Effective adsorption of As(V) and V(V) ions from water samples using 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine functionalized sodium dodecyl sulfate-coated magnetite nanoparticles
In this study, 2,4-DNPH coated magnetite was used for removal of As(V) and V(V) ions from aqueous solution. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by XRD analysis, FT-IR, SEM, and SEM-EDXS measurement. The size of the nanoparticles according to SEM was obtained as around 20-35 nm. Equilibrium isotherm data showed that the Langmuir-Freundlich model was in a good agreement with the experimental data according to high correlation coefficient. The maximum adsorption capacities of As(V) and V(V) on adsorbent were 338.4 and 266.8 mg g(-1), respectively. Kinetic study showed that the fractal like-PSO model was appropriate to describe the adsorption process. The optimum pH was obtained to be 7 and 5 for As(V) and V(V) ions, respectively.
