Abstract

Cheap and environmental sound biosorbent was made for the adsorption of arsenate using an waste activated sludge. The biosorbents were methylated in 9hours and 24 hours respectively for the better adsorption of arsenate. The amount adsorbed of arsenate(V) increased with increasing methylation time. The specific arsenate adsorption was 0.06mmol As(V)/g biomass when the biosorbent was methylated in 24 hours. The methylated biosorbents were also studied with pH 5, 7 and 9. The pH of the solution affect the amount of adsorption of arsenate of the biosorbent even though it was methylated. The specific arsenate adsorption of the biosorbent at pH 5 was best and it was three times greater than the amount of arsenate adsorbed at pH 9.

비소를 제거하기 위한 경제적이고 친환경적인 생물흡착제 제조를 위해 폐 활성슬러지를 사용하여 생물흡착제로서의 적용성을 검토하였다. 생물흡착제로 사용된 폐 활성슬러지는 비소 흡착능 향상을 위해 각각 9시간과 24시간 메틸화(methylation) 되었고 흡착된 비소는 24시간 메틸화한 활성슬러지가 9시간보다 향상된 결과를 나타내었다. 24시간 메틸화한 활성슬러지의 비비소흡착량(specific As adsorption)은 0.06mmol As(V)/g biomass이고 용액의 pH가 비소에 미치는 영향은 생물흡착제로 사용된 활성슬러지가 메틸화된 후에도 지속되었다. 비소 제거에 대한 pH 영향은 5, 7, 9 세가지 경우에 대해서 조사되었고 이중 pH 5일때 비비소흡착량(specific As adsorption)이 pH 9인 경우보다 3배 큰 비흡착량을 나타내었다.
