Colour Removal from Effluents Using Micromaterials
Abstract: In this study, the ability of Micromaterials to adsorb color from an aqueous solution was investigated by using flocculants and activated carbon prepared from Rice Bran, an agricultural by-product, and batch mode adsorption experiments were conducted. The influence of various factors such as initial concentration (20, 40, 60, 80 mg/L), contact time, pH (4.0-9.0), and dosage on the adsorption capacity was investigated and optimal experimental conditions were ascertained. Adsorption data …

A Parametric Study of Methylene Blue Adsorption Using Low-cost Adsorbent
Abstract: This research focused on the adsorptive capacity of activated carbonaceous substance made from the peel of Spanish cherries to remove methylene blue dye from wastewater. Through batch adsorption tests, the impact of several variables on the percentage of dye removal was examined. These variables included adsorbent preparation temperature, adsorbent dosages, initial concentration of dye solution, process time, pH of dye solution, and operation temperature. It was found that using 1 …

Optimizing the removal of Chromium from aqueous solution by adsorption using sugarcane bagasse
Abstract: In Ethiopian tannery and textile industries, chromium concentration before treatment ranges from 1000 ppm to 5000 ppm. From this concentration about 95 % of chromium exists in the form of Cr (III), which was toxic when its concentration exceeded 5 ppm and oxidized in to Cr (VI). This chromium was disposed to environment with effluent in the form of chromium III and chromium VI was highly toxic to humans, animals …

Adsorption of Congo Red Dye by Using Poly(2-Chloroaniline-co-2-Methoxyaniline)
Abstract: ABSTRACTThe removal of this dye from the industry waste water is environmentally significant. In the present work the adsorbent, poly(2-chloroaniline-co-2-methoxyaniline) was employed to remove congo red dye from water. Batch experiments were conducted to study the effects of parameters such as concentration, contact time, amount of the adsorbent dose and pH. The result showed that the dye was removed when pH = 7.5-8 and contact time is 60 minutes and …

Arsenic Removal by Using Low Cost Non-conventional (NLP, PLP, ALP) Adsorbents
Abstract: AbstractIn present study, Azadirachta indica (neem leaves), Ficus religiosa (peepal leaves), Emblica officinalis (amla leaves) used as adsorbent. Batch experiments were conducted to study the adsorption behaviour. The material was characterized by FTIR, XRD, TGA-DTA, and SEM-EDS. The extent of arsenic removal capacity was tested by the material by varying the solution parameters like adsorbent dose, adsorbate concentration and pH of the solution, contact time and temperature. The amount of …
