Optimization Of Remazol Brilliant Blue R Adsorption Onto Xanthium Italicum Using The Response Surface Method, Mohammed Saleh, Mutlu Yalvaç, Hüdaverdi Arslan
Karbala International Journal of Modern Science
In this study, the adsorption capacity of toxic and recalcitrant organic pollutant(s) Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) onto the invader Xanthium İtalicum (XI) plant was assessed using the Response Surface Method (RSM). The adsorp-tion behavior of RBBR was determined by the spectrophotometric method, FTIR and SEM analysis were used to characterize XI, Brunauer, the Emmett and Teller (BET) analysis was accomplished to find the surface area of the ad-sorbent. The experiment procedures were planned by the Central Composite Design (CCD) whereby a model was built to examine the effects of the different parameters and the possible interaction between them. The …

In wastewater treatment, scientific and practical models utilizing numerical computational techniques such as artificial neural networks (ANNs) can significantly help to improve the process as a whole through adsorption systems. In the modeling of the adsorption efficiency for heavy metals from wastewater, some kinetic models have been used such as pseudo first-order and second-order. The present work develops an ANN model to forecast the adsorption efficiency of heavy metals such as zinc, nickel, and copper by extracting experimental data from three case studies. To do this, we apply trial-and-error to find the most ideal ANN settings, the efficiency of which …

Carbon nanotubes have emerged as highly promising theranostic agents due to their unique structural/physical features, high surface area, and high drug-loading capacity. The high cytotoxicity of carbon nanotubes can be eliminated by noncovalent coating using hydrophilic polymers. We investigated the adsorption of long pyrene functionalized polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains, PEG$_{2000}$ and PEG$_{5000}$, on a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) from a crowded solution. Full-atom molecular dynamics simulations in explicit water were used to mimic the experimental conditions of noncovalent PEGylation with a stoichiometry of one SWNT to ten pyrene-PEG. Although the diffusional behavior of the pyrene molecules still attached to the …
