A Comparative Study of Mechanism and Performance of Anionic and Cationic Dialdehyde Nanocelluloses for Dye Adsorption and Separation.

ABSTRACT: In this study, anionic dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) and cationic dialdehyde cellulose (c-DAC) nanofibrous adsorbents were prepared via a two-step reaction from bamboo pulp, using sodium periodate and Girard's reagent T as oxidizing and cationizing agents, respectively. The performance of DAC and c-DAC for selective dye adsorption and separation was evaluated by six different organic dyes (with varying charge properties) and certain binary mixtures. Both adsorbents could remove the dyes but with different capability, where DAC exhibited high adsorption efficiency against cationic dyes (e.g., the maximum adsorption capacity for Bismarck brown Y was 552.1 mg/g) and c-DAC exhibited high adsorption efficiency against anionic dyes (e.g., the maximum adsorption capacity for Congo red was 540.3 mg/g
