Popis: | The adsorption performances on graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) surface were investigated for organic dye pollutants by both experimental and calculation methods. For experimental investigation, adsorption thermodynamics and kinetics results were in-situ obtained and evaluated. With Δ G MB + = − 31.78 Δ G MO − = − 17.38 kJ mol − 1 by Langmuir modeling, g-C3N4 showed superior adsorption spontaneity of MB+ >MO-. With linear and exponential modeling, g-C3N4 showed only adsorption process for MB+ but both diffusion and adsorption processes for MO-. For simulation insight, all MB+ molecules but only parts of MO- molecules were inclined to orient in parallel position at g-C3N4 surface after optimization during low concentration. And both MB+ and MO- molecules were inclined to orient in perpendicular position at g-C3N4 surface after optimization during high concentration. Combined with experimental and calculation results, a molecular-orientation and force-dominance mechanism adsorption model are proposed to explain the surface interaction processes between dyes and g-C3N4. Electrostatic interaction and π-π stacking interaction were revealed to dominate for MB+ adsorption, and π-π stacking interaction and van der Waals force were revealed to dominate for MO- adsorption. This work obtained ‘localized’ interfacial information and elucidated in-situ intermolecular interactions at g-C3N4 interface, which can provide fundamental basis for operation removal of organic dye pollutants by g-C3N4. |
