Fluoride ion adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamics on iron(III) oxyhydroxide powders containing cellulose nanofibrils.

ABSTRACT: The adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and thermodynamics of fluoride ions (F^-) on FeOOH powders in water were investigated to obtain fundamental information on FeOOH powders, which are used as F^- adsorbents in drinking and industrial water, and industrial wastewater. FeOOH powders were prepared as precipitates by mixing aqueous FeCl₃ and NaOH solutions (1:3 mol/mol) in the presence of 2,2,6,6,-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (TEMPO)-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNs), carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), or TEMPO-oxidized cellulose (TOC) fibers (without nanofibrillation), and subsequent drying and pulverizing. The FeOOH:TOCN, FeOOH:CMC, and FeOOH:TOC dry mass ratios were controlled at 87:13. The amount of F^- adsorbed by the FeOOH/TOCN powder per
