The kinetic study of methylene blue (MB) adsorption using acid-activated spent tea (AAST) as an adsorbent from aqueous solution with the aim of comparing linear and non-linear regression analysis methods was performed at varying initial MB concentrations (10-100 mg/l). Hence, spent tea leaves, which were activated using concentrated sulfuric acid, were prepared. The physicochemical characterist...

adsorption capacity of 4-chloro-2-nitrophenol (4c2np) onto nano-ti02 from aqueous solutions wasinvestigated in a batch system by considering the effects of various parameters like contact time, nano-tio2 dosage, initial ph and initial 4c2np concentration. optimum conditions for 4c2np adsorptionwere found to be initial ph z 2, nano-tio2 closer- 0.01 g and equilibrium time 1 h. the adsorptionkine...

This study examined adsorption of anionic dye on four zeolitic materials incorporated (VS-1, CuZSM-5) and not into metals (S-1, ZSM-5). The the bromothymol blue (BTB) adsorbents was analysed using isotherm models Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin. Two kinetic were also applied to process, pseudo-first order pseudo-second order. isothermal data showed good correlation. kinetics better described by mo...

An agricultural by-product waste: orange peel was tested for the removal of four acid dyes from aqueous solutions in batch conditions. As results obtained, kinetics of dyes sorption was time of contact, initial dyes concentration and dyes type dependent. The pseudo second-order reaction rate model adequately described the kinetics of dyes sorption with high correlation coefficients. Langmuir mo...

The present work aims to investigate the removal of dye Rhodamine-B (RB) and Congo red (CR) dye from aqueous solutions by low cost bio-waste adsorbents, such as Maranta arundinacea activated carbon (MAC) under various experimental conditions. The effect of dye concentrations, contact time, temperature and adsorbent dose on the removal of dyes was studied. The kinetic experimental data were fitt...

Nickel (Ni) as a heavy metal due to its toxicity should be removed from wastewater and aquatic environments  using  efficient  technology.  The  aim  of this  study  was  to  remove  Ni  from  an aqueous  solution  using  palm  leaf  ash  produced  in  a  furnace.  To  do  so,  kinetic  and thermodynamic experiments were conducted on the adsorption process. Moreover, the effect of time, pH, ads...

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles surface-modified by 5-sulfosalicylic acid 5-SA-TiO2 were prepared in ethanol by the chemisorption process. The effects of surface improvement on the photocatalytic degradation and adsorption of methyl orange MO were studied in a batch system by considering the various parameters, such as contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH, initial dye concentration and temperature...

An ion imprinted polymer (IIP) based on aniline-formaldehyde was synthesized and then modified with extra aniline as cross-linker in the presence and absence of Sr (II) as the template to produce ion imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde) (IIPAF) and non imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde) (NIPAF). The sorbent was characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and was used for solid ph...

the aim of this study was to investigate the congo red sorption on soil from the region of iasi (ne of romania). the effects of contact time, temperature, sorbent dose and initial dye concentration on soi sorption were investigated. the results show that the amount adsorbed of congo red on soil increase with increasing dye concentration, temperature and contact time. the experimental data were ...
