There is increasing concern to determine an alternative coagulant for treating industrial effluent with minimal environmental impact and operational cost. In this study, iron (II) sulphate heptahydrate (FeSO4·7H2O) waste, an industrial byproduct from a titanium oxide processing industry, was used as a coagulant for the removal of ammonia (NH3), chemical oxygen demand (COD), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and suspended solid (SS) from secondary rubber processing effluent (SRPE). The highest percentage removal of BOD, COD, SS, and NH3 achieved was approximately 97%, 99%, 98%, and 95%, respectively, at pH 5.0, coagulant dose of 1 g/L, coagulation time of 60 min, sedimentation time of 60 min, and at an elevated temperature of 70 °C. The best described adsorption isotherm model was found to be the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) model, indicated that the FeSO4·7H2O adsorption took placed on the surface of iron hydroxide precipitates with multilayer formation and random distribution. The kinetics analysis showed that the adsorption mechanism was well fitted with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The findings of the present study show that the FeSO4·7H2O waste has the potential to be used as a coagulant for the treatment of industrial effluents, including the secondary rubber processing effluent.

The following study explains that the adsorption efficiency of activated carbon used by Groundnut foliage and groundnut husk for the deportation of COD (Chemical Oxygen demand) from groundwater collected from in and around industrial areas of Vellore district was investigated with different activating conditions (Activating agent- KOH, ZnCl2 and H3PO4; Impregnation ratio-1:1,1:2,1:2; and activation temeperture-500-700°C. The activated carbon prepared based on optimized condition has well-developed pore structure and functional groups which is confirmed from SEM image and FTIR analysis respectively. The adsorption equilibrium was reached in 240 min with the isotherm data fitted well in both the model such as Langmuir model and Freundlich’s model indicating chemisorption’s adsorption for the activated carbon. Moreover, the adsorption process was exothermic accompanied by a decrease in irregularity. Furthermore, the adsorption kinetic study indicated that the adsorption process of the prepared sample follows the pseudo-second-order kinetic model compare to the pseudo-first -order kinetic model

Environmental applications of composites have attracted the interests of researchers due to their excellent adsorption efficiency for pollutants. Native, HCl pre-treated clay and MnFe2O4/clay composite were investigated as an adsorbent for removal of methyl green from aqueous solution. The adsorption behaviors of dye onto native, HCl pre-treated and composite clays were studied as a function of contact time, adsorbent dose, pH, initial dye concentration and temperature. Maximum dye adsorption of 44 mg/g was achieved at pH of 8, contact time 40 min, adsorbent dose 0.20 g/L and initial dye concentration of 125 mg/L using clay composite. The Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic model best explained the methyl green dye adsorption onto clay adsorbents. Thermodynamic parameters revealed the endothermic and spontaneous adsorption nature of dye. From results, it is concluded that clay has potential for adsorbing methyl green and can be used for the removal of dyes from industrial effluents.

This study prepares the in situ formed iron hydroxide (In situ FeOxHy) by the interactions between Fe3+ and OH- at different molar ratios of 1:0,1:1,1:2,and 1:3, and investigates the performance and mechanism involved in the removal of phosphate. The removal efficiency increases with elevated doses of FeOxHy and the maximum removal is observed to be in neutral pH ranges. The elevated ratios of OH- to Fe3+ inhibit the removal of phosphate whereas at low alkalinity,the introduction of OH- shows beneficial effects. The abovementioned four kinds of FeOxHy can rapidly adsorb most phosphate within 15 s, and the adsorption process can be well described by the Pseudo-second-order kinetic model. Freundlich model can well describe the adsorption of phosphorus onto these four FeOxHy. The adsorption of phosphate significantly decreases the zeta potential of these in situ FeOxHy. The MINITEQ software can indicate the species distribution of phosphate and iron salts, and the theoretical calculation indicates that the introduced OH- can promote the hydrolysis of Fe3+ especially in low alkalinity system,which can easily adsorb H2PO4- and HPO42- and form the multinuclear hydroxy iron phosphate complexes thereafter.

Abstract The aim of this study is to investigate the efficiency of heterogeneous Photo-bio-Fenton-like process and adsorption process for phosphorus removal from wastewater. The results showed that both of these processes can reach 98 and 92% removal efficiencies phosphate (P) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), respectively. The findings of kinetic and isotherm studies revealed that data of P removal highly correlated with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm. The quenching experiments determined that both hydroxyl radicals and sulfate radicals are key factors for the removal of contamination and the sulfate radicals were also the dominant radicals.

In this study, the biosorption potential of lumbang (Aleurites molucanna)-derived activated carbon towards Cd(II) in aqueous solution was investigated by coating and crosslinking the adsorbent with chitosan and epichlorohydrin, respectively. Batch adsorption studies were performed, and the effects of various parameters were evaluated. Results have shown that the optimum biosorption potential occurs at pH: 6.0, contact time: 45 min, temperature: 40°C, adsorbent dosage: 12 g/L, and initial Cd(II) concentration: 5 ppm. The biosorption kinetic profile obeyed the pseudo second-order kinetic model (R2=96.87%, p<0.001). Preliminary column study and waste water analysis revealed significant removal of Cd(II), with 89.59% and 49.08% of Cd(II) adsorbed and desorbed, respectively. There were significant reductions in the biochemical and chemical oxygen demand values of the waste water before and after passing through the column.

Wastewater Samples

This study investigates the possibility of applying an adsorption process using two abundant natural minerals M1 and M2. Without pretreatment or activation, the adsorbents were used to treat real textile wastewater samples (collected from Fez city, Morocco). As a cost-effective alternative, these materials were characterized by different analyses, including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray fluorescence (XRF). Chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biological oxygen demand (BOD) were used to characterize the textile wastewater. Additionally, the influence of operating conditions (contact time, adsorbent dosages, and pH) was evaluated. Results show that the adsorption process takes place quickly, reaching the equilibrium at 90 and 160 min for M1 (88% COD) and M2 (79% COD). Both materials show a higher affinity to Cr (39%) and lower affinity to Cu (28%). A pseudo-second-order kinetic model provides the best fit to the experimental adsorption data. Germination tests indicate a low toxicity after the adsorption process. Performance of both materials was compared with that of other literature studies.

Objective: In this research, a novel magnetite titanium dioxide nanocomposite functionalized by amine groups (Fe3O4@SiO2@TiO2-NH2) was synthesized and its ability for efficient removal of Acid Fuchsine as an anionic dye from aqueous solutions was investigated. Method: The core-shell structure of Fe3O4@SiO2@TiO2 was prepared using Fe3O4 as magnetic core, tetra ethyl orthosilicate as silica and tetra butyl titanate as titanium source for shell. The synthesized nanocomposites (particle size lower than 44 nm) were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, DRS, SEM and TGA instruments. The various experimental parameters affecting dye removal efficiency were investigated and optimized using Taguchi fractional factorial design. Results: The synthesized adsorbent showed the highest removal efficiency of Acid Fuchsine (99 %) at pH= 3.5, without salt addition and during stirring at contact times less than 10 minutes. The study of kinetic models at two concentration levels showed the fast dye sorption on the surface of proposed nanocomposites with pseudo second order kinetic model (R2=1). Also, the fitting of Acid Fuchsine sorption data to Freundlich, Langmuir and Temkin isotherms suggested that Freundlich model gave a better fitting than other models (R2=0.9936, n=2). Conclusion: Good chemical stability, excellent magnetic properties, very fast adsorption kinetics and high removal efficiency make the synthesized nanocomposite as a proper recoverable sorbent for removal of Acid Fuchsine dye from wastewaters.

Adsorbent made by carbonization of biomass under oxygen-limited conditions has become a promising material for wastewater treatment owing to its cost-effective, simple, and eco-friendly processing method. Ultrasound is considered a green technique to modify carbon materials because it uses water as the solvent. In this study, a comparison of Reactive Black 5 (RB5) adsorption capacity between biochar (BC) generated by pyrolysis of water bamboo (Zizania latifolia) husks at 600 °C and ultrasound-assisted biochar (UBC) produced by pyrolysis at 600 °C assisted by ultrasonic irradiation was performed. UBC showed a greater reaction rate and reached about 80% removal efficiency after 4 h, while it took 24 h for BC to reach that level. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images indicated that the UBC morphology surface was more porous, with the structure of the combination of denser mesopores enhancing physiochemical properties of UBC. By Brunauer, Emmett, and Teller (BET), the specific surface areas of adsorbent materials were analyzed, and the surface areas of BC and UBC were 56.296 m2/g and 141.213 m2/g, respectively. Moreover, the pore volume of UBC was 0.039 cm3/g, which was higher than that of BC at 0.013 cm3/g. The adsorption isotherms and kinetics revealed the better fits of reactions to Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating the inclination towards monolayer adsorption and chemisorption of RB5 on water bamboo husk-based UBC.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the feasibility of phenol adsorption from aqueous solution by Pinus massoniana biochar. Adsorption conditions, including contact time, initial phenol concentration, adsorbent dosage, strength of salt ions and pH, have been investigated by batch experiments. Equilibrium can be reached in 24 h for phenol from 50 to 250 mg• L-1. The optimum pH value for this kind of biochar is 5.0. The amount of phenol adsorbed per unit decreases with the increase in adsorbent dosage. The existence of salt ions makes negligible influence on the equilibrium adsorption capacity. The experimental data is analyzed by the Freundlich and Langmuir isotherm models. Equilibrium data fits well to the Freundlich model. Adsorption kinetics models are deduced and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model provides a good correlation for the adsorbent process. The results show that the Pinus massoniana biochar can be utilized as an effective adsorption material for the removal of phenol from aqueous solution.
