The present work examines the possible use of fly ash, a byproduct of coal power stations, as a means of removing phenol from water, or equivalently, of restricting its movement in solid wastes or soil. Equilibrium experiments were performed to evaluate the removal efficiency of fly ash. The adsorption experiments were undertaken using fly ash treated at three different pH levels and with three different temperatures. The results indicate that although phenol can be removed from water, this depends markedly on the temperature and pH value of the treatment solution employed.

Degradation of genipin (GP), a low toxicity natural protein crosslinking agent, in aqueous solution was monitored by HPLC at various pH levels. Degradation of GP was consistent with a mechanism consisting of a first order reaction with a reversible first step. Formation of the intermediate was slowest at more neutral pHs while formation of the irreversible product was correlated to increasing alkalinity. Degradation at all pHs was enhanced by the presence of phosphate ions. Degradation of GP most likely proceeds via the reversible opening of the dihydropyran ring by water followed by irreversible polymerization of the intermediate. Degraded solutions containing no detectable GP or intermediate, however, are still capable of crosslinking proteins.

Anthracite was used as an adsorbent to remove excess phosphate from wastewater. Anthracite used in the present study is environmentally friendly and of cost effective. The adsorption study was carried out using different particle size of adsorbents, different concentration of phosphate solution ranging from 25.0 mg/L to 100.0 mg/L, different pH values ranging from 0.5 to 11.5 along with different adsorbent amount from 1.0 g to 5.0 g. Flow rate was also varied in the range of 0.6 mL/min to 1.8 mL/min. Adsorption column methods show the optimum removal of phosphate under the following conditions: initial phosphate concentration 25 mg/L, initial volume 25.0 mL, flow rate 1.0 mL/min adsorbent amount 2.0 g, particle size, < 90?m. This removal method may provide a solution to the removal phosphate from wastewater in Bangladesh as well as other countries of the world.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/dujs.v60i2.11490 Dhaka Univ.
