RESUMO
Herein, a novel nanocomposite based on lanthanum zinc ferrite and nickel tungstate was created by incorporation between (MMT-jeffamine-400) nanoparticles (NPs), chloromethyl styrene as a binder and polymethyl methacrylate monomer using solution polymerization. The as-designed nanocomposites were employed to confiscate xylenol orange "X.O" as an acidic dye and rhodamine B "RhB" as "an amphoteric dye" from colored wastewater. The impact of several parameters such as solution pH, initial dye concentration, the effect of time, and the effect of temperature was explored. The consequences indicated that the pure organoclay had negligible adsorption while that composed of organoclay with PMMA@CMS-polymer incorporated with LaZnFe2O4@NiWO4 particles detached more than 90% for xylenol orange (XO) and 93% for "rhodamine B" molecules. Electrostatic interactions are the predominant factor in the adsorption of cationic and amphoteric adsorbates, as proven by zeta-potential measurement. Additionally, the adsorbent may be regenerate and utilized up to five times with good adsorption capabilities by adding sodium hydroxide. As a result, the removal can be effectively accomplished using the nanocomposite as an adsorbent. The actual and theoretical adsorption capacity values for both dyes at all doses were closely matched, which supported the adsorption kinetics data that fit the pseudo-first order rate model well. The adsorption data's correlation values (0.995 for XO and 0.98 for RhB) indicated that both dyes' Langmuir adsorption would perform well. Furthermore, the adsorption of XO and RhB dyes on the adsorbent is confirmed to be a viable reaction by the negative values of ΔGo. The enhanced adsorbent material for the removal of amphoteric and anionic dyes from waste water is the synthesized LaZnFe2O4 supported NiWO4@D400-MMT@CMS/MMA nanocomposites, which exhibits a reusability affinity of up to five cycles.
RESUMO
Herein, efficient and potential chelating α-aminophosphonate based sorbents (AP-) derived from three different amine origins (aniline/anthranilic acid/O-phenylenediamine) to form AP-H, carboxylated and aminated enhanced aminophosphonate as AP-H, AP-COOH, and AP-NH2 were synthesized via a facile method. The structure of the synthesized sorbents was elucidated using different techniques; elemental analysis (CHNP/O), FT-IR, NMR (1H-, 13C and 31P NMR), TGA and BET. The fabricated sorbents were exploited for Hg(II) removal from aqueous solution via sorption properties. Isotherm fitted by Langmuir equation: the maximum sorption capacities at optimum pH 5.5, and T:25 ± 1 °C, were found to be 1.33, 1.23, and 1.15 mmol Hg g-1 for AP-COOH, AP-NH2, AP-H, respectively, which is roughly correlated with the active sites density and the hard/soft characteristics of adsorbents' reactive groups. Metal-ligand binding affinities are qualitatively rationalized in terms of hard and soft acids and bases (HSAB) theory. The interaction of Hg(II) (soft) has a stronger affinity to AP-COOH can be considered a softer base compared with reference material (AP-H) over than AP-NH2 (hard). This sequence result showed opposite trends consistent with their reciprocal properties according to the steric effect modulates and the specific surface area. Thermodynamics analysis for absolute values of ΔH°, ΔS° and ΔG° afford the selectivity towards Hg(II) sorption with the following order: AP-COOH > AP-NH2 >AP-H. Elution and regeneration was carried out by HCl solution and recycled for a minimum of five cycles, the sorption and desorption efficiencies are greater than 91%. Such sorbents exhibit good durability, stability and promising potential for Hg(II) removal. Finally, a new modelling technique for quantitative non-linear description and comparison of equivalent geographical positions in 3D space of extended relationships. Exothermic and spontaneous behavior were observed using a proposed Floatotherm that included the Van't Hoff parameters model.
