    • Adsorptive Removal of Rhodamine B Dye from Aqueous Solutions Using Mineral Materials as Low-Cost Adsorbents
    Authors: Kuśmierek, Krzysztof; Fronczyk, Joanna; Świątkowski, Andrzej;  Advisor: -;  Co-Author: - (2023)

    In this work, the potential adsorption abilities of mineral materials such as zeolite (Ze), halloysite (Ha), chalcedonite (Ch), and Devonian sand (DS) used as low-cost resources for the removal of Rhodamine B (RhB) from aqueous solutions were investigated in batch conditions. Adsorption kinetics and equilibrium and the effect of solution reaction (pH) were studied. Adsorption kinetic data were analyzed using two kinetic models: pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order models. Adsorption kinetics was better represented by the pseudo-second-order model. Equilibrium data were analyzed by the Freundlich, Langmuir, and Sips isotherms.
