Abstract:
Virgin cotton stalk was produced into an effective biosorbent for perchlorate adsorption. Surface analysis including BET surface area and SEM illustrated the reduction of porous structure in amine-crosslinked cotton stalk (AC-CS). Elemental and zeta potential analysis validated the graft of some positively charged amine groups on surface of AC-CS. Spectra analysis (XPS, FTIR and Raman spectra) suggested that interaction between AC-CS and ClO4(-) should be based on electrostatic attraction. The maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of AC-CS for perchlorate at different pHs (3.0, 6.0, 9.0 and 11.0) were calculated as 29.6, 42.6, 41.0 and 33.0 mg/g, respectively. The saturated perchlorate uptakes in column were in range of 25.0-38.1 mg/g at different pHs. In addition, the exhausted AC-CS column was regenerated by 0.5 mol/L of NaCl solution, which was adequate for almost complete desorption of the perchlorate.
