“…The conventional methods that are employed for the removal of heavy metals, dyes and pigments are found to be inefficient and expensive, especially when treating wastewater with low concentration of heavy metals. Some of these methods generate chemical or biological sludge which cannot be recovered or regenerated (Seetha et al 2012;Dauda et al 2010;Rao et al 2009;Aydin et al 2008;El-Ashtoukhy et al 2008;Sud et al 2008;Dabrowski et al 2004;Zhen et al 2002;Volesky and Leusch 1995).…”

“…The percentage of Cu(II) ion adsorbed at active site on activated cellulose adsorbent surface at pH 7 has a similarity with cellulose-MBT adsorbent. This was due to the fact that at pH 7, the adsorbent has reached a stable maximum binding capability as reported by Yin et al [25] and Aydin et al [28].…”

“…At lower pH values, the H + ions compete with the metal ions for the exching sites in the adsorbent and the binding of Cu(II) ion with active site on the adsorbent surface was very low. When the pH increases, the concentration H + ions decreases, the binding of Cu(II) ion with active site on the adsorbent surface was very high [28]. The percentage of Cu(II) ion adsorbed at active site on activated cellulose adsorbent surface at pH 7 has a similarity with cellulose-MBT adsorbent.…”

“…(mg/g) expresses the AR114 amount that each unit adsorbent adsorbs in the equilibrium condition, (mg/L) stands for the AR114 concentration that remains in the solution after the adsorption when the equilibrium condition is reached, (L/mg) is the equilibrium constant, and max expresses the adsorbate amount (mg/g) that is needed for single-layered form [25]. Langmuir equation is linearized as follows:…”
