Abstract

Using aluminum sulfate as aluminum source and ammonium bicarbonate as precipitator,pseudo-boehmite was prepared in a multi-channel impinging-flow microreactor.The pseudo-boehmite was calcined at 600 ℃ for 4 h to obtain γ-Al2O3.The γ-Al2O3 were characterized by fourier infrared spectroscopy,X-ray diffractometry,thermogravimetric differential thermal analyzer,field emission scanning electron microscopy,transmission electron microscopy,specific surface area and porosity analysis,ultraviolet spectrophotometer and Zeta potential analyzer.The adsorption properties of γ-Al2O3 prepared by different methods on methyl orange were studied.The results showed that the adsorption properties of γ-Al2O3 prepared by microreaction method was higher than conventional titration method.The adsorption process of methyl orange was consistent with Langmuir monomolecular layer model,and the adsorption kinetics was consistent with quasi-second-order kinetics.The optimum application conditions of γ-Al2O3 adsorbent were studied.Under optimal application conditions,the adsorption ratio of γ-Al2O3 to methyl orange was 58.8% within 5 min and 89.7% within 10 min and reached the highest 98.9% at adsorbed equilibrium.Cyclic experiments showed that γ-Al2O3 had excellent stability and maintained high decolorization ratio of methyl orange(95.6%) after four thermal regeneration cycles.
