Blighia sapida Waste Biochar in Batch and Fixed-Bed Adsorption of Chloroquine Phosphate: Efficacy Validation Using Artificial Neural Networks.

ABSTRACT: The present study investigated the potency of biochar prepared from Blighia sapida seedpods (BSSPs) in the uptake of chloroquine phosphate (CQP) from single-component batch and multicomponent fixed-bed adsorption systems. BSSPs presented a highly porous structure with a BET surface area of 1122.05 m²/g, to which adsorption efficiency correlated. The Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm energy was obtained as 129.09 kJ/mol, confirming the chemisorption nature of the BSSP-CQP adsorption system. The efficiency of the artificial neural network (ANN) was evaluated using the lowest mean square error (MSE = 7.27) and highest correlation coefficient (R² = 0.9910). A good agreement between the experimental results and the ANN-predicted data indicated the efficiency of the model. The percentage removal of 95.78% obtained for the column adsorption studies indicated the effectiveness of BSSPs in a multicomponent system. The mechanism of the interaction proceeded via hydrogen bonding and electrostatic attraction. This was confirmed by the high desorption efficiency (69.11%) with a HCl eluent. The degree of reversibility was found to be 2.95, indicating the reusability potential of BSSPs. BSSPs are therefore considered multilayered adsorbents with potential applications in pharmaceutical wastewater treatment.

Project description:Pine needle litter in Himalayan forests leads to forest fires, ground water recharge inhibition, soil acidification and contamination, and stops the growth of grass and plants. This study provides a possible solution for pine needle litter problem by converting it to biochar. Pine needle litter lying on the ground for approximately a month was collected from the Himalayan region. The pine needle litter biochars were generated using slow pyrolysis (residence time, 30 min; heating rate, 10 °C/min) at 350, 450, 550, 650, and 750 °C. Finally, pine needle litter biochar prepared at 550 °C (PNBC550) was selected for sorptive removal of aqueous lead both in batch and column studies. The PNBC550 was characterized for proximate and elemental compositions, crystallinity, surface area, morphology, and functional groups. A BET surface area of 230.9 m2/g was obtained for PNBC550. Batch sorption studies were carried out to study (1) the adsorption versus pH studies (at pH 2 to 7), (2) isotherms (at 10, 25, and 35 °C) to evaluate the temperature effect on the sorption efficiency, and (3) kinetics to reveal the effect of time, adsorbent dose, and initial concentration on the reaction rate. Increasing pyrolysis temperature raised lead sorption up to 550 °C. Lead adsorption increased considerably as pH rose from 2 to a maximum adsorption around pH 5 and above. The sorption data were fitted using different isotherm models and kinetic equations. The Langmuir adsorption capacity increased from 22.93 mg/g at 10 °C to 40.43 mg/g at 35 °C, showing that adsorption was endothermic. Fixed-bed studies were conducted at room temperature with an initial lead concentration of 7.85 mg/L and 4.0 g of PNBC550 at initial pH 5.0 and a flow rate of 3 mL/min. Desorption studies conducted under the same experimental conditions found about 90-93% lead recovery. Development of high-efficiency biochars for lead remediation provides a sustainable solution for the Himalayan pine needle litter problem. The biochars also possess the possible potential for aqueous removal of other metal cations.

Project description:The efficient removal of toxic metals ions from chemical industry wastewater is considered problematic due to the existence of pollutants as mixtures in the aqueous matrix, thus development of advanced and effective treatment method has been identified as a panacea to the lingering problems of heavy metal pollution. In this study, KIAgNPs decorated MWCNTs nano adsorbent was developed using combination of green chemistry protocol and chemical vapor deposition techniques and subsequently characterized using UV-Vis, HRTEM, HRSEM, XRD, FTIR and XPS. The adsorptive efficiency of MWCNTs-KIAgNPs for the removal of Cr(VI), Ni(II), Fe(II), Cd(II) and physico-chemical parameters like pH, TDS, COD, BOD, nitrates, sulphates, chlorides and phosphates from chemical industrial wastewater was examined in both batch and fixed bed systems. The result exhibited successful deposition of KIAgNPs on the surface of MWCNTs as confirmed by the microstructures, morphology, crystalline nature, functional groups and elemental characteristics of the MWCNTs-KIAgNPs. Optimum batch adsorption parameters include; pH (3 for Cr(VI) and 6 for Ni(II), Fe(II) and Cd(II) ions), contact time (60 min), adsorbent dosage (40 mg) and temperature (318 K). The binding capacities were obtained as follows; Cr6+ (229.540 mg/g), Ni2+ (174.784 mg/g), Fe2+ (149.552) and Cd2+ (121.026 mg/g), respectively. Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second order kinetic model best described the experimental data in batch adsorption, while the thermodynamic parameters validated the chemisorption and endothermic nature of the adsorption process. In continuous adsorption, the metal ions were effectively removed at low metal influent concentration, low flow rate and high bed depth, whereby the experimental data were designated by Thomas model. The high physico-chemical parameters in the wastewater were successfully treated in both batch and fixed bed systems to fall within WHO permissible concentrations. The adsorption/desorption study illustrated over 80% metal removal by MWCNTs-KIAgNPs even after 8th adsorption cycle. This study demonstrated excellent performance of MWCNTs-KIAgNPs for chemical industry wastewater treatment.
