Adsorption of Cr(VI) onto the Cross-Linked Cationic Starch and the Establishment of the Adsorption Isotherm and Kinetic Equation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Glycidyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (GTA) has been synthesized and used as cross-linked cationic reagent to prepare modified starch. The adsorption behavior of Cr(VI) onto the cross-linked cationic starch was studied systematically. The adsorption time and the temperature took great effects on the adsorption performance of the adsorbent. After a suitable time the adsorption could reach an equilibrium state and the adsorption capacity increased with the decrease of the temperature. The adsorption isotherm and the kinetic equation were established and they fit well with the Freundlich and Lagergren models, respectively. The used adsorbent was regenerated with acid medium and the recycling of the regenerated adsorbent has also been investigated.
