The adsorption of phenol, p-nitrophenol, the nonionic surfactant Triton X-100 (a commercial mixture of octylphenol poly ethoxylates) and the cationic surfactant dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) from aqueous solution on coal fines from a coal washing plant has been studied. Adsorbate solution concentrations range from 0-8 × 10-4 m. For the cationic and nonionic surfactants both adsorption isotherms and electrokinetic isotherms were determined. The adsorption of phenol, but not of Triton X-100 and DTAB, is found to increase with time for periods up to 300 h. For short contact times (< 30 h), the amount of Triton X-100 adsorbed is about three times higher than the amount of phenol adsorbed at the same solution concentration. The electrokinetic data show that the zeta potential of the coal is not affected by the adsorption of Triton X-100. On the other hand, adsorption of the cationic surfactant strongly influences the zeta potential. For negatively charged coal, i.e., at higher solution pH (iep of the coal used in 5.3), the adsorption of cationic surfactant leads to charge reversal at a typical free surfactant concentration often well below 10-4molal |
