Preparation and dye removal performance of MnFe₂O₄@diatomite composite by Song Junying, Huang Zhanbin

“…Massive discharge of dyes by industries into environment has posed a threat to aquatic organisms and human health.In order to reduce dye pollution, a MnFe₂O₄@diatomite composite adsorbent(MnFe₂O₄@DE) with excellent removal effect of malachite green(MG) in wastewater and simple preparation method was prepared in this study.A variety of characterization methods were used to analyze structural properties of the composite and its adsorption effect on MG was also systematically studied.The results showed that the MnFe₂O₄nanoparticles were well distributed on the surface of diatomite.Compared to two monomer materials, the specific surface area(112.1 m²/g) and pore volume(0.24 cm³/g) of the composite increased significantly.The as-synthesized composite exhibited enhanced adsorption behavior to MG, and its maximum adsorption capacity could reach 25.70 mg/g, which was up to around 1.89 and 1.13 times as much as that of diatomite(DE) and MnFe₂O₄ respectively.The adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic, which was consistent with pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir model.And MnFe₂O₄@DE also showed good reusability.After 4 times of reuse, composite still had 87.56% removal effect on MG.Therefore, MnFe₂O₄@DE has good application potential in dye pollution control.…”

Co-Utilization of Sewage Sludge and Rice Husk in Ceramsite Preparation with Selective Adsorption Capacity to Pb by Rui Wang, Meng Lu, Junxing Wang

“…Thermodynamic parameters (ΔH⁰ > 0, ΔG⁰ < 0, ΔS⁰ > 0) indicated that the adsorption reaction was spontaneous and endothermic. The possible adsorption mechanisms are as follows: (1) SRC is rich in layered mesoporous structure, which provides sufficient reaction sites for Pb adsorption; (2) the sintered lawsonite and muscovite can strongly attract Pb and then form a new phase (Pb₁₀[Si₂O₇]₃(OH)₂); (3) Pb²⁺ can bond with the Si–O- bond in aluminosilicates, and the introduction of Pb elevates the degree of polymerization of aluminosilicates in turn, indicating that the adsorption process is stable.…”
