Bovine Bone Processing for Biofilter Application

Abstract:

This work involves the processing of bovine bone for use as biofilter collector of heavy metals in water. Before processing, it was necessary to clean the bone selected for removing the organic material adhered thereto. Drying was done in weathered during 18 days. Then the bones were calcined at a constant temperature of 750°C for 6 hour. The bone grinding was performed by means of an analytical mill in order to obtain a finer grain size. Once processed, the bovine bone powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction and fluorescence analyses. The results showed that the powder phase is less crystalline hydroxyapatite, when compared to highly crystalline synthetic hydroxyapatite, which favors the sorption capacity of lead by bovine bone.
