Abstract
This paper reports on the hydrothermal synthesis of environmentally–friendly hydroxyapatite (eco–HAp) using a cationic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, as a template agent with 1,3,5–trimethylbenzene as a pore expansion agent. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the resulting product consists of rod–like structures.
In batch measurements, an adsorbent dose of 15 g/L was sufficient to eradicate roughly 99 % of the Cd2+ in solution within 60 min, resulting in a maximum calculated adsorption capacity of 13.44 mg/g. Kinetics analysis revealed that the rate of adsorption was governed by pseudo–second–order kinetics (i.e., chemical adsorption), reaching equilibrium within 60 min. Thermodynamic analysis revealed that Cd2+ adsorption on the eco–HAp was a spontaneous, energetically–favorable, exothermic reaction. Overall, this study demonstrated the effectiveness of the prepared eco–HAp for the elimination of Cd2+ from aqueous solutions.
