Abstract

The use of cheap, efficient and environmentally
friendly adsorbents has served as an alternative source of carob in order to
remove dye-stuffs from waste water. This study has researched the potential use
of carob powder as alternative adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue from
wastewater. Experiment parameters pH, ultrasonic frequency, particle size,
contact time, temperature and initial concentration of dissolved methylene blue
(MB) dye were investigated. Thereafter, Box-Behnken design experiment was
applied the adsorption experiments. The equilibrium time was 267.63min for
methelene blue dye. The results showed that physisorption seemed to play a
major role in the adsorption process. 
The adsorption process of methylene blue on carob powder was found to
rate of adsorption decreases with increasing temperature and the process
exothermic. Regression analysis results demonstrated that is good for the
experimental data to the non-linear model with correlation coefficients of (R²)
value of 0.8899 and 0.9830. The maximum adsorption value was determined as
256,4355 mg/g. This result appears to be important when compared with other
studies reported in the literature. According to the results of the study was
observed carob bean can be used as an alternative adsorbent.

Atık Suyunun Temizlenmesi İçin Çevre Dostu Yeni Adsorbent Olarak KeçiboynuzuTozunun Kullanılarak Metilen Mavi Boyasının Adsorpsiyon Davranışı: Tepki Yüzey Metodolojisiyle Optimizasyon

Abstract

Ucuz, verimli ve çevre dostu
adsorbanların kullanımı, atık sudan boya maddelerini çıkarmak için alternatif
bir keçiboynuzu kaynağı olarak hizmet etmiştir. Bu çalışma, atık sudan metilen
mavisi çıkarılması için alternatif bir adsorban olarak keçiboynuzu tozunun
potansiyel kullanımını araştırmıştır. Deney parametreleri pH, ultrasonik
frekans, partikül boyutu, temas süresi, sıcaklık ve çözünmüş metilen mavisi
(MB) boyasının başlangıç konsantrasyonu incelenmiştir. Daha sonra, Box-Behnken
tasarım deneyi adsorpsiyon deneylerine uygulandı. Denge zamanı, metali mavi
boya için 267.63 dk. Sonuçlar, fiziksel adsorpsiyon sürecinde önemli bir rol
oynadığını gösterdi. Metilen mavisinin keçiboynuzu tozu üzerindeki adsorpsiyon
sürecinin, artan sıcaklık ve ekzotermik proses ile adsorpsiyon oranlarında
azalma olduğu bulunmuştur. Regresyon analizi sonuçları, deneysel veriler için
doğrusal olmayan modele (R2) 0.8899 ve 0.9830 arasındaki korelasyon katsayıları
için iyi olduğunu göstermiştir. Maksimum adsorpsiyon değeri 256.4355 mg/g
olarak belirlendi. Bu sonuç literatürde bildirilen diğer çalışmalarla
karşılaştırıldığında önemli olduğu görülmüştür. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre,
keçiboynuzu tozunun alternatif bir adsorban olarak kullanılabileceği
gözlenmiştir.
