Abstract
AbstractThe present study investigated crystal violet removal by modifying the chestnut shell with a chemical activation method. For this purpose, H2SO4 and NaOH pretreatments were applied to the chestnut shell and the pretreatment method that gave the best performance under the same conditions was determined. The best adsorption efficiency was achieved with the NaOH pretreatment (99.06%) and the crystal violet adsorption reached equilibrium within 60 min. After selecting the best chemical activation method, the modified chestnut shell was characterized before and after adsorption (FTIR and SEM). Furthermore, the effects of parameters such as pH, initial crystal violet concentration, adsorbent dosage, temperature, and contact time were observed. Moreover, isotherm, kinetics and thermodynamics of the adsorption process were researched in detail. The best results were obtained with the Langmuir isotherm model (R2=0.99) and the pseudo-second-order kinetic model (R2=0.99). Thermodynamic parameters showed that the adsorption process is spontaneous, endothermic and feasible.Keywords: Adsorptioncrystal violetisothermkineticsmodified chestnut shellthermodynamic Authors’ contributionsB.T.G. conducted all the experiments and data analyses and prepared original draft.Disclosure statementThe author declares that there is no conflict of interest.
期刊介绍:
Chemical Engineering Communications provides a forum for the publication of manuscripts reporting on results of both basic and applied research in all areas of chemical engineering. The journal''s audience includes researchers and practitioners in academia, industry, and government.
Chemical Engineering Communications publishes full-length research articles dealing with completed research projects on subjects such as experimentation (both techniques and data) and new theoretical models. Critical review papers reporting on the current state of the art in topical areas of chemical engineering are also welcome; submission of these is strongly encouraged.
