Abstract

Kapok fibers (Ceiba pentandra) were modified for the removal of copper ions from aqueous solutions through adsorption. In this fast and facile method, the polysaccharide-like groups of kapok were oxidized with potassium periodate. The novel modification is the loading of the fibers with adipic dihydrazide (ADH) which contain nitrogen and oxygen atoms for heavy metal ion binding. Adsorption experiments have been carried out and analyzed via atom absorption spectroscopy and ultraviolet/visible spectroscopy. In preliminary adsorption experiments, different kapok-based materials have been analyzed on their adsorption capacity and removal efficiency via atom absorption spectroscopy. ADH-modified fibers showed the best results and an increase of copper removal efficiency by 30% in comparison to untreated kapok fibers and superior adsorption capacity compared to kapok fibers loaded with oxalic dihydrazide (ODH). Moreover, the impact of initial concentration and contact time on the adsorption capacity and on the removal efficiency values of the ADH-modified kapok fibers has been studied. Another comparison of the ADH-modified fibers with raw kapok which was cleaned with Milli-Q water, dichloromethane and ethylene glycol showed that the new adsorbents are best suited for copper solutions with concentration values of under 10 mg/L. The heavy metal adsorption experiments were analyzed through both isotherm models Langmuir and Freundlich. The Langmuir model is found to be a suitable model for copper ions. The value of the maximum adsorption capacity is 4.120 mg/g. The ADH-modified kapok fibers were characterized with attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy, magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS-NMR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
