In the present study, Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite (EBMC) was used for a potential application as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of Reactive Black 5 (RB5). The adsorption experiments were performed with aqueous solution (RB5 + distilled water) and synthetic dye bath wastewater (SDBW) in order to investigate the potential application of EBMC in the textile industry. The effects of the various parameters, the initial dye concentration, the temperature, the pH, and the EBMC dosage on the adsorption were investigated. It was found that the adsorption capacity of EBMC increases by increasing the RB5 concentration and temperature and by decreasing the dosage of EBMC. 0.8 g EBMC was found to be sufficient for the removal of 250 mg/L RB5 from 150 mL SDBW with ∼85% removal efficiency. The Koble-Corrigan isotherm model described the adsorption process more effectively (R = 0.997) than the Langmuir, Freundlich, the Dubinin-Radushkevich and the Jovanovic isotherm models. The Langmuir isotherm predicted a 370.7 mg/g maximum adsorption capacity. The thermodynamic analysis showed that the adsorption of RB5 onto the EBMC was an endothermic process. The multiple linear regression analysis was used in order to determine the cumulative effects of independent variables on the adsorption capacity.

In the present study, Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite was used for potential application as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal Bisphenol-A. The effects of various independent parameters, contact time, initial Bisphenol-A concentration, temperature, pH, and Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite dosage on adsorption were investigated. It was found that the adsorption capacity of Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite increases with the increasing of Bisphenol-A concentration, temperature, and decreasing dosage of Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite. The adsorption capacity was found to be 290.6 mg/g with 0.1 g Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite at pH 7 and 50 C. The Freundlich isotherm model described the adsorption process better (R 2 ¼ 0.998) than the Langmuir, Dubinin-Radushkevich, Jovanovic, and Vieth-Sladek isotherm models. According to multiple linear regression analysis, Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite dosage is the most effective parameter on adsorption capacity at equilibrium and independent variables accounted for 79.4% of the total variability of equilibrium adsorption capacity of Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/magnetite composite.

ÖzBu çalışmada yüzeyi nano manyetit ile kaplanmış Eucalyptus camaldulensis kabukları (NEK), bir tekstil boyar maddesi olan Reaktif Black 39"un (RB39) distile su ve sentetik atıksudan gideriminde düşük maliyetli bir adsorbent olarak kullanılmıştır. Adsorpsiyon üzerine temas zamanı, pH, sıcaklık NEK dozu ve başlangıç boyar madde konsantrasyonu gibi çeşitli parametrelerin etkisi araştırılmıştır. Çalışmalar NEK"in adsorpsiyon kapasitesinin başlangıç boyar madde konsantrasyonunun, pH"ın ve sıcaklığın artmasıyla arttığını, NEK dozunun artmasıyla azaldığını göstermiştir. 300 mg/L RB39"un 150 mL distile sudan yaklaşık %94 verimle giderilmesi için 0,2 g NEK yeterli olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Diğer taraftan 300 mg/L RB39"un sentetik atıksudan yaklaşık %92 verimle giderilmesi için 0,4 g NEK"in yeterli olduğu bulunmuştur. Freundlich izotermi (R 2 =0,993) adsorpsiyon sürecini Langmuir izotermine göre daha etkili bir şekilde açıklamıştır. Langmuir izotermi NEK"in maksimum adsorpsiyon kapasitesini 432,12 mg/g olarak tahmin etmiştir.

Bu çalışmada, Eucalyptus camaldulensis kabuğu/maghemit (ECMC) kompoziti sulu çözeltiden fenol gideriminde düşük maliyetli bir adsorbent olarak kullanılmıştır. ECMC'nin yapısal karakterizasyonu, morfolojisi ve elementel analizleri taramalı elektron mikroskopisi (SEM), enerji dağılımlı X-ışını (EDX) ve X-ışını kırınımı difraktometresi (XRD) ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Adsorpsiyon süreci üzerine temas zamanı, pH, sıcaklık ve başlangıç fenol konsantrasyonu gibi çeşitli parametrelerin etkisi araştırılmıştır. Yapılan çalışmalar ECMC'nin adsorpsiyon kapasitesinin fenol konsantrasyonunun artmasıyla arttığını göstermiştir. ECMC tarafından fenol gideriminde optimum pH'ın 5 olduğu bulunmuştur. 500 mg/L fenol için adsorpsiyon kapasitesi; 1 gram ECMC dozu ile pH 5'de ve 20 °C'de 90,92 mg/g olarak bulunmuştur.

In the present study, Eucalyptus camaldulensis bark/maghemite composite (ECMC) was used for potential application as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of Cr(VI) from aqueous solution. The structural characterization, morphology and elemental analysis of ECMC were performed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-Dispersive X-ray (EDX) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). The effects of various independent parameters, contact time, initial Cr(VI) concentration, temperature, pH, and adsorption were investigated. It was found that the adsorption capacity of ECMC increases with increasing Cr(VI) concentration and temperature. The optimum pH was found to be 2 for the removal of Cr(VI) by ECMC. The adsorption capacity was found to be 70.1 mg/g with 0.1 g ECMC at pH 2 and 30 °C. Additionally, 10 and 50 mg/L Cr(VI) were removed from 100 mL aqueous solution by 0.1 g ECMC with 99 % and 93.46 % removal efficiencies, respectively. Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, Dubinin-Radushkevich, Jovanovic, Smith, Koble Korringen, Vieth-Sladek and Sips Isotherm Models were applied to the experimental data to understand the adsorption mechanism better. The Freundlich Isotherm Model described the adsorption process better (R2 = 0.991) among the other isotherms studied.
