The amount of liquid wastes containing acetic acid found from food industry such as tofu home industry released is relatively high and pollutes water quality and also environment nearby. Several methods reducing pollutant in liquid wastes are available, one of which is adsorption using carbon as an adsorbent. The production of cassava in Indonesia was about 23.936 tons in year 2013 which produced cassava’s skin wastes about 2.393 tons. Mostly these cassava’s skin wastes containing around 59.31% carbon is disposed as garbage. This research is to develop more on reducing acetic acid containing in liquid waste by carbon active from cassava’s skin with variation of particle sizes, reaction times and acetic acid liquid waste concentrations, and also to study the kinetic reaction of cassava skin active carbon adsorbing acetic acid between Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm equations. The result shows the kinetic adsorption follows Freundlich isotherm equation with maximum capacity of   Cassava skin active carbon 0.7 mg/g at particle size of adsorbent of 0.3375 mm and reaction time of 105 minutes.

- In this study, sodium alginate based porous membrane adsorbents (GA/SA) were prepared by using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as porogen and glutaraldehyde (GA) as cross-linking agent. The prepared GA/SA were used to remove Cr (III) ions from wastewater to test its adsorption performance. The proposed technique is very convenient for operation. The batch experiments were performed to investigate the adsorption kinetics of Cr (III) ions from aqueous solution under different conditions, such as the amount of PEG in the GA/SA, pH of solution, initial Cr (III) ions concentration, adsorbent dose and contact time. The GA/SA exhibited the maximum uptake capacity of 57.4 mg/g under the optimal condition. The experiment results show that the adsorption is high pH-dependent. Various kinetic models were applied to examine the mechanism of adsorption processes. Pseudo-second-order kinetic model exhibits the best correlation with experimental data. The kinetic experiment results show that the adsorption of Cr (III) ions is a multistep limited adsorption process. Out of Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations, the batch equilibrium data are better described by the Freundlich isotherm equation. The prepared GA/SA could be considered as a potential low-cost and high-effective bio-sorbent for removing and recovering Cr (III) ions from the aqueous solutions.

The present study aims at assessing the effect of microwave irradiation against thermal heat on the production of N-acetyl-p-anisidine by acetylation of p-anisidine. The acetylation of p-anisidine under microwave irradiation produces N-acetyl-p-anisidine in shorter reaction times, which offers a benefit to the laboratories as well as industries. It also eliminates the use of excess solvent. Effects of operating parameters such as reaction time, feed composition, and microwave energy and reaction temperature on selectivity to the desired product have been investigated. The results indicate as high as a 98% conversion of N-acetyl-p-anisidine can be achieved within 12-15 minutes using acetic acid. The use of acetic acid as an acetylating agent against conventionally used acetic anhydride eliminates the handling of explosive acetic anhydride and also the energy intensive distillation step for separation of acetic acid. Organic solvent like acetic anhydride are not only hazardous to the environment, they are also expensive and flammable.

Experiments investigating lead adsorption by activated sawdust of different particle sizes of two timber species were conducted. The experimental data were fitted to isothermal and kinetic models. The optimum particle size was 0.85 mm for Khaya ivorensis and 1.18 mm for Pycanthus angolensis. The adsorption of lead by Khaya ivorensis and Pycanthus angolensis conformed to the Langmuir isotherm (0.83 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.96 and 0.86 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.98, respectively) and Freundlich isotherm (0.69 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.97 and 0.94 ≤ R2 ≤ 1.0, respectively). The adsorption process for the two species of timber was controlled by solute transport in the bulk liquid and intraparticle diffusion which was confirmed by good agreement of experimental data with pseudo-first-order kinetics (0.96 ≤ R2 ≤ 1.0 for Khaya ivorensis and 0.9 ≤ R2 ≤ 1.0 for Pycanthus angolensis) and the intraparticle diffusion model (0.9 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.99 for Khaya ivorensis and 0.84 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.97 for Pycanthus angolensis). A new kinetic model was developed with R2 of 0.93 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.99 for Khaya ivorensis and 0.88 ≤ R2 ≤ 1.0 for Pycanthus angolensis.

AbstractIn this paper, a new surface modification method was reported for the preparation of Phyllostachys pubescens powder as an effective adsorbent for the removal of chromium. Complex copper sulfide (Cu-S)nanospheres were evenly dispersed and loaded into the internal surface of the adsorbent, which provided both the ion exchange and oxidative-reductive properties. The composite showed an excellent adsorption efficacy for Cr(III) and Cr(VI). The surface properties of the obtained materials were characterized by FTIR and SEM. Maximum adsorption for Cr(III) and Cr(VI) was observed at pH 6.1 and 1.9, respectively. The experimental sorption equilibrium data were modeled using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations. It was found that the maximum adsorption capacities of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) were 52.30 mg g-1 and 94.25 mg g-1, respectively. The adsorption mechanism analysis inferred that the major adsorption mode of Cr(III) was ion exchange, and Cr(VI) was oxide-reduction.

The sorption of eosin by peanut husk, which was chemically modified by formaldehyde in acidic medium was studied with variation in the parameters of contact time, pH, initial eosin concentration and temperature. They were used for equilibrium sorption uptake studies with eosin. The results indicate that sorption equilibrium could be well described by the Freundlich isotherm equation. The sorption followed the pseudo-second order model. The mass transfer model as intraparticle diffusion was applied to the experimental data to examine the mechanisms of the rate controlling step. It was found that the intraparticle diffusion is becoming the significant controlling step under the experimental conditions. The thermodynamic constants of the sorption process were also evaluated, which suggest an endothermic physical sorption process which runs spontaneously.

The content of Cr6+ as metal ions in the waste can also contaminating groundwater. The movement of Cr6+ will pass through the soil media before entering to the groundwater wells. The capability of the soil to adsorb the contaminant will reduce the impact on groundwater. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of the soil in adsorbing and inhibiting the movement of Cr6+ into groundwater. The study was carried out at Sukaregang, Garut Regency and conducting adsorption experiments with a batch system. The analysis was carried out using the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm model. The experimental results showed that Cr6+ adsorbed ranged from 38% to 57% of the initial concentration. The results from Langmuir Isotherm were: the distribution coefficient (Kads) was 0.45 L/mg and the maximum adsorption capacity (qm) was 2.44 mg/100g sorbent with R2 = 0.959 and Freundlich Isotherm was: qm was 2,86 mg/100g sorbent and Kads was 0,35 L/mg with R2 = 0,860. This large adsorption capacity is caused by soil texture and soil organic content. The soil in Sukaregang tanning industries has a high adsorption capacity towards Cr6+ contaminants.Keywords: adsorption, chromium, Cr6+, contaminant, volcanic soil, GarutABSTRAKIndustri penyamakan kulit di wilayah Sukaregang, Kabupaten Garut, menghasilkan limbah cair yang mengandung Kromium dan dibuang ke Sungai Ciwalen tanpa proses pengolahan limbah.

The removal of Cr6+ from aqueous solution using unmodified and hydrochloric modified African nutmeg pod was studied. The effects of particle size, pH and initial metal ions concentration adsorbed were investigated. The amount of metal ion adsorbed increased as the initial metal ion concentration increased and also decreased at low pH of 2 for both modified and unmodified African nutmeg pod.  400 µm and 250 µm were the optimum particle sizes for both modified and unmodified African nutmeg pod respectively, values given as 75.8 mg/g for the modified and 93.39 mg/g for the unmodified. Generally, it was observed that the unmodified African nutmeg pod showed greater adsorption capacity than the modified African nutmeg pod. The equilibrium experimental data were examined via Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models.  Freundlich isotherm model gave the best fit for the data in both unmodified and modified African nutmeg pod based on the correlation coefficients (R2 values) gotten. The results of the study showed that the African nutmeg pod is efficient for the removal of Cr6+ from aqueous solutions especially when unmodified.
