In this study, the response surface methodology (RSM) and artificial neural network (ANN) were employed to study the adsorption process of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) by using modified hydrogel, i.e., activated carbon poly(dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (AC/PDMAEMA hydrogel). The effect of pH, the initial concentration of 2,4-D and the activated carbon content on the removal of 2,4-D and adsorption capacity were investigated through the face-centered composite design (FCCD), optimal design and two-level factorial design. The response surface plot suggested that higher removal of 2,4-D and adsorption capacity could be achieved at the higher initial concentration of 2,4-D and lower pH and activated carbon …

Wastewater is produced by numerous dyes producing and dye consuming industries in their process activities especially the textile industry. These effluents become toxic and harmful to the living things and the environment if not properly treated before being discharged to the environment. In recent decades dye wastewater has been becomes a growing water pollution problem because it is one of the most difficult to treat. To put an end to this problem, viable, efficient, and sustainable method of treatment of dye wastewater and color removal needs to be established. Several research papers have been done over the years on various …
