Abstract:

The carbon/pottery composite for removing fluoride is prepared from bone dust, bamboo power, clay by carbonization and activation process. Research on the effect of material proportion, heating rate, activation temperature and holding time for defluoridation capacity and the efficiency of defluoridation of carbon/pottery adsorption composite, and the characteristics of carbon/pottery composite have been studied by SEM and FTIR. It is found that, with heating rate, activation temperature and holding time increasing, defluoridation capacity and the efficiency of defluoridation of carbon/pottery adsorption composite tend to increase at first and then reduce. Meanwhile, physical adsorption and chemical adsorption occur when the carbon/pottery composite is used for removing fluoride. Therefore, a kind of synergistic effect appears, which improves the effect of carbon/pottery composite for removing fluoride. Under the optimized conditions, the defluoridation capacity of carbon/pottery adsorption composite is 2.214 mg ·g-1, and the efficiency of defluoridation is 88.56%.

Key words: carbon/pottery composite, defluoridation, adsorption, synergistic effect
