Iron-modified composite adsorbent coating for acid red 1 removal and its regeneration feasibility by heterogeneous fenton-like process

Iron-modified composite adsorbent coating for acid red 1 removal and its regeneration feasibility by heterogeneous fenton-like process / Chew Jian Yee
Penjerapan merupakan teknik yang biasa digunakan dalam rawatan air sisa kerana proses ini adalah murah, mudah dan cekap dalam pengoperasian. Namun, pemulihan penjerap yang terpakai biasanya disekat oleh interaksi yang kuat antara permukaan penjerap dan bahan jerap. Sekiranya, pemulihan dan penggunaan semula penjerap dapat dijalankan bagi beberapa kitaran, penjimatan dari segi ekonomik dapat dicapai. Justeru itu, penyelidikan terkini telah memberi tumpuan kepada kebolehlaksanaan pemulihan lapisan penjerap komposit (CAC) yang dipenuhi oleh (Asid Merah 1) AR1 dengan menggunakan proses ala-Fenton heterogen. Bentonit telah diubahsuaikan dengan ferum untuk menggantikan bentonite bengkak yang digunakan dalam formulasi asal CAC. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa penjerapan AR1 dengan kepekatan awal 50 ppm adalah sangat efesien dan keseimbangan dapat dicapai dalam masa dua jam bagi kedua-dua formulasi, iaitu APE-bent-EPIDMA/CF dan APE-Febent-EPIDMA/CF. Kadar penyingkiran AR1 bagi bentonit yang telah diubahsuaikan dengan ferum adalah lebih tinggi berbanding dengan kadar penyingkiaran AR 1 oleh bentonit bengkak. Kemampuan process Fenton heterogen untuk memulihkan APE-Febent-EPIDMA/CF yang dipenuhi oleh AR1 telah dinilaikan dalam dua keadaan iaitu dengan bantuan sinaran UV dan tanpa sinaran UV (dalam keadaan gelap). Kesan pengaruhan asid dan alkali terhadap desorpsi AR1 juga dikaji dengan menggunakan asid hidrocholik dan natrium hidrosida dengan kemolaran 0.1 M. Kemolaran awal hidrogen peroksida yang digunakan ialah 8.82 mM,. Selepas proses pemulihan dengan bantuan sinaran UV selama 3 jam, APE-Febent-EPIDMA/CF masih boleh mencapai peratus penyingkiran AR1 yang tinggi (>80%), bagi lima kitaran penjerapan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan natrium hidroksida merupakan ajen elusi yang sesuai untuk proses desorpsi AR1 (pewarna anionik) daripada APE-Febent-EPIDMA/CF. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Adsorption is widely used technique in wastewater treatment because the process is low cost, ease of operation and efficient. However, regeneration of spent adsorbents is usually restricted by the strong interactions between the surface of adsorbents and adsorbates. It would be very economical if the spent adsorbents can be regenerated and reused for many cycles. Hence, this current research had been focussed on the feasibility of heterogeneous Fenton process to regenerate Acid Red 1 (AR1) loaded composite adsorbent coating (CAC). The iron-modified bentonite was synthesised to replace swelled bentonite in the original formulation of CAC (APE-bent-EPIDMA/CF). The results showed that the adsorption of AR1 with initial concentration of 50 ppm was very efficient and equilibrium was achieved within two hour for both formulations. After modified with iron, the removal rate of AR1 in aqueous solution was higher than that of swelled bentonite. Ability of heterogeneous Fenton process to regenerate the spent APE-Febent-EPIDMA/CF was evaluated under the assistance of UV and without UV (in dark condition). The effect of acid and base on the desorption of AR1 was also studied using 0.1 M of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and 0.1 M sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The initial concentration of hydrogen peroxide used was 8.82 mM. After regeneration process for 3 hours under the UV assistance with addition of 0.1 M NaOH, the APE-Febent-EPIDMA/CF was still able to retain high percentage removal of AR1 (>80%) up to five cycles of adsorption. The findings revealed that sodium hydroxide is a good elution agent to desorb AR1 (anionic dye) from the APE-Febent-EPIDMA/CF coating.
