Removal mechanism of arsenate by bimetallic and trimetallic hydrocalumites depending on arsenate concentration
Abstract We investigated the influence of initial arsenate concentration (C 0) in the 5th order of magnitude on removal of arsenate by hydrocalumite (bimetallic layered double hydroxide, LDH) and Mg-doped hydrocalumite (trimetallic LDH) from aqueous solution. These hydrocalumites were prepared by the microwave-assisted hydrothermal treatment. There is a trend that the larger adsorption density of arsenate (Q e) values is observed with bimetallic LDH under low C 0 values and with trimetallic LDH under high C 0 values. The transitional C 0 values ranged at 2.10–2.96mM. Comprehensively understanding characterization results for the solid residues after adsorption of arsenate by X-ray diffraction, 27Al-nuclear magnetic resonance, and scanning electron microscopy–energy dispersive X-ray, the mechanism to remove arsenate was dependent on arsenate concentrations. At low arsenate concentration, partial intercalation and dissolution–reprecipitation (DR) happened together. With increasing C 0, full intercalation and DR happened to bring out one phase of arsenate-bearing hydrocalumite. Under the very high C 0, DR mechanism happened at the edge sites of LDH sheets, leading that the newly formed massive precipitates block the further intercalation with nitrate. As a result, two phases of LDH were observed. The greater Q e with bimetallic LDH in low concentration comes from high crystallinity to enhance partial ion-exchange, and greater Q e with trimetallic LDH in high concentration is derived from more fragile properties to enhance DR mechanism.

Highlights The reactivity of synthesized trimetallic LDH was compared with bimetallic LDH. Sorption mechanisms of arsenate were dependent on the initial As concentration. At low As concentrations, the intercalation and DR mechanism were predominant. At high As concentrations, the intercalation was inhibited. The fragile property of trimetallic LDH caused high As sorption density.
