Modification of nanosized natural montmorillonite for ultrasound-enhanced adsorption of Acid Red 17

Abstract: This work aims to modify montmorillonite (MMT) via dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTMA) and investigate its ability in ultrasound (US) assisted decolorization of a polluted solution. BET surface area of MMT was increased from 19.76 to 42.57 m(2)/g and basal spacing of MMT structural layers was increased from 1.13 to 1.69 nm by DTMA modification. The application of DTMA-modified MMT (DTMA-MMT) and US for the decolorization of Acid Red 17 (AR17) showed that US could improve the ability of DTMA-MMT on decolori… Show more

“…In general, ultrasonic irradiation accelerate the rate of chemical reactions and mass transfer by the production of acoustic cavitation which includes the formation, growth, and collapsing of bubbles [20]. However, ultrasound changes the adsorption equilibrium by decreasing the concentration of dyes, which is probably owing to thermal effects in the vicinity of the adsorbent particles [21].…”

“…However, adsorption is an effective, single, easy and cost‐effective option for treatment of wastewater effluent and is extensively applied for removal of contaminants from aqueous environments, while recently ultrasound irradiation was applied by our groups to accelerate the chemical process due to the phenomenon of acoustic cavitation . The formation, growth and collapse of bubbles as well as microscopic turbulence within interfacial films surrounding adsorbent and adsorbate by the propagation of a pressure ultrasound wave increases the mass transfer rate .…”
