Experimental Study of Adsorption of Ammonia Nitrogen from Wastewater onto the Bagasse Adsorbent

Abstract:

Adsorption of ammonia nitrogen from aqueous solution onto the bagasse adsorbent has been investigated to evaluate the effects of Adsorbent dose, initial NH₄⁺-N concentration, and pH on the removal systematically. With increasing initial concentration, the amount of ammonia nitrogen sorbed onto the adsorbent increased until it gradually decreased due to the initial concentration exceed 50 mg·L^-1, and the maximum adsorption capacity was observed for the sample to be 1.31 mg·g^-1 at the initial concentration of 30 mg·L^-1, and the corresponding removal rates decreased from 94.01 to 3.89%, with increase in initial concentration from 5 to 100 mg·L^-1. Adsorption capacities decreased from 6.04 to 0.49 mg·g^-1 with increasing adsorbent dose from 0.1 to 1.5g. What’s more, under alkaline condition, the removal efficiency of ammonia nitrogen from aqueous solution onto the samples were superior to that under acidity and neutrality condition.
