In this study, a green adsorbent made of corn leaf powder was applied in the removal Cu(II) and Cd(II) from water samples. The material characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, which indicated existence amine (1375 1249 cm-1) carboxylic groups (1730 cm-1). Elemental analysis corroborated results FTIR, indicating that substance consisted 0.63% sulfur 0.46% nitrogen. NMR thiamine methionine may be present substances, can act coordination with metal species. Scanning...
We have developed a clean route for the modification of polyvinylchloride surface (PVC) with 4-amino-5-hydrazino-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol molecule. The reaction was investigated through Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray Photoelectron (XPS) analysis. According to our findings, S-H groups are responsible molecule attachment nitrogen atoms directly involved in metal ion coordination. These results agreement pseudo-second-order kinetic model, which infers that chemisorption...
Cassava husks were undergone to simple processes obtain a fine powder whose particle diameter varied from 63 μm 75 μm. The characterization of the material indicated presence groups alcohol, amine and thiocarbonyl. was tested through batch experiments effect contact time pH over adsorption Cd(II) ions evaluated. presented rapid kinetic equilibrium, which reached in less than 1 min, highest uptake occurred at 5. optimum conditions obtained applied determine material’s maximum capacity with...
The synthesis of an organofunctionalized mesoporous silica was accomplished by a two-step process involving (1) the co-condensation silylant agent at surface silica, followed (2) immobilization Purpald (ligand) organic termination silytant agent. characterization material indicated presence NH2 groups, and ligand confirmed 29Si- 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance. material’s area determined as 370 m2 g−1. Batch adsorption experiments enabled determination optimum pH conditions for Cu(II) Cd(II)....
The identification and quantification of different contaminants in natural waters have been widely disseminated scientific journals. In the last two decades, removal from aqueous samples drugs their metabolites, also called emerging contaminants, highlighted. problem existence environment, besides its persistence, is related to occurrence more resistant bacteria, being a serious risk health. Thus, objectives this project were characterization cattail leaves, Typha angustifolia L. natura,...
Using straightforward and cost-effective methods, persimmon leaves were converted into a high-quality powder. This powder was applied as an adsorbent for the removal of Cu(II) Cd(II) from aqueous solutions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicated presence particles with non-homogeneous sizes rough texture. Elemental analysis EDX technique confirmed elements such sulfur, phosphorus, nitrogen, oxygen. The results 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (13C-NMR), obtained through...
