Sludge-derived activated carbon (SAC) was prepared by Fenton activation and calcination, and used as adsorbent to eliminate Eriochrome Black T (EBT) dye from aqueous media. The characterization results indicated that the produced SAC had a porous structure, high specific surface area, and abundant functional groups on its surface. The adsorption process was affected by pH, adsorbent dosage, time, and temperature. The adsorption capacity increased with temperature, and the highest adsorption capacity reached 178.2 mg·g−1 in 48 h at 318 K and pH 6. The results of the adsorption isotherm, kinetic, and thermodynamic analyses revealed that the adsorption of EBT onto SAC was naturally endothermic and spontaneous, involved both physical and chemical processes, and belonged mostly to the multilayer type of adsorption.

Introduction. The mineral resource base of Russia has effective sorption substances that meet pharmaceutical requirements. Promising mineral raw materials are Zeolites, which combine the properties of an adsorbent and a "molecular sieve" due to the porous structure. In addition to the enterosorption direction, natural Zeolites are a source of macro-and microelements, which determines their use as biologically active food additives.Aim. Study of the physical and chemical characteristics of the Zeolites of the Kholinsky deposit.Materials and methods. The zeolite mineral raw materials of the Kholinsky deposit were used as objects of research. Optical microscopy was performed using a Leica DM direct microscope (Microsystems, Germany). Energy dispersion analysis was performed using an electron scanning microscope JSM-5300 (Jeol Ltd, Japan). The sorption characteristics were studied using the ASAP 2400 device (Micromeritics, USA) according to the method. The construction of a virtual three-dimensional molecular model of the Zeolite was carried out using the program Java Applet Jmol.Results and discussion. The physicochemical properties of Zeolites are investigated. It is established that morphologically the particles of the zeolite phase have a size of 5-30 microns, they are evenly distributed over the entire area of the site and represent the first structural level. Particles of the zeolite phase with a size of 5-6 microns form the second structural level due to Clinoptilolite crystals, microcracks and microgeodes. Based on the energy-dispersion spectral analysis, an increased content of the elements K, Na was revealed, which indicates the alkaline composition of the cation exchange complex. The studied Zeolite samples have micropores (volume 0.0031 cm3/g), mesopores (volume 0.0675 cm3/g), and a specific surface area of 29.1840 m2/g. A virtual three-dimensional molecular model of the Zeolite of the Kholinsky deposit has been developed. According to the molecular model, the sorption characteristics of the Kholinsky deposit Zeolite were: specific surface area - 1096.31 m2/g (1916.34 m2/cm3), the average diameter of the spherical molecule for adsorption in the pores is 5.97 A.Conclusion. The analysis of the sorption characteristics of the Zeolite revealed the following features: the pores occupy half the volume of the entire Zeolite, which are available for the sorption of water and low-molecular substances. Each pore in three mutually perpendicular directions communicates with the neighboring ones through "windows". A system of intracrystalline pores and cavities is formed, in which the occlusion and adsorption of molecules of the appropriate size easily occurs.

A novel porous carbon adsorbent for the removal of deoxynivalenol was prepared from soybean dreg (SD). The new material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis, N2 adsorption/desorption measurement techniques, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The specific surface area of the SDB-6-KOH was found to be 3655.95 m2 g−1, the pore volume was 1.936 cm3 g−1 and the average pore size was 2.125 nm. The high specific surface area and effective functional groups of the carbon material promoted the adsorption of deoxynivalenol. By comparing the adsorption effect of SDB-6-X prepared with different activators (X: KOH, K2CO3, KHCO3), SDB-6-KOH had the highest adsorption capacity. The maximum adsorption capacity of SDB-6-KOH to deoxynivalenol was 52.9877 µg mg−1, and the removal efficiency reached 88.31% at 318 K. The adsorption kinetic and isotherm data were suitable for pseudo-second-order and Langmuir equations, and the results of this study show that the novel carbon material has excellent adsorptive ability and, thus, offers effective practical application potential for the removal of deoxynivalenol.

Clays and aluminosilicate materials are known as effective sorbents for purification of wastewater from various types of contaminants. Some properties and sorption activity of materials based on the zeolite of Shankanai deposit and Chamotte clay towards Cd2+ ions were analyzed in the present work. The structural characteristics of the studied objects, their qualitative and quantitative composition were determined by the SEM and EDAX methods. It was found that maximum adsorption capacity (qe) of the initial zeolite for extraction Cd2+ ions is (7.3±0.11) mg/g, while for Chamotte clay this value equals to (5.3±0.12) mg/g. After modification with polyvinylpyrrolidone, qe increased to (10.1±0.08) mg/g for zeolite, and (8.5±0.15) mg/g for Chamotte clay. Developed specific surface of the composite material (sorbent) and complexation with the active centres of thepolymer couldbe a resultof Cd2+ ions binding.

Rare-earth phosphates are of particular interest because of their catalytic properties associated with the hydrolysis of many aromatic chlorides in the petroleum industry. Lanthanum phosphates (LaPO4) which have been doped with small amounts of copper have shown increased catalytic activity (1). However the physical and chemical characteristics of the samples leading to good catalytic activity are not known.Many catalysts are amorphous and thus do not easily lend themselves to methods of investigation which would include electron microscopy. However, the LaPO4, crystals are quite suitable samples for high resolution techniques.The samples used were obtained from William L. Kehl of Gulf Research and Development Company. The electron microscopy was carried out on a JEOL JEM-100B which had been modified for high resolution microscopy (2). Standard high resolution techniques were employed. Three different sample types were observed: 669A-1-5-7 (poor catalyst), H-L-2 (good catalyst) and 27-011 (good catalyst).

The kinetics of the reaction of solid sodium carbonate with sulfur dioxide depends on the microstructure of the solid, which in turn is affected by the way and conditions of its preparation. The active form, analogous to that obtained by thermal decomposition of NaHCO3, emerges from the dehydration of Na2CO3 . 10 H2O in a vacuum or its weathering in air at room temperature. The two active forms are porous and have approximately the same specific surface area. Partial hydration of the active Na2CO3 in air at room temperature followed by thermal dehydration does not bring about a significant decrease in reactivity. On the other hand, if the preparation of anhydrous Na2CO3 involves, partly or completely, the liquid phase, the reactivity of the product is substantially lower.

In this study, the hydrated sodium aluminosilicate material was synthesized by one-step hydrothermal alkaline desilication using fly ash (FA) as raw material. The synthesized materials were characterized by XRD, XRF, FT-IR and SEM. The characterization results showed that the alkali-soluble desilication successfully had synthesized the sodium aluminosilicate crystalline (N-A-S-H) phase of sodalite-type (SOD), and the modified material had good ionic affinity and adsorption capacity. In order to figure out the suitability of SOD as an adsorbent for the removal of ammonium and phosphorus from wastewater, the effects of material dosing, contact time, ambient pH and initial solute concentration on the simultaneous removal of ammonium and phosphorus are investigated by intermittent adsorption tests. Under the optimal adsorption conditions, the removal rate of ammonium was 73.3%, the removal rate of phosphate was 85.8% and the unit adsorption capacity reached 9.15 mg/L and 2.14 mg/L, respectively. Adsorption kinetic studies showed that the adsorption of ammonium and phosphorus by SOD was consistent with a quasi-secondary kinetic model. The adsorption isotherm analysis showed that the equilibrium data were in good agreement with the Langmuir and Freundlich model. According to thermodynamic calculations, the adsorption of ammonium and phosphorus was found to be a heat-absorbing and spontaneous process. Therefore, the preparation of SOD by modified FA has good adsorption properties as adsorbent and has excellent potential for application in the removal of contaminants from wastewater.

The treatment of wastewater containing heavy metals and the utilization of wool waste are very important for the sustainable development of textile mills. In this study, the wool keratin modified magnetite (Fe3O4) powders were fabricated by using wool waste via a co-precipitation technique for removal of Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions. The morphology, chemical compositions, crystal structure, microstructure, magnetism properties, organic content, and specific surface area of as-fabricated powders were systematically characterized by various techniques including field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area analyzer. The effects of experimental parameters such as the volume of wool keratin hydrolysate, the dosage of powder, the initial Cu2+ ion concentration, and the pH value of solution on the adsorption capacity of Cu2+ ions by the powders were examined. The experimental results indicated that the Cu2+ ion adsorption performance of the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders exhibited much better than that of the chitosan modified ones with a maximum Cu2+ adsorption capacity of 27.4 mg/g under favorable conditions (0.05 g powders; 50 mL of 40 mg/L CuSO4; pH 5; temperature 293 K). The high adsorption capacity towards Cu2+ ions on the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders was primarily because of the strong surface complexation of –COOH and –NH2 functional groups of wool keratins with Cu2+ ions. The Cu2+ ion adsorption process on the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders followed the Temkin adsorption isotherm model and the intraparticle diffusion and pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetic models. After Cu2+ ion removal, the wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders were easily separated using a magnet from aqueous solution and efficiently regenerated using 0.5 M ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)-H2SO4 eluting. The wool keratin modified Fe3O4 powders possessed good regenerative performance after five cycles. This study provided a feasible way to utilize waste wool textiles for preparing magnetic biomass-based adsorbents for the removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions.
