Hence, finding a sustainable and cost effective adsorbent to reduce fluoride from water has become a major challenge for researchers. The present work demonstrates one of the new types of adsorbent materials, which is a modification of graphene oxide (GO) with egg shell. Graphene oxide impregnated with egg shell (GO/ES) was synthesized via the Modified Hummer’s method prior the impregnation method. A batch adsorption experiment was conducted to investigate the adsorption of fluoride from aqueous solution by GO/ES adsorbent. Parameters such as contact time and temperature were evaluated. The results showed that GO/ES is an effective fluoride adsorbent with an adsorption capacity of up to 28.12 mg/g at 25°C and 36.08 mg/g at 120 mins of contact time. The adsorption kinetic analysis indicated that the adsorption data can be well described by Pseudo-second-order kinetic model which indicate chemisorption process, while thermodynamic studies revealed that the adsorption reaction was an exothermic process. The FTIR analysis was done to determine the functional group responsible in fluoride adsorption. Keywords: Graphene oxide, Egg shell, Fluoride, Adsorption, Kinetic and Thermodynamic. 1.INTRODUCTION Most of sewage and industrial effluents are disposed or discharged into water bodies and on land causing serious pollution problem. Organic and inorganic substance contained in the wastewater which sometime could be toxic are usually discharged without any appropriate treatment into water body such as oceans, rivers, streams and lakes. One of the most common pollutant identified in these water bodies is fluoride [1]. Fluoride is an ion of the chemical element fluorine whereas fluorine is the pure elemental form typically found as F2. Fluorine belongs to the halogen group and it is the most electronegative and reactive of all the elements. Fluoride in the other hand, can be found in almost every water sources [2]. In the groundwater, the main source of fluoride is from the

There are also minerals that is formed from the reaction between fluoride ion and existing substance or components in nature. As a result, inorganic minerals such as hydrogen fluoride (HF), calcium fluoride (CaF2), sodium fluoride (NaF), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) are formed [3]. Use of phosphatic fertilizers for agricultural purposes and industrial activities the usage of clays in ceramic industry or burning of coals can also contribute to high fluoride concentrations in ground water [4]. However, our everyday needs such as the tooth pastes, chewing gums, cosmetics, drugs, mouthwashes, and etc. also contain certain amount of fluoride. If amount of fluoride is within the permissible limits, it has beneficial effects towards human health where it can encourage healthy bone formation in human body. However, fluoride is considered to be excessive if the concentration is more than 1.5 mg L-1. This can cause negative effect such as dental and skeletal fluorosis are observed at human body [5]. This limit which is fixed by the WHO must be obeyed in order to prevent harmful consequent due to excessive fluoride. Excessive fluoride in human body could lead to osteoporosis, thyroid disorder and brittle bones [6]. Hence, it is very important to come out with an effective and systematic methods to reduce the fluoride levels to the acceptable limit. The adsorption phenomenon is probably the most widely used in separation method. Variety of adsorbents are known for the removal of fluoride from drinking water or solutions. One of the most emerging adsorbent used to remove fluoride is graphene [7]. Graphene, a new carbon nanomaterial, has unique physical, chemical, electrical and mechanical properties. Graphene oxide (GO) can be considered as an appealing member of carbon family due to the presence of various functional groups such as hydroxyl, epoxy groups and carboxylic groups and high surface area. GO has also proven to be an effective adsorbent for the adsorption of F- ion in aqueous solution with a very good and proven adsorption capacity [8]. Generally, GO possess a good bio-compatibility and high electron transfer ability. It also has high surface to volume ratio. Because of these special features of GO it can be easily impregnated with various polymers and nanoparticles to enhance their adsorption capability [9]. Due to these enhanced abilities between GO and nanoparticles, GO impregnated with nanoparticles such as natural calcium carbonate offer great potential for various applications including energy storage, energy conversion devices and adsorption [10]. 2. EXPERIMENTAL 2.1 Materials The GO is prepared by using the modified Hummers method. 2.5g of graphite powder and 1.25 g of sodium nitrate (NaNO3) were mixed with 60 ml of sulphuric acid (H2SO4) and was kept in an ice bath (0-6°C) while continuously stirred for duration of 2 hours. 7.5 g of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) was added slowly into the mixture, then, the mixture was continuously stirred. At this time the temperature of the mixture must be lower than 10°C. Then, the ice bath was removed while the mixture’s temperature was maintained at 30°C for 2 hours until it become pasty brownish in color. Then, 130 ml of DI water was added to the solution slowly as exothermic reaction occurred and the color of the mixture changed to brownish as the

Finally, oxidizer, which is 25 mL of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was added in order to terminate the mixture. By repeatedly using 400 ml of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and DI water, the mixture was filtered and washed prior dried in oven at 60°C for 1 day. Then, 5g of egg shell was mixed with 1 g GO in 300 mL of distilled water. Wait until the mixture turns homogeneous dark yellow. Then, the resulting suspension will be sonicated for 5 minutes and promote the intercalation of Ca2+ on the GO surface by stirring the mixture for 24 hours. The suspension will be filtered and washed by using distilled water several times. Centrifuge the filtrate at 3000 rpm and freeze-dried the filtrate. The Ca2+ ion will dispersed on the sheet of graphene oxide. 2.2 Characterization of materials The characterization study of GO/ES adsorbent was conducted by using the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). FTIR spectrum of graphene was recorded with a FTIR Spectrometer over the wave number range from 4000 to 400 cm-1 . The FTIR analysis is done to determine the existences of functional groups in both GO and GO/ES adsorbent so that the active functional groups that is responsible in adsorbing the fluoride ion could be identified. 2.3 Batch adsorption experiment Batch adsorption experiments were conducted to determine the fluoride adsorption equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic properties of the adsorption process. Fluoride stock solution (1000 mg/L) was prepared by dissolving sodium fluoride (NaF) in deionized water and further diluted to the required concentrations for the batch adsorption experiment. The study on the effect of contact time were conducted by varying it from 30, 60, 90 to 120 minutes. 0.05g of GO/ES adsorbent will be added respectively into 3 conical flasks containing 100mL of sodium fluoride each and will be stirred by using the orbital shaker at 200 rpm at ambient temperature. The recording time was started when GO/ES adsorbent was added into the flasks. In the other hand, To determine the effect of temperature, adsorption experiments will be carried out at 25, 45 and 65°C, respectively. 0.05g of GO/ES adsorbent dosage are added into 3 conical flasks containing 100 mL of sodium fluoride solution each. Then, the mixtures will be stirred by using the orbital shaker at 200rpm for 120 minutes and the amount of removal of fluoride for each flask/sample will be measured 3 RESULT AND DISCUSSION 3.1 Characterization of materials 3.1.1 Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) The functional groups of both GO and GO/ES adsorbent were determined by using the FTIR. Figure As seen in figure 1(a), medium and broad band where the peak is at 3203.88 cm- 1 indicates oxygen containing functional group which is hydroxyl. The next absorption peak observed is at 1720.11 cm-1 and 1618.06 cm-1 which has medium intensity but sharp shape indicating C=O stretching of carboxylic or/and carbonyl functional groups [11]. The next

Figure 1: FTIR Spectrum of: (a) GO and (b) GO/ES adsorbent GO/ES adsorbent spectrum showed correlation with GO spectrum. For instance, bands that are already observed in GO spectrum were observed in GO/ES adsorbent spectrum, such as strong and broad peak at 3203.48 cm-1 can be attributed to the appearance of O-H group. While the bands at 1618.32 cm-1 indicate the existence of asymmetric and symmetric stretching vibration of C=O groups. The new functional group that appear after impregnation is between 1600 cm-1 until 600 cm-1 where two sharp and strong peak, at about 1396.04 cm-1 and 871.95 cm-1, correspond to the stretching vibration of CaCO3 group. It justifies that the functional peak of CaCO3 and the region on GO where CaCO3 components are attached [12]. 3.2 Effect of contact time As illustrated in Figure 2(a), the adsorption of fluoride increased with rise in contact time upto 120 min and further increase in contact time did not enhance the fluoride adsorption process. The adsorption process attained equilibrium after 100 min with 36.08mg/g adsorption capacity achieved . The fast adsorption rate at the initial stage may be explained by an increased availability in the number of active binding sites on the adsorbent surface [13]. The adsorption rapidly occurs and normally controlled by the diffusion process from the bulk to the surface.

This result indicates low temperature favors the removal of fluoride molecules by adsorption onto GO/ES adsorbent. The decreasing of removal may be due to at high temperature thethickness of the boundary layer decreases due to increased tendency of the molecules toescape from the adsorbent surface to the solution phase, which results in a decrease in theadsorption capacity as temperature is increased [14]. 3.3 Adsorption kinetic study In this research the kinetic analysis of fluoride adsorption by using GO/ES adsorbent were analyzed using pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The pseudo- first-order equation of Lagregren is generally expressed as below [15], 303.2 log)log( 1tK qqq ee (1) where qe and q are the adsorption capacities at equilibrium and at certain time of adsorption respectively while K1 is the rate constant of pseudo-first-order adsorption. The pseudo-first- order rate constant, K1, can be obtained from the slope of the graph of log(qe-q) versus time t as shown in figure 3 below. The calculated K1 values and corresponding linear regression correlation coefficient values are shown in Table 1.

Similar with pseudo- first-order, the rate constant, K2 can be determined by the slope of the graph of t/q versus time t as shown in figure 4 below. Figure 4: Pseudo-second-order adsorption kinetic model The adsorption capacity equilibrium, qe and the rate constant K for both models are also shown in table below. Table 1: Kinetic parameter for the adsorption of fluoride by GO/ES adsorbent As shown in table 1, R1 2 values for pseudo-second-order kinetic model is higher than pseudo- first-order, indicates that the pseudo-first-order model can be used to represent the kinetic of adsorption of fluoride onto GO/ES adsorbent. According to pseudo-second-order theory, the adsorption of fluoride onto GO/ES adsorbent is a chemisorption process which involve sharing or exchange of electrons between the adsorbent [16]. 3.4 Adsorption thermodynamic study Thermodynamic parameters, such as change in Gibbs free energy (ΔGo ), enthalpy (ΔHo) and entropy (ΔSo), were evaluated in this study.

This is because the values of ΔGo in between 0 and to 20 kJ/mol indicate a physic-sorption process, while the values in between −80 to −400 kJ/mol correspond to chemisorption process [14]. The increment in value of ΔGo with increase in temperature suggests that higher temperature makes the adsorption unfavorable [17]. While the negative value of ΔSo indicate that the process is enthalpy driven and the negative value of ΔHo implies that the adsorption phenomenon is exothermic [15]. 4 CONCLUSION GO/ES adsorbent has considerable potential for the removal of fluoride from aqueous solution. The presence of high fluoride content in water bodies results in the deterioration of water quality. So fluoride removal is important in the control of quality of water bodies and adsorption is tested to be one of the promising approach. GO was synthesized by modified Hummer’s method before being impregnated with egg shell. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out to investigate adsorption kinetics and equilibrium. The characterization of the adsorbent was investigated using FTIR while in the adsorption test, contact time, temperature, adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics of fluoride removal were examined. The optima for contact time and temperature parameter were obtained which are 120 minutes and 25o C where 36.08mg/g and 28.12mg/g of adsorption capacity were achieved. The studies of adsorption of fluoride through the kinetic modeling has been investigated where the adsorption kinetics is well-suited to pseudo-second-order kinetic model with correlation coefficient of 0.9386. This indicates that the process is a chemisorption process. The thermodynamic studies revealed from the value of ΔGo , ΔHo and ΔSo of the adsorption of fluoride were an exothermic process and decrement in the degree of freedom of the adsorbed species. Increase in value of ΔGo with increase in temperature suggests that higher temperature makes the adsorption unfavorable. FTIR analysis of both GO and GO/ES adsorbent was done and the FTIR spectrums obtained confirmed that GO had been successfully synthesized and calcium carbonate had been composited over the GO surface indicating successful impregnation of egg shell onto the GO.
