چکیده
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 confirms the monolayer adsorption capacity of the adsorbent.

Synthesis and characterization of poly (AAm-co-AAc)/NaA nanocomposite and removal of methylene blue with it
The nanocomposites of poly (Acryl amide-co-Acrylic acid) with different contents of NaAzeolite were prepared using ammonium persulfate as an initiator and N, N′-methylenebisacrylamide as the crosslinker. The morphology was characterized by SEM and the structure ofnanocomposite materials was studied with XRD and FT-IR that showed the interaction betweenporous materials and poly (AAm-co-Aac). The...
متن کاملMathematical modelling of an annular photocatalytic reactor for methylene blue degradation under UV light irradiation using rGO-ZnO hybrid
The application of heterogeneous photocatalysis in industrial scale has been hindered by a lack of simple mathematical models that can be easily applied to reactor design and scale-up. This work intends to use a simple mathematical model for predicting methylene blue (MB) degradation in a slurry-annular photocatalytic reactor using zinc oxide (ZnO) hybridized with reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-Z...
