Kinetic Investigation Of Silica Gel Chemically Modified By Ethylenediamine Bis(Methylene Phosphonic Acid) For Adsorption Of Au(Iii)
Progress in Reaction Kinetics and Mechanism(2010)
Abstract
A novel hybrid material, silica gel chemically modified by ethylenediamine bis(methylene phosphonic acid) (denoted as SH-E-P), has been developed, and FT-IR analysis demonstrated that methylene phosphonic acid groups had been grafted successfully onto the surface of the silica gel. A detailed kinetic investigation of the adsorption of Au(III) onto SH-E-P is reported in this study. The results showed that SH-E-P could reach its saturation adsorption capacity within 4h, with an excellent adsorption capacity for Au(III) of 453.83 mg g(-1) when the initial solution concentration was 2.0 mmol L-1 at 35 degrees C. Moreover, the adsorption kinetics can be closely modelled by a pseudo second-order rate equation. The thermodynamic parameters Delta G, Delta H and Delta S were -19.52 kJ mol(-1), 4.84 kJ mol(-1), and 79.43 J K-1 mol(-1), respectively. It can be concluded that the adsorption of Au(III) on SH-E-P is a spontaneous, endothermic process controlled by film diffusion, which results in its higher adsorption capacity at higher temperatures.
