Microcrystalline Cellulose from Groundnut Shell as Potential Adsorbent of Crystal Violet and Methylene Blue. Kinetics, Isotherms and Thermodynamic Studies

Abstract: The isolation of microcrystalline cellulose from a groundnut shell is reported. Adsorption experiments were carried out for the removal of cationic crystal violet and methylene blue and it follows Langmuir model. Positive enthalpy and negative free energy changes have shown endothermic and favorable processes. The results reflect good adsorption process.

“…In this research, we aimed at synthesizing water resistant ZnO-chitosan nanocomposites for the efficient adsorption of dyes from the aqueous medium. Methylene blue was chosen as model dye due to its large consumption by textile, leather, tannery, paper, and pulp processing industries [ 28 ]. Thus, the adsorption parameters, kinetics, isotherms, regeneration, and reusability of the adsorbent materials were evaluated for optimum uptake of the dye from the aqueous medium.…”

“…To measure the pH , 1 g of each PWM and PWC was placed in 40 mL of deionized water in 200-mL flasks separately and stirred for one hour continuously. The pH was measured by using pH meter after stabilization of sample mixtures [22]. Acid-base titrations have been performed to calculate the net surface charge of adsorbent materials using the point of zero charge (pH pzc ).…”

“…Figure 12 shows that removal % of MR rise steadily with rising MR concentration up to 30 ppm; after that, it begins to decrease. The reason is that initially, methyl red molecules were more readily adsorbed on available adsorbent surfaces at adsorption sites because number of adsorption sites on the NiO nanoparticles surface was greater than number of methyl red molecules [48,49]. The MR dye concentration increases further up to 30 ppm, and the removal percentage of MR dye decreases due to the lack of adsorption sites on NiO nanoparticles for further adsorption of methyl red molecules [50,51].…”
