The objective of the present study was the evaluation of differently treated bovine bones for Co(2+) removal from aqueous media. Powdered bones (B), as well as samples prepared by H(2)O(2) oxidation (BH(2)O(2)) and annealing at 400-1000 degrees C (B400-B1000), were tested as sorbent materials. A combination of XRD, FTIR spectroscopies, DTA/TGA analyses, specific surface area (S(p)) and point of zero charge (pH(PZC)) measurements was utilized for physicochemical characterization of sorbents. Sorption of Co(2+) was studied in batch conditions as a function of pH, contact time and Co(2+) concentration. Initial pH values in the range 4-8 were found optimal for sorption experiments. Equilibrium time of 24h was required in all investigated systems. The maximum sorption capacities differ significantly from 0.078 to 0.495mmol/g, whereas the affinity towards Co(2+) decreased in the order: B400>BH(2)O(2)>B600>B>B800>B1000. The pseudo-second-order model and Langmuir theoretical equation were used for fitting the kinetic and equilibrium data, respectively. Ion-exchange with Ca(2+) and specific cation sorption were identified as main removal mechanisms. The amounts of Co(2+) desorbed from loaded bone sorbents increased with the decrease of pH as well as with the increase of Ca(2+) concentration. Heating at 400 degrees C was found to be an optimal treatment for the production of the Co(2+) removal agent.

The effects of oxidation using HNO(3) on the properties of the carbonized wheat and barley straw were investigated by measuring different properties such as specific surface area, PZC, total surface acidic groups as well as FTIR and TG-DTA. A small decrease in the specific surface area due to pore blockage was observed after oxidation. After oxidation, the acidity was increased considerably and the point of zero charge shifted from approximately pH 9 to pH 2 in both types of carbon. By the oxidation of the carbon with nitric acid, carboxylic groups were produced as shown by absorption peaks at 1750 cm(-1) in the FTIR spectra. Boehm titration results showed that the number of carboxyl groups increased by approximately 11-fold after oxidation. The oxidized carbon samples were compared with the unoxidized original carbon samples for Cr(III) adsorption. It was observed that the oxidized carbons exhibit high adsorption efficiencies for Cr(III) ions compared to the original carbonized straws and this can be correlated to the decrease in PZC which is mainly due to the increase in carboxylic functional groups in the oxidized carbonized straws and these are responsible for their cation ion exchange phenomenon.

Several semi interpenetrating network (SIPN) type hydrogels were synthesized by in-situ free radical crosslink copolymerization of acrylamide and crosslinker N,N'-methylene bisacrylamide (MBA) in aqueous solution of sodium alginate (SA).These SIPN hydrogels were characterized by FTIR, NMR SEM, DTA-TGA, XRD, PZC and also by swelling characteristics and network parameters. Adsorption (loading) and release of acetaminophen drug were studied with these hydrogels. Solution pH, crosslinker concentration and monomer to SA weight ratio of the hydrogels were found to have a strong effect on adsorption and in vitro release profile of the drug from the gel matrix.
