Procena efikasnosti uklanjanja teških metala iz vodenih rastvora i industrijske otpadne vode korišćenjem suncokretove ljuske kao biosorbenta

Abstract

U ovom radu korišćena je ljuska suncokreta za procenu efikasnosti uklanjanja teških metala iz vodenih rastvora. Na samom početku optimizovani su uslovi maksimalne adsorpcije teških metala u funkciji pH rastvora i vremena kontakta. Nakon toga, određena je efikasnost uklanjanja Ni iz uzorka otpadne vode korišćenjem suncokretove ljuske kao biosorbenta spektroskopijom laserski indukovane plazme (LIBS) i standardnom spektrohemijskom ICP-OES metodom. Rezultati su upoređeni, a dobijene vrednosti su u opsegu granica nesigurnosti LIBS metode.

In this work, the sunflower husk was used to evaluate the removal efficiency of heavy metals from an aqueous solution. Firstly, the condition for maximum adsorption of heavy metals is optimized as a function of pH and contact time. Тhereafter, the removal efficiency of Ni from the industrial wastewater by the usage of the sunflower husk as a biosorbent was evaluated by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), and by the standard spectrochemical ICP-OES method. The values obtained by these two methods were compared and the results are within the uncertainty of the LIBS method.
