BIOSORPTION OF NITROPHENOLS ON ANAEROBIC GRANULAR SLUDGE

摘要

The sorption and desorption of 2-nitrophenol (2-NP), 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) and 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP) on live anaerobic granular sludge was studied at five different sorbate (nitrophenols) concentrations between 10x10~3-90x10~3 μg 1~(-1). Experiments were conducted at room temperature (29 + - 2℃) and at an initial pH of 7.5. The maximum uptake capacity of live anaerobic granular sludge was found to be 1427,1511 and 1865 μg g~(-1) VSS for 2-NP, 4-NP and 2,4-DNP, respectively. The equilibrium data of three nitrophenols obeyed both Freundlich and linear isotherm models. Sorption was observed to be partially reversible. About 20-89%, 36-90% and 29-80% desorption was observed for 10x10~3-90x10~3 μg 1~(-1) sorbate concentrations of 2-NP, 4-NP and 2,4-DNP, respectively.
