본 연구에서는 생물흡착제인 미역을 사용하여 인공폐액내의 중금속의 흡착 특성을 조사하였으며, 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 미역 폐기물을 이용하여 제조된 생물흡착제의 단일 중금속 흡착효율은 각 중금속 100 mg/L인 용액에 biosorbent 3g을 처리했을 때 Pb는 거의 100%였고, Cu와 Cd가 약 $85{\sim}86%$, Zn과 Cr은 약 $60{\sim}64%$, Co와 Ni은 약 57%, Mn은 약 48%였다. 복합중금속 흡착효율은 단일중금속 흡착효율에 비하여 Pb를 제외한 다른 중금속들은 크게 감소되었으나 biosorbent g당 전체 중금속 흡착량은 더 증가되었다. 온도, pH에 따른 중금속 흡착효율은 별 차이가 없었으며 전반적으로 pH는 pH $5{\sim}6$ 범위, 온도는 $20{\sim}30^{\circ}C$ 범위의 실온이 적당한 것으로 나타났다. 생물흡착제의 흡착평형은 모든 중금속이 1시간 이내에 이루어졌다. Freundlich과 Langmuir 등온흡착식을 구하여 실제폐수처리에 적용여부를 검토한 결과 Pb, Cu, Cr, Cd, Co 순으로 비교적 친화도가 큰 것으로 나타났고, Freundlich 등온 흡착식에 가장 잘 일치하였다. 모든 중금속의 Freundlich 지수 1/n값이 $0.1{\sim}0.5$ 범위에 포함되어 흡착이 용이하고, Pb, Cr, Cu, Cd 순으로 비교적 평형 흡착량이 큰 것으로 나타났으며, 이 결과는 Langmuir 흡착등온식의 결과와 거의 유사하였다. 따라서, 중금속 농도범위에 따른 한계범위를 설정하여 등온흡착식을 적용시키면 매우 높은 중금속 처리효율을 나타낼 것으로 판단된다. 생물흡착제가 중금속 흡착 후의 구조적인 특성을 조사하기 위하여 FT-IR분석 결과, 중금속 이온과 치환될 것으로 생각되는 functional group을 확인할 수 있었으며, 3,400/cm에서의 -OH group, 1,648/cm에서의 C=O bond,1,426/cm에서의 C-O bond그리고 850/cm에서의 S=O등이 전반적으로 중금속 흡착 후에 peak가 커지는 것이 관찰되었다. 생물흡착제의 재사용 가능성을 검토하기 위하여 최적의 중금속 탈착조건 검토하였는데, 탈착제 종류에 따른 중금속 탈착효율은 탈착제 종류와 중금속 종류에 따라 차이가 있었고, 전반적으로 NTA>$H_2SO_4$>HCl>EDTA 순으로 우수하였으며, 전체적으로 특정 중금속의 탈착효율이 떨어지지 않는 NTA가 탈착제로 가장 적합하였다. NTA농도에 따른 중금속 탈착효율은 NTA $0.1{\sim}0.3%$ 농도범위에서는 농도 증가에 따라 탈착 효율도 약간 증가되었으나 그 이상의 농도에서는 별 차이 없었다. 온도와 pH 변화에 따른 중금속 탈착효율은 Cr을 제외한 다른 중금속들은 크게 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났으며 전반적으로 온도는 $30^{\circ}C$, pH는 2에서 높았다. 탈착제 접촉 반응시간에 따른 탈착효율은 10분 이내에 전체 탈착량의 80%이상이 탈착 되었으며 1시간 이후에는 거의 변화가 없었다.

카올리나이트 KGa-2 (표준 점토)의 인산염 흡착-탈착 특성을 규명하기 위하여 벳치(batch) 흡착 실험을 실시하였으며, 흡착 상태를 알아보기 위하여 ATR-FTIR (Attenuated Total Reflectance-Fourier Transform Infrared) 분광분석을 실시하였다. 인의 함량은 UV-VIS-IR 분광분석 기를 사용하여 측정하였으며, 이 때 파장은 820 nm를 이용하였다. pH 4에서 pH 9 범위 내에서 카올리나이트 KGa-2의 인산염 흡착량은 pH가 증가하면 대체적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내지만, 인산염 농도에 따라 매우 다른 형태를 보여준다. 카올리나이트 KGa-2의 인산염 흡착 특성은 랑미어 흡착등온선, 템킨 흡착등온선, 프로인드리히 흡착등온선 순으로 잘 부합하며, 랑미어 최대 흡착능은 $204.1{\sim}256.5\;mg/kg$, 평균간은 232.5 mg/kg으로서, 카올리나이트 KGa-1b에 비하여 높은 인산염 흡착능을 가진다. 카올리나이트에 흡착된 대부분의 인산염이 탈착되기보다, 광물 내에 고착되는 경향을 나타내지만 이에 대해서는 후속적인 실험이 필요한 것으로 판단된다. ATR${\sim}$FTIR 스펙트럼에서 카올리나이트에 의한 흡수피크의 위치가 인 피크와 거의 중첩되고, 카올리나이트에 의한 흡수 피크의 강도가 인 피크에 비하여 월등히 크기 때문에 카올리나이트에 흡착된 인에 의한 피크를 카올리나이트 자체에 의한 피크로부터 분리하는 것이 거의 불가능하였다.

Arsenic is a highly toxic element, and its contamination is widespread around the world. The natural materials with high selectivity and efficiency toward pollutants are important in wastewater treatment technology. In this study, the mesoporous synthetic hectorite was synthesized by facile hydrothermal crystallization of gels comprising silica, magnesium hydroxide, and lithium fluoride. Additionally, the naturally available clay was modified using zirconium at room temperature. Both synthetic and modified natural clays were employed in the removal of arsenate from aquatic environments. The materials were fully characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform-infrared (FT-IR) analyses. The synthesized materials were used to remove arsenic (V) under varied physicochemical conditions. Both materials, i.e., Zr-bentonite and Zr-hectorite, showed high percentage removal of arsenic (V) at lower pH, and the efficiency decreased in an alkaline medium. The equilibrium-state sorption data agrees well with the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms, and the maximum sorption capacity is found to be 4.608 and 2.207 mg/g for Zr-bentonite and Zr-hectorite, respectively. The kinetic data fits well with the pseudo-second order kinetic model. Furthermore, the effect of the background electrolytes study indicated that arsenic (V) is specifically sorbed at the surface of these two nanocomposites. This study demonstrated that zirconium intercalated synthetic hectorite as well as zirconium modified natural clays are effective and efficient materials for the selective removal of arsenic (V) from aqueous medium.

The objective of this work is to study the feasibility of the preparation of the activated carbon (AC) from coconut tree flowers using high temperature fluidized bed reactor (HTFBR). The activating agent used in this work is steam. The reactor was operated at various activation temperature (650, 700, 750, 800 and $850^{\circ}C$) and activation time (30, 60, 120 and 240 min) for the production of AC from coconut tree flowers. Effect of activation time and activation temperature on the quality of the AC preparation was observed. Prepared AC was characterized in-terms of iodine number, methylene blue number, methyl violet number, ethylene glycol mono ethyl ether (EGME) surface area and SEM photographs. The best quality of AC from coconut tree flowers (CFC) was obtained at an activation temperature and time of $850^{\circ}C$ and 1 hr restectively. The effectiveness of carbon prepared from coconut tree flowers in adsorbing crystal violet from aqueous solution has been studied as a function of agitation time, carbon dosage, and pH. The adsorption of crystal violet onto AC followed second order kinetic model. Adsorption data were modeled using both Langmuir and Freundlich classical adsorption isotherms. The adsorption capacity $q_m$ was 277.78 mg/g., equilibrium time was found to be 180 min. This adsorbent from coconut tree flowers was found to be effective for the removal of CV dye.

Microplastics are generated by the breakdown of plastic wastes in agricultural soil and residual pesticides in agricultural soil can adsorb on microplastics. In this study, the sorption characteristics of procymidone (PCM) and one of its metabolites, 3,5-dichloroaniline (DCA), on low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) microplastics were investigated. The sorption and desorption tests were carried out for 72 h using LDPE or PVC microplastic films to study the sorption isotherms of PCM and DCA and kinetics for sorption and desorption of PCM. The results show that the sorption data of PCM and DCA were better described by the Freundlich isotherm model (R²=0.7568-0.9915) than the Langmuir isotherm model (R²=0.0545-0.5889). The sorption potential of PVC for both PCM and DCA was greater than that of LDPE. The sorption data of PCM on PVC and LDPE were fitted better to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model than the pseudo-first-order kinetic model. The PCM sorption on LDPE was about three times faster than that on PVC. Both microplastic films released the sorbed PCM back to water, and more PCM was released from PVC than LDPE, but the desorption rate was faster with LDPE than PVC. Overall, the results show that different microplastics have different sorption characteristics for different chemicals. Also, the sorbed chemicals can be released back to environment suggesting the potential of contaminant spread by microplastics. Thus, the management practices of microplastics in agricultural soil need to consider their interaction with the chemical contaminants in soil.

Laboratory-scale experiments were carried out to investigate the adsorption equilibrium, the adsorption kinetics and facilitated transport of two cationic dyes (Methylene Blue (MB) and Rhodamine B (RB)) on Polymer Inclusion Membrane (D2EHPA-PIM). Different adsorption isotherms (Freundlich, Langmuir and Temkin models) as well as kinetics models indicated that the adsorption process is spontaneous and exothermic. Under the optimal conditions, the adsorption removal efficiencies reach about 93% and 97% for MB and RB respectively. Different extraction values by D2EHPA-PIM were obtained for the two cationic dyes: MB is weakly extracted at pH 2.0 (E% = 18.7%) whilst E% = 82.4% was observed for RB at the same pH. This difference was exploited in a mixture containg both the 2 cationic dyes for the selective extraction of RB at pH 2. Desorption of both dyes was achieved from the membrane by using acidic aqueous solutions and desorption ratio up to 90% was obtained. The formulas of the extracted complexes by the PIMs were, determined by the method of slopes. The dyes transport was elucidated using mass transfer analysis where in it found relatively high values of the initial flux ($J_0$) as 41.57 and $18.74{\mu}mol.m^2.s^{-1}$ for MB and RB respectively.

This study examined the influence of operating parameters on the electrosorptive recovery system of lithium ions from aqueous solutions using a spinel-type lithium manganese oxide adsorbent electrode and investigated the electrosorption kinetics and isotherms. The results revealed that the electrosorption data of lithium ions from the lithium containing aqueous solution were well-fitted to the Langmuir isotherm at electrical potentials lower than -0.4 V and to the Freundlich isotherm at electrical potentials higher than -0.4 V. This result may due to the formation of a thicker electrical double layer on the surface of the electrode at higher electrical potentials. The results showed that the electrosorption reached equilibrium within 200 min under an electrical potential of -1.0 V, and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model was correlated with the experimental data. Moreover, the adsorption of lithium ions was dependent on pH and temperature, and the results indicate that higher pH values and lower temperatures are more suitable for the electrosorptive adsorption of lithium ions from aqueous solutions. Thermodynamic results showed that the calculated activation energy of $22.61kJ\;mol^{-1}$ during the electrosorption of lithium ions onto the adsorbent electrode was primarily controlled by a physical adsorption process. The recovery of adsorbed lithium ions from the adsorbent electrode reached the desorption equilibrium within 200 min under reverse electrical potential of 3.5 V.

Heavy metals, such as vanadium, are some of the most toxic types of water contaminants. In this study, vanadium was removed using a new composite adsorbent called BAZLSC. The impacts of pH and initial concentration of vanadium(V) on the elimination effectiveness of this metal by using BAZLSC were investigated in the first step of the study. Vanadium removal increased as pH increased to 3-3.5, and initial concentration increased to 60-70 mg/L. The removal efficiency then decreased. Central composite design and response surface methodology were employed to examine experimental data. Initial concentration of V ($mg.L^{-1}$), pH, and dosage of adsorbent (g/L) were the independent factors. Based on RSM, the removal effectiveness of vanadium was 86.36% at the optimum of initial concentration (52.69 mg/L), pH (3.49), and adsorbent dosage (1.71 g/L). Also adsorption isotherm investigations displayed that the Freundlich isotherm could explain vanadium adsorption by BAZLSC better than the Langmuir isotherm. Beside them, desorption studies showed sorption was slightly diminished after six continuous cycles.

In this research, equilibrium of adsorption and kinetics of As(V) removal were investigated. The coal mine drainage sludge(CMDS) was used as adsorbent. To find out the physical and chemical properties of CMDS, XRD (X-ray diffraction), XRF (X-ray fluorescence spectrometer) analysis were carried out. The CMDS was consist of 70% of goethite and 30% of calcite. From the results, an adsorption mechanism of As(V) with CMDS was dominated by iron oxides. Langmuir adsorption isotherm model was fitted well more than Freundlich isotherm adsorption model. Adsorption capacities of CMDS 1 was not different with CMDS 2 on aspect of amounts of arsenic adsorbed. The maximum adsorption amount of two CMDS were respectively 40.816, 39.682 mg/g. However, the kinetic of two CMDS was different. The kinetic was followed pseudo second order model than pseudo first order model. Concentrations of arsenic in all segments of the polymer in CMDS 2 does not have a constant value, but the rate was greater than the value of CMDS 1. Therefore, CMDS 2, which is containing polymer, is more effective for adsorbent to remove As(V).
