Equilibrium and kinetic adsorption study of aqueous basic dye solutions using waste foundry sand

International Journal of Global Warming, 2017

The aim of this study is to evaluate adsorption kinetics, isotherms and thermodynamic parameters of crystal violet (CV) and methylene blue (MB) dyes from aqueous solution using waste foundry sand. Adsorption studies were carried out at different initial dye concentrations (12.5-400 mg l-1), contact time (5-240 min), pH (3.0-9.0), sorbent doses (0.125-2 g l-1) and adsorption temperature (20°C-70°C). The equilibrium adsorption data were analysed by Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin-Radushkevich (DRK) adsorption isotherm models. Of the four adsorption isotherms, the R 2 value of Langmuir isotherm model for MB and CV were 0.969 and 0.926, respectively. Experimental data were analysed using the pseudo-first order, the pseudo-second order, intraparticle diffusion and Elovich models. The characteristic parameters for each model have been determined. In addition, the equilibrium thermodynamic parameters, including changes in Gibbs free energy, entropy and enthalpy are determined for the CV and MB on waste foundry sand.

I Modified Waste Materials for Removal of Cationic Dye from Liquid Effluents and Their Kinetic Studies

N the present paper, natural adsorbents such as starch, …..sawdust (collected from a local sawmill) and orange peel were grafted in order to remove C.I. Basic Blue 41 (BB 41) from aqueous solution by adsorption. Batch mode experiments were conducted at 30ºC to study the effects of pH, adsorbent mass and contact time (0-240 min). Equilibrium adsorption isotherms and kinetics were investigated. The experimental adsorption data were analyzed by the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The results showed that adsorption capacity is dependent on the pH, initial concentration of dye and contact time. Changes in the surface chemical groups in the adsorbent starch, orange peel and sawdust waste materials were investigated via Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). In the case of starch and sawdust the OH group after grafting is reduced while the carboxylic group is increased and vice versa after adsorption of a dye, indicating that the adsorption of dye is occurred between carboxylic groups and cationic group in basic dye. But in the case of orange peel the result is conversely. Equilibrium isotherms were well described by the Langmuir equation, giving maximum adsorption capacity of 19.2 mg/g by sawdust adsorbent at 30 • C. The adsorption kinetics can be well represented by the pseudo-second-order model equation.

Utilization of industrial waste products as adsorbents for the removal of dyes

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2003

A number of low cost adsorbents from steel and fertilizer industries wastes have been prepared and investigated for the removal of anionic dyes such as ethyl orange, metanil yellow and acid blue 113 from aqueous solutions. The results indicate that inorganic wastes, i.e. blast furnace dust, sludge and slag from steel plants are not suitable for the removal of organic materials, whereas a carbonaceous adsorbent prepared from carbon slurry of fertilizer industry was found to adsorb 198, 211 and 219 mg/g of ethyl orange, metanil yellow and acid blue 113, respectively. The adsorption of dyes on this adsorbent was studied as a function of contact time, concentration, particle size and temperature by batch method. The adsorption isotherm conformed to Langmuir model and the adsorption was found to be exothermic and physical in nature. Kinetic data conforms to Lagergren’s equation with good correlation coefficients varying from 0.9998 to 0.9999 indicating that the adsorption is a first-order process. The adsorption data on carbonaceous adsorbent was compared to a standard activated charcoal sample and it was found that the prepared adsorbent is about 80% as efficient as standard activated charcoal and therefore, can be used as low cost alternative (∼US$ 100 per ton) for colour removal from effluents.

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2009

In this paper, pineapple stem (PS) waste, an agricultural waste available in large quantity in Malaysia, was utilized as low-cost adsorbent to remove basic dye (methylene blue, MB) from aqueous solution by adsorption. Batch mode experiments were conducted at 30 • C to study the effects of initial concentration of methylene blue, contact time and pH on dye adsorption. Equilibrium adsorption isotherms and kinetic were investigated. The experimental data were analyzed by the Langmuir and Freundlich models and the isotherm data fitted well to the Langmuir isotherm with monolayer adsorption capacity of 119.05 mg/g. The kinetic data obtained at different concentrations were analyzed using a pseudo-firstorder and pseudo-second-order equation and intraparticle diffusion equation. The experimental data fitted very well the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The PS was found to be very effective adsorbent for MB adsorption.

Kinetic and isotherm studies of adsorption processes in the removal of reactive dyes from aqueous solutions

IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering

This work was aimed to evaluate the capability of activated carbon prepared from Bamboo (Bambusa bambos) stems (BS) to remove two reactive dyes, which are Malachite Green G (MGG) and Reactive Red 2 (RR2) from aqueous media. The presently proposed activated carbon was prepared using the chemical activation. The activated carbon was also characterized by means of the Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy. To investigate the kinetic and isotherm characteristics, the adsorption tests were carried out in a batch experiment and then several mathematical models were employed for describing the experimental data. The present work has found that the proposed activated carbon was capable to remove the dyes with an adsorption capacity of 3.80 mg/g and 2.22 mg/g of MGG and RR2, respectively, for 60 min. The equilibrium data were described well by Freundlich isotherm model for both MGG and RR2. The pseudo-second-order model performed well the experimental kinetic data.

Adsorption process for removing hazardous Congo red dye from aqueous solutions: isotherm, kinetic, and thermodynamic studies

DESALINATION AND WATER TREATMENT

The removal of Congo red dye from aqueous solutions by adsorption reaction onto three distinct adsorbents: graphene oxide (GO), graphene oxide-grafted-3,3'-diaminobenzidine (GO/ DAB), and GO/DAB-grafted-ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (GO/DAB/EDTA) was investigated in batch experiments. The study of the effects of pH and contacting time on adsorption systems is the first step in optimizing them. The results revealed that depending on the type of adsorbent, the optimum pH values and periods differed. The Congo red (CR) dye adsorptions onto the investigated adsorbents GO, GO/DAB, and GO/DAB/EDTA required pH (3.0, 7.0, and 5.0, respectively) and time (60, 30, and 45 min). The fundamental adsorption properties of the dye were evaluated using adsorption equilibrium isotherms, namely the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin-Radushkevich models. The maximum adsorption values (q max) were calculated using the Langmuir isotherm results, and they were 1,250; 1,428.5 and 1,438.1 mg/g for the adsorption of CR dye onto adsorbents GO, GO/DAB, and GO/DAB/EDTA, respectively, and these results proved the preference for prepared GO-derivatives over GO. The kinetic models, namely pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order, were employed to understand the mechanism of the adsorption process, and they fitted very well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, which relies on the assumption that chemisorption may be the rate-limiting step. This study reveals that the presence of functional groups and active sites on the studied adsorbent contributed to its high affinity for CR dye adsorption. As a result, they can be used as efficient and cost-effective dye adsorbents in industrial effluent. Thermodynamic parameters including enthalpy ΔH°, entropy ΔS°, free energy ΔG°, and activation energy E a of the adsorption process were calculated and used to interpret the results, which revealed that the adsorption systems were a spontaneous and endothermic process for GO and its composites. Also, low activation energy values (E a < 40 kJ/mol) were characteristics of the physisorption mechanism and diffusion-controlled process.
