Freundlich Adsorption Isotherm and Electrochemical Characterization of Cellulose acetate-Tween-20 supported liquid membrane
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cellulose acetate (CA) and Tween-20(T-20) are interacted and resulted as a supported liquid membrane system. The membrane potential was measured with uni-uni valent electrolyte, NaCl solutions using saturated calomel electrodes (SCEs).The effective fixed charge density of the membrane was determined by TMS method. Other important electrochemical parameters were calculated. Membrane adsorb-ability showed Freundlich type adsorption. Membrane water uptake with respect to time is observed. Membrane permselectivity (the ability of the membrane to discriminate between the anions (Cl-) and cations (Na+)) is estimated using effective fixed charge density of the membrane. The transport number which quantifies the fraction of the charge carried by certain ion is estimated by membrane potential values. Tween-20 surfactant is most frequently used for membrane surface modification. Electrochemical parameters are estimated under both conditions, i.e. without and with Tween-20 to investigate the effect on the membrane behavior.53% composite membrane of CA/T-20 is obtained as a liquid membrane.

Characterization of the Micromorphology and Topochemistry of Poplar Wood during Mild Ionic Liquid Pretreatment for Improving Enzymatic Saccharification.
Ionic liquids (ILs) as designer solvents have been applied in biomass pretreatment to increase cellulose accessibility and therefore improve the enzymatic hydrolysis. We investigated the characterization of the micromorphology and the topochemistry of poplar wood during 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate pretreatment with mild conditions (90 °C for 20 and 40 min) by multiple microscopic techni...
متن کاملRemoval of Cr (vi) from Aqueous Solution Using Graft Copolymer of Cellulose Extracted from Sisal Fibre with Acrylic Acid Monomer
The extraction of cellulose from sisal fiber was done initially using the steam explosion method. Extracted cellulose was grafted with acrylic acid in the presence of ceric ammonium nitrate redox initiator. The grafting phenomenon taking place between cellulose and the acrylic acid was proved by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The prepared graft copolymer was used as adsorbent f...

Jute modified has been used for adsorption of Cr (VI), Cd (II) and Pb (II) ions over a range ofinitial metal ion concentration. Adsorption process is done in batch mode. Adsorption isotherms ofthe heavy metals on adsorbents prepared were determined and correlated with common isothermequations. It was found that the Freundlich isotherm is better than Langmuir for explaining thebehavior of adsorp...

This work reports the synthesis and characterization of a hybrid molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) membrane for removal of methylene blue (MB) in an aqueous environment. MB-MIP powders were hybridized into a polymer membrane (cellulose acetate (CA) and polysulfone (PSf)) after it was ground and sieved (using 90 µm sieve). MB-MIP membranes were prepared using a phase inversion process. The MB-...
