Evaluation of new surfactant expanded zirconium and titanium phosphates for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons extraction from waters

A newly synthesized family of materials prepared with surfactant as organic template were tested for the extraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from water, using pyrene (Pyr) and benzo[ a]pyrene (B[ a]P) as PAHs representatives. Particular attention was paid to the evaluation of the r...

Description
Summary:A newly synthesized family of materials prepared with surfactant as organic template were tested for the extraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from water, using pyrene (Pyr) and benzo[ a]pyrene (B[ a]P) as PAHs representatives. Particular attention was paid to the evaluation of the recovery factors with dichloromethane as eluent in order to estimate their potential as adsorbing solid phases for PAH remediation or analysis. Eleven lamellar MCM-50 type materials incorporating n-alkyl- ( n=12, 16, 18) trimethylammonium bromide molecules with different concentrations and chain lengths and two hexagonal MCM-41 type materials incorporating octadecyl-trimethyl ammonium bromide were tested. Best results were obtained by preparing lamellar MCM-50 zirconium and titanium phosphates in the presence of n-dodecyl-trimethylammonium at a relative molar concentration (surfactant/phosphate) of 1.
