Abstract:

To investigate the effects of different alkanolamine surfactants on the physicochemical properties and microstructure of Ca(OH)2,as well as its lead adsorption performance,lamellar high specific surface area Ca(OH)2 were prepared by a digestion method using quicklime as the raw material,triisopropanolamine(TIPA),Diethyl alcohol monoisopropanolamine(DEIPA),and triethanolamine(TEA) as the modifying agents respectively,for the treatment of lead⁃containing wastewater.The Ca(OH)2 was characterized using X⁃ray diffraction(XRD),high⁃vacuum gas adsorption analyzer,laser particle size analyzer,and field emission scanning electron microscope(FESEM).The results showed that the lamellar Ca(OH)2 obtained by using TEA had optimal properties,with specific surface area,pore volume and average pore size of 53.94 m²/g,0.208 cm³/g and 11.66 nm,respectively.A possible formation mechanism for the high specific surface area Ca(OH)2 was also proposed.Furthermore,The adsorption process for lead in wastewater was well fitted with Langmuir model(R²=0.992 5) and quasi⁃second⁃order kinetic model(R2=0.999 7),indicating that the adsorption process was mainly a single molecular adsorption process based on chemical adsorption,accompanied by physical adsorption,so that the removal efficiency reached 99.54%,and the residual concentration of lead in water was less than 0.46 mg/L,which was far below the discharge limit.These findings demonstrated the broad application prospects of alkanolamine⁃modified Ca(OH)2 in the treatment of lead⁃containing wastewater.
