One-step facile synthesis of mesoporous graphene/Fe3O4/chitosan nanocomposite and its adsorption capacity for a textile dye

TL;DR: In this article, a hierarchical mesoporous graphene-Fe 3 O 4 @chitosan hybrid was prepared by a one-step facile solvothermal method, and the results showed that the incorporation of Fe 3 o 4 in the nanocomposite was confirmed by FT-IR and XRD.

Green-assembly of three-dimensional porous graphene hydrogels for efficient removal of organic dyes

TL;DR: A facile and straightforward green-assembly approach was developed for preparation of nitrogen and sulphur co-doped three-dimensional graphene hydrogels (N/S-GHs) with the assistance of glutathione, providing new insight for the green- assembly of 3D porous nanomaterials as adsorbent and their promising applications in water treatment.

Use of banana trunk waste as activated carbon in scavenging methylene blue dye: Kinetic, thermodynamic, and isotherm studies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used activated carbon (BTAC) derived from the banana trunk to scavenge the methylene blue (MB) dye from synthetic dye solution and reached equilibrium within 20 minutes of contact time.

Effective removal of dyes from aqueous solution using ultrafine silk fibroin powder

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used ultrafine silk fibroin powder as low-cost adsorbent to remove dyes in the printing and dyeing wastewater, and showed that the silk powder with an average diameter of 3.8μm was dominant in β-sheet structure.

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.
