Within the study, magnetic/polyetherimide-acrylonitrile composite nanofibers membrane with effective adsorption of nickel ions in aqueous solution were established, through a simple electrospinning method. Iron oxide nanoparticles were stirred and ultrasonically dispersed into polyetherimide-acrylonitrile solution for homogenous suspension. Afterwards, the polyetherimide-acrylonitrile solution with uniform suspension of iron nanoparticles was used in electrospinning machine to produce uniform and smooth nanofibers composite membrane. The confirmation of nanoparticles incorporation into polymeric membrane were characterized by SEM, EDX, FTIR, XRD and nanoparticles aqueous stability through leach out test. The high adsorption capability of the composite membranes on nickel ions was mainly attributed to the combination of magnetic nanoparticles, polyetherimide-acrylonitrile matrix and nano-sized structure of membrane. Membrane containing magnetic nanoparticles demonstrate the maximum adsorption capabilities (102 mg/g) for nickel ions from aqueous solution. Different kinetics and isotherm models were applied to understand the adsorption behavior during adsorption process, amongst them pseudo second order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm model were well fitted. Additionally, EDX, FTIR and XRD results confirmed the presence of nickel ions onto membrane after adsorption process. Polyetherimide-acrylonitrile composite nanofibers membranes containing magnetic nanoparticles may use as an environmentally-friendly and non-toxic adsorbent for the removal of nickel ions in aqueous medium due to its ease of preparation, easy to use and stability in aqueous medium by retaining the nanoparticles inside the nanofibers membranes.

Bone char was prepared from bovine bone for the removal of methylene blue from aqueous solution. The effects of particle size, contact time, and adsorption temperature on the removal rate of methylene blue were investigated. It was found that bone char particle size had an insignificant effect. The equilibration time was found at approximately 80 min. The removal rate decreased with an increase in temperature. The intraparticle diffusion was the main rate-limiting step. The experimental data was analyzed by kinetic, isotherm, and thermodynamic equations. The results show that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Freundlich, Temkin, and Dubinin–Kaganer–Radushkevich isotherm models are true of the adsorption process. The spontaneous and exothermic ion-exchange adsorption process was certified by the negative values of free energy change and enthalpy change, and 13.29 kJ mol−1 of adsorption energy.

In the present study, adsorption of copper (II) ions from aqueous solution by Activated Zizyphus Jujuba shell Nano Carbon was investigated under batch mode. The influence of solution pH, sorbent dose, copper concentration, contact time and temperature was studied. The copper adsorption was favored with maximum adsorption at pH 6.5. Sorption equilibrium time was observed in 60 min. The equilibrium adsorption data were correlated with Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, Dubinin-Radushkevich, Hurkins-Jura, Halsay, Radlich-Peterson, Jovanovic and BET isotherm models. The kinetics of the adsorption process was tested by pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second order, Elovich and Intra-particle diffusion models. It was shown that adsorption of copper could be described by the pseudo-second order kinetic model. Thermodynamic parameters such as Gibbs free energy (ΔG0), the enthalpy (ΔH0) and the entropy change of sorption (ΔS0) have also been evaluated and it has been found that the adsorption process was spontaneous, feasible and endothermic in nature. The results indicated that Activated Zizyphus Jujuba shell Nano Carbon can be used as an effective and low-cost adsorbent to remove copper (II) from aqueous solution.

A sorbent was prepared by charring sugarcane bagasse (SCB) and used to remove nitrobenzene from aqueous solution. The surface area, morphology, and functional groups of the adsorbent were characterized by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller method, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy. Analysis indicated that oxygen-containing functional groups, such as C = O, –OH, –COOH, and C–O–C, may be involved in the adsorption process. The adsorption of nitrobenzene was investigated under different operating conditions, including adsorbent dosage, initial nitrobenzene concentration, pH, and contact duration. Four kinetic models were applied to describe the adsorption process. Results revealed that the optimal sorbent mass was 0.3 g/50 mL at pH 5.8 and 25°C. The kinetic data obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model ( R2 > 0.9965). In addition, Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were employed to describe the adsorption equilibrium. The Freundlich model presented better fitting for the adsorption equilibrium, suggesting that the carbonized SCB surface had a heterogeneous nature. The maximum adsorption capacities calculated by the Langmuir model were 38.27, 41.72, and 44.70 mg/g at 25°C, 35°C, and 45°C, respectively. The calculated values of ΔG0 and ΔH0 indicated the spontaneous and exothermic nature of the adsorption process at the considered temperature range. The adsorption mechanism of nitrobenzene onto carbonized SCB cannot be described either as physical adsorption or chemisorption. This study demonstrated that SCB biochar is a potential sorbent for removing nitrobenzene from aqueous solutions.

In this study, a magnetic/polyetherimide-acrylonitrile composite nanofiber membrane with effective adsorption of nickel ions in an aqueous solution was created using a simple electrospinning method. Iron oxide nanoparticles (NPs) were stirred and ultrasonically dispersed into a polyetherimide-acrylonitrile solution to create a homogenous NPs suspension, which was placed in an electrospinning machine to produce a uniform and smooth nanofiber composite membrane. Nanoparticle incorporation into this membrane was confirmed using scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and NPs aqueous stability from a leaching test. The high adsorption capability of the membrane on nickel ions was attributed to the combination of magnetic NPs, polyetherimide-acrylonitrile matrix, and the nanostructure of the membrane. A membrane containing magnetic NPs demonstrated the maximum adsorption capabilities (102 mg/g) of nickel ions in an aqueous solution. Various kinetic and isotherm models were applied to understand the adsorption behavior, such as pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models. A polyetherimide-acrylonitrile composite nanofiber membrane containing magnetic NPs could be used as an environmentally friendly and nontoxic adsorbent for the removal of nickel ions in an aqueous medium due to its ease of preparation and use and stability in aqueous mediums.

The present work dedicated to the removal of Cr(VI) ions in aqueous solution onto a synthetized TiO2-AC composite. Composite characterization was carried out by determining of the point of zero charge pHpzc, iodine number, methylene blue index and FT-IR spectra. Adsorption experiments were conducted in batch mode and the influences of composite quantity, contact time, Cr(VI) ions concentration, ionic strength, and pH were studied. The highest adsorption were obtained in acid medium, with lowest adsorbent quantity (0.01 g) and initial solution concentration of 10 ppm. The results of kinetic studies revealed that Cr(VI) adsorption process on TiO2-AC composite followed pseudo second-order kinetic model. Non-linear regression was applied to equilibrium data and Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich, and Temkin isotherm models were used for evaluation of adsorption parameters. The best-fitting was estimated based on correlation coefficient R2 value and the calculation of error deviations between experimental and predicted equilibrium adsorption data, using non-linear analysis. The results showed that Freundlich model describing adsorption process the best. The isotherm parameters from Langmuir and Freundlich models revealed that Cr(VI) adsorption mechanism on the composite is linear, spontaneous, and endothermic follows chemisorption process.

The removal of Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions from aqueous medium was studied using potato peels biomass. The adsorption process was evaluated using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The Vibrational band of the potato peels was studied using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The adsorption process was carried out with respect to concentration, time, pH, particle size and the thermodynamic evaluation of the process was carried at temperatures of 30, 40, 50 and 60(0C), respectively. The FTIR studies revealed that the potato peels was composed of –OH, -NH, –C=N, –C=C and –C-O-C functional groups. The optimum removal was obtained at pH 8 and contact time of 20 min. The adsorption process followed Freundlich adsorption and pseudo second-order kinetic models with correlation coefficients (R2) greater than 0.900. The equilibrium adsorption capacity showed that Pb(II) ion was more adsorbed on the surface of the potato peels biomass versus Cd (II) ion (200.91 mg/g > 125.00 mg/g). The thermodynamic studies indicated endothermic, dissociative mechanism and spontaneous adsorption process. This study shows that sweet potato peels is useful as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of Cd(II) and Pb(II) ions from aqueous medium.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the feasibility of phenol adsorption from aqueous solution by Pinus massoniana biochar. Adsorption conditions, including contact time, initial phenol concentration, adsorbent dosage, strength of salt ions and pH, have been investigated by batch experiments. Equilibrium can be reached in 24 h for phenol from 50 to 250 mg• L-1. The optimum pH value for this kind of biochar is 5.0. The amount of phenol adsorbed per unit decreases with the increase in adsorbent dosage. The existence of salt ions makes negligible influence on the equilibrium adsorption capacity. The experimental data is analyzed by the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models. Equilibrium data fits well to the Freundlich model. Adsorption kinetics models are deduced and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model provides a good correlation for the adsorbent process. The results show that the Pinus massoniana biochar can be utilized as an effective adsorption material for the removal of phenol from aqueous solution.

This investigation was conducted to evaluate the adsorption capacity of nanoparticles of cellulose origin. Nanoparticles were synthesized by acid hydrolysis of microcrystalline cellulose/cellulose acetate using 64% H3PO4 and characterized using FTIR, XRD, TGA-DTGA, BET and SEM analysis. Adsorption kinetics of Pb (II) ions in aqueous solution was investigated and the effect of initial concentration, pH, time, adsorbent dosage and solution temperature. The results showed that adsorption increased with increasing concentration with removal efficiencies of 60% and 92.99% for Azeh2 and Azeh10 respectively for initial lead concentration of 3 mg/g. The effects of contact time showed that adsorption maximum was attained within 24h of contact time. The maximum adsorption capacity and removal efficiency were achieved at pH6. Small dose of adsorbent had better performance. The kinetics of adsorption was best described by the pseudo-second-Order model while the adsorption mechanism was chemisorption and pore diffusion based on intra-particle diffusion model. The isotherm model was Freundlich. Though, all tested isotherm models relatively showed good correlation coefficients ranging from 0.969-1.000. The adsorption process was exothermic for Azeh-TDI, with a negative value of -12.812 X 103 KJ/mol. This indicates that the adsorption process for Pb by Azeh-TDI was spontaneous. Adsorption by Azeh2 was endothermic in nature.

Abstract This study describes the adsorption of Cu (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) ions from wastewater on Vigna radiata husk biomass. The ability of adsorbent to capture the metal ions has been found to be in the order of Ni (II)>Co (II) and Cu (II) depending upon the size and nature of metal ions to be adsorbed. It has been observed that percentage removal of Cu (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) ions increases with increase of adsorbent dosage, contact time and pH of the medium but up to a certain extent. Maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) for Cu (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) ions has been found to be 11.05, 15.04 and 19.88 mg/g, respectively, under optimum conditions of adsorbent dosage, contact time and pH of the medium. Langmuir model best fits the adsorption process with R2 value approaches to unity for all metal ions as compared to other models because adsorption sites are seemed to be equivalent and only monolayer adsorption may occur as a result of binding of metal ion with a functional moiety of adsorbent. Pseudo second order kinetic model best interprets the adsorption process of Cu (II), Co (II) and Ni (II) ions. Thermodynamic parameters such as negative value of Gibbs energy (∆G°) gives information about feasibility and spontaneity of the process. Adsorption process was found to be endothermic for Cu (II) ions while exothermic for Co (II) and Ni (II) ions as signified by the value of enthalpy change (∆H°). Husk biomass was recycled three times for removal of Ni (II) from aqueous medium to investigate its recoverability and reusability. Moreover V. radiata husk biomass has a potential to extract Cu (II) and Ni (II) from electroplating wastewater to overcome the industrial waste water pollution.
