The present study is to explore the possibility of utilizing granular activated charcoal (GAC) for the removal of total phosphorous (T-P) and total nitrogen (T-N) in aqueous solution. Batch adsorption studies were carried out to determine the influences of various factors like initial concentration, contact time and temperature. The adsorption data showed that GAC has a similar adsorption capacity for both T-N and T-P. The adsorption degree of T-N and T-P on GAC was highly concentration dependent. It was found that the adsorption capacity of GAC is quite favorable at a low concentration. At concentrations of 1.0 mg L-1 of T-P and 2.0 mg L-1 of T-N, approximately 97 % of adsorption was achieved by GAC. The equilibrium data were fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm model. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model appeared to be the better-fitting model because it has higher R2 compared with the pseudo-first-order and intra-particle kinetic model. The theoretical adsorption equilibrium qe,cal from pseudo-second-order kinetic model were relatively similar to the experimental adsorption equilibrium qe,exp. To evaluate the effect of thermodynamic parameters at different temperatures, the change in free energy ΔG, the enthalpy ΔH and the entropy ΔS were estimated. Except for adsorption of T-P at 278 K, the ΔG values obtained were all negative at the investigated temperatures. It indicates that the present adsorption system occurs spontaneously. The adsorption process of T-N by GAC was exothermic in nature, whereas T-P showed endothermic behavior. In addition, the positive values of ΔS imply that there was the increase in the randomness of adsorption of T-N and T-P at GAC-solution interface.

Abstract Magnetic ZnFe2O4 nanocomposite (ZnFe-NC) was used as an adsorbent for the removal of Rhodamine B (RB) from aqueous solution. The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by XRD, SEM, HRTEM, BET and FTIR. The effects of various parameters such as initial RB concentration (5–25 mg L−1), pH (3.4–11.1) and temperature (20–60°C) were investigated. The adsorption capacity at equilibrium increased from 5.02 to 9.83 mg g−1, with the increase in the initial concentration of RB from 5 to 25 mg L−1 at pH 7.0 and at 20°C. The experimental results indicated that the maximum RB removal could be attained at a solution pH of 4.4 and the adsorption capacity obtained was 6.02 mg g−1. Kinetic adsorption data were analyzed using the pseudo-first-order kinetic model, the pseudo-second-order model and the intraparticle diffusion model. The adsorption kinetics well fitted using a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The experimental isotherm data were analyzed using two isotherm models, namely, Langmuir and Freundlich. The results revealed that the adsorption behavior of the RB onto ZnFe-NC fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm model. In addition, various thermodynamic parameters, such as standard Gibbs free energy (ΔG°), enthalpy (ΔH°) and entropy (ΔS°) have been calculated.

Glucomannan/graphene oxide (GM/GO) hydrogel was synthesized by using calcium hydroxide as the crosslinker. The synthesized material was characterized by using IR, XRD, SEM, EDX and RAMAN technology. The composite hydrogel was used for removal of organic dyes from aqueous solution. The results showed that the GM/GO hydrogel had a porous structure and a high adsorption capacity toward methylene blue (MB). The pseudo-second-order kinetic model could fit the rate equation of MB adsorption onto the GM/GO hydrogel. The adsorption of MB onto GM/GO hydrogel was a spontaneous process. In addition, the equilibrium adsorption isotherm data indicated that equilibrium data were fitted to the Langmuir isotherm and the maximum dye adsorption capacity was 198,69 mg.g-1. Moreover, the hydrogel was stable and easily recovered and adsorption capacity was around 97% of the initial saturation adsorption capacity after being used five times.

Abstract Heavy metal and radioactive ions can cause serious environmental problems if they are not completely removed from wastewater as well as in groundwater. In this study, large pore LTL and MOR zeolites were successfully synthesized and used as adsorbent to remove Pb2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Cs+ and Sr2+ ions in aqueous solution. At low initial concentration (10 ppm), LTL and MOR zeolites effectively removed above metal ions with removal efficiency in the range of 95–99%. Both zeolites showed high affinity to Cs+ and Pb2+ ions with the adsorption capacity of LTL zeolite to Cs+ and Pb2+ were 278.8 mg/g and 141.4 mg/g, and that of MOR zeolite were 238.8 mg/g and 178.9 mg/g, respectively. The EDS results showed that Pb2+ ions from the aqueous solution were exchanged with exchangeable Na+ ions in MOR zeolite and K+ ions in LTL zeolite. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model fitted better to experiment data on the adsorption of metal ions on both LTL and MOR zeolite. This result revealed that the adsorption of these metal ions on LTL and MOR zeolite was monolayer chemisorption. The equilibrium adsorption results showed that the microstructure of zeolite significantly affected the adsorption capacity of LTL and MOR zeolite on removal of tested metal ions.

Mg-Fe hydrotalcite-like compounds (Mg-Fe-HTLCs) were synthesized via hydrothermal method, and characterized by XRD and FT-IR. The roasted products were used to remove sulfate ions by the adsorptive ability from aqueous solution. The effects of adsorbent dosage, initial pH and temperature on the sulfate ions removal were fully investigated, and the adsorption kinetics and adsorption isotherms were also studied. Results showed that the synthesized materials with CO32- as the interlayer anions had fine crystallinity. The materials of Mg-Fe hydrotalcite-like compounds had a very good adsorption capacity for aqueous solution with the initial sulfate ions concentration was 500mg/L, pH range from 4 to 8 and temperature of 35°C. Moreover, the adsorption equilibrium was about 90 min under the optical condition. The experimental data showed a good compliance with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and the adsorption isotherm data met Langmuir models well. It was found that the maximal adsorption capacity reached 151.51mg/g.

AbstractThe removal of enrofloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic, from aqueous solution by adsorption onto bentonite was investigated in this study. The effects of initial concentrations, contact time and temperature on the adsorption of enrofloxacin were studied via batch experiments. The adsorption equilibrium was achieved within 60 min for all studied concentrations. The adsorption capacity increased with the increase of initial concentration within a concentration range. Higher temperatures were favourable for the adsorption. The change of Gibbs free energy (ΔG°), change of enthalpy (ΔH°) and change of entropy (ΔS°) were evaluated and the results indicate that the adsorption should be an endothermic and spontaneous process. The Langmuir isotherm model fitted to the experimental data better than the Freundlich model. The adsorption follows the pseudo-second order kinetic model.

Lentinus concinnus biomass was immobilized to carboxyl derivative of cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), in the presence of FeCl3 (0.1 mol L−1) via ionic cross-linking. The beads containing immobilized fungal biomass were incubated at 30 °C for three days to permit growth of the fungus. The free and immobilized fungal biomass were tested for adsorption of Disperse Red 60 (DR-60) from aqueous solution using bare CMC beads as a control system. The maximum adsorption of DR-60 on the free and immobilized fungal biomass was observed at pH 6.0. The adsorption of DR-60 by the free, and immobilized fungal biomass increased as the initial concentration of DR-60 in the medium increased up to 100 mg/L. The maximum adsorption capacity of the CMC beads, the free and immobilized fungal biomass (i.e. composite beads) were found to be 43.4, 65.7, and 92.6 mg g−1 dry sorbents, respectively. The equilibrium of the adsorption system was well described by Langmuir and Temkin isotherm models. Adsorption equilibrium was established in about 1.0 h. The adsorption of DR-60 on the fungal preparations followed pseudo-second-order kinetic model. It was observed that the immobilized fungal biomass has a high potential for the removal of DR-60 as a model dye from aqueous solution.
