Abstract
In this study, the magnetic modification of rectorite was conducted to enhance its regenerability and surface electronegativity. When using the raw rectorite, the removal rate of ciprofloxacin was 78 % and the recovery rate was only 26 % after six regeneration cycles. However, with magnetized modified rectorite (M-REC), the removal rate of ciprofloxacin was 97 % and the recovery rate exceeded 75 %. The magnetic properties, easy magnetic separation and enhanced surface electronegativity of M-REC were confirmed through SEM, TEM, VSM, XRD, BET and XPS characterization. After six regeneration recycles, the basic skeleton structure of M-REC remained largely unchanged, indicating that has excellent stability. Additionally, the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics of M-REC were investigated, and the Langmuir model accurately described the adsorption isotherm. The adsorption kinetics data fit the pseudo-second order models. The adsorption rate was determined by the number of available adsorption sites on the M-REC surface, and the removal process was primarily driven by chemisorption. Therefore, M-REC is an environmentally friendly adsorption material with potential applications in environmental remediation.
期刊介绍:
The journal includes papers in the following areas:
– Simple organic liquids and mixtures
– Ionic liquids
– Surfactant solutions (including micelles and vesicles) and liquid interfaces
– Colloidal solutions and nanoparticles
– Thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystals
– Ferrofluids
– Water, aqueous solutions and other hydrogen-bonded liquids
– Lubricants, polymer solutions and melts
– Molten metals and salts
– Phase transitions and critical phenomena in liquids and confined fluids
– Self assembly in complex liquids.– Biomolecules in solution
The emphasis is on the molecular (or microscopic) understanding of particular liquids or liquid systems, especially concerning structure, dynamics and intermolecular forces. The experimental techniques used may include:
– Conventional spectroscopy (mid-IR and far-IR, Raman, NMR, etc.)
– Non-linear optics and time resolved spectroscopy (psec, fsec, asec, ISRS, etc.)
– Light scattering (Rayleigh, Brillouin, PCS, etc.)
– Dielectric relaxation
– X-ray and neutron scattering and diffraction.
Experimental studies, computer simulations (MD or MC) and analytical theory will be considered for publication; papers just reporting experimental results that do not contribute to the understanding of the fundamentals of molecular and ionic liquids will not be accepted. Only papers of a non-routine nature and advancing the field will be considered for publication.
