PG - 138472 LID - S0045-6535(23)00739-7 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.138472 [doi] AB - In this research, in-situ modified biosynthetic crystals with lanthanum (BC-La) were synthesized based on anaerobic microbially induced calcium precipitation (MICP) and investigated its capacity for groundwater defluoridation under various operational conditions. The kinetic and thermodynamic models were simulated to explore the effect of the material on the removal of fluoride ion (F(-)) under various parameters (pH, initial concentration of F(-), and temperature). BC-La had the maximum F(-) adsorption capacity of 10.92 mg g(-1) and 96.66% removal efficiency. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model were the best kinetic and isotherm models for F(-) removal from BC-La, which indicated that F(-) were mainly spontaneously removed through chemisorption and adsorption processes. The specific surface area was 54.26 m(2) g(-1) and the average pore size was 9.0670 nm. BC-La mainly contained LaCO(3)OH, LaPO(4), CaCO(3), Ca(5) (PO(4))(3)OH, and F(-) was mainly removed through ion exchange with the material surface. Moreover, OH(-), PO(4)(3-), and CO(3)(2-) significantly influenced the F(-) removal. This work suggested a novel method for in-situ modification of anaerobic biosynthetic crystals, which improved the defluoridation effect of traditional biosynthetic crystals, increased the stability of the BC-La and allowed to remove F(-) from groundwater consistently.
