Abstract

Background and objectives: Because of some unique features such as high thermal stability, low heat transfer coefficient, desirable resistance to wear and corrosion, and catalytic activity, composites and ceramic porous substrates can be used under more difficult conditions compared to metals, glass, and porous polymers. Due to these features, ceramics have found a broad spectrum of industrial applications including the production of industrial filters. This article deals with production and evaluation of the efficiency of ceramic filters that contain pyrolyzed particles of WOOD FLOUR with the purpose of removing the heavy metal CADMIUM from aqueous environments. Separate utilization of ceramic materials and lignocellulosic materials in removal of heavy metals, given the positive environmental features of these materials, has become the focus of attention of researchers for several years. Use of these materials in combination with each other in the form of composite filters can increase their efficiency and length of useful life and expand the range of their applications. This article introduces a simple and cost-effective method for manufacturing ceramic composite filters that contain a discontinuous carbon phase and were very capable in removing the heavy metal CADMIUM from aqueous environments because they utilize the synergistic effect of an organic and a mineral phase.Materials and methods: 40 and 80 mesh Paulownia WOOD FLOUR was prepared as the source for the carbonized lignocellulosic filler phase and was mixed with ceramic powder obtained from a ceramic manufacturing factory with the weight ratios of 5, 10, and 15% (dry weight basis). Water was added to the mixture to prepare ceramic grout, which was cast in wooden molds designed beforehand. After several days, the air-dried ceramic samples were removed from the molds and transferred to an induction furnace for pyro processing. The ceramic substrates were pyro processed at 1100˚C for 50 minutes for partial sintering. During the pyro processing process, particles of WOOD FLOUR added inside the ceramic matrix substrate were carbonized under the influence of increased temperature and insufficient oxygen supply. A field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and DENSITY determination were used to evaluate the distribution of the organic phase and the porosity of the structure of the CARBON-CERAMIC COMPOSITE that was made. Furthermore, the effects of the parameters of pH, contact time, temperature, CADMIUM concentration, and the adsorbent dose on the degree of CADMIUM adsorption by the manufactured composite were studied.Results: Adding WOOD FLOUR to the ceramic substrate made it porous and decreased its DENSITY. Results showed the effects of the weight ratio and of the size of WOOD FLOUR particles on the DENSITY of the manufactured CARBON-CERAMIC COMPOSITE were significant. Stereomicroscopic and EF-SEM micrographs indicated the presence and uniform distribution of the carbon phase inside the ceramic substrate of the manufactured composite. Moreover, results showed the maximum CADMIUM removal from the aqueous solution happened at pH 6, CADMIUM concentration of 10 mg/l, adsorbent dose of 0.3 g/l, temperature of 35˚C, and contact time of 60 minutes.Conclusions: As a general conclusion, we can say that, considering the low cost of the raw materials and the easy manufacturing process and the high REMOVAL EFFICIENCY, the manufactured CARBON-CERAMIC COMPOSITE can be recommended as an efficient filter for removing the heavy metal CADMIUM from aqueous solutions.
