Manganese oxide-coffee husk and khat (Catha edulis) leftover biochar nanocomposites for removal of Cr(VI) from wastewater
This study investigates the use of manganese oxide-biochar-nanocomposites synthesized from coffee husk (CH) and khat leftover (KL) for Cr(VI) removal from water. Two pristine biochars of CH and KL were separately synthesized by pyrolyzing their biomasses at 300 ℃ for 1 h. Similarly, biochar-based nanocomposites were synthesized by pretreating 25 g of each biomass with 12.5 mmol of KMnO4 and pyrolyzing at 300 ℃ for 1 h. The pristine biochars, synthesized by pyrolysis of CH and KL, removed 74.98% and 84.78% of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutions containing 20 mg L-1, respectively. However, the resulting nanocomposites exhibited a maximum removal efficiency of 99.63% with manganese oxide-coffee husk biochar nanocomposite (MnOX-CHBNC) and 99.84% with manganese oxide-khat leftover biochar nanocomposite (MnOX-KLBNC) of the Cr(VI). The adsorption isotherm fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm, indicating favorable monolayer adsorption. The kinetics of adsorption followed the pseudo-first-order model. The MnOX-CHBNC and MnOX-KLBNC demonstrated satisfactory removal efficiencies even up to six cycles, indicating their potential effectiveness for large-scale use in removing Cr (VI) from wastewater.

期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
