Dechlorination of chlorophenols by zero valent iron impregnated silica

Laboratory studies were conducted to find out the efficacy of uniquely prepared zero valent iron impregnated silica in transforming xenobiotic chlorophenols namely 4-chlorophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol. Continuous mode column experiments were performed to investigate the transformation of chlorophenols by varying pH, column height, flow rate and initial chlorophenol concentration. Reusability study of the zero valent iron impregnated silica was studied as well as the morphological changes and the chemical composition of the catalyst medium were also investigated. Dechlorination kinetic studies were conducted and the order of dechlorination of chlorophenols was found to be 2,4,6-trichlorophenol > 2,4-dichlorophenol > 4-chlorophenol. The optimum pH, column height and flow rate were found to be 7, 20 cm and 0.75 L/hr respectively for all chlorophenols in the reaction duration of 4 hr. Intermediates formed during dechlorination study were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy analysis. This method was applied to real pulp and paper wastewater and was found satisfactory.     

Sorption of pyrene from water by oil shale ash and mineral particles

The aim of this work was to estimate the sorption of pyrene from water solutions on mineral substrates, e.g., alumina, silica, and oil shale ash, from the Estonian thermal plant. Results obtained from this study indicate that the sorption of pyrene on mineral oxides and oil shale ash particles from water can be described with a linear equation. The sorptive capacity per weight of oil shale ash in aqueous systems was significantly lower compared with mineral adsorbents. The distribution coefficient (K_d) for pyrene in the system with particles of oil shale ash was 10–12 times lower as than for mineral adsorbents.

nZVI@mesoSiO2的可控合成及应用性能研究

采用改进的两步法在原位基础上合成了以纳米零价铁(nano Zero Valent Iron,nZVI)为核芯的核壳型介孔二氧化硅(nZVI@mesoSiO_2).同时,通过简单地调控铁源用量得到具有单一nZVI核芯和不同壳层厚度的核壳型纳米复合材料.结果发现,铁源用量的增加会导致核芯尺寸减小、壳层厚度增加及颗粒比表面积下降.当铁源用量为2.78 g时,得到的nZVI@mesoSiO_2不仅具有较高的比表面积和单一且均匀的孔径分布,而且对2,4,6-三氯苯酚(2,4,6-Trichlorophenol, 2,4,6-TCP)的去除表现出很高的性能.影响因素实验表明,材料的最佳投加量为1.0 g·L~(-1),体系适宜初始pH为5.0,污染物初始浓度升高会导致去除效果下降,并且反应体系内乙二胺四乙酸(EDTA)的存在可以提高2,4,6-TCP的去除率.材料的重复利用实验结果表明,经过多次循环反应后会导致材料nZVI核芯的失活和孔道的堵塞.本研究不仅为制备可控壳层厚度的核壳型介孔材料提供了理论指导,而且为进一步改性合成对2,4,6-TP具有高选择性的复合材料提供了依据.

Removal of heavy metals from artificial metals contaminated water samples based on micelle-templated silica modified with pyoverdin I

The micelle-templated silica (MTS) was firstly chemically modified with 3-glycidoxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) before immobilized with pyoverdin I. The characteristics of pyoverdin I-anchored onto the modified MTS were investigated using fluorescence, infrared spectra and scanning electron microscopy. The specific surface area of all materials was calculated by Bnmauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) method using nitrogen isotherm adsorption data. As the results, the surface area of commercial silica gel decreased from 609.2 to 405.4 m2/g, it indicated that the pyoverdin I could be immobilized onto the surface of silica solid support. This adsorbent was used for extraction of Fe(Ⅲ), Cu(Ⅱ), Zn(Ⅱ), and Pb(Ⅱ) in artificial metals contaminated water. Experimental conditions for effective adsorption of trace levels of metal ions were optimized with respect to different experimental parameters using batch procedure. The optimum pH value for the removal of metal ions simultaneously on this adsorbent was 4.0. Complete desorption of the adsorbed metal ions from the adsorbent was carded out using 0.25 mol/L of EDTA. The effcct of different cations and anions on the adsorption of these metals on adsorbent was studied and the results showed that the proposed adsorbent could be applied to the highly saline samples and the sample which contains some transition metals.
