Sorption Equilibrium of Aromatic Pollutants onto Dissolved Humic Acids
2017
Leone, Vincenzo | Musmarra, Dino | Iovino, Pasquale | Capasso, Sante
The adsorption of some benzene derivatives—o-xylene, toluene, phenol, and benzyl alcohol onto dissolved humic acids (HA) was analyzed by equilibrium dialyses experiments. HA were extracted from compost and from leonardite. The humification index (E₄/E₆ ratio) and the distribution coefficient between ammonium sulfate/polyethylene glycol solutions show that HA from compost have a higher hydrophobicity. Assuming that the binding sites onto HA molecules are energetically equivalent, the binding curves were analyzed, and the amount of ligands bound per unit weight of HA and the association constants were derived. The binding capacity was higher for the HA from compost and for more hydrophobic ligands.
