title: Biosorption of palladium(II) from aqueous solution by grafting chitosan on persimmon tannin extract.
abstract: A low-cost and environmentally green biosorbent (PTCS) was prepared by grafting chitosan onto persimmon tannin extract and its potentiality for efficient adsorption of palladium ion (Pd(II)) from aqueous solution was evaluated. Various adsorption parameters such as pH, the initial Pd(II) concentration and temperature were investigated. The maximum adsorption capacity reached 330mg/g at 323K and pH 5.0 when the initial Pd(II) concentration was 100mg/L. The equilibrium adsorption data were satisfactorily fitted with Freundlich isotherm model and biosorption kinetics was found to be in good agreement with pseudo-second-order kinetics model. Thermodynamic calculations indicated that the adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous in nature because of the negative value of free energy change (ΔG) and positive value of enthalpy change (ΔH). The positive value of entropy change (ΔS) revealed the increased randomness at the solid-liquid interface. FT-IR and XRD analysis verified that Pd(II) adsorption on PTCS was electrostatic interaction and redox reaction. Moreover, selective adsorption study revealed that the adsorbent exhibited good adsorption ability to Pd(II) in the mixture metal ions solutions. All these results indicated that the PTCS biosorbent could be used as a low-cost alternative for the adsorption of Pd(II) in waste-water treatment.
