Popis: In order to remove and reuse the ecotoxic dye Eriochrome black T (EBT) from dyeing wastewater, we used a process called cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-assisted foam fractionation. By optimizing this process with response surface methodology, we achieved an enrichment ratio of 110.3 ± 3.8 and a recovery rate of 99.1 ± 0.3%. Next, we prepared composite particles by adding β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) to the foamate obtained through foam fractionation. These particles had an average diameter of 80.9 μm, an irregular shape, and a specific surface area of 0.15 m2/g. Using these β-CD-CTAB-EBT particles, we were able to effectively remove trace amounts of Cu2+ ions (4 mg/L) from the wastewater. The adsorption of these ions followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and Langmuir isotherm models, and the maximal adsorption capacities at different temperatures were 141.4 mg/g at 298.15 K, 143.1 mg/g at 308.15 K, and 144.5 mg/g at 318.15 K. Thermodynamic analysis showed that the mechanism of Cu2+ removal via β-CD-CTAB-EBT was spontaneous and endothermic physisorption. Under the optimized conditions, we achieved a removal ratio of 95.3 ± 3.0% for Cu2+ ions, and the adsorption capacity remained at 78.3% after four reuse cycles. Overall, these results demonstrate the potential of β-CD-CTAB-EBT particles for the recovery and reuse of EBT in dyeing wastewater.
