The waste clay was mixed with NaOH powder (the weight ratio of NaOH/waste clay = 1.0) and then heated at 300°C for 1 h to make a fused material. This fused material was then added to distilled water, and then heated at 90°C, 120°C, 150°C and 180°C for 12 h in reaction bombs under autogenous pressure in order to synthesize the cation exchanger. As a result, waste cake can be converted into fused material with high solubility, and zeolitic materials can be synthesized from the fused material. A mixture of zeolite-X and hydroxysodalite was synthesized at 90°C and 120°C, hydroxysodalite alone was synthesized at 150°C and 180°C. By increasing the synthesis temperature, the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of the product decreased, and the highest CEC of the product at 90°C, including zeolite-X, was 2.06 mmol/g, which is 64.3% of commercial zeolite-13X (3.2 mmol/g).展开更多

The modifiers used include hydrochloric acid (HCl), citric acid, sodium hydroxide (NaOH), ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH), sodium chloride (NaCl) and zinc chloride (ZnCl2). The results obtained showed that equilibrium adsorption of naphthalene from the bulk solution was attained at a faster rate using modified clay when compared with the unmodified clay. HCl-modified clay had the highest rate of adsorption with a surface area and porosity of 49.05 mm2 and 53.4%. This was closely followed by NaOH-modified clay while down the order was the ZnCl2-modified clay which had the least rate of adsorption with a surface area of 44.3 mm2 and porosity of 43.4%. The implication of the retention time obtained from the equilibrium study is significant as it provides the bench mark for interplay between sorption and degradation for transport and transformation of contaminant solutes within the soil matrix.展开更多
