Abstract

The growing threat of antibiotic-resistant bacteria to public health has raised interest in the proper treatment of discharged pharmaceutical wastewater before entering surface waters. In this study, adsorption was highlighted as a low cost and eff ective pathway to remove amoxicillin and ampicillin from aqueous solutions. Montmorillonite (Na-MMT) and myristyltrimethylammonium (MTA)-intercalated montmorillonite (O-MMT) were employed as the adsorbing solids. Static adsorption experiments were performed at three temperatures (303.15 K, 313.15 K and 323.15 K) for single antibiotic systems. The adsorption isotherm curves at all temperatures exhibited an L2-type isotherm. The Freundlich and Langmuir models were applied to analyze single adsorption isotherm data. The maximum sorption capacity of 0.124–0.133 mmol g1 for amoxicillin and 0.143–0.157 mmol g1 for ampicillin was estimated for O-MMT sorbent from Langmuir fitting. A modified extended-Langmuir model with the inclusion of surface coverage (q) was proposed for analysis of binary adsorption isotherm data. The fitness of the modified extended-Langmuir model was superior to the original model. Batch adsorption tests on real pharmaceutical wastewater demonstrated the feasibility of the O-MMT sorbent for practical applications.
