“…Among all of the heavy metals, Cr is one of the main 16 toxic metals considered detrimental for human health [11]. Cr(III) is a human micronutrient, while Cr(VI) is extremely toxic and is a strong oxidizing agent [12]. The presence of Cr(VI) in water can cause severe diseases, such as kidney circulation, dermatitis and lung cancer [13,14].…”

In this study, activated carbon microsphere (SLACM) was prepared from powdered sodium lignosulfonate (SL) and polystyrene by the Mannich reaction and ZnCl2 activation, which can be used to remove Cr(VI) from the aqueous solution without adding any binder. The SLACM was characterized and the batch experiments were conducted under different initial pH values, initial concentrations, contact time durations and temperatures to investigate the adsorption performance of Cr(VI) onto SLACM. The results indicated that the SLACM surface area and average pore size were 769.37 m2/g and 2.46 nm (the mesoporous material), respectively. It was found that the reduced initial pH value, the increased temperature and initial Cr(VI) concentration were beneficial to Cr(VI) adsorption. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cr(VI) on SLACM was 227.7 mg/g at an initial pH value of 2 and the temperature of 40 °C. The adsorption of SLACM for Cr(VI) mainly occurred during the initial stages of the adsorption process. The adsorption kinetic and isotherm experimental data were thoroughly described by Elovich and Langmuir models, respectively. SL could be considered as a potential raw material for the production of activated carbon, which had a considerable potential for the Cr(VI) removal from wastewater.

“…Moreover, strict environmental mechanisms and the enactment of legal standards is necessary to avoid excessive discharge of Cr(VI) into potable water sources [15]. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has recommended that the maximum concentration of Cr(VI) in drinking water not exceed more than 0.05 mg/L [12].…”

“…Large amounts of chromium in the supply of waste are harmful to human health and environment (Parlayici and Pehlivan 2019). Many methods such as solvent extraction, filtration (Hanif and Shahzad 2014;Solomon et al 2013;Yang et al 2010), ion exchange, membrane process, precipitation, and adsorption were applied to Cr (VI) elimination from contaminated wastewater (Fan et al 2012;Kaya et al 2014).…”

PAN nanofiber-Mat (n-fib@Mat), PAN/ZnO n-fib@Mat, and PAN/ZnO-TiO 2 n-fib@Mat were prepared via electrospinning method. Their high adsorption capacities against dissolved Cr (VI) ions make them as super adsorbents for water treatment. The structure of n-fib@Mat was investigated using XRD, FTIR, SEM, and TEM techniques. The effects of selected parameters such as contact time, initial concentration, and n-fib@Mat amount were assessed in a fixed bed reactor. It was found that the adsorption capacities of PAN n-fib@Mat, PAN/ZnO n-fib@Mat, and PAN/ZnO-TiO 2 n-fib@Mat were pH-dependent and the optimal pH value was between 2.1 and 2.2. The adsorption was rapid, and the equilibrium was reached within 240 min to remove of Cr (VI) ions for PAN/ZnO-TiO 2 n-fib@Mat and 360 min for PAN n-fib@Mat and PAN-ZnO n-fib@Mat. Langmuir isotherms model is preferred for PAN n-fib@Mat, PAN-ZnO n-fib@Mat, and PAN/ZnO-TiO 2 n-fib@Mat for Cr (VI) adsorption. The equilibrium adsorption capacities are 153.85 mg/g, 234.52 mg/g, and 333.43 mg/g for PAN n-fib@Mat, PAN/ZnO n-fib@Mat, and PAN/ZnO-TiO 2 n-fib@Mat for Cr (VI), respectively. The produced n-fib@Mat showed excellent removal ability for Cr (VI). The adsorption kinetic was obeyed pseudo-second-order reaction rate.

“…The worldwide annual production of dyes is about 7 × 10 5 tons and these dyes are discharged into waste streams by the aforementioned industries that cause negative impact to the environment and human health [1,2]. Besides from being highly coloured, studies have also shown that some dyes, dye precursors and their biotransformation products could be health threatening as they are toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic in nature [3,4]. For instance, cationic dyes, which are widely used in colouring acrylic fibre are considered to be more toxic than other classes of dyes [5,6].…”

“…Malachite Green (MG), which is a type of cationic dye, has been selected as the adsorbate in this study because from the available scientific evidence, MG poses a serious health concerning issue. MG is known to be a multi-organ toxin and its potential carcinogenic, teratogenic, mutagenic and genotoxic properties has been well documented [4,[7][8][9][10][11].…”

SHIN-LEEI OOI a and SIEW-TENG ONG a,b* ABSTRACT. Oil palm fruit fibre (OPFF) was investigated for its potential and probability to remove heavy metal ion and dye from the aqueous solutions. Different operational parameters were studied under batch experiment. The effective pH to attain maximum adsorption of MG and Pb(II) by OPFF was around pH 4 to 5. The adsorption process was rapid at the beginning and slowly achieved equilibrium within 180 minutes and 120 minutes for MG and Pb(II), respectively. From the experimental result, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model provided better correlation compared to pseudo-first-order kinetic model with R 2 > 0.999. Various isotherm equations, such as Langmuir, Freundlich, and BET isotherm models were used to analyze the adsorption isotherm result. The experimental data fitted well into Langmuir and BET isotherm models with R 2 = 0.996 and 0.984, respectively. The maximum adsorption capacity of OPFF from Langmuir equation was 41.67 and 10.10 mg/g for MG and Pb(II), respectively. Besides, characterization study of OPFF which include point of zero charge (pHzpc), chemical modification on the functional group and surface morphology was also performed in this study.
