The adsorption performance of a Cu-TiO2composite for removing acid blue 80 (AB80) dye from aqueous solutions was investigated in terms of kinetics, equilibrium, and thermodynamics. The effect of operating variables, such as solution pH, initial dye concentration, contact time, and temperature, on AB80 adsorption was studied in batch experiments. AB80 adsorption increased with increasing contact time, initial dye concentration, and temperature and with decreasing solution pH. Modeling of adsorption kinetics showed good agreement of experimental data with the pseudo-second-order kinetics model. The experimental equilibrium data for AB80 adsorption were evaluated for compliance with different two-parameter, three-parameter, and four-parameter isotherm models. The Langmuir isotherm model best described the AB80 adsorption equilibrium data. The thermodynamic data revealed that the AB80 adsorption process was endothermic and nonspontaneous. Kinetics, equilibrium, and thermodynamic results indicate that Cu-TiO2adsorbs AB80 by a chemical sorption reaction.

Abstract In the present paper, used cigarette filter ash was prepared and used as an active adsorbent to remove As(III) ions from aqueous solutions. The prepared adsorbent structure was identified by scanning electron microscopy analysis, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. The influence of contact time, pH, adsorbent dose and initial concentration of As(III) on the removal of As(III) was assessed. Several isotherm models were checked to illustrate the adsorption equilibrium. The adsorption equilibrium data adapted well with the Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity of 33.33 mg/g was acquired from the Langmuir isotherm. The calculated thermodynamic variables verified that the adsorption process is spontaneous and endothermic.

Non-activated and chemically activated oak shells were evaluated for their ability to remove Cu2+ ions from aqueous solutions. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of contact time, sorbent concentration, Cu2+ ion concentration and the pH of the solution on the sorption process. The Cu2+ ion uptake by oak shells increased with decreasing sorbent concentration or with an increase in Cu2+ ion concentration or solution pH. The fractional factorial design technique was applied in order to determine the average Cu2+ ion uptake, the contribution of each operating variable to the value of the uptake and the interaction among the operating variables when the sorbent type, sorbent concentration, Cu2+ ion concentration, pH, contact time and salt were all varied from one level to another. Application of this technique showed that the sorbent concentration had the largest influence on the value of the Cu2+ ion uptake followed by Cu2+ ion concentration and sorbent type. Interaction among the different operating variables played an important role in the adsorption process.

Abstract (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) modified magnetic graphene oxide was synthesized and applied in the adsorption of three heavy metals, Pb(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) from aqueous solution. An approach to prepare magnetic GO was adopted by using (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APTES) as a functionalizing agent on magnetic nanosilica coupled with GO to form the Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2/GO nanocomposite. FT-IR, XRD, BET, UV, VSM, SAXS, SEM and TEM were used to characterize the synthesized nanoadsorbents. Batch adsorption studies were conducted to investigate the effect of solution pH, initial metal ion concentration, adsorbent dosage and contact time. The maximum equilibrium time was found to be 30 min for Pb(II), Cd(II) and 60 min for Ni(II). The kinetics studies showed that the adsorption of Pb(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) onto Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2/GO followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics. All the adsorption equilibrium data were well fitted to Langmuir isotherm model and maximum monolayer adsorption capacity for Pb(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) were 13.46, 18.58 and 13.52 mgg-1, respectively. The Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2/GO adsorbents were reused for at least 7 cycles without the leaching of mineral core, showing the enhanced stability and potential application of Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2/GO adsorbents in water/wastewater treatment.

Poly-γ-glutamate/apatite (PGA-AP) nanoparticles were prepared by chemical coprecipitation method in the presence of various concentrations of poly-γ-glutamate (γ-PGA). Powder X-ray diffraction pattern and energy-dispersive spectroscopy revealed that the main crystal phase of PGA-AP was hydroxyapatite. The immobilization of γ-PGA on PGA-AP was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and the relative amount of γ-PGA incorporation into PGA-AP was determined by thermal gravimetric analysis. Dynamic light scattering measurements indicated that the particle size of PGA-AP nanoparticles increased remarkably with the decrease of γ-PGA content. The adsorption of aqueous Cu(II) onto the PGA-AP nanoparticles was investigated in batch experiments with varying contact time, solution pH and temperature. Results illustrated that the adsorption of Cu(II) was very rapid during the initial adsorption period. The adsorption capacity of PGA-AP nanoparticles for Cu(II) was increased with the increase in the γ-PGA content, solution pH and temperature. At a pH of 6 and 60 °C, a higher equilibrium adsorption capacity of about 74.80 mg/g was obtained. The kinetic studies indicated that Cu(II) adsorption onto PGA-AP nanoparticles obeyed well the pseudo-second order model. The Langmuir isotherm model was fitted well to the adsorption equilibrium data. The results indicated that the adsorption behavior of PGA-AP nanoparticles for Cu(II) was mainly a monolayer chemical adsorption process. The maximum adsorption capacity of PGA-AP nanoparticles was estimated to be 78.99 mg/g.

Abstract. In this study, the simultaneous adsorption characteristics of ammonium and phosphate from aqueous solution by calcium chloride-modified zeolite were investigated. Results showed that the adsorption kinetic data of ammonium and phosphate onto the calcium chloride-modified zeolite could be well described by a pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption equilibrium data of ammonium onto the calcium chloride-modified zeolite fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model better than the Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models. The phosphate removal efficiency of calcium chloride-modified zeolite increased with the initial concentration of ammonium in aqueous solution. The ammonium removal efficiency of calcium chloride-modified zeolite increased with increasing solution pH from 7.0 to 9.0, but decreased with increasing solution pH from 9.0 to 10.0. The phosphate removal efficiency of calcium chloride-modified zeolite increased dramatically with increasing solution pH from 7.0 to 9.0, but decreased with increasing solution pH from 9.0 to 10.0. The mechanism for the adsorption of ammonium onto the calcium chloride-modified zeolite was ions exchange, and the mechanism for the removal of phosphate by the calcium chloride-modified zeolite was chemical precipitation.

Abstract Adsorption of gliclazide from aqueous solutions with carbon-based adsorbents is the aim of this study. For this purpose, magnetic, versatile, and inexpensive magnetic activated carbon (MAC) and magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotube (MMWCNT) adsorbents have been developed. MAC and MMWCNT characterization were analyzed using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques. In order to find the optimum conditions in batch adsorption experiments, the effects of parameters such as adsorbent dose, gliclazide solution pH, contact time, temperature and presence of foreign ions were investigated. Parameters were calculated for adsorption isotherms using Langmuir and Freundlich models. The adsorption studies of MAC and MMWCNT materials with gliclazide were in accordance with the nonlinear Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models for all temperatures (298, 308, 318 K). The correlation coefficients of the Langmuir isotherm model are slightly higher than the Freundlich model. MAC adsorbent has maximum monolayer adsorption capacity at T=298 K (qmax=101.66 mg/g, R2=0.88) while MMWCNT has maximum monolayer adsorption capacity at T=308 K (qmax=71.59 mg/g, R2=0.90). For MAC and MMWCNT - Gliclazide adsorption systems, pseudo-first and secondorder kinetic models were examined and found to be more appropriate to the pseudo-secondorder kinetic model. The results showed that the MAC and MMWCNT could be could be promising adsorbents for gliclazide removal.

Adsorption of U (VI) from aqueous solutions was investigated using magnetically assisted chemical separation (MACS) process. In the present study, Triocthylamine (TOA) functionalized magnetite nanoparticles (TOAFMNPs) were applied as a novel adsorbent for adsorption of U (VI) from aqueous solutions. The effects of initial pH, Triocthylamine to magnetite nanoparticles weight ratio, amount of adsorbent, stirring time and initial U(VI) concentration on U(VI) adsorption efficiency were investigated by batch experiments. The adsorption of U(VI) using this adsorbent was pH dependent, and the optimal pH was 5.5. In kinetics studies, the adsorption equilibrium can be reach within 20 min., and the experimental data were well fitted by the pseudo-second-order model. The highest value of U(VI) adsorption (93.8%) was achieved in optimum conditions. The Langmuir isotherm model correlates well with the U(VI) adsorption equilibrium data for the concentration range 10-80 mg/l. The maximum U(VI) adsorption capacity onto adsorbent was 27.5 mg/g at room temperature. Present study suggests that TOAFMNPs could be employed as a potential adsorbent for U(VI) adsorption, and also could provide a simple and fast separation method for removal of U(VI) ion from solutions
