Patulin (PAT) is a major threat to many food products, especially apple and apple products, causing human health risks and economic losses. The aim of this study was to remove PAT from apple juice by using the heat-inactivated (HI) cells and spores of seven Alicyclobacillus strains under controlled conditions. The HI cells and spores of seven strains adsorbed PAT effectively, and the HI cells and spores of Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius DSM 451 (A51) showed maximum PAT adsorption capacity of up to 12.6 μg/g by HI cells and 11.8 μg/g by HI spores at 30 °C and pH 4.0 for 24 h. Moreover, the PAT adsorption process followed the pseudo-first order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm model; thermodynamic parameters revealed that PAT adsorption is a spontaneous exothermic physisorption process. The results also indicated that PAT adsorption is strain-specific. The HI cells and spores of Alicyclobacillus strains are non-cytotoxic, and the bioadsorption of PAT did not affect the quality of the juice. Furthermore, the cell wall surface plays an important role in the adsorption process.

This paper reports the successful construction of novel polymerizable ionic liquid microemulsions and the in situ synthesis of poly(ionic liquid) adsorbents for the removal of Zn2+ from aqueous solution. Dynamic light-scattering data were used to confirm the polymerization media and to illustrate the effect of the crosslinker dosage on the droplet size of the microemulsion. FTIR and thermal analysis were employed to confirm the successful preparation of the designed polymers and characterize their thermostability and glass transition-temperature value. The optimization of the adsorption process indicates that the initial concentration of Zn2+, pH, adsorbent dosage and contact time affected the adsorption performance of poly(ionic liquid)s toward Zn2+. Furthermore, our research revealed that the adsorption process can be effectively described by the pseudo second-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm model.

Kanuma mud, a geomaterial, is used as an adsorbent for the removal of fluoride from water. The influences of contact time, solution pH, adsorbent dosage, initial fluoride concentration and co-existing ions were investigated by batch equilibration studies. The rate of adsorption was rapid with equilibrium being attained after about 2 h, and the maximum removal of fluoride was obtained at pH 5.0–8.0. The Freundlich isotherm model was found to represent the measured adsorption data well. The negative value of the thermodynamic parameter ΔG suggests the adsorption of fluoride by Kanuma mud was spontaneous, the endothermic nature of adsorption was confirmed by the positive ΔH value. The negative ΔS value for adsorbent denoted decreased randomness at the solid/liquid interface. The adsorption process using Kanuma mud followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Fluoride uptake by the Kanuma mud was a complex process and intra-particle diffusion played a major role in the adsorption process. It was found that adsorbed fluoride could be easily desorbed by washing the adsorbent with a solution of pH 12. This indicates the material could be easily recycled.

Hydrotalcite-like compounds containing Mg2+, Al3+ and Fe3+ with a constant M2+/M3+ ratio but varying Al3+/Fe3+ ratios have been prepared. The effects of iron contents on the structural and sorption of Pb2+ by Mg-Al-Fe HTlc samples were investigated. The maximum sorption amounts were about 88-201 mg/g for Mg-Al-Fe HTlc samples. The sorption isotherm and kinetic processes can be described with Freundlich isotherm and pseudo first order kinetic model, respectively. The sorption amounts and rate increase with the increase of iron contents in HTlc samples. The sorption mechanism of Pb2+ on Mg-Al-Fe HTlcs may be the surface-induced precipitation and chemical binding adsorption.

Adsorptive removal of remazol red R (RRR) and remazol black B (RBB) from aqueous solution has been investigated by using ZnO as an adsorbent. Time for adsorption equilibrium, kinetics of adsorption at different initial concentrations of dyes and adsorption isotherms at different temperatures have been studied. Adsorption capacity increased with increasing initial dye concentration. The pseudo first-order and pseudo second-order kinetics were used to describe kinetic data and the rate constants were evaluated. Experimental data fits better in the pseudo second-order kinetic model than in the pseudo first-order kinetic model for both the dyes. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were applied to describe the adsorption of RRR and RBB onto ZnO powders. Langmuir isotherm model provided a better correlation for the experimental data in comparison to the Freundlich isotherm model. Adsorption of both RRR and RBB on ZnO are physical in nature and increases with decreasing temperature. The equilibrium adsorption capacity decreases from 3.43 mg/g at 200C to 2.36 mg/g at 400C for RRR whereas that in the case of RBB changes from 0.77 mg/g at 300C to 0.75 mg/g at 400C. Adsorption of RRR on ZnO was found to be three times higher than the adsorption of RBB at a particular temperature. A model for adsorption of both the dyes has been proposed. Dhaka Univ. J.

Layered double hydroxide (LDH) Ni/Al-NO3 was synthesized using a coprecipitation method under base condition following with intercalation using Keggin ion [a-SiW12O40]4- to form Ni/Al-[a-SiW12O40] LDH. The LDHs were characterized using XRD, FTIR, BET, and pHpzc analyses. Furthermore, LDHs were applied as adsorbent of iron(II) from aqueous solution. The adsorption process was studied through the effect of adsorption time, the concentration of iron(II), and temperature adsorption. The results show the interlayer distance of LDHs was increased from 7.408 Å to 10.533 Å after intercalation process. The adsorption of iron(II) on LDHs showed that adsorption of iron(II) on both LDHs follows pseudo first-order kinetic model with R2 value is close to one. The adsorption process was spontaneous, with adsorption capacity up to 36.496 mg g-1.

One of the basic needs for human is clean water. Many lowlands and marshy areas in larger islands in Indonesia such as Sumatra and Kalimantan are the source of peat water. This type of water is harmful for people living in such areas and it cannot be used directly for drinking and living. According to the standard quality of good water, peat water does not meet the requirements as a source of water for daily life. Peat water is acidic, red-brownish coloured, and it contains higher organic matters especially humic acid and its derivatives. Photocatalysis process is one of the promising way to treat solution that contains humic acid. This research aims to pre-eliminary study activity of PVDF-TiO2/ZnO nanofiber for degradation of humic acid solution. Photocatalytic activities were studied inside photoreactor system with artificial UV radiation with 254 nm wavelength. The percentage of degradation after contacting humic acid solution to photocatalyst was determined by measuring humic acid solution before and after degradation by using UV-Vis spectrophotometer with maximum lambda in 219 nm. The rate constants were calculated and the results were 0,03909 min-1 and 0.02832 min-1 respectively for PVDF-4%TiO2/ZnO and PVDF-8%TiO2/ZnOnanofibers and it is in pseudo first order kinetic model.

In this paper, the sodium alginate (SA)/poly (vinylalcohol)(PVA)/hydroxyapatite (HAp) fiber was prepared via solution spinning. The adsorption properties of SA/PVA/HAp composite fiber were studied,and the adsorption kinetics and isotherms were investigated. The experimental results showed that the adsorption process was fast, in which half-equilibrium and equilibrium was obtained in 5 and 30 minutes, respectively. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model provided a better correlation of the experimental results. Both of Langmuir isotherm and Freundlich isotherm could describe the adsorption behavior of SA/PVA/HAp composite fiber towards cadmium. The positive H° value and increased absolute value of the G° with temperature indicate that high temperature is good to the adsorption process.

The modified carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC) was prepared and explored to adsorb uranium(Ⅵ) ions from aqueous solution in a batch system. The experimental results showed that on the condition of reaction temperature 70~80°C, CMC 30%-35% (w/w), CMC to AA (w/w) of 10:2.5 and reaction time 3.5-4 h, the modification effect was the best. High removal efficient of U(Ⅵ) was obtained 97.1% at temperature of 25°C, pH value of 5.0, dosage of modified CMC 0.1 g/L and contact time of 60 min. It was found that the adsorption process was best described by Freundlich model and pseudo-first-order kinetic model (R2=0.9618), indicating that the adsorption is mainly on the surface of the modified CMC. Thermodynamics parameters of negative value of ΔG0 and positive value of ΔH0 revealed the spontaneity and endothermic nature of the adsorption. The adsorption is primarily due to physical adsorption.

AbstractIn the present investigation, ZnO, CuO and Fe2O3 were prepared via green route and utilized for the sequestration of DGY (Direct Golden Yellow) dye. Affecting variables i.e., temperature, contact time, adsorbent dose and pH were optimized for maximum sequestration of dye from aqueous medium. The pH 2, adsorbent dose 0.1 g/50 mL dye solution, temperature 30 °C and 50 mg/L dye initial concentration were best levels for efficient dye adsorption and equilibrium was attained in 30 min reaction time. The dye sequestration on to ZnO, CuO and Fe2O3 was an exothermic process. Freundlich and Temkin adsorption isotherms explained well the dye adsorption onto nanoadsorbents and dye adsorption followed pseudo first order kinetic model. Effect of electrolytes and heavy metal ions was also investigated and both affected the adsorption process significantly. In the presences of surfactant/detergent, the removal of dye was reduced and 0.5 N NaOH efficiently desorbed the dye from nanoadsorbents. Findings depicted that the nanoadsorbents are effectual for the sequestration of DGY dye, which can be employed for the remediation of textile effluents.

In the present work, the equilibrium, thermodynamics, and kinetics of boron removal from aqueous solutions by the adsorption on commercial magnesium oxide powder were studied in a batch reactor. The adsorption efficiency of boron removal increases with temperature from 25°C to 50°C. The experimental results were fitted to the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin–Radushkevich (DR) adsorption isotherm models. The Freundlich model provided the best fitting, and the maximum monolayer adsorption capacity of MgO was 36.11 mg·g−1. In addition, experimental kinetic data interpretations were attempted for the pseudo-first-order kinetic model and pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The results show that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model provides the best fit. Such result suggests that the adsorption process seems to occur in two stages due to the two straight slopes obtained through the application of the pseudo-first-order kinetic model, which is confirmed by the adjustment of the results to the pseudo-second-order model. The calculated activation energy (Ea) was 45.5 kJ·mol−1, and the values calculated for ∆G°, ∆H°, and ∆S° were −4.16 kJ·mol−1, 21.7 kJ·mol−1, and 87.3 kJ·mol−1, respectively. These values confirm the spontaneous and endothermic nature of the adsorption process and indicated that the disorder increased at the solid-liquid interface. The results indicate that the controlling step of boron adsorption process on MgO is of a physical nature.
