چکیده

به‌منظور پیشگیری از خطرات ناشی از مقادیر زیاد فلوراید، حذف این ماده از طریق تصفیه آب تا حد استاندارد آب آشامیدنی، ضروری به‌نظر می‌رسد. هدف از این مطالعه بررسی عملکرد نوعی رزین جاذب آبدار در حذف فلوراید از آب بود. آزمایش‌ها در محیط بسته انجام گردید و تأثیر پارامترهای زمان تماس (5 تا 120 دقیقه) ، ) pH9-3) و ایزوترم‌های جذب مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. میزان جذب فلوراید در آغاز سریع بود، سپس میزان جذب با سرعت کمتری تا رسیدن به‌حالت تعادل در 120 دقیقه ادامه یافت. حذف بهینه فلوراید در محیط‌های اسیدی یعنی pH بین 3 تا 5/5 مشاهده شد. مدل لانگمیر برای توصیف فرایند جذب در این مطالعه مناسب‌تر بود.

چکیده [English]

Excessive amounts of fluoride in drinking water pose serious health problems. It is, therefore, essential to remove it from drinking water by appropriate water treatment processes down to standard levels for preventing the health risks associated. The aim of this study was to determine the performance of a kind of hybrid sorbent resin in removing fluoride from water. Batch experiments were performed to investigate adsorption isotherms and the effects of experimental parameters such as contact time (5-120 min) and pH (3-9). Results revealed that fluoride adsorption rate was initially rapid but continued at a slower rate before it reached equilibrium in 120 min. Optimum fluoride removal was observed at a pH range of 3-5.5. The data obtained from the experiments were fitted with Langmiur model.
