Abstract

Mesoporous silica material has been synthesized using tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) as a source of silica, oleic acid as a template, and 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APMS) as co-structure directing agents (CSDA). The synthesis of silica material was made with a variation in the mole ratio of TEOS: Oleic acid with a ratio of 1: 0.2; 1: 0.3; 1: 0.5; 1: 0.6; 1: 0.7; 1: 0.9, and 1: 1. A mixture between TEOS and APMS was added to a mixture of oleic acid, HCl 0.1N and demineralized water then stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. Then aging, the mix at 80oC for 48 hours until solids are formed. Product separation was used in the centrifugation method. The resulting solid was dried at 50oC, and to remove the template, calcined at 550oC for 6 hours. The product of XRD analysis has a wider diffraction peak that indicates an amorphous material. The FT-IR spectrum shows the Si-OH and Si-O-Si groups which area characteristic of silica material. The product of SEM analysis offers the presence of sheets and plates of particle forms with different sizes. Adsorption desorption isotherm (BET) shows an isotherm type IV curve, and dominant pore sizes are 1.945 and 4.588 nm.

Abstract

Conducted research on the utilization of mesoporous silica derived from rice husks for copper reduction using adsorption methods. This work aims to evaluate the efficacy of copper adsorption with mesoporous silica derived from rice husk, calcined at a temperature of 900 °C. Mesoporous silica possesses a pore diameter ranging from 5 to 17 nm. The approach employed to decrease copper is the adsorption method. Identifying the optimal settings entails an adsorbent mass of approximately 0.2 g, 0.4 g, 0.6 g, 0.8 g, and 1.0 g an adsorbate concentration of 10 mg/l, and a contact duration of 60 minutes. The adsorption technique involves contacting mesoporous silica with a copper solution in an Erlenmeyer flask, followed by stirring with a magnetic stirrer utilizing varying masses of mesoporous silica. The results indicated that a substantial adsorption occurs with the utilization of 1.6 g of mesoporous silica, achieving a copper adsorption percentage of 99.73%. The quantity of adsorbed copper ions is determined by the difference in metal concentration before and after adsorption, evaluated using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS).
