Sorption and desorption of perchlorate on surfactant-modified zeolite
Batch sorption experiments were conducted to evaluate the performance of surfactantmodified zeolite (SMZ) as an inexpensive sorbent material for perchlorate (ClO4 -) removal from contaminated waters. The 14-40 mesh SMZ had a ClO4 - sorption capacity of 98 mmol kg-1 (roughly 1 ClO4 - per anion exchange site), better than strong base anion exchange resins (~ 1 ClO4 - per 5 anion exchange sites) when the sorption capacity was normalized to anion exchange capacity. Batch desorption experiments were also conducted to determine the optimum solution for regenerating spent SMZ. A 1.5-M NO3 - solution was found to be most effective in exchanging sorbed ClO4 - from SMZ, i.e., >90% ClO4 - desorbed after ten consecutive extractions, each with a solution volume 5 times the volume of SMZ. The regenerated SMZ still had a ClO4 - sorption capacity of >70 mmol kg-1.
