Abstract

In this study, hybrid adsorbents (SS) were prepared by mixing spent coffee grounds (SCG) and sericite, a kind of clay minerals, to adsorb Pb(II) from an aqueous solution. In FT-IR analyses, the main functional groups of SS adsorbents were O-H, C=O and C-N groups. The specific surface area, cation exchange capacity and the pore diameter of SS were larger than those of using SCG and sericite. Formation conditions of the SS adsorbent were the optimum pyrolysis temperature of $300^{\circ}C$, SCG : sericite ratio of 8 : 2, and particle size of 0.3 mm. Langmuir adsorption isotherm was more suitable than Freundlich one, and the maximum adsorption capacity was reached 44.42 mg/g. As a result of the adsorption thermodynamic analysis, the adsorption of Pb(II) onto SS was the physical adsorption and exothermic process in nature. The regeneration of SS adsorbent using distilled water showed 88~92% recovery and the active site of SS adsorbent decreased with increasing the reuse cycle time. As a result, SS adsorbent showed that it can be used to remove Pb(II) easily, inexpensively and efficiently without any pre-treatment from aqueous solutions.

본 연구에서는 수용액에서 Pb(II)를 흡착 제거하기 위하여 커피찌꺼기(spent coffee grounds; SCG)와 점토광물인 견운모(sericite)를 혼합하여 복합흡착제(SS)를 제조하였다. FT-IR 분석결과 SS의 주요 관능기는 O-H, C=O와 C-N 그룹이었다. SS의 비표면적, 기공직경 그리고 양이온 치환 용량은 SCG와 sericite보다 크고, 높았다. SS 흡착제 제조를 위한 최적의 조건은 소성온도 $300^{\circ}C$, SCG : sericite 비율 8 : 2, 입자의 크기는 0.3 mm이었다. SS 흡착제를 이용하여 Pb(II)를 제거하기 위한 실험에서는 Langmuir 흡착식이 Freundlich보다 적합하였으며, Langmuir 등온흡착식에 의한 Pb(II)의 최대 흡착용량은 44.42 mg/g이었다. 또한, 열역학 분석에 의하면 SS 흡착제를 이용한 Pb(II)의 흡착 공정은 물리적인 흡착이었으며, 자연적인 발열반응이었다. SS 흡착제의 흡착-탈착 실험에서는 88-92%를 회수할 수 있었으나, 탈착 횟수가 증가할수록 SS 흡착제의 활성사이트는 감소하였다. 위의 실험결과 SS 흡착제는 전처리 없이 저렴하고, 효율적으로 Pb(II)를 수용액에서 흡착 제거할 수 있다.
