Tóm tắt

AbstractSurface excess isotherms were determined for the adsorption of 1,4-dioxan (DIOX), tetrahydropyran (THP) and tetrahydrofuran (THF) from binary solution with methanol (MeOH) on Al3+- and Cr3+-exchanged, montmorillonite containing different amounts of pre-adsorbed water. The isotherm type is dominated by the binary mixture whereas the amplitude, which follows the sequence DIOX > THP > THF, is further influenced by the exchange cation, Al3+ > Cr3+, and the water content of the clay. The sorption of DIOX and THP from MeOH exhibit a type IV isotherm in the Schay-Nagy classification on both cation-exchanged forms, whilst that of THF from MeOH is of type I and THF is the preferred adsorbate. The azeotropic point for the type IV isotherms is close to a 1:1 mole ratio for the samples dried at 120°C but when the samples are rehydrated at 12% r.h. following thermal pretreatment at 120°C the azeotropic point shifts in favour of the cyclic ethers DIOX and THP, making them the preferred component over a substantial portion of the composition range.
