Veröffentlichung DENANA - Designkriterien für nachhaltige Nanomaterialien(2018) Dippon-Deissler, Urs; Klitzke, Sondra; Kussatz, Carola; Lukas, Marcus; Schneider, Philipp; Völker, Doris; Deutschland. UmweltbundesamtVeröffentlichung Biogenic amorphous ferric hydroxide as adsorbent for vanadium removal in drinking water production(2023) Dippon-Deissler, Urs; Mahringer, Daniel; Ruhl, Aki Sebastian; Zerelli, Sami SofieneVanadium as toxic heavy metal is a drinking water relevant contaminant. However, there is a lack in treatment processes to meet regulatory requirements (e.g. 4 g l-1 in Germany). This study introduces a novel treatment process - the vanadium adsorption onto biogenic amorphous ferric hydroxide (AFH). Basic mechanisms of adsorption onto AFH are described and compared to granular ferric hydroxide (GFH). Adsorption kinetics and pH dependent isotherms in drinking and ultrapure water, parametrization via the empirical Freundlich and Langmuir models, and bond type and strength assessments via sequential extraction are presented. AFH was generated in pilot waterworks in which Fe(II) and oxygen were dosed and subsequently Fe(II) microbiologically oxidized and precipitated in the filter bed. The backwash-water was collected and used for adsorption experiments. Sequential extraction was executed with vanadium loaded AFH produced in the pilot plant. AFH is identified as alternative adsorbent to GFH with similar affinity and capacity. The isotherms cover a concentration range from 10 g l-1 to 4 mg l-1 and the Freundlich model showed a better fit with the experimental data than the Langmuir model. A bidentate mononuclear inner sphere complex is assumed for vanadium adsorption onto AFH, while a bidentate binuclear inner sphere complex is expected for GFH. Sequential extraction showed a strong bond between AFH and vanadium, which was only mobilized by the last extraction step the dissolution of iron particles. A treatment process - adsorption onto biogenic AFH - is suitable for effective vanadium removal and should be further investigated for technical implementation. © 2023 The Author(s).Veröffentlichung Colloidal stabilization of CeO2 nanomaterials with polyacrylic acid, polyvinyl alcohol or natural organic matter(2018) Dippon-Deissler, Urs; Pabst, Silke; Klitzke, SondraEngineered nanomaterials (ENM) such as nano-sized cerium dioxide (CeO2) are increasingly applied. Meanwhile, concerns on their environmental fate are rising. Understanding the fate of ENM within and between environmental compartments such as surface water and groundwater is crucial for the protection of drinking water resources. Therefore, the colloidal stability of CeO2 ENM (2 mg L-1) was assessed with various surface coatings featuring different physico-chemical properties such as weakly anionic polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), strongly anionic polyacrylic acid (PAA) or complex natural organic matter (NOM) at various water compositions in batch experiments (pH 2 - 12, ionic strength 0-5 mM KCl or CaCl2). While uncoated CeO2 ENM aggregate in the range of pH 4-8 in 1 mM KCl solution, the results show that PAA, PVA and NOM surface coatings stabilize CeO2-ENM at neutral and alkaline pH in 1 mM KCl solution. Stabilization by PAA and NOM is associated with strongly negative zeta potentials below -20 mV, suggesting electrostatic repulsion as stabilization mechanism. No aggregation was detected up to 5 mM KCl for PAA- and NOM-coated CeO2 ENM. In contrast, CaCl2 induced aggregation at >2.2 mM CaCl2 for PAA and NOM-coated CeO2 ENM respectively. PVA-coated ENM showed zeta potentials of -15 mV to -5 mV in the presence of 0-5 mM ionic strength, suggesting steric effects as stabilization mechanism. The hydrodynamic diameter of PVA-coated ENM was larger compared to PAA and NOM at low ionic strength, but the size did not increase with ionic strength of the suspensions. The effect of ionic strength and counter ion valency (pH 7) on the colloidal stability of ENM depends on the prevailing stabilization mechanism of the organic coating. NOM can be similarly effective in colloidal stabilization of CeO2-ENM as PAA. Our results suggest natural Ca-rich waters will lead to ENM agglomeration even of coated CeO2-ENM. © 2018 The Authors.

The transport of NP is mainly controlled by (i) their surface properties, (ii) water chemistry, and (iii) surface properties of the stationary phase. Therefore, functionalization of NP surfaces by organic coatings may change their fate in the environment. In laboratory columns, we compared the mobility of CeO2 NP coated by the synthetic polymer polyacrylic acid (PAA) with CeO2 NP coated by natural organic matter (NOM) and humic acid (HA), respectively. The effect of ionic strength on transport in sand columns was investigated using deionized (DI) water and natural surface water with 2.2 mM Ca2+ (soft) and 4.5 mM Ca2+ (hard), respectively. Furthermore, the relevance of these findings was validated in a near-natural bank filtration experiment using HA-CeO2 NP. PAA-CeO2 NP were mobile under all tested water conditions, showing a breakthrough of 60% irrespective of the Ca2+ concentration. In contrast, NOM-CeO2 NP showed a lower mobility with a breakthrough of 27% in DI and < 10% in soft surface water. In hard surface water, NOM-CeO2 NP were completely retained in the first 2 cm of the column. The transport of HA-CeO2 NP in laboratory columns in soft surface water was lower compared to NOM-CeO2 NP with a strong accumulation of CeO2 NP in the first few centimeters of the column. Natural coatings were generally less stabilizing and more susceptible to increasing Ca2+ concentrations than the synthetic coating. The outdoor column experiment confirmed the low mobility of HA-CeO2 NP under more complex environmental conditions. From our experiments, we conclude that the synthetic polymer is more efficient in facilitating NP transport than natural coatings and hence, CeO2 NP mobility may vary significantly depending on the surface coating. © The Author(s) 2019Veröffentlichung The fate of selenium in a pilot plant for biological iron and manganese removal(2023) Dippon-Deissler, Urs; Mahringer, Daniel; Ruhl, Aki Sebastian; Steuer, AndreaSelenium (Se) is essential to human health, yet harmful in high doses. Of the water-soluble Se redox species, Se(IV) readily adsorbs onto iron and aluminium oxides. Se(VI), the dominant form in oxygenated waters, is more mobile and less readily adsorbed. In this study, the removal of Se(VI) by reduction with Fe(II) to Se(IV) and subsequent adsorption onto iron hydroxides is investigated in a pilot plant for biological iron and manganese removal from groundwater to investigate an economical approach for Se removal during drinking water production. While Se(IV) is removed by up to 90%, Se(VI) shows no removal over 48 h. In batch-shaking tests, the adsorption of Se(IV) and Se(VI) onto iron hydroxides with and without addition of Fe(II) or dithionite as reducing agents was studied. Se(IV) was removed to a greater extent by adsorption than Se(VI) (7% and 2.6%, respectively, at a starting concentration of 0.1 mg/L) and the addition of reducing agents resulted in no significantly higher removal of Se(VI). Reducing Se(VI) with Fe(II) or dithionite and consequent adsorption onto iron hydroxides can therefore be excluded as viable removal mechanism for Se(VI). © 2023 by the authorsVeröffentlichung Pilot scale hexavalent chromium removal with reduction, coagulation, filtration and biological iron oxidation(2020) Dippon-Deissler, Urs; Mahringer, Daniel; Ruhl, Aki Sebastian; Zerelli, Sami SofieneCr(VI) is identified as highly toxic, therefore a far-reaching limitation of total chromium or Cr(VI) in drinking water was proposed by the Germany Environment Agency. There is a lack in efficient treatment processes to reach Cr(VI) concentrations below 1 (my)g L-1. In this study, the combination of chemical reduction, coagulation and filtration (RCF) was further developed by adding biological iron removal as filtration step (RCbF). The aim of this enhancement was to reach lower effluent concentrations and a higher robustness regarding process parameters. The effectiveness of Cr(VI) removal was investigated using two-stage pilot-scale waterworks. RCbF reaches Cr(VI) effluent concentrations below 0.5 (my)g L-1 despite variations of pH, filtration velocity, or Cr(VI) influent concentrations. Fe(II) dosage and hence molar excess of Fe(II) over Cr(VI) was identified as the key parameter for Cr(VI) removal. Low oxygen dosage for biological iron removal improved the efficiency of RCbF compared to RCF. The co-precipitation of Cr(III) and Fe(III) as solid solution in the supernatant of the filter bed was promoted by low oxygen concentrations making Cr(VI) the preferred oxidant. RCbF was shown to be a suitable treatment process for reaching a low limit value for total chromium or Cr(VI) concerning technical feasibility. © 2020 The Authors.
