This work focuses on the development of zinc/aluminum layered double hydroxides (LDHs) phases intercalated by carbonates ions (Zn-Al-CO3) and their use in the removal of pharmaceutical pollutants The materials were synthesized by the co-precipitation method at different Zn/Al molar ratios (r¼ 1, 3 and 5) Each synthesized material was calcined at 300, 400, 500 and 600C to increase their perfor-mance Samples were characterized by various physicochemical techniques including XRD, FTIR, ICP-AES and TEM-EDX The as-synthesized and calcined products were used for the removal of salicylic acid (SA)
as a model of pharmaceutical pollutants The results obtained show that the Zn/Al molar ratios and calcination temperatures have a great influence on the adsorption capacity The optimum adsorption efficiency was found to be 94.59% for Zn/Al molar ratio of 3 and a calcination temperature of 300C Kinetics of the adsorption takes place in two steps; thefirst fast rapid step can be interpreted by the adsorption on the external surface of the crystallites, while the second slow step could be due the reconstruction phenomenon of LDHs structure“memory effect” After the adsorption processes, XRD patterns show that the calcined product (r¼ 3, T ¼ 300C) was reconstructed by a salicylic acid The adsorption performance was slightly decreased with regeneration cycles

1 Introduction
Environmental contamination has reached a stage where it
must be seriously examined Among the various types of pollution,
water pollution has attracted the most attention of researchers The
main sources of water contamination include industrial activities
(food, textile, paper, rubber, leather, plastics, coal, petrochemical,
pharmaceutical, etc.), agricultural activities (the use of pesticides
and herbicides in agriculture, forestry, as well as veterinary and
aquaculture drugs), and domestic activities[1e3] During the last
decades, there has been a rising concern about the pharmaceuticals
and personal care products (PPCPs) discovered in various surface
and ground waters across the world[4,5] These chemicals include
a wide variety of substances such as painkillers, tranquilizers,
an-tibiotics, skin care products, hair styling agents and so forth[5] The
discharge of PPCPs or their metabolites into environment through the production process and daily consumption would pose long-term adverse effects, such as gene modification and resistance to drugs, on the aquatic microorganisms and human bodies, even at trace concentrations[6,7] Besides, due to the continuous usage and release into aquatic environment, the pollution caused by PPCPs usually exhibits the pseudo-persistent behavior[8] As a conse-quence, effective removal of such hazardous substances from water system needs to be given priority to avoid any potential toxicity to living organisms
Salicylic acid (SA) is largely employed worldwide in many pharmaceutical formulations such as aspirin, lopirin, fenamifuril,
diflunisal, salicylamide, and benorylatum[9e11] In spite of that, SA
is a typical pollutant in the industrial wastewater, capable of causing serious environmental problems Also, SA is toxic to the human being, it can induce headache and nausea and even affects the normal functions of liver and kidney For these reasons, efficient removal and recycling of SA from aqueous solution is a pressing problem and has attracted numerous attentions in recent years [12,13]

Trang 2Several technologies including photocatalytic degradation,
bio-logical processes, membrane separation and adsorption have been
used for the treatment of wastewater [14e21], among which
adsorption is proved to be one of the most attractive and effective
techniques[22,23]
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) or even anionic clays are the
subject of a lively interest since these last years, because of their
high anionic exchange capacity (2e5 mmol/g), their high specific
surface area (20e120 m2/g), the presence offillers on the surface,
and especially the tradability of interlayered anions[24,25]
The general formula of a LDH is: [MII1-xMIIIx(OH)2]xþ.(Anx/n)
mH2O, where MIIrepresents a divalent cation (Mg2þ, Zn2þ, Ni2þ,
Mn2þ, Fe2þ…), MIIIrepresents a trivalent cation (Al3þ, Cr3þ, Fe3þ,
Co3þ, Mn3þ…), An the compensating anion (Cl, NO3, ClO24,
CO23…), n the charge of the anion, and m is the number of water
molecules located in the interlayer region together with the anion
The coefficient, x, is the molar fraction, [MIII/(MIIþ MIII)][26]
Our work focuses on the elaboration of LDH materials, based on
zinc and aluminum metals and interspersed by carbonates ions
(Zn-Al-CO3) Several Zn/Al molar ratios were synthesized by
co-precipitation method Zn-Al-CO3 materials were calcined at
different temperatures (300, 400, 500 and 600C) in a tubular
furnace Samples were characterized by different physicochemical
techniques The as-synthesized and calcined products were
inves-tigated in the removal of salicylic acid from aqueous solution
2 Experimental
2.1 Materials
The starting chemicals; zinc nitrate (Zn(NO3)2.6H2O), aluminum
nitrate (Al(NO3)3.9H2O), sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), sodium
hy-droxide (NaOH) and salicylic acid have been purchased from
SigmaeAldrich (Germany) Nitric acid, 65%, extra pure was
ob-tained from Scharlau chemie (Spain) All the used chemicals were
of analytical grade and were used without further purification
Bidistilled water was used as the solvent throughout this study
2.2 Preparation of LDHs and their calcined products
Zn-Al-CO3layered double hydroxide materials were prepared by
co-precipitation method from metal salts, at different Zn/Al molar
ratios (r¼ 1, 3 and 5) A mixture solution of Zn(NO3)2.6H2O and
Al(NO3)3.9H2O with a total concentration of metal ions of 2 mol/L and
Na2CO3(1 mol/L) was added drop-wise in a backer containing 50 mL
of bidistilled water The pH of the mixture was adjusted and kept
constant at 8.5± 0.2 during the synthesis byadding suitable amounts
of NaOH solution (2 mol/L) The gel formed was stirred vigorously for
4 h and then transferred into an autoclave and hydrothermally
treated at 75C for 16 h Afterward, the suspension wasfiltered and
washed with bidistilled water until reaching pH~7 and dried at
100C for 24 h The resulting products (Zn-Al-CO3) were ground into
fine powder and stored in sample bottles for further use Samples
were calcined at different temperature (300, 400, 500 and 600C) in
a tubular furnace for 6 h They were labeled as LDH-r-T, where r
represents the Zn/Al molar ratio and T the calcination temperature
2.3 Characterization
Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of all samples were
recorded in 2qrange from 5 to 70at room temperature on a D2
PHASER diffractometer, using CuKa radiations with 30 KV and
10 mA FTIR spectra in KBr pellets were collected on a Perkin Elmer
(FTIR-2000) spectrophotometer, in the range of 4000-400 cm1
Elemental analysis for Zn/Al molar ratios was measured by an
inductively coupled plasma-atom emission spectrum (ICP-AES, JobinYvon Ultima2.) after dissolving the materials in HNO3 acid Transmission electron microscopy coupled to the energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (TEM/EDX) images were collected on a TEM TECNAI G2/FEI instrument, at an accelerating voltage of 120 kV 2.4 Adsorption test
A solution containing SA with an initial concentration of 30 mg/L was prepared by dissolving the desired quantity in bidistilled water The adsorption performances of different materials were carried out by mixing 250 mg of each sample in 250 mL of the above cited solution in beaker under stirring 3 mL of solution was extracted at different time intervals andfiltered by syringe filter (Minisart type NML, Membrane: A.C 0.2mm absolute) to remove the particles for analysis, and the concentrations of SA were analyzed using a double-beam scanning spectrophotometer (Shimadzu spectro-photometer, model biochrom) at the wavelength of 297 nm The adsorbed quantity and adsorption efficiency (Removal (%)) were calculated using the following equations:
q¼ðC0 CÞ
Removalð%Þ ¼C0 C
where q (mg/g) is the quantity of SA adsorbed per unit mass of adsorbent, C0(mg/L) is the initial SA concentration, C (mg/L) is the
SA concentration after adsorption and R (g/L) is the mass of adsorbent per liter of aqueous solution
3 Results and discussion 3.1 Characterization 3.1.1 X-ray diffraction (XRD) study and ICP-AES analysis Fig 1illustrated the XRD patterns of LDHs and their calcined products The XRD patterns of the fresh materials showed a layered double hydroxide type structure in all the samples Typical peaks at (003), (006), (012), (104), (015), (018), (110) and (113) diffraction plans have been observed The (003) reflection is typical of hydrotalcite-type materials and its intensity is related to the crys-tallinity degree of the material If a hexagonal packing is assumed, the cell parameters (a and c) can be calculated by means of the (003) and (110) reflection values, where parameter a represents the average metalemetal distance in the interlayer structure calculated from the position of the (110) reflection and parameter c corre-sponds to three times the interlayer distance determined from the position of the (003) reflection The cell volume (V) was calculated according to the equation V¼pffiffiffi3
a2c=2 using the calculated cell parameters[27]
The lattice parameters (a and c) of different LDHs were calcu-lated according to Miller indices and Bragg equation 2d.sinq¼ nl, where d is interplanar spacing of certain crystal face,qis the Bragg diffraction angle, and l is the X-ray wavelength, and their relationships
Table 1shows the cell parameters (a and c), volume and the molar ratio Zn/Al of the samples, which was determined by ICP-AES The table indicates a slightly increasing of parameters a, c and volume cell with increasing molar ratio This result could be attributed to the substitution of Al3þby Zn2þwith the ionic radii for
Zn (0.74 nm) which is larger than that of Al (0.53 nm) The d value increases steadily with increasing average radii of metallic cations, which depends directly on the angle q The value of diffraction

according to Bragg equation There are a great dependence between
the volume cell and the molar ratio with the correlation coefficient
(R2¼ 0.94)
After calcination, the lamellar solid collapsed and new peaks corresponding to ZnO oxide and ZnAl2O4 spinel phases were observed[28] At 300C the characteristic XRD peaks of ZnO oxide started to appear in all samples By increasing the temperature, Fig 1 X-ray diffractograms of the raw and calcined Zn-Al-CO 3 , (a): r ¼ 1, (b): r ¼ 3 and (c): r ¼ 5.

Trang 4characteristic reflections of the mixed composite ZnO-ZnAl2O4
appear at 600C The ratio ZnO/ZnAl2O4increases with increasing
Zn/Al molar ratio, because the amount of Al decreased
3.1.2 Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR)
Fig 3shows the FTIR spectra of fresh and calcined Zn-Al-CO3at
different Zn/Al molar ratio and calcination temperatures For the
sake of clarity only the main absorption bands were listed Broad
and intense band centered on 3400 cm1is attributed to the O-H
stretching vibration in the brucite-like layers and the interlamellar
water molecules The broadening of this band is attributed to
hydrogen-bond formation [29] The band at approximately
1617 cm1indicates the O-H bending vibration of the interlayer
water molecules Even after calcination, some H2O in the air would
have dissolved into the mixture during the storage The band
observed at 1368 cm1is assigned to theyCO3 of the carbonate
anions This band disappears during calcination The intensity of
this band rapidly decreases as the temperature increases above
300C, which is attributed to the decomposition of the carbonate
anion CO3in the interlayer space The bands in the low-frequency
region correspond to the lattice vibration modes such as the
translation vibrations by M-O (590 and 670 cm1) and O-M-O
(430 cm1) vibrations [29] From thefigure it is noted that the
bands M-O increase progressively as the temperature rises from
300 to 600C
For the band characteristic of carbonate ions, the wave number
varies slightly with Zn/Al molar ratio It moves toward the low
frequencies with the increase of Zn/Al ratio (1371, 1368 and
1366 cm1for LDH-1, LDH-3 and LDH-5 respectively) This result
due to the difference in the atomic mass between zinc (65.40 g/
mol) and aluminum (26.98 g/mol)
3.1.3 TEM/EDX observation
The TEM images of the samples are shown inFig 4(a,c,e) As can
be seen, LDH-1 and LDH-3 were well crystallized with typical
hexagonal structure morphology, as reported previously[30]
LDH-3 shows platelet particles confirmed the perfect lamellar structure obtained by XRD analysis and the average particle size distribution was around 100 nm For LDH-1, the image display hexagonal platelet like particles, the darker lines indicate the presence of aggregate crystallites which probably obtained from a dense agglomeration of particles The average diameter of dispersed particles is around 180 nm In the case of LDH-5, we can observe the disappearance of the hexagonal platelets and appearance of ag-glomerates This observation was confirmed by the low crystallinity observed in XRD patterns EDX spectrum of the materials is shown
inFig 4(b,d,f) The results confirm the presence of Zn, Al, O and C
No peaks from other elements were detected, indicating high pu-rity of the products
3.2 Adsorption of salicylic acid 3.2.1 Effect of Zn/Al molar ration The effect of contact time on SA adsorption by Zn-Al-CO3 at different Zn/Al molar ratio was illustrated in Fig 5 The result revealed that the removal takes place in two different steps; the first step involves a rapid removal at 10 min The second one show a

efficiency of SA reached 5.12, 15.22 and 25.53% for LDH-3, LDH-5 and LDH-1, respectively
3.2.2 Effect of calcination temperature For increasing the adsorption capacity of the LDHs, the materials were calcined at different temperatures (T¼ 300, 400, 500 and
600C).Fig 6shows the effect of calcination temperature on the adsorption performance of LDH-1 The adsorption capacity of SA by LDH-1-500 and LDH-1-600 is lower (33.8 and 16.3% respectively)
At T¼ 300 and 400C, the samples show the highest adsorption
capacity compared to the other calcination temperatures The curves can be divided into two steps, a first one due to the adsorption on the surface of LDH and a second may be due to reconstruction phenomenon[31,32]

Trang 6Fig 7shows the adsorption kinetics of SA on LDHs-3 and their
calcined products It can be seen that the removal efficiency
increased rapidly with time, and then reached the equilibrium
constant value The SA is weakly adsorbed (25.5 and 9.1%) on
LDH-3-500 and LDH-3-600, respectively In the presence of LDH-3-300
and LDH-3-400 the removal of SA is important reach: 66.5 and
74.4%, respectively
Fig 8 shows the effect of calcination temperature on the
adsorption performance of LDH-5 The LDH-5-600 material
mani-fests the lowest percentage of elimination of SA (12.7%) followed by
LDH-5-500 (56.3%) In the presence of LDH-5-300 and LDH-5-400,
around 81.6 and 82.3% respectively of SA was removed within a
contact time of 3 h, with a large reconstruction step
It is evident that the calcination temperature has a great in
flu-ence on adsorption of SA The capacity of the LDHs materials
in-creases with increasing calcination temperature until 400C This
result could be attributed to the decomposition of the carbonate
anion CO3 in the interlayer space (between 300C and 320C) and
the formation of mixed oxides, able quickly to be reconstructed by
SA At T¼ 600C, the characteristic peaks of spinel structure started
to appear, which is not beneficial in the reconstruction process[31]
3.2.3 Reconstruction
Fig 9shows XRD patterns of LDH (r¼ 3 and T ¼ 300C) before
and after adsorption of SA Thefigure shows the reappearance of
the typical peaks of LDHs structure corresponding to (003), (006),
(012), (104), (015), (018), (110) and (113) reticular plans This result
confirms the reconstruction phenomenon After calcination, the
interlayer space is removed The obtained material can retake
an-ions and water into the interlayer spaces upon contact with
solu-tion After adding LDHs in SA solution, they can uptake new anions
(SA) into their interlayer spaces as a result of“memory effect” A
comparison of the parameters (a and c) of LDH-3 and
300-reconstructed indicate an increase of the parameters for
LDH-3-300-reconstructed due to the high volume of SA intercalated
Proposed mechanism for the adsorption of SA is shown in the Fig 10
The maximum adsorption capacity obtained in this study was compared to previous records of various adsorbents as summarized
inTable 2 It can be seen that obtained qmaxdata of the present study were found to be higher than those of the most corre-sponding adsorbents in the literature[33e37]
3.2.4 Regeneration The regeneration of adsorbents is the most difficult and expensive part of an adsorption technology It may account for
>70% of the total operating and maintenance cost for an adsorption system[38] A successful regeneration process should restore the adsorbent similar to its initial properties for effective reuse Ad-sorbates can be recovered either for reuse or for proper disposal, depending on their market demand
The best adsorbent (LDH-3-300) was regenerated by calcination
at 300C and used again for the adsorption of SA The results are

Trang 7given inFig 11 Thefigure shows that the adsorbent remove a large
amount of reaches 78.77%, with little loss of SA adsorption capacity
16.72% Regenerated adsorbent can be used in several cycles
The results suggest that the LDH-3-300 material may have
practical application potential as an effective and stable adsorbent
for removal of different pharmaceuticals
4 Conclusion
Our work focuses on the development of LDHs phases based on
zinc and aluminum metals and interspersed by carbonates ions
(Zn-Al-CO3) Several Zn/Al molar ratios (r¼ 1, 3 and 5) were
syn-thesized by of co-precipitation method The LDHs were calcined at
different temperatures (300, 400, 500 and 600C) LDHs materials
were characterized by several physicochemical techniques (XRD,
FTIR, ICP-AES and TEM/EDX) During the calcination, the materials
transformed into mixed metal oxides (ZnO-ZnAl2O4) The best
removal rate of SA (94.59%) was obtained by Zn/Al molar ratio of 3
and calcined at 300C The LDH-3-300 has been reconstructed by
SA The adsorbent showed high stability after two regeneration
cycles Finally the results showed that these synthetic anionic clays
present a remarkable performance to be used as economic and
efficient adsorbents for the removal of pharmaceutical pollutants
from an aqueous solution
