BACKGROUND Recently, researchers have tried to design synthetic materials by replicating natural materials as an adsorbent for removing various types of environmental pollutants, which have reached to the risky levels in nature for many countries in the world. In this research, the potential of onion membrane obtained from intermediate of onion shells for adsorption of methylene blue (MB) as a ...

Adsorption of crystal violet (CV) in aqueous solution on commercial activated carbon (CAC) and activated carbon obtained from Syzygium cumini seed (SCSC) have been studied comparatively. The effect of various experimental parameters has been investigated using a batch adsorption technique to obtain information on treating effluents from the dye industry. The extent of dye removal increased with...

Processing dye-sensitized solar cells gains more and more importance as interest in industrial applications grows daily. For large-scale processing and optimizing manufacturing in terms of environmental acceptability as well as time and material saving, a detailed knowledge of certain process steps is crucial. In this paper we concentrate on the sensitizing step of production, i.e., the anchori...

introduction: colored compounds which often are toxic and carcinogen is one of the environmental pollutants. these pollutants should be removed prior than discharge to the environment. the aim of this study was the evaluation of maize tassel powder efficiency for the removal of reactive red 198 dye from synthetic textile wastewater. materials & methods: this experimental study was performed in ...

conclusions the study results showed that by increasing the initial dye concentration and contact time, the adsorption capacity increased, as well. moreover, the thermodynamic parameters (δh °, δg °, and δs °) revealed the endothermic sorption of rr-198 onto mwcnts. results the rr-198 absorption rates were 33.26 and 222.88 mg/g, respectively for 20, and 200 mg/l dye concentration, at ph of 3, 6...

Dye removal from industrial wastewater is an important environmental concern. So far, various physical and chemical treatment methods have been reviewed for the removal of dyes such as biological degradation, ion exchange, chemical precipitation, reverse osmosis, coagulation, flocculation, etc. However, these treatment processes have their limitations such as high cost, generation of toxic slud...

The removal of Methylene Blue dye from aqueous solution using a biowaste, dried Blue Green Algae was investigated in terms of variation of initial concentration of the dye solution, adsorbent dosage and pH. The optimum pH for the removal of dye by adsorption was found to be pH 7. The data obtained in this study fitted with Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The experimental data conf...

In this paper, dye removal ability of the surface modified nanoparticle SMN copper ferrite from single and quaternary systems was investigated. Acid Blue 92 AB92, Direct Green 6 DG6, Direct Red 23 DR23 and Direct Red 80 DR80 were used as model compounds. The effect of surfactant concentration, adsorbent dosage, dye concentration and pH on dye removal was evaluated. The adsorption isotherm and k...

in this study, removal of methylene blue (mb) and maxilon blue sl 200% (mb sl) dyes from aqueous solutions by using raw clay (rc) of nevsehir (turkey) vicinity and ultrasonic-acid modified clay (mc) was investigated. adsorption was carried out with 500 mg/l mb and 50 mg/l for mb sl in terms of different adsorbent dosages, contact time, solution ph, temperature and stirring speed. the fitting of...
