Abstract |
|
|
Chlorinated cellulose was chemically modified with
ethylene-1,2-diamine followed by pentane-2,4-dione to
yield a synthesized biopolymer that was applied for divalent cation sorption
from aqueous solution. The metals gave sorption capacities at the solid/liquid
interface of 2.32 ± 0.06, 1.85 ± 0.02, 1.70 ± 0.04 and 1.65 ± 0.02 mmol g-1 for Cu2+, Co2+,
Ni2+ and Zn2+, respectively. The isotherms were adjusted
to the Langmuir, the Freundlich and the Temkin
sorption models. The quantitative cation/base center interactions were
calorimetrically determined to give exothermic enthalpies of – (5.48 ± 0.03), –
(2.89±0.01), – (1.67±0.02) and – (3.44±0.01) kJ mol-1, negative
Gibbs energies of – (16.3±0.7), – (18.8±0.7), – (17.5±0.7) and – (18.3±0.7) kJ
mol-1, and positive entropies of 36±2, 53±2, 53±2 and 49±2 J mol-1
K-1 for the same sequence of cations. These favorable thermodynamic
data suggest that the synthesis involving cellulose produces a new useful
material for cation removal from the environment.
