Abstract
Waste water contaminated with inorganic mercury is considered a serious environmental problem, mainly due to the hazardous effects this contaminant causes on human health. Thus, the present work aims to evaluate the potentiality of the bimetallic nanoadsorbent ((TiO2@MnO2)-NPs) obtained from the biosynthesis in the mercury ions (Hg2+) removal by adsorption. (TiO2@MnO2)-NPs was synthesized from Aloe vera and Matricaria recutita extracts. The nanoadsorbent was characterized by XRD, ZP, and pHZCP. The results confirmed the production of a nanoadsorbent with an average particle diameter around 25?nm. (TiO2@MnO2)-NPs showed negative surface charge (??11.32?mV), and pHZCP?≈?7.65. Regarding Hg2+ adsorption, the removal was 86.15%. Adsorption data were fitted by Khan (R2 0.96, qe?=?28.07?mg?g?1) and intraparticle diffusion (R2 0.97, qt?=?28.84?mg?g?1) models. Thermodynamics suggested the adsorption is exothermic process (ΔH?=???73.93?kJ?mol?1), with decrease of the randomness (ΔS?=?0.24?kJ?mol?1?K?1) in the solid–liquid interface, being favorable under temperature below 298.15?K (ΔG?=???1.16?kJ?mol?1). (TiO2@MnO2)-NPs resulted in more than 80% Hg2+ removal after six cycles of adsorption. Therefore, nanoparticles containing titanium and manganese can be effectively used for the adsorption of Hg2+ ions, collaborating with the environment.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Material Cycles and Waste Management has a twofold focus: research in technical, political, and environmental problems of material cycles and waste management; and information that contributes to the development of an interdisciplinary science of material cycles and waste management. Its aim is to develop solutions and prescriptions for material cycles.
The journal publishes original articles, reviews, and invited papers from a wide range of disciplines related to material cycles and waste management.
The journal is published in cooperation with the Japan Society of Material Cycles and Waste Management (JSMCWM) and the Korea Society of Waste Management (KSWM).
