In this study silver  nanoparticles by hydroxyl group (AgOH-NP) were synthesized and loaded on activated carbon prepared from Rosa canina tree (AgOH-NP-AC-RC). This new adsorbent was used for the removal of Malachite green and Methylene blue from aqueous medium.The morphological properties of the novel adsorbent were investigated by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and FT-IR analysis. The removal both dyes in batch mode was investigated at various operating parameters like; contact time, initial pH, initial dye concentration and amount of adsorbents. The experimental equilibrium data were analyzed by using various models and it was seen that Freundlich isotherm model fitted well with adsorbtion capacity of 105 mg.g-1for Malachite green and 81.43 mg.g-1 for Methylene blue. The adsorption kinetic data followed pseudo second-order kinetics for removal both dyes.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ijls.v9i2.12053 International Journal of Life Sciences 9 (2) : 2015; 75-92

The biosorption of Malachite Green from aqueous solution was investigated by using pretreated fungal biomass in a batch system. The effects of initial pH, NaCl concentration, initial dye concentration and temperature on dye biosorption were studied. The results showed that the pretreated fungal biomass exhibited higher dye removal at initial pH value of 5.0-6.0. The bosorption capacity was increased with the increasing temperature in studied temperature range. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were applied to experimental equilibrium data and the Langmuir model better described the equilibrium dye uptake than the Freundlich model. Thermodynamic studies revealed that the biosorption process was successful, spontaneous and endothermic in nature.

Abstract Herein, a magnetically separable Fe3O4 decorated chitosan was facilely synthesized, systematically characterized, and subsequently employed as a versatile adsorbing material for the adsorption of malachite green and methylene blue dyes. The prepared adsorbent was characteristically examined through Fourier transform infra-red microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, transmission electron microscopy X-ray diffraction, Brunauere-Emmette-Teller surface area analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and vibrating-sample magnetometry techniques. The performance of adsorbent was studied in batch mode and the the time-dependent experimental data were analyzed with different kinetic models, and pseudo-IInd-order was provided the best fit for the adsorption of both the dyes with a high value of the regression coefficient. The adsorption equilibrium data of both the dyes was best explained by Langmuir isotherm, and the maximum sorption capacity of MG and MB was found to be 55.86 and 76.34 mg g-1, respectively. Thermodynamic analysis declared that the adsorption of MG and MB onto the MChi was endothermic and spontaneous in nature. Moreover, the adsorbent presented good reusability up to three successive ad-/de-sorption cycles, indicating that MChi is a promising applicant for the treatment of dye-containing wastewater.

The removal of textile-based cationic methylene blue (MB) dye from synthetic wastewater was investigated in batch model using low cost agro-based adsorbents named Kenaf core, and the activated carbon. A comparative analysis between these adsorbents was defined via pH, adsorbent dose and contact time on adsorption process, and morphological properties. In addition, isotherms adsorption studies were estimated for determination of the equilibrium adsorption capacity. The experimental observation showed that the optimum pH values for Kenaf core and the activated carbon were 6 and 4 respectively. Meanwhile the optimum adsorbent dosage values for Kenaf and the activated carbon were 1.5g for both. The results showed that a high adsorption efficiency for Kenaf core which was about 84% and 92 % for activated carbon. The correlation coefficients (𝑅2) for kenaf core were equal to 0.8789 and 89 for Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm, respectively. Meanwhile, the correlation coefficients (𝑅2) for activated carbon were equal were 0.8974 and 0.7643 for Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, respectively. The results illustrated that the Kenaf core has a porous and an irregular surface area which make it a suitable adsorbent for dyes in the wastewater.

Abstract An adsorption study has been conducted for activated carbon obtained from grape wood wastes to assess their capability to remove methylene blue (MB) from the aqueous solutions. The properties of prepared activated carbon were characterized using FTIR, BET and SEM analyses. The effects of independent variables such as initial concentration of MB (100–500 mg L−1), initial pH of solution (3–11), adsorbent dosage (0.25–12.25 g L−1) and contact time (10–90 min) on the MB adsorption have been optimized using response surface methodology. The highest MB removal efficiency was 98% when pH, MB and adsorbent dosage were 11, 100 mg L−1 and 12.25 g L−1, respectively. The experimental data have been tested using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models, and the achieved data were fully fitted with the Langmuir model (R2 = 0.99), which indicates the monolayer adsorption. The adsorption kinetics well followed by the pseudo-second-order model with R2 of 0.99. This prepared activated carbon as a low-cost and eco-friendly adsorbent can be used widely for water and wastewater treatment.

The adsorption of malachite green onto activated carbon prepared from apricot stones material has been investigated at batch conditions. The effects of contact time (0–60 min), initial pH (3–11), agitation speed (100–700 r/min), temperature (298–343 K), adsorbent dose (1–10 g/L), and malachite green concentration (4.45–17.6 mg/L) on the malachite green adsorption by apricot stones material have been studied. Malachite green removal increases over the contact time until equilibrium. The batch adsorption experiments were carried out to optimize the physical parameters on the malachite green removal efficiency. It has been found that 23.80 mg/g at 25°C and 88.05 mg/g at 70°C were removed. The kinetic parameters, rate constants and equilibrium adsorption capacities, were calculated and discussed for each kinetic model. The adsorption of malachite green onto apricot stones material is well described by the pseudo second-order equation. The experimental isotherm data were analyzed by different models; the adsorption follows the Langmuir model, providing a better fit of the equilibrium data. The thermodynamics parameters such as the negative free energy Δ G° (−0.191 to −4.447 kJ/mol) and positive enthalpy Δ H° (50.86 kJ/mol) indicated the spontaneous and endothermic nature of the malachite green adsorption with a chemisorption process.

An improvement in the adsorption capacity of naturally available bentonite towards water pollutants such as Methylene Blue dye (MBD) is certainly needed. For this purpose, sodium bentonite was activated by two methods: (1) treatment with sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) as an ionic surfactant and (2) thermal treatment in an oven operated at 850°C. Batch adsorption tests were carried out on removing MBD from aqueous solution using the above-mentioned bentonites. It was found that the effectiveness of bentonites towards MBD removal was in the following order: thermal-bentonite > SDS-bentonite > natural bentonite. X-Ray diffraction analysis showed that an increase in the microscopic bentonite platelets on treatment with SDS was the reason behind the higher uptake of MBD. An increase in sorbent concentration or initial pH value of the solutions resulted in a greater removal of MBD from the solution. An increase in temperature led to an increase in MBD uptake by the bentonites studied in this work. The Freundlich isotherm model was employed and found to represent the experimental data well.

Activated carbon prepared from Ricinus communis Pericarp was used to remove Ni(II) from aqueous solution by adsorption. Batch mode adsorption experiments are carried out by varying contact time, metal-ion concentration, carbon concentration and pH to assess kinetic and equilibrium parameters. The adsorption data were modeled by using both Langmuir and Freundlich classical adsorption isotherms. The adsorption capacity (Qo) calculated from the Langmuir isotherm was 31.15 mg/g of activated carbon at initial pH of 5.0±0.2 for the particle size 125-250 µm.
