A continuous adsorption study in a fixed-bed column was carried out using Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes derived from Rosmarinus officinalis oil as an adsorbent for removing the textile dye Acid blue 40 from an aqueous solution. The adsorbent, MWNTs were prepared from Rosmarinus officinalis oil as a precursor to Fe/Mo catalyst supported on silica at 650 ºC under N2 atmosphere by spray pyrolysis process characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Transmission Electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. The effects of adsorbent bed height (2–6 cm), initial ion concentration (20– 60 mg/L), and flow rate (10–30 mL/min) on the column performance were analyzed. The breakthrough curve was analyzed using the mathematical models of Thomas, Yoon-Nelson, and bed depth service time. The Thomas model at different conditions defined the behaviors of the breakthrough curves. The bed depth service time model showed good agreement with the experimental data. The high values of correlation coefficients (R2 0.9875) obtained indicate the validity of the bed depth service time model for the present column system.

A continuous adsorption study in a fixed-bed column was carried out using a chitosan–glutaraldehyde biosorbent for the removal of the textile dye Direct Blue 71 from an aqueous solution. The biosorbent was prepared from shrimp shells and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The effects of chitosan–glutaraldehyde bed height (3–12 cm), inlet Direct Blue 71 concentration (15–50 mg l−1), and feed flow rate (1–3 ml min−1) on the column performance were analyzed. The highest bed capacity of 343.59 mg Direct Blue 71 per gram of chitosan–glutaraldehyde adsorbent was obtained using 1 ml min−1 flow rate, 50 mg l−1 inlet Direct Blue 71 concentration, and 3 cm bed height. The breakthrough curve was analyzed using the Adams–Bohart, Thomas, and bed depth service time mathematical models. The behaviors of the breakthrough curves were defined by the Thomas model at different conditions. The bed depth service time model showed good agreement with the experimental data, and the high values of correlation coefficients (R2 ≥ 0.9646) obtained indicate the validity of the bed depth service time model for the present column system.

Activated Carbon Fiber was use to treat aniline wastewater. Influencing factors,such as pH value ,salinity were studied and dynamic conditions of concentration and flow adsorption effects were also studied. Adsorption isotherm, dynamic curves and dynamic adsorption breakthrough curve were drawn. The results indicated that the salinity of the solution will affect the adsorption results and concentration in the same circumstances, time was 9 min, pH neutral in better conditions adsorption, adsorption capacities were determined to be 72 mg/g .Under dynamic conditions,with increasing concentration and velocity, the initial penetration point ahead.

Improvement of biodegradability of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) by ozonation does not always induce improvement of DOC removal and extension of activated carbon service time, because most of biodegradable DOC increased by ozonation is adsorbable on activated carbon. The objective of this study is to clarify the fate of the biodegradable DOC increased by preozonation on biological activated carbon (BAC) and to evaluate effects of preozonation on BAC performance for the removal of DOC and extension of activated carbon service time. DOC breakthrough curve for BAC process obviously shifted to the right by combination with ozonation, indicating that preozonation extended BAC service time. Higher removal of DOC was noted in the ozone-BAC process than the BAC process after saturation with DOC. Ozonation increased biodegradable DOC by 2.89 mg·l−1 (31%). Although the increased biodegradable DOC had possibilities to be removed both by adsorption and biodegradation, most of it was removed by biodegradation on BAC which resulted in longer BAC service time. Biodegradation of the increased biodegradable DOC was responsible for the higher removal of DOC after saturation with DOC in the ozone-BAC process.

The adsorption of a number of basic dyes on to bagasse pith has been studied using fixed-bed adsorption. Pith is a waste material produced from the crushed cane (depithing operation) during the extraction of sugar from sugar cane. The results show that pith can adsorb basic dyes and breakthrough curves are reported at various heights in the fixed beds. The bed depth service time model has been used to assess the results.

Objective: ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized using wet impregnation method, and activated carbon from rice straw (RS) prepared through chemical route. Methods: The nano-composites ZnO-AC series were prepared with different ZnO:AC ratio of 10, 20, 50, and 70% to optimize the zinc oxide nanoparticles used. The obtained composites were characterized by FE-SEM, XRD, SBET, and optical techniques then used for the photo-degradation of Malachite green dye (MG) under visible light. Results: It was found that 10ZnO-AC exhibited excellent visible light photo-catalytic performance. The ·OH radicals’ formation is matching with photo-activity of the prepared composites. The photo-degradation efficiency of MG increased from 63% to 93%, when the 10ZnO-AC photocatalyst amount was increased from 0.5 to 6 g/L. Conclusion: The GC-MS technique was used to analyze the intermediates formed; up to 15 kinds of chemicals were identified as the degradation products.
