Removal of Cu(II) from Aqueous Solutions using Dried Activated Sludge and Dried Activated Nano-Sludge: Adsorption on a Fixed-Bed Column
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the present time study,dried activated sludge(DAS) and dried activated nano sludge(DANS) was used for the removal of Cu(II) from aqueous solution in a fixed-bed reactor. The effect of important parameters including the flow rate and bed height were examined. Dried activated nano sludge column regeneration using 1 M concentration of HNO3 has been studied.The Thomas model was used for the mathematical description of the adsorption of Copper at different flow rate and various bed height to determine parameters of the column suitable for process design. Both exhaustion time and breakthrough time increased with increasing bed height, while the adsorption bed capacity decreased as the flow rate increased.
