The cellulose acetate-polystyrene or CA-PS composite membrane from pineapple peel waste for methylene blue removal has been conducted. The steps were nata de pina preparation, cellulose acetylation process, preparation, and characterization of CA-PS composite membrane. The CA-PS composite membrane was characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), tensile and strain examination, respectively. The as-synthesized CA-PS composite membrane has the characteristic of rejection ability was about 29.96% with the pore size, membrane modulus, stress and strain were 1.9 μm, 12.48 MPa, 31.91 MPa, and 2.55, respectively. In this research, CA-PS composite membrane from pineapple peel waste was successfully removed the methylene blue dye even needs improvement to enhance its capability in rejection efficiency as same as membrane characteristics.

The ability of bagasse adsorbents to adsorb methylene blue without activation using 0.5 M H2SO4 solution was examined. Methylene blue is widely used in the textile industry because it produces bright colors, and the dyeing process is fast and easy. This research aims to determine the optimum adsorption conditions, namely the variations in contact time, dye concentration, adsorbent mass, and pH effect on methylene blue, which were carried out using the batch method. Furthermore, the adsorbents were characterized by FT-IR and SEM. The optimum state of the bagasse adsorbent to adsorb methylene blue dye has a mass of 0.5 grams, a contact time of 30 minutes, a concentration of 50 ppm, and a pH of 5. The character of the adsorbent after activation with H2SO4 was better than without activation. The highest adsorption efficiency of methylene blue dye in the batch method was 99.67%. The FTIR spectrum of the bagasse adsorbent showed OH, C-H, C=O, C=C, and C-O functional groups. The adsorption isotherm model for methylene blue dye follows the Langmuir isotherm since the graph obtained is linear with the correlation coefficient (R2) = 1, where the adsorbent has a homogeneous surface.

Abstract This study reports the fabrication of Fe2O3, Bi2O3, and BiFeO3, characterization and evaluation of the photocatalytic performances for methylene blue dye degradation. The materials were synthesized by precipitation method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-rays analyses, and Fourier transform infrared analyses. The photocatalytic activities of Fe2O3, Bi2O3, and BiFeO3 were compared by performing degradation experiments with 50 mL of 100 mg/L methylene blue solution. The as-prepared BiFeO3 was found as 2.4 times and 1.7 times more effective than Fe2O3 and Bi2O3, with a 79, 47, and 57% catalytic activity, respectively. The degradation of methylene blue over the BiFeO3 catalyst was optimized in terms of pH, catalyst dosage, temperature, and methylene blue concentration. The Eley–Rideal mechanism was proposed to describe the reaction kinetics in terms of the first order and second order kinetics model. Activation energy E (kJ/mol), enthalpy ΔH (kJ/mol), entropy ΔS (J/mol) and free energy ΔG (kJ/mol) were calculated as 20.8, 18.2, 197.5 and −45.3 respectively. The negative value of free energy shows that photodegradation is favored in present conditions.

Abstract—A novel copper(II) complex nanoparticles catalyst was synthesized via precipitation and calcination. The catalyst was applied for the degradation of methylene blue under UV light irradiation. The catalyst was characterized for its physicochemical and structural properties by XRD, SEM, TEM and FT-IR spectroscopic techniques. XRD studies revealed that the particles were monoclinic single phase crystalline structure, the morphology of the nanostructure was confirmed by SEM while the TEM studies revealed that the particles were FCC. FTIR spectra showed the presence of diverse vibrational functional groups. Photolysis of the methylene blue dye indicates no degradation after 1 hour reaction, while the addition of the copper(II) complex nanoparticles catalyst resulted in the decolouration of the dye by ~94%. The efficiency of the catalyst was attributed to the nanoparticle’s morphology.
