| Summary: | This batch adsorption study aimed to compare the adsorption of indigosol yellow dye
using chitosan and acid-treated shrimp shell waste. This batch experiment consists of
the experiments on the effect of pH, adsorbent dose, contact time and initial dye
concentration to the color removal efficiency. From the study of the effect of pH, it
was found that color removal best occurred at low pH which is 3, while for the effect
of adsorbent dose, it was found that the color removal efficiency is directly
proportional to adsorbent dose. Equilibrium time for both adsorbents were achieved
on the same time which is at 360 minutes or 6 hours. Equilibrium data were fitted to
the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin Radushkevich (D-R) isotherm equations and
the equilibrium data were found to be best well represented by the Langmuir
isotherm equation rather than two others isotherms used. The compatibility of the
experimental data with the Langmuir isotherm model indicates that the adsorption
process takes place physically in the form of a single layer (monolayer). The
maximum adsorption capacity of chitosan and modified shrimp shell waste for
indigosol yellow adsorption was found to be 169.49 mg/g and 33.90 mg/g
respectively. RL numbers were in the range of 0-1 explain that the adsorption process
is favorable. The adsorption data were analyzed using pseudo-first-order, pseudosecond-
order and intraparticle diffusion kinetic models and the adsorption kinetics
was found to follow a pseudo-second-order kinetic model for both adsorbents,
therefore for the whole adsorption process, chemisorption might be the rate-limiting
step that controls these adsorption processes. The adsorption mechanism of indigosol
yellow dye onto chitosan is the electrostatic interaction between the sufonate group
R-SO3
- from the dye with the NH3
+ which protonated amine group NH2 of chitosan. |
