Removal of an azo-metal complex textile dye from colored aqueous solutions using an agro-residue

TL;DR: In this article, pine leaves were used as a biosorbent for the removal of acid yellow 220 (AY 220) dye from aqueous solutions, and the results indicated that the sorption system was spontaneous, endothermic and physical process.

Solar Light-Irradiated Photocatalytic Degradation of Model Dyes and Industrial Dyes by a Magnetic CoFe2O4-gC3N4 S-Scheme Heterojunction Photocatalyst.

TL;DR: Magnetic CoFe2O4-50gC3N4 nanocomposites were successfully synthesized, and their photocatalytic activities toward the decomposition of model synthetic dyes (e.g., methylene blue, methyl orange, and Congo red) in the presence of H2O2 were evaluated under simulated solar light irradiation as discussed by the authors.

Oxidized multiwalled carbon nanotubes as adsorbent for the removal of manganese from aqueous solution

TL;DR: Experimental results showed that MWCNT is an excellent manganese adsorbent, and the results indicate that second-order kinetics model was well suitable to model the kinetic adsorption ofManganese.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel chitosan-vanadium-titanium-magnetite composite as a superior adsorbent for organic dyes in wastewater.

TL;DR: The CS-VTM proved to be a promising and environmentally friendly adsorbent for the highly efficient and effective removal of organic dyes among the comparable sorbents studied to date.
