Adsorption of fast green and erythrosin-B to montmorillonite modified with crystal violet

Adsorption of erythrosin-B (EB) and fast green (FG) to a non-charged organosmectite based on crystal violet adsorbed up to 100% of the cation exchange capacity (CEC) was tested. Adsorption isotherms of EB and FG were prepared at 3, 24 and 50°C. All isotherms are of H-type reaching loads of approximately up to 20% of the original CEC of the crude montmorillonite (up to 0.15 and 0.10 mol dye kg^–1 clay for EB and FG, respectively). Adsorption decreases with temperature, indicating an exothermic process. Enthalpy was evaluated using van’t Hoff equation, yielding approximately –20 kJ mol^–1 for both dyes.

Study of adsorption of methylene blue and new methylene blue in liquid-solid interface by slab optical waveguide spectroscopy

A slab optical waveguide (SOWG) has been used for study of adsorption of both methylene blue (MB) and new methylene blue (NMB) in liquid–solid interface. Adsorption characteristics of MB and NMB on both bare SOWG and silanized SOWG by octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODS) were compared. Effect of pH on adsorption on MB and NMB was investigated. Binding rate constant analysis showed that both MB and NMB on bare SOWG demonstrates larger association constants than those on ODS-SOWG. Interactions of MB and NMB on bare SOWG and ODS-SOWG were analyzed by molecular mechanics calculation method. The binding energy change was in the following order: E_NMB–bare > E_MB–bare > E_NMB–ODS > E_MB–ODS.     

天然蛭石对结晶紫的吸附性能研究

研究了蛭石对结晶紫的吸附特性,考察了溶液pH值、吸附剂用量、搅拌时间、结晶紫浓度、温度对吸附平衡的影响。结果表明,室温下溶液pH=6,蛭石用量为0.2000 g时蛭石对结晶紫的吸附效果最佳,吸附率超过94%。拟二级速率方程能很好地描述蛭石对结晶紫的吸附动力学,相关系数(R2)达到0.9996。不同温度下蛭石对结晶紫的吸附等温线均符合Langmuir方程,相关系数(R2)都在0.9898以上。吉布斯自由能变化△G0,且随着温度升高,吸附量增大,表明该反应是自发进行的吸热反应。     

功能化的石墨烯和磁铁掺杂的还原氧化石墨烯对亚甲基蓝的吸附作用

用简单可行的方法合成了功能化的石墨烯(GNSPF6)和磁铁掺杂的还原氧化石墨烯(RGO-Fe3O4),并进一步研究了pH值、接触的时间和温度对它们吸附亚甲基蓝(MB)的影响.结果表明,随着pH值和温度的增加其吸附量也随之变大,从而说明该吸附过程是自发吸热的.因为GNSPF6的吸附过程只用了不到20min的时间,所以它的吸附是高效的.用经典的准一级反应、准二级反应和粒内扩散模型对其吸附过程进行动态分析,从结果可以发现,准二级动力学模型比准一级动力学模型更适用于描述吸附过程.采用传统的Langmuir,Freundlich和L-F吸附等温线模型来模拟分析数据,在20℃时,由Langmuir吸附等温线模型模拟分析得知GNSPF6和RGO-Fe3O4对MB的最大吸附量分别为374.4和118.4mg/g.     

Glycine‐functionalized reduced graphene oxide for methylene blue removal

Glycine‐functionalized reduced graphene oxide (GRGO) was prepared through the reaction of glycine and chlorine‐functionalized reduced graphene oxide. The product was characterized by SEM, HRTEM, IR, Raman, and XPS. The nitrogen content (8.28%) was high in product, peak at 285.8 eV was assigned to the C–N bond, which implied that the chlorine residues in raw material were substituted by amine group of glycine. The intensity ratio of D and G peak was about 1.5, which also implied that more saturated carbon atoms were present in the product. Results of SEM, IR, and XPS confirmed that glycine molecules were attached to graphene sheets. Compared with reduced graphene oxide (61.5 mg/g) and active carbon (45.2 mg/g), GRGO had a good adsorption capacity (98.9 mg/g) for methylene blue. The adsorption process was fitted to three kinetic models and three adsorption isotherm models. The adsorption process complied with pseudo‐second order kinetic model and Langmuir model.

Facile synthesis of magnetic hybrid metal–organic frameworks with high adsorption capacity for methylene blue

A magnetic hybrid material (Fe₃O₄‐COOH/HKUST‐1) was easily synthesized via a two‐step simple solvothermal method. Through adding sodium acrylate directly into the synthesis of Fe₃O₄ spheres, the surface has more carboxyl groups. It is notable that the reactions proceed without use of organic surfactants. The magnetic hybrid material was characterized using various techniques. The magnetic hybrid material has a high specific surface area (430.15 m² g⁻¹) and excellent magnetism (23.65 emu g⁻¹). It is an efficient adsorbent for removing organic dyes like methylene blue (MB) from aqueous solution. It also can be easily recovered from liquid media using an external magnetic field. Adsorption experiment shows the magnetic hybrid material possesses a high adsorption capacity (118.6 mg g⁻¹), and has high adsorption efficiency (94.3%) after five adsorption cycles with ethanol (0.2% HCl) as eluent. The sorption kinetics and isotherm analysis indicate these sorption processes are better fitted to the pseudo‐second‐order and Langmuir equations. Thermodynamic study shows the sorption processes are spontaneous and endothermic.     

Removal of methylene blue by seed-watermelon pulp-based low-cost adsorbent: Study of adsorption isotherms and kinetic models

Based on the abundance of seed-watermelon pulp (SWP) in Xinjiang, China, SWP was employed to prepare low-cost adsorbent toward the removal of methylene blue (MB). The effects of contact time at different initial concentration were studied. The widely used adsorption isotherm models including Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherms were employed to depict the adsorption process. The Langmuir isotherm was best fitted to the experimental data. Batch kinetic studies showed that an equilibrium time of 300 minutes was needed for the adsorption. The adsorption properties can be well described by pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the MB uptake was not controlled by intraparticle diffusion mechanism.     

Simultaneous determination of methylene blue and new methylene blue by slab optical waveguide spectroscopy and artificial neural networks

A slab optical waveguide (SOWG) has been used for study of adsorption of both methylene blue (MB) and new methylene blue (NMB) in liquid-solid interface. Adsorption characteristics of MB and NMB on both bare SOWG and silanized SOWG by octadecyltrichlorosilane (ODS) were compared. The simultaneous determinations of both MB and NMB were explored by flow injection SOWG spectrophotometric analysis and artificial neural networks (ANNs) for the first time. Concentrations of MB and NMB were estimated simultaneously with the ANNs. Results obtained with SOWG were compared with those got by conventional UV-visible spectrophotometry.

Thermal diffusion with stepwise association equilibria in aqueous solutions of the ionic dyes methylene blue and methyl orange

Soret coefficients are measured conductimetrically for dilute aqueous solutions of the stepwise-associating ionic dyes methylene blue (chloride salt) and methyl orange (sodium salt) at 25°C. In contrast to the behavior of other dilute aqueous electrolytes, the Soret coefficients of the dyes increase with concentration. An approximate treatment of thermal diffusion of stepwise-associating solutes is developed to interpret the results. The analysis is used to estimate the intrinsic enthalpies of transport of the monomeric and the associated forms of the dyes. The enthalpy of association makes a large reactive contribution to the enthalpy of transport of methyl orange.     

Pulse radiolysis of methylene blue and toluidine blue in PVA

Pulse radiolysis experiments were carried out with aqueous solutions of thionine dye methylene blue (MB) and toluidine blue in the presence of polyvinyl alcohol. The transient spectra obtained show maxima at 400 and 880 nm and are assigned to the respective semiquinone radical anions. The semiquinone radical decayed by a second order process. Furthermore, MB in PVA films were bleached by γ-radiolysis and the change in absorption was found to be linear with the dose.     

Kinetic modeling of ZnO-rGO catalyzed degradation of methylene blue

Photodegradation of organic pollutants strongly depends on design of metal oxide semiconductor photocatalysts. Graphene, if composited with ZnO, can effectively enhance its photocatalytic performance for the eradication of pollutants from aqueous medium. Here in, ZnO-rGO is reported as highly active catalyst for degradation of methylene blue. A 200-mg/L solution of methylene blue dye was completely degraded within 1 h in comparison to 74% and 56% degradation over ZnO and rGO, respectively. The commonly used mechanisms of heterogeneous catalytic reactions, the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism, and the Eley-Rideal mechanisms, were used to describe the reaction kinetics. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism was found as more favorable in this study. Apparent activation energy, E_ap, true activation energy, E_T, entropy, ΔS, and enthalpy, ΔH were calculated as 36.2 kJ/mol, 13.1 kJ/mol, 197.5 J/mol, and 23.1 kJ/mol, respectively.

Equilibrium and kinetic study of novel methyltrimethoxysilane magnetic titanium dioxide nanocomposite for methylene blue adsorption from aqueous media

Novel magnetic titanium dioxide nanoparticles decorated with methyltrimethoxysilane (Fe₃O₄@TiO₂‐MTMOS) were successfully fabricated via a sol–gel method at room temperature. The synthesized material was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and vibrating sample magnetometry. The removal efficiency of the adsorbent was evaluated through the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) dye from water samples. The adsorption isotherm and kinetics were evaluated using various models. The Langmuir model indicated a high adsorption capacity (11.5 mg g^?1) of Fe₃O₄@TiO₂‐MTMOS. The nanocomposite exhibited high removal efficiency (96%) and good regeneration (10 times) compared to Fe₃O₄ and Fe₃O₄@TiO₂ at pH = 9.0. Based on the adsorption mechanism, electrostatic interaction plays a main role in adsorption since MB dye is cationic in nature at pH = 9, whereas the adsorbent acquired an anionic nature. The newly synthesized Fe₃O₄@TiO₂‐MTMOS can be used as a promising material for efficient removal of MB dye from aqueous media.

Native and hydrophobized human IGG: Enthalpies of heat-induced structural changes and adsorption onto silica

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and isothermal calorimetric batch technique were used to monitor the heat-induced structural changes and adsorption properties of human immunoglobulin G (IgG), in native and hydrophobized states. The transition temperature (T _max) and enthalpy of heat-induced conformational changes (_cal H) of IgG in solution as well as the enthalpy change accompanying the adsorption of IgG onto hydrophilic silica (_ads H), were shown to depend on the degree of the protein hydrophobicity (number of covalently attached alkyl chains). The adsorption enthalpy for all forms of IgG at all surface concentrations was found to be endothermic, that is the process is entropy driven. Factors affecting the IgG adsorption onto silica are discussed.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.
