dc.description.abstractIn this study, the photocatalytic oxidation of hazardous arsenite (As(III)) to arsenate (As(V)) and the sequential removal of arsenate from aqueous solution by liquid-phase polymer-based retention (LPR) were investigated. The photocatalytic oxidation of arsenite was performed using TiO2 (P25 Degussa, Germany) under UV-A light. The optimal photocatalytic conditions to oxidize 10 mg L-1 of arsenite solution were achieved using a 0.5 g L-1 of catalyst at a pH value of 2. The As(III) oxidation reached 100% after 30 min of illumination with UV-A light. A water-soluble polymer containing quaternary ammonium groups, poly(3-acrylamidopropyl) trimethylammonium chloride (P(ClAPTA)), was used as an extracting reagent in the LPR process. To obtain the optimized conditions, the removal experiments were performed at various polymer : As(V) molar ratios using 10 mg L-1 of arsenate solutions. After the oxidation of As(III) to As(V), the removal of arsenate by P(ClAPTA) was obtained in a 99% yield using a 20 : 1 polymer : As(V) molar ratio at a pH value of 9. The results demonstrate that the combination of these methods is highly useful for potential applications related to the treatment of wastewater contaminated with As(III).
