    Adsorption Behavior of Methylene Blue Onto Activated Coconut Shells: Kinetic, Thermodynamic, Mechanism and Regeneration of the Adsorbent
    (SAGE, 2024) Abbas, Moussa; Trari, Mohamed
    Adsorption techniques are widely used to remove some classes of pollutants from waters, especially those which are not easily biodegradable. The removal of Methylene blue (MB), as a pollutant, from waste waters of textile, paper, printing and other industries has been addressed by the researchers. The aim of this study is to eliminate MB by Activated Coconut Shells (ACS) produced at low cost by adsorption in batch mode. The ACS was characterized by the FTIR spectroscopy and point of zero charge (pHpzc: 5.06). Some examined factors were found to have significant impacts on the MB uptake of ACS like the initial dye concentration Co (40-120 mg/L), solution pH (2-8), ACS dose (1-12 g/L), agitation speed (50-500 r/min), particles size (1.0- 1.2 mm) and temperature (298-333 K). The best capacity was found at pH 6 with an adsorbent dose 8 g/L, an agitation speed 200 r/min and a contact time of 60 min. Modeling Kinetics and Isotherms shows that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model with R2 (0.935 -0.998) and Langmuir adsorption isotherm model provide better fitness to the experimental data with the maximum adsorption capacity of 30.30 mg/g at 25°C. The separation factor R L (0.933-0.541) in the concentration range studied (10-120 mg/L) shows a favorable adsorption. The isotherms at different temperatures have been used for the determination of the free energy ΔG ° (198-9.72 kJ/mol); enthalpy ΔH ° (82.082 kJ/mol) and entropy ΔS o (245.689 J/K mol) to predict the nature of MB adsorption process. The positive values of (ΔG o ) and (ΔHo ) indicate a non-spontaneous and endothermic MB adsorption with a chemisorption. The adsorbent elaborated from Coconut Shells was found to efficient and suitable for the removal of MB dye from aqueous solutions, due to its availability, low cost preparation and good uptake capacity.

    Potential of titanium dioxide to remove bromothymol blue (BTB) in aqueous solution by batch mode Adsorption–Kinetic, isotherm and thermodynamic studies
    (Springer, 2023) Abbas, Moussa
    The adsorption is widely used to remove certain classes of pollutants from water, especially those that are hardly biodegradable and dyes represent one of these problematic groups. The removal of bromothymol blue (BTB) from wastewater using TiO2 was studied in batch system. The adsorbent TiO2 has a specific surface area of 400 m2/g, a mean crystallites sizes (5–10 nm), and pHpzc equal to 6.5. TiO2 is stable over the whole pH range and constitutes a good compromise between efficiency and stability (in both acidic and basic media), therefore, the use of other additives is not necessary. Its non-toxicity and low energy required for its activation (E ~ 3 eV) as well as its low cost for most of the applications envisaged make it advantageous. The influence of effective variables such as solution pH (1–10), contact time (0–60 min), initial BTB concentration (5–40 mg/l), adsorbent dose of TiO2 (0.2–2 g/l), and temperature (20–60 °C) on the adsorption efficiency was examined, while the BTB content was determined by UV–Vis spectrophotometry. The optimal pH, adsorbent dose, and contact time for the efficient removal were found to be 10, 0.2 g/l, and 30 min, respectively, and the adsorbent was characterized by the BET analysis and point of zero charge (pHpzc). Among the different kinetic models, the experimental data of the BTB removal are well fitted with the pseudo-first-order kinetic model with a high determination coefficient. The evaluation of the fitness of equilibrium data by various conventional isotherm models, based on the R2 value as criterion, show the successful applicability of the Langmuir model for the interpretation of experimental data with a maximum adsorption capacity (qmax) of 27.02 mg/g at 20 °C and R2 of 0.997. The adsorption isotherms at different temperatures have been used for the determination of the free energy (ΔGo = 2.1808 to—1.0981 kJ/mol), enthalpy (ΔHo = 20.74 kJ/mol), and entropy (ΔSo = 65.58 J/mol/K) indicate that the overall adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic in nature

    Thermodynamic and kinetics studies on adsorption of Indigo Carmine from aqueous solution by activated carbon
    (Elsevier, 2019) Harrache, Zahia; Abbas, Moussa; Aksil, Tounsia; Trarib, Mohamed
    The kinetic and equilibrium parameters of the quantitative adsorption for Indigo Carmine (IC) removed by commercial activated carbon (AC) were studied by UV–visible absorption spectroscopy. AC with a high specific surface area (1250.320 m2/g) was characterized by the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method and point of zero charge (pzc). The effect of the initial dye concentration (10–60 mg/L), contact time (0–90 min), pH (1−12), agitation speed (0–600 rpm), adsorbent dose (1–10 g/L) and temperature (298–323 K) were determined to find the optimal conditions for a maximum adsorption. The adsorption mechanism of Indigo Carmine onto AC was studied using the first pseudo order, second pseudo order and Elovich kinetics models. The adsorptions kinetic were found to follow a pseudo second order kinetic model with a determination coefficient (R2) of 0.999. To get an idea on the adsorption mechanism, we applied the Webber-Morris diffusion model. The equilibrium adsorption data for Indigo Carmine on AC were analyzed by the Langmuir, Freundlich, Elovich, Dubinin and Temkin models. The results indicate that the Langmuir model provides the best correlation at 25 °C (qmax = 79.49 mg/g) and Dubinin at 40 °C (qmax = 298.34 mg/g). The adsorption isotherms at different temperatures have been used for the determination of thermodynamic parameters such as free energy (ΔG° = −0.071 to −1.050 kJ/mol), enthalpy (ΔH° = 28.11 kJ/mol), entropy (ΔS° = 0.093 kJ/mol·K) and activation energy (Ea) of 51.06 kJ/mol of adsorption. The negative ΔG° and positive ΔH° values indicate that the overall adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic.

    (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

    Photolysis of bromophenol blue in aqueous solution under uv-irradiation: optimization of the parameters influencing the kinetics of degradation
    (Desalination Publications, 2021) Abbas, Moussa
    Although water purification technologies have advanced considerably, they still come up against certain recalcitrant molecules that are difficult to degrade, such as pesticides, dyes and other indus-trial or agricultural residues. The degradation by photolysis of bromophenol blue (BPB), a textile dye, is studied under UV irradiation in the absence of the catalyst. Various parameters which influ-ence the kinetics of degradation have been studied, of which we can cite the pH, photonic intensity, BPB concentration and irradiation time. This study shows that the change in the chemical oxygen demand (COD) as a function of irradiation time and the mineralization of the solution occurs slowly. 4h of irradiation are necessary to observe 20% of COD which is determined by K2Cr2O7 oxidation in the presence of Ag+ as a catalyst, 96% of the organic compounds are oxidized under these con-ditions. The results show that the apparent rate constants of the BPB degradation augment linearly with the light flux. The discoloration rate of BPB solution augments with increasing pH until an optimum pH of 12, the degradation kinetics shows that the Langmuir–Hinshelwood model gives a better correlation. A total disappearance of BPB was observed after 150min of irradiation, indicating the effectiveness of direct photolysis in eliminating the dye. The apparent rate constants are deter-mined for the different parameters to confirm the validity of the model. The measurement of COD is a determination of organic matter which characterizes the amount of chemically oxidized sub-stances present in water. The results show that the apparent rate constants of the BPB degradation increase linearly with the photonic flux applied in the field of study

    Removal of gentian violet in aqueous solution by activated carbon equilibrium, kinetics, and thermodynamic study
    (SAGE Publications, 2019) Abbas, Moussa; Harrache, Zahia; Trari, Mohamed
    The quantitative kinetic and equilibrium adsorption parameters for chlorure de méthylrosaniline (gentian violet, crystal violet) removed by commercial activated carbon were studied by UV–visible spectroscopy.Activated carbon with a high specific surface area 1250 m2/g was characterized by the Brunauer, Emmett et Teller (BET) method and the zero charge point pH (pzc). The adsorption properties of both activated carbon with gentian violet were conducted at variable stirring speed 100–700 trs/min, adsorbent dose 1–8 g/l, solution pH 1–14, initial gentian violet concentration 5–15 mg/l, contact time 0–50 min, and temperature 299–323 K using batch mode operation to find the optimal conditions for a maximum adsorption. The adsorption mechanism of gentian violet was studied using the pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and Elovich kinetic models. The adsorption kinetics was found to follow a pseudo-second-order kinetic model with a determination coefficient (R2) of 0.999. The Weber–Morris diffusion model was applied for the adsorption mechanism. The equilibrium adsorption data of gentian violet were analyzed by the Langmuir, Freundlich, Elovich, and Temkin models. The results indicate that the Langmuir model provides the best correlation (qmax = 22.727, 32.258 mg/g at 26 and 40°C, respectively). The adsorption isotherms at different temperatures have been used for the determination of thermodynamic parameters, i.e. free energy (ΔG° = − 2.30 to −5.34 kJ/mol), enthalpy (ΔH° = 36.966 kJ/mol), entropy (ΔS° = 0.131 kJ/mol K), and activation energy (Ea) 40.208 kJ/mol of gentian violet adsorption. The negative ΔG° and positive ΔH° indicate that the overall adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic in nature

Trari)Received 1 December 2019; Accepted 25 May 2020abstractMesopores are materials with pore diameters between 2 and 50 nm, are used in several fields such as catalysis, chromatography, adsorption, etc. This study focuses on the potential use of mesoporous Si(Mes) and perovskite (P) as adsorbents, their ability to remove hydroxybenzene from aqueous solutions and the possibilities of elimination of a certain class of phenolic compounds, whose chem-ical structures of which contain functions capable of interacting on the surface of the supports. The adsorbent was characterized by Brunauer–Emmett–Teller, Fourier-transform infrared spectros-copy and X-ray diffraction methods. Batch adsorption experiments were undertaken to assess the effect of physical parameters on the hydroxybenzene removal efficiency. It has been observed that under optimized conditions (pH 4; adsorbent dose 1 g L–1; agitation speed 200 rpm; contact time 90 min); up qmax of 4.210 g of hydroxybenzene/g adsorbent at 25°C were removed from the solution. The adsorption by the adsorbent follows a pseudo-second-order kinetic model with a determina-tion coefficient (R2) of 0.999; which relies on the assumption that the physisorption may be the rate-limiting step. The adsorption at different temperatures has been used for the determination of thermodynamic parameters, the negative free energy (ΔG°) and positive enthalpy (ΔH°) indicate that the overall adsorption is spontaneous and endothermic, while the negative value (ΔS°) states clearly that the randomness increases at the solid-solution interface during the phenol adsorption onto Si(Mes)-(P), indicating that some structural exchange may occur among the active sites of the adsorbent and the ions

    Adsorption in simple batch experiments of Coomassie blue G-250 by apricot stone activated carbon—Kinetics and isotherms modelling
    (Taylor & Francis, 2015) Abbas, Moussa; Cherfi, Abdelhamid; Kaddour, Samia; Aksil, Tounsia
    The preparation of an activated carbon from apricot stones (ASAC) with H3PO4 activation and its ability to remove the Coomassie blue (CB) from aqueous solutions are reported in this study. The spectroscopy method is used to get information on interactions between the functional groups of the adsorbent and the CB. Batch adsorption experiments were first undertaken to assess the effect of various parameters on the removal efficiency of CB. It was observed that under optimized conditions up to 98.022 mg/g could be removed from solution at 50°C. The equilibrium experimental data were analysed using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm equations. An error-based statistic study showed that the isotherm data are well described by the Freundlich model. The suitability of the kinetic models for the adsorption of CB onto ASAC was also investigated. It was found that the adsorption kinetics of the dye obeyed pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The evaluation of thermodynamics parameters such as activation energy of adsorption (Ea: 66.161 kJ/mol) predicted the chemisorption nature of the sorption process. The negative Gibbs free energy (−ΔG° = 15.21–19.27 kJ/mol) and negative enthalpy change (ΔH° = −55.088 kJ/mol) indicated, respectively, the spontaneous and exothermic nature of the reaction
