In the present work, the porous MgO nanosheet-modified activated carbon fiber felt (MgO@ACFF) was prepared for fluoride removal. The MgO@ACFF was characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM, EDS, TG, and BET. The fluoride adsorption performance of MgO@ACFF also has been investigated. The adsorption rate of the MgO@ACFF toward fluoride is fast; more than 90% of the fluoride ions can be adsorbed within 100 min, and the adsorption kinetics of MgO@ACFF can be fitted in a pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption isotherm of MgO@ACFF fitted well in the Freundlich model. Additionally, the fluoride adsorption capacity of MgO@ACFF is larger than 212.2 mg/g at neutral. In a wide pH range of 2-10, the MgO@ACFF can efficiently remove fluoride from water, which is meaningful for practical usage. The effect of co-existing anions on the fluoride removal efficiency of the MgO@ACFF also has been studied. Furthermore, the fluoride adsorption mechanism of the MgO@ACFF was studied by the FTIR and XPS, and the results reveal a hydroxyl and carbonate co-exchange mechanism. The column test of the MgO@ACFF also has been investigated; 505-bed volumes of 5 mg/L fluoride solution can be treated with effluent under 1.0 mg/L. It is believed that the MgO@ACFF is a potential candidate for a fluoride adsorbent.
在本工作中,制备了多孔氧化镁纳米片改性的活性炭纤维毡(MgO@ACFF)用于去除氟化物。通过XRD、SEM、TEM、EDS、TG和BET对MgO@ACFF进行了表征。还研究了MgO@ACFF对氟化物的吸附性能。MgO@ACFF对氟化物的吸附速率很快;在100分钟内可吸附超过90%的氟离子,且MgO@ACFF的吸附动力学可以用准二级模型拟合。MgO@ACFF的吸附等温线与Freundlich模型拟合良好。此外,MgO@ACFF在中性条件下对氟化物的吸附容量大于212.2 mg/g。在2 - 10的宽pH范围内,MgO@ACFF可以有效地从水中去除氟化物,这对于实际应用具有重要意义。还研究了共存阴离子对MgO@ACFF除氟效率的影响。此外,通过FTIR和XPS研究了MgO@ACFF的氟化物吸附机理,结果揭示了羟基和碳酸根共交换机理。还对MgO@ACFF进行了柱试验;505床体积的5 mg/L氟化物溶液经处理后出水氟化物浓度低于1.0 mg/L。认为MgO@ACFF是一种有潜力的氟化物吸附剂。
