Abstract
In this study, we synthesized the β-Cyclodextrin (CD) and Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CC) functionalized LDH/rGO nanocomposites for the efficient uptake of selenium ions at a neutral pH. The surface morphology and physical properties of the nanocomposites were characterized using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM), Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy (EDAX), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and N2 adsorption-desorption analysis. Equilibrium adsorption experiments were carried out to optimize crucial parameters such as contact time (60–360 min), adsorbent dosage (0.01–0.1 g/L), and pH (2−11) for efficient selenium ion removal. Kinetic and isotherm studies were conducted to analyze the sorption performance of the nanocomposites. The Langmuir isotherm model provided an excellent fit for the adsorption data (R2 ≥ 0.99), confirming the monolayer adsorption of selenium ions on the adsorbent surface. The maximum adsorption capacity of CC and CD composites was calculated for Se (IV) adsorption as 248.75 mg g−1 and 275.48 mg g−1, for Se (VI) adsorption as 153.37 mg g−1 and 169.64 mg g−1. Additionally, adsorption kinetics was assessed using the pseudo-second-order model, yielding high correlation coefficients (R2 ≥ 0.98). Moreover, the adsorption mechanism, regeneration ability, and the impact of co-existing anions were investigated. Our findings demonstrate the effectiveness of the CD and CC incorporated LDH/rGO biocomposites in selenium ion removal.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Water Process Engineering aims to publish refereed, high-quality research papers with significant novelty and impact in all areas of the engineering of water and wastewater processing . Papers on advanced and novel treatment processes and technologies are particularly welcome. The Journal considers papers in areas such as nanotechnology and biotechnology applications in water, novel oxidation and separation processes, membrane processes (except those for desalination) , catalytic processes for the removal of water contaminants, sustainable processes, water reuse and recycling, water use and wastewater minimization, integrated/hybrid technology, process modeling of water treatment and novel treatment processes. Submissions on the subject of adsorbents, including standard measurements of adsorption kinetics and equilibrium will only be considered if there is a genuine case for novelty and contribution, for example highly novel, sustainable adsorbents and their use: papers on activated carbon-type materials derived from natural matter, or surfactant-modified clays and related minerals, would not fulfil this criterion. The Journal particularly welcomes contributions involving environmentally, economically and socially sustainable technology for water treatment, including those which are energy-efficient, with minimal or no chemical consumption, and capable of water recycling and reuse that minimizes the direct disposal of wastewater to the aquatic environment. Papers that describe novel ideas for solving issues related to water quality and availability are also welcome, as are those that show the transfer of techniques from other disciplines. The Journal will consider papers dealing with processes for various water matrices including drinking water (except desalination), domestic, urban and industrial wastewaters, in addition to their residues. It is expected that the journal will be of particular relevance to chemical and process engineers working in the field. The Journal welcomes Full Text papers, Short Communications, State-of-the-Art Reviews and Letters to Editors and Case Studies
