This fundamental work deals with the biosorption removal of Co(II) using a Mycobacterium phlei strain. Several variables that have an effect on the capacity of cobalt biosorption from aqueous solution by Mycobacterium phlei were studied. particularly the effects of solution pH, initial Co(II) concentration, contact time and biomass dose. The experimental data were modeled by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. Langmuir model resulted in the best fit of the adsorption data. The maximum adsorption capacity for Co(II) was 68.22 mg/g. The best correlation was provided by the second-order kinetic model, implying that chemical sorption was the rate-limiting step. The practical implication of this study is the development of an effective and economic technology for Co(II) removal from wastewaters.

The sorption of uranium and thorium from their aqueous solutions by using 8-hydroxyquinoline modified Na-bentonite (HQ-bentonite) was investigated by the batch technique. Na-bentonite and HQ-bentonite were characterized by X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Factors that influence the sorption of uranium and thorium onto HQ-bentonite such as solution pH, contact time, initial metal ions concentration, HQ-bentonite mass, and temperature were tested. Sorption experiments were expressed by Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms and the sorption results demonstrated that the sorption of uranium and thorium onto HQ-bentonite correlated better with the Langmuir isotherm than the Freundlich isotherm. Kinetics studies showed that the sorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Thermodynamic parameters such as ΔH°, ΔS°, and ΔG° indicated that the sorption of uranium and thorium onto HQ-bentonite was endothermic, feasible, spontaneous, and physical in nature. The maximum adsorption capacities of HQ-bentonite were calculated from the Langmuir isotherm at 303 K and were found to be 63.90 and 65.44 for U(VI) and Th(IV) metal ions, respectively.

Abstract Raw beetroot seeds (BS) and H3PO4 activated beetroot seeds (H3PO4-BS) were evaluate for their effectiveness in removing methylene blue (MB) and malachite green (MG) from aqueous solution. BS were carbonized at 500°C for 2 h, and then impregnated with phosphoric acid (phosphoric acid to BS ratio of 1.5 g/g). The impregnated BS were activated in a tubular vertical furnace at 450°C for 2 h. Batch sorption experiments were carried out under various parameters, such as solution pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time, initial dyes concentration and temperature. The experimental results show that the dye sorption was influenced by solution pH and it was greater in the basic range. The sorption yield increases with an increase in the adsorbent dosage. The equilibrium uptake was increased with an increase in the initial dye concentration in solution. Adsorption kinetic data conformed more to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The experimental isotherm data were evaluated by Langmuir, Freundlich, Toth and Dubinin–Radushkevich isotherm models. The Langmuir maximum monolayer adsorption capacities were 61.11 and 74.37 mg/g for MB, 51.31 and 213.01 mg/g for MG, respectively in the case of BS and H3PO4-BS. The thermodynamic parameters are also evaluated and discussed.

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.

A novel Mg/Fe/Ce layered double hydroxide (LDHs) and its calcined product (CLDH) were synthesized and CLDH was used as adsorbents for the removal of chlorate ions. Results showed that the initial solution pH was an important factor influencing the chlorate adsorption. The adsorption behavior of chlorate followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm with a maximum adsorption capacity of 18.2 mg/g. The adsorption kinetics of chlorate on CLDH can be described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. It was concluded that the CLDH material is a potential adsorbent for the purification of polluted water with chlorate.

This research investigates the adsorption potential of pine cones powder (PCP) for the removal of copper ions (Cu(II)) from aqueous solutions. The process of adsorption was reasonably fast to be completed within a time of 60 min. The pseudo-second order kinetic model describes properly the Cu(II) adsorption by PCP. The adsorbent was characterised by various instrumental techniques and batch experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of PCP dose, solution pH, particle size and initial Cu(II) concentration on adsorption efficiency. Optimum Cu(II) removal occurred at a slightly acidic pH, with a particle size less than 100 ?m. The effective PCP dose was estimated to be 36 g.L-1. The increase in the initial concentration of Cu (II) was accompanied by a reduction in the rate of its reduction by almost half. The Langmuir model was the best fitting isotherm with a maximum adsorption capacity of 9.08 mg.g-1. The thermodynamic parameters values showed that the Cu(II) adsorption was a spontaneous and endothermic process. The results of this research suggest that Cu(II) could be removed through an environmentally friendly process using PCP as low-cost natural wastes.

In this study, an aluminosilicate residue from insulators of high voltage transformers was used for the adsorption of basic dyes. The absorbent was characterized by X-ray fluorescence analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy, multimolecular adsorption theory (Branauer-Emmet-Teller (BET)) and determination of the point of zero charge (pHPZC). The effect of solution pH and adsorbent mass, the kinetic and thermodynamic behavior at different temperatures and the application of non-linear isotherm models of Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushevich were investigated. The pHPZC value for the aluminosilicate was 3.7. The best conditions for adsorption of methylene blue and crystal violet dyes were pH 8.0 and adsorbent mass of 1100 mg in 25 mL. The best fit for the experimental data was obtained applying the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, with an equilibrium time of 480 to 720 min, and the activation energy suggests a physical adsorption mechanism. Isothermal parameters suggest a heterogeneous, favorable and predominantly physical surface adsorption. The thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption process is not spontaneous and is exothermic and the Gibbs energy values (ΔGº) suggest physisorption.

High amounts of ammonium (NH4+) discharged in receiving water can lead to eutrophication. The adsorption of NH4+ from synthetic solution onto granular activated carbon (GAC) was scrutinized with respect to initial solute concentration (10 mg L−1), solution volume (0.2 L), adsorbent dosage (4 – 20 g), and contact time. Experimental data can be well described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R2 > 0.994) and Freundlich isotherm model (R2 = 0.936), suggesting that chemisorption and multilayer adsorption occurred. Furthermore, this study explored the feasibility of using the Freundlich isotherm model to estimate the removal efficiency or required amount of adsorbent. The result findings indicated that GAC has a good potential to adsorb NH4+ from water and thus giving new insights into environmental engineering practices.
