چکیده

In this work, legume starch from Kwakil beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) was cross-linked with epichlorohydrin and carboxymethylated with different concentrations of sodium monochloroacetate (SMCA) (5-30% w/w of starch db). Degree of substitution (DS) of carboxymethyl group ranged between 0.02-0.063, and adsorption was enhanced as the DS increased. The native starch (NS), cross-linked starch (ECS), and the carboxymethyl derivative (ECCS-15%; DS=0.062) with optimum adsorption capacity in Pb2+ (98.51%) and Cd2+ (97.32%) aqueous solution were further characterized using FTIR and SEM-EDX. Equilibrium studies revealed that the adsorption of Pb2+ and Cd2+ from aqueous solution by ECCS increased by enhancing the pH, contact time (up to equilibrium time at 15 min), initial concentration and adsorbent dosage, but decreased with increasing the temperature and interfering ion (Na+ and Ca2+) concentrations. Pb2+ data fits pseudo-second order kinetic (R2=0.9999) and Langmuir isotherm models (R2=0.9983), and ΔH=-48.67 Kj/mol-1. This signals a chemisorption process. Pb2+ and Cd2+ can be recovered efficiently (up to 99%), and the adsorbent can be reused up to 5 cycles with sorption capacity above 75%. On application, ECCS reveals good potentials in the purification of wastewater with low heavy metal ion concentrations.

اطلاعات بیشتر در مورد COI

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
