Oxidized alkaline loofah sponge (OAL) was given by treating alkaline loofah sponge (AL) with H2O2, four classic adsorption kinetics models which were Lagergren’s pseudo-first-order, Pseudo-second-order equation, the Elovich equation and Intraparticle diffusion were applied to study how the different oxidation degrees of loofah sponge impacted on the values of fitting goodness of the above models and to determine which kind of model was the best fit of the adsorption process and adsorption mechanism. The results showed that Pseudo-second-order equation’s fitting degree was proposed to be best and adsorption mechanism was chemical adsorption by ionic bonding, at the same time, as hydrogen bonds increased, water molecules formed a barrier to impede MB diffusing into the micro-structure.

Abstract Our recently tailored and fully characterized poly (AN)-starch nanoparticle graft copolymer having 60.1 G.Y. % was used as a starting substrate for copper ions removal from waste water effluent after chemical modification with hydroxyl amine via oximation reaction. This was done to change the abundant nitrile groups in the above copolymer into amidoxime one and the resultant poly (amidoxime) resin was used as adsorbent for copper ions. The resin was characterized qualitatively via rapid vanadium ion test and instrumentally by FT-IR spectra and SEM morphological analysis to confirm the presence of amidoxime groups. The adsorption capacity of the resin was done using the batch technique, whereas the residual copper ions content in the filtrate before and after adsorption was measured using atomic adsorption spectrometry. It was found that the maximum adsorption capacity of poly (amidoxime) resin was 115.2 mg/g at pH 7, 400ppm copper ions concentration and 0.25 g adsorbent at room temperature. The adsorption, kinetics and isothermal study of the process is scrutinized using different variables, such as pH, contact time, copper ion concentration and adsorbent dosage. Different kinetics models comprising the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order have been applied to the experimental data to envisage the adsorption kinetics. It was found from kinetic study that pseudo-second-order rate equation was better than pseudo-first-order supporting the formation of chemisorption process. While, in case of isothermal study, the examination of calculated correlation coefficient (R2) values showed that the Langmuir model provide the best fit to experimental data than Freundlich one.

Adsorption processes are widely used in different technological areas and industry sectors, thus continuously attracting attention in the scientific research and publications. Design and scale-up of these processes are essentially based on the knowledge and understanding of the adsorption kinetics and mechanism. Adsorption kinetics is usually modeled by using several well-known models including the pseudo-first and pseudo-second order models, the Elovich equation, and the intra-particle diffusion based models. However, in the scientific literature there are a significant number of cases with the inappropriate use of these models, utilization of erroneous expressions, and incorrect interpretation of the obtained results. This paper is especially focused on applications of the pseudo-second order, intra-particle diffusion and the Weber-Morris models, which are illustrated with typical examples. Finally, general recommendations for selection of the appropriate kinetic model and model assumptions, data regression analysis, and evaluation and presentation of the obtained results are outlined.

The composite weakly basic resin (D301Fe) was prepared and examined using scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The adsorption kinetics of glyphosate from aqueous solution onto composite weakly basic resin (D301Fe) were investigated under different conditions. The experimental data was analyzed using various adsorption kinetic models like pseudo-first order, the pseudo-second order, the Elovich and the parabolic diffusion models to determine the best-fit equation for the adsorption of glyphosate onto D301Fe. The results show that the pseudo-second order equation fitted the experimental data well and its adsorption was chemisorption-controlled.

Abstract This study focuses on characterizing the adsorption kinetics of sex hormones (estrone, 17β-estradiol, 17α-ethinylestradiol, and estriol) on electrospun nanofibrous polymeric nanostructures based on cellulose acetate, polyamide, polyethersulfone, polyurethane, and polyacrylonitrile. The materials’ structure possessed fibers of average diameter in the range 174-330 nm, while its specific surface area equaled 10.2 to 20.9 m2/g. The adsorption-desorption process was investigated in four cycles to determine the reusability of the sorption systems. A one-step high-performance liquid chromatography technique was developed to detect concurrently each hormone present in the solution. Experimental data was applied to gauge adsorption kinetics with the aid of pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion models; findings showed that estrone, estradiol, and ethinylestradiol followed pseudo-second-order kinetics, while estriol followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. It was observed that polyurethane had maximum adsorption capacities of 0.801, 0.590, 0.736, and 0.382 mg/g for estrone, 17β-estradiol, 17α-ethinylestradiol, and estriol, respectively. The results revealed that polyurethane had the highest percentage efficiency of estrogens removal at ~58.9% and lowest for polyacrylonitrile at ~35.1%. Consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles demonstrated that polyurethane maintained high efficiency, even after being used four times compared with the other polymers. The findings indicate the studied nanostructures have the potential to be effective sorbents for eradicating these estrogens concurrently from the environment.

Na-bentonite(NB)/poly(2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonicacid)(AMPS) composite were prepared as an adsorbent for the removal of Pb (Ⅱ) from aqueous solutions. Pb (II) adsorption on the composite is a fast process and follows well the pseudo-second-order kinetics. The FTIR spectra indicate NB and poly(AMPS) are simultaneously operating, and chelation should be the dominating adsorption mechanism.

Photocatalyst composite beads were applied as adsorbent substances in the waste water treatment process. The beads were synthesised using different photocatalyst types in sodium alginate-polyvinyl alcohol matrix (SA-PVA) as commercial ZnO (ZnO/SA-PVA), synthesised ZnO (ZnO(syn)/SA-PVA), and synthesised ZnO-graphene oxide (ZnO(syn)-GO/SA-PVA). The morphology and photocatalytic activity of the composite beads were studied utilising X-ray diffractometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy. Photocatalytic activity was studied by methylene blue removal, pseudo-first order rate (k1), pseudo-second order rate (k2), the kinetics of adsorption at equilibrium (qe), pseudo-first (K1) and pseudo-second (K2) order adsorption kinetics. The results confirmed that photocatalytic activity was enhanced by the addition of GO in the photocatalyst composite beads. The results confirmed that the MB removal efficiency of ZnO(syn)-GO/SA-PVA composite bead was the best for all conditions described by k1, k2 and qt at around 0.0139 min-1, 0.0302 L.mg-1min-1 and 8.818 mg.g-1, respectively, under visible irradiation. In addition, the adsorption kinetics system was considered by the pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order adsorption kinetics, in which ZnO(syn)-GO/SA-PVA composite beads were around 0.0259 min-1 and 0.232 g.mg-1min-1, respectively.

The use of camellia oleifera abel shells as biosorbent has been successfully demonstrated in the removal of Cr (VI) from aqueous solution. The effects of different parameters, such as, contact time, initial concentration of Cr (VI), pH and temperature on Cr (VI) adsorption were investigated. The results showed that the maximum uptake of Cr (VI) was up to 190.69 mg/g at a pH value of around 1.0, under the initial Cr (VI) concentration of 400mg/L and at the temperature of 298 K. The adsorption kinetics could be described by pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order kinetics models.
