Removal of Toxic Phenolic Compounds from Wastewater Using Zeolite (4A) Prepared from Local Clays Taken from the Slopes of the Tigris River

Abstract:

The massive scale of industrial development has resulted in environmental pollution in general and water contamination in particular. It is important at the present time to treat water for the purpose of eliminating or reducing pollutants, especially toxic pollutants, such as phenol compounds. In this study, zeolite (4A) was prepared firstly from the available and cheap materials using an inclined rotary disk. Then, physical, mechanical, and chemical properties were also studied. Experiments were conducted to determine these properties using local clay and the following results were obtained: Zeolite (4A) 70% and clay 30%, the time of calcination 3 h at a temperature of 850¢ŞC, breakage resistance of 17 Ib pounds, surface area 530-590 m2/g, grinding value 14% and moisture absorption ratio 30%. The prepared zeolite (4A) was used in the process of removing phenolic compounds (chlorophenol, nitrophenol) by the adsorption method. Different amounts of prepared zeolite (5g/l and 10g/L) will be used in the treatment process and different concentrations (2mg/L, 5 mg/L and 10 mg/L) of the pollutants Nitrophenol and Chlorophenol were used in the contaminated water tested. The removal process was carried out with a mixing speed of 200 rpm and pH (7.5-8.5). From the results of this study, we note that the highest percentage of Nitrophenol removal is (84.8%) when using an amount of zeolite (5g) and highest percentage of Nitrophenol removal is (95.5%) when using an amount of zeolite (10g) while that the highest percentage of Chlorophenol removal is (78.3%) when using an amount of zeolite (5g) and highest percentage of Chlorophenol removal is (0.894) when using an amount of zeolite (10g) it could be deduced that the percentage of the removal of nitrophenol was higher than that of chlorophenol because its solubility of chlorophenol in water is higher than the solubility of Nitrophenol.
