This research targets to adsorb the organic dye (methylene blue, MB) from aqueous media using natural Iraqi bentonite clay (NIBC). Several analytical methods (e.g., XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDX, XRF, pHpzc, and BET) analysis were conducted to inspect the physicochemical characteristics of the NIBC. Adsorption key variables, including dosage of adsorbent (0.02–0.1 g), pH (2–10), and initial concentrations (10–150 mg/L) were inspected for determining their impacts on MB dye removal. The Redlich-Peterson isotherm demonstrated the best account for the equilibrium adsorption of MB. The NIBC's highest adsorption capacity (qmax) for MB was 256 mg/g. The kinetics of the adsorption of MB by NIBC matched the pseudo-second-order model. This study demonstrates that the NIBC could be utilized to successfully remove MB from aqueous environments. |
