Industrial Cellolignin Wastes as Adsorbent for Removal of Methylene Blue Dye from Aqueous Solutions

Abstract: Cellolignin, a by-product from the wood processing industry, was studied as a new, eco-friendly adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue cationic dye from aqueous solutions, using a batch adsorption procedure. Experimental data were processed in order to study the equilibrium, thermodynamics, and kinetics of methylene blue adsorption onto cellolignin. Between the two studied isotherm models (Freundlich and Langmuir) the Langmuir model better described the equilibrium adsorption data at temperatures higher t… Show more

“…And if the line passes through the origin, then the intra-particle diffusion is the only rate-limiting step [223]. In the current study, the plots of the intra-particle diffusion model did not pass through the origin indicating that the intra-particle diffusion is not the sole limiting-step but the film diffusion also played an important role in adsorption.…”

“…In accordance with other studies, an activation energy of 5-40 kJ mol -1 corresponds to physical sorption, while 40-800 kJ mol -1 corresponds to [44][45][46]. Sorption of As(III), As(V), Sb(III), Sb(V), Te(IV) and Te(VI) on Fe-modified peat mainly occur according to mechanisms of physical sorption processes.…”
