REMOVAL OF Pb(II) IONS AND MALACHITE GREEN DYE FROM WASTEWATER BY ACTIVATED CARBON PRODUCED FROM LEMON PEEL

Abstract: In the present study, a high-surface area activated carbon was prepared by chemical activation of lemon peel with H 3 PO 4 as the active agent. Then, the adsorption behavior of Malachite green dye and Pb(II) ions on the produced activated carbon was studied. Batch process was employed for sorption kinetics and equilibrium studies. Experimental data were fitted to various isotherm models. According to the Langmuir model, the maximum adsorption capacities of Malachite green dye and Pb(II) ions were found to be 6… Show more

“…While the surface area of AC produced from LP at 500 0 C in the presence of nitrogen gas was found to be 1158 m 2 /gr, Pb and Malachite green dye removal were made with this AC at room temperature. and removal efficiencies of 90.91 mg/g in Pb and 66.67 mg/g in dye were obtained from the obtained AC (Mohammadi et al 2014). Reactive blue 49 dye was removed with AC obtained from LP at 300 0 C and the approximate removal efficiency was calculated as 50mg/g (Taifi et al 2022).…”
