In this work, magnetic Fe-Cu bimetal oxide modified fly ash was used to remove phosphate from coating wastewater. The influences of pH, dosage amount and adsorption time on the removal of phosphate were investigated. The experimental results showed that pH had a significant effect on the adsorption of phosphate. The removal percentage of phosphate reached a maximum at pH 10. The removal efficiency of phosphate increased with the increase in adsorbent dosage. A kinetic study showed that the phosphate adsorption was well described by a pseudo second order model. The adsorption isotherm of phosphate could be described by the Langmuir model and Freundlich model. The Langmuir maximum capacity Q0 was 12.69 mg/g and the value of n of the Freundlich model was 3.82. The experimental results indicated that magnetic Fe-Cu bimetal oxide modified fly ash was a potential adsorbent for the removal of phosphate from the wastewater.

The feasibility of using honeycomb-cinder slag as an adsorbent for phosphate removal from aqueous solution was investigated in batch experiments as a function of initial pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, and solution temperature. The results indicated that the solution pH significantly influenced the phosphate adsorption; 1440 min was enough to reach equilibrium for any concentration. Langmuir isotherm model gave well fit for phosphate adsorption, and the adsorption process followed pseudo second-order model. Desorption study exhibited that the phosphate adsorption on the honeycomb-cinder slag is not completely reversible. Results showed that honeycomb-cinder slag could be used as an adsorbent to uptake phosphate from wastewater.

In this study, fly ash (FA) was modified by sodium hydroxide to prepare a new adsorption material (IP) and treat Pb2+- and Cd2+-polluted wastewater. The effect of preparation parameters (mass ratio of FA/NaOH and modification temperature) on IP adsorption performance was investigated. The results indicated that the IP4 showed the highest adsorption capacity prepared at the FA/NaOH mass ratio of 1 : 2 and the roasting temperature of 250°C. The IP4 was characterized by SEM, EDX, XRD, and FTIR analyses. The results showed that the surface morphology and microstructure of FA were significantly changed. Furthermore, in order to study the adsorption performance of Pb2+ and Cd2+ on IP4, the different initial concentrations of Pb2+ and Cd2+, pH, and contact time were analyzed, and the results indicated that IP4 has excellent adsorption capacity for heavy metals. In addition, kinetic model results demonstrated that the adsorption behavior of Pb2+ and Cd2+ on IP4 was better described by a pseudo-second-order model.

The fly ash generated from a Romanian power plant was used as a starting material in this study. The aim of the study was to obtain a low cost material based on the treatment of fly ash with Fe3O4 for utilization as an adsorbent for cadmium ion removal. The adsorbent that was synthesized was characterized using different techniques. The adsorption process was investigated by the batch technique at room temperature. The quantity of cadmium ion adsorbed was measured spectrophotometrically. The experimental data showed that the material can remove cadmium ions at all three working concentrations. The adsorption capacity increased with an increase in concentration, respectively contact time. The results were analyzed through two kinetic models: pseudo first order and pseudo second order. The kinetics results of cadmium adsorption onto a magnetic material are in good agreement with a pseudo second order model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 4.03 mg/g, 6.73 mg/g, and 9.65 mg/g. Additionally, the pseudo second order model was linearized into its four types. The results indicated that the material obtained show the ability to remove cadmium ions from an aqueous solution.

The potential of AlCl3 modified palygorskite was assessed for adsorption of phosphate from aqueous solutions. The Langmuir isotherm adequately described adsorption with an R2 goodness of fit of 0.9683. The process kinetics was found to follow the pseudo-second-order model. Positive △H and △S values indicated that the adsorption of phosphate onto AlCl3 modified palygorskite was endothermic. Negative △G showed that the adsorption of phosphate onto this sorbent is feasible and spontaneous.

The efficiency of dolomite to remove phosphate from aqueous solutions was investigated. The experimental results showed that the removal of phosphate by dolomite was rapid (the removal rate over 95% in 60 min) when the initial phosphate concentration is at the range of 10–50 mg/L. Several kinetic models including intraparticle diffusion model, pseudo-first-order model, Elovich model, and pseudo-second-order model were employed to evaluate the kinetics data of phosphate adsorption onto dolomite and pseudo-second-order model was recommended to describe the adsorption kinetics characteristics. Further analysis of the adsorption kinetics indicated that the phosphate removal process was mainly controlled by chemical bonding or chemisorption. Moreover, both Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms were used to evaluate the experimental data. The results indicated that Langmuir isotherm was more suitable to describe the adsorption characteristics of dolomite. Maximum adsorption capacity of phosphate by dolomite was found to be 4.76 mg phosphorous/g dolomite. Thermodynamic studies showed that phosphate adsorption was exothermic. The study implies that dolomite is an excellent low cost material for phosphate removal in wastewater treatment process.

Abstract In this study, akadama clay, a kind of volcano ash, was activated with sulfuric acid and then evaluated for the adsorption of phosphate from aqueous solution via batch experiments. The effects of adsorbent dose, initial pH and coexisting anions on phosphate removal by natural akadama clay and acid-activated akadama clay were investigated. Based on the pH effect, the modified adsorbent could efficiently capture phosphate over a wider pH range of 3.00–6.00 than natural akadama clay. Competitive anions showed negative effects on the phosphate adsorption, especially citrate and carbonate. The adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation and the intra-particle diffusion. Langmuir isotherm model was found to fit the data better than Freundlich model, and the maximum adsorption capacities of phosphate onto the natural akadama clay and acid-activated akadama clay were 5.88 and 9.19 mg/g, respectively. Furthermore, thermodynamic studies confirmed that the adsorption of acid-activated akadama clay was a spontaneous process. The mechanisms of phosphate adsorption on the clay could be ascribed to electrostatic attraction and ligand exchange. These results suggest that after modification, acid-activated akadama clay could be used as a promising adsorbent for phosphate removal from wastewater in real application and then further used as fertilizers.
