In this chapter the adsorption fundamentals using biomass as adsorbents in the removal of metallic ions are presented. The research as shows the importance of many factors that affects the adsorption, such as the biomass superficial area, system temperature, pH, initial concentration of the metal, biomass amount and status (living or dead). The study was directed at the approach of two applications using Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast in the adsorption of Cd2+ metal ions. In the first application it is discussed the influence of the pH of the medium and the biomass status (living or dead) in the adsorption of Cd2+, in batch. In the second application, it was studied the adsorption of Cd2+metallic ions through the Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast immobilized in chitosan, in fixed bed, where the influence inlet mass flow rate and the initial effluent concentration on the adsorption capacity and percentage of Cd2+ ions removal are evaluated.The studies realized are supported by statistical analysis with 95% confidence intervals.

Fixed Bed Adsorption

The main objective of this work was to design and model fixed bed adsorption column for the adsorption of vanillin from aqueous solution. Three parameters were evaluated for identifying the performance of vanillin adsorption in fixed-bed mode, which were bed height, vanillin initial concentration, and feed flow rate. The maximum adsorption capacity was increased more than threefold to 314.96 mg vanillin/g resin when the bed height was increased from 5 cm to 15 cm. Bohart-Adams model and Belter equation were used for designing fixed-bed column and predicting the performance of the adsorption process. A high value of determination coefficient (R2) of 0.9672 was obtained for the modelling of vanillin adsorption onto resin H103.

Fixed-bed adsorption studies using chitosan-coated bentonite (CCB) as adsorbent media were investigated for the simultaneous adsorption of Pb(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) from a multimetal system. The effects of operational parameters such as bed height, flow rate, and initial concentration on the length of mass transfer zone, breakthrough time, exhaustion time, and adsorption capacity at breakthrough were evaluated. With increasing bed height and decreasing flow rate and initial concentration, the breakthrough and exhaustion time were observed to favorably increase. Moreover, the adsorption capacity at breakthrough was observed to increase with decreasing initial concentration and flow rate and increasing bed height. The maximum adsorption capacity at breakthrough of 13.49 mg/g for Pb(II), 12.14 mg/g for Cu(II), and 10.29 mg/g for Ni(II) was attained at an initial influent concentration of 200 mg/L, bed height of 2.0 cm, and flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Adsorption data were fitted with Adams-Bohart, Thomas, and Yoon-Nelson models. Experimental breakthrough curves were observed to be in good agreement (R2>0.85andE%<50%) with the predicted curves generated by the kinetic models. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of CCB in the removal of Pb(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) from a ternary metal solution.

This investigation suggests the implementation of ZSM-5 activated carbon composite as a prolific adsorbent for the continuous elimination of Pb2+ ions from water. Continuous adsorption experiments were performed by varying three parameters such as process flow rate (2-6 mL min-1), bed height (2-6 cm), and initial concentration (250–750 mg L-1). The highest loading capacity of the fixed-bed 213.3 mg L-1 was achieved with optimal values of 2 mL min-1 of flow rate, bed height of 6 cm, and initial concentration of 750 mg L-1, respectively. The breakthrough curves and saturation points were found to appear quickly for increasing flow rates and initial concentration and vice versa for bed depth. The lower flow rates with higher bed depths have exhibited optimal performances of the fixed-bed column. The mechanism of adsorption of Pb2+ ions was found to be ion exchange with Na+ ions from ZMS-5 and pore adsorption onto activated carbon. The breakthrough curves were verified with three well-known mathematical models such as the Adams-Bohart, Thomas, and Yoon-Nelson models. The later models showed the best fit to the column data over the Adams-Bohart model that can be utilized to understand the binding of Pb2+ ions onto the composite. Regeneration of ZSM-5/activated carbon was achieved successfully with 0.1 M HCl within 60 min of contact time. The outcomes conclude that ZSM-5 activated carbon composite is a prolific material for the continuous removal of water loaded with Pb2+ ions.

The ability of the agricultural residue of sugarcane bagasse to serve as an absorbent material used to remove Ciprofloxacin, one of strong Fluoroquinolone antibiotic from aqueous solutions in fixed-bed columns was investigated. The properties of biochar sugarcane bagasse were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy before and after modification. The results of fixed bed column experiment showed that the shape of the removal efficiency of CIP and exhaustion time was dependent on bed height, flow rate and initial concentration. The maximum adsorption capacity qo predicted from Thomas modelreached 0.955mg/g at the flow rate of 1mL/min, initial concentration of 15mg/L and bed height of 6cm. From Yoon-Nelson equation, 3.38 minutes was the time required for 50% exhaustion of 12cm bed height column with the flow rate 2mL/min and concentration 15mg/L. Thomas and Yoon-Nelson models were in good agreement with the experimental breakthrough curve data.

The potential use of Pleurotus spent mushroom compost as a biosorbent for Fe (II) removal from aqueous solutions was investigated. The experiments were conducted in a fixed-bed column to investigate the influence of various parameters such as flow rate, bed depth and initial concentration on the biosorption of Fe (II). The results of breakthrough time, exhaustion time as well as the Fe (II) uptake and percentage of removal are highly influenced by the flow rate, bed depth and the initial Fe (II) concentration. The results demonstrated that the breakthrough time and exhaustion time increased with decreases in flow rate and initial Fe (II) concentration. Conversely, the breakthrough and exhaustion time decreased as the bed depth decreases.

Abstract Sugarcane bagasse waste biomass (SBWB) efficacy for the adsorption of Zr(IV) was investigated in batch and column modes. The process variables i.e. pH 1–4 (A), adsorbent dosage 0.0–0.3 g (B), and Zr(IV) ions initial concentration 25–200 mg/L (C) were studied. The experiments were run under central composite design (CCD) and data was analysed by response surface methodology (RSM) methodology. The factor A, B, C, AB interaction and square factor A2, C2 affected the Zr(IV) ions adsorption onto SBWB. The quadratic model fitted well to the adsorption data with high R2 values. The effect of bed height, flow rate and Zr(IV) ions initial concentration was also studied for column mode adsorption and efficiency was evaluated by breakthrough curves as well as Bed Depth Service and Thomas models. Bed height and Zr(IV) ions initial concentration enhanced the adsorption of capacity of Zr(IV) ions, whereas flow rate reduced the column efficiency.

The degradation effectiveness and reaction kinetics of representative organophosphorus (OP) pesticide in a packed-bed plasma reactor have been studied. Important parameters, including peak voltage, pulse frequency, gas-flow rate, initial concentration, diameter of catalyst particles, and thickness of catalyst bed which influences the removal efficiency, were investigated. Experimental results indicated that rogor removal efficiency as high as 80% can be achieved at 35 kV with the gas flow rate of 800 mL/min and initial concentration of 11.2 mg/m3.The removal efficiency increased with the increase of pulsed high voltage, and pulse frequency, the decrease of the diameter of catalyst particles and the thickness of catalyst bed. Finally, a model was established to predict the degradation of the rogor, which generally can simulate the experimental measurements to some degree.
