Synthesis of Lignin-Based Dithiocarbamate and its Performance in Pb2+ Removal

Article Preview

Abstract:

Lignin-based dithiocarbamate (LBDTC) was prepared from lignin, formaldehyde, triethylene tetramine (TETA), carbon bisulfide and sodium hydroxide. The structure of LBDTC was characterized by FTIR and elementary analysis, and its removal performances towards Pb2+ were investigated. The results show that LBDTC is more effective than sodium triethylenetetramine-multidithiocarbamate (TETAMDT) prepared according to the same molar ratios of TETA, CS2, and NaOH and xanthation conditions used during LBDTC synthesis and much more effective than lignin for removing Pb2+. It was observed that LBDTC could effectively reduce 100 mg/L Pb2+ in wastewater to 0.05 mg/L, which is far lower than the discharge limit of 1.0 mg/L. It was also observed that LBDTC has a wide suitable pH range of 4.9-12.5. This can overcome the drawback of narrow pH scopes observed for traditional precipitation methods.
