Abstract
Over the years, a wide range of cationic surfactants have been used for the modification of zeolite surface chemistry. In this research study, the synthesized surfactant modified zeolites were characterized using scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS), Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Brunauer-Emmet-Teller (BET) and zeta potential analysis. Cr (VI) and Mo (VI). After modification, an increase in Cr (VI) and Mo (VI) oxyanion removal efficiency of zeolite 4A from 22.99 % to 96.3 % and 51.85 %–85.61 % has been observed. The pore volume diffusion and surface diffusion coefficients Dp and DS were in order of 10−12 cm2 s−1. The mass transfer coefficient Kf were in the order of 10−5 cm s−1. Cr (VI) and Mo (VI) adsorption on BZT-zeolite is good agreement with Langmuir and Sips models. The Cr (VI) and Mo (VI) uptake capacities are approximately equivalent to 3 mg/g. The highest enthalpy changes (ΔH°) for the removal of Cr (VI) and Mo (VI) were −105.429 and −53.243 kJ/mol respectively. The entropy changes (ΔS°) were −0.335 and −0.163 kJ/mol for the removal of Cr (VI) and Mo (VI) respectively. The free energies of adsorption of Cr (VI) and Mo (VI) were lower than zero. Hence, Cr (VI) and Mo (VI) adsorption process was found to be spontaneous and exothermic. ANN shows excellent modelling for the adsorption process with relatively error values lower than 10 %.
期刊介绍:
Microporous and Mesoporous Materials covers novel and significant aspects of porous solids classified as either microporous (pore size up to 2 nm) or mesoporous (pore size 2 to 50 nm). The porosity should have a specific impact on the material properties or application. Typical examples are zeolites and zeolite-like materials, pillared materials, clathrasils and clathrates, carbon molecular sieves, ordered mesoporous materials, organic/inorganic porous hybrid materials, or porous metal oxides. Both natural and synthetic porous materials are within the scope of the journal.
Topics which are particularly of interest include:
All aspects of natural microporous and mesoporous solids
The synthesis of crystalline or amorphous porous materials
The physico-chemical characterization of microporous and mesoporous solids, especially spectroscopic and microscopic
The modification of microporous and mesoporous solids, for example by ion exchange or solid-state reactions
All topics related to diffusion of mobile species in the pores of microporous and mesoporous materials
Adsorption (and other separation techniques) using microporous or mesoporous adsorbents
Catalysis by microporous and mesoporous materials
Host/guest interactions
Theoretical chemistry and modelling of host/guest interactions
All topics related to the application of microporous and mesoporous materials in industrial catalysis, separation technology, environmental protection, electrochemistry, membranes, sensors, optical devices, etc.
