摘要:
采用批量平衡实验,对比研究了多壁碳纳米管(MWNTs)及多壁碳纳米管/二氧化钛复合材料(MWNTs/TiO2)对水中1,2,3-三氯苯的吸附特性。结果表明,在相同条件下,MWNTs及MWNTs/TiO2对1,2,3-三氯苯(1,2,3-TCB)的最大吸附量分别为71.8 mg/g和3.05 mg/g,pH值在2~11之间变化时,两者的吸附均不受pH值变化的影响。2种吸附剂的吸附过程均符合拟二级动力学方程,但MWNTs/TiO2对1,2,3-TCB的吸附速率常数为0.4159 g/(mg·min),约为MWNTs的50倍左右,说明MWNTs/TiO2具有更强的吸附驱动力。1,2,3-TCB在2种吸附剂上的吸附过程均可用Freundlich吸附等温线来描述,其热力学参数吉布斯自由能△G0均为负、标准焓变△H0与熵变△S0均为正表明,MWNTs及MWNTs/TiO2吸附1,2,3-TCB过程为自发吸热反应。与MWNTs相比,MWNTs/TiO2具有可光催化再生的优点,能用于被污染水体的原位修复。
Abstract:
Adsorptive characteristics of 1,2,3-TCB in aqueous solutions on both MWNTs and MWNTs/TiO2 were comparatively studied through batch equilibrium tests. The results showed that, under the same tested condition, the maximum adsorption capacity of MWNTs and MWNTs/TiO2 were 71.8 mg/g and 3.05 mg/g,respectively, and none of the adsorption was depended on pH value variation from 2~11. The adsorption of the two tested adsorbents conformed to be pseudo-second-order kinetics, however, the adsorption rate constant of MWNTs/TiO2 towards 1,2,3-TCB was 0.4159 g/(mg·min), which was around 50 times that of the MWNTs. This results indicated that MWNTs/TiO2 had a stronger adsorptive driving force on 1,2,3-TCB. The Freundlich adsorption isotherm well described both the adsorption process of the two adsorbents towards 1,2,3-TCB. According to the results, the thermodynamic parameters were determined, and it was found that gibbs free energy (△G0) was always negative while standard enthalpy change(△H0) and standard entropy change(△S0) were always positive, which suggested that the adsorption processes of 1,2,3-TCB on both MWNTs and MWNTs/TiO2 were spontaneous and endothermic. Further compared with MWNTs, it was found that MWNTs/TiO2 could be well regenerated by photocatalysis, implying it might be applied to in-situ remediation of the contaminated water.
