The sugarcane bagasse and modified sugarcane bagasse with 1.0 M H2SO4 were used as adsorbents for removal of the direct red 80 in batch adsorption process. The effect on the initial concentration of the direct red 80, at 215.8 - 1028.9 mg/L, was thoroughly investigated in batch adsorption system. It was fount that the point of zero charge of sugarcane bagasse and modified sugarcane bagasse were pH 4.9 and 2.0, respectively. The adsorption capacity increased with initial concentration of direct red 80. The experimental results showed that adsorption capacity onto 1.0 g of sugarcane bagasse and modified sugarcane bagasse for direct red 80 initial concentration 1,028.9 mg/L were 4.2 and 28.9 mg/g, respectively. The Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms were applied to describe the direct red 80 uptake, which could be described by Langmuir isotherm onto both adsorbents.

To remove the pollutant methylene blue (MB) from water, a sheet-like skeleton carbon derived from shaddock peels (SPACs) was prepared by NaOH activation followed by a calcination procedure under nitrogen protection in this study. Characterization results demonstrated that the as-prepared SPACs displayed a hierarchically porous structure assembled with a thin sheet-like carbon layer, and the surface area of SPAC-8 (activated by 8 g NaOH) was up to 782.2 m2/g. The as-prepared carbon material presented an ultra-fast and efficient adsorption capacity towards MB due to its macro-mesoporous structure, high surface area, and abundant functional groups. SPAC-8 showed ultrafast and efficient removal capacity for MB dye. Adsorption equilibrium was reached within 1 min with a removal efficiency of 99.6% at an initial concentration of 100 mg/g under batch adsorption model conditions. The maximum adsorption capacity for MB was up to 432.5 mg/g. A pseudo-second-order kinetic model and a Langmuir isotherm model described the adsorption process well, which suggested that adsorption rate depended on chemisorption and the adsorption process was controlled by a monolayer adsorption, respectively. Furthermore, column adsorption experiments showed that 96.58% of MB was removed after passing through a SPAC-8 packed column with a flow rate of 20 mL/min, initial concentration of 50 mg/L, and adsorbent dosage of 5 mg. The as-prepared adsorbent displays potential value in practical applications for dye removal due to its ultrafast and efficient adsorption capacity.

AbstractGlobal access to sanitary water is of utmost importance to human health. Presently, textile dye water pollution and cigarette pollution are both plaguing the environment. Herein, waste cigarette filters (CFs) are converted into useful carbon-based adsorbent materials via a facile, microwave-assisted carbonization procedure. The CFs are activated and co-doped with phosphorus and nitrogen simultaneously to enhance their surface characteristics and adsorbent capability by introducing chemisorptive binding sites to the surface. The doped carbonized CF (DCCF) and undoped carbonized CF (CCF) adsorbents are characterized physically to examine their surface area, elemental composition, and surface charge properties. The maximum adsorption capacity of synthesized adsorbents was determined via batch adsorption experiments and Langmuir modelling. Additionally, the influence of different parameters on the adsorption process was studied by varying the adsorption conditions such as adsorbent dosage, initial concentration, contact time, temperature, and pH. The DCCF adsorbent showed a maximum adsorption capacity of 303 mg g− 1. Adsorption of both adsorbents fit best to Langmuir model and pseudo-second order kinetics, indicating chemisorptive mechanism. Both adsorbents showed endothermic adsorption process which is indicated by increasing adsorption capacity with increased temperatures. DCCF exhibited greater adsorption capability than CCF at all temperatures from 25 to 55 °C. The pH of the solution significantly affected the adsorption capacity of CCF while DCCF adsorption is favorable at a wide pH range due to low value of the adsorbent’s point of zero charge. Reusability results showed that both adsorbents can be used over several cycles for removal of dye. Thus, results conclude that the waste DCCF-based adsorbent does not only show a profound potential as a sustainable solution to combat textile dye water pollution but also addresses the valuable use of the CF pollution simultaneously. This approach, which can target two major pollutants, is attractive due to its ease of preparation, negligible cost, and versatility in application.

Eutrophication is an inevitable phenomenon, and it has recently become an unabated threat. As a positive, the thriving microalgal biomass in eutrophic water is conventionally perceived to be loaded with myriad valuable biochemical compounds. Therefore, a sugarcane-bagasse-based adsorbent was proposed in this study to harvest the microalgal biomass for producing biodiesel. By activating the sugarcane-bagasse-based adsorbent with 1.5 M of H2SO4, a highest adsorption capacity of 108.9 ± 0.3 mg/g was attained. This was fundamentally due to the surface potential of the 1.5 M H2SO4 acid-modified sugarcane-bagasse-based adsorbent possessing the lowest surface positivity value as calculated from its point of zero charge. The adsorption capacity was then improved to 192.9 ± 0.1 mg/g by stepwise optimizing the adsorbent size to 6.7–8.0 mm, adsorption medium pH to 2–4, and adsorbent dosage to 0.4 g per 100 mL of adsorption medium. This resulted in 91.5% microalgae removal efficiency. Excellent-quality biodiesel was also obtained as reflected by the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profile, showing the dominant species of C16–C18 encompassing 71% of the overall FAMEs. The sustainability of harvesting microalgal biomass via an adsorption-enhanced flocculation processes was also evidenced by the potentiality to reuse the spent acid-modified adsorbent.

Abstract The present manuscript reports the removal of arsenic from aqueous solution using iron oxide composite of carbon derived from the plant material Prosopis spicigera L. wood which depletes the ground water of ponds, lakes and other water bodies. The adsorbent was characterised by Fourier Transform Infra Red spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscope for surface analysis; Brunauer–Emmett–Teller and methylene blue method for surface area determination and pHzpc for surface charge determination. Experimental conditions such as pH, contact time, adsorbate initial concentration and in the presence other ions are varied to study the batch adsorption equilibrium experiment. The adsorption process was tested with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm model and Langmuir isotherm was best suited. Sorption kinetics was analysed with pseudo-first- and second-order kinetics but adsorption follows second order kinetics. For an initial concentration of 60 mg/L of As(III) ions, adsorption capacity was found to be 83.84 mg/g at pH = 6.0. Thermodynamically the adsorption process is spontaneous, feasible and endothermic in nature. Adsorption involves pore diffusion, external mass transfer and complex formation. Column study was performed to apply this process for large scale treatment.
