Abstract:

Mesoporous carbon (CMK-3) modified with Fe3O4 nanoparticles has been successfully synthesized and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption-desorption, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).The results depict that the synthesized Fe-CMK-3 preserved the ordered mesoporous structure of CMK-3, and magnetic species were dispersed inside channels of CMK-3 as nanoparticles with the diameter of around 15 nm. When used as adsorbents, Fe-CMK-3 and CMK-3 exhibit excellent performance for removing Malachite Green dye from aqueous solutions. Effects of contact time, pH, initial dye and salt concentrations on dye removal efficiency were investigated. Due to the facility of the separation process with an external magnetic field, Fe- CMK-3 is suggested as a novel adsorbent for the removal of MG dye from aqueous solutions.

Modified Nanoporous Carbon Material for Anionic Dye Removal from Aqueous Solution

In this study, the adsorption behavior of anionic dyes from aqueous solution onto mesoporous carbon material (CMK-1) and modified with polymer (PANI/CMK-1) has been investigated as a function of parameters such as adsorbent dose (0.08-0.8 g/L), solution pH 3–10, contact time and initial concentration (10-100 mg/L). The influence of these parameters on the adsorption capacity has been studied us...
