Abstract
The process of
purification of water contaminated with oil and oil products (kerosene) by the
sorption method is considered. As a sorbent, a natural mineral bentonite and a
mixture of bentonite and agricultural waste of hazelnut shells were used in a
mass ratio of 1:1. Bentonite was activated with 5 and 10% sulfuric acid,
thermally treated at 300, 350, 400, and 4500 degrees (C), and a
mixture of bentonite with hazelnut shells were used as a sorbent. The cleaning
effect of both sorbents was analyzed separately, comparisons were made, and the
effects of acid concentration and temperature on the sorption capacity of the
sorbent were studied. It was determined that, 99.5% of oil and 98.8% of
kerosene can be removed from water contaminated with petroleum and oil products
using an adsorbent from a mixture of bentonite and hazelnut shells, activated
with 10% sulfuric acid and thermally treated at 3500 C. The process
is economically and environmentally preferable.
