Red Reactive 2 Dye Removal from Aqueous Solutions by Pumice as a Low-Cost and Available Adsorbent

Background & Aims of the Study: Azo dyes are used in industrial processes such as textile industry to produce large quantities of colored effluents that contain organic and non-organic materials. So, effective and efficient treatment of them is important for the environmental protection. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of powder and granular pumice for the ...

Removal of Reactive Red 120 from Aqueous Solutions Using Albizia lebbeck Fruit (Pod) Partical as a Low Cost Adsorbent

Synthetic dyes are using extensively in various industries such as textile, leather tanning, plastic, pulp and paper. Since this dyes are mainly toxic and even carcinogenic, discharging dye containing wastewater into the environment generates serious environmental and health consequences. Therefore, in this research investigated and evaluated the removal effect of Reactive Red 120 (RR 120) from...

Removal of Basic Blue 159 from Aqueous Solution Using Banana Peel as a Low-Cost Adsorbent

In this paper, the adsorption of Basic Blue159 (BB159) onto banana peel as a low-cost material was studied. At first, the banana peel was sieved. Later, banana peel particles were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDXS) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) techniques. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out as a fu...

Adsorptive Removal of Dye from Industrial Effluents Using Natural Iraqi Palygorskite Clay as Low-cost Adsorbent

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...

Sawdust as a natural and low cost adsorbent for the removal of brilliant cresyl blue dye from water samples

Sawdust which is the main waste from wood industry has been used as a raw material forremoval of Brilliant Cresyl Blue toxic dye. The effects of various parameters such as pH,electrolyte concentration, adsorbent dose, contact time and agitation rate were studied for theremoval of the dye in a concentration of 50 mg L-1. The optimum condition for the studiedparameters was applied for various con...
