Description

A POLYMER NANOCOMPOSITE ADSORBENT AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a polymer nanocomposite adsorbent that removes micropollutant pharmaceutical active ingredients from the aquatic environment.
In particular, the present invention relates to a polymer nanocomposite adsorbent containing iron oxide (FesO^ doped polyethyleneimine and the production method thereof.
State of the Art
Today, the annual drug consumption globally varies between 100,000-200,000 tons. The countries that have the largest share in this consumption are developing countries such as Brazil, Russia, China, India and South African countries. Turkey ranks 1 st among the countries in the European continent in the use of antibiotics and uses 2-3 times more antibiotics compared to these countries. It has been determined according to the 2014 World Health Organization (WHO) report that 43 out of every thousand people in Turkey use antibiotics per day. In a study published in the journal Environmental Sciences, the estimates for the total global antibiotic consumption in 2030 from the antibiotic consumption between 2000 and 2015 in 76 countries around the world are predicted as 200%. According to the Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics and Policy (CDDEP) research, it has been determined that Turkey is the country that consumes the most antibiotics in the animal food sector and reducing global antibiotic consumption is of critical importance to reduce the threat of antibiotic resistance and local/global resistance patterns should be considered.
Environmental impact analysis and the results to be obtained will have a very high unique value in the process that starts in the discharge areas of the effluent of biological wastewater treatment plant wastewaters to surface water resources and ends with the production, use, and disposal stages of drug-active micro-pollutants that are added to the ecosystem in various ways (such as groundwater, surface water resources, etc.). The most important reason for this is the trace amount of micro-polluting compounds in the aquatic environment and the limitation of the measurement and removal methods of the intermediate chemicals that are not fully mineralized. The presence of active pharmaceutical ingredients in mains waters and drinking water treatment plants coming without being treated has just noticed. There is a need for innovative studies that will solve this very daily problem concerning public health.
One of the studies carried out in the state of the art regarding this is the adsorption method. Many methods such as acetaminophen, sulfamethoxazole, paracetamol drug active ingredients, activated carbon and nanomembrane hybrid system, adsorption of activated carbon treated with NH4CI, adsorption with (HSZSM-5) brand high silica zeolite have been studied in drug active substance removal studies by adsorption method. A contribution has been made to the literature on maximum removal capacities (mg/g), adsorption kinetics (such as langmuir, freundlich, etc.) and optimum operating conditions, however the desired efficiency could not be obtained.
The problems identified in the state of the art are listed as follows:
Low removal efficiency,
- The production stages are difficult and costly,
- After completing the material treatment, it requires a separate step so as to separate the same from the water,
It is not capable of holding ng or pg drug active substances due to the weight of the material, high surface tension, and low active surface area.
As a result, due to the abovementioned disadvantages, and the insufficiency of the current solutions regarding the subject matter, a development is required to be made in the relevant technical field.
Brief Description of the Invention
The present invention relates to polymer nanocomposite adsorbent which fulfills the abovementioned requirements, eliminates all disadvantages and brings some additional advantages.
The main aim of the invention is to remove micro-polluting pharmaceutical active substances from aquatic environments such as wastewater, drinking water, surface waters (lakes, rivers, etc.), and groundwater. The aim of the invention is to develop a polymer nanocomposite material that can be easily separated from the water after completing the treatment process.
Another aim of the invention is to synthesize a modified ferrimagnetic polymer nanocomposite adsorbent whose production method is innovative and easy.
In order to fulfill the above-described aims, the inventive polymer nanocomposite adsorbent contains polyethyleneimine (PEI) polymer doped with iron oxide (FesC ).
The inventive polymer nanocomposite adsorbent production method comprises the following process steps:
Synthesis of iron (III) chloride (FeCI8), ammonium iron (III) sulfate (NH4Fe(SO4)) and ammonia (NH3) and iron oxide (FesC ),
- Formation of iron oxide (FesC ) nanoparticles by adding Tween-85 surfactant,
- Surface activation of glutaraldehyde (C5H8O2) with ethanoic acid (CH3COOH),
- Making Fe8C>4 modification with polyethyleneimine in glutaraldehyde (C5H8O2) and ethanoic acid (CH3COOH) solution.
The structural and characteristic features of the present invention will be understood clearly by the following detailed description and therefore the evaluation shall be made by taking the detailed description into consideration.
Detailed Description of the Invention
In this detailed description, the inventive polymer nanocomposite adsorbent is described only for clarifying the subject matter in a manner such that no limiting effect is created.
The present invention is a polymer nanocomposite adsorbent containing iron oxide (Fe3O4) added polyethyleneimine which removes micro-pollutant pharmaceutical active ingredients from the aquatic environment and production method thereof.
The inventive polymer nanocomposite adsorbent contains in its composition; the weight average Fe3O4:PEI ratio between 1 :2 and 1 :4. Preferably the weight average FesC PEI ratio is 1 :2. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the polymer nanocomposite adsorbent further containsTween-85 surfactant.
The inventive polymer nanocomposite adsorbent production method comprises the following process steps:
Synthesis of iron (III) chloride (FeCI3), ammonium iron (III) sulfate (NH4Fe(SO4)) and ammonia (NH3) and iron oxide (FesC ),
- Formation of iron oxide (FesC ) nanoparticles by adding Tween-85 surfactant,
- Surface activation of glutaraldehyde (C5H8O2) with ethanoic acid (CH3COOH),
- Making Fe3O4 modification with polyethyleneimine in glutaraldehyde (C5H8O2) and ethanoic acid (CH3COOH) solution.
The inventive polymer nanocomposite adsorbent production method is described in detail in the following.
Magnetic Tween-85 Surfactant Iron Oxide (Fe3O4) Nanoparticle Synthesis:
This method is based on the reduction of metal ions to metallic particles in the presence of strong reducing agent reagents (such as NH3, NaBH4, N2H4.H2O, CeHsOe etc). Reduction can be carried out in both aqueous and organic solvent-containing environments. Particles gain their final condition as a result of nucleation and subsequent growth of particles. The formed metallic powders are separated from the system by precipitation.
Strong reducing NH3 reagent was used for iron oxide synthesis. The basis of the method used in the synthesis stage comprises the chemical reduction procedure within the scope of ferromagnetic adsorbent synthesis. In the magnetic Fe3C>4 synthesis procedure, 0.2 M FeCI3 and 0.1 M NH4 Fe(SC>4) were used.
Component 1 : FeCI3; Fw=162.5 g/mol m=3.25 gr is weighed and completed up to 100 ml.
Component 2: NH4Fe(SC>4); Fw=170 g/mol m=1.7 gr is weighed and completed up to 100 ml.
Component 3: NH3 (25% Dilute solution); (Redox Reaction Strong Oxidizing Reagent) 1 part product + 3 parts ionized water Component 4: Tween-85 (surfactant that reduces surface tension with its hydrophilic head part -hydrophobic tail part, and attracts the drug active substance to the surface with ester bonds)
Production steps are explained below:
- The FeCI3, NH4Fe(SC>4) mixture is treated at 90 O for 45 minutes.
- Then NH3 is added and the brown color suddenly turns black and precipitates are formed.
- While the mixing process continues, tween-85 surfactant is added.
- After the precipitation of the formed iron occurs, the supernatant thereon is withdrawn by means of a micropipette.
- Afterwards, it is kept for 48 hours in the oven to dry, the dried material is ground.
Innovative Adsorbent Synthesis and Modification:
Component 1 : Fe3O4 (1 g) (Skeleton, magnetic material)
Component 2: PEI (2g) (Polycation adding polymer)
Component 3: Glutaraldehyde (GA) (20 ml 50% dilute GA solution) (Crosslink agent in modification)
Component 4: Ethanoic acid (0.5% wt) (Provides surface activation to prepare GA for binding.)
Production steps are explained below:
Before the PEI-Fe3O4 mixture is modified, it is exposed to sunlight for 48 hours at room temperature.
- 0.5% by weight ethanoic acid (acetic acid) is added to a 20ml solution of 50% dilute GA (10 ml) for surface activation and it is mixed in a magnetic stirrer for 4 hours.
- The PEI-Fe3O4 mixture is added to the solution and mixed in a shaker at 300 rpm in a flask for 2 hours.
- Then, the mixture is treated in an ultrasonic bath at 60 'C for 15 minutes.
In order to remove excess GA and acetic acid from the surface of the material, (the part that does not participate in the modification) is washed repeatedly with deionized water (approximately 15 times) so as to remove the surface water with a micropipette and dried in a vacuum oven at 50 'C fo r 2 days. The waste removal efficiency of the inventive product is quite high compared to its counterparts. The production method is innovative, easy, industrially applicable and cost- effective. The inventive product lost 95% of its weight after the material was modified. After completing the material treatment, it can be easily separated from the water.
