Özet
This work investigated the valorization of olive tree pruning waste 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 pristine cellulose and olive tree pruning waste (N-OPW) was synthesized. After confirming the proposed synthesis route with pristine cellulose, an alkali pretreatment, followed by glycidyl-methacrylate (GMA) grafting and providing boron selectivity with n-methyl-d-glucamine (NMDG) steps were 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 2-12. The equilibrium was attained in two hours 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.
