The purpose of this study was to investigate the adsorption properties of locally available sepiolite and clinoptilolite materials as adsorbents for the removal of crystal violet and congo red dye ions from aqueous solution. Previous experiments have revealed that two variables, concentration and adsorbent dosage, have a significant effect on removal efficiency. In order to find the set of operating conditions for these variables that result in the best removal efficiency, central composite design of experiments was utilized. The results showed that sepiolite is a suitable material with 99% removal efficiency for the adsorption of both crystal violet and congo red from aqueous solution. However, in spite of clinoptilolite is also a suitable adsorbent for crystal violet, removal efficiency of congo red is rather low.

In this paper, nano-Fe3O4 as sorbent was used to remove Congo red dye from aqueous solution, in order to investigate its adsorption properties. Fe3O4 nano-particles were synthesized by hydrothermal method, and were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray Powder Diffraction (XRD) to examine their size, morphology and property. The adsorption and removal of Congo red dye from aqueous solution on nano-Fe3O4 was studied in batch equilibrium experiments. These results showed an excellent adsorption capability for Congo red with a maximum adsorption capacity of 1395mg•g-1 at 20°C and pH2.0. It indicates that Fe3O4 nano-particles can be effectively used to remove color from wastewater containing dyes.

The aim of this study is to use the dry fibers of date palm as low-cost biosorbent for the removal of Cd(II), and Ni(II) ions from aqueous solution by fluidized bed column. The effects of many operating conditions such as superficial velocity, static bed height, and initial concentration on the removal efficiency of metal ions were investigated. FTIR analyses clarified that hydroxyl, amine and carboxyl groups could be very effective for bio-sorption of these heavy metal ions. SEM images showed that dry fibers of date palm have a high porosity and that metal ions can be trapped and sorbed into pores. The results show that a bed height of 6 cm, velocity of 1.1Umf and initial concentration for each heavy metal ions of 50 mg/L are most feasible and give high removal efficiency. The fluidized bed reactor was modeled using ideal plug flow and this model was solved numerically by utilizing the MATLAB software for fitting the measured breakthrough results. The breakthrough curves for metal ions gave the order of bio-sorption capacity as follow: Cd(II)]Ni(II).

Water is the most crucial thing to mankind and so its contamination by various agencies is posing a threat to the natural balance. So, in the present work, the efficiency of various adsorbents derived from plant waste, to remove different dyes from aqueous solution was evaluated. Parameters for study were contact time, concentration and pH. Various combinations of plant ashes were used for the study. It was found that adsorbent prepared from the combination of orange peels, pomegranate and banana peels ashes, exhibited good adsorption capacity for methylene blue, congo red and crystal violet. All these dyes were completely removed from the aqueous solution while methyl orange was not removed. Congo red was removed completely within 40 min of contact with the adsorbent while methyl orange took 3 hrs to be removed to the extent of 48% only. The adsorption coefficient of congo red was found to be 2.33 while value for methylene blue and crystal violet was 1 and 1.66 respectively. The characterization of adsorbent was done by Scanning Electron Microscopy and IR spectroscopy. SEM image revealed the surface of adsorbent to be made of differential pores. From the results it became evident that the low-cost adsorbent could be used as a replacement for costly traditional methods of removing colorants from water.

In the present study, a new compound was used for decontaminating water polluted by Congo Red dye. Phosphono-aminoacid-Cd(II) pendant groups grafted on a polymeric support was prepared using impregnation of a polymer support functionalized with phosphono-aminoacid groups with an aqueous solution of Cd(NO3)2x4H2O. The catalyst was characterized by Fourier transform infrared ray, scanning electron microscope, termogravimetric analysis UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results suggest that the studied material could efficiently be used as photocatalyst in the degradation process of waters containing organic dyes under UV-Vis light irradiation.
