Adsorption of ethidium bromide from aqueous solution onto nutraceutical industrial fennel seed spent: Kinetics and thermodynamics modeling studies

Abstract: Dye pollutants from research laboratories are one of the major sources for environmental contamination. In the present study, a nutraceutical industrial fennel seed spent (NIFSS) was explored as potential adsorbent for removal of ethidium bromide (EtBr) from aqueous solution. The adsorbent was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Through batch experiments, the operating variables like initial dye concentration, adsorbent dosage, temperature, co… Show more

“…Our research school is the first to report the use of NIS as filler material in the fabrication of thermoplastic and thermoset composites [33,[54][55][56][57][58][59][60]65] and for the use as effective adsorbents for remediation of Congo red, methylene blue and ethidium bromide dyes [32,53,64]. Despite myriad research papers reported the use of low-cost agriculture waste as biosorbent for the remediation of toxic dyes; very limited information is available about the use of dye adsorbed biosorbent commonly known as "sludge".…”

“…After the soaking process, the scales were carbonised at 450–750°C for 60–180 min. The resulted activated carbon was then subjected to thermal treatment using a flash pyrolysis technique at 600°C in a fluidisation chamber flowing upward in a vertical direction under low‐pressure application [28]. The obtained sample was continuously washed using de‐ionised water until the supernatant reaches the neutral pH of 7.0.…”

“…Our research school is the first to undertake investigations on the use of NIS as filler material in the fabrication of thermoplastic and thermoset composites (Taqui et al 2019;Syed and Syed 2016a, b;Syed and Syed 2012;Pashaei et al 2011;Syed et al 2010aSyed et al , b, 2011Syed et al 2009). We have also taken a lead in using NIS as adsorbent for remediation of Congo red, methylene blue and ethidium bromide dyes (Taqui et al 2017;Papegowda and Syed 2017;Sulthana et al 2018). Despite myriad research papers reporting on the use of low-cost agricultural waste materials as biosorbents for the remediation of toxic dyes, very limited information is available on the utilization of dye-adsorbed biosorbent or 'sludge.'…”
