Abstract
In this work, magnetic biochars (MBCs) were produced with the chemical coprecipitation method. The resulting materials were dried at 50 °C for 12 h and characterized via SEM-EDS, XRD, FT-IR, BET, TGA, and VSM techniques to evaluate their efficacy in removing Congo red (CR). The effects of solution pH, CR concentration, MBC1:1 mass, and a variety of ions on the adsorption performance were systematically examined. According to the experimental results, for 200 mL of 50 mg/L CR, the highest adsorption capacity of 20 mg MBC1:1 was 172.88 mg/g in a 2 h period at pH 7. Additionally, the pseudo-second-order (PSO) model-based kinetic analysis exhibited that the process of adsorption adhered to this model. Furthermore, the interaction between MBC1:1 and CR was best described by Langmuir multilayer adsorption, according to isotherm analysis. All of these theoretical and practical findings point to the great potential of MBC1:1 as adsorbents for the applications of wastewater treatment.
期刊介绍:
Materials (ISSN 1996-1944) is an open access journal of related scientific research and technology development. It publishes reviews, regular research papers (articles) and short communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Materials provides a forum for publishing papers which advance the in-depth understanding of the relationship between the structure, the properties or the functions of all kinds of materials. Chemical syntheses, chemical structures and mechanical, chemical, electronic, magnetic and optical properties and various applications will be considered.
