Biodegradation of methylene blue dye in a batch and continuous mode using biochar as packing media.

TL;DR: The best microbial species for metabolizing dye molecules was selected amongst the isolated bacterial populations by conducting methylene blue (MB) batch degradation studies with the bacterial strains using NaCl‐yeast as a nutrient medium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of adsorption process for effective removal of emerging contaminants from water and wastewater.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the effectiveness of the adsorption mechanism as an effective approach for treating emerging contaminants and compared both natural and man-made adsorbents for the separation of contaminants.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
