Papers by Keyword: Urea-Modified Titanium Ore (UTO)

Abstract: The four main effect production factors, doping rate, calcination temperature, soaking time and heating rate, are chose to design experiments based on the orthogonal table L₉(₃⁴) to prepare urea-modified titanium ore (UTO) sorbents. And the decoloration efficiency of methyl orange is examined by using UTO as sorbents under dark-state absorption. Based on the orthogonal experiments, we obtained the optimal operating parameters: urea 8.0wt%, soaking time 3h, calcination temperature 300°C and heating rate 10°C/min. As the preparation condition was run at the optimal conditions, the decoloration efficiency of methyl orange reached 98.1%, which was significantly better than the undoped samples. Thus, it is feasible to treat dye wastewater by these UTO sorbents.
