Methylene Blue (MB) adsorption from aqueous phase was investigated using three types of adsorbents. Granular solid adsorbents were prepared from waste wood fly ash and clay. Experiments were conducted in a batch system for determining sorption equilibria. For continuous process, the adsorbents were packed in a column to remove MB from the synthetic wastewater. The fabricated adsorbents and also...

ginger waste material (gwm) has been utilized as adsorbent for removal of hazardouspatent blue vf (pbvf) dye from aqueous solution. batch adsorption experiments wereperformed as a function of ph, contact time, dye concentration, adsorbent dose and temperature.the optimum ph required for the maximum adsorption was found to be 2. the experimentalequilibrium adsorption data were tested using langm...

In the present study, Juglans regia shells were used to prepare activated carbon by acid treatment method. J. regia shell-based activated carbon was used for the adsorption of two synthetic dyes namely, a basic dye malachite green and an acid dye amido black 10B. The prepared adsorbent was crushed and sieved to three different mesh sizes 100, 600 and 1,000 lm. The adsorbent was characterized by...

Biosorption of cadmium ions from simulated wastewater using rice husk was studied with initial concentration 25 mg/l. Equilibrium isotherm Langmuir, Freundlich, BET and Timken models. The results show that the Freundlich is best fit model to describe this process high determination coefficient equals 0.983. There a good compliance between experimental theoretical results. Highest removal effici...

In this study, waste olive cake (OC) was utilized as the raw material for the production of biosorbents by chemical treatment and its adsorption capacity for zinc ion was evaluated. Tests were conducted with the total biomass (T) and with the fraction > 2.00 mm (P), in order to determinate the influence of this fractionation step on subsequent treatments. Two chemical agents were used: sulfuric...

Acid and thermal treated sepiolite was organophilized by cationic exchange with several alkylammonium cations (octylammonium, hexadecylammonium, tetradecyltrimethylammonium, hexadecyltrimethylammonium). The adsorption capacity of BTEX from aqueous solutions evaluated through the isotherms performed in batch. results were analysed using three isotherm models: Freundlich, Langmuir Dubinin-Radushk...

The present study describes the adsorption of textile dye on rice hull. The adsorption parameters were obtained from Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms utilizing linear regression plots to fit the data. The results showed that Langmuir equation was more suitable than the Freundlich one to predict the experimental adsorption isotherms, indicating that the adsorption of dye molecules is localized ...

Activated carbon prepared from Cucumis Melo Peel was used as adsorbent for the removal of chromium ion from aqueous solution. Adsorption experiments were performed by varying initial metal ion concentration, temperature, and pH. Freundlich and Langmuir isotherms were used to analyze the equilibrium data obtained at different adsorption conditions. Adsorption results obtained, shows that the Cr ...

The potential to remove chromium(VI) from aqueous solutions through biosorption using coffee husk was investigated. The effects of pH, contact time, initial concentration and adsorbent dosage on the adsorption of Cr(VI) were studied. The data obeyed Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherms. The Langmuir adsorption capacity was found to be 44.95 mg/g. The Freundlich constants Kf and n were 1...
