DETERMINATION OF PARAMETERS AFFECTING KINETIC AND THERMODYNAMIC VALUES FOR LEAD REMOVAL USING WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT SEWAGE SLUDGE ASH

In this study, treatment of lead containing wastewater using sewage sludge ash obtained from the incineration unit in the domestic wastewater treatment plant in Gaziantep province in Turkey was investigated. The main purpose of the study is to determine the potential of using the treatment sludge ash, which comes out as waste in the treatment plant, in the treatment of wastewater of another industry. As a result of this study, the most suitable adsorption conditions were determined and focused on the kinetics of adsorption. In the experiments, the lead adsorption capacity of sewage sludge ash was determined as 122 mg g-1 at 0.5 g L-1 adsorbent concentration in wastewater containing 100 mg L-1 Pb2+under optimum conditions. As a result of the research, it was determined that the adsorption reaction proceeds according to the pseudo second degree reaction and is suitable for the Langmuir isotherm. As thermodynamic constants, & UDelta;H & DEG; = 7.407 kJ mol-1 and & UDelta;S & DEG; = 33.25 J mol-1 were determined. As a result of this, it was determined that the adsorption reaction was endothermic, spontaneous and random, and adsorption was physical adsorption. The results show that sewage sludge ash can be used in the treatment of water containing high concentrations of Pb2+.
