通过吸附实验考察了羟基磷灰石对水中刚果红的吸附作用,结果表明羟基磷灰石对水中的刚果红具备良好的吸附效果.准二级动力学模型适合描述羟基磷灰石对水中刚果红的吸附动力学过程.Langmuir、Freundlich和Dubinin-Radushkevich(D-R)等温吸附模型可以用于描述羟基磷灰石对水中刚果红的吸附平衡数据.羟基磷灰石对水中刚果红的吸附是自发和放热的过程.当pH超过8时,羟基磷灰石对水中刚果红的吸附能力随pH的增加而明显降低.吸附了刚果红的羟基磷灰石经过热再生后可以循环使用,并且热再生后的羟基磷灰石对水中刚果红的吸附性能良好.当pH低于羟基磷灰石的零电荷点时,磷灰石吸附水中刚果红的机制是静电吸引、氢键和路易斯酸碱反应;当pH高于羟基磷灰石的零电荷点时,羟基磷灰石吸附水中刚果红的机制是氢键和路易斯酸碱反应.上述结果表明,羟基磷灰石适合作为一种吸附剂去除废水中的刚果红.
The adsorption of Congo red(CR) from aqueous solution on hydroxyapatite was investigated using batch experiments.The hydroxyapatite was effective for CR removal from aqueous solution.The adsorption kinetics of CR on hydroxyapatite well followed a pseudo-second-order model.The equilibrium adsorption data of CR on hydroxyapatite could be described by the Langmuir,Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich(D-R) isotherm models.Thermodynamic parameters such as Gibbs free energy change,enthalpy change and entropy change were calculated and showed that the adsorption of CR on hydroxyapatite was spontaneous and exothermic in nature.The CR adsorption capacity for hydroxyapatite decreased significantly with increasing pH from 8 to 10.Thermal regeneration showed that hydroxyapatite could be used for six desorption-adsorption cycles with high removal efficiency for CR in each cycle.The mechanisms for CR adsorption on hydroxyapatite with pH value below the pH at point of zero charge(pHPZC) include electrostatic attraction,hydrogen bonding and Lewis acid-base interaction.The mechanisms for CR adsorption on hydroxyapatite with pH value above its pHPZC include hydrogen bonding and Lewis acid-base interaction.Results of this work indicate that hydroxyapatite is a promising adsorbent for CR removal from aqueous solution.
