Adsorption of 1,2-dichlorobenzene from water to carbon nanotubes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The as-grown CNTs and graphitized CNTs were used as adsorbents to remove 1,2-dichlorobenzene from water. The experiments demonstrate that it takes only 40 min for CNTs to attain equilibrium and the adsorption capacity of asgrown and graphitized CNTs is 30.8 and 28.7 mg/g, respectively, from a 20 mg/l solution. CNTs can be used as adsorbents in a wide pH range of 3–10. Thermodynamic calculations indicate that the adsorption reaction is spontaneous with a high affinity and the adsorption is an endothermic reaction. 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
