Abstract Phosphonates are widely used in various industries. It is desirable to remove them before discharging phosphonate-containing wastewater. This study describes a large number of batch experiments with adsorbents that are likely suitable for the removal of phosphonates. For this, adsorption isotherms for four different granular ferric hydroxide (GFH) adsorbents were determined at different pH values in order to identify the best performing material. Additionally, the influence of temperature was studied for this GFH. A maximum loading for nitrilotrimethylphosphonic acid (NTMP) was found to be ∼12 mg P/g with an initial concentration of 1 mg/L NTMP-P and a contact time of 7 days at room temperature. Then, the adsorption of six different phosphonates was investigated as a function of pH. It was shown that GFH could be used to remove all investigated phosphonates from water and, with an increasing pH, the adsorption capacity decreased for all six phosphonates. Finally, five adsorption–desorption cycles were carried out to check the suitability of the material for multiple re-use. Even after five cycles, the adsorption process still performed well.

Removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions under different conditions was investigated using either clay (montmorillonite) or micelle-clay complex, the last obtained by adsorbing critical micelle concentration of octadecyltrimethylammonium ions onto montmorillonite. Batch experiments showed the effects of contact time, adsorbent dosage, and pH on the removal efficiency of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions. Langmuir adsorption isotherm fitted the experimental data giving significant results. Filtration experiments using columns filled with micelle-clay complex mixed with sand were performed to assess Cr(VI) removal efficiency under continuous flow at different pH values. The micelle-clay complex used in this study was capable of removing Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions without any prior acidification of the sample. Results demonstrated that the removal effectiveness reached nearly 100% when using optimal conditions for both batch and continuous flow techniques.

The natural dye extracted from Swietenia mahagoni was applied to silk batik. Mahagoni bark is known to contain dyestuff components such as flavonoids and tannins. The dye compound was extracted using water at pH values of 6 (original pH extract), pH 2 (acid), and pH 12 (base) at 100 °C for 1 hour. Variation of extraction pH values was carried out to determine the influence of temperature on the results of the extract. Batik dyeing was carried out at room temperature using dye products. The pre-mordanting and post-mordanting used were alum (Al2(SO4)3.K2SO4.24H2O). The results showed that the dye product extracted in alkaline pH shows a high amount of tannins and flavonoids and the ability to color the silk batik better. The color direction is reddish-brown. The pH values of extraction do not affect the results of the colorfastness to washing test, which is on 4-5 (good) scale. A B S T R A KPewarna alami yang diekstrak dari mahoni (Swietenia mahagoni) diaplikasikan pada kain batik sutra.

Abstract To make the adsorption process more economic and environmental friendly, it is necessary to study desorption and reutilization of the adsorbents. In the present study, the effectiveness of natural pumice in removal of iron from aqueous solution was investigated in several sorption-desorption cycles. The desorption characteristics of previously adsorbed iron ions on natural pumice were tested by various desorbing agents such as HCl, NaOH and aquadest. Among them, HCl showed the highest desorption efficiency (37.89%) with 0.1 M of concentration and 60 min of contact time. The removal efficiency of iron ions in reused natural pumice could be maintained up to 90% in the third cycle of adsorption. The results indicate that although complete desorption was not achieved, natural pumice from Sungai Pasak, West Sumatra, Indonesia, can be sufficiently reused up to three cycles of adsorption-desorption.

Abstract In this work, the sawdust of vine wood (VW) was treated with sulfuric acid and used to adsorb methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solutions via a batch adsorption process. The characteristics of the adsorbent were determined by various analytical techniques such as Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer−Emmett−Teller (BET) N2 adsorption−desorption isotherms. The effects of various experimental parameters including sulfuric acid concentration, particle size of the adsorbent, pH of the solution, contact time, initial concentration, adsorbent dosage and temperature on adsorption of MB by activating sawdust were systematically investigated. The experimental results showed that the adsorption efficiency was increased with contact time and adsorbent dosage. The maximum removal efficiency was found after 180 min of solid/liquid contact with adsorbent doses of 1 g/l for sawdust. The isotherm and kinetic experimental data for MB adsorption on VW sawdust were best-fitted by Langmuir models and Pseudo-second-order, respectively. The calculated values of the entropy (ΔS°), enthalpy (ΔH°) and Gibbs energy (ΔG°) indicated that the adsorption process was exothermic in nature. These results suggest that the activated sawdust can be employed as a low-cost and environmentally friendly adsorbent for the treatment of wastewaters containing dyes.

This study deals with utilization of milled stems and leaves of carrot (Daucus carota) for the adsorptive removal of Pb(II) and Cd(II)from the aqueous solution. Carrot was bought in the local grocery, it was dried at the laboratory temperature and milled. Preparedmaterial was analysed by the infrared spectrometry which confirms good structural homogeneity of the sample. Kinetic measurementswere performed for estimation of adsorption equilibrium time. Equilibrium of Pb(II) adsorption was established after 6 hours of contact time, equilibrium of Cd(II) adsorption was established after 24 hours of contact time. The isotherms’ measurements were realizedwith the contact time 24 hours for the estimation of adsorption capacities of the studied sorbent. Adsorption capacities were around47 mg/g for Cd(II) and 154 mg/g for Pb(II). Changes of pH values of the sorption solutions were negligible but some amount of Ca(II),Mg(II), K(I) and Na(I) ions was released to the solution during adsorption process. Daucus carota stems and leaves exhibit good sorption capacities and they could be utilized for adsorptive removal of Pb(II) and Cd(II) ions from the aqueous solutions.

Peat waters were abundant in the West Tanjung Jabung Regency of Jambi Province. Peat water contains manganese metal ion concentration that exceeds the clean water quality standard. Previous studies have been conducted to reduce levels of manganese in peat water, but the results have not been significant. This study aims to reduce levels of Manganese metal in peat water using the composition of Bentonite and Biochar. The adsorption process was carried out at room temperature (29 °C) with a stirring of 200 rpm. Some parameters measured were optimum pH of adsorption, optimum contact time and the best combination between Bentonite and Biochar. Manganese ion concentration in solution was measured using atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The results of this study indicate that the optimum conditions for removing manganese ion at pH 5 and contact time 40 minutes. Tests on artificial solutions using 0.2 grams of biochar showed Mn ion removal of 42.91% (C0 = 100 mg/L, Ce = 57.09 mg/L, V = 100 mL). The best combination obtained in Bentonite: Biochar (1:2) with a mass of 0.080 gr and 0.170 gr, respectively, which able to remove 91.29% manganese ions in peat water.

Sunset yellow (SY) FCF is a hazardous azo dye pollutant found in food processing effluent. This study investigates the use of diatomaceous earth with chitosan (DE@C) as a modified adsorbent for the removal of SY from wastewater. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results indicate the importance of functional groups during the adsorption of SY. The obtained N2 adsorption–desorption isotherm values accord well with IUPAC type II. Our calculations determined a surface area of 69.68 m2 g−1 for DE@C and an average pore diameter of 4.85 nm. Using response surface methodology, optimized conditions of process variables for dye adsorption were achieved. For the adsorption of SY onto DE@C, this study establishes mathematical models for the optimization of pH, contact time and initial dye concentration. Contact time plays a greater role in the adsorption process than either pH or initial dye concentration. According to the adjusted correlation coefficient (adj-R2 > 0.97), the models used here are suitable for illustration of the adsorption process. Theoretical experimental conditions included a pH of 2.40, initial dye concentration of 113 mg L−1 and 30.37 minutes of contact time. Experimental values for the adsorption rate (92.54%) were close to the values predicted by the models (95.29%).

<p>This paper describes the adsorption of Al3+ ions from aqueous solutions, by natural clay (from Sakarya's Yenigün district) and coconut shell modified by means of acid treatment. Batch experiments were carried out to determine the effect of various factors such as initial pH (4-9), temperature (20, 40, 70 oC), initial concentration (10 to 200 mg L-1) and contact time (1-120 minute) on the adsorption process. The adsorption experiments were performed at a temperature of 20 ±2 oC), at 200 rpm agitation rate, with an adsorbent level of 1 g L-1, produced 98.95% (at pH 6) and 92.83% (at pH 7) maximum Al3+ removal efficiency for clay and coconut shell based adsorbents respectively. Furthermore, the process was found to be exothermic for clay and endothermic for coconut. XRF and XRD analyses of the clay variety used in adsorption analyses revealed it to be saponite clay, within the larger group of smectite clay minerals. The application of Langmuir revealed maximum adsorption capacity of 149.25 mg g-1 for natural clay adsorbent (NCA), and 120.482 mg g-1 for coconut shell adsorbent (CSA). Moreover, adsorption kinetics were found to be consistent with the second order kinetics (R2 &gt; 0.95). The result shows that, natural clay and coconut shell adsorbents are effective adsorbents to remove Al3+ from aqueous solutions with good adsorption rate (&gt;92.8%).</p>

The study was carried out to check the potential of water hyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes, to remove chromium (VI) in batch process. Powder was prepared from dried Eichhornia (particle size 0.3 mm and 1.0 mm). The influence of various parameters on adsorption (pH, dose, contact time, temperature) was studied. The Cr(VI) removal was 60.9% and 79.2% for 1.00 mm and 0.3 mm particles of Eichhornia treated (ET) after 30 min contact time and 52.7% and 53.4% for 1.00 mm and 0.3 mm particles of Eichhornia untreated (EU) after 75 min contact time respectively. The optimum pH for both adsorbents was found to be 2.0 and optimum dose was found to be 0.4 g 100 ml−1 for ET and 0.6 g 100 ml−1 for EU. Maximum adsorption occurred at room temperature (26 ± 1°C) in case of both ET and EU, respectively. The adsorption process followed the first order mechanism as well as the Langmuir isotherm. Finally, it was concluded that the adsorbent prepared from Eichhornia is very effective in removing Cr(VI) and it can be used for industrial wastewater treatment.

Phosphorus is one of the most important nutrients affecting the eutrophication, so its treatment is the most important thing that must be taken before wastewater is dumped into water bodies. This paper presents a study on phosphorous removal by adsorption with oven-dried-alum-sludge (ODAS) that was collected from Baqubah treatment plant (Iraq) and preheat at 105 ° C, cool down at room temperature, and crushed into small particles of (0.8-5) mm. The effect of ODAS studied with doses of 1.25-20 g/l and found that the higher the dose of adsorbent, the higher the percentage of phosphorous removal. Contact time also studied its effect on phosphorous removal and found that it has a clear effect on the adsorption process, as the percentage of phosphorous removal efficiency increased with increasing contact time. The optimum dosage of ODAS was 10 g/l and contact time 180 min with phosphorous removal efficiency (98%, 99%, 97%, and 97%) for initial concentration of (5, 10, 15, and 20) mg/l of phosphorus.
