Characterization of Copper Adsorption onto an Alginate Encapsulated Magnetic Sorbent by a Combined FT-IR, XPS, and Mathematical Modeling Study
Abstract
Copper adsorption onto calcium alginate encapsulated magnetic sorbent is studied in this paper. The objective of this study was to qualitatively and quantitatively elucidate the copper binding onto the sorbent. The adsorption increases from around 0 to almost 100% as the initial pH is increased from 2 to 5. A maximum adsorption capacity of 0.99 mmol g(-1) is achieved. The FT-IR and XPS studies show that the C-O in carboxyl group of alginate directly attaches to the copper ion that leads to most of the adsorption. A mathematical model is developed, and it includes ion exchange between the calcium and the copper, coordination reaction between the functional group and the copper, as well as surface complex formation between the iron oxide and the copper. The model is capable of describing and predicting effects of various key operational parameters on the adsorption process, such as initial pH, metal concentration, and dosage of sorbent.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
