Application of Pineapple Leaves as Adsorbents for Removal of Rose Bengal from Wastewater: Process Optimization Operating Face-Centered Central Composite Design (FCCCD)

Abstract: Adsorptive removal of rose bengal (RB) from contaminated water samples was approached using pineapple leaves (PAL). Three adsorbents were utilized for that purpose; raw pineapple leaves (RPAL) and the thermally activated bio-waste leaves at 250 and 500 °C. Two measures were executed to evaluate the functionality of exploited biomasses; percentage removal (%R) and adsorption capacity (qe). Face-centered central composite design (FCCCD) was conducted to experiment the influence of variables on the %R. Dose of PA… Show more

“…Applications included the removal of organics, e.g., PhACs, pesticides, dyes, etc. [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22], as well as inorganics [23,24]. By and large, biochars obtained from agro-wastes possess high surface area, unique pore size and pore distribution, in addition to being cost-effective.…”

“…Reusing this suppositional byproduct via a more profitable approach is therefore needed. Biochars (BC) of natural origin with their high surface area, pore volume, unique surface chemistry and liability for functionalization, are therefore a perfect fit for the physi– and chemisorption of aquatic pollutants [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 ]. Yet, the selectivity and adsorption capability of these biomasses are sometimes questionable.…”

“…In addition to the already known adsorbents, more effective and appropriate materials are being sought. The popular sorbents such as activated carbons [ 1 ], zeolites [ 2 , 3 ], low-cost adsorbents [ 4 , 5 , 6 ], ion exchange resins [ 7 , 8 ], have found application in dye removal technologies. Dyes are widely used in the textile, chemical and cellulose industries, for the production of plastics, paints and varnishes.…”
