摘要:
The present study reports the use of Black Cumin Seed as a non-conventional adsorbent for the removal of Cu2+ from aqueous solution. The various operational parameters such as contact time, pH, concentration, surfactant, and ionic strength have been investigated. The adsorbent was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and SEM analysis. The optimum equilibrium time and pH was found to be 30min and 6, respectively. The adsorption data was best fitted by pseudo-second order kinetic whereas the adsorption isotherm was best described by Freundlich model. The process was found to be spontaneous and endothermic in nature. The activation energy was also determined and the process was found to be chemisorptions in nature. Ninety-five percent of the adsorbed Cu2+ ion could be desorbed by 0.1N HCl solution and the spent adsorbent can be reused up to five times.
