Synthesis and application of mixed manganese - Iron oxide nanoparticles for adsorption of as(v) from aqueous solutions
A simple method has been used to synthesize nanoparticles of mixed manganese-iron oxide
for the adsorption of As(V) metal ions from aqueous solutions. Transmission Electron
Microscopy (TEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), BET analysis were used to determine particle size
and characterization of produced nanoparticles. The x-ray diffraction pattern indicated that
the as-synthesized adsorbent is amorphous with 288.268 m2/g surface area; the amorphous
synthesized products were aggregated with many nanosized particles. The crystallinity of the
Mn2O3/Fe2O3 were obtained at 400°C and 600°C calcination temperature. The FTIR spectra
confirmed the presence of -OH group and H-O-H group localized at 3200 - 3400 cm–1 and
1618-1653 cm−1; theses intense bands is weak (fade) at the high calcination temperature of
the mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles. In addition, when the calcination
temperature of the mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles was 400OC, the weak
absorption bands at 630 cm−1 due to the vibrations of (Fe-O). The results showed that the
mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles has high selectivity for As(V).

KỶ YẾU HỘI NGHỊ KHOA HỌC THƯỜNG NIÊN TRƯỜNG ĐẠI HỌC ĐÀ LẠT NĂM 2018 55 1. INTRODUCTION Water plays important roles in the natural environment, human activities, and social development. However, the presence of arsenic in natural waters has become a worldwide problem in the past decades [1,2]. Arsenic pollution has been reported recently in USA, China, Chile, Bangladesh, Taiwan, Mexico, Romania, United Kingdom, Argentina, Poland, Canada, Hungary, New Zealand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Japan and India [1-7]. Arsenic commonly exists as two inorganic forms of arsenite (AsO33−) and arsenate (AsO43−) which are the popular forms in water and referred to as As(III) and As(V). In general, As(V) is stable in aerobic environment and As(III) often exists in anaerobic environment. The toxicity of arsenic species is different, generally the toxicity of inorganic arsenic compounds is about 100 times higher than organic arsenic compounds, and the toxicity of inorganic As(III) compounds are approximately 60–80 times higher to humans than As(V) compounds [4-10]. They causes skin, lung, bladder and kidney cancer as well as pigmentation changes, skin thickening (hyperkeratosis), neurological disorders, muscular weakness, loss of appetite and nausea [5-12]. Therefore, it is really necessary to remove arsenic from water to make sure that our environment is safe. Adsorption has been recognized as a promising technique for removing arsenic from drinking water due to its high removal capacity and ease of operation. However, As(III) is less efficiently removed than As(V) from aqueous solutions by almost all of the arsenic removal technologies and pre-oxidation of As(III) to As(V) is required [4-17]. Recently, increasing attention has been focused on metal oxide sorbents such as iron, aluminum, titanium, manganese, and zirconium. Among these iron oxides were the mostly studied because of their high affinity to arsenic species, low cost and environmental friendliness [8-21]. Most recently, many researchers used metal composite materials (containing two or more metals) as adsorbents to remove As from contaminated water. The results showed that the composite metal oxides can not only inherit the advantages of parent oxides but also show a synergistic effect of higher adsorption capacity than that of individual metal oxides (Lata and Samadder 2016). For instances, Zhang et al. (2005) developed an Fe-Ce bimetal oxide sorbent, which has a much higher As(V) adsorption capacity than the individual Ce and Fe oxide. Zhang et al. (2007) prepared an Fe-Mn binary oxide sorbent, exhibiting a greater enhancement in both As(V) and As(I ... posite particles (the synthesized products) with different magnification From the SEM photographs, it was understood that the grains are connected with each other. (It was found that the grains present jointly with each other). In few places, bigger grains are also seen. It is seen that the synthesized products consists of nanoparticles aggregated together to form large clusters. It is a common phenomenon when amorphous nanoparticles are annealed [31]. Fig. 5. The TEM image of the manganese-iron oxide nanocomposite The TEM analysis shows the particles size of the mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles are in the range of 20-30nm (fig.5). The surface area of the mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles were measured by a BET analyzer, and the surface area of the samples was calculated to be 288.268 m²/g.

Affecting Factors Effect of pH Determination of optimum pH is very important since the pH value affects not only the surface charge of adsorbent, but also the degree of ionization and speciation of adsorbate during reaction. Adsorption experiments were carried out in the pH range of 2- 6 for the synthesized products by keeping all other parameters constant (As(V) concentration = mg/l; stirring speed = 240 rpm; contact time = 120 min, adsorbent dose = 0.1g, room temperature = 25°C). The result showed that more adsorption at acidic pH indicates that the lower pH results in an increase in H+ ions on the adsorbent surface that results is significantly strong electrostatic attraction between positively charged adsorbent surface and As(V) arsenate ions (divalent HAsO42- or monovalent H2AsO4-). Lesser adsorption of As(V) at pH values greater than 6.0 may be due the dual competition of both the anions (HAsO42- and OH-) to be adsorbed on the surface of the adsorbent of which OH- predominates. Figure 6. Effect of pH on the As(V) adsorption Effect of contact time The effect of contact time was studied at optimum condition of dose, pH, and agitation speed. From Fig. 7, it is observed that the adsorption of As(V) increased as contact time increased. The adsorption percentage of metal ions approached equilibrium within 120 min. After this equilibrium period, the amount of adsorbed metal ions did not significantly change with time. 50 60 70 80 90 100 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 A ds or pt io n, (% ) pH 250 ppm 300 ppm KỶ YẾU HỘI NGHỊ KHOA HỌC THƯỜNG NIÊN TRƯỜNG ĐẠI HỌC ĐÀ LẠT NĂM 2018 62 Figure 7. Effect of contact time on the As(V) adsorption Effect of initial As(V) concentration The adsorption of As(V) with synthesized products was studied by varying As(V) concentration (100ppm - 1000ppm) keeping other parameters (adsorbent dose, stirring speed, solution pH, temperature and contact time) constant. As illustrated in Fig. 8, As(V) uptake reduced from 99.89% to ~ 30%, as the As(V) concentration increased from 100ppm to 1000ppm. Figure 8. Effect of initial As(V) concentrations on the As(V) adsorption 3.2.2. Comparation of Bivalent Cationic Metals Adsorption Cd(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and As(V) on mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles The results of Table 1 showed that the mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles have not successfully used for the adsorption of Cd(II) , Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II) ions from aqueous solution on concentration of 20ppm for each (or more), inversely strongly adsorption of As(V) on mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles.

Danny et al. (2004) and Lee and Moon (2001) explained that the smaller the ionic radius and the greater the valence, the more closely and strongly is the ion adsorbed [32-34]. Therefore, the mixed manganese-iron oxide nanoparticles have successfully used for the adsorption of As(V) from aqueous solution. Table 1.

CONCLUSION A simple method has been used to synthesize nanoparticles of mixed manganese- iron oxide for the adsorption of As(V) metal ions from aqueous solutions under batch conditions. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), BET analysis were used to determine particle size and characterization of produced nanoparticles. Moreover, the effects of pH, contact time and adsorbent weight on adsorption process were investigated. The high uptake of As(V) by the mixed manganese- iron oxide nanoparticles may be due to its relatively high surface area.
