Abstract:

Modified expanded graphite(M-EG) was synthesized via same counter ion coordinated phosphate(H3PO4) activation method, as prepared expanded graphite(EG). M-EG was investigated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The adsorbent activities of the EG and M-EG were evaluated for the reduction of acid brilliant blue. The results indicated that the porosity of EG after composite modified expanded, the surface enlarged and the nitrogen- and bromine-containing functional groups increasing. Adsorbent M-EG in acid brilliant blue dye wastewater show high adsorbent activities with a 94.13% reduction at pH=1.0 and 30 ℃. The adsorption reaction of EG line with second-order kinetic adsorption model, and the Langmuir isotherm equation is well fitted; M-EG conform second adsorption kinetics equation, while compliance with Langmuir isotherm model and Freundlich isotherm model, what’s more adsorption kinetics constant is greater than EG’s.
