MnO2 nanosheets were synthesized with tetramethylamine, H2O2, MnCl2·4H2O and its suspension were prepared for its high efficient removal of methylene blue (MB). MB removal reached as high as 95% when MB concentrations were less than 500 mg/L at pH 11. The adsorption data fitted better with Freundlich isotherm model than Langmuir model indicating the heterogeneous adsorption nature of MB on MnO2 nanosheets. The maximum adsorption capacity of MnO2 nanosheets was ~4,300 mg/g, which is the highest reported so far. The MnO2 nanosheets suspension was aggregated as precipitates after adsorption of MB. Our results demonstrated that dispersive MnO2 nanosheets have a potential application on adsorption of organics from solution with strong base and high salinity.

Adsorption Parameters

In the present study, the efficiency of biosorbent derived form Pongamiapinata to remove a basic textile dye Methylene Blue from an aqueous solution was evaluated in batch system. The influence of adsorption parameters such as biosorbent dosage (0.2-1.0g/L), PH (2-10) and initial dye concentration (30-110 mg/L) on the biosorption process was studied. It was noticed that adsorbent dosage has negative effect on dye uptake, could be due to reduced mass transfer rate of dye on to adsorbent. High equilibrium uptake was observed at PH 8. However, initial dye concentration has shown linear relationship with dye uptake. As the dye concentration increases, the number of dye molecules available to be adsorbed on to adsorbent surface increases. Equilibrium isotherms for the adsorption of methylene blue was analyzed through Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The data best fit with Freundlich model than Langmuir isotherm model, suggesting the adsorption was by multilayer mechanism. Maximum adsorption capacity (Q ̊) was found to be 40.49mg/g. It can be concluded from the study that the adsorbent derived from P.pinnata can be a potential low cost competent of activated carbon for textile dyes removal.

Activated carbons were prepared from Lapsi seed stone by the treatment with H2SO4 and HNO3 for the removal of Ni (II) ions from aqueous solution. Two activated carbon have been prepared from Lapsi seed stones by treating with conc.H2SO4 and a mixture of H2SO4 and HNO3 in the ratio of 1:1 by weight for removal of Ni(II) ions. Chemical characterization of the resultant activated carbons was studied by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and Boehm titration which revealed the presence of oxygen containing surface functional groups like carboxyl, lactones and phenols in the carbons. The optimum pH for nickel adsorption is found to be 5. The adsorption data were better fitted with the Langmuir equations than Freundlich adsorption equation to describe the equilibrium isotherms. The maximum adsorption capacity of Ni (II) on the resultant activated carbons was 28.25.8 mg g-1 with H2SO4 and 69.49 mg g-1 with a mixture of H2SO4 and HNO3. The waste material used in the preparation of the activated carbons is inexpensive and readily available. Hence the carbons prepared from Lapsi seed stones can act as potential low cost adsorbents for the removal of Ni (II) from water.

Results of investigation on adsorption of Mn2+ from aqueous solution by manganese oxide-coated hollow polymethylmethacrylate microspheres (MHPM) are reported here. This is the first report on Mn-coated hollow polymer as a substitute for widely used materials like green sand or MN-coated sand. Hollow polymethylmethacrylate (HPM) was prepared by using a literature procedure. Manganese oxide (MnO) was coated on the surface of HPM (MHPM) by using the electroless plating technique. The HPM and MHPM were characterized by using optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Optical and scanning micrographs were used to monitor the surface properties of the coated layer which revealed the presence of MnO on the surface of HPM. TGA showed the presence of 4-5% of MnO in MHPM. Adsorption isotherm studies were carried out as a function of pH, initial ion concentration, and contact time, to determine the adsorption efficiency for removal of Mn2+ from contaminated water by the synthesized MHPM. The isotherm results showed that the maximum adsorption capacity of MnO-coated HPM to remove manganese contaminants from water is 8.373 mg/g. The obtained R 2 values of Langmuir isotherm and Freundlich isotherm models were 1 and 0.87, respectively. Therefore, R 2 magnitude confirmed that the Langmuir model is best suited for Mn2+ adsorption by a monolayer of MHPM adsorbent. The material developed shows higher adsorption capacity even at a higher concentration of solute ions, which is not usually observed with similar materials of this kind. Overall findings indicate that MHPM is a very potential lightweight adsorbent for removal of Mn2+ from the aqueous solution because of its low density and high surface area.

Abstract The surface characteristics as well as adsorption potential of activated cow bone char for the removal of methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution were investigated. Physical characteristics of the adsorbent revealed a large surface area, low pore volume, reduced ash and moisture contents, which have been identified as good adsorption characteristics. The surface of the adsorbent was predominated by mesopores with a few microporous structures as well as the presence of carbonates, phosphates, silicates and hydroxyl groups which are characteristic of the apatite phase. Adsorption efficiency for the removal of MB was observed to be influenced by pH, adsorbent dosage as well as initial dye concentrations. Equilibrium adsorption data was best described by the Freundlich isotherm with a good correlation coefficient suggesting multilayer adsorption of the dye molecules on the surface of the adsorbent. Based on the drive for reduced cost, removal efficiency and availability, activated carbon from cow bone could be a promising adsorbent for methylene blue-laden effluent that could be utilized in small and large industrial applications.

This work reports the feasibility of using pristine and chemically modified coral limestones by acid and base. Their potential adsorptive capabilities is probed by treatment of toxic Cr(VI), Pb(II) ions and methylene blue in aqueous solution under different experimental parameters by batch method. Parameters such as agitation time, concentration, temperature and pH were varied to understand the sorption behaviour of the adsorbents in each case. The adsorbents were characterized by SEM, XRD and FTIR. Morphological analysis by SEM micrographs show that the surface of all adsorbents was irregular in nature. XRD spectra confirmed the orthorhombic structure of aragonite in the pristine coral limestones (PCL), acid modified coral limestones (ACL) and base modified coral limestones (BCL). FTIR results affirmed the presence of (CO3 2-) and (-C=O) groups of the carbonate ions and Ca-O attachment to the surface of PCL and removal of CaCO3 characteristic peaks in ACL and BCL. However, in the modified adsorbents shifting of Ca-O peaks occurred. The recorded maximum adsorption capacities of PCL, ACL and BCL for Cr(VI) ions were 69.42, 65.04, 64.88 mg/g, Pb(II) ions 39.36, 74.11, 78.34 mg/g and methylene blue 37.24, 46.28, 46.39 mg/g, respectively. The uptake of Pb(II), Cr(VI) ions, methylene blue onto PCL fitted Freundlich model. Also the uptake of Cr(VI) ions and methylene blue onto ACL and BCL fitted Freundlich isotherm. However, uptake of Pb(II) ions onto both ACL and BCL fitted Langmuir isotherm. The data revealed that the adsorption of Pb(II) ions onto PCL and ACL and methylene blue dye onto PCL was exothermic. Whilst the adsorption of Cr(VI) ions onto PCL, ACL and BCL and methylene blue dye onto ACL and BCL were endothermic in nature, hence increasing the temperature would enhance the uptake of Pb(II) ions onto BCL, Cr(VI) ions onto ACL and BCL and methylene blue onto ACL and BCL. The obtained (ΔGº) values at all studied temperatures for the adsorption of Pb(II), Cr(VI) ions and methylene blue onto PLC, ACL and BCL indicated a spontaneous process.

Abstract A novel magnetic bio-adsorbent (MCIA) was developed, characterized and tested for its Cd(II) removal from aqueous solution. MCIA could be easily separated from the solution after equilibrium adsorption due to its super-paramagnetic property. The functional and magnetic bio-material was an attractive adsorbent for the removal of Cd(II) from aqueous solution owing to the abundant adsorption sites, amino-group and oxygen-containing groups on the surface of Cyclosorus interruptus. The experimental results indicated that the MCIA exhibited excellent adsorption ability and the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. The adsorption isotherm was consistent with the Langmuir model. The adsorption kinetic fitted the pseudo-second-order model very well. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cd(II) onto MCIA was 40.8, 49.4, 54.6 and 56.6 mg/g at 293, 303, 313 and 323 K, respectively. And the MCIA exhibited an excellent reusability and impressive regeneration. Therefore, MCIA could serve as a sustainable, efficient and low-cost magnetic adsorbent for Cd(II) removal from aqueous solution.
