Abstract
The flocculation of dyeing wastewater generated a large amount of sludge that was often disposed as refractory hazardous waste. The resource utilization of flocculation sludge was of great significance in terms of low treatment cost of sludge, low environmental risk and high usage efficiency of reactive dyes. Herein, a flocculation sludge-derived (FSD) adsorbent was prepared via cross-linking of flocculation sludge yielding by carboxymethyl chitosan-based flocculants and dyes. FSD adsorbent had excellent selective adsorption performance for methylene blue (MB) treatment. The highest removal rate of MB and adsorption capacity of FSD adsorbent were 96.48 % and 354.7066 mg/g, attributing to its rich functional groups, negative charges and special micropore structure. FSD adsorbent owned the favorable regeneration efficiency and stability. Its removal rate of MB was still above 71.8 % after 6 regeneration-adsorption cycles. Its leaching rate of dyes was only 0.0016 mg/mg that was rather lower than common dried flocculation sludge. The adsorption processes of FSD adsorbent were complex in accordance with its characteristics, adsorption isotherms, adsorption kinetics and theoretical calculation. Multiple adsorption mechanisms were present in the treatment of dyeing wastewater by FSD adsorbent. The resource utilization of flocculation sludge, as adsorbents, was a potential candidate in field application.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Biological Macromolecules is a well-established international journal dedicated to research on the chemical and biological aspects of natural macromolecules. Focusing on proteins, macromolecular carbohydrates, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, lignins, biological poly-acids, and nucleic acids, the journal presents the latest findings in molecular structure, properties, biological activities, interactions, modifications, and functional properties. Papers must offer new and novel insights, encompassing related model systems, structural conformational studies, theoretical developments, and analytical techniques. Each paper is required to primarily focus on at least one named biological macromolecule, reflected in the title, abstract, and text.
