Synthesis, characterization and application of new adsorbent composites based on sol-gel/chitosan for the removal of soluble substance in water.

ABSTRACT: In this work, new adsorbent composites from the silica precursor tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and chitosan have been successfully synthesized, denominated 20%Chi, 30%Chi and 40%Chi. The composites presented enhanced chemical and physical characteristics, with emphasis on the high surface areas between 374.94 m²/g to 886.31 m²/g. The application of the composites in the model system (TY - Tartrazine yellow dye), presented adsorption capacities dependent on the amount of chitosan in the composite (40%Chi > 30%Chi > 20%Chi). However, from the experimental data of the constituent materials, 30%Chi provided the greatest increase in the adsorption capacity in the monolayer, with values of 36%. This demonstrates that the amount of chitosan in the compound alters the arrangement of adsorption sites. The 30%Chi composite presented life cycle superior to 10 reuse cycles.

Project description:Oil and gas extraction frequently produces substantial volumes of produced water, leading to several mechanical and environmental issues. Several methods have been applied over decades, including chemical processes such as in-situ crosslinked polymer gel and preformed particle gel, which are the most effective nowadays. This study developed a green and biodegradable PPG made of PAM and chitosan as a blocking agent for water shutoff, which will contribute to combating the toxicity of several commercially used PPGs. The applicability of chitosan to act as a crosslinker has been confirmed by FTIR spectroscopy and observed by scanning electron microscopy. Extensive swelling capacity measurements and rheological experiments were performed to examine the optimal formulation of PAM/Cs based on several PAM and chitosan concentrations and the effects of typical reservoir conditions, such as salinity, temperature, and pH. The optimum concentrations of PAM with 0.5 wt% chitosan were between 5-9 wt%, while the optimum chitosan amount with 6.5 wt% PAM was in the 0.25-0.5 wt% range, as these concentrations can produce PPGs with high swellability and sufficient strength. The swelling capacity of PAM/Cs is lower in high saline water (HSW) with a TDS of 67.2976 g/L compared with fresh water, which is related to the osmotic pressure gradient between the swelling medium and the PPG. The swelling capacity in freshwater was up to 80.37 g/g, while it is 18.73 g/g in HSW. The storage moduli were higher in HSW than freshwater, with ranges of 1695-5000 Pa and 2053-5989 Pa, respectively. The storage modulus of PAM/Cs samples was higher in a neutral medium (pH = 6), where the fluctuation behavior in different pH conditions is related to electrostatic repulsions and hydrogen bond formation. The increase in swelling capacity caused by the progressive increment in temperature is associated with the amide group's hydrolysis to carboxylate groups. The sizes of the swollen particles are controllable since they are designed to be 0.63-1.62 mm in DIW and 0.86-1.00 mm in HSW. PAM/Cs showed promising swelling and rheological characteristics while demonstrating long-term thermal and hydrolytic stability in high-temperature and high-salinity conditions.
