Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is widely used gasoline oxygenate which has been recognized as a hazardous material with high risk of carcinogenesis by EPA ad RCRA. MTBE can contaminate groundwater and soil through leaking from oil products tanks in fuel farms or gas stations. Porous soils can be used to adsorb contaminants such as MTBE. The main objective of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness...
A new polymer, oxidative Poly-Si-Fe (PSF) coagulant was prepared by an oxidization and copolymerization method. The influence of the oxidization of PSF on the adsorption of humid acid (HA) was explored, in comparison with that of polyferric aluminum (PFA). The results show that PSF changes the molecular structure of HA, leading to the improvement of adsorption of HA.
Compared with the effect of total phosphorus removal by modified peat and ammonium nitrogen removal by modified zeolite respectively, ammonium nitrogen and total phosphorus removal by modified peat associated with modified zeolite from micro-polluted scenic-water were studied in this paper. The surface structures of natural material, modified material and the modified material after adsorption saturated...
A adsorbent for cadmium had been prepared by loading an anion-exchange resin with a novel supramolecular compound named thiacalix[4]arenetetrasulfonate (TCAS). The adsorption properties of Cd2+ on TCAS-adsorbed resin had been studied and the effects of varying temperature, pH value, adsorption time and initial conentration. Batchwise extraction studies had revealed a high adsorption ability of the...
The purpose of this study was to choose a fine chemical to efficiently remove ammonia nitrogen from the ammonia water in AS Process, which provides a new available approach to treat coking wastewater. The experiment adopted "Air Stripping and Adsorption" to remove ammonia nitrogen from the ammonia water, and studied the reaction temperature T, pH, the time of stripping t, the dosage of the...
With the rapid development of industry and agriculture, there are thousands of tons phosphate and nitrogen releasing into surface water. Phosphate becomes the main reason for eutrophication, resulting in deterioration of water quality. Ferric sludge from drinking waterworks was found to possess potential efficiency to remove phosphate ions from aqueous solutions. The maximum phosphate ions adsorption...
Removal of as(V) and as(III) from water using hydrous cerie oxide, CeO2ldrxH2O (HCO) was investigated under different pH and As loading conditions, using batch equilibrium adsorption and FTIR methods. Adsorption of both As(V) and As(III) anions was virtually independent of pH and up to 100% removal can be achieved in the lower concentration range 0.5 - 5.0 mg L-1 As at sorbent dosage of 1.0 g L-1...
The properties of plant root exudates and their effects on the water solubility of PCP were investigated in this paper. The results showed that the hydrophobic and the high-molecular-weight fractions of sunflower(Helianthusannuus) root exudates were more than those of lucerne(Medicagosativa) root exudates. With time elapsed, the biodegradation rate of lucerne root exudates was higher than sunflower...
