Adsorption of neutral red dye by chitosan and activated carbon composite films

Abstract: Research indicates the use of adsorbent materials to remove pollutants from wastewater and effluents, which can be obtained from renewable materials such as biomass, biopolymers (chitosan) or composites. Thus, the objective of this work was to produce and evaluate activated carbon (AC) and chitosan composite films as adsorbents of neutral red dye. AC films were produced using CO 2 and water vapor. The variables of the activation process were time (1 and 2 h) and temperature (600 and 750 C). Five films were pro… Show more

“…The decrease in pore size and volume of Ag-composites clearly suggests the adsorption of Ag NCs on support materials. CE, CH, and NA showed pore sizes of 10.4 nm, 2.26 nm, and 10.9 nm, respectively, as mentioned in the literature. Hence, the pore sizes of CE, CH, and NA obtained in the present work are in well agreement with the reported values.…”

“…The bands at 1406 cm −1 and 1035 cm −1 are assigned to the angular deformation of C-H of the CH 3 group and to C-O binding and stretching, respectively. These results are close to those recorded for activated carbon/chitosan composites investigated elsewhere [33]. By comparing the two spectra (before and after adsorption), it was noticed that there was no change in the peaks.…”

“…The MDLZ adsorbent exhibited a considerably greater adsorption capacity ( q m ) for CV (39.37 mg g −1 ), CR (239.81 mg g −1 ), and NR (321.54 mg g −1 ) at 25 °C when compared to other adsorbents listed in Table 2. 36–60…”
