Radiation processings of grafting and crosslinking can synthesis adsorbent having high performances. Graft adsorbent can be synthesized by using the conventional polymer like polyethylene having variety shapes such as membrane, cloth, and fiber. Especially, the obtained fibrous adsorbent has 100 times higher rate of adsorption than that of commercialized resin. Novel fibrous adsorption for arsenic was synthesized by direct grafting of phosphoric monomer and following zirconium-loading. Fibrous adsorbents of amidoxime and iminodiacetate were applied to the removal of cadmium from the scallop waste. Furthermore, the amidoxime adsorbent is useful to recover rare metal such as uranium and vanadium in seawater. Crosslinked natural polymers like chitin-chitosan in the paste-like state are applicable for the metal adsorbent. This adsorbent can be biodegraded after usage.

Fibrous adsorbents having chelate agent such as amidoxime (AN/MAA-ad), iminodiacetic acid (IDA-ad), and phosphoric acid (HMPA-ad) were prepared by radiation-induced graft polymerization. AN/MAA-ad was synthesized by co-grafting of acrylonitrile and methacrylic acid. Then the introduced functional group of CN was converted to the amidoxime with chemical treatment. Grafting of glycidyl methacrylate and chemically introducing the IDA group synthesized IDA-ad. HMPA-ad was directly synthesized by grafting of phosphoric acid monomer. The densities of the chelate agency were 3.5 mol/kg for AN/MAA-ad, 2.0 mol/kg for IDA-ad and 2.0 mol/kg for HMPA-ad after the grafting time of 2, 1.5 and 8 hours, respectively. HMPA-ad had 200 times higher distribution coefficient for uranium than that of a commercial adsorbent (Diaion-PK216) at pH 0.5. The distribution coefficient for AN/MAA-ad became 500 times higher than that of Diaion-CR11 more than pH 8. These chelate adsorbents are promising materials for removal of uranium from acid or alkali treated waste sludge contaminated uranium.

Times Cited Count:28 Percentile:67.22(Engineering, Chemical)Fibrous iminodiacetic acid cheating cation exchangers were derived from chloromethylstyrene radiation-grafted polyethylene-coated polypropylene filamentary fiber and its nonwoven cloth. Ligand contents and acid capacities of the resulting cation exchangers were ca. 2 mmol/g and ca. 4 mmol/g for the filamentary fiber and for the non-woven cloth, respectively. The selectivity sequence of nonwoven cloth shape for dialect metal ions is Mg(II) Ca(II) Co(II) Zn(II) Cd(II) Ni(II) Pb(II) Cu(II). Capacities in mmol/g at pH 5 were Ca(II) 0.91, Mg(II) 0.98, Cd(II) 1.5, Ni(II) 1.5, Pb(II) 1.6, Cu(II) 1.8. Column mode for filamentary fiber shape revealed that breakthrough capacities for Cu(II) (ca. 1 mmol/g) were not dependent on flow rates up to 200 300 h in space velocity.

Chloromethylstyrene-grafted polyethylene-coated polypropylene fiber (0.9 denier) was functionalized by reaction with diethyl iminodiacetate and hydrolysis of the ester introduced. An acid capacity of the resulting chelating fiber (FIDA-f) was 4.3 meq/g. Although a maximum permissible flow rate of feeds was depressed with an increase in the conditioning pH of the FIDA-f column, breakthrough profiles of Pb(II) were independent of the flow rate of feeds up to 800/h in space velocity (SV). The usefulness of FIDA-f was demonstrated by quantitative removal of Pb(II) from 600 bed volumes of a Pb(II)-spiked river water (5 ppm) at a flow rate of SV 400/h.
