Removal of malachite green dye from wastewater by different organic acid-modified natural adsorbent: kinetics,equilibriums, mechanisms,practical application,and disposal of dye-loaded adsorbent

Natural adsorbent (Cinnamomum camphora sawdust) modified by organic acid (oxalic acid, citric acid, and tartaric acid) was investigated as a potential adsorbent for the removal of hazardous malachite green (MG) dye in aqueous media in a batch process. The extent of MG adsorption onto modified sawdust increased with increasing organic acid concentrations, pH, contact time, and temperature but decreased with increasing adsorbent dosage and ionic strength. Kinetic study indicated that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model could best describe the adsorption kinetics of MG. Equilibrium data were found to fit well with the Langmuir model, and the maximum adsorption capacity of the three kinds of organic acid-modified sawdust was 280.3, 222.8, and 157.5 mg/g, respectively. Thermodynamic parameters suggested that the sorption of MG was an endothermic process. The adsorption mechanism, the application of adsorbents in practical wastewater, the prediction of single-stage batch adsorption system, and the disposal of depleted adsorbents were also discussed.     

Migration and leaching risk of extraneous antimony in three representative soils of China: Lysimeter and batch experiments

Antimony (Sb) distribution, solubility and mobility onto natural soils of China were studied in lysimeter and batch experiments as a function of physicochemical properties of the soil. An outdoor lysimeter experiment investigated the leaching and migration of Sb in the soils with Sb-polluted topsoil and unpolluted subsoil over a 5 month period. Soil solutions were collected by suction cups installed at different depth of lysimeters, and leachates were regularly collected and analyzed for Sb concentrations. The majority of the added Sb was retained in the topsoil layers, but small portions were moved to the sub-layers. Sb concentrations in the soil solutions and leachates ranged from 0–755.5 (6.38 ± 54 on average) μg l⁻¹ and 0–0.45 (smaller than the detection limit) μg l⁻¹ respectively, indicating the low solubility of Sb in the soils. Batch experiments were performed in order to determine the sorption capacity and the partition coefficient (K_d). Freundlich isotherm described properly the equilibrium experimental data and results show that the K_d values for Primosol, Isohumosol, Ferrosol equal to 22.5, 87.8, 704 L kg⁻¹, respectively. These results showed the strong capacity of the soils to retain Sb, and prevent it being leached down the profile. The mobilizable Sb was in the order: Primosol > Isohumosol > Ferrosol. Sb migration in the soils was mainly associated with the exchangeable, carbonate-bound, and metal–organic complex-bound fractions. Health risk assessment indicates that Sb leaching from Ferrosol will not harm to human health through groundwater under the test conditions, while it has certain health risks from the Isohumosol and Primosol.

Pb超富集植物金丝草（Pogonatherum crinitum）、柳叶箬（Lsache globosa）

重金属超富集植物是植物修复技术的核心和前提,但目前国内发现的Pb超富集植物较少,本研究通过野外调查和室内胁迫模拟实验相结合的方法,在国内首次发现并证实金丝草和柳叶箬为Pb的超富集植物。野外调查结果表明;金丝草地上部分Pb含量1 231.80 mg/kg,转运系数达到1.32,柳叶箬地上部分Pb含量1 818.40 mg/kg,转运系数6.5。室内模拟胁迫实验表明:在Pb胁迫浓度为5 000 mg/kg时金丝草和柳叶箬对Pb的转运系数均大于1,而且其地上部分Pb含量也超过1 000 mg/kg的水平。在Pb胁迫浓度为18 000 mg/kg时2种植物体内Pb含量达到最大值,金丝草地上部分和地下部分Pb含量分别达3 789.84 mg/kg和4 964.76 mg/kg,柳叶箬地上部分和地下部分Pb含量分别达3 411.56 mg/kg和1 523.02 mg/kg。     

不同类型清洗剂对含聚油泥清洗效果及界面性质的影响

为解决聚驱采出液中产生的大量含聚油泥造成石油资源浪费和环境污染问题,选用化学清洗法对含聚油泥进行处理。不同类型化学清洗剂对含聚油泥清洗效果的规律是:无机型和非离子型清洗剂对含聚油泥清洗效果最好,阴离子型清洗剂次之,阳离子型清洗剂最差。优化了无机清洗剂Na2SiO3和非离子型清洗剂EL100的脱油条件,脱油率分别达到91.12%和85.59%。不同类型清洗剂清洗含聚油泥的脱油率与油水界面性质具有明显的关联性,即脱油率越高,水相电导率越小,油滴Zeta电位绝对值越小,油滴中值粒径越大,油水界面张力越小。

Adsorption of Cu2+ and methyl orange from aqueous solutions by activated carbons of corncob-derived char wastes

Corncob-derived char wastes (CCW) obtained from biomass conversion to syngas production through corncob steam gasification, which were often discarded, were utilized for preparation of activated carbon by calcination, and KOH and HNO₃ activation treatments, on the view of environment protection and waste recycling. Their adsorption performance in the removal of heavy metal ions and dye molecules from wastewater was evaluated by using Cu²⁺ and methyl orange (MO) as the model pollutant. The surface and structure characteristics of the CCW-based activated carbons (CACs) were investigated by N₂ adsorption, CO₂ adsorption, FT-IR, and He-TPD. The adsorption capacity varied with the activation methods of CACs and different initial solution concentrations, indicating that the adsorption behavior was influenced by not only the surface area and porosity but also the oxygen functional groups on the surface of the CACs. The equilibrium adsorption data were analyzed with the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherm models, and the adsorption kinetics was evaluated by the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models.
