    Comparative study of biosorption of Cu+2, Ni+2, Cd+2, Zn+2 and Co+2 ions on the Pleurotus mutilus biomass
    (Université M'hamed Bougara de Boumerdès, 2018) Madani, A.; Selatnia, A.; Chergui, A.; Yeddou, A.R.; Nadjemi, B.
    In this study the biomass Pleurotus mutilus was used for the biosorption of Cu2+, Ni2+, Cd2+, Zn+2 and Co+2 ions. The effect of different parameters such as contact time, adsorbate concentration, pH of the medium and temperature were investigated. The sorption capacities were in the order of Cd2+ > Zn+2 > Co+2 >Cu2+ > Ni2+ . This order can be explained by their different values of affinities respectively. In order to prediction of the rate controlling step(external or internal mass transfer) , Boyd model was used in all case. Results showed that the external mass transfer is the rate controlling step. Different thermodynamic parameters such as enthalpy and entropy and change in standard free energy have also been evaluated and it has been found that the reaction was spontaneous and exothermic in nature. The Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin and Dubinin-Raduskuvich adsorption models were used for the mathematical description of the biosorption equilibrium.

    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.

    Adsorption of methyl green (MG) in aqueous solution by titanium dioxide (TiO2) : kinetics and thermodynamic study
    (Springer, 2021) Abbas, Moussa
    Adsorption techniques are widely used to remove certain classes of pollutants from waters, especially those that are not easily biodegradable. In this respect, the removal of Methyl green (MG) from waste water using TiO2 was studied in batch system. This research was carried out to evaluate the capability of TiO2 toward the water treatment relevant to organic MG at batch conditions. The effects of contact time (0–60 min), initial pH (3–11), agitation speed (100–500 rpm), temperature (25–45 °C), adsorbent dosage (0.02–6 g/L), and MG concentration (50–200 mg/L) on the MG adsorption by TiO2 have been studied. The adsorption kinetics in view of four kinetic models, i.e., the pseudo-first-order Lagergren, pseudo-second-order, intra-particle diffusion and Elovich models, was discussed. The adsorption of MG is well described by the pseudo-second-order equation with the best determination coefficient (R2 = 0.999). The experimental isotherm data were analyzed by different models; the adsorption follows the Langmuir and Temkin models, providing a better fit of the equilibrium data. The batch adsorption experiments were carried out to optimize the physical parameters on the MG removal efficiency, and it has been found that 384.615 mg/g at 25 °C is removed. The positive value of the activation energy (Ea = 14.1813 kJ/mol) indicates the endothermic nature and clearly that the randomness is increased at the solid–solution interface during the MG adsorption onto TiO2, indicating that some structural exchange occurs among the active sites of the adsorbent and the MG species

    Removal of toxic methyl green (Mg) in aqueous solutions by apricot stone activated carbon – equilibrium and isotherms modeling
    (Taylor & Francis, 2018) Abbas, Moussa; Aksil, Tounsia; Trari, Mohamed
    Apricot stone activated carbon (ASAC), was powdered, activated and to be used as effective adsor-bent to remove the dyes from aqueous solutions through batch experiments under operational factors namely, pH, contact time, adsorbent dose, initial dyes concentration and temperature. The physico-chemical, morphological and structural properties of the adsorbents were characterized by scan-ning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) instruments. Different kinetic modelsindicated that the adsorption is well described by the pseudo-second order model. The isotherms of methyl green (MG) adsorption on ASAC were obtained and correlated with various models. The smaller RMSE values for the Langmuir and Dubinin-Radushkevic models indicated the best fitting; the mono layer adsorption capacity of MG was found to be 148.478 mg g–1 at 21°C and 88.11 mg g–1 at 46°C at pH 10. The thermodynamic functions showed spontaneous and endothermic MG adsorption. In conclusion, the adsorbent prepared from apricot stone (ASAC) was found to very effective and suitable adsorbent for reactive dyes removal from aquatic environment, due to its simple and cheap preparation, easy availability and good adsorption capacity.

    Performance of Streptomyces rimosus biomass in biosorption of heavy metals from aqueous solutions
    (Elsevier, 2018) Sahmoune, Mohamed Nasser
    The removal of heavy metals by Streptomyces rimosus has been the subject of many investigations. This review paper focuses on the removal of heavy metals from aqueous solution through Streptomyces rimosus, produced from pharmaceutical industry as solid waste, as adsorbent, and discusses the effect of various process parameters like pH, temperature, metal concentration etc., on the metal removal efficiency of this bacterium. The paper also evaluates the different kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic models used in Streptomyces rimosus sorption of heavy metals. Biomass characterization and sorption mechanisms as well as elution of metal ions are also discussed. The literature revealed that Streptomyces rimosus had a good affinity for binding lead and iron compared with other heavy metals. The adsorption of heavy metals is well described by Langmuir isotherm, which expresses the existence of monolayer adsorption. The kinetic data followed both pseudo first order and pseudo second order models. Thermodynamic studies showed spontaneous and exothermic nature of the sorption processes in most case. Dilute acids (HCl and H2SO4) are quite effective in desorption of heavy metals. Ion exchange played the chief role in the adsorption mechanism of metal, and carboxyl groups are mainly involved in this mechanism

    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
