The present study describes the adsorption of textile dye on rice hull. The adsorption parameters were obtained from Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms utilizing linear regression plots to fit the data. The results showed that Langmuir equation was more suitable than the Freundlich one to predict the experimental adsorption isotherms, indicating that the adsorption of dye molecules is localized ...

The triphenylmethane dye malachite green (MG), commonly used as fungicide, was adsorbed onto wheat bran (WB) by using a batch technique. The effects of contact time, dye concentration and pH were investigated. The equilibrium was attained after 40 min of contact time irrespective of MG concentration. The pH of MG aqueous solution greatly influenced the adsorption capacity and intensity, it was ...

The objective of this study was to investigate the biosorption of an azo dye (Methylene blue) by a wetland phytomass (Typha angustata) under post-phytoremediation scenario. Thus, the phytomass was used without any chemical modification. The batch adsorption experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of contact time and temperatures (25–45 C) on the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) from...

The magnetic NiFe2O4 nanoparticles have been synthesized and used as adsorbents for removal of an azo dye, Eriochrome black-T (EBT) from aqueous solution. The NiFe2O4 nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR). The adsorption studies were carried out under v...

Palygorskite clay has been investigated as low cost and ecofriendly adsorbent for the removal Basic Red 2(BR-2) from aqueous solution. Batch adsorption studies are carried out by observing effect of amount of adsorbent dose, contact time, pH, initial concentration of ( BR-2) and particle size of adsorbent on the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent were studied. Adsorption data fits the Langmui...

background; dyes can cause many problems in environment. therefore, removal of these contaminants before discharging wastewater to environment can reduce the environmental hazards. adsorption is one of the usual processes for decolorizing from wastewater. nanotubes are new adsorbents that can adsorb different compounds. this work aimed to investigate acid violet 17 dye removal by adsorption usi...

Pollution of water resources by various pollutants is nowadays a global environmental issue. Among the different type of water pollutants, dye represents a major polluting group. In this study, Azolla filiculides roots have been used for adsorption of Malachite Green (MG), a cationic dyed from aqueous solution. In this study, effects of operating parameters such as initial concentration of dye ...

Expanded graphite nanosheets (EG-nanosheets) were used for adsorption of Malachite Green (MG) from aqueous solution. The influences of dye concentrations, absorbent dosage, pH values and the temperatures on the adsorption were investigated as well. The dye adsorption experiments were carried out by utilizing batch procedure. EG-nanosheets were initially characterized by scanning electron micros...

The influence of osmotic pressure and solute adsorption on permeate flux during nanofiltration (NF) of a wool textile dye solution was investigated. Solutions of C.I. Acid Orange 7 with concentrations ranging from 2 to 2000 mg/l were subjected to nanofiltration with a NF 45 membrane. An increase of flux decline with dye concentration was observed. The resistance-in-series model gives evidence t...
