Nanohydroxyapatite and its polycaprolactone nanocomposite for lead sorbent from aqueous solution

Objective(s): Lead is a very strong poison in the environment. Lead toxicity can be affected on the human body and caused disease. Therefore, the design of lead sorbent can be had the great help to the medical field. In this work, the nanohydroxyapatite (n-HA) was used for removal of lead from aqueous solution. Then, polycaprolactone (PCL) nanocomposite was modified with n-HA by simple preparat...

î±-ketoglutaric acid-modified chitosan resin as sorbent for enhancing methylene blue removal from aqueous solutions

in this study, cross linked chitosan resin (ccr) was prepared by cross linking chitosan with glutaraldehyde, and then î±-ketoglutaric acid-modified chitosan resin (kcr) was obtained by modifying ccr with î±-ketoglutaric acid. the sorption behavior of methylene blue (mb) on kcr and ccr from aqueous solution was investigated. the effect of various experimental parameters (e.g. initial ph, sorbent...

Removal of Acid Dyes from Aqueous Solutions Using Orange Peel as a Sorbent Material

An agricultural by-product waste: orange peel was tested for the removal of four acid dyes from aqueous solutions in batch conditions. As results obtained, kinetics of dyes sorption was time of contact, initial dyes concentration and dyes type dependent. The pseudo second-order reaction rate model adequately described the kinetics of dyes sorption with high correlation coefficients. Langmuir mo...

Biosorption of methyl blue onto tartaric acid modified wheat bran from aqueous solution

Tartaric acid modified wheat bran was utilized as adsorbent to remove methyl blue, a basic dye from aqueous solution. Batch experiments were carried out to study the effect of various experimental parameters such as initial solution pH, contact time, initial dye concentration and adsorbent dosage, on dye adsorption. The results showed that the modification of wheat bran by tartaric acid signifi...

Preparation of Nanochitosan as an Effective Sorbent for the Removal of Copper Ions from Aqueous Solutions

The most important pollutants in wastewater are heavy metal ions. In this paper, the effects of various parameters such as pH, contact time, initial concentration, and temperature on the adsorption of Cu (II) by nanochitosan (NCS) was investigated in batch experiment. Nanochitosan was prepared based on ionic gelation and charac­terized by means of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR),...
