The Use Of Adsorption Technology In The Removal Of Dyes And Heavy Metals From Aqueous Solution By Agricultural Wastes, Ahmed E. Alprol Feb 2024

The Use Of Adsorption Technology In The Removal Of Dyes And Heavy Metals From Aqueous Solution By Agricultural Wastes, Ahmed E. Alprol

Blue Economy

The removal of dyes and heavy metals from wastewater has been a source of concern, both in terms of appearance and health. The removal of dyes and heavy metals from textile effluents on a continuous industrial scale has received a lot of attention in recent year. Various plant-derived wastes are often suggested for the treatment of heavy metals and dyes; these pollutants are sustainable due to their natural abundance, efficacy, and low cost. Adsorption process has emerged as the most widely used and successful method for water and wastewater treatment. The present study's focus, however, is on popularizing sustainable solutions …

Study On The Adsorption Properties Of Nano-Calcium Carbonate Surface Modified Zeolite To Phenolic Acid In Simulated Cane Juice, Liu Fujie, Huang Shihui, Pan Lili

Food and Machinery

Objective: This study aimed to explore the adsorption performance and mechanism of phenolic acids in simulated sugarcane juice by nano-calcium carbonate modified zeolite (CaCO3@ZL). Methods: Using zeolite as the supporting framework, a co-precipitation technique was utilized to create nano-calcium carbonate modified zeolite (CaCO3@ZL), which was then employed to simulate the adsorption of phenolic acids in sugarcane juice. Using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the zeolite's characteristics were examined both before and after alteration. The kinetic model fitting of CaCO3@ZL and static adsorption studies were also conducted. The properties of phenolic acids were …

Adsorption by activated carbon is an effective method of dye removal. However, due to high production and regeneration costs of activated carbon, various studies on low-cost adsorbents have been conducted. Agricultural waste such as rice husk (RH) is seen to be a good adsorbent for dye removal. Moreover, rice husk is readily available. In this study, rice husk-based adsorbents were prepared by chemical and thermal treatments. Standard curve (colour vs absorbance) for Direct Blue 86 (DB 86) was prepared to determine the concentration of dye before and after adsorption. The adsorption potential of the adsorbent for textile dye DB 86 …
