Graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticle is a high potential effective absorbent. Tetracycline (TC) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic produced, indicated for use against many bacterial infections. In the present research, a systematic study of the adsorption and release process of tetracycline on GO was performed by varying pH, sorption time and temperature. The results of our studies showed that tetracyc...

The present study describes the development of a new bioadsorbent from lignocellulosic wastes of agricultural origin. The biosorption capacity of an agricultural solid waste, pine bark (Pinus densiflora Sieb.), to remove phenolic compounds (phenol, 2-chlorophenol (2-CPh), and 4chlorophenol (4-CPh)) from aqueous solutions under batch equilibrium conditions was investigated. The morphological cha...

The studies of the kinetics and isotherms adsorption of the Reactive Black 5 (RB5) onto bentonite clay were explored in a batch study in a laboratory. The maximum RB5 adsorption conditions of bentonite clay were optimized such as shaking speed (100 rpm), temperature (323 K), pH (10), contact time (40 min), initial dye concentration (170 mg·L−1), and particle size (177 μm). The adsorbent surface...

Sorbent got from leaves and barks of Annona squamosa has been investigated for its sorption capacity towards Methyl Red (MR) utilizing artificially arranged recreated squander waters. Different components influencing adsorption, viz., initial color concentration, contact time, adsorbent dosage, along with the impact temperature were assessed. The equilibrium adsorption was demonstrated by Freun...

The current study focused on utilizing cobalt oxide to eliminate hazardous Eriochrome Black T (EBT) dye. impact of pH (2, 4, 7, 8, and 10) temperature (45, 50, 55 °C) was examined for EBT removal. results show that the maximum sorption occurred at = 2 removal percentage increased with increasing temperature. Five non-linear regression methods were used predict best isotherm kinetic models. A co...

Ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that effective in vitro against Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. Since the ciprofloxacin, along with other pharmaceuticals, can influence environment, goal of this study was to examine possibility ciprofloxacin removal from water using biosorbents, an unconventional cheaper subclass adsorbents. For purpose, effect ionic strength, pH, ...

This research work reports on the potential of bagasse, a solid waste from sugar factories, to produce activated-carbon (AC) as an adsorbent. The activation was conducted under 500, 600, and 700 °C using steam agent AC500, AC600, AC700, respectively. prepared-materials were characterized understand their elemental content, surface morphology, thermal properties, functional groups identification...

Adsorption is a widely used technique for the treatment of wastewater containing dyes, which are pollutants that can have serious impacts on aquatic ecosystems. In this work, activated carbon (AC) was prepared from cashew nut shell (CNS) and to adsorb methylene blue (MB) solution. The CNS AC characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorpt...

Two easily accessible local materials, kaolin, and sediments from the reservoir of a dam, were evaluated to compare their efficiencies as adsorbents for As. The kaolin sample was composed mainly by kaolinite quartz, while contained illite, montmorrillonite quartz. Also, iron, calcium magnesium minerals present minor components. adsorption experiments performed using batch equilibrium techniques...
