Adsorption of Remazol Brilliant Violet 5R (RBV-5R) and Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) from Aqueous Solution by Using Agriculture Waste

Abstract

The ability of agricultural waste materials to remove synthetic dyes such as Remazol Brilliant Violet 5R (RBV-5R) and Remazol Brilliant Blue R (RBBR) from aqueous solutions was investigated. Dyes are a major source of water contamination that not only cause significant damage to water bodies but also have a negative effect on human health due to their high toxicity and carcinogenic nature. Agricultural wastes are renewable adsorbents because they are readily available and inexpensive, and they can also be used instead of conventional activated carbon. As a result, the removal of RBV-5R and RBBR from dye solutions by adsorption onto treated adsorbent was investigated in this review. The two best adsorbents out of ten were selected via a screening process with RBBR as the test dye. The key adsorbents in this analysis were coconut shells and mango seeds, which had the highest removal rate as compared to others. The experiment was continued with the chosen adsorbent to see how different initial dye concentrations, adsorbent dosage, contact time, pH, and particle size affected dye adsorption. The results show that different parameters have different effects on the removal rate and adsorption potential of the adsorbent. The adsorption of dye from aqueous solution onto adsorbent was investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to investigate the functional groups of the adsorbent before and after the adsorption operation, and it was discovered that the functional group affected the effectiveness or removal rate as well as the adsorption capability of adsorbents. According to the findings, 5 gram mango seeds can extract 85.54 percent of RBV-5R with adsorption power of 1.26 mg/g. For 21 hours, coconut shells removed 74.39 percent of RBBR with an adsorption capacity of 8.01 mg/g. The findings indicated that these agricultural wastes could be useful as an alternative adsorbent for removing dye from aqueous solutions.

Process parameter study and kinetic of remazol dye adsorption onto local rice husk‐based organic porous materials

“…The removal rate was shown to be higher at the beginning of the adsorption process, then decreased after 5 min. This is due to the fact that the adsorbent and dye molecules have strong enough attractive driving force and enough time to interact (Lai, 2021) attributed by the vacant active site available for the dye molecule to occupy. The removal rate started to decrease when the equilibrium between the dye molecule that were adsorbed by the adsorbent and the dye molecules that remained in the solution was not attained (Silva et al., 2016).…”

“…Adsorption is getting attention in the reduction of dye concentration from wastewater since it is economically feasible, environment‐friendly, efficient with no secondary pollution (Zhang et al., 2022), simple design, and ease of operation (Ahmad & Alrozi, 2010). Based on the literature, many studies have developed biochar from agricultural wastes like peanut‐hull (Zhong et al., 2012), mangosteen peel (Ahmad & Alrozi, 2010), stink bean (Lai, 2021), green seaweed (Gokulan et al., 2020), pomegranate fruit peel (Ahmad et al., 2020), guava leaf (Debamita et al., 2020), and Thuja Orientalis leaves (Arya et al., 2020) to be used as adsorbent to remove RBB dyes from water.…”

Application of the Zn0.5Mn0.5Fe2O4–PMMA nanocomposite for efficient removal of complex organic pollutants

“…Among these, adsorption has emerged as a favorable approach for treating dye-containing effluents due to its high efficiency 16 and cost-effectiveness and no secondary pollution generation. [17][18][19] Ferromagnetic nanocomposites (NCPs) have gained great attention recently due to their unique spatial coordinate of z, high adsorption capacity, 20 and high surface area-to-volume ratio. 21 One class of ferromagnetic NCPs are the spinel ferrite nanoparticles, employed in various industries to remove various contaminants, including dyes from wastewater.…”

Removal of Patent Blue Dye Using Ananas comosus-Derived Biochar: Equilibrium, Kinetics, and Phytotoxicity Studies

“…The presence of inorganic and organic contaminants enhances the osmotic pressure of industrial effluents and inhibits microbial activity for dye degradation [17,18]. Adsorption is considered the best, most convenient, easy to maneuver method, which can be conducted using readily available materials for the removal of coloring materials [19]. Adsorption by biochar is one of the most promising and affordable techniques for the elimination of pollutants, which serves as an alternative to energy-intensive technologies [4].…”
