ABSTRACT
Antibiotics are commonly detected in natural waters. The organic matter (OM) in suspended particulate matter (SPM) has a critical impact on the adsorption of antibiotics in water. We investigated the contribution of OM content and form to the adsorption of tetracycline (TC) and norfloxacin (NOR) in the SPM of Taihu Lake. To change the content and form of OM in SPM, the samples were subjected to pyrolysis at 505 ËC and oxidization with H2O2, respectively. Combustion almost completely removed OM, while oxidation removed most of the OM and transformed the remaining OM. Regardless of whether the OM changed or not, the adsorption of NOR and TC by SPM was more in line with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model instead of pseudo-first-order. The fitting of the intraparticle diffusion model showed that the removal of OM had a certain degree of change in the adsorption process. The isothermal adsorption of TC in all samples was more in line with the Temkin model. The isothermal adsorption of NOR in the oxidized sample conformed to the Temkin model, while it conformed to the Langmuir model in the original sample and the sample removed OM via combustion. The adsorption capacity of SPM with almost complete removal of OM significantly decreased, while conversely, the adsorption capacity of SPM after oxidation increased. This indicates that both the content and form of OM affect the adsorption of antibiotics by SPM, and the form of OM has a greater impact. The contribution of OM to NOR adsorption was greater than that of TC. In conclusion, the results verify the importance of OM in adsorbing antibiotics onto SPM, which may provide basic data for antibiotic migration in surface water.
