Abstract:
We studied the isothermal adsorption of naphthalene on a viscose-based activated carbon fiber (VACF) in aqueous solution. The adsorption experimental data were fitted to adsorption equations such as the Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevitch(D-R), Dubinin-Astalov(D-A), Langmuir-Freundlich(L-F), and Redlich-Peterson (R-P) equations. The effects of temperature, pH, and pre-loaded copper ions on the VACF on the adsorption of naphthalene were investigated. The fitting results show that the micropore volume filling theory fits better than the single-layer adsorption theory for naphthalene adsorption onto VACF. The adsorption of naphthalene occurs spontaneously between 20 and 40 ° C. The adsorption capacity of VACF for naphthalene decreases significantly above 30 ° C. A new mechanism is proposed to explain why the adsorption capacity increases significantly in lower pH aqueous solutions. The reduction of naphthalene takes place on the VACF with pre-loaded copper ions. © Editorial office of Acta Physico-Chimica Sinica.
