    Adsorption of malachite green (MG) onto apricot stone activated Carbon (ASAC)-Equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies
    (2017) Abbas, Moussa; Aksil, Tounsia
    The adsorption of malachite green (MG) onto apricot stone activated carbon (ASAC) in a batch adsorber and the effects of contact time, initial pH, agitation speed, adsorbent dosage and initial dye concentration on the MG adsorption by the ASAC have been studied. It was observed that under optimized conditions up to 23.94 mg/g at 25 oC and 88.5 mg/g at 70 oC could be removed from solution. Kinetic parameters; rate constants, equilibrium adsorptin capacities and correlation coefficients, for each kinetic equation were calculated and discussed. It was shown that the adsorption of MG onto ASAC could be described by the pseudo second-order equation. The experimental isotherm data were analyzed using the Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, Elovich and Redlich-Peterson equations. Adsorption of MG onto ASAC followed the Langmuir isotherm. The evaluation of thermodynamics parameters such as the negative Gibbs free energy and positive enthalpy change indicated respectively the spontaneous and endothermic nature of the reaction and the chimisorption of the sorption process

    Removal in batch mode experiment of Methylene Blue onto trimming Wood of Orange Tree –Equilibrium and Kinetics Studies –
    (ALJEST, 2018) Sifoun, Naima; Abbas, Moussa; Yeddou, A. R.; Nouri, L.; Nadjemi, B.
    In the present study, adsorption of Methylene Blue (MB) from aqueous solution was investigated using an adsorbent derived from Trimming Wood of Orange Tree (WOT). The used adsorbent was analyzed using FT-IR and SEM techniques.The adsorption of MB was carried out using a batch system and the effects of adsorbent dose, initial pH, ionic strength, contact time, initial concentration and temperature on the adsorption capacity of adsorbent were investigated. Kinetic parameters, rate constants, equilibrium adsorption capacities and determination coefficients, for each kinetic equation were calculated and discussed. It was shown that the adsorption of MB onto WOT could be described by the pseudo-second order kinetic. The experimental isotherm data were analyzed using the Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin models. Adsorption of MB onto WOT followed the Langmuir isotherm for all temperatures studied and the maximum MB uptake was observed as 48.78 mg/g at 293 K. The evaluation of thermodynamics parameters such as the negative Gibbsfree energy and negative enthalpy change indicated respectively the spontaneous and exothermic nature of thesorptionprocess
