Optimization of simultaneous ultrasound assisted toxic dyes adsorption conditions from single and multi-components using central composite design: Application of derivative spectrophotometry and evaluation of the kinetics and isotherms.
Present study is devoted on the efficient application of Sn (O, S)-NPs -AC for simultaneous sonicated accelerated adsorption of some dyes from single and multi-components systems. Sn (O, S) nanoparticles characterization by FESEM, EDX, EDX mapping and XRD revel its nano size structure with high purity of good crystallinity. Present adsorbent due to its nano spherical shape particles with approximate diameter of 40-60nm seems to be highly effective in this regard. The effects of five variables viz. pH (3.5-9.5), 0.010-0.028g of adsorbent and 0.5-6.5min mixing by sonication is good and practical conditions for well and expected adsorption of MB and CV over concentration range of 3-15mgL-1. Combination of response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design (CCD) and subsequent of analysis of variance (ANOVA) and t-test statistics were used to test the significance of the independent variables and their interactions. Regression analysis reveal that experimental data with high repeatability and efficiency well represented by second-order polynomial model with coefficient of determination value of 0.9988 and 0.9976 for MB and CV, respectively following conditions like pH 8.0, 0.016g adsorbent, 15mgL-1 of both dyes 4min sonication time is proportional with achievement of experimental removal percentage of 99.80% of MB and 99.87% of CV in batch experiment. Evaluation and estimation of adsorption data with Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm well justify the results based on their correlation coefficient and error analysis confirm that Langmuir model is good model with adsorption capacity of 109.17 and 115.34mgg-1 in single system and 95.69 and 102.99mgg-1 in binary system for MB and CV, respectively. MB and CV kinetic and rate of adsorption well fitted by pseudo-second order equation both in single and binary systems and experimental results denote more and favorable adsorption of CV than respective value in single system. The pseudo-second-order rate constant k2 in binary system larger than single system.
