This Research investigated the adsorption capacity of locally prepared adsorbents from Egg shells for the removal of fluoride ion in well water. It evaluated the performance of these adsorbents calcinated at 3000C and modified with 1.0M HNO3 (trioxonitrate (v)) acid. Batch adsorber was used to allow for interaction between adsorbent (grounded Egg shells) with water containing fluoride ion. The batch experiment was performed with particle size of 2.12 contact time (60, 120, 180, 240, 300min), mass dosage (5g, 10g, 15g, 20g) and temperature (250C, 300C, 400C, 500C). The modified adsorbent was characterized to determine the physiochemical properties of grounded Egg shells (GE). Also the chemical composition of the modified adsorbent was analyzed to determine the percentage of calcium element required for the uptake of the fluoride ions in water for calcium as 39.68% for grounded Egg shells (GE). Percentage adsorption increased with increase in contact time, mass dosage and temperature for the adsorbent. The adsorption capacity was also determined which also increased with increase in contact time, temperature but decreased with increase in mass dosage at constant time of 60minutes. The pseudo first-order, pseudo second order and intraparticle diffusion kinetic models were fitted into the experimental results. The results obtained indicated that the pseudo first order and intraparticle diffusion models for the grounded Egg shells (GE) reasonably described the adsorption process very well whereas the pseudo second order model was not suitable for a calcinations temperature of 3000C and particle size of 2.12m. The adsorption isotherms were obtained from equilibrium experiment Performed at temperature of 25, 35, 45 and 550C. The result showed that Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm fitted perfectly the experimental data. However, the negative values of Gibb’s free energy indicated that adsorption was favourable and the positive enthalpy change H0 revealed that adsorption process was endothermic while the positive value of the entropy change signified increased randomness with adsorption.

Diazinon and chlorpyrifos are two common organophosphorus poisons to fight the pests in Iran. The removal of these poisons from water by thermosensitive nanosphere polymer (TNP), synthesized from the copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide and 3-allyloxy-1,2-propanediol, was investigated. The effect of pH, contact time, and the initial concentration on the removal amount was studied. The highest removal amount of these poisons by TNP occurred at pH 7. The contact time increase improves the removal amount and the equilibrium contact time for diazinon and chlorpyrifos was 10 and 18 min, respectively. For low concentration of less than 50 mgL−1it was shown that removal capacity remains above 95%. The initial concentration above 50 mgL−1decreased the removal amount, in which chlorpyrifos showed a greater decrease. The kinetic data has been checked using pseudo first-order, pseudo second-order, and intraparticle diffusion equations. The intraparticle diffusion model had the best conformability for the adsorption process.

Abstract Camellia oleifera shell-based activated carbon (COSAC) was prepared by H3PO4 activation method and further used to remove U(VI) from the aqueous solution in a batch system. This research examined the influence of various factors affecting U(VI) removal, including contact time, pH, initial U(VI) concentration, and temperature. The results showed that the U(VI) adsorption capacity and removal efficiency reached 71.28 mg/g and 89.1% at the initial U(VI) concentration of 160 mg/L, temperature of 298 K, pH 5.5, contact time of 60 min, and COSAC dosage of 2.0 g/L. The pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion equations were used to identify the optimum model that can describe the U(VI) adsorption kinetics. The pseudo-second-order kinetics model performed better in characterizing the adsorption system compared with the pseudo-first-order and intraparticle diffusion models. Isotherm data were also discussed with regard to the appropriacy of Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Dubinin–Radushkevich models. The Langmuir model described the U(VI) adsorption process the best with a maximum adsorption capacity of 78.93 mg/g. Thermodynamic analysis (ΔG0 < 0, ΔH0 > 0, and ΔS0 > 0) indicated that the U(VI) adsorption process is endothermic and spontaneous. All the results imply that COSAC has a promising application in the removal or recovery of U(VI) from aqueous solutions.

In the present paper, the adsorption characteristics of aniline onto KSF montmorillonite from aqueous solution were investigated. Experiments were conducted at various pH values, temperatures, ionic strength and surfactant concentrations. Pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion models were adopted to investigate the rate parameters, and the pseudo-second-order equation was proved to be able to successfully predict whole process. Optimal adsorption pH was determined at 3.6. Among the selected models (linear, Langmuir, Freundlich, DR (Dubinin–Radusckevich) models), linear and DR models were found to be better fit the experimental data, which revealed the physisorption nature of the adsorption process. Meanwhile, with the increase of reaction temperatures, the adsorption capacity decreased. The results of the calculated thermodynamic parameters demonstrated that the adsorption was an exothermic, spontaneous and unfavorable process.

Eggshell, a waste material from food manufacturing, can be used as a potential ecofriendly adsorbent for the elimination of textile dyes from water solutions. The adsorption process was evaluated varying factors such as initial dye load, contact time, pH, quantity of adsorbent, and temperature. The initial dye load (Direct Blue 78) was in the range of 25–300 mg/L. The kinetics of adsorption were analyzed using different models, such as pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion model. Also, the experimental data at equilibrium were studied using Freundlich, Langmuir, and Temkin isotherms. The kinetics followed pseudo-second-order, then pseudo-first-order, and finally the model of intraparticle diffusion. The results obtained for data at equilibrium follow the order: Freundlich > Langmuir > Temkin. The adsorption equilibrium showed a maximum capacity of adsorption (qmax) of 13 mg/g at pH 5, and using 0.5 g of eggshell. Dye adsorption was enhanced with increasing temperatures. The thermodynamic study revealed the spontaneity and endothermic nature of the adsorption process. The desorption study shows that the eggshell could be reused in different adsorption/desorption cycles. A novel advanced oxidation process could degrade more than 95% of the dye. The results show that eggshell is a waste material useful to remove hazardous dyes from wastewater, which may alleviate the environmental impact of dyeing industries.

Abstract Our recently tailored and fully characterized poly (AN)-starch nanoparticle graft copolymer having 60.1 G.Y. % was used as a starting substrate for copper ions removal from waste water effluent after chemical modification with hydroxyl amine via oximation reaction. This was done to change the abundant nitrile groups in the above copolymer into amidoxime one and the resultant poly (amidoxime) resin was used as adsorbent for copper ions. The resin was characterized qualitatively via rapid vanadium ion test and instrumentally by FT-IR spectra and SEM morphological analysis to confirm the presence of amidoxime groups. The adsorption capacity of the resin was done using the batch technique, whereas the residual copper ions content in the filtrate before and after adsorption was measured using atomic adsorption spectrometry. It was found that the maximum adsorption capacity of poly (amidoxime) resin was 115.2 mg/g at pH 7, 400ppm copper ions concentration and 0.25 g adsorbent at room temperature. The adsorption, kinetics and isothermal study of the process is scrutinized using different variables, such as pH, contact time, copper ion concentration and adsorbent dosage. Different kinetics models comprising the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order have been applied to the experimental data to envisage the adsorption kinetics. It was found from kinetic study that pseudo-second-order rate equation was better than pseudo-first-order supporting the formation of chemisorption process. While, in case of isothermal study, the examination of calculated correlation coefficient (R2) values showed that the Langmuir model provide the best fit to experimental data than Freundlich one.

AbstractThe present study investigates the removal of copper ions (Cu (II)) from aqueous solution using chemically treated rice husk (TRH). The chemical treatment was carried out using NaOH solution and the effect of contact time (tc), adsorbent dosage (Dad), initial Cu (II) concentration ([Cu]i), and temperature (T) on the percentage removals of Cu (II) (%RCu) were investigated. Different analytical techniques (FTIR, SEM, and EDX) were used to confirm the adsorption (ads) of Cu (II) onto the TRH. The ads kinetics was tested against pseudo-first-order (PFO) and pseudo-second-order (PSO) models as well as Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. Treating RH with NaOH altered the surface and functional groups, and on the surface of RH, the ionic ligands with high electro-attraction to Cu increased and thus improved the removal efficiency. The %RCu decreased by increasing the [Cu]i and increased by increasing the ct, Dad, and T. Up to 97% Cu removal was achieved in ct of 30 min using Dad of 0.3 g [Cu]i of 25 mg L−1 and T = 280 K. The ads of Cu on TRH is endothermic, spontaneous, follows Langmuir isotherms, and exhibited a PSO kinetics. Moreover, the TRH was successfully regenerated and used for further adsorption cycles using 1 M HNO3.

The objective of this study was to investigate the biosorption of Cu (II) and Ni (II) ions from aqueous solution by calcium alginate beads. The effects of solution pH, contact time and initial metal ion concentration were evaluated. The results showed that maximum Cu (II) removal (93.10%) occurred at pH of 9.0, contact time of 120 minutes and initial ion concentration of 10 mg/L while that of Ni (II) was 94.6%, which was achieved at pH of 8.0, contact time of 120 minutes and initial ion concentration of 10 mg/L. The equilibrium data fitted well to the Langmuir Isotherm indicating that the process is a monolayer adsorption. The coefficients of determination, R2, values for the Langmuir Isotherm were 0.9799 and 0.9822 respectively for Cu (II) and Ni (II) ions. The values of the maximum biosorption capacity, Qo, were 10.79 and 6.25 mgg-1 respectively. The kinetic data also revealed that the sorption process could best be described by the pseudo – second order kinetic model. The R2 values for the pseudo – second order kinetic plots for Cu (II) and Ni (II) were 0.9988 and 0.9969 respectively. These values were higher than those for the pseudo – first order plots. The values of the biosorption capacity qe obtained from the pseudo – second order plots were very close to the experimental values of qe indicating that the biosorption process follows the second order kinetics. This study has therefore shown that calcium alginate beads can be used for the removal of Cu (II) and Ni (II) ions from wastewaters.

The main objective of this study consists in the synthesis of a layered double hydroxide (LDH) clay doped with magnesium and aluminum in order to test the removal of phosphates and ibuprofen in water. Two different LDH composites are assessed: oven-dried (LDHD) and calcined (LDHC). Single adsorptions of phosphate and ibuprofen showed up to 70% and 58% removal in water, when LDHC was used. A poorer performance was observed for LDHD, which presented adsorption efficiencies of 52% and 35%, respectively. The simultaneous removal of phosphate and ibuprofen in water showed that LDHC allows a greater reduction in the concentration of both compounds than LDHD. Phosphate adsorption showed a close agreement between the experimental and theoretical capacities predicted by the pseudo-second-order model, whereas ibuprofen fitted to a first-order model. In addition, phosphate adsorption showed a good fit to an intraparticle diffusion model and to Bangham model suggesting that diffusion into pores controls the adsorption process. No other mechanisms may be involved in ibuprofen adsorption, apart from intraparticle diffusion. Finally, phosphate desorption could recover up to 59% of the initial concentration, showing the feasibility of the recuperation of this compound in the LDH.

Abstract To remove Ni(II) ions from an aqueous solution, researchers used red mud modified by chitosan (RM/CS) material as a new adsorbent. According to the findings, the surface area of red mud is nearly doubled after being treated with chitosan, from 68.6 m2/g to 105.7 m2/g. The effects of pH solution, contact time, and material dosage on the Ni(II) uptake were examined. In comparison with the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models, the intra-diffusion model was the most suitable kinetic model for the Ni(II) removal. Besides, the three-parameter Sips model was used to predict the Ni(II) adsorption of RM/CS from aqueous solution. Furthermore, the Langmuir maximum Ni(II) uptake capacity of this material was 31.66 mg/g at 323K, which was higher than red mud and several other natural materials. Notably, thermodynamic investigations demonstrated that Ni(II) adsorption on RM/CS is both exothermic and physic.
