Efficiency of Fe–montmorillonite on the removal of Rhodamine B and hexavalent chromium from aqueous solution
Abstract Fe–montmorillonite (Fe–Mt) was prepared and tested for its potential application in the simultaneous removal of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) and rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous solution. The adsorption kinetics and capacities of Fe–Mt toward Cr(VI) and RhB were determined in relation to the initial contaminant concentration, pH of the solution and concentration of coexist contaminant. The adsorption kinetics of Cr(VI) or/and RhB in both single and simultaneous systems were investigated, which showed that an equilibrium time of a few hours was needed for the adsorption of Cr(VI) and RhB on Fe–Mt. The pseudo-second order model offers a better fit than pseudo-first order model for the Cr(VI) and RhB adsorption. Compared with the single adsorption systems, adsorption rates and quantities of Cr(VI) and RhB adsorbed on Fe–Mt were slightly enhanced in the simultaneous adsorption system. The most effective pH range for the removal of Cr(VI) and RhB was found to be 3.0–4.0. Cr(VI) adsorption isotherms were best represented by the two-site Langmuir model while RhB isotherms followed the Freundlich model. For both contaminants, the adsorption of one contaminant increases with increase in the initial concentration of the other one. Therefore, Fe–Mt could simultaneously remove Cr(VI) and RhB from water. The properties of Fe–Mt were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). The findings of this study provide novel information for the development of clay-based adsorbents toward dyes and heavy metals.
Highlights Fe–Mt can simultaneously remove both Cr and RhB from water. The adsorption of Cr and RhB on Fe–Mt was slightly enhanced in simultaneous system. The adsorption capacity of Fe–Mt toward Cr and RhB was affected by pH of solution.
