Selective Separation of Cobalt Using a New Co(II)-Imprinted Polymer/Cryogel System
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate selective separation and
preconcentration of Co(II) ions in aqueous solutions by ion imprinted
technique. For this purpose, Co(II)-methacryloylhistidine((MAH)2-Co(II))
complex monomer has been synthesized and polymerized with presence of
2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) followed by flushed out of bonded Co(II)
ions from polymer with 5.0 mol*L-1 HNO3. Thus, specific
cavities for re-binding of target ions (Co(II)) have been created onto
p-HEMA-MAH cryogel column. Prepared metal complex and Co-imprinted
polymer/cryogel system have been characterized by FTIR and SEM. The effect of
various parameters such as pH, initial concentration, flow rate, ionic strength
have been investigated to determine optimal adsorption conditions. The maximum
amount of adsorbed Co(II) has found as 106.0 mg*g-1 at pH 8.0 with
flow rate of 1 mL*min-1. For selectivity experiments, binding
studies were carried out presence of Cu(II) and Ni(II). The k (selectivity
coefficient) values have found as 8.9 and 3.8 for Co(II)/Cu(II) and
Co(II)/Ni(II) binary mixture, respectively. The reuse of column also has been
investigated and there was no significant decrease at adsorption capacity even
in consecutive eleven experiments.
