Applicability of gypsum in selective removal of anionic dye molecules from aqueous medium

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe how selectively anionic organic molecules could be removed from aqueous medium using naturally available gypsum (GS) adsorbent, which shows strong interactions with anionic dye molecules while it does not show any affinity towards cationic dye molecules.

Thermodynamic parameters for adsorption equilibrium of methylene blue from aqueous solutions with low-cost adsorbents

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors deal with thermodynamic parameters published for the adsorption of methylene blue (MB) on different low-cost adsorbents and compare the enthalpy change (ΔH°) and entropy change(ΔS°) for two groups of inorganic and natural or lignocellulosic adorbents.

Gum Arabic-Coated Magnetic Nanoparticles for Methylene Blue Removal

TL;DR: In this paper, a fast and simple method for removal and recovery of methylene blue dye (MB) from aqueous solutions by using the synthesised magnetic nanoparticles modified with gum arabic as adsorbent was reported.

Sorption Studies on the Removal of Industrial Dye Aniline Yellow From Aqueous Solution Using Surfactant Modified Iron Filings

TL;DR: Ngwu et al. as mentioned in this paper used SDS-coated iron filings as an anionic surfactant to remove aniline yellow from aqueous solutions and found that the adsorption process was pH-dependent.

Kinetics of Adsorption on Carbon from Solution

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the rate of adsorption of persistent organic compounds on granular carbon is quite low and the rate is partially a function of the pore size distribution of the adsorbent, of the molecular size and configuration of the solute, and of the relative electrokinetic properties of adsorbate and adsorbents.

Sorption of dye from aqueous solution by peat

TL;DR: In this paper, the sorption of two dyes, namely Basic Blue 69 and Acid Blue 25 onto peat has been studied in terms of pseudo-second order and first order mechanisms for chemical sorption as well as an intraparticle diffusion mechanism process.

Use of cellulose-based wastes for adsorption of dyes from aqueous solutions.

TL;DR: Based on the adsorption capacity, it was shown that banana peel was more effective than orange peel and intraparticle diffusion of dyes within the particle was identified to be rate limiting.
