This study aimed to investigation of Cd(II) ion removal from wastewater using chitosan-vanillin as sorbent I and chitosan-ortho-vanillin as sorbent II under various experimental conditions. The influence of pH, initial Cd(II) ion concentrations and isotherm studies, temperature and thermodynamic studies, adsorbent mass, adsorption time and kinetic studies on the sorption process have been studied using different experiments. The residual ion quantity is estimated through atomic absorption spectrometry. The maximum Cd(II) ion removal is obtained at pH 6 with highest uptake of ions after agitation for 2 hours. Langmuir isotherm model represented the most suitable for the experimental data and the maximum adsorbing capacity was 20.704 mg g-1 and 51.020 mg g-1 for sorbents I and II, respectively. Results of this study suggest that chemisorption is a step of rate-determining and the thermodynamic studies revealed that the nature of uptake sorption process is endothermic and spontaneous.

<p>Removal of Co(II) ions from aqueous solutions using chitosan-vanillin (polymer I) and chitosan-ortho-vanillin (polymer II) adsorbents has been investigated under different experimental conditions. The effect of pH, contact time, adsorbent mass, temperature, and initial concentration of studied ion on the sorption process has been studied using batch experiments. The quantity of residual ion has been estimated via atomic absorption spectrometry. The highest removal of Co(II) ions has been achieved at pH 4 with a maximum removal of 93.2% of ions after two hours of agitation. Langmuir isotherm model represents the best fit for the experimental data; whereas the highest chelation capacity was 5.899 mg g-1 and 7.651 mg g-1 for polymers I and II, respectively. Results from this study imply that chemisorption is the rate-determining step and thermodynamic parameters indicate that the uptake process is spontaneous and endothermic in nature.</p>

In this work, gamma–MnO2 nanostructure was used as a sorbent to remove Zn (II) ion from aqueous solution. The influence of pH, sorption time and Zn (II) ion initial concentration were examined. The results showed that equilibrium adsorption was obtained after 60 minutes with 240 rpm of shaking speed at pH = 4.0. The experimental data were analyzed using five non-linear isotherm models: Langmuir, Freundlich, Sips, Tempkin and Dubinin – Radushkevich. The adsorption capacity (qm) from the Langmuir isotherm model for Zn (II) is founded as 55.23 mg/g. The heat of sorption process and the mean free energy were estimated from Temkin and Dubinin – Redushkevich isotherm models to be less than 8 kj/mol which vividly proved that the adsorption experiment followed a physical process. Kinetic studies have shown that although the adsorption data partially followed pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order equation for different time, it was well expressed by pseudo-second-order model.

The sorption of eosin by peanut husk, which was chemically modified by formaldehyde in acidic medium was studied with variation in the parameters of contact time, pH, initial eosin concentration and temperature. They were used for equilibrium sorption uptake studies with eosin. The results indicate that sorption equilibrium could be well described by the Freundlich isotherm equation. The sorption followed the pseudo-second order model. The mass transfer model as intraparticle diffusion was applied to the experimental data to examine the mechanisms of the rate controlling step. It was found that the intraparticle diffusion is becoming the significant controlling step under the experimental conditions. The thermodynamic constants of the sorption process were also evaluated, which suggest an endothermic physical sorption process which runs spontaneously.

Water quality is very important to food processing industry. Water hardness caused by calcium ions in water can affect the properties of food including aroma, texture, flavor and appearance. Chitosan has amino functional groups that can remove metal ions from aqueous solution. However, chitosan can give more effective removal of calcium ions if it is modified with functionalized substance such as thiamine hydrochloride. therefore, the objectives of this study were to synthesize the modified chitosan with thiamine hydrochloride (MCTH) and to determine its efficiency for removal of calcium ion in solution. Chitosan was prepared from crab shells and modified with thiamine hydrochloride at 30 °C. The morphology of both crab-shell chitosan (CSC) and MCTH was characterized by SEM, FTIR and NMR techniques. Batch adsorption experiments were conducted as a function of pH, contacted time and initial concentration of calcium (II) ions. The desorption of calcium(II) ion from both adsorbents was also investigated. The concentration of calcium in solution was measured by FAAS technique. The results indicated that the optimum pH for adsorption was 6.0 for both CSC and MCTH. The adsorption capacity for MCTH (48.31 mg g-1) was greater than that of CSC (1.52 mg g-1). The isotherm showed that the adsorption process of calcium (II) ions onto MCTH was fitted to Langmuir isotherm model. Calcium desorption from MCTH was lower than that of CSC.

Sorption of Acid Red 1 (AR1) from aqueous solutions utilizing low-cost sorbent material; (chitosan-iso-vanillin) is studied under batch conditions. The remaining concentrations of the azo dye are measured at λmax = 546 nm by UV spectrophotometric method. Langmuir data reveal that the maximum removal capacity was 555.556 mg/g at pH 3. Freundlich isotherm represents the best fitting model on the removal of AR1 using chemically modified chitosan verifying the sorption takes place on heterogeneous surfaces with multilayer adsorption. Kinetic studies of the sorption process revealed that intraparticle diffusion is not only the rate-determining step but also a chemical reaction takes place as well. The results indicate that high sorption rapidness with almost 90% achieved within 90 min. Thermodynamic investigations suggest that the process favours an exothermic nature. The polymer utilized in the present study is being considered as a feasible sorbent material for the removal of AR1 from waste effluent.

Acetylated sawdust (AS) has been studied as sorbent for crude oil spill clean-up operations in the aqueous environment. Sorption kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out under various experimental conditions. The experimental data were particularly tested using the Langmuir isotherm model and the Freundlich isotherm model. The results showed that the acetylation of sawdust enhanced the equilibrium sorption capacity of biomass towards the crude oil. Kinetic studies have shown that the data better fitted the Langmuir moldel than the Freundlich model. The maximum adsorption capacity of AS was 7.9 g/g of crude oil. These values indicated that the acetylated sawdust is a suitable sorbent with potential for further development for oil spill treatment.

A new chelating resin, pyrocatechol violet (PV) immobilised on Amberlite XAD-4 polymeric matrix, was prepared. The resulting chelating resin has been characterised by elemental analysis, infrared (IR) spectra and textural analysis (BET). The resin was used for the preconcentration of Zn (II) prior to its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). The optimization of experimental conditions during the quantitative extraction of Zn (II) by the resin phase was performed using factorial design including pH, amount of resin, and contact time. The phase exchange kinetic studies performed of Zn (II) revealed that equal 40 min was sufficient for reaching equilibrium metal ion sorption. Sorption is quantitative in the pH range of 5 – 5.5 (recovery 98 – 99%).

AbstractA rapid dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction (DLLME) methodology based on the application of 1-hexylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate [C6py][PF6] ionic liquid (IL) as an extractant solvent was applied for the pre-concentration of trace levels of cobalt prior to determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). 1-Phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-5-pyrazolone (PMBP) was employed as a chelator forming a Co-PMBP complex to extract cobalt ions from aqueous solution into the fine droplets of [C6py][PF6]. Some effective factors that influence the micro-extraction efficiency include the pH, the PMBP concentration, the amount of ionic liquid, the ionic strength, the temperature and the centrifugation time which were investigated and optimized. In the optimum experimental conditions, the limit of detection (3s) and the enrichment factor were 0.70 µg L−1 and 60, respectively. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for six replicate determinations of 50 µg L−1 Co was 2.36%. The calibration graph using the pre-concentration system was linear at levels 2–166 µg L−1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.9982. The applicability of the proposed method was evaluated by the determination of trace amounts of cobalt in several water samples.
