Abstract

Chronic effect of manganese exposure to humans caused the dysfunction of nervous system. An applied sorbent based on hydrophobic ionic liquid passed on mesoporous silica nanoparticles was used for adsorption/removal of manganese dust (Mn) from workplace air by solid phase adsorption method. In bench scale set up, 5 mL of standard solution of nitrate and oxide of Mn (0.2-5 mg L-1) was used for generation of manganese dust in pure air by drying procedure, and then was passed through column of IL/MSNPs by SKC pump with flow rate of 200-500 mL min-1 by SKC pump. The Mn particles separated from column of IL/MSNPs by irrigation of nitric acid solution before determined by F-AAS/ET-AAS. In optimized conditions, the adsorption capacity of MSNPs and IL/MSNPs for Mn removal from air in batch system (1 Li) was obtained 118.5 mg g-1 and 216.2 mg g-1, respectively.
