The uptake of Co(II) on graphene oxide (GO) by an adsorption process as a function of pH and ionic strength in the absence and presence of humic acid (HA) or fulvic acid (FA) was studied using batch technique. The results indicated that the uptake is strongly dependent on pH but independent of ionic strength. A stimulative effect of HA/FA on Co(II) uptake was found at pH < 7.0, whereas an inhibitory effect was observed at pH > 7.0. Kinetic studies suggest that Co(II) uptake on GO could be described more favorably by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The uptake isotherms can be described better by the Langmuir, Freundlich, and D-R models than by the linear model. The thermodynamic data calculated from the temperature-dependent uptake isotherms suggests that the uptake of Co(II) on GO is spontaneous and endothermic. Results of this work are of great importance for the environmental application of GO in the treatment of Co(II) from wastewater and indicated that GO is promising for the natural attenuation of Co(II) and related metal ions from aqueous solution.

Dead streptomyces rimosus was found to be an effective biosorbent for the removal of chromium from industrial tanning effluents. A sorption level of 65 mg/g was observed at pH 4.8 while the precipitation effect augmented this value at a higher pH range. Chromium desorption increased with decreasing desorption agents pH (including HCl and H2SO4) to a maximum value of 95% at approximately zero pH. The biosorption data of trivalent chromium by streptomyces rimosus has been used for kinetic studies based on fractional power, Elovich, pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order rate expressions. The time-dependent Cr (III) biosorption data were well-described by a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The intraparticle diffusion is not the rate-limiting step for the whole reaction. It was found that the biosorption equilibrium data fit well with the Langmuir model.

This study was carried out to evaluate the environmental application of functionalized carbon nanotubes through the experimental removal of strontium (II) from water. The aim was to find the optimal condition for the removal of strontium from water under different conditions such as initial concentration of strontium, contact time and neutral pH. The functionalized multi wall carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNT) were characterized by FT-IR and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The adsorption isotherms were correlated to Freundlich and Langmuir models and it was found that the adsorption data could be fitted better by Langmuir model than Freundlich one. The kinetic data shows that the adsorption describes well with the pseudo-second order kinetic model. Functionalized MWCNT can be used as good adsorbent for the removal of the strontium ions from polluted water according to results.

<p>The present study is based on the adsorption of cadmium (II) ions on rice husk and egussi peeling, unmodified and modified with nitric acid in aqueous solution, using batch technique. It was carried out as a function of contact time, dosage, pH and initial concentration. The equilibrium time was achieved within 25 minutes for unmodified rice husk (Glu NT) and 20 minutes for unmodified egussi peeling (Cuc NT) with an adsorbed quantity of 13.18 mg/g. In the case of modified materials, we obtained 15 minutes for modified rice husk (Glu HNO3) and 10 minutes for modified egussi peeling (Cuc HNO3) with an adsorbed quantity of 18.77 mg/g. The maximum biosorption occurred at pH 5.5 for all biosorbents. The adsorbent mass for maximum adsorption was 0.4 g giving an adsorption capacity of 62.02 % for unmodified adsorbents. In the case of modified adsorbents, the minimal mass at which maximum adsorption occurred was 0.4 g giving an adsorption capacity of 98.33 % and 0.6 g giving an adsorption capacity of 98.33 % for modified rice husk and egussi peeling respectively. The adsorbent/adsorbate equilibrium was well described by the pseudo-second order kinetic model and by Langmuir’s and Freundlich adsorption model. This models showed that the adsorption of cadmium (II) is a chemisorption process.</p>

Glucomannan/graphene oxide (GM/GO) hydrogel was synthesized by using calcium hydroxide as the crosslinker. The synthesized material was characterized by using IR, XRD, SEM, EDX and RAMAN technology. The composite hydrogel was used for removal of organic dyes from aqueous solution. The results showed that the GM/GO hydrogel had a porous structure and a high adsorption capacity toward methylene blue (MB). The pseudo-second-order kinetic model could fit the rate equation of MB adsorption onto the GM/GO hydrogel. The adsorption of MB onto GM/GO hydrogel was a spontaneous process. In addition, the equilibrium adsorption isotherm data indicated that equilibrium data were fitted to the Langmuir isotherm and the maximum dye adsorption capacity was 198,69 mg.g-1. Moreover, the hydrogel was stable and easily recovered and adsorption capacity was around 97% of the initial saturation adsorption capacity after being used five times.

Batch Biosorption

The objective of this study is to assess the environmentaly friendly Ni(II) adsorption from synthetic wastewater using Pseudomonas alcaligenes biomass (PA-2). The ability of PA-2 to remove the Ni(II) ions was investigated by using batch biosorption procedure. The effects such as pH, dosage of biosorbent, Ni(II) initial concentration and sorbate–sorbent contact time and agitating speed on the adsorption capacities of PA-2 were studied. Biosorption equilibriums were rapidly established in about 60 min and the adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second order kinetic model. The maximum Ni(II) adsorption capacity determined from Langmuir isotherm were 82.23 mg/g PA-2 at pH 5.0, at 25±2°C and shaker speed 150 rpm, respectively. The carboxyl , hydroxyl and amino groups of the PA-2 were involved in chemical interaction with the Ni(II) ions depicted by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic (FTIR) results. The study points to the potential of new use of Pseudomonas alcaligenes biomass as an effective biosorbent for the removal of Ni(II) and from environmental and industrial wastewater.

In the present study, initially Aspergillus niger was tested for biosorption of Pb(II) ions and then studied the effect of pretreatment for enhanced biosorption. It was found that the maximum biosorption potential was achieved with citric acid treatment (70.56 %) in comparison with the biomass without treatment (65.46 %) at a biosorbent dose of 20 mg/L, pH 4, 100 rpm, 37 ºC for 8 h. The optimized conditions for treated Aspergillus niger were determined by optimizing the biosorption parameters such as pH, temperature, biomass dose, incubation time and agitation speed. This study indicates that the citric acid treated Aspergillus niger is an effective biosorbent for removal of lead (II) at optimized conditions with the maximum biosorption potential of 83.6 % as compared to previous reported work. SEM-EDX and FTIR analysis showed the structural variations and the functional groups involved in lead biosorption, respectively. Biosorption kinetics showed that pseudo second order kinetic model as the better fit.

Alkaline deoxygenated graphene oxide (aGO) was prepared through alkaline hydrothermal treatment and used as adsorbent to remove Cd(II) ions from aqueous solutions for the first time. The characterization results of transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra indicate that aGO was successfully synthesized. The batch adsorption experiments showed that the adsorption kinetics could be described by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and the isotherms equilibrium data were well fitted with the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cd(II) on aGO was 156 mg/g at pH 5 and T = 293 K. The adsorption thermodynamic parameters indicated that the adsorption process was a spontaneous and endothermic reaction. The mainly adsorption mechanism speculated from FT-IR results may be attributed to the electrostatic attraction between Cd2+ and negatively charged groups (–CO−) of aGO and cation-π interaction between Cd2+ and the graphene planes. The findings of this study demonstrate the potential utility of the nanomaterial aGO as an effective adsorbent for Cd(II) removal from aqueous solutions.

Pomelo peel was esterified with acetic anhydride using 4-dimethyl-amino pyridine as a catalyst under reaction temperature of 60 °C and duration of 3 h. At 0.1 g 4-dimethyl-amino pyridine of the catalyst in 80 ml acetic anhydride, the highest sorption values of 14.95 g/g diesel and 18.39 g/g lubricating oil were achieved, which was found to be much higher than raw pomelo peel. FTIR and SEM studies produced evidence for acetylation. The sorption kinetics and reusability were studied. The kinetic studies show good correlation coefficients for a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. This work demonstrated that pomelo peel modified by acetic anhydride is an efficient and environment-friendly biosorbent for the removal of spilled oil.

Concern about environmental protection has increased over the years and the presence of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in water poses a threat to the environment. In this study, coconut shell activated carbon (PHAC) was produced by potassium hydroxide activation via microwave for benzene and toluene removal. Equilibrium data were fitted to Langmuir, Freundlich and Tempkin isotherms with all the models having R2 > 0.94. The equilibrium data were best fitted by Langmuir isotherm, with maximum adsorption capacity of 212 and 238mg/g for benzene and toluene, respectively. The equilibrium parameter (RL) falls between 0 and 1 confirming the favourability of the Langmuir model. Pseudo-second-order kinetic model best fitted the kinetic data. The PHAC produced can be used to remediate water polluted by VOCs.

Biosorption of lead onto Fallen Coffee Plant leaves (FCPL) powder from an aqueous solution was studied in the present study. The characterization of FCPL powder was done by FTIR, XRD, SEM and BET. The equilibrium agitation time for lead biosorption is 60 min. The optimum pH and dosage values are 5.2 and 20 g/L respectively. In the range of variables studied, percentage biosorption is increased from 75.1 to 95.5 %. The maximum uptake capacity of 3.664 mg/g is obtained at 303 K. In the present investigation the equilibrium data was well explained by Langmuir, Redlich-Peterson with a correlation coefficient of 0.99, and followed by Temkin and Freundlich isotherms. The kinetic studies reveal that the biosorption system obeyed the pseudo second order kinetic model by considering the correlation coefficient value as 0.99. From the values of ∆S, ∆H and ∆G it is observed that the biosorption of lead onto Fallen coffee plant leaves(FCPL) powder was irreversible, endothermic and spontaneous.
