Mexican natural clinoptilolite treated with silver for DDD removal from water

The capability of a natural clinoptilolite to remove DDD in function of the temperature and variation of silver concentration was studied. The MEB-EDX and BET tech­niques analyzed the natural and modified samples. By kinetic tests, it was found that equilibrium occurred at 180 minutes of contact and...

Sumario:The capability of a natural clinoptilolite to remove DDD in function of the temperature and variation of silver concentration was studied. The MEB-EDX and BET tech­niques analyzed the natural and modified samples. By kinetic tests, it was found that equilibrium occurred at 180 minutes of contact and that silver increases the removal efficiency. The process displayed a chemisorption kinetic, since it was adjusted to the pseudo second-order model and the coef­ficients of determination varied in a range from 0.9933 to 0.9997. By the adsorption isotherms, the maximum adsorbed concentration was obtained at 0.19 mg/g. The data fit per­fectly to the Langmuir model, in which a decrease was ob­served in constant b, related to the adsorption energy, when there was an increase in temperature. The latter indicates a decrease in adsorption at high temperatures, with the order of adsorption being 25° C> 35° C> 45° C. It is concluded that the process is exothermic, since the adsorption was greater when the temperature lowered, corroborated by the calcula­tion of the thermodynamic parameters (ΔH °, ΔG ° and ΔS °).
