This paper focused on the studying of adsorption properties of Fe3O4-waste paper activated carbon composites for the removal of methylene blue dyes from water. The various parameters were carried out for the adsorption test of the composites, namely; contact time, adsorbent dose, initial MB concentration, pH solution, and temperature. The adsorption of isotherm, thermodynamics and kinetic was used to determine the characteristics of methylene blue adsorption onto the prepared adsorbent. The result indicates that the optimum adsorption capacity has occurred at pH = 6 in water solution. The adsorption capacity increase as the temperature increase until at 315K (45oC). The Langmuir isotherm is more appropriate to be applied as the adsorption model with the maximum adsorption capacity (qm) value of 101 and 93 mg/g for KA HCl-Fe3O4 and KA-Fe3O4 composites, respectively. The value of adsorption thermodynamic parameters was positive for ΔH, negative for ΔGo and positive for ΔSo, meaning the process adsorptions were endothermic, feasibility and spontaneity and randomness, respectively. The pseudo-second-order model was appropriate to predict the kinetic models for methylene blue adsorption onto the composites. The obtained adsorbent composites possess high adsorption efficiency and rapid magnetic separation. They were a promising for practical wastewater treatment for dyes removal from water.

Currently, there is a great pollution of water by the dyes; due to this, several studies have been carried out to remove these compounds. However, the total elimination of these pollutants from the aquatic effluents has represented a great challenge for the scientific community, for which it is necessary to carry out investigations that allow the purification of water. In this work, we studied the bioadsorption of methylene blue on the surface of the biomass obtained from the algae D. antarctica. This material was characterized by SEM and FTIR. To the data obtained in the biosorption experiments, different models of biosorption and kinetics were applied, finding that the best fit to the obtained data is given by applying the pseudo-second-order models and the Toth model, respectively. It was also determined that the maximum adsorption capacity of MB on the surface of the biomass is 702.9 mg/g, which shows that this material has great properties as a bioadsorbent.

Abstract Although rice husk (RH) is a readily available, natural, heavy metal adsorbent, adsorption capacity in its natural form is insufficient for certain heavy metal ions. In this context, the study is based on enhancement of the adsorption capacity of RH for Cu(II). NaOH modified rice husk (SRH) shows higher extent of removal for Cu(II) ions than that of heated rice husk (HRH) and HNO3 modified rice husk (NRH). The extent of removal of SRH is increased with the concentration of NaOH, and the optimum NaOH concentration is 0.2 mol dm−3, used to modify rice husk for further studies. The surface area of SRH is 215 m2 g−1, which is twice as much as that of HRH according to previous studies. The sorption of Cu(II) on SRH obeys the Langmuir adsorption model, leading to the maximum adsorption capacity of 1.19 × 104 mg kg−1. Kinetics studies show that the interaction of Cu(II) with SRH obeys pseudo second order kinetics. The X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy confirms the adsorption of Cu(II) on SRH, while desorption studies confirm that Cu(II) adsorbed on SRH does not leach it back to water under normal conditions.

In this study, two types of adsorbent including activated carbon and bio-sorbent were produced from Palm fiber wastes (PFW), which were activated by phosphoric acid. The influence of adsorbent type and phosphoric acid concentration on methylene blue adsorption was investigated. The most optimum adsorbent was determined based on adsorption capacity and removal percentage of each adsorbent. The result shows that 9.984 mg/g of adsorption capacity and 99.84% of removal percentage were achieved in 90 minutes’ adsorption, which demonstrates the huge potential of bio-sorbent and was chosen to be the most optimum adsorbent based on methylene blue removal. The characterization of bio-sorbent was then investigated using FTIR and SEM. FTIR result shows that bio-sorbent contains cellulose which affected the adsorption process while SEM result shows the cleaner pores and surface compared to bio-sorbent before activation.

Biosorbents can be an alternative to activated carbon. They are derived from agricultural by-products or aquatic biomass. They are low cost and they may have comparable performances to those of activated carbon. The present study focuses on the characterization of the Corallina Elongata (CE) alga and its adsorption performance for Methylene Blue (MB), this alga is found in abundance at the Mediterranean coast of the city of Jijel in eastern Algeria. The dried alga was characterized using various characterization techniques such as DTA, TG, FTIR, XRD, SEM and EDX, which showed that the material consists essentially of a calcite containing magnesium. Batch adsorption studies were carried out and the effect of experimental parameters Such as pH, initial dye concentration, temperature, adsorbent dose and contact time, on the adsorption of MB was studied. The kinetic experimental data were found to conform to the pseudo-second-order model with good correlation and equilibrium data were best fitted to The Langmuir model, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 34.4 mg/g. The adsorption isotherms at various temperatures allowed the determination of certain thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS). Finally, the adsorption results showed a good affinity between CE and MB with a high adsorption capacity.

Activated lignin having surface area of 1023 m2.g-1 has been prepared from sulfate lignin that was treated by 30 % H2O2 and carbonized at 300 °C in order to test the chromium (VI) adsorption from aqueous solution. The influence of contact time, pH, initial concentration of adsorbent and adsorbate and temperature on the adsorption capacity were investigated. The maximum removal of Cr(VI) was found to be 92,36 % at pH=2 and contact time of 80 min. Optimal concentration of lignin and Cr(VI) were found to be 3.8 g.l-1 and 180 mg.l-1, respectively. The adsorption kinetics was tested pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order equation. The analytical data were fitted well in a pseudo-second-order equation and the rate of removal of chromium was found to speed up with increasing temperature. Activation energy for the adsorption process was found to be 18.19 Kj.mol-1. The Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm models were applied to describe the isotherm and isotherm constants for the adsorption of Cr (VI) on lignin. These constants and correlation coefficients of the isotherm models were calculated and compared. Results indicated that Cr (VI) uptake could be described by the Langmuir adsorption model. The maximum adsorption capacity (qm) of Cr (VI) on lignin was 75.75 mg.g-1 at temperature of 40°C. The dimensionless equilibrium parameter (RL) signified a favorable adsorption of Cr (VI) on lignin and was found between 0.0601 and 0.818 (0<RL<1). The thermodynamic parameters like ΔG°, ΔS° and ΔH° were calculated and it has been found that the reaction was spontaneous and endothermic in nature. This study indicates that lignin has the potential to become an effective and economical adsorbent for removal Cr (VI) from the waste water.

Abstract This paper presents a study into dynamic behaviour of the methylene blue adsorption (MB) on activated carbon. Effect of four parameters were studied: effect of the adsorbent dosage, effect of contact time, effect of pH, and effect of the initial concentration of methylene blue. The adsorption kinetic data were modelled using the pseudo-first and pseudo-second orders. Results show that, based on the experimental data, the pseudo-second order could be considered satisfactory. Thermodynamic parameters proved that adsorption of dye was spontaneous owing to increase in temperature and endothermic nature. Taguchi method was applied to determine the optimum conditions for removal of methylene blue by activated carbon. The optimum conditions were found to be pH = 7, contact time 60 min, initial concentration of MB 4 mg/L.

The aim of this research is to investigate the feasibility of using activated carbon from cocoa pod shells, waste from agriculture to adsorb methylene blue from aqueous solutions through batch tests. Various physiochemical parameters such as, contact time, initial dye concentration, adsorbent dosage, pH of dye solution and temperature were investigated in a batch-adsorption technique. The process followed the pseudo-second order kinetics model which showed chemical adsorption. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were used to determine adsorption constants. The maximum adsorption capacity at 30°C is 526.31 mg/g. Thermodynamic parameters such as enthalpy change (∆Hº), free energy change (∆Gº) and entropy change (∆Sº) were studied, and the adsorption process of BM was found to be exothermic and spontaneous.

This paper focuses on the removal of methylene blue by adsorption using a mixture of titaniferous sand and attapulgite. The different adsorbents were characterized by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy and their different parameters such as pH, zero charge potential, and specific surface area were determined. The experiments performed were optimized and modeled by a full 2-level and 4-factor design. The four factors are the ratio of titaniferous sand and attapulgite, the concentration of methylene blue, pH, and time. These vary from 4 to 19, 20 to 100 mg/L, 2 to 9, and 30 to 150 min respectively. The study of the effects of the different factors showed that the effect of methylene blue concentration and pH significantly influence the adsorption capacity and removal efficiency of the dye. The optimum parameters (adsorbent ratio, adsorbate concentration, pH and time) obtained for the adsorption capacity through the desirability function are: 19, 100mg/L, 9 and 150min. Those obtained for the yield are: 4, 100mg/L, 9, 150min. The pseudo second order adsorption kinetics gave an equilibrium adsorption capacity qe (calculated) = 7.6863 mg/g which is almost equal to that obtained experimentally qe (exp) = 7.3562 mg/g. This shows that the pseudo second order kinetic model is the adequate mathematical model to describe the methylene blue adsorption phenomenon on the mixture of titaniferous sand and attapulgite. The thermodynamic study showed that the methylene blue adsorption reaction is exothermic, non-spontaneous, and the degree of disorder of the particles at the adsorbing surface decreases.

Hemicellulose-based porous hydrogel for methylene blue adsorption from aqueous solution was studied. The surface morphology of sample was analyzed by SEM, finding that it had the porous structure. Effects of pH and initial concentration on the adsorption capacity were investigated. Isotherm studies found that the adsorption of metylene blue onto absorbent was a monolayer adsorption, and the maximum adsorption capacity was 444.44 mg/g. The adsorption mechanism was analyzed by FT-IR, and it showed that the produced -COO- groups in alkaline conditions were advantaged for adsorption process, which offers the impetus for combination of adsorbent and methylene blue. Hemicellulose-based porous hydrogel is an inexpensive and biodegradable material, and can be a promising absorbent for cationic removing from wastewater.

Abstract The polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber membrane prepared by the electrospinning technology was used as the matrix, and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) was introduced into it to synthesize the composite nanofiber membrane. Taking methylene blue as the object, the adsorption performance of nanofiber membranes for dyes in the aqueous solution was studied. The structure, morphology, and specific surface area of the nanofiber membrane were characterized using FTIR, SEM, BET, XRD, and EDS. Meantime, the adsorption equilibrium was also explored. After being modified by cyclodextrin, a large number of cavity structures and hydrophobic binding sites were provided for the nanofiber membrane, and the adsorption performance was significantly improved. The results showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of the PAN/β-CD blend nanofiber membrane (at 25℃) for methylene blue was 108.66 mg g−1. The effects of pH, adsorption time, ion concentration, and adsorbent dosage on the adsorption capacity were also investigated. In addition, by fitting with the adsorption model, the adsorption process was more complex with the quasi-secondary adsorption kinetics and Langmuir isotherm adsorption model.
