Adsorption of hexavalent chromium by polyacrylonitrile-based porous carbon from aqueous solution

Owing to the unique microporous structure and high specific surface area, porous carbon could act as a good carrier for functional materials. In this paper, polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based porous carbon materials (PPC-0.6-600, PPC-0.8-600, PPC-0.6-800 and PPC-0.8-800) were prepared by heating KOH at 600°C and 800oC for the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The adsorbent was characterized b...

Fluoride removal from aqueous solution by functionalized-polyacrylonitrile coated with iron oxide nano particles: characterization and sorption studies

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-oxime-nano Fe2O3 was used as an adsorbent for the removal of fluoride from water. The influences of contact time, initial fluoride concentration, and adsorbent dosage were investigated by batch equilibrium studies. The rate of adsorption was rapid with equilibrium being attained after 100min. The Langmuir isotherm model was found to represent the measured adsorption data...

Synthesis of Polyacrylonitrile Based Nanoparticles via Aqueous Dispersion Polymerization

The monodisperse and controlled polymer nanoparticles have attracted much attention in academic and industrial fields. Due to small size and extremely large specific surface area, nanoparticles could be used to the fields of drug delivery system, microencapsulation, chromate graphy, catalyst, organic/inorganic hybrid materials, and templates for porous inorganic materials. The dispersion polyme...

Adsorption of Lead from Aqueous Solution by Modified Beech Sawdust

Sawdust is now being investigated as an adsorbent to remove contaminants from aqueous solution. Heavy metals can be decreased very effectively with the organic material. In this research, adsorption of Pb (II) onto modified beech sawdust in a batch system was investigated. Sawdust was collected from timber mill of Qom, Iran, and modified with H2SO4 and NaOH. Then, the effe...
