  • Title: [Elimination of As(V) by bead cellulose adsorbent loaded with Fe (beta-FeOOH) from groundwater].
    Author: Guo XJ, Chen FH.
    Journal: Huan Jing Ke Xue; 2005 May; 26(3):66-72. PubMed ID: 16124472.
    Abstract:
    A new adsorbent, bead cellulose impregnated with Fe oxide hydroxide (beta-FeOOH) was prepared, which is porous and has excellent mechanical properties. The content of iron, the reactive center of the adsorbent was 360 mg/mL at the most (50% in mass). Batch sorption experiments show that the adsorbent had 15.6 mg/mL (33.2 mg/g) of As(V) maximum sorption while the iron content was 220 mg/mL. The adsorbent had good kinetic property for arsenate and the adsorption equilibrium reached in 10 h. The sorption kinetic data can be described by Lagergren pseudo-second order rate equation. The addition of chloride, sulfate and silicate did not affecte the arsenic adsorption. The column experiment indicated that the breakthrough bed volume was 5000 BV while influent As(V) concentration was 500 microg/L and empty contact time was 5.9 min. The spent adsorbent can be regenerated eluting with 1.5 mol x L(-1) NaOH solutions, and the desorption and regeneration process were more than 90%. The FeOOH was chemically stable during the column adsorption and regeneration. The preparation method is simple and innovative. The adsorbent has good future applying for the arsenic removal from groundwater and drinking water.
