Adsorption of Chromium (VI) from Aqueous Solution Using Nano TiO2 Doped Strong Base Anion Exchange Resin



The evolution of environmentally-safe methods for treating hazardous chemicals in wastewater, particularly urban and industrial wastewater, has increased interest over recent years. The chromium-containing wastewater is produced by industries from steel, metallurgical, electroplating, chemical, refractory, leather tanning, dye manufacturing, mining, cementing, textiles, etc. Consequently, advanced techniques are essential for treating chromium-polluted water.



The prime objective of this effort was to assess the adsorption performance of nanoTiO2 (nanoparticles of average crystallite size 19.15 nm) doped strong base anion exchange resin (TD-Tulsion) for Cr(VI)to that of the host Tulsion A-62 (MP).



The tests were carried out in batches in the temperature-controlled water bath shaking unit, with 30 ml of the aqueous solution containing Cr(VI) and a certain amount of resin being stirred for 6 hours at 303 K. Using a standard diphenylcarbazide (DPC) procedure at 540 nm, the solution was spectrophotometrically analyzed for Cr(VI).



The majority of the Cr(VI) ions are adsorbed by the anion exchange resins Tulsion A-62(MP), and TD-Tulsion is in the pH range of 4.0 to 5.0. The maximal sorption capacity of Cr (VI) was established to be 181.5 and 204.8 mg/g for Tulsion A-62(MP) and TD-Tulsion, respectively.



The TD-Tulsion has a substantially better adsorption capacity than Tulsion A-62(MP) under similar conditions. The outcomes show that modifying anion-exchange resin with nano titanium dioxide improves adsorption performance in Cr(VI) removal from drinking water and contaminated water.
