In this work, ginger straw waste-derived porous carbons, with high adsorption capacity, high adsorption rate, and good reusability for removing the toxic dye of methylene blue from wastewater, were prepared by a facile method under oxygen-limiting conditions. This study opens a new approach for the utilization of ginger straw waste, and the porous materials can be employed as great potential adsorbents for treating dye wastewater.

To fully utilize the residual of microwave-heated pyrolysis, the char was activated by vapor and used as adsorbent. Langmuir and Freundlich model were applied to adsorption for methylene blue, and the Freundlich gave a better fitting results. The high amount of adsorbent and temperature were favorable to adsorption, and the adsorbent showed high adsorption capacity in the pH range of 48. These results indicate the activated char have a greatly potential in treatment of dye wastewater.

Removal of dyes through adsorption from wastewater has gained substantial interest in recent years, especially in development of hydrogel based adsorbents, owing to their easy use and economical nature. The aim of the present study was to design a super-adsorbent hydrogel based on sodium styrenesulfonate (NaSS) monomer for removal of dyes like methylene blue (MB). NaSS displays both an aromatic ring and strongly ionic group in its monomer structure that can enhance adsorption capacity. Poly(sodium styrenesulfonate-co-dimethylacrylamide) hydrogels were prepared by solution free radical polymerization using gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) as crosslinker, creating a highly porous, three-dimensionally crosslinked polymer network contributing to higher swelling ratios of up to 27,500%. These super-adsorbent hydrogels exhibited high adsorption capacity of 1270 mg/g for MB adsorption with above 98% removal efficiency. This is the first report for such a high adsorption capacity for dye absorbance for NaSS-based hydrogels. Additionally, the adsorption kinetics using a pseudo-first-order and the Freundlich adsorption isotherm models for multilayer, heterogeneous adsorption processes has been reported. The adsorbents’ reusability was confirmed through 4 repeated cycles of desorption-adsorption. The results discussed herein illustrate that NaSS based chemistries can be used as an efficient option for removal of organic dyes from contaminated wastewater.

A biocompatible Dex-MA/PAA hydrogel was prepared through copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate substituted dextran (Dex-MA) with acrylic acid (AA), which was applied as the adsorbent to remove cationic dyes from aqueous solutions.
