In this work, we synthesized an ionic liquid (IL)—(Dimethylamino)ethyl Methacrylate maleate ([DMAEMA]MA) as the crosslinker, through one-pot to synthesized hydrogels with high adsorption capacity for dye in water. Both anionic dyes (methylene blue, rhodamine B) and cationic dyes (congo red, eosin B) could be adsorbed by this type of hydrogel with different adsorption mechanism, and its adsorption capacity for methylene blue (MB), rhodamine B (RHB), congo red (CR), eosin B (EB) were 489.1, 463.2, 465.5 and 462 mg/g (amount of dye adsorbed per gram of hydrogel), respectively. The surface structure of the hydrogel before and after adsorption was observed and compared by scanning electron microscope (SEM). After studying the adsorption isotherms of the hydrogel adsorbent, it was found that the hydrogel adsorbent had two adsorption mechanisms. This was not found in reported literatures previously.
A novel chitosan-based polymeric surfactant, Oleoyl-Carboxymethyl chitosan (O-CMCS) was produced as a coagulation agent to clean the residual oil from the wastewater of oil extraction (WWOE). O-CMCS was synthesized by reacting carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) with oleoyl chloride. The chemical structures of chitosan and its derivatives were characterized by FTIR. The destabilization of oil in water was successfully actualized by the application of O-CMCS (the optimal adsorbent with a dosage of 0.2 g/L; mixing time Ն3 min; the broader pH 0-8.05; the temperature Յ45°C; initial concentration of residual oil Ͻ140 mg/L), which showed a enhancement for the effective adsorption for the residue oil from WWOE.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
