Destructive Adsorption Mechanisms for the Treatment of Dye Wastewater by Nanoscale Magnesium OxideLing, Chia-ning 14 February 2007 (has links)
This study was to prepare nanoscale MgO using the homogeneous precipitation process and to investigate its destructive adsorption with dye wastewater of reactive black-5 and reactive blue-19. In addition, UV-vis Spectrophotometer, Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry (MALDI-TOF/MS) and Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS) were used to analyze the intermediates resulting from destructive adsorption. Based on the results obtained, the destructive adsorption mechanisms for the treatment of dye wasterwater by nanoscale MgO were proposed in this study.
In this work, the optimal operating conditions for nanoscale MgO synthesis were determined to be the following: (1) a chemical reaction time of 7 hr, (2) reaction temperature of 125¢J, (3) molar ratio of 9 for urea/MgCl2¡D6H2O, (4) water addition of 250 mL, (5) mixing intensity of 90 strokes per min, (6) calcination at 450¢J for 4 hr, (7) reflux time of 24 hr, (8) freeze-drying method, (9) two stage calcinations. Using these operating conditions one is able to prepare 2-D nanoscale MgO of hexagonal platelets with a thickness of 20-30 nm and BET surface area of 120-125 m2/g.
The adsorption model of nanoscale MgO for RB-5 and RB-19 was fitted to the Langmuir equation and their adsorption capacity were 196.08 mg/g and 163.93 mg/g, respectively. Both of them were fitted to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model equation. The optimal operating conditions of nanoscale MgO for destructive adsorption of both dyes were determined to be the following: (1) an initial dye concentration of 1000 mg/L, (2) a nanoscale MgO dose of 15 g/L, (3) a vigorous mixing of 30 min, (4) no need of system pH adjustment. Under such conditions, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and American Dye Manufacturers Institute (ADMI) of RB-5 and RB-19 were lower than the textile effluent standards.
According to the UV-vis spectrophotometer scanning results, the color removal of nanoscale MgO for RB-5 and RB-19 was good. At the same time, the absorbance of their second maximal peaks was decreased and some peaks were observed. Therefore, it proved that the model dyes were destroyed. Experimental results have shown that nanoscale MgO has a better performance of destructive adsorption on RB-5 than that of RB-19. This might be ascribed to the following reasons: (1) a greater molecular weight, (2) a longer molecule structure, (3) more sulfate ethyl sulfone groups for RB-5, and (4) a hard to be destroyed structure of anthraquinone for RB-19.
The destructive adsorption of dye wastewater by nanoscale MgO presumably took place mainly on the surface active sites of nanoscale MgO, including anion/cation vacancies, superoxide anion, edge, corner, isolated OH, lattice bound OH and assiocited-OH groups. According to the results of MALDI-TOF/MS and GC/MS analysis, the relevant reaction mechanism for RB-5 could be divided into three stages: (1) adsorption and water-soluble groups exfoliation stage, (2) chromophor decomposition and decolorization stage, and (3) further degradation stage for light-color intermediates. On the other hand, the relevant reaction mechanism for RB-19 might involve only the adsorption and auxochrome exfoliation stage and chromophor decomposition and decolorization stage.
