The removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solutions onto modified holly sawdust was studied at varying initial hexavalent chromium concentrations, adsorbent doses, pHs and contact times. The removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solutions increased with increasing adsorbent dosage and contact time. The percentage of hexavalent chromium removed from the aqueous solutions decreased with increasing hexavalent chromium concentration and pH of the solution. The kinetics of the adsorption of hexavalent chromium onto modified holly sawdust was analyzed using pseudo first-order and pseudo second-order models. The pseudo second-order model described the kinetics of adsorption of hexavalent chromium. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were used for modeling of the adsorption equilibrium data. The Langmuir isotherm model well described the equilibrium data for the removal of hexavalent chromium by modified holly sawdust. The obtained maximum adsorption capacity was 18.86 mg/g at pH 7. The results showed that modified holly sawdust can be used as a low cost adsorbent for the treatment of aqueous solutions containing chromium.

The possibility of using carica papaya leaf powder for removal of copper from wastewater as a low cost adsorbent was explored. Different parameters that affect the adsorption process like initial concentration of metal ion, time of contact, adsorbent quantity and pH were evaluated and the outcome of the study was tested using adsorption isotherm models. A maximum of 90%-94.1% copper removal was possible from wastewater having low concentration of the metal using papaya leaf powder under optimum conditions by conducting experimental studies. The biosorption of copper ion was influenced by pH and outcome of experimental results indicate the optimum pH as 7.0 for maximum copper removal. Copper distribution between the solid and liquid phases in batch studies was described by isotherms like Langmuir adsorption and Freundlich models. The adsorption process was better represented by the Freundlich isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity of copper was measured to be 24.51 mg/g through the Langmuir model. Pseudo-second order rate equation was better suited for the adsorption process. A dynamic mode study was also conducted to analyse the ability of papaya leaf powder to remove copper (II) ions from aqueous solution and the breakthrough curve was described by an S profile. Present study revealed that papaya leaf powder can be used for the removal of copper from the wastewater and low cost water treatment techniques can be developed using this adsorbent.

Cylindrical shape extrudates of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) were prepared using different percentages of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) / sodium alginate (SA) mixtures as binders and an aqueous solution containing 6% $H_3BO_3$ and 3% $CaCl_2$ was used as a cross linking agent. As the quantity of alginate increases, the phosphate removal efficiency and capacity were decreased. Among four different extrudate samples, the sample prepared by 8% PVA + 2% SA showed the highest phosphate removal efficiency (59.59%) and capacity (29.97 mg/g) at an initial phosphate concentration of 100 ppm and 2.0 g/L adsorbent dosage. Effects of the adsorbent dosage, contact time and initial phosphate concentration on the sample were further studied. The removal efficiency and capacity obtained by a 4.0 g/L adsorbent dose at an initial phosphate concentration of 100 ppm in 3 h were 79.38% and 19.96 mg/g, respectively. The experimental data of kinetic and isotherm measurements followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation and Langmuir isotherm model, respectively. These results suggested that the phosphate removal was processed via a chemisorption and a monolayer coverage of phosphate anions was on the CSH surface. The maximum adsorption capacity ($q_{max}$) was calculated as 23.87 mg/g from Langmuir isotherm model.

A study on the removal of mercury and lead by microorganisms, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Aureobasidium pullulans, was performed, in which the comparison of adsorption model between these two heavy metals was done. The amounts of mercury removed were more than those of lead in both microorganisms. In case of mercury, the adsorption isotherm of S. cerevisiae was accorded with Langmuir model but A. pullulans was followed to Freundlich model. In the case of lead, however, the adsorption isotherm had opposite results. The adsorption rate of mercury to S. cerevisiae was faster than that of A. pullulans, but in the case of lead, it revealed contrary results. It seems, therefore, that the type of microorganisms used as biosorbents should be selected differently with the type of heavy metals removed for applying these to real adsorption process.

본 연구는 hydroxyapatite(HAP) 첨가 활성탄(HAP sorbent)의 카드뮴에 대한 흡착특성을 조사하였다. HAP 첨가량의 변화에 따른 카드뮴의 제거특성은 HAP 첨가량이 증가 할수록 카드뮴의 제거량은 흡착에 의한 영향으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 HAP에 의한 이온교환능력의 증가에 의한 것으로 사료된다. 동역학적 흡착과 흡착평형에 관한 연구는 연속적인 회분식 실험을 통하여 조사하였다. 조사된 흡착평형 데이터는 Langmuir와 Freundlich isotherm mode을 사용하여 살펴보았으며, 초기 흡착질의 농도 변화에 따른 HAP 첨가 활성탄의 카드뮴의 흡착은 Freundlich isotherm model에 적합한 것으로 나타났다. Cd의 흡착반응의 동역학적 연구를 위하여 유사 1차 반응속도와 유사 2차 반응속도 모델을 사용하 Cd 흡착반응의 흡착 메커니즘을 조사하였다. 유사 2차 반응속도를 따르며, 유사 2차 반응속도 상수는 활성탄에 HAP의 첨가량이 증가할수록 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, intraparticle diffusion model을 사용하여 수용액상의 흡착질과 흡착매질과의 흡착 메커니즘을 조사하였다. 수용액상 카드뮴의 흡착 메커니즘은 흡착질과 흡착매질에서 표면흡착반응과 입자내 확산이 동시에 일어나는 것으로 확인되었다.

NaA 제올라이트 분말(Z-PA) 및 펠렛(Z-BA)를 이용하여 수중의 Sr 이온의 흡착특성을 검토하였다. 회분식 실험에서 Z-BA와 Z-PA에 의한 Sr 이온의 흡착은 유사 1차식보다는 유사 2차식에 잘 부합되었고, 등온 흡착실험 결과는 Langmuir 등온식에 잘 부합하였으며, 이 등온식으로부터 구한 최대 흡착량은 Z-PA는 233.32 mg/g, Z-BA는 164.60 mg/g이었다. 연속식 실험에서 Sr 이온의 농도가 증가함에 따라 Sr 이온의 총 흡착량(q)는 증가하였으나 파과시간, 처리 부피($V_{eff}$) 및 총 제거율(R)은 감소하였다. 실험으로부터 구한 파과곡선은 Thomas 모델식에 의해 잘 모사되었다.

자연에서 쉽게 구할 수 있는 저비용 재료인 칼슘샌드와 화강풍화토에 의한 카드뮴 흡착의 동력학적 특성과 등온흡착 특성에 관한 회분식 실험을 수행하였다. 칼슘샌드와 화강풍화토의 pH는 각각 9.51과 6.33으로 나타났으며 칼슘샌드에 의한 중금속 흡착시에는 pH 증가에 따른 침전효과가 있을 것으로 나타났다. 아세테이트 완충용액을 사용하여 pH가 5.0~5.3으로 일정하게 유지되는 조건에서 카드뮴 초기농도가 20 mg/L일 때, 칼슘샌드와 화강풍화토에 의한 카드뮴 흡착의 동력학적 거동은 유사 이차반응을 따르는 것으로 나타났다. 유사 이차 반응속도 모델을 적용할 때 칼슘샌드와 화강풍화토의 카드뮴 흡착의 결정계수는 0.999이며 평형흡착량($q_e$)은 각각 2.10와 2.16 mg/g으로 나타났다. 카드뮴의 등온흡착 특성은 Freundlich 모델에 의해 적절하게 설명될 수 있는 것으로 나타나 흡착소재의 카드뮴 흡착은 비균일한 표면에서 이루어지는 다층 흡착인 것으로 나타났다.

This study examined the adsorption of a synthetic cutting fluid and cutting fluid effluent on chitosan and SDS-modified chitosan, Chitosan and SDS-modified chitosan were prepared in form of beads and fibers. A series of batch experiments were carried out as a function of the initial concentration of cutting fluid, contact time and pH of the fluid. The contact angle study suggested that the SDS-modified chitosan was more hydrophobic than chitosan. The Zeta potential study showed that chitosan, SDS-modified chitosan and synthetic cutting fluid had a point of zero charge (PZC) at pH 7.8, 9 and 3.2, respectively. SDS-modified chitosan has a greater adsorption capacity than chitosan. The experimental results show that adsorption capacity of the cutting fluid on 1.0 g of SDS-modified chitosan at pH 3 and for a contact time of 120 min was approximately 2,500 g/kg. The adsorption capacity of chitosan and SDS-modified chitosan increased with decreasing pH. The Langmuir, Freundlich, and Brunauer Emmett and Teller (BET) adsorption models were used to explain the adsorption isotherm. The Langmuir isotherm fitted well with the experimental data of chitosan while the BET isotherm fitted well with the SDS-modified chitosan data. Pseudo first- and second-order kinetic models and intraparticle diffusion model were used to examine the kinetic data. The experimental data was fitted well to a pseudo second-order kinetic model. The significant uptake of cutting fluid on chitosan and SDS-modified chitosan were demonstrated by FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM and heat of combustion.

국내 하수처리장 인 방류기준이 강화되어 다양한 방법의 인 제거기술이 적용되고 있다. 흡착은 비교적 간단하면서 효과적으로 인을 제거할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 흡착제인 Fe-Mn-Si oxide와 Fe-Mn oxide을 개발하여, 인 제거효율을 검토하였으며 이 흡착제에 대하여 Kinetic과 Isotherm모델을 비교하였다. 두 흡착제의 최대흡착양은 각각 47.8, 35.5 mg-$PO{_4}^{3-}/g$이었고, 이들은 낮은 pH에서 효과적으로 흡착하였다. Freundlish isotherm 모델이 Langmuir 모델보다 Fe-Mn-Si oxide의 흡착에 더 적합했다. 이온성 용액은 인이 흡착되는 과정에서 음이온들과 경쟁관계로 흡착능이 감소되었다. 비록 음이온과 humic물질들로부터 흡착에 영향을 받지만 Fe-Mn-Si oxide는 Fe-Mn oxide보다 흡착능이 크게 나타났다.
