Ammonium Removal

This study is aimed to evaluate the ability of magnesium oxide-coated carbonized rice hull (MCRH) material for ammonium removal in synthetic and real domestic wastewater. The MCRH material was prepared using waste rice hull from a household rice-processing factory and magnesium chloride salt via a simple mixing and annealing method. The material was then characterized by scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The effects of magnesium chloride modification and environmental condition such as initial ammonium concentration (20 – 100 mg/L), amount of adsorbent (0.8 –2.0 g/L), and adsorption time (0 –32 h) on the ammonium removal efficiency and adsorption capacity were investigated. Adsorption kinetic and isotherms were also studied for MCRH material. Results showed that magnesium oxide was successfully coated on carbonized rice hull with Mg/C molar ratio of 0.22. Ammonium adsorption isotherm fitted well to Langmuir model with maximum adsorption capacity of 65.36 mg/g. The adsorption was physical process and adsorption kinetic was best described by intra-particle diffusion model with the correlation coefficients ranged from 0.942 – 0.979. Ammonium removal feasibility of MCRH was proved through the treatment of real domestic wastewater containing 80.7±1.6 mg/L initial ammonia concentration with removal efficiency reached 86.8% and the effluent concentration met the allowable value (10 mg/L) as given by QCVN 14 : 2008/BTNMT (column B) - National technical regulation on domestic wastewater. Hence MCRH is potential as a cheap and abundant material in Vietnam and the material after adsorption accumulated ammonium would be the source of fertilizer for soil quality improvement.

Information about the influence of zeolite used as adsorbent to reduce the concentration of Lead and Cadmium in separate links of trophic chain of hydroecosystem namelyn in water, phytoplankton and muscular tissue of Silver carp is given in the article. As a sorbent we used zeolite of Sokirnitsa deposit (village Sokirnitsa, Khust district Transcarpathian region) of fraction 1.0 – 4.0 mm. Investigations were made at the Lviv research station of Institute of fisheries NAAS (Lviv oblast, Horodok region, Velykyi Lyubin). The sorption properties of natural Transcarpathian clinoptilolite towards Lead and Cadmium at dynamic conditions have been studied. The paper represents research results aimed at estimating effectiveness of removing of Lead and Cadmium ions from hydroecosystems using natural mineral–zeolite. The dynamics of heavy metals content at phytoplankton and muscular tissue of silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix Valenciennes, 1844) was studied. Measurements were perfomed in pond № 24 (12) area 0.14 hectares which is fed by waters of the river Vereshchytsia. The pond depth is 1 – 1.5 meters.  Results of investigations worked out statistically combining the groups. Considerable lowering of ions content of both metals in water was determined. The lowering of cadmium content in muscular tissue of Silver carp was much noticeable than the content of Lead. Results of such investigations are rather actual and perspective and will help to reduce the content of some toxicants in water medium. Improvement of water ecosystems after use of natural sorbents will guarantee ecologically safe products of fish culture and will increase the efficiency of the branch.

In recent years, the interest in waste water treatment increased to preserve the environment. The objective of this study is the removal of lead and cadmium ions from aqueous solution by treated Phragmites biomass (TPB). TPB was characterized by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDS) which indicates the presence of functional groups that may be responsible of metal adsorption such as hydroxyl, carbonyl, sulfonate and carboxylate. Characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and surface area analysis using the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method (BET) illustrated that TPB is nonporous with a small surface area. The influences of various experimental factors were investigated; the proposed method recommended the extraction of Pb+2 and Cd+2 metal ions by TPB at pH 5.0. A contact time of 60 and 45 min was required for the adsorption 50 mL (50 ppm) Pb+2 and Cd+2 respectively to reach equilibrium when 0.10 g TPB was used. The optimum TPB dosage was 0.20 g for adsorption both metal ions when adsorbate solution was 50 mL (50 ppm). Particle sizes of 0.125–0.212 mm showed the best metal ion removal of both metal ions. Thermodynamic study illustrated that both metal ions correlate more with Langmuir isotherm. Furthermore, chemisorption of Pb+2 and Cd+2 on TPB was more likely according to kinetic study data.

Removal Of Heavy Metals

This study reports the adsorption capacity of lead Pb2+ and cadmium Cd2+ of biochar obtained from: peanut shell (BCM), “chonta” pulp (BCH) and corn cob (BZM) calcined at 500, 600 and 700 °C, respectively. The optimal adsorbent dose, pH, maximum adsorption capacity and adsorption kinetics were evaluated. The biochar with the highest Pb2+ and Cd2+ removal capacity is obtained from the peanut shell (BCM) calcined at 565 °C in 45 min. The optimal experimental conditions were: 14 g L−1 (dose of sorbent) and pH between 5 and 7. The sorption experimental data were best fitted to the Freundlich isotherm model. High removal rates were obtained: 95.96% for Pb2+ and 99.05. for Cd2+. The BCH and BZM revealed lower efficiency of Pb2+ and Cd2+ removal than BCM biochar. The results suggest that biochar may be useful for the removal of heavy metals (Pb2+ and Cd2+) from drinking water.
