Removal of 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid (2, 4-D) From Aqueous Environments Using Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes

Abstract: Background: 2, 4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4-D) is a widely used herbicide known to be moderately toxic. Extensive use and poor biodegradability of 2, 4-D has resulted in its ubiquitous presence in the environment, and has led to contamination of surface and ground waters. Objectives: At present study, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) were used for the sorption of 2, 4-D from aqueous solutions. Materials and Methods: The effect of various operating parameters such as initial concentration of 2, 4-D… Show more

“…At the adsorbent dosage of 0.06 g/L, relatively high removal efficiency (77.76%) and adsorption capacity (51.84 mg/g) were achieved. The increase of adsorbent's dosage means the increased number of active sites and the available surface centers of nanocomposite, causing the expected improvement of removal efficiency [61,67]. Meanwhile, the adsorbed amount of nanocomposite reduces by increasing the dosage, as some available sites on the absorbent surface had not been saturated and the adsorbate to absorbent ratio declined [68,69].…”

“…Therefore, several methods such as photocatalytic degradation, advanced oxidation, electrochemical oxidation, biological treatment, ion exchange, membrane technology and activated carbon adsorption have been proposed by researchers to remove 2,4-D from water and soils. Among these methods, adsorption is the most effective and widely utilized in the industry to remove hazardous organic and inorganic pollutants in water due to its simple, costeffective process and high flexibility in design and operation [4,9,10].…”
