Removal of ammonia by natural clay minerals using fixed and fluidised bed column reactors

Abstract: A series of fixed and fluidised bed ion exchange column runs were conducted to identify the ability of natural clay minerals, sepiolite and clinoptilolite, to remove ammonia from a contaminated drinking water reservoir. Ion exchange column tests using both fixed and fluidised bed were initially carried out with synthetic water composed of NH4Cl. Breakthrough curves as a function of flow rate, particle size, and initial ammonia concentration reveal that sepiolite does not have as high ion exchange capacity as c… Show more

“…The exhausted column was subjected to desorption to regenerate the adsorbent using a 1.0 M NaCl solution at pH 12 (adjusted using sodium hydroxide) (Celik et al, 2001 To regenerate the column, NaCl was pumped through the adsorbent in the up flow mode and the breakthrough solution was collected for determination of ammonia content.…”

“…Zeolit jenis klinoptilolit mempunyai kapasitas menyerap ion yang tinggi, sehingga dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai reservoir amonia. Proses pelepasan amonia yang cepat akan menjadi lambat setelah ada penambahan zeolit jenis klinoptilolit sehingga pemanfaatan amonia akan lebih efisien (Celik et al, 2011).…”

“…In figure 3 that plotted from data in table 2 the rate of nitrification measured as mg N oxidized l -1 hr -1 is plotted vs. the concentration of MLVSS. [7,9,10]. This process is rapid and time required for regeneration depends very much upon the nitrifying activity of the sludge used.…”

“…Clinoptilolite is a natural zeolite that has been known for their ability to remove ammonium from polluted waters. The capacity of zeolite and chemical regeneration for ammonium removal was investigated in several studies [3][4][5][6][7][8]. Usually, the service cycle is a down flow packed bed column followed by chemical regeneration (usually by NaCl).The major drawback of this process is the high cost of the chemical regeneration stage and disposal of the concentrated ammonium-sodium brain produced [9].…”
