    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.

    Feasibility study of adsorption of a textile dye on activated carbon prepared starting from the coffee grounds
    (Aljest, 2017) Mahdi, K.; Benrachedi, K.
    The activated carbon used in this study is prepared starting from the coffee ground whose abundance is important in our country and of which the use is often limited to food consummation. The physical characterization (porosity and surface) was determined by the adsorption of gas nitrogen to 77 K (BET), showed the presence of macropores (1.77 m2 /g), as well as the analysis by electronic scan microscopy MEB revealed the presence of a broad specific surface. The activated carbon obtained starting from the coffee ground was the object of an application to the aqueous medium for tests of elimination of a cation dye (methylene blue) used in the industry of textile, prepared synthetically. Several parameters were studied in order to optimize the ideal conditions for a good adsorption of the pollutant to study; in particular, the kinetics of adsorption, the effect of the initial concentration and the effect of the pH of the solution examined. The simulated isotherms of adsorption are very correctly described by the models of Langmuir and Freundlich. The percentage of discolouration reached is of: 99%. Therefore, one can conclude that this study showed that the coffee ground chemically activated can be used like new adsorbent for the water treatment contaminated by the textile dyes

    Removal of methylene blue in aqueous solution by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide in presence of copper-impregnated activated alumina
    (Aljest, 2019) Bousalah, Djedjiga; Yeddou, A. R.; Hachemi, M.; Nadjemi, B.
    In this work, methylene blue in aqueous solution is removed by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of copper impregnated activated alumina. After preparation and characterization of the catalyst, the catalytic oxidation tests are performed. The effects of pH, H2O2 concentration, catalyst dose, and temperature have been investigated. The tests show that adding activated alumina increases significatively the degradation effeciency of methylene blue. The reuse of catalyst for four cycls shows a good catalytic stability. The elevation of the temperature affects positively the kinetics of degradation. The acidified medium increases the decolorization efficiency of dye.

    (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

    Removal of Methylene Blue in Aqueous Solution by Economic Adsorbent Derived from Apricot Stone Activated Carbon
    (Springer link, 2020) Abbas, Moussa; Trari, Mohamed
    Quantitative adsorption kinetic and equilibrium parameters for methylene blue (MB) used in the textile industry from aqueous solutions were reported in this study using pHPZC and UV-visible absorption spectroscopy. The effects of adsorbent dosage (1–10 g/l), agitation speed (100–1200 rpm), particule size (63 µm to 2 mm), initial dye concentration (4–15 mg/l), contact time, pH (2–14), and temperature (298–338 K) were determined to find the optimal conditions for adsorption. The FTIR spectroscopy is used to get information on interactions between the adsorbent and MB. The mechanism of adsorption of MB dyeing onto Apricot Stone Activated Carbon (ASAC) was investigated using the pseudo first-order, pseudo second-order kinetic, Elovich and intraparticles diffusion models. The adsorption isotherms of MB onto ASAC are determined and correlated with common isotherm equations. The smaller RMSE value obtained for the Langmuir model indicates the better curve-fitting and the monolayer adsorption capacity of MB is found to be 46.03 mg/g at 25 °C and 88.50 mg/g at 70 °C and pH 10. The evaluation of thermodynamics parameters such as the negative free energy ΔG° (+2.70025 to −1.76666 kJ/mol) and positive enthalpy change ΔH° (28.87613 kJ/mol) indicated a spontaneous and endothermic nature of the reaction with chemisorption process. This study in tiny batch gave rise to encouraging results, and we wish to achieve the adsorption tests in column mode under the real conditions applicable to the treatment of industrial effluents. The present investigation showed that ASAC is potentially a useful adsorbent for the heavy metals and dyes
