Abstract

Hematite was successfully synthesized from iron lathe waste using guava leaf extract as a reducing agent. To enhance adsorption capacity, hematite was composited with gelatin, a polymer containing amide and carboxylate functional groups. The hematite-gelatin composite was employed as an adsorbent for Pb solutions. This study investigated the material's structure and the adsorbent's performance, including the composite's optimum dosage and contact time. Characterization techniques included XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDX, and AAS analyses. XRD analysis revealed that the hematite-gelatin composite exhibited a high degree of crystallinity. FTIR analysis of the guava leaf extract spectrum identified phenolic vibrational absorption with strong intensity at 3447 cm-1 (O-H stretching) and a weak C-H vibrational bond at 2928 cm-1. An ester group (C=O) at 1726 cm-1 indicated the presence of tannin compounds. For the hematite-gelatin composite, a C-O absorption band was observed at 1075 cm-1, along with Fe-O absorption bands at 430 and 519 cm-1. The SEM results show that the gelatin-hematite composite has a hollow and layered surface. The EDX analysis results show that the material contains C, N, O, Pb, and Fe, which indicates that gelatin has interacted with Pb when it becomes a composite and has absorbed Pb at a level of 1.4% after adsorption. Performance evaluation of the hematite-gelatin composite demonstrated high adsorption efficiency for Pb solutions. The adsorbent exhibited a high adsorption capacity of 800 mg/g with an optimal adsorbent dosage of 15 ppm and an optimal contact time of 70 minutes. The adsorption kinetics of the hematite-gelatin composite followed a pseudo-first-order adsorption model.

Abstract

Iron lathe waste powder has the potential as a raw material in the synthesis of hematite pigments. Hematite pigments have many advantages, one of which is anti-swelling properties that can maintain the dimensions of wood. Hematite pigment synthesis was carried out using the precipitation-sonication method. The precipitation stage uses an ammonium hydroxide solution as a precipitating agent. Stages of sonication using the PEG-6000 template were performed at different times were 30, 45, and 90 minutes then calcined at 750 ° C for 3 hours. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), color reader, and scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-Ray (SEM-EDX). The result confirmed that a ferrihydrite phase obtained after the precipitation process and transform into hematite after the calcination process with the highest degree of crystallinity for 90-minute sonication. From a color reader, the brightness and redness degrees decrease with increasing time. Scanning electron microscope results illustrated that the morphology was not uniform with the particle size getting smaller with increasing sonication time. The EDX results show that hematite pigments still contain impurities such as carbon. The swelling test indicated that the highest stability in hematite-pigmented wood increased as increasing in the weight of pigment.

Abstract

In this study, the synthesis of porous beads from corn stalks was carried out. The cellulose extracted from corn stalks was converted into cellulose xanthate and combined with alginate to form porous alginate-cellulose xanthate beads by the ionic gelation method. This study attempted to use sodium chloride (NaCl) as a porogen and zinc acetate as a crosslinker. Beads were characterized to determine the porosity, swelling properties, and functional groups using Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR). The geometry of beads was analyzed by optical microscopy, and its surface morphology was analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy-Energy Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX). The results showed that corn stalks as agricultural waste material could be used to synthesize porous beads material. The swelling and porosity of beads increased with increasing concentration of NaCl. The presence of porogen has increased beads formation. The results demonstrate the crosslinks between zinc acetate and alginate were successfully characterized using FTIR. NaCl concentration of 9.5% resulted in the highest swelling properties (52.80%) and porosity (81.4%) of the beads.
