Enrichment Process

In this study, raw boron enrichment waste was treated with hydrochloric acid and ultrasound at 35-kHz frequency for 60 minutes. To optimize the adsorption conditions for removal of methylene blue (MB) from synthetic wastewaters using raw boron enrichment waste (BEW), acid modified boron enrichment waste (HBEW) and ultrasound modified BEW (UBEW) by adsorption process and to compare the adsorption efficiency of chemical and ultrasonic modifications of BEW were aimed. The optimum adsorption conditions were determined economically and eco-friendly aspect and MB removal percents were found as 80%, 80% and 92% at optimum conditions for BEW, HBEW and UBEW, respectively. The maximum regression coefficient values were obtained as 0.911, 0.998 and 0.984 for BEW, HBEW and UBEW, respectively at Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption rate was fitted well to pseudo-second order kinetics according to a good correlation coefficient. The adsorption of MB onto adsorbents studied is spontaneous in nature and feasible because of negative ∆G values. The results indicated that the boron enrichment process waste could be a suitable adsorbent for removal of MB from aqueous solution. The maximum adsorption capacities were equal to about 107,0 mg/g, 160,7 mg/g and 145,3 mg/g for BEW, HBEW and UBEW adsorbents at 298 K, respectively. The maximum dye removal percent was achieved for UBEW as 92% and ultrasound assisted modification was found more efficient method compared with acidic modification for MB removal.

In this study, baker’s yeast-MnO2 composites, produced by direct oxidation of yeast with KMnO4 under acidic conditions, were used as biosorbent to remove the triphenylmethane dye Malachite green (MG) from an aqueous solution. Parameters that influence the adsorption process, such as pH, contact time, temperature, initial dye concentration and biosorbent dosage, were evaluated in batch experiments. The optimum removal of MG was found to be  86.7 mg g-1 at pH 10, 1.0 g L-1 of biomass dosage and 45°C. The kinetic data of dye removal was better described by the pseudo-second-order model. The adsorption process followed the Langmuir isotherm model and the maximum biosorption capacity was estimated to be  243.9 mg g-1 (at 25°C). The negative values of ∆G° and the positive value of ∆H° indicated that the MG biosorption onto yeast-MnO2 composites is spontaneous and endothermic. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated that the nano-MnO2 particles deposited on yeast-MnO2 composites surface facilitated the MG adsorption. It was concluded that baker’s yeast-MnO2 composites have potential for application as adsorbent for removal of MG from aqueous solution.

Adsorption is an effective method of removing harmful pollutants from air and water. In the present study, zeolites prepared by sol-gel method from two Ecuadorian clays were combined with precursor clays and the ZnTiO3/TiO2 semiconductor for adsorbing methylene blue (MB) as a water contaminant. The synthesized compounds were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray fluorescence, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray, and surface area measurement. These compounds were combined to form cylindrical extrudates of 0.2 cm (diameter) and 1.0 cm (length). The adsorption characteristics of the composites were measured using batch sorption studies as a function of pH, initial concentration, and contact time. The pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir isotherm model were better suited to the adsorption process. The equilibrium state was achieved around 180 min of adsorption, and a pH of 7 was established as the optimal operating condition. The maximum adsorption values of the dye were obtained with the composites derived from G-Clay, whose average adsorption capacity was 46.36 mg g−1, in contrast with composites derived from R-Clay, whose average adsorption value was 36.24 mg g−1. The results reflect that synthesized composites could be used potentially for the removal of cationic dye from wastewater.

Due to their toxicity, Cd(II) and Ni(II) ions in the environment are severe. The hydroxyapatite composite was improved with magnetic MnFe2O4 to remove Cd(II) and Ni(II) ions from an aqueous solution. Hydroxyapatite was extracted from Snakehead (Channa striata) fish bones via alkaline-heat treatment. The hydroxyapatite/MnFe2O4 composite performance was analyzed through XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDS, BET analysis, and VSM, and the results reveal that the hydroxyapatite/MnFe2O4 composite shows good magnetic properties of 21.95 emu/g. The kinetics evaluation confirmed that the pseudo-second-order kinetics model was more suitable to describe the adsorption of Cd(II) and Ni(II) ions by hydroxyapatite/MnFe2O4 composite from the solution. The Langmuir isotherm model was suitable to describe the adsorption process of the Cd(II) and Ni(II)  ions, where the adsorption capacities for Cd(II) and Ni(II) are 54.3 and 47.4 mg/g, respectively. Desorption of Cd(II) and Ni(II) ions from hydroxyapatite/MnFe2O4 composite using NaCl as the eluent was more effective than EDTA. The findings of this study indicate that hydroxyapatite/MnFe2O4 can reduce Cd(II) and Ni(II) ions in wastewater so that it can recover natural resources.

Tea powder, a biosorbent prepared from wasted oolong tea, was collected as a prospective adsorbent for the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution. The effect of factors on adsorption efficiency, isotherms, kinetics, and potential mechanism was carried out. Adsorption capacity of MB onto wasted tea powder increased with the MB concentration and contact time, whereas the increase in pH value and ion strength appeared to have a negative effect for the adsorption process. The adsorption efficiency increased rapidly and reached a stable state within 120 min. The optimal tea powder loading weight is suggested to be at 0.1 to 0.2 g, and the highest efficiency of 94.8% is achieved at 333 K. There were no significant changes in adsorption efficiency when the effect of temperature is considered. The Langmuir isotherm model was found to be the best isotherm models to elucidate the adsorption mechanism in this study. The maximum adsorption capacities calculated at different temperatures by the Langmuir model ranging from 312.5 to 333.3 mg·g−1 were much close to the experimental results. From the kinetic analysis, the pseudo--second-order model was found to be the best model to describe the adsorption behavior. The calculated adsorption capacities at different initial MB concentrations by the pseudo-second-order model ranging from 92.34 to 400 mg·g−1 were well close to the experimental data. The fitting results obtained from the intraparticle diffusion model suggested that the intraparticle diffusion was not the only rate-controlling step and some other mechanisms along with the intraparticle diffusion were probably involved. The intraparticle diffusion of MB molecules into pore structures of wasted tea powder is the rate-limiting step for the adsorption process in this study. The repetitive cycle experiments indicated that the wasted oolong tea powder was efficiently regenerated using NaOH and thus be used for many times.

A new medium, eggshell powder has been developed for fluoride removal from aqueous solution. Fluoride adsorption was studied in a batch system where adsorption was found to be pH dependent with maximum removal efficiency at 6.0. The experimental data was more satisfactorily fitted with Langmuir isotherm model. The kinetics and the factor controlling adsorption process fully accepted by pseudo-second-order model were also discussed. Eawas found to be 45.98 kJmol-1by using Arrhenius equation, indicating chemisorption nature of fluoride onto eggshell powder. Thermodynamic study showed spontaneous nature and feasibility of the adsorption process with negative enthalpy (∆H0) value also supported the exothermic nature. Batch experiments were performed to study the applicability of the adsorbent by using fluoride contaminated water collected from affected areas. These results indicate that eggshell powder can be used as an effective, low-cost adsorbent to remove fluoride from aqueous solution as well as groundwater.
