The first-ever use of halloysite nanotube (HNT), a relatively low-cost nanomaterial abundantly available with minor toxicity for removing brilliant green dye from aqueous media, is reported. factors affecting adsorption were studied by assessing the capacity, kinetics, and equilibrium thermodynamic properties. All experiments designed at pH level around 7. Redlich-Peterson isotherm model fits b...

Nutraceutical industrial fenugreek seed spent (NIFGS), a relatively low-cost material abundantly available with little toxicity is used in crystal violet (CV) dye remediation from aqueous media and reported the present study. To access adsorption capacity, factors affecting it are kinetics equilibrium thermodynamics. All experiments were designed at approximately pH 7. The isotherm model propos...

The potential of various chemically modified rice husk to remove Methylene Blue (MB) and Reactive Orange 16 (RO16) from aqueous solution was investigated. It was found that ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid modified rice husk (ERH) has the highest adsorption capacity for both MB and RO16. ERH was produced by treating natural rice husk (NRH) with 0.5 g of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) i...

Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) have been assembled in films by using self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of organic molecules. SAMs were prepared by the reaction of organotrialkoxysilanes with surface silanol groups of silicon wafers. SAMs were prepared and their surface was decorated either by amine or thymine groups which have the ability to immobilize iron oxide nanoparticles as monolayers. These...

Since Amaranth (AM) is one of the dye compounds which is harmful to human’s life its removal from industrial waste water would reduce their environmental impact and health effect. Copper nanoparticle (CuNP) is a simple and eco-friendly material which can be used to remove this pollutant. In this paper, copper nanoparticles were synthesized, for removal of AM dye. The experiments were designed b...

A complete characterization of the different physico-chemical properties of nanoparticles (NPs) is necessary for the evaluation of their impact on health and environment. Among these properties, the surface characterization of the nanomaterial is the least developed and in many cases limited to the measurement of surface composition and zetapotential. The biological surface adsorption index app...

Biosorption is a promising alternative method to replace the existing conventional technique for Cr(VI) removal from the industrial effluent. In the present experimental design, the removal of Cr(VI) from the aqueous solution was studied by Aspergillus niger MSR4 under different environmental conditions in the batch systems. The optimum conditions of biosorption were determined by investigating...

A new controlled current multipulse methodology has been developed to modify the screen-printed electrode surface with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Spectroelectrochemistry has provided not only information about the type of nanoparticles (NPs) deposited on the electrode surface, but also about the electrosynthesis process. Small NPs without plasmon band are initially generated. Next, these nuc...

nickel is one of the toxin heavy metals in surface waters. developing new approaches aimed at removing heavy metals from aqueous solutions that are simultaneously economical and environmentally friendly is of great importance. the purpose of this study will be using nano-lignocellulose adsorbent as a natural material to remove nickel heavy metal. in this study, several important environmental p...

The optimization of process conditions for the degradation of Acid Blue 193 by UV/peroxydisulfate was investigated using response surface methodology (RSM). The effects of four parameters namely initial K2S2O8 concentration, UV irradiation, temperature, and initial dye concentration on two process responses, color removal and the rate constants of the first-order kinetic equations, were investi...
