| Resumo: | Produced water is a major waste generated during oil exploration and production. Due to its large volume and complex chemical composition an effort arises so that the contaminant concentrations meet the current legislation, in order to reduce harmful effects on the environment caused by its disposal without prior treatment. The objective of this paper is to characterize produced water from the Periquito field, RN, Brazil, and assess the adsorptive potential of babassu nut charcoal for removal of calcium and strontium from produced water, focusing on its suitability for disposal. Through the physicochemical characterization of the produced water, it was possible to observe that the concentrations of calcium and strontium were: 322 mg/L and 69 mg/L, respectively. The material to be used as an adsorbent was characterized through different physicochemical techniques, such as laser particle size, density, elemental analysis, thermal analysis, XRF, SEM, XRD and pHPZC. Provided the characterization analysis, adsorption experiments were carried out using the method of finite bath in synthetic solutions of both calcium and strontium. The results showed that babassu nut charcoal has maximum adsorption removal at low concentrations. In parallel with the study on adsorption in synthetic solutions, adsorption experiments were performed with produced water, whose results showed that babassu nut charcoal has good adsorption potential, removing over 50% of calcium and above 45% strontium, and having values of 17.31 mg/g for the adsorption capacity for calcium and 3.15 mg/g for strontium. In order to optimize the experiments, the full factorial design of two levels was applied in order to verify the influence of the concentration of calcium, strontium and the mass of the adsorbent in synthetic solution on the percentage of removal (%) and the adsorption capacity of adsorption of these metals. From the analysis results, it was possible to observe that the optimal regions for the removal of these metals was in the upper level of the metal concentration and in the upper level of the adsorbent mass (+1, +1) obtaining a maximum removal of 58 % for calcium and 63 % for strontium. |
