Abstract
This work investigates the proanthocyanidin profile of willow bark crude extracts and these materials were cationized and preliminarily tested as biocoagulants for water treatment. The characteristics of crude extracts proanthocyanidin were investigated using size exclusion chromatography (SEC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). XPS analysis indicates that the crude extracts contain significant amounts of sugars. Furthermore, SEC and liquid-state NMR spectroscopy showed that crude extract contains roughly 3–4 flavan-3-ol units with procyanidin (PC)/ prodelphinidin (PD) ratio of roughly 3–5. Thus, the modified form of tannin (proanthocyanidin-enriched) coagulants obtained the higher cationic charge density. The coagulation experiments with kaolin-river water mixture suggested that all the selected willow hybrids’ tannin coagulants were effective in settling the particles down. This study indicates that the value of willow bark can be significantly improved by the usage of crude extracts for water treatment.
