In the current research work, the authors proposed a list of tactics to eliminate Cr (VI) with the help of pig bone biochar. The Cr (VI) was adsorbed in batches onto pig bone biochar to scrutinize the adsorption data. The studies determine the impact of adsorption dose, pH, and concentration. From the results, it was inferred that the optimum pH level was 7 for the removal of metal. The study calculated the adsorption isotherms in terms of affinity and adsorption capacity by leveraging Temkin, Langmuir, and Freundlich equations. According to the reports, the Langmuir model is suitable for the adsorption data, followed by Temkin and Freundlich equations. In this model, rapid adsorption kinetic rates were observed, whereas the equilibrium state was achieved after two hours. There seems to be a perfect collation between the kinetic adsorption data and the pseudo-second-order equation. The researchers determined both Lagergren and Ho'sconstants. When biochar was characterized with SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray spectrometer), and FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer), it was revealed that the Cr (VI) ions interacted with the isolated aggregates formed on the biosorbent surface. From the results, it can be understood that the pig bone biochar can be effectively used to eliminate chromium ions from an aqueous solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
