Clay is a natural material from crystalline silicate with layered structures, has high cation exchange capacity, and large surface area. These advantages can be used as an adsorbent for the removal of contaminants in aqueous solutions, such as heavy metals and dyes. In Indonesia, clays from Java, Sulawesi, and Sumatra islands have been used as adsorbent, furniture, and construction materials. Due to limited information about basic characteristics of clay from Kalimantan, this clay has not been utilized well. Therefore, natural clay from Kalimantan, especially in Central Kalimantan, was used as adsorbent of cationic dyes in this present study. However, the clay has difficulty for separating the solid phase from aqueous solution after adsorption process. To solve this problem, combining clay with magnetic material was opted. The objectives of this study are to synthesize the magnetic composite material from natural clay by coprecipitation method and to characterize the synthesized magnetic composite material using an x-ray diffraction method, transmission electron microscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer. The adsorption properties of the synthesized magnetic composite material were evaluated using rhodamine B and methylene blue dyes in aqueous solution. Before magnetic composite material was synthesized, the clay was previously being activated for removing impurities. The magnetic material formed in the structure of clay had magnetite with particle size of 2.75 nm and the magnetization value of 24.91emu/g. The adsorption capacities of natural clay, activated clay, and magnetic composite of clay in rhodamine B were 34.29, 76.27, and 81.46 mg/g, respectively, while in methylene blue were 30.25, 83.92, and 133.90 mg/g, respectively. These results suggested that magnetic composite of clay can increase the adsorption capacities against dyes and accelerate the separation of the adsorbent solid phase from aqueous solution with largest adsorption capacity on methylene blue dye.

A batch adsorption system was applied to study the adsorption of methylene blue from aqueous solution by Iraqi bentonite and treated bentonite with different amount of zinc oxide (ZnO). The adsorption capacities of methylene blue onto bentonite were evaluated. The equilibrium between liquid and solid phase was described by Langmuir model better than the Freundlich model. Langmuir and Freundlich constants have been determined. The separation factor or equilibrium parameter, RL which is used to predict if an adsorption system is favourable or unfavourable was calculated for all cases.

Background:: Dyes have been a blessing to the mankind owing to its numerous applications in several industries ranging from the textile, food, pharmaceuticals, paper, leather and many more. Al the same time these dye poses a problem for mankind if they exceed their limit. This review is all about the determination and extraction of dyes in different matrices. Introduction:: Methylene blue, rhodamine B and crystal violet are the three dyes discussed in this review article. All the three discussed dyes are cationic in nature and poses a threat to the human health if not detected and proper remediation step be taken if exceeding the limit. Methods:: The review article mentioned different analytical methods and different extraction techniques involved in the determination of dyes. Results:: Almost all the analytical methods reported involve proper extraction of the analyte which too finds a place in this review article. Spectrophotometric and electrochemical methods are cost effective method although the former is less sensitive than the later. LC method and LC MS method are capable of simultaneously determining a number of dyes Conclusion:: This review article also offers a compilation of different mobile phase combinations that has been used for the quantitative analysis of these three dyes. The article also contains listing of different solvents for the liquid-liquid extraction and different types of the sorbent materials used during solid phase extraction of the reviewed dyes.

A novel organic-inorganic PAA@Fe-Si composite material was synthesized by acrylic acid and mesoporous iron-incorporated material and used as an efficient and specific adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue (MB), a cationic dye from aqueous solution. The properties of the composite material were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared and thermogravimetric. The effects of initial solution pH, adsorbent dosage, and contact time on MB adsorption and temperature have been investigated. The results showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of PAA@Fe-Si reached 587mg/g at 298 K, which was much better than pure Fe-Si adsorbent.

Abstract Microencapsulation technology was adopted to prepare the novel mineral-based mesoporous microsphere (MBMM) for the removal of dye contaminants from water. Field emission scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller zeta potential analysis, and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry were used to investigate the microstructure characteristics of MBMM and its changes in the functional groups before and after adsorption. Batch experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of calcination temperature, initial concentration, pH, contact temperature, and time on the adsorption behavior of rhodamine B and methylene blue onto MBMM. The results indicated that the prepared MBMM had a hollow structure and mesoporous surface, which was beneficial to improving its adsorption capacity. The maximum adsorption capacities of rhodamine B and methylene blue onto MBMM prepared at calcination temperature 500 °C were 57.79 mg g−1 and 55.94 mg g−1 under the conditions of initial concentration 300 mg L−1, dosage 0.1 g, pH 7.0, adsorption temperature 55 °C, and adsorption time 7 h. The results showed that the calcining treatment was beneficial to the formation of mesoporous microspheres, improving their adsorption capacities. The adsorption process was endothermic reaction, and electrostatic attraction and hydrogen bonding were the driving forces of the reaction.
