metal ionsfrom aqueous solutions is a well-known phenomenon. Nevertheless,engineering considerations are very important in decisions, concerningthe commercial future of biosorption and practical solutions are neededfor certain problems, such as the efficient post-separation ofmetal-loaded biomass. The two processes (flotation and biosorption) caneffectively operate in combination, in what it was termed biosorptiveflotation process. The sorbents may be recycled, after appropriate elutionof metals, as well as the treated (clean) water. 相似文献

The present work reported on the evaluation of the methylene blue dye biosorption property of Tremella fuciformis under different experimental conditions. Batch mode experiments were carried out using different experimental parameters such as initial pH, dye concentration, biosorbent amount, contact time and temperature. Four widely used kinetic models were used to elucidate the biosorption kinetics. And the kinetic analysis illustrated that the experimental data best followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Biosorption equilibrium was also investigated using four widely used isotherm models. The results indicated that the experimental equilibrium data fitted very well with Langmuir isotherm models. Thermodynamic analysis of biosorption processes was found to be feasibility, spontaneous and exothermic nature of MB biosorption. These results indicated that T. fuciformis would be a high effective and environmental friendly biosorbent for MB removal from aqueous solution. 相似文献

Effects of Ni(II) concentration, agitation time, temperature and pH on adsorption of Ni(II) on Fe(III)/Cr(III) hydroxide, a waste by-product from fertilizer industry, have been investigated. The percent adsorption increased from 55 to 69% with increase in temperature from 20 to 40°C and from 32 to 77% with increase in pH from 3.7 to 7.5 and from 38 to 79% with decrease in Ni(II) concentration from 100 to 25 mg/L. The equilibrium data fit well with the Langmuir isotherm and the adsorption capacity was found to be 21.0 mg/g at 30°C. Thermodynamic parameters such as free energy change (ΔG°), enthalpy change (ΔH°) and entropy change (ΔS°) were evaluated. The adsorption rate constant was higher at lower concentration of Ni(II) and at higher temperature. Desorption studies show that 70% of Ni(II) can be desorbed from the adsorbent at pH 4.0. The adsorbent was tested using nickel plating industry wastewater and the maximum percent removal was 97. 相似文献

Comparison of leaching characteristics of heavy metals in APC residue from an MSW incinerator using various extraction methods 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This study investigates four extraction methods (water extraction, toxicity characteristics leaching procedure (TCLP), modified TCLP with pH control, and sequential chemical extraction (SCE)), each representing different liquid-to-solid (L/S) ratios, pH controls, and types of leachant, and their effects on the leaching concentration of heavy metals in municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerator air pollution control (APC) residue. The results indicated that for extraction with distilled water, the heavy metal leaching concentration (mg/l) decreased with L/S ratio, but the amount of heavy metal released (AHMR), defined as the leached amount of heavy metals to the weight of the tested sample (mg/kg), increased with an increase in L/S ratio, in the range of 2-100. The results also showed that both the leaching concentration and the amount of released metals were strongly pH-dependent in the TCLP and modified TCLP tests. In the case of pHs lower than 6.5, the leaching concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn, and Cr decreased with an increase in pH. As pH increased higher than 6.5, Cr and Zn were almost insoluble. Meanwhile, Cd and Cu also showed a similar trend but at pHs of 8.5 and 7.5, respectively. Due to the nature of amphoteric elements, in the case of pHs higher than 7, the Pb leaching concentration increased with increasing pH. In modified TCLP tests with the pH value controlled at the same level as in the SCE test, the heavy metal speciation approached the extractable carbonate bound fraction by the SCE. Both amounts of targeted metals leached from the SCE and modified TCLP tests were much higher than those for the regular TCLP and water extraction tests. 相似文献

Micronutrient content and availability in composts may be affected by the addition of wood chips or tree bark as a bulking agent in the compost feedstock. In the first part of this study, micronutrient levels were assessed in bark and wood of poplar and willow clones in a short-rotation coppice. Large differences between species were observed in bark concentrations for Cd, Zn and Mn. In the second part of the study, we aimed to determine the effect of feedstock composition and composting on Cd, Zn and Mn concentrations and availability. By means of three composting experiments we examined the effect of (a) bark of different tree species, (b) the amount of bark, and (c) the use of bark versus wood chips. In general, compost characteristics such as pH, organic matter and nutrient content varied due to differences in feedstock mixture and composting process. During the composting process, the availability of Cd, Zn and Mn decreased, although the use of willow and poplar bark or wood chips resulted in elevated total Cd, Zn or Mn concentrations in the compost. Cd concentrations in some composts even exceeded legal criteria. Cd and Zn were mainly bound in the reducible fraction extracted with 0.5 M NH2OH?HCl. A higher acid-extractable fraction for Mn than for Cd and Zn was found. Higher Cd concentrations in the compost due to the use of bark or wood chips did not result in higher risk of Cd leaching. The results of the pH-stat experiment with gradual acidification of composts illustrated that only a strong pH decline in the compost results in higher availability of Cd, Zn and Mn. 相似文献

This article presents a bench‐scale study performed to investigate the removal of heavy metals when they exist individually and in combination in soils. Electrokinetic experiments were conducted using two types of clayey soils, kaolin and glacial till. These soils were contaminated with Cr(VI) only, with Ni(II) only, and with Cr(VI), Ni(II), and Cd(II) combined. It was found that in kaolin, a significant pH variation occurred due to electric potential application, affecting the adsorption‐desorption and dissolution‐precipitation, as well as the extent of migration of the contaminants. In glacial till, however, pH changes were not affected significantly. In both kaolin and glacial till, the migration of Cr(VI) and Ni(II) was higher when they were present individually compared to when they existed together with Cd(II). Cr(VI) migration as single or combined contaminant was lower in kaolin as compared to that in glacial till. This result was due to the low pH conditions created near the anode region in kaolin that led to high Cr(VI) adsorption to the clay surfaces. In glacial till, however, nickel precipitated with or without the presence of co‐contaminants due to high pH conditions in the soil. Overall, this study demonstrates that adsorption, precipitation, and reduction are the significant hindering mechanisms for the removal of heavy metals using electrokinetic remediation. The direction of the contaminant migration and overall removal efficiency depend on the polarity of the contaminant, the presence of co‐contaminants, and the type of soil. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons. 相似文献

This study investigated the effectiveness of a cyclodextrin‐based solid material for the removal of mixed dissolved contaminants. The solid material was prepared by condensation of α‐cyclodextrin. The removal efficiency was found to be 70 percent for total heavy metals (cadmium, lead, chromium, iron, nickel, cobalt, and mercury) to 98 percent for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The optimum pH for heavy metal removal was approximately 5 and for PCBs it was in the range of 5–7. All of these heavy metals were successfully recovered from the spent cyclodextrin‐based material using nitric acid, allowing the material to be reused for further passes. The results also showed that the presence of alkaline and alkaline earth metals did not have a significant effect on the removal efficiency, indicating that the cyclodextrin‐based material could selectively remove the heavy metals of concern without being consumed by alkaline and alkaline‐earth metals. © 2006 Government of Canada. 相似文献

The synthesis and characterization of poly (acrylic acid) grafted pectin hydrogel followed by biosorption and desorption characteristics of cadmium, as a model heavy metal, have been studied. The grafted eco-friendly pectin based interpenetrating hydrogel was prepared in the presence of gluteraldehyde crosslinker under N2 atmosphere and characterized using 1H-NMR, FTIR, TGA and SEM techniques. Gluteraldehyde was found to form one-arm and two-arm crosslinks in the copolymer. Upon grafting, two-dimensional sheet structures bounded to tubular and vascular cylindrical rods were observed. The biosorption and desorption data, determined experimentally, were fitted to pseudo-second order reaction kinetics. At higher ionic strength values, the maximum metal uptake value (q max) was lowered and pseudo-second order rate constant (k 2) was increased. Whereas, at higher pH values the maximum metal uptake value (q max) was increased and Pseudo-second order rate constant (k 2) was decreased. 0.1?M HCl solution was a suitable eluent to regenerate the hydrogel surface and recover the adsorbed cadmium metal ions. Pectin based copolymer could be used as an efficient candidature biosorbent for the recovery of cadmium metal ions from aqueous solutions. 相似文献
