The adsorption of 4-nitrophenol using commercially available Amberlite (R) IRA-900 modified with metal phthalocyanines (MPc) was investigated. The metallophthalocyanines immobilised onto the surface of Amberlite (R) MA-900 include Fe (FePcS4), CO (COPcS4) and Ni (NiPcS4) tetrasulphophthalocyanines, and differently sulphonated phthalocyanine mixtures of Fe (FePcSmix), Co (CoPcSmix) and Ni (NiPcSmix). Adsorption rates were fastest for the modified adsorbents at a loading of 1 x 10(-1) g MPc/g Amberlite, at pH 9. The highest amount of 4-NP removal was obtained on FePcSmix. modified Amberlite (R) IRA-900 with Q(t) = 42.9 mmol g(-1) and adsorption efficiency of 86%. The recovery efficiency of 4-NP within 150 min was 76%. Using the Langmuir-Hinshelwood kinetic model, the complexes showed an order of 4-nitrophenol adsorption to be as follows: CoPcSmix > NiPcS4 > NiPcSmix > FePcS4 > FePcSmix > COPcS4. The MPc modified Amberlite (R) IRA-900 was used repeatedly, following removal of 4-NP by nitric acid, without any significant loss of activity. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
