ADSORPTION OF COBALT(II) ION BY TITANIUM-BASED OXIDES IN HIGH TEMPERATURE WATER
Titanium-based adsorbents such as TiO2 and Fe-Ti-O were prepared by hydrolysis of Ti(OC3H7)4 and alkalinizing an equimolar mixed solution of TiC14 and FeCl2 followed by heat treatment of their hydroxides, respectively. The prepared Fe-Ti-O adsorbent was found to be stable nonstoichiometric ferrous and ferric titanium oxides with pseudobrookite and rutile structures. The Co2+ adsorption characteristics of the adsorbent in high temperature water were investigated in the autoclave. Co2+ adsorption capacity of the Fe-Ti-O adsorbent was determined to be larger than that of TiO2 at high temperatures. The enthalpy changes of 34 and 49 kJ·mol-1 due to the adsorption of Co2+ on the TiO2 and Fe-Ti-O adsorbents indicate that the adsorption is endothermic in the experimental temperature range (15-280℃). From this preliminary study, titanium-based oxides are shown to have good potential applicability far reactor water purification as high temperature adsorption media.
