Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 6Synthesis of a Novel Cellulose-Based Adsorbent From Olive Tree Pruning Waste for Removal of Boron From Aqueous Solution(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2024) Altınbaş, B.F.; Yüksel, A.This work investigated the valorization of olive tree pruning debris as a biosorbent for the removal of environmentally hazardous boron from aqueous solution using batch adsorption. For this purpose, a novel, waste-based, boron selective biosorbent from olive tree pruning waste (N-OPW) was synthesized. Alkali pretreatment, followed by glycidyl-methacrylate (GMA) grafting and providing boron selectivity with n-methyl-d-glucamine (NMDG) steps, was applied to the biomass, respectively. N-OPW was characterized using SEM, TGA, and FT-IR analyses. N-OPW showed excellent boron biosorption capacity (21.80 mg/g) in an operation pH range between 2 and 12. The equilibrium was attained in 2 h and the Freundlich isotherm (R2 = 0.997) and pseudo-second-order kinetics (R2 = 0.99) provided the strongest match to experimental data. According to thermodynamic studies, boron adsorption was exothermic (ΔH = −34.14 kJ/mol). The reusability tests with real geothermal water showed that adsorbent had no significant decrease in boron removal capacity while desorbing >99% of the boron adsorbed for three cycles of adsorption/desorption. Results indicated that a promising, reusable, and boron selective biosorbent was successfully synthesized while utilizing olive pruning waste.

Characterization studies were performed by SEM–EDX, XPS, FTIR, and TGA. Factors affecting biosorption mechanism, i.e., sorbent dosage, pH, initial Li+ concentration and temperature, and competitive ions’ presence, were investigated the synthesized functionalized olive branches (FOB). A commercial lithium selective resin, Lewatit TP 260, was also compared with FOB in batch and column studies. The Freundlich model fits adsorption isotherms better than the Langmuir model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 6.7 mg/g at 30 °C and pH 7–8. Kinetic studies proved fast kinetics and equilibrium were attained in 6 min, while thermodynamic studies showed an exothermic (Δ Ho= - 17.52 kJ/ mol) , spontaneous reaction Δ Go< 0 at all temperatures), and increased randomness Δ So= + 24.27 J/ mol. K) at the interaction interface. Column studies revealed that although Lewatit TP 260 resin showed higher sorption capacity, its desorption efficiency (50.42%) was lower than that of FOB (99.9%), and the degree of column utilization of FOB (56.81%) was better than Lewatit TP 260 resin’s (16.0%). The findings were encouraging in the successful synthesis of a promising biosorbent from an abundant waste in Turkey for use in sustainable lithium recovery from aqueous sources.

The success of the immobilization has been checked with such characterization techniques as scanning electron microscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, and elemental analysis. Points of zero charge of the sorbents were determined with potentiometric mass titration. Batch-type equilibration studies have shown that the novel sorbent can be employed at a wide pH range resulting in quantitative sorption (>90 %) at pH 3.0-7.0 and greater than 70 % sorption at pH >8.0. These results demonstrate the advantage of immobilizing chitosan onto pumice, because, under the same conditions, pumice displays <20 % sorption toward As(V), whereas chitosan gives approximately 90%sorption only at pH 3.0. The validity of the method was verified through the analysis of ultrapure, bottled drinking, and tap water samples spiked with arsenate; the respective sorption percentages of 93.2 (±0.7), 89.0 (±1.0), and 80.9 (±1.3) were obtained by batch-type equilibration. Arsenic sorption was also examined in the presence of common interfering ions resulting in competing effects of PO3- 4 and NO- 3on As(V) adsorption.
