“…We observed that the R 2 coefficients determinedfor the pseudo-firstorder model were higher than the pseudo-second-order model values for this nanohybrid adsorbent. In addition, the computed equilibrium uptakes of the pseudo-first-order (PFO) expression are closer to the experimental values, thus indicating the applicability of this model, which can describe very well the Az sorption process onto Ni/Zn LDH nanoadsorbent via a physical sorption [57].…”

A membranous shaped Ni/Zn layered double hydroxide based nanohybrid was obtained using a low-cost template-free hydrothermal process at optimized growth conditions of 180 °C for 6 h. The synthesized nanohybrid was structurally, texturally and morphologically characterized using different techniques such as X-ray diffraction, FTIR, XPS spectroscopy, BET analysis and FESEM microscopy. The adsorption performance of our product was estimated through the Azorubine dye removal from synthetic wastewater. We therefore studied the synergic effects of Ni/Zn adsorbent dosage, contact time, pH, adsorbate concentration, stirring speed and temperature on the Azorubine adsorption efficiency. In this investigation, we obtained bi-structure based nanoadsorbent with 54% crystallinity order composed of nickel hydrate and zinc carbonate hydroxides in irregular nanoflake-like mesoporous nanohybrid morphology. Interestingly, it was also revealed to have high specific surface area (SSA) of around 110 m2 g−1 with important textural properties of 18 nm and 0.68 cm3 g−1 average pore size and volume, respectively. Moreover, the adsorption results revealed that this novel Ni/Zn layered double hydroxide (Ni/Zn LDH) was an efficient adsorbent for Az molecule and possesses an adsorptive ability exhibiting a short equilibrium time (60 min) and a high Az adsorption capability (223 mg g−1). This fast removal efficiency was attributed to high contact surface area via mesoporous active sites accompanied with the presence of functional groups (OH− and CO32−). In addition, the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms were studied, and the results fitted better to the Langmuir isotherm.

Dye pollution is a serious threat to aquatic environment and human health. Although activated carbon is an efficient adsorbent for dye reclamation from effluents, its expressive nature renders its use on large commercial scales. On the other hand, waste biomasses are not effectively used for any beneficial purposes. Sawdust is a waste biomass of wood mills, and due to its small particle sizes, it has the potential to be used as adsorbent. In spite of its uses for cooking purposes, it is sometimes used as adsorbent as such or converted into activated carbon. In raw form, it is not a good adsorbent; however, its adsorption capacity can be increased by applying chemical modifications. In the present study, sawdust of paper mulberry (Broussonetia papyrifera) was used as adsorbent for the removal of basic blue 3 and methylene green from water after chemical modification with NaOH and HCl in 1 : 1. The prepared adsorbent was characterized by SEM and FTIR, whereas the surface area was estimated through an already reported method in literature. Batch experiments were performed to determine the isothermal and kinetic parameters of the selected dyes adsorption on activated sawdust. The effect of adsorbent dosage and temperature on adsorption were also evaluated. The best fit of the kinetic data was achieved with pseudosecond-order model for which R 2 values were approximately equal to 1 whereas Langmuir model was most suitable model to explain the isothermal data. The optimum adsorbent dosage was 0.05 g for both of the selected dyes. Different thermodynamic parameters, such as enthalpy ( ∆ H = 18.5 and 8.334 kJ/mol respectively for basic blue 3 and methylene green), entropy ( ∆ S ° = 62.41 and 29.22 kJ/molK respectively for basic blue 3 and methylene green), and Gibbs free energy ( ∆ G ° = − 83.6 , -410, and -1658 kJ/mol (basic blue)/-65, -519, and -1139 kJ/mol (methylene green), were estimated, and the process was found to be endothermic, spontaneous, and feasible. The increase in Δ G ° with increase in temperature indicates that the adsorption process is favorable at high temperature. The prepared adsorbent could be effectively used in the reclamation of water loaded with other contaminants; however, further experiments are needed to increase the adsorption capacity of the adsorbent.

“…A comparison of present adsorbent capacity with the reported one in literature is given in Table 5. However, one must not be confused about its low adsorbent capacity value as activated carbon being used in the cited studies have a high surface area as compared to our present adsorbent [23][24][25]. The activated sawdust effectively removed the selected dye from water.…”

In this study, Ailanthus altissima sawdust was chemically activated and characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Energy Dispersive X rays (EDX), and surface area analyzer. The sawdust was used as an adsorbent for the removal of azo dye; Acid Yellow 29 (AY 29) from wastewater. Different kinetic and equilibrium models were used to calculate the adsorption parameters. Among the applied models, the more suitable model was Freundlich with maximum adsorption capacities of 9.464, 12.798, and 11.46 mg/g at 20 °C, 30 °C, and 40 °C respectively while R2 values close to 1. Moreover, the kinetic data was best fitted in pseudo second order kinetic model with high R2 values approaching to 1. Furthermore, adsorption thermodynamics parameters such as free energy, enthalpy, and entropy were calculated and the adsorption process was found to be exothermic with a value of ∆H° = −9.981 KJ mol−1, spontaneous that was concluded from ΔG° values which were negative (−0.275, −3.422, and −6.171 KJ mol−1 at 20, 30, and 40 °C respectively). A positive entropy change ∆S° with a value of 0.0363 KJ mol−1 indicated the increase disorder during adsorption process. It was concluded that the activated sawdust could be used as a suitable adsorbent for the removal of waste material, especially dyes from polluted waters.
