Περίληψη | The mechanism of decolorization of crude maize and sunflower oils was studied by means of
adsorption of b-carotene by a low-grade bentonite , containin g mixed-layered illite-smectite.
Decolorization depends on temperature and the time required for equilibrium decreases with increasing
temperature. The study of the kinetics of adsorption showed that decolorization of maize oil is a first-order
process which occurs in two steps: a first fast step with higher activation energy (25.6 kJ mol –1),
indicating the influence of a chemical interaction between the pigment and the clay surface, followed by a
second slow step with low activation energy (12.3 kJ mol –1), characteristic of physical adsorption on the
previously adsorbed molecules. Decolorization of sunflower oil is also a first-order process, described by a
single mechanism with intermediate activation energy (19.0 kJ mol –1). Adsorption isotherms of
decolorization of maize oil follow the Freundlich equation, indicating the existence of heterogeneous
adsorption sites on the solid’s surface. Heterogeneity is attributed both to different active centers on the
smectite surface (Bro¨ nsted and Lewis centers) and to the different phases present in bentonite, such as
illitic layers and clinoptilolite, which also have active centers on their surfaces. | en |
