Abstract
The textile wastewater is guilty of water pollution on a global scale. As a result, the study, investigation, and development of green and cheap materials for pollution removal are important and urgent. In this study, DT-NB biochar material from disposable bamboo chopsticks was prepared and applied to adsorb methylene blue dye (MB) in an aqueous solution. It was found that the synthesized DT-NB through the slow pyrolysis at 500oC followed by the ball milling process had a large surface area of 273.11 m2/g and complex pore structures to facilitate the adsorption of MB onto the adsorbent. At pH 10 and an initial MB concentration of 30 mg/L, DT-NB mass for MB removal is 0.3 g in 60 minutes of contact time. Experimental data were well fitted to the Langmuir monolayer adsorption model with the maximum adsorption capacity of 4.12 mg/g, and the kinetics of MB adsorption was described with the pseudo-second order model.
Tóm tắt
Nước thải dệt nhuộm đang là tác nhân gây ô nhiễm nghiêm trọng nguồn nước trên toàn thế giới. Vì thế, việc nghiên cứu, tìm kiếm và phát triển vật liệu xanh, rẻ tiền để loại bỏ phẩm màu là cần thiết và cấp bách. Trong nghiên cứu này, vật liệu than sinh học DT-NB từ đũa tre dùng một lần được điều chế và ứng dụng hấp phụ thuốc nhuộm xanh methylene (MB) trong nước. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy, than DT-NB tạo thành từ nhiệt phân chậm ở 500oC và sau đó được nghiền bi có bề mặt riêng lớn (273,11 m2/g) với cấu trúc lỗ xốp phức tạp, tạo điều kiện thuận lợi cho quá trình hấp phụ MB. Ở pH 10 và nồng độ MB ban đầu 30 mg/L, liều lượng than cần dùng để loại bỏ MB là 0,3 g trong thời gian 60 phút. Dữ liệu thí nghiệm phù hợp với mô hình hấp phụ đơn lớp Langmuir với dung lượng hấp phụ cực đại đạt 4,12 mg/g; và mô hình động học biểu kiến bậc hai phù hợp để giải thích động học quá trình hấp phụ MB.
