Abstract
Pure TiO2 and copper-modified titania (Cu/TiO2) nanoparticles were synthesized through sol gel combined with the pyrolysis method for the removal of Congo red (CR) in wastewater treatment. Surface morphology and structural evaluation utilized XRD, TEM, Raman, FTIR and BET techniques. Cu/TiO2 showed rich defects and a higher specific surface area than that of TiO2. The 1Cu/TiO2 (molar ratio Cu/TiO2 of 1/100) showed the best performance to adsorption of CR solution at different reaction conditions (contact duration, CR concentration, adsorbent dose, temperature, and initial pH). Adsorption kinetics and equilibrium isotherms were well-described with a pseudo-second-order kinetics and Freundlich model, respectively. The negative ΔG indicates stable adsorption of CR on the Cu/TiO2 surface. The adsorption efficiency only decreases by 6% after 5 cycles of adsorption regeneration. The successful synthesis of Cu/TiO2 offers a new possibility to address the problems related to CR dye from aqueous solutions.
采用溶胶-凝胶结合热解法合成了纯TiO2和铜修饰二氧化钛(Cu/TiO2)纳米颗粒,用于废水处理中的刚果红(CR)脱除。利用XRD, TEM, Raman, FTIR和BET技术对其表面形貌和结构进行了评价。Cu/TiO2具有丰富的缺陷,比表面积高于TiO2。不同反应条件(接触时间、CR浓度、吸附剂剂量、温度和初始pH)下,1Cu/TiO2 (Cu/TiO2摩尔比为1/100)对CR溶液的吸附性能最好。吸附动力学和平衡等温线分别用拟二级动力学和Freundlich模型描述得很好。负ΔG表示CR在Cu/TiO2表面吸附稳定。经过5次循环吸附再生后,吸附效率仅下降6%。Cu/TiO2的成功合成为解决水溶液中CR染料的相关问题提供了新的可能性。
