In this study, biochar derived from municipal sludge was activated by zinc chloride, which was first time used as the precursor for hydrothermal synthesis of magnetic sludge biochar (Fe/Zn-SBC) for tetracycline (TC) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) removal. The maximum adsorption capacity of Fe/Zn-SBC for TC and CIP were 145 mg g and 74.2 mg g at 25 °C, respectively. Kinetics, isotherms, thermodynamics and characterization analysis suggested that the adsorption process was dominated by pore filling, oxygen-containing groups complexation, π-π conjugation and hydrogen bonding. Fe/Zn-SBC had the high selective adsorption capacity for TC and CIP in a wide pH range and even at the high ionic strength. The magnetic sensitivity ensured its easy separation performance. The co-processing of ultrasound and ethanol could effectively regenerate the used Fe/Zn-SBC. Also, it exhibited great environmental safety in the pH range of 3 to 12. These superiority suggested that it is a promising adsorbent for antibiotics removal.
在这项研究中,利用氯化锌对城市污泥衍生的生物炭进行了活化,这是首次将其用作水热合成磁性污泥生物炭(Fe/Zn-SBC)的前体,以去除四环素(TC)和环丙沙星(CIP)。在 25°C 下,Fe/Zn-SBC 对 TC 和 CIP 的最大吸附容量分别为 145 mg/g 和 74.2 mg/g。动力学、等温线、热力学和特性分析表明,吸附过程主要受孔填充、含氧基团络合、π-π 共轭和氢键控制。Fe/Zn-SBC 在很宽的 pH 范围甚至在高离子强度下对 TC 和 CIP 具有高选择性吸附能力。磁敏性确保了其易于分离的性能。超声和乙醇的共同处理可以有效地再生用过的 Fe/Zn-SBC。此外,它在 pH 值为 3 到 12 的范围内表现出很好的环境安全性。这些优势表明,它是一种很有前途的抗生素去除吸附剂。
