Removal of Tetracycline from Water
Using Activated Carbon Derived from the Mixture of Phragmites australis and Waterworks Sludge
Posted on 2020-06-23 - 11:40
Sludge-based activated
carbon with doped Phragmites australis was prepared using an environment-friendly
method to treat waterworks sludge (WS) and obtain an economical adsorbing
material for tetracycline (TC) elimination. For the WS, P. australis was used as an additive to optimize
the preparation of activated carbon. Optimum preparation conditions
were as follows: activation temperature, 600 °C; ZnCl2 concentration, 3 mol/L; activation time, 50 min; impregnation ratio
(weight of mix sample: weight of ZnCl2) of 1:2.5; and the
mixed ratio of P. australis with WS,
40%. The obtained activated carbon owned well-developed Brunauer–Emmett–Teller
surface area (949.90 m2/g). The acidic and basic functional
groups were improved to 0.762 and 0.016 mmol/g, respectively. The
pseudo-second-order kinetic and Freundlich isotherm equations were
more suitable models to simulate adsorption with the maximum adsorption
capacity of 153.4 mg/g. According to the thermodynamic parameters,
the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. Electrostatic
interaction, hydrogen bonding formation, and ion complexation adsorption
mechanisms were the mechanisms underlying the adsorption of TC.
