Adsorption of 2,4-Dichlorophenol on Meta-Aramid/Poly (acylic Acid) Composite Nanofibrous Membranes

Article Preview

Abstract:

Meta-aramid/poly (acylic acid) (PMIA/PAA) composite nanofibrous membranes with diameter between 50-100 nm have been fabricated by electrospinning method. The effect of contact time, temperature, pH and concentration of 2,4-dichlorophenol on the adsorption capacity of the membranes were investigated. The equilibrium adsorption capacity of 2,4-dichlorophenol on PMIA/PAA nanofibrous membranes is 251.61 mg/g. Acidic pH was favorable for the 2,4-dichlorophenol adsorption. Its desorption rate reached 74% in 45 min. After five regeneration cycles, the removal rate of 2,4-dichlorophenol still maintained above 65%. The adsorption of 2,4-dichlorophenol on the membranes fit the Freundlich isotherm model best. Its adsorption kinetics followed a pseudo-second-order model.
