Photocatalytic TMO-NMs adsorbent: Temperature-Time dependent Safranine degradation, sorption study validated under optimized effective equilibrium models parameter with standardized statistical analysis

Abstract

In this paper, chemically synthesized copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO-NPs), were employed for two processes: one is photocatalytic degradation and second one adsorption for the sorption of safranine (SA) dye in an aqueous medium at pH = 12.01. The optimized analytes amount (nano-adsorbent = 0.10 g, conc. range of SA dye 56.13 ppm to 154.37 ppm, pH = 12.01, temperature 303 K) reached to equilibrium point in 80 min, which acquired for chemical adsorption-degradation reactions. The degredated SA dye data’s recorded by UV-visible spectroscopy for the occurrence of TMO-NMs of CuO-NPs at anticipated period of interval. The feasible performance of CuO-NPs was admirable, shows good adsorption capacity qm = 53.676 mg g−1 and most convenient to best fitted results establish by linear regression equation, corresponded for selected kinetic model (pseudo second order (R2 = 0.9981), equilibrium isotherm models (Freundlich, Langmuir, Dubnin-Radushkevich (D-R), Temkin, H-J and Halsey), and thermodynamic parameters (∆H° = 75461.909 J mol−1, ∆S° = 253.761 J mol−1, ∆G° = −1427.93 J mol−1, Ea = 185.142 J mol−1) with error analysis. The statistical study revealed that CuO-NPs was an effective adsorbent certified photocatalytic efficiency (η = 84.88%) for degradation of SA dye, exhibited more feasibility and good affinity toward adsorbate, the sorption capacity increases with increased temperature at equilibrium point.

Mespilus germanica (MG) and Tribulus terrestris (TT) Used as Biosorbents for Lead Removal from Aqueous Solutions: Adsorption Kinetics and Mechanisms

“…e adsorption kinetics depends on the physical and chemical properties of the adsorbent, which affect the adsorption mechanism. To investigate the adsorption mechanism, the adsorption constants can be calculated using the pseudo-second-order kinetics equation [35,36], the pseudo-first-order kinetics equation [37], and the zero-order kinetics equation [38]. e linear form of the pseudo-first-order equation is given in the following equation:…”

“…ZnO nanoparticles have been recognized as one of the most attentive nanoparticles in last few decades of nanotechnology science. It has got this reputation because of its peculiar physiochemical properties 1 – 4 and wide aspects of applications including production of wave fitters, UV detectors, catalysis, paint, transparent conductive field, cosmetics, gas sensors, antibacterial agent and microelectronics 5 – 10 . It has also been used as important constituents in products like personal care products (toothpaste, beauty products and sunscreen) 11 , 12 and textiles products 13 , 14 .…”

Biochar for removal of dyes in contaminated water: an overview

“…Hence the temperature will be a vital design parameter affecting the sorption capacity (Iftekhar 2018). Generally, temperature exhibits a strong impact on the adsorption capacity, and it is directly proportional to the rate of reaction (Wahab et al 2017). The increase in temperature increases physio-sorption and the decrease in temperature will result in a lower rate of physio-sorption.…”
