Hybrid central composite design optimization for removal of Methylene blue by Acer tree leaves: characterization of adsorption

Abstract: A B S T R A C TStatistical experimental design was utilized to optimize the removal of Methylene blue (MB) by Acer tree leaves through a batch biosorption process. Acer tree leaves were introduced as a novel and low-cost biosorbent for removing MB from aqueous solutions. The influence of various factors, such as initial pH, initial concentration of dye, and sorbent mass on the MB biosorption was investigated. A regression model was derived using a response surface methodology through performing the hybrid cent… Show more

“…Central composite design was applied as an appropriate RSM for optimization approach in this study . Four important factors, such as the initial concentration of dyes (AR and CR), pH, and the sorbent mass (m), are considered as independent variables . Their experimental ranges and their levels for a central composite matrix design are shown in Table .…”

“…It is because of their large surface area and high activity level, caused by the size quantization effect . Up to now, most removal dye studies have focused on single dye; however, two or more mixtures of dyes' removal are still rare . The most discharging industrial effluents include a mixture of several dyes, so it is vital to study the simultaneous removal of two or more dyes from aqueous solutions, which are more likely to be in the real effluent samples .…”

“…It corresponds to the interaction of dyes to C–O band (Figure B). The variation of intensity and shift of the band from 3318 to 3314 and 1068 to 1064 cm −1 confirm that 2 functional groups, both carboxyl and either amine or hydroxyl (phenolic), are involved in dye binding . Also, various absorption peaks appearing in Figure B are attributed to the adsorbed AR and MB dyes on the biosorbent.…”
