The materials were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, high-resolution scanning electron microscopic (HR-SEM) analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, and a vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM). The effect of several parameters, such as pH, time, temperature, adsorbent dose, etc., were investigated. The adsorption isotherm of Cu(II) was adjusted best to the Langmuir model. The maximum adsorption capacities were 111.11 mg/g, 41.66 mg/g, and 15.38 mg/g for AVMNCABs, AVCABs, and CABs, respectively. The study of the adsorption kinetics for Cu(II) ions on beads followed a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, with a very good correlation in all cases. The adsorption studies used a spectrophoto...

The material was characterized by FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopic), XRD (X-ray Diffraction) and TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy). The arsenic removal capacity of the material was studied by altering variables such as pH of the solution, contact time, adsorbent dose and adsorbate concentration. The maximal removal of As(III) was 99.56% under optimal conditions with an equilibrium time of 110 min and pH 7.0–7.5. The adsorption followed a second order kinetics and data best fitted the Langmuir isotherm with a correlation coefficient of R2 = 0.9890 and adsorption capacity (qm) of 6.6533 mg/g. The thermodynamic study showed entropy change (∆S) and enthalpy change (∆H) to be 34.32 J mol−1 K and 5.25 kJ mol−1, respectively. This study prov...
