Abstract
The molecular detail and the ability of arsenate adsorption by MIL-88B-tpt were investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. The mean square displacement, root mean square deviation, radial distribution function, binding energy, kinetic model, and adsorption isotherm model were investigated. The best number of arsenate ions that can be removed by 8.08 mol of MIL-88B-tpt in the simulation box is 6 arsenate ions. The calculated binding energy of the different amounts of arsenate ions to MIL-88B-tpt has also justified the strong interaction of the system, including 6 mol of arsenate ions with MIL-88B-tpt. The arsenate ions are absorbed through the formation of As-O…Fe bridges and through hydrogen bonds with another arsenate, and is directly adsorbed.
The simulation results indeed confirmed that the arsenate adsorption on MIL-88B-tpt can be well-described by both the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model, which suggests that the adsorption of arsenate on MIL-88B-tpt was simultaneously influenced by the adsorbate and adsorbent concentrations, and the calculated maximum absorption is 151.51 mg/g.
The effect of the presence of lead (II) nitrate and sodium phosphate on arsenate adsorption was also investigated. The presence of lead and phosphate ions has increased the MSD values of arsenate ions by increasing the free arsenate ions and the occupation of the adsorption sites. It is deduced from the simulation results that the negative effect of phosphate ions on arsenate absorption is a little more than that of lead ions.
期刊介绍:
The journal includes papers in the following areas:
– Simple organic liquids and mixtures
– Ionic liquids
– Surfactant solutions (including micelles and vesicles) and liquid interfaces
– Colloidal solutions and nanoparticles
– Thermotropic and lyotropic liquid crystals
– Ferrofluids
– Water, aqueous solutions and other hydrogen-bonded liquids
– Lubricants, polymer solutions and melts
– Molten metals and salts
– Phase transitions and critical phenomena in liquids and confined fluids
– Self assembly in complex liquids.– Biomolecules in solution
The emphasis is on the molecular (or microscopic) understanding of particular liquids or liquid systems, especially concerning structure, dynamics and intermolecular forces. The experimental techniques used may include:
– Conventional spectroscopy (mid-IR and far-IR, Raman, NMR, etc.)
– Non-linear optics and time resolved spectroscopy (psec, fsec, asec, ISRS, etc.)
– Light scattering (Rayleigh, Brillouin, PCS, etc.)
– Dielectric relaxation
– X-ray and neutron scattering and diffraction.
Experimental studies, computer simulations (MD or MC) and analytical theory will be considered for publication; papers just reporting experimental results that do not contribute to the understanding of the fundamentals of molecular and ionic liquids will not be accepted. Only papers of a non-routine nature and advancing the field will be considered for publication.
