Novelty and actuality and scientific meaningfulness of the results | - In this study, a novel CeO2-Mn2O3 mixed oxide adsorbent with high sorption capacity for both arsenic and ammonium was prepared and used to arsenic and ammonium removed from water.
- Nanosized perovskites LaMnO3, NdMnO3, PrMnO3 and nanocomposite CeO2-Mn2O3 have been synthesized at low temperature by the combustion of gel prepared from polyvinyl alcol (PVA) and metal nitrates.
- The specific surface area of LaMnO3, PrMnO3, NdMnO3 and CeO2-Mn2O3 mixed oxides was measured to be 27,6; 20,5; 21,5; and 65,3 m2/g using the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method. The prepared LaMnO3, PrMnO3, NdMnO3 and CeO2-Mn2O3 adsorbents were composed of nanoparticles in the sized: 24,5; 32,19; 27,35 and 24,59 nm and had high sorption capacity up to 87,51; 66,15; 73,34 and 154,54 mg/g for ammonium respectively.
- 5 equipments were prepared and used for supplying safe water according to the Vietnam Standard for drinking water.
