Removal of methyl orange from aqueous solutions by magnetic maghemite/chitosan nanocomposite films: Adsorption kinetics and equilibrium

Abstract: Magnetic maghemite (γ‐Fe2O3)/chitosan nanocomposite films were prepared by solution casting method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry and X‐ray diffraction. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out utilizing the composite films to adsorb a typical azo dye, i.e., methyl orange (MO) from aqueous solutions. The effects of adsorbent dosage, solution pH, coexisting anions, and temperature were studied. Adsorption kinetic was ve… Show more

“…Therefore, it is assumed that the adsorption of EGCG onto NICBs and EICBs is the monolayer adsorption on an energetically homogeneous surface. Similar adsorption mechanism of other adsorbates onto chitosan beads was addressed in the previous literatures (Jiang et al 2012;Zuo 2014). The Langmuir adsorption constant b reflects the affinity of the adsorbent for the adsorbate.…”

“…led to the proportionate release of a large quantity of effluent into the environment. In addition, this effluent contained non-biodegradable toxic and carcinogenic dye substances into the environment [1][2][3][4][5]. Rhodamine B (RhB) and chromotrope 2R (C2R) are synthetic dyes that are commonly used in leather, textile, and paper industries and cause various health hazards [6,7].…”

“…Such composite materials have advantages such as enhanced tensile strength, higher toughness, light weight, flexibility and tuneable magnetic and electrical properties [1][2][3]. There has been rapid growth in using PNCs for various applications such as in electromagnetic interference shielding [4], biosensing [5], hyperthermia [6], heavy metal and dye removal [7,8] and for microwave applications [9]. Recently, biopolymer based green PNCs have attracted scientific interest due to their biodegradable and environmental friendly nature.…”
