Popis: | The adsorption of Acid Alizarin Black (AAB) dye (C.I. 21725) on zinc oxide was investigated in this study. The adsorption was carried out under different operating conditions. The operating conditions were contact time, adsorbent dosage (10, 30, 50, 70 and 100 mg), initial dye concentration (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 mg/L), the pH of the solution (2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 12) and temperature (20, 30, 40, 50 and 60°C). The remo val percentage of dye on ZnO decreases from 67% to 54% with increase in initial dye concentration from 10 to 70 mg/L, respectively. It was found that the increasing of ZnO dosage enhanced the dye removal. The increasing of temperature insignificantly enhanced the removal of dye. The study reports that the best pH of solution for the adsorption of AAB on ZnO were 7 and 8. The adsorption data have been analysed using Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin. It is indicated that the adsorption of dye onto ZnO was endothermic. The uptake process of AAB obeyed the pseudo second order kinetic expression. |
