A study has been conducted on the synthesis of paramagnetic mercapto silica hybrids as metal adsorbent of Ag(I). The aim of this study was to synthesis paramagnetic mercapto silica hybrid from rice husk ash waste, knowing the characteristics of paramagnetic mercapto silica hybrid from rice husk ash waste, and to determine the effect of pH, metal ions concentration, and the contact time on the value of adsorption capacity (Q). Based on the results of the study, it was found that paramagnetic mercapto silica hybrids can be synthesized from the rice husk ash waste. Characterization using FTIR spectroscopy showed that silanol (Si-OH), siloxan (Si-O-Si), -SH, and Fe-OH functional groups, and characterization of paramagnetic mercapto silica hybrid structures using XRD to show crystalline compounds with a position value of 2θ = 35.4 which showed that the magnetite material of Fe3O4 was coated by silica. Paramagnetic mercapto silica hybrids from rice husk waste can be used as adsorbent of Ag (I) metal at optimum conditions of pH 3, contact time of 120 minutes, and adsorption capacity of 392.01 mg/g. The suitable isotherm model is the Freundlich isotherm model which means the absorption of metal Ag (I) occurs physically, while adsorption of kinetics followed the pseudo II order kinetic model with a value of k  = 3.01 g.mg-1 minute-1.

Synthesis of paramagnetic silica from rice husk ash has been carried out as an adsorbent for heavy metal Ag (I). This study tried to synthesis and characterized the thermodynamics and kinetics behaviour of paramagnetic silica from the husk ash as metal adsorbent Ag (I). Determination of optimal conditions for adsorption of metal ions Ag (I) is carried out by varying the pH, concentration, and contact time of the adsorbent. The results showed that the optimum pH was at pH 3, optimal concentration Ag(I) of 350 ppm and optimal contact time of 90 minutes. At optimal conditions, paramagnetic silica adsorption capacity for metal ion Ag (I) is 323.62 mg/g. The isotherm model that is suitable for paramagnetic silica is the Freundlich isotherm model. The kinetic model that is suitable for paramagnetic silica is the Pseudo Order 2 kinetic model.

The parametric statistical adsorption of chemically unmodified coconut shell powder (CSP) to adsorb iron (II) ions from aqueous solutions was examined in this work. It was observed that the adsorption capacity increased with increasing adsorbent dose, reducing adsorbate dose, increasing contact time, decreasing temperature and reducing particle size. As observed about one gram of the adsorbent was sufficient enough to remove 98 % iron (II) ions. A total contact time of about 40 minutes was sufficient for almost complete adsorption of the ions, while a pH of about 6.0 exhibited the maximum adsorption capacity. The sorption data were fitted into Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and the Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherms, fitted most with the Freundlich Isotherm model. The energy values obtained from the Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm model indicated high chemisorption phenomenon with the adsorbents. Investigation of some kinetic models confirmed that the adsorption of iron (II) ions using CSP was a pseudo-second order kinetic process, which further corroborates that chemisorption dominates the adsorption. Fourier Transform Analysis (FTIR) further established and justified the outcome of the study. The adsorption was parametrically justified statistically with Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Bonferroni-Holm Posthoc significance test. Conclusively, coconut shell proved strongly to be an effective and suitable adsorbent for removing iron (II) ions from aqueous solutions.

<p>The present study is based on the adsorption of cadmium (II) ions on rice husk and egussi peeling, unmodified and modified with nitric acid in aqueous solution, using batch technique. It was carried out as a function of contact time, dosage, pH and initial concentration. The equilibrium time was achieved within 25 minutes for unmodified rice husk (Glu NT) and 20 minutes for unmodified egussi peeling (Cuc NT) with an adsorbed quantity of 13.18 mg/g. In the case of modified materials, we obtained 15 minutes for modified rice husk (Glu HNO3) and 10 minutes for modified egussi peeling (Cuc HNO3) with an adsorbed quantity of 18.77 mg/g. The maximum biosorption occurred at pH 5.5 for all biosorbents. The adsorbent mass for maximum adsorption was 0.4 g giving an adsorption capacity of 62.02 % for unmodified adsorbents. In the case of modified adsorbents, the minimal mass at which maximum adsorption occurred was 0.4 g giving an adsorption capacity of 98.33 % and 0.6 g giving an adsorption capacity of 98.33 % for modified rice husk and egussi peeling respectively. The adsorbent/adsorbate equilibrium was well described by the pseudo-second order kinetic model and by Langmuir’s and Freundlich adsorption model. This models showed that the adsorption of cadmium (II) is a chemisorption process.</p>

The objective of this paper is to study the removal of Cr(VI) in aqueous solution by using a new graphene oxide-coated rice husk biochar composite (GO-RHB). GO-RHB is a synthetic material having a porous structure with lots of oxygen-containing functional groups and a large surface area that provide effective adsorption sites. Experiments showed that GO-RHB had higher adsorption capacity under acidic than under alkaline conditions. At pH of 2, GO-RHB has the maximum adsorption capacity(48.8 mg g−1). Equilibrium data obtained by fitting with the Langmuir and Freundlich models indicate that the reaction process was monolayer adsorption. The adsorption of Cr(VI) followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model that illustrates chemical adsorption. Intraparticlediffusion studies further revealed that film diffusion was taking place. Moreover, the results of thermodynamics showed that the adsorption process was endothermic and spontaneous in nature. The removal mechanism of Cr(VI) was also explained in detail. The prepared adsorbent is highly efficient and might be useful than many other conventional adsorbent used for the removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater.

High amounts of ammonium (NH4+) discharged in receiving water can lead to eutrophication. The adsorption of NH4+ from synthetic solution onto granular activated carbon (GAC) was scrutinized with respect to initial solute concentration (10 mg L−1), solution volume (0.2 L), adsorbent dosage (4 – 20 g), and contact time. Experimental data can be well described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R2 > 0.994) and Freundlich isotherm model (R2 = 0.936), suggesting that chemisorption and multilayer adsorption occurred. Furthermore, this study explored the feasibility of using the Freundlich isotherm model to estimate the removal efficiency or required amount of adsorbent. The result findings indicated that GAC has a good potential to adsorb NH4+ from water and thus giving new insights into environmental engineering practices.

This study was carried out to investigate the efficiency of raw pili shell (RPS) and the surface modified pili shell using EDTA (EMPS) and oxalic acid (OMPS). A comparative study on the adsorption capacity of the adsorbents was performed against lead (Pb2+) from aqueous solution. The adsorbents were characterized by FTIR, which showed higher peak of adsorption bands of carboxylic groups on the acid modified pili shells. Scanning electron microscope orSEM was also used to describe the surface morphology of the adsorbents. The linear form of Langmuir and Freundlich models were applied to represent adsorption data. The calculated equilibrium data of Pb (II) best fitted to Langmuir compare to Freundlich isotherm model with maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of 27.03 mg/g and 45.45 mg/g using EMPS and OMPS, respectively. Kinetic sorption models were used to determine the adsorption mechanism and the kinetic data of all the adsorbents correlated (R2=1) wellwith the pseudo second order kinetic model. Among the three adsorbents, OMPS shown higher percent removal of lead compared to RPS and EMPS. The large adsorption capacity rate indicated that chemically modified pili shell in present study has great potential to be used as a cost-effective adsorbent for the removal of lead ions from the water.

The adsorption capacity was compared for the dye wastewater onto adsorbent MnO2. The effects of contact time and dosage of adsorbent were studied. The adsorption kinetics was analyzed. The results showed that MnO2 possessed higher adsorption capacity to Methylene blue than Methyl orange which the removal efficiency could reached 94.82%and 78.63% respectively under the conditions (the dosage1.2g/L, time 60min, initial dye concentration 50mg/L, pH7). The dynamical data fit well with the pseudo second order kinetic model. The MnO2 has higher Methylene blue adsorption capacity in short equilibrium times and are good alternative in wastewater treatment.

Removal of Pb (II) ion from aqueous solution using Hymenoptera sphecidae (mud-wasp) nest was investigated using a batch process. The effect of pH, contact time and adsorbent dose were also investigated. The result showed that the adsorption of Pb (II) ion onto mud-wasp nest was dependent on pH, contact time and adsorbent dose. Adsorption patterns were analysed in terms of three bi-parameter isotherms of Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin. Freundlich isotherm gave the best fit to the adsorption data with a correlation coefficient of 0.992, while monolayer sorption capacity yielded 41.667 mg/g. Lagergren’s pseudo first-order and pseudo second-order kinetic models were used to test the adsorption kinetics. The kinetic data were well described by the pseudo second-order kinetic model, suggesting that the process was chemisorption type.  The results showed that mud-wasp nest can be used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of Pb (II) ion from aqueous solutions.

The present study is focused on the use of activated carbon derived from water hyacinth (WH-AC) as adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The optimized WH-AC was found to be mesoporous and considered as granular. The surface area of 11.564 m2/g was found to have a good adsorption capacity. The adsorption data of the optimized WH-AC followed a pseudo-second order kinetics and the Freundlich isotherm model. Based on the correlation coefficient obtained from pseudo-second-order kinetic model, the R2 values were all above 0.99, which is closer to unity of one (1) indicating that it followed a chemisorption process. The adsorption capacity of WH-AC increased from 1.98 to 4.68 mg/g when adsorbate concentration increased from 20 to 50 mg/l. The overall study proved that the adsorption by activated carbon derived from water hyacinth can be an alternative and efficient technique in hexavalent chromium removal.

Adsorption of disperse dyes from wastewater onto Ni-Zn LHS (layered hydroxide salts) and Mg-Al LDH (layered double hydroxides) has been compared in this study. Effects of initial pH solution, contact time and initial dye concentration were investigated. The ability of the adsorbent to be reused was also studied. The results showed that acidic condition was favorable for the adsorption of each dyes onto both adsorbent. The adsorption kinetics was studied using pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order and Santosa’s kinetics models. The experimental data fits well with the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The equilibrium adsorption data were analyzed using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The results showed that adsorption of navy blue onto both adsorbent followed Freundlich isotherm adsorption, while yellow F3G followed Langmuir isotherm adsorption. In the application for the adsorption the wastewater containing dyes, Ni-Zn LHS has a better adsorption capacity of 52.33 mg/g than that of Mg-Al LDH that 30.54 mg/g. Calcination of the adsorbent which has already been used increased the adsorption capacity of Mg-Al LDH to 84.75 mg/g, but decreased the adsorption capacity of the Ni-Zn LHS to 42.65 mg/g.
