The adsorption process using GAC is one of the most secured methods to remove of phosphate from solution. This study was conducted by impregnating Cu(II) to GAC(GAC-Cu) to enhance phosphate adsorption for GAC. In the preparation of GAC-Cu, increasing the concentration of Cu(II) increased the phosphate uptake, confirming the effect of Cu(II) on phosphate uptake. A pH experiment was conducted at pH 4-8 to investigate the effect of the solution pH. Decrease of phosphate removal efficiency was found with increase of pH for both adsorbents, but the reduction rate of GAC-Cu slowed, indicating electrostatic interaction and coordinating bonding were simultaneously involved in phosphate removal. The adsorption was analyzed by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm to determine the maximum phosphate uptake(q_m) and adsorption mechanism. According to correlation of determination(R²), Freundlich isotherm model showed a better fit than Langmuir isotherm model. Based on the negative values of q_m, Langmuir adsorption constant(b), and the value of 1/n, phosphate adsorption was shown to be unfavorable and favorable for GAC and GAC-Cu, respectively. The attempt of the linearization of each isotherm obtained very poor R². Batch kinetic tests verified that ~30% and ~90 phosphate adsorptions were completed within 1h and 24 h, respectively. Pseudo second order(PSO) model showed more suitable than pseudo first order(PFO) because of higher R². Regardless of type of kinetic model, GAC-Cu obtained higher constant of reaction(K) than GAC.

Fe(III)-impregnated activated carbon (Fe-AC) was applied in the treatment of synthetic wastewater containing Cu(II). To investigate the stability of Fe-AC at acidic condition, dissolution of Fe was studied with a variation of solution pH ranging from 2 to 4. Fe-AC was unstable at pH 2, showing a gradual increase of the dissoluted Fe as reaction time increased, while negligible amount of Fe was dissoluted above pH 3. This stability test suggests the applicability of Fe-AC in the treatment of wastewater above pH 3. Adsorption capacity of Cu(II) onto activated carbon (AC) and Fe-AC was investigated in a batch and a column test. In the adsorption kinetics, rapid adsorption of Cu(II) onto AC and Fe-AC was noted at initial reaction time and then reached a near complete equilibrium after 6 hrs. Adsorption trends of Cu(II) onto AC and Fe-AC were similar, showing an increased Cu(II) adsorption at higher pH. Compared with AC, Fe-AC showed a greater Cu(II) adsorption over the entire pH range studied in this research. From the adsorption isotherm obtained with variation of the concentration of Cu(II), the maximum adsorption capacity was identified as 61,700 mg/kg.

The adsorption properties of $Cs^+$ and $Cu^{2+}$ ions were evaluated by using a polysulfone scoria zeolite (PSf-SZ) composite with synthetic zeolite synthesized from Jeju volcanic rocks (scoria). In order to investigate the adsorption properties, various parameters, such as pH, contact time, reaction rate, concentration, and temperature in aqueous solutions, were evaluated by tests carried out in batch experiments. The adsorption capacities of $Cs^+$ and $Cu^{2+}$ ions increased between pH 2 but achieved equilibrium at pH 4 and above. The adsorption rate increased rapidly up to the initial 24 h, after which it plateaued ; the adsorption rate then sustained at equilibrium from 48 h. The adsorption kinetics of $Cs^+$ and $Cu^{2+}$ ions were described better by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model than the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The Langmuir model fitted the adsorption isotherm data better than the Freundlich model. The maximum adsorption capacities of $Cs^+$ and $Cu^{2+}$ ions obtained from the Langmuir model were 53.8 mg/g and 84.7 mg/g, respectively. The calculated thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption of $Cs^+$ and $Cu^{2+}$ ions on PSf-SZ was feasible, spontaneous and endothermic reaction.

The adsorption performance of cupper and zinc ions($Cu^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$) in aqueous solution was investigated by an adsorption process on reagent grade Na-A zeolite(Z-WK) and Na-A zeolite (Z-C1) prepared from coal fly ash. Z-C1 was synthesized by a fusion method with coal fly ash from a thermal power plant. Batch adsorption experiment with Z-C1 was employed to study the kinetics and equilibrium parameters such as initial metal ions concentration and adsorption time of the solution on the adsorption process. Adsorption rate of metal ions occurred rapidly and adsorption equilibrium reached at less than 120 minutes. The kinetics data of $Cu^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ ions were well fitted by a pseudo-second-order kinetics model more than a pseudo-first-order kinetics model. The equilibrium data were well fitted by a Langmuir model and this result showed $Cu^{2+}$ and $Zn^{2+}$ adsorption on Z-C1 would be occupied by a monolayer adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacity($q_{max}$) by the Langmuir model was determined as $Cu^{2+}$ 99.8 mg/g and $Zn^{2+}$ 108.3 mg/g, respectively. It appeared that the synthetic zeolite, Z-C1, has potential application as absorbents in metal ion recovery and mining wastewater.

Removal of Cd(Ⅱ), Zn(Ⅱ) and Cu(Ⅱ) from aqueous solutions using the adsorption process on magadiite has been investigated. It was found that the removal percentage of metal cations at equilibrium increases with increasing temperature, and follows the order of Cd(Ⅱ) > Cu(Ⅱ) > Zn(Ⅱ). Equilibrium modeling of adsorption showed that the adsorptions of Cd(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), and Zn(Ⅱ) were fitted to Langmuir isotherm. Kinetic modeling of the adsorption showed that first order reversible kinetic model fitted to experimental data. From kinetic model and equilibrium data, the overall rate constant (k) and the equilibrium constant (K) for the adsorption process were calculated. The overall rates of adsorption of metal ions follow the order of Cd(Ⅱ) > Cu(Ⅱ) > Zn(Ⅱ). From the results of thermodynamic analysis, standard Gibbs free energy (ΔG°), standard enthalpy (ΔH°), and standard entropy (ΔS°) of adsorption process were calculated.

본 연구에서는 PRE의 반응물질로 음식물 쓰레기 처리과정에서 발생하는 음식물 쓰레기 탄화재(CFW, Carbonized Foods Waste)를 적용하고자 회분석 흡착실험(Batch test)을 실시하였다. 중금속 구리와 아연에 대한 흡착특성 분석을 위해 CFW를 이용한 개별 및 경쟁흡착 특성을 확인하고자 하였다. 개별흡착 실험에서는 Langmuir와 Freundlich 모델에 적용하여 흡착평형을 예측한 결과 Langmuir의 모델에 더 일치하였고 최대흡착량은 구리가 더 많았다. 유사일치반응과 유사이차반응모델을 이용한 흡착물질의 흡착속도를 비교한 결과 아연의 반응속도가 구리보다 빨랐다. CFW를 이용한 중금속 제거는 구리보다 아연이 먼저 제거가 될 것으로 판단된다. 한편 구리와 아연과의 경쟁흡착 비율이 유사하면 아연의 흡착량이 떨어지는 특성을 보였다. 구리용액에 이연을 혼합한 경우, CFW에 구리의 흡착은 86%이고, 아연용액에 구리를 혼합한 경우에는 이연의 흡착이 19%로 나타났다. 따라서, 복합 중금속으로 오염된 지반의 효율적인 오염제거를 위해서는 각 중금속의 정화특성이 고려되어야 할 것으로 판단된다.

We have investigated the adsorption and reaction of Cu(hfac)(vtms) on Cu(111) surface using TPD. The recombinative desorption of Cu(hfac)(vtms) reversibly occurs between 240 and 340K. The remaining Cu(hfac) after the desorption of vtms preferentially undergo the desorption between 330 and 370K as intact Cu(hfac) than the disproportionation reaction. The disprportionation reaction between adsorbed Cu(hfac) was observed to occur between 420 and 520K with an activation energy of 34~37 kcal/mol. the geometries and adsorption sites of Cu(hfac) have been also calculated by means of extended H ckel method. It is found that standing Cu(hfac) is more stable than lying-down Cu(hfac) on the Cu(111) surface and the Cu(hfac) molecule prefers to adsorb on the hollow site over the top or bridge sites. We also have investigated the surface modification effect by preadsorbed I and Na atoms on the reaction Cu(hfac)(vtms).

Waste citrus peel-based activated carbon (WCAC) was prepared from waste citrus peels by activation with KOH. The removal of Cu and Pb ions from aqueous solution by the prepared WCAC was investigated in batch experiments. The solution pH significantly influenced Cu and Pb adsorption capacity and the optimum pH was 4 to 6. The adsorption of Cu and Pb ions by WCAC followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity calculated by Langmuir isotherm model was 31.91 mg/g for Cu and 92.22 mg/g for Pb. As the temperature was increased from 303 K to 323 K, the ${\Delta}G^{\circ}$ value decreased from -7.01 to -8.57 kJ/mol for Cu ions and from -0.87 to -2.06 kJ/mol for Pb ions. These results indicated that the adsorption of Cu and Pb by WCAC is a spontaneous process.

본 연구에서는 바이오폴리머의 일종인 베타글루칸을 구연산과 교차결합하여 수용액 내에서 불용성인 흡착제(crosslinked β-glucan, CBG)롤 제조하였으며, FTIR과 SEM-EDX를 이용하여 CBG의 특성평가와 납과 구리 흡착특성을 파악하기 위한 pH에 따른 흡착량 변화, 흡착속도, 등온흡착 실험을 진행하였다. 특성평가 결과, 베타글루칸과 구연산의 교차결합 메커니즘을 파악하였으며, CBG 표면에서의 납과 구리 흡착을 확인하였다. 수용액 pH에 의한 흡착량 변화 실험에서는 pH 6에서 가장 높은 납과 구리 흡착량을 보였으며, pH 3이하에서는 급격한 감소를 보였다. 또한 흡착속도 실험 결과 CBG에 의한 납과 구리 흡착은 유사 2차 반응속도식과 내부확산식을 따르는 것을 확인하였고, 등온흡착 실험에서는 Langmuir식을 따라 납과 구리 최대흡착량이 각각 59.70, 23.44 mg/g임을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 구연산을 이용하여 베타글루칸을 수용액 내 흡착제로 이용하는 방법을 제시하고자 하였으며, 연구결과에 따라 CBG는향후 친환경적인 중금속 흡착제로서의 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.
