Ferrocyanide adsorption on aluminum oxides (original) (raw)

Adsorption of Ferricyanide Ion onActivated Carbon and γ-Alumina

E-Journal of Chemistry, 2010

Iron-cyanide complexes are present in soil and ground water due to anthropogenic inputs. We compared the adsorption of ferricyanide ion, on two commercial activated carbons (COM3 and COM4) and γ-alumina (A1G) in aqueous solution. Isotherm parameters obtained from batch experiments of iron-cyanide complex adsorption on these adsorbents were carried-out. The mass of the adsorbents were varied at 40 mg, 60 mg and 100 mg and the inorganic ion initial concentrations, Coalso varied between 3.04×10-4and 2.43×10-3mol/L. The equilibrium data obtained were tested by using the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. These data fit well with the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models at this low inorganic ion initial concentration.

Equilibrium and kinetic studies of ferricyanide adsorption from aqueous solution by activated red mud

Journal of environmental management, 2018

In this study, activated red mud (ARM) was used as a new adsorbent for the removal of ferricyanide anions from aqueous solution. Based on the percentage of ferricyanide removal and ferricyanide adsorption capacity, optimum conditions were evaluated using the response surface method (RSM) and central composite design (CCD). In optimum conditions (pH = 5.6, adsorbent dosage of 2.59 g, ferricyanide concentration of 60 ppm and contact time of 60 min), the percentage of ferricyanide removal and ferricyanide adsorption capacity were obtained as 79.6% and 1.8 mg/g, respectively. The kinetics and equilibrium studies were evaluated by considering the effective parameters including pH and ferricyanide concentration. Kinetic studies were evaluated by kinetic models of pseudo first-order, pseudo-second-order (four different linearized forms), Elovich and intraparticle diffusion. The results of the kinetic study indicated that the mechanism of ferricyanide adsorption onto the ARM adsorbent is a ...
