Adsorption behavior and mechanism of lead by starch/tobermorite composite hydrogel.

Tobermorite (TOB) is a synthetic inorganic mineral material with a montmorillonite-like layered structure that removes heavy metals from water, and its incorporation into starch-based hydrogels can optimize the stability and adsorption properties of the hydrogels; it can also significantly reduce the storage pressure of fly ash (FA) and reduce environmental pollution. This study utilized starch/tobemolite/acrylic acid (LR/TOB/AA) as the raw material, successfully synthesizing a starch-tobemolite composite hydrogel (LR-TOB/AA) using aqueous solution polymerization. The hydrogel exhibits excellent water absorption and retention capabilities, as well as a significant adsorption effect on Pb(II).

The role of reagent adding sequence in the NH-N recovery by MAP method.

Ammonium-nitrogen (NH-N) recovery from high concentration of NH-N-containing wastewater by struvite (MgNHPO·6HO, MAP) precipitation method has been realized, but whether NH-N recovery under different reagent adding sequence of NaOH, solid Mg salt and P salt can generate different effects, remains ambiguous. In view of the problem, four modes to add reagents were investigated in detail on the formation of struvite. The results show that the Mode IV (M-IV, i.

Ultrasound-Enhanced Catalytic Ozonation Oxidation of Ammonia in Aqueous Solution.

Excessive ammonia is a common pollutant in the wastewater, which can cause eutrophication, poison aquatic life, reduce water quality and even threaten human health. Ammonia in aqueous solution was converted using various systems, i.e.
