Studies on the Removal of Tetracycline by a Kind of Nano-Sized Amorphous Carbon

Article Preview

Abstract:

Through the application of electrochemistry, CO2 was captured in an eutectic mixture of Li-Na-K carbonates before forming a nanosized amorphous carbon powder. The carbon powder was used to study on the absorption on tetracycline in aqueous solutions. At 298K, the maximum adsorption capacity of tetracycline reached 127.76mg/g. The sorption data could be well fitted into pseudo-second-order kinetics and Frendlich sorption isotherms. The adsorption process was endothermic, spontaneous and irreversible.
