About this Materials Science article

Rationally Designed and Hierarchically Structured Functionalized Aluminium Organic Frameworks Incorporated Chitosan Hybrid Beads for Defluoridation of Water by Antonysamy Jeyaseelan; Ilango Aswin Kumar; Natrayasamy Viswanathan; Mu. Naushad is a Materials Science article available to read on EtoBox.

In this present investigation, aluminium (Al) fabricated 2-aminobenzene-1,4-dicarboxylic acid (ABDC) namely Al@ABDC metal organic frameworks (MOFs) was developed for defluoridation studies. The unique advantages of developed MOFs possess high selectivity, high porosity and enhanced surface area but the developed powder form of Al@ABDC MOFs has several limitations in field applications like slow filtration and column blockage. To prevail over these troubles, biopolymer namely chitosan (CS) supported Al@ABDC MOFs namely Al@ABDC-CS beads were developed for effective fluoride adsorption from water. The synthesized Al@ABDC-CS beads were employed for the retention of fluoride in batch level. The defluoridation capacities (DCs) of Al@ABDC MOFs and Al@ABDC-CS beads were found to be 4880 and 4900 mgF kg respectively. The influencing parameters of adsorption method namely agitation time, adsorbent dosage, initial fluoride concentration, pH, co-existing anions and temperature were exploit to get utmost defluoridation capacity (DC) of Al@ABDC-CS beads. The experimental data of Al@ABDC-CS beads have been evaluated utilizing Langmuir, Fruendlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) isotherms. The defl

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Materials Science.
