abstract

cadmium oxide rhombus-shaped nanostructure was synthesized using hydrothermal process followed by heating treatment. clearly, x-ray diffraction pattern demonstrated the formation of cdo crystalline phase. scanning electron microscopy (sem) showed that the obtained rhombus-like structure is composed of nanoparticles with the average size of 29 nm. in addition, we evaluated adsorption of organic dye i.e. congo red from water using the prepared cdo rhombus like microstructure. uv-visible absorption spectroscopy was used to record the adsorption behavior. it was found that the removal process is performed via electrostatic absorption mechanism. the maximum adsorption capacity of cdo rhombus structures (0.01 g) for congo red (cr) in the concentration range (5-50 mg l-1) studied, as calculated from the langmuir isotherm model at 25 ˚c and neutral ph, was found to be 41.20 mg g−1.

Removal of Congo Red from Aqueous Solution by Anion Exchange Membrane (EBTAC): Adsorption Kinetics and Themodynamics

The adsorption behavior of anionic dye congo red (CR) from aqueous solutions using an anion exchange membrane (EBTAC) has been investigated at room temperature. The effect of several factors including contact time, membrane dosage, ionic strength and temperature were studied. Kinetic models, namely pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order, liquid film diffusion and Elovich models as well as B...

A Kinetic Study on Adsorption of Congo Red from Aqueous Solution by ZnO-ZnFe2O4-polypyrrole Magnetic Nanocomposite

In this work, magnetically separable ZnO-ZnFe2O4-PPy nanocomposite as an efficient adsorbent was synthesized by two steps. At first, zinc oxide (ZnO) and ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles were synthesized using simple and facile precipitation method. Then, ZnO-ZnFe2O4 mixed oxide was modified by polypyrrole (PPy). The adsorbent was character...
