Removal of crystal violet dye by a novel adsorbent derived from waste active sludge used in wastewater treatment

Abstract: This study dealt with preparation of the activated carbon derived from active sludge as an adsorbent for the adsorption of crystal violet (CV) from aqueous solution. The waste active sludge was activated chemically with KOH and carbonized to get activated carbon with a large surface area and a high porosity. The activated carbon was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) instrument, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Adsorption of CV from aqueous solu… Show more

“…Furthermore, higher metal concentration provided increase in driving force of the concentration gradient to overwhelm all mass transfer resistance of Cr(VI) ions between liquid and solid phases. Consequently, the probability of collision between the adsorbate and adsorbent active sites increase and thus leading to higher Cr(VI) uptake [39,40]. These observations are consistent with previous reports [41,42].…”

“…A specified amount of the adsorbent was added to a series of 100 cm 3 of the Cr(VI) solution of fixed concentration (150 mg dm -3 ). The contents were agitated for different time intervals (20,40,60,80, 100, 120, 180 and 240 min) under room temperature (30 ± 2 °C). The mixture after each time interval were centrifuged immediately and subjected to analysis.…”

“…The positive value of the entropy change implies the easiness of the adsorbate removal by the adsorbent and that the adsorption phenomenon is entropy-controlled rather than enthalpy-controlled (40). Similar outcome in thermodynamics has been reported for the adsorption of crystal violet using activated carbon prepared from waste active sludge (41).…”

“…Adsorption is either exclusively controlled by the rate of uptake of adsorbate on adsorbent or combination of rate [30,50,59]. Hence, the mechanism and rate of adsorption were studied for the adsorption of MO on CC, FCC and CCNC.…”
