Low-temperature plasma-modified zeolite (LTPMZ) vs. natural Bulgarian zeolite (NBZ) – Comparative physicochemical, UV/VIS and FTIR studies

Abstract: In this study, we investigate and compare the physicochemical and morphological properties, as well as the sorption potential, of a natural Bulgarian zeolite (NBZ) and a low-temperature plasmamodified zeolite (LTPMZ). The NBZ was treated with low-temperature arc plasma. The evolution of the modifications was followed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometric (UV-VIS), physicochemical and sorption studies. Digital microscope analyses proved that the crystallini… Show more

“…Elovich's equation, based on the sorption capacity, is typically expressed as: italicdqtdt=αeβqt where q t (mg g −1 ) is the sorption capacity at time t . The coefficient α (mg g −1 s −1 ) can be considered the initial sorption rate considering that dq t /dt approaches α when q t → 0. β (g mg −1 ) is the absorption constant during any one experiment and it is related to the extent of surface coverage and the activation energy for chemisorption . Integrating considering that q t = q t at t = t and q t = 0 at t = 0 and assuming also that α, β, and t ≫1, eq.…”
