Investigation of The Uses of Some Bioadsorbans in Cr(VI) Removal from Water Solution

Abstract

Heavy metals are one of the biggest threats to aquatic ecosystems from an environmental perspective. Aquatic ecosystems containing heavy metals because of reaching these industries after being used in various industries cause environmental pollution. In this study, the use of peach kernel (PK) as a bioadsorbent and its usability in the adsorption of Cr (VI) from an aqueous solution was investigated. Thus, it was desired to increase the economic value of these materials, which have low economic value, by investigating the possibilities of using them as bioadsorbent. On the other hand, it is aimed to contribute to the protection of both the aquatic environment and human health, and therefore to the prevention of environmental pollution, by removing heavy metals, which are polluting threats in aquatic ecosystems, with these materials. In the study, synthetically prepared wastewater containing Cr (VI) was used. These materials used as adsorbent were ground after drying in an oven at 105 °C for 24 hours and materials with 35 mesh sieve size were used in the experiments. Atomic Adsorption Spectrophotometer (AAS), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller Isotherm Model (BET) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) were used to determine the Cr (VI) concentration and characterization of the adsorbent. The low rate of removal efficiency obtained in the preliminary experiments conducted as raw led to the application of activation processes to the peach kernel. From the adsorption processes performed after the activation processes, the PK yield was 93%. It was concluded that the FT-IR results in the adsorbent can be evaluated as chemical adsorption. BET results showed that the surface area of the material decreased after the adsorption process, while SEM results were evaluated that the adsorbent surface was heterogeneous. In the study, maximum efficiency was reached under optimum conditions at pH 2, 0.5 g adsorbent amount, and 5 hours retention time. It has been observed that a removal capacity of 0.738 mg.g-1 per unit adsorbent was obtained with 0.5 g PK under optimum conditions. It was found to be suitable for the Langmuir isotherm model, which is one of the adsorption isotherm models. In the kinetic evaluation of the reaction, it was suitable for pseudo-second-order rate kinetics. All results revealed the usability of PK in Cr (VI) removal, especially because of the activation process.
