Batch Reactor vs. Microreactor System for Efficient AuNP Deposition on Activated Carbon Fibers. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14216598. [PMID: 34772120 PMCID: PMC8585125 DOI: 10.3390/ma14216598] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2021] [Revised: 10/18/2021] [Accepted: 10/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
The process of noble metals ions recovery and the removal small fraction of nanoparticles from waste solution is an urgent topic not only from the economic but also ecology point of view. In this paper, the use of activated carbon fibers (ACF) as a “trap” for gold nanoparticles obtained by a chemical reduction method is described. The synthesized nanoparticles were stabilized either electrostatically or electrosterically and then deposited on carbon fibers or activated carbon fibers. Moreover, the deposition of metal on fibers was carried out in a batch reactor and a microreactor system. It is shown, that process carried out in the microreactor system is more efficient (95%) as compared to the batch reactor and allows for effective gold nanoparticles removal from the solution. Moreover, for similar conditions, the adsorption time of the AuNPs on ACF is shortened from 11 days for the process carried out in the batch reactor to 2.5 min in the microreactor system.

Abstract
In the paper, the mechanism of the process of the Rh(III) ions adsorption on activated carbon ORGANOSORB 10—AA was investigated. It was shown, that the process is reversible, i.e., stripping of Rh(III) ions from activated carbon to the solution is also possible. This opens the possibility of industrial recovery of Rh (III) ions from highly dilute aqueous solutions. The activation energies for the forward and backward reaction were determined These are equal to c.a. 7 and 0 kJ/mol. respectively. Unfortunately, the efficiency of this process was low. Obtained maximum load of Rh(III) was equal to 1.13 mg per 1 g of activated carbon.

Abstract
Kinetic studies on the recovery of platinum(iv) chloride complex ions from acidic solutions using commercially available activated carbon (AC) were carried out using spectrophotometric methods. The overall process obeyed first-order reaction model. The overall process is complex and consists of two steps: the first one is related to the reversible adsorption–desorption of PtIV complex and the second one is related to the reduction of PtIV complex on the AC surface. The first step of the overall process was limited by diffusion, whereas the second step ran under kinetic control. The activation energies of the individual reactions in both steps were determined and corresponded to 18.27, 7.85, and 31.2 kJ mol–1 for the adsorption, desorption, and reduction reactions, respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results confirmed that the chemical reaction was related to the reduction of PtIV to PtII on the AC surface. The results show that the investigated AC can be applied for platinum recovery from highly diluted aqueous systems.
